hi
I've searched a lot and tried any auto root app but didn't succeeded.
and couldn't find custom recovery for it in order to root with supersu afterward.

According to this guy,

You have to flash a specific FW then Root with CF for E500H,
I didn't tested that before, so i take no responsibility,

You can usually flash back the STOCK FW.

Since there is no CF root file especially made for E500H on 5.1.1,
Then according to that guy it'll work,
And don't always stick to the version of the root file with CF, I've rooted alot of 5.0 phones with 4.4 CF file,
Don't be shy and try, and let me know if you facing a problem,
Also try with Kningroot app first, which can be found here

why one has to flash a firmware before rooting ?!?!
(i'm new to this field,sorry for my silly questions)

Welcome the field bro, it s|u|c|k|s you gonna love it ..

Some Firmwares can't be rooted due to some security changes,
So, to have root access on a device which has FW can't be rooted it has to be flashed by another FW which can be rooted, simple like that,
Two days ago i had G530FZ with OF1 FW, after many tries turned out that it can't be rooted,
So, in order to root it i had to flash the OA9, check my post here

If it's the same FW as the one on your phone with same csc code (SER) -which you can check in recovery mode from the bottom- then don't download it and just flash the CF-Autoroot file for E500H to get root access.
