[Q] OTA Update

So Cyanogen sent out the 44R ota today and I am rooted with a custom recovery. My current software version is 38R android 4.4.4. So in order to do the ota:
1. I need to go into SuperSU and do the permanant unroot.
2. Reboot
3. Flash stock recovery.
So for step 3 I downloaded the 38R stock firmware from cygen's site. Can I extract it and flash just the recovery? Will this work?

You don't need to do any of that. No unrooting is required. You can flash the OTA with a custom recovery. All you need to do is initiate the update process through your Settings menu.

If you uninstall Xposed you can use the normal OTA. If you don't want to uninstall Xposed you can use the modified OTA. The custom recovery and root make no difference either way.

hey thank you very much timmaaa! works perfect after update i only need root again

xposed installation

I wonder if its possible to install xposed to flex2 5.0.1 rooted? At the moment it is zip installation via recovery, howto do that if its possible?

Sadly... Not possible.
Even if it worked without custom recovery it would be a huge risk

You've got a few things wrong. So first, in order to be able to install any Cyanogenmod 12 roms (or any other lollipop roms) you have to update to stock lollipop first. Here is the Argentina lollipop 5.0.2 Odin file for your tablet: Wi-Fi SM-T530 XXU1BOH5 ARO Region (Argentina)
Second, the version of cyanogenmod you have is out of date and no longer developed or supported. I would strongly urge you to choose this version of CM12 instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-4/development/rom-blisspop-3-1-t3084757
Finally as far as Gapps (yes you need gapps), I would recommend TK Gapps, it's regularly updated and you have control over just how many google apps you want installed (I use the nano version, but any version should work fine).

Why I can not use Kitkat android to use CM12? What is the problems? I think that lolipop 5.0.2 use a lot batery, if I install lolipop stock and after that the rom the problem will be same?

Bootloader. If you don't know what that is, don't even bother asking why
You won't be using stock. You just need to install the stock 5.0.2 file before you'll be able to successfully flash any lollipop ROM. Trust me, I've been there before
Don't worry about the battery. The stock rom doesn't have any affect on your battery after you install the custom rom

You can to install successfully only CM12 not CM12.1 on your KK bootloader .
If you want you can to try this 5.0 CM build
http://android.comtek-wiebe.de/Cyan...12-20150324-UNOFFICIAL-matissewifi.zip.md5sum
and http://android.comtek-wiebe.de/PAC-man/pac_matissewifi_LP.Beta-1.Unofficial_20150323-211047.zip
It is the best of CM12 in mine .
You need select 5.0 Gapps .

Yes, exactly, but it's the same easy process. It's worth doing now so you can install any lollipop ROM you want and not have to worry about the bootloader issue
Edit: I just remembered, the ota might not be able to install correctly since you're already rooted. If that's the case, use Odin and that firmware file I linked to earlier in order to update to stock lollipop

I wrote a set of instructions for that here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61421937&postcount=4
It's pretty straightforward, you just have to use Odin to install the recovery, then boot into the recovery and use that to install the supersu zip. The post I just linked to goes into more detail, obviously

It will wipe system partition (all system apps and files). You can wipe system if you want to install new rom but there is no need for that. It's not recommended. Factory reset from TWRP is enough if you want to install new rom.
Thanks for the great app as its awaited since long. Have some question's for secure move from philz.
Can I install apk direct over lollipop? Now I am on tizen.
Any cm working version available for it?

Why? You can flash recovery on 10f firmware.
Why you need bumped 10f kernel?
On 10f bootloader you can use any kernel/recovery.
