[Galaxy Grand Prime General] toxinburn:
Okay so I have not seen anything new in regards to us unfortunate enough to have the Cricket variant of the grand prime, so I decided to put together a little step by step to get xposed installed and running on this device, I think it may work on others as well, but since I have not attempted it then do not just assume it will. This guide is as stated in the sub line of the post for the SM-G530AZ running 5.1.1 Lollipop. I am not responsible if you brick or bootloop etc etc your device. So long as you can follow directions you should be fine.

1. First of all you must already have root access on your device, mine is using SUPERSU to handle root requests. If you do not have root yet then check forums for way to do so it is there already, however you must root with kingroot or manually with the same exploit that kingroot is leveraging in order to obtain it before attempting the install of xposed, otherwise it will fail.

2. You need to download the zip file attached to this post to your desktop or device and unzip it into your device sdcard.

3. Once you have extracted the apk and zip files into the sdcard you need to install the xposed installer apk so make sure you have enabled Unknown Sources from your settings/Security menu and you may get a warning from the device as well that is okay just tap okay and finish the install.

4. Now you need to download flashfire from the play store and install it as well. Open flashfire and flash the xposed-v80.0-sdk22-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20160211.zip that you will have extracted Choose flash zip in flashfire and make sure you leave automount unchecked. You can open the xposed installer app to make sure it recognized it, which it should if you flashed it properly.

5. Now you can enjoy the Xposed Framework on your device.

I am currently attempting to learn as much as I can about the trust zone and smc as I can tell you that is the only way we are going to get custom recovery and roms on this thing sadly. I am also following someone who claims to be able to rollback android from 5.0+ to 4.0-4.4.4 via jtag which is something I too have pondered on if it was possible and honestly I think it would be, I would like to explore the possibility that their may have been more vulnerabilities within the device prior to the 5.1.1 update I currently have 5.1.1 installed which is what the device had at time of purchase for me, however some may still be running 4.4.4 if you happen to be using 4.4.4 still then I cannot say whether this guide will work or not for you I think it would but you would probably need to use a little older version of the xposed installer but I am not certain, I would probably just update to lollipop if you really want to be safe about it and the firmware has been posted on these forums as well. Please hit the thanks if this helped you out at all, and if you are confused or have an issue you can pm me and I will try my best to get back to you whenever possible. But this is how I got xposed working on my device by simply rooting with kingroot, then using the mrw script to remove kingroot and replace with supersu and enabling unknown sources. The root guide that exists for this device however stated to flash some other boot.img and I actually had issues when I did that step, so after i went back to stock again I did the root guide with kingroot and did not ever flash that other boot image and all worked fine for me.
