I also want
1. root
2. Compatible xposed
3. Compatible gravity box
And
Hopes on fully functional AOSP 6
No compatible Xposed at this time. Therefore you can't use gravity box.

i want to root my huawei gr5 , could anyone help me with that ?
thanks in advance .
If you use KII-L22(GR5 has variant KII-L21,22,24) , SImply Unlock bootloader, Install TWRP then install SuperSU same as KIW-L21/22/24.
Since I use KII-L22, I can't say TWRP works KII-L21,24.
You can find TWRP thread, and bootloader unlock thread. Read it.

Thanks For the conformation of
1. Unlock boot loader
2. Flash TWRP Recovery
3. Install SuperSU
On KII-L22
I use KII-L21 and still did not get the boot loader unlock code as english site is always busy and chinese site asks to wait for two weeks.
Once I get the unlock code I will try this on my L21. If there is anyone with unlocked KII-L21 please try and confirm the success.
@ssrnsrsr
1. In which web site you managed to obtain the unlock code?
2. Can you give it a try to flash CM 12.1 alpha released for 5X to see if it is compatible with gr5 ?

I use Chinese one. Form layout is same both English and Chinese.
In TWRP thread, reason of " wait 14 days" is talked. Support for KII-L variant is just started also.
So you had better to read and stick that for more information.

Just for verification: is this right that the TWRP android_device_huawei_kiwi for the Huawei Honor 5X works with the KII-L22 variant of the GR 5?

I don't know what is Huawei Gr5 and what are the differences with Honor 5x KIW-21 which I own.
I got my phone unlocked and I flashed TWRP 2.27 successfully.

So I don't also know if that does respond to your question... ^^ :D
