The only way is by going down to 4.2.2 and installing a stock modified kk Rom for your device, some of the people who work on rooting the device have not received the kk update and so have not gone into trying to root it(it's easier to test on ones own device than getting people to try for you)

Phone is Rooted..
I have XPOSED FRAMEWORK.. using few modules.
I DO NOT HAVE ANY RECOVERIES. I am USING STOCK.
Should i update my phone and take the kitkat OTA?
Uninstalling Xposed framework and taking the updates will be ok?
And hoping it will be possible to root again after taking the updates( assuming that i will lose my current root)..
Also hoping installing Xposed after new update is possible.
You will have to remove xposed/modules and if you removed any bloat then it needs to be put back, since you have stock recovery you should be able to ota and root can sometimes survive ota if it doesn't then you should still be able to root using ioroot25

So I stayed away from Lollipop due to silent mode being gone. Finally updated and sure enough hate the sounds modes. I saw there was an exposed module to bring back KitKat silent mode.
Been doing tons of research on this forum and other websites and can't find a clear answer. Does exposed work on the Verizon S5 on Lollipop?
Some sites say at first it didn't but it was then updated..then other sites say even the update won't work on touchwiz ROMS? Idk if that just means stock VZW ROMS or even custom touchwiz ROMS?? Very confusing
If anyone knows please let me know. Also if it WILL work are there instructions for this phone specifically. Any Xposed instructions I find mention booting to a customer recovery...and then I remembered hearing that safestrap doesn't work on Lollipop so idk

I've done many clean install of kitkat previously.. Every time I switch roms so I know my phone is always running the best it can. Did the same when installing lollipop last night..full charge over night and man is this battery life bad compared to kit kat..didn't use my phone much this morning and just used it for an hour or so now and I'm at 60%

Xposed afaik currently unofficially works with certain deodexed touchwiz roms
i'm using this version of xposed and it works fine. You do need to use FlashFire to flash the zip though give it a try just install the app then flash the zip.

Firmware has to be deodexed?

Yes. Samsung has done some of their own tinkering with ART on lollipop which makes Xposed cause a bootloop. The unofficial version only works on Deodexed versions.
@aholeinthewor1d
If you want to use Xposed on TW Lollipop, you can use this ROM. Then you can go here to install Xposed.
Also, Safestrap DOES work on Lollipop, you just have to use a KitKat kernel to access it. This app/thread makes accessing Safestrap on Lollipop extremely easy. No need for a computer.
Long time lurker... here goes my first post, be gentle!
I bought my s5 and rooted it a long time ago but I haven't kept up it up to date. I'm still on 4.4.2 and I think it is finally time to try 5.0
Since I'm so out of date, I want to make sure I update my phone without bricking it or losing xposed framework.
My current device's system info:
Andriod Version: 4.4.2
Build: ANCG
Kernal: 3.4.0-964333
Bootloader: G900VVRU1ANCG
Rooted
Stock ROM
Safestrap NOT installed
Xposed framework installed with these modules:
Greenify
Xprivacy
Wanam Xposed
Downloads 2SD
With such an out of date phone, is it safe to just follow the instructions in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...w-to-update-to-g900voe1-5-0-keeproot-t3149784
Are there any known issues on Lollipop with xposed or any of the modules I use?
I think lollipop allows apps to access the SD card again, so I won't need the downloads 2SD module anymore, right?
I have read mixed reports of Xprivacy working on 5.0, if there is anyone using it on the Verizon S5, how's it working for you?
Thanks!

If you decide to go to lollipop any thing over bod5 cannot be rooted there are some decent roms that are flashable
roms via safestrap.

But why is rooted bod5 lollipop bad? Besides not being able to upgrade to newer versions of lollipop, did you have a bad experience with bod5?
I'm ok with not being able to upgrade further. I stayed with 4.4.2 for a long time, I have no problem staying on bod5 for awhile.. Unless there are other good reasons why lollipop Itself is not worth upgrading to.

Bog5 is the latest now I guess it was to fix stage fright but you could choose the one to your liking not much development for bod5 anymore.

