I know that some people are having some issues working with the flash tool and downgrading their firmware to get root. There IS an easier way. The way I rooted the last time was to:
1) download one of the prerooted flashables (I chose one of the lollipop ones) and put it on my SD card,
2) use Kingroot on the .44 firmware to get temp root
3) install the dual recovery.
4) Once dual recovery installed and booted to TWRP for the first time I did a wipe (may not be necessary) and flashed the pre-rooted .zip
5) wiped cache/dalvik (again, maybe not necessary) and rebooted to rooted lollipop with supersu.
6) If kinguser is still installed (I don't believe it was for me) just uninstall it.
