@niaboc79 Hello . First of all thanks for the ROM , Unfortunately I can't Test it for now because Im on the Latest Build of Oreo with Lockedbootloader. Can you Please update Installation Instruction for Locked bootloader or just Upload the Rootable Xperia XZs Dual 41.3.A.2.24 Boot.Img , Heres the Kernel I extracted from G8332 FTF, But I dont know how to make it work. http://www.mediafire.com/file/5t39i7y7wi0pxx6/kernel_S1-SW-LIVE-DE8D-PID1-0007-MMC.sin . I will just follow the Instruction on this Thread post but theres no Kernel for Latest Firmware yet . https://forum.xda-developers.com/xzs/how-to/tutorial-step-step-guide-to-gain-root-t3612624 . Thanks