You can install rooted OG5 roms. I'm running a stock deodexed OG5 build (rooted) and it's pretty smooth.
With such an out of date phone, is it safe to just follow the instructions in this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/veri...proot-t3149784
If you want xposed on OG5, no. It needs a deodexed rom and that OG5 is odexed. You can use this one if you want xposed on OG5: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/vzwstock-based-tw-rom-t3178953
Are there any known issues on Lollipop with xposed or any of the modules I use?
Xposed runs but it needs a special version (just do a google search for samsung xposed lollipop). Whenever I run greenify on xposed it causes bootloops for me, but I think it might work fine for some people. Wanam xposed has a special version for lollipop so make sure to switch to that.
I think lollipop allows apps to access the SD card again, so I won't need the downloads 2SD module anymore, right?
I don't think you need it, but when you install check to see if it works. You can always downgrade.
I have read mixed reports of Xprivacy working on 5.0, if there is anyone using it on the Verizon S5, how's it working for you?
It worked for me when I ran it a few months ago, but if the reports are mixed take my success with a grain of salt.

Thank you for actually answering my questions!!
I will attempt OG5 using a deodexed version so I can install the samsung lollipop xposed. Hope I don't screw it up :-/ I've rooted and played around with a few phones before with no problems, but the last time I messed with a phone was over a year ago so I'm pretty rusty.
cheers!
edit: To use the deodexed version of OG5, did you use the muniz_ri method with FireFlash and just replace the muniz_ri ROM with the deodexed ROM? Or did you follow the instructions in this thread? Or something completly different?
Btw I'm still on 4.4.2 NCG but I have installed SS
Since you are at NCG already I think you can start with rooted odex stock. You should flash muniz_ri rooted odex stock with flashfire, it ll full wipe for default also. After that you 100% can flash any G900V lollipop rom you want with flashfire or safestrap, I choosed FF for myself. I am not sure, maybe you can flash deodex right away, but after some lurked and questions I personally did as described in first sentence. Don't forget to do backup, samsung for example. I was in your position not so much time ago.
i second that lollipop is terrible. go to 4.4.4 and stay. look in page 2 or 3 of android development for ricks rom and flash that, its the best kitkat rom and it just work way better than 5.0
Current Specs:
Note 4 N910C Flashed with N910CXXU2DPCB (Marshmallow) ROM
Bootloader: TWRP V3.0.0.0
Rooted with SuperSU V2.71
Busy Box installed and updated to latest
I'm currently unable to move normal apps over to system apps - as soon as the app is transferred via either an app like Luckypatcher, System app converter or any other commercially available play store app, it disappears off the launcher screen. When I try to install the apps directly via an app like System apps installer it gives me an error saying that is unable to read/write to system. When doing a manual transfer to the system/apps folder and setting the permissions to 644 it doesn't seem to install to the system and causes the phone to go into a bootloop if the permissions are set differently. The files some times appear in the system/apps folder and sometimes not when using standard transfer apps.
It also loses root at certain periods and needs a restart and some apps seems do not detect busy box even thought its installed.
I have re flashed the phone numerous times with either a complete fresh flash to a flash over from 5.1.1.
When doing the same root structure on 5.1.1 everything works 100%.
Is any one else experiencing this or have any way around the problems ? I'm not sure where to start looking as it seems to be a combination of possibilities or just that the guys like chainfire has caught up with the changes on the N910C 6.0.1 system and ironed out all the kinks yet ?
Same problem for me. Did you get a solution?
My note 4 unrooted itself. Happened to anyone?

Maybe Samsung had a silent update for the N910C or something.
EDIT: Guys, I installed Hani's H-Vitamin kernel for 6.0.1 and root works again for me. Thought you might want to know. I think we're losing Root on Stock due to an updated SE-Linux policy which overwrites patches made by SuperSu to work on an enforcing kernel, but using this custom kernel on Stock seems to solve the issue.

I just the

My SM-N910C running stock 6.0.1 also lost root access today; re-running the latest CF-Auto-Root a couple times didn't work for me.
I fixed it by installing the H-Vitamin Custom Kernel. Proper root access.

Please keep us updated on the stability of the kernel..I'm always a bit skeptical when it comes to customer kernels.:fingers-crossed::good:
