The only reason to use Kingroot is if there are no other options for your phone. You can root via CF Auto Root or via instaling TWRP and using that to flash the SuperSU zip. Plenty of info about this in the S5 forums here.
CF AUTO ROOT is available for 5.0 ..and TWRP is not available for this model
Can anyone kindly guide how to root stock S5 G900h on 6.0.1. I have tried odin method to flash twrp. After showing 'pass' and reset phone still no twrp.

The only way to root it is by ODIN (indirectly)
Just grab a ClockworkMod recovery ported for your device as ODIN flashable image (.img)
Go to odin. In your phone keep the home, vol + and power buttons pressed till it goes on download mode. In ODIN, choose the preloader and recovery and disable the reboot after flash. Press start. After it finishes, you can remove the battery and boot into CWM. From there flash SuperSu.zip update file (google for it). Reboot and congrats. Note that you may brick your device with ODIN. Please refer to video tuts for a step-by-step solution. Anyway, hope i helped.

Beware! Rooting your device using the aforementioned method WILL work, but will void your warranty by tripping KNOX WARRANTY VOID. It cannot be reset once tripped.

It depends on the model u've got..

1.Downgrade to 4.4.2.
2.Download a flashable .tar.md5 file of a stock rom ... AN2 works fine
3.Flash it using ODIN
4.Install Towelroot and SuperSU
5.Flash a .tar.md5 file of the stock rom u r using currently
VOILA. knox 0x0 and cellphone rooted

Yes it will. Just make sure to download the right file in CF-Auto-Root Homepage, in your case, you must download the file based on the Build ID: LRX21T.G900FDXU1BOA2 because this is based on Android 5.0

You need a custom recovery to flash the xposed framework

I am not sure if you really NEED a recovery for that. Because all it basically does is copy files to specific locations and set permissions (read the updater-script). So basically you could do this using adb shell as well. Please CMIIW. All the custom recovery does is, to make it as easy as possible for you.

Using custom recovery i thi k its so much easier than adb shell. There are requirements before installing on s6 or s6 edge. The most important been you need to have a deodexed ROM. It wont work on a stock rom. I have tried it. So you need to have a custom rom installed. Have a read of this

Wrong.
1. No need to install TWRP in order to root phone's Android. You'll just boot into TWRP and not install it.
2. Also because phone is based on Spreadtrum chipset, ODIN isn't applicable.
