Need help... out of options



Good day people of xda dev forum.

I've just retired from a 12 hour nonstop search to simply use xposed framework on my android 5.0.2 lollipop ( mobile: sm-g901F samsung galaxy s5 plus)

Now bear with me cause this was a really confusing ride.

It started with me wanting to use xposed itself ( obviously). I installed the installer and xposed modules. Then i saw framework couldn't load executable. So i searched around an apparantly it needed to be flashed manually for it to work properly. So i googled ALOT to understand the world of rooting and flashing mobiles ( i've never done either) and ended up using odin for the rooting with iroot and flashing a recovery called ttwrp. After many errors i finally got it to work and both were succesfully on my phone. So next i downloaded a package from the xposed framework downloads and it was the wrong one causing my phone to softbreak.

So i redone the entire firmware and did more research. Turned out i needed to know what sort of cpu i had ( turned out to be ARM) So i downloaded a arm sdk 21 package since thats what you need for android 5.0 and it soft broke again.

Redone the firmware, checked out why oh why it failed to work and then i found out i needed to deodex my stock rom since alot of changes occured causing xposed to be screwed up on a normal stock rom.

SO, after searching hundreds of outdated 2010-2012 threads with a few 2015 posts i found out about xultimate v2.4.2. did all the steps on there and i ended up with the error: next time don't disconnect the phone. No searches were succesful for that error so i moved on to other ways of deodexing. Short version of that: found 2 batch files automatically doing it for you and the only thing you had to do was find your system and firmware files on your phone ( using pc ) and paste it into the program so it knows where it's located.

And... i can't access those files on my pc using usb ( yes i debugged it and did everything you could find on the outdated forums of the web)

Used android commander, couldn't find the device cause it was offline for the program even though it was online if i went to check in adb's build platform CMD.

Tried another few things and short story: it didn't work.

Now im out of ideas, i've wasted a day of my weekend coming along all errors you could possibly have and now im lost, all i want to do is make xposed framework work on my mobile so i can make use of the xposed modules.

Can anyone please help me out, im really desperate and frustrated now, i can't think of anything more to do here ( ps: i also tried finding a already done deoxeded rom and no dice)
