No compatible Xposed at this time. Therefore you can't use gravity box.

If you use KII-L22(GR5 has variant KII-L21,22,24) , SImply Unlock bootloader, Install TWRP then install SuperSU same as KIW-L21/22/24.
Since I use KII-L22, I can't say TWRP works KII-L21,24.
You can find TWRP thread, and bootloader unlock thread. Read it.

Thanks For the conformation of
1. Unlock boot loader
2. Flash TWRP Recovery
3. Install SuperSU
On KII-L22
I use KII-L21 and still did not get the boot loader unlock code as english site is always busy and chinese site asks to wait for two weeks.
Once I get the unlock code I will try this on my L21. If there is anyone with unlocked KII-L21 please try and confirm the success.
@ssrnsrsr
1. In which web site you managed to obtain the unlock code?
2. Can you give it a try to flash CM 12.1 alpha released for 5X to see if it is compatible with gr5 ?

I use Chinese one. Form layout is same both English and Chinese.
In TWRP thread, reason of " wait 14 days" is talked. Support for KII-L variant is just started also.
So you had better to read and stick that for more information.
