Right now,there is no way to root it directly.The only way to gain root is to flash a pre-rooted .zip via recovery!
Recovery is not installed on my device. Warnings when installing:

First,restart ya computer,your adb has some kind of issue
Second,the only thing u can do is revert back to the 5.0.2 firmware,root it and install a recovery.
Third,download a pre-rooted 5.1.1 firmware then flash it via the recovery u installed

Unable to Flash any mod through recovery.

Now I've corrected the naming mistake.It's for C6602.



The recovery works fine now :good:
Sir, I am not able to figure out how you fixed the error "unable to set up expected mounts for install ".
This error shows up everytime i try to flash any mod which i previously used on 5.0 lollipop like xposed installer, call recorder etc.
I am unable to flash through both internal storage and sd card. I have a locked bootloader.I am on customised US 5.1.1. c6602.
Any help would be appreciated.:confused:

Before flashing this,which firmware were u on?for C6602 or C6603?
For xposed,u have to use the one for 5.1.1 not the one you were using before!

Before flashing 5.1.1 i was on 5.0.
I am now on 5.1.1., c6602.
I cannot flash anything, not even the bootanimation mod, call recording mod,
It displays the error as i mentioned above. i.e. "failed to set up expected mounts for install".

The people that have encountered your error have an unlocked bootloader but for for you i don't why you are having that error
Try to flash the rom again.maybe something went wrong.And make the necessary wipes!
Let me know if it works :D

3.From the source folder in the top navigate to the folder where you downloaded the FTF file and press OK.

Now wait until a window prompts asking you to plug your phone with USB cable.
Power off your device.
Press the volume down button and plug the USB cable, The update should begin...
Wait until the update is completed, Unplug the USB cable and reboot your device.
The first boot should take some time...

So far the only way to have root is to flash a pre-rooted 5.1.1 rom.
Since you are already on the 5.1.1 firmware,you'll have to downgrade to the 5.0.2 firmware,root it(the easiest way is to use Kingroot),install recovery(i recommend the XZDualrecovery),download the pre-rooted 5.1.1 rom and flash it via the new recovery u installed.

It's not supposed to be a zip file.it's supposed to be a ftf file.
Unzip it and if u get ala ftf file then that's the correct one. If not,then u hav to find the correct file
