Root Xperia ZL with Latest .2.67 fw (Yes The Latest 10.3.1.A.2.67)

I Take no credit for this I have done zero development work
All credits to the great @DooMLoRD
This is a just a Guide telling how to implement his method


Requirement


NOTE: We need complete file only to flash the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin

OR

Use the files provided by me which contain the required files only (easier method)

These kernel files are from C6502 if you have another device they might not work. In that case use the complete FTF files for your device and root using complete ftf method

  1. Latest .2.67 Kernel file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hAoiy5gSGVWktnM2p1MTk2VFU/edit
  2. Older .423 Kernel file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hAoiy5gSGVbmtOY2lyMUc0OXM/edit?pli=1


How (Using complete ftf packages)


  • Flash only the kernel.sin & loader.sin from older .423ftf package using FlashTool
  • Uncheck all wipe options
  • Check all exclude option EXCEPT Exclude Kernel
  • Now flash this using flashtool
  • Reboot the device and make sure USB Debugging & Unknown Sources are allowed in settings
  • Now root using the latest DoomLord Kit v18 (No other version of kit will work)
  • Turn Off the Device and put in Flash Mode (Press Volume Down while attaching usb cable)
  • Now open the latest .2.67 ftf package and repeat the check and uncheck process as earlier
  • Flash only the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin
  • Reboot the Device
  • Done !!

OR

How (Using given ftf files) EASIER WAY


These kernel files are from C6502 if you have another device they might not work. In that case use the complete FTF files for your device and root using complete ftf method

  • Flash the .423 kernel ftf package using FlashTool
  • Reboot the device and make sure USB Debugging & Unknown Sources are allowed in settings
  • Now root using the latest DoomLord Kit v18 (No other version of kit will work)
  • Turn Off the Device and put in Flash Mode (Press Volume Down while attaching usb cable)
  • Now open the latest .2.67 kernel ftf package and flash it
  • Reboot the Device
  • Done !!

I take no responsibility for any kind of damage to your Phone
Do all this at your own risk
Thankyou @DooMLoRD for your great work

Thanks for the guide!

The mobile ist rooted allright, but i noticed that the information (in the settings) about the kernel Version is the same as the one when I had flashed the .423 kernel. Did sth. go wrong? According to Flashtool flashing the kernels was successful. I added a screenshot of the current status. Is this the right .67 kernel?

For some reason the doomlord exploit kept repeating device not found error so I wasn't able to flash. I installed the flash/fastboot drivers, wondering if I missed anything.

On mine, the numbers are the same and I have just flashed via PC Companion and did not root yet.
