Can I flash this Kernel having my phone with Booloader Locked? I have DualRecovery, but this Kernel will work? Please let me know
No! You will never can Flash a Kernel in locked loader!

For you i think it's better don't flash anything. Basic knowledge are needed

Your device won't boot anymore. Softbrick....

Use ta backup tool to backup your ta partition and you can relock your device anytime you want.
But before starting read anything about it if you don't want to loose your zl.

No! No custom kernel with locked loader. No way to keep locked during using custom kernel

Thanks me with thanks button if helped.
And I don't think it's possible in near future for kernel to work on locked devices. Sorry

The links are down. Please fix. Would have been awesome if not for that splash screen.
Links are working for me, at least for v17r1. Does anyone else have problems downloading?

Regarding the splash screen, it's always been like that for DooMKernel. My previous versions didn't show it because I was not using the custom ramdisk, but rather the stock Sony one with a few modifications. DooMKernel's ramdisk has additional benefits like dual-recovery. And honestly, it's his kernel, so he can do whatever he wants with it: if you don't like the splash screen, feel free to build another ramdisk without it, or change to another kernel.

Since DooMLoRD has stopped the development of his great DooMKernel for the Xperia ZL, and after his permission, I'm proud to announce


UNOFFICIAL DooMKernel for the Xperia ZL


This is fully based on his original kernel sources at https://github.com/DooMLoRD/android_kernel_sony_apq8064


It's also compiled using Google GCC 4.7 Toolchain precompiled from his repo at https://github.com/DooMLoRD/android_prebuilt_toolchains


So, THANKS AND DONATE TO @DooMLoRD for his awesome job and for letting me build this unofficial release. Please, DO NOT REPORT BUGS IN THIS RELEASE TO DooMLoRD, since this is an UNOFFICIAL and UNSUPPORTED release.


You can follow the original thread for current DooMKernel at the Xperia Z forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2172888. There you will find all the features of the current release, and discuss specific issues specific to this kernel.


The releases are for STOCK JELLYBEAN 4.2.2 firmwares. Currently tested only on 10.3.1.A.0.244. Starting on v17r1 onwards, the kernel should work on both 10.3.1.A.0.244 *and* 10.3.1.A.2.67.


Starting on v13r2 onwards, I'm including a custom ramdisk, which is basically Sony's stock ramdisk plus two changes made by DooMLoRD: init.d support and fix for wrong date during boot.

Starting on v17r1 onwards, I'm including DooMKernel's ramdisk with all its goodies, including dual recovery! I had to spend some time adjusting a few things on it, to make it fully work on our ZL (changing some definitions from the Z to the ZL, and changing the event listener to access the recoveries).

Thanks @iridaki for teaching how to work with ramdisks: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1477845.
