Downgrade from lollipop to kt after bootloader update.

Hello guys!
Just a question. A friend has a n9500 with custom rom lollipop 5.0 based on xxugbob6 (audax L)
Now he needs to use some exposed modules and so he wants to downgrade to any version of android 4.3.x or similar.
I know that after bootloader update (lollipop) it's impossibile turn back to kitkat or JB ones, isn't it?
Can anyone help me linking a guide or a complete rom (for deep clean) to do this, if it is possible?
Thanks a lot

Download 1st and 3rd files from Xposed for Lollipop thread by rovo89.
Download the 2nd file from Xposed for Touchwiz Lollipop by arter97.
Flash the zip from recovery i.e. TWRP
Then install the apk.
You can find these threads in Xposed forum

If you dont have a recovery. Visit twrp.me and select your device and download the TAR file and flash it via ODIN (in download mode). Instructions will be given there.
After installing recovery. Go for Xposed.
Also I'll recommend to Wipe (only Cache and Dalvik) in recovery after installing the Xposed zip file

There is a guide somewhere about deodexing just a few apps for xposed, not the whole rom.

First of all, we need more information about your device:
- what Android version?
- Stock ROM or custom ROM?
First thing you'll need is a custom recovery (TWRP recommended). Since Android Lollipop, Xposed can only being installed by flashing it via recovery.
For Samsung stock ROM (TouchWiz-based), you will need a special version of Xposed, this one from here. Alternatively, you could use topjohnwu's systemless Xposed from here if you like.
If you are running a custom ROM such as CM (which is not based on TouchWiz), you can use the official Xposed from here (Android Lollipop) or here (Android Marshmallow).
Installation instructions are given in each thread, so in case you have further questions, please ask for help in the corresponding tread.

Just go to the above linked thread by wanam. All required information can be found there. By the way, your CPU is ARM-v7, so you need the "ARM" version, not the "ARM64" version.
For further questions, please use wanam's thread.

Is this file ok with my device or not ???

Basically, yes. But there is a newer version (v86.1) available. Use this one. And don't forget to make a complete backup with TWRP before flashing Xposed. And also download the Xposed Uninstaller (also flashable), just in case you encounter a bootloop. Wipe cache&dalvik cache after flashing Xposed and reboot. That's it.
If you encounter any issue, please use wanam's thread.

I have flashed the v86 and worked very well without any problem. BTW v86.1 is only for the android M

Theme Center APK required (SM-J320F)
Hi,
Is your SM-J320F rooted ? If it is rooted, can you send me themecenter.apk from system/priv-app folder ?
You have to copy and paste from system/priv-app folder using ES File explorer or Root Explorer or Root Browser.
I need it for theme store to work.
Thanks.
Regards,

Hang on a while so i can make you a rom to flash from odin, Lollipop 5.1.1 no bloatware, xposed framework, SuperSU/ROOT.
If you want any custom thing like Nova Launcher or if you'd like a close to AOSP android experience tell me.
Or even better if you have TWRP i will give you the backup

I just want to root my phone now. have a feel like AOSP WITH CMTE MAYBE ?

Is there any way other then Odin to install firmware updates to a rooted device?

I have rooted Note4 sm-n910c (Exynos) running 6.0.1 stock rom and when I checked firmware updates I can't install them through OTA because root. My PC and phone have connections issue so I need to find a way to install updates. Is there a way for this?

You can try Flashfire by Chainfire. Download the latest firmware first from Samfirmware.
Make a nandroid backup first of your current rom in case something went wrong.

after root, install xposed framework and change the status of your phone to official and voila you can get official updates.

I'm pretty sure that Samsung have just dropped all support and future updates for the Note 4.

Once xposed is installed, download the wanam module and within you can find an option of changing the status to OFFICIAL. Via this phone thinks you are on official stock and downloads n installs the updates.

download all three.
I am not sure on which one is specific to your mobile, but there is a workaround
install the arm64(as i believe this one is for n910c) and let it boot up.
if it doesnot in around 15-20 mins, take out the battery and try "arm"

Arm and arm64 depending on your operating system you can use CPU-Z or AIDA64 to figure that out
