i have read on github that the Xperia Z3 (Leo/SO-01G) is supported. Not the European Version. Xperia Z3 (Leo/SO-01G) is the japanese Version. Is this correct?

also V1 didn't work for me

Edit: Kernel works but cant be patch for systemless Root.

Using 78 kernel with PureX v6. No problem here.. Works fine. First boot i can't acces Development option. But after a reboot its clear..
As you do for this kernel to work with your PureX v6 Z3 rom because I have tried it and it always remains in bootloop.
Are there any steps or previous modifications you make to install?

Thank you very much, I appreciate your help.

78kernel working great here

Is /data encryption supported?
On advanced kernel it was not possible

If not how hard is this to add?

V3 working fine. AutoSMP is a nice new addition.
Even on first boot phone is smooth and responsive.

However with magisk installed phone will boot loop after enabling systemless Xposed. This was working fine for V2 so not sure what the incompatibility is now.
Will try again when I have time to do a clean install to avoid any possible conflict.

Thanks for sharing your work it's a great MM kernel with awesome improvements in each version!

I still can't get it to work on Kryptonian nor ExistenZ. The problem is not SuperSU related, because I uninstalled it and still reboot just after finishing boot.
I attach a logcat and dmesg. Hope it's helpful.

If those roms are pre rooted then the scripts to kill the Sony crap on boot will run twice as they run from kernel as well. This causes the bootloop.
You'll have to remove anything to do with RecRoot to get it woeking.

For example for my ROM I had to make a unlocked bootloader version where I just excluded the whole pre-root part of the installation on the basis that UB users can fastboot kernels to get recovery and root.

Try removing the pre-root from the ROM zip and then flashing. Remember to remove anything from the updater script that you remove from the zip so there's no errors.

Ok, thank you. I hope I will be able to do that!

Edited: I've been looking at the updater scripts and I've found nothing related to root. Actually the flash zip is a system image, so I don't know how to work with it. The only thing I deleted after flashing was the recovery that came with the ROM, but I still have the bootloop problem.

PM me the updater script and I'll take a look. I'd download the ROM but I don't have time :p

So to make it work you're gonna need to remove all the files associated with root and scripts that interfere with the kernel (Ie they both try and so the same thing)

So in the Krypton folder in the zip delete recovery, root, superSU

Then go through the updater script and anything to do with those folders and the files in them needs to be deleted. Just use your instinct. If you deleted it then don't let the updater script try and flash it or it'll throw an error :p

This way you remove all conflicts and it can boot after flashing.
Flash kernel directly after flashing ROM so you keep recovery.

It worked! I've then flashed ROM, kernel, drm restoration zip, supersu and xposed and everything is running smoothly and without issues. Now let's see the potential of the kernel.
Thanks!
