THX my friend from russian comunity for huge help!

For root flash latest SuperSu via recovery.

I have fine working xposed without bootloops (video proof) with this steps:
1. fresh ftf install with full wipes
2. install kernel from this thread
3. install supersu via recovery
4. boot system
5. install titanium backup
6. remove useless system apps
7. clean dalvik via titanium backup
8. reboot system
9. boot recovery and install xposed zip file via recovery
10. boot system and clean dalvik via titanium backup
11. reboot
12. install xposed apk
13. reboot
14. install gravity box module
15. reboot
16. done
With this steps I never have bootloops with xposed.

Camera api 2???? So does this enable raw shooting?

 

[Bro0z3r]

According to this:

It doesn't!

 

[Desperanto86]

Camera api 2???? So does this enable raw shooting?

its just shows applications that camera api functions enabled in kernel, but it doesn't mean that they are presented Sony didn't include new camera drivers in kernel maybe later thay will add them

Any chance we can get kexec for multirom in next release? thanks.. Oh yeah and when you say security -0, do you mean SE linux disabled/permissive?..

no chance I just repacked stock kernel SE linux should be off...I don't know how to check this. But I don't have any problems (full working root, recovery, system mounting, XPOSED!)

don't forget to use LP xposed alfa. old KK xposed doesn't work

Can we use DRM function restore with this one or that patch needs the stock kernel?

DRM restore need fully stock kernel.sin...repacked stock kernel automaticaly comes custom kernel for locked bootloader

Let me reprhrase the question:
Can I user your kernel to make /system writable AND the DRM patch or not?

Thank you

@ Desperanto86

At first thanks a lot for sharing your kernel!

About Xposed: Does it really work on your device, and what modules have you already installed? I tried XPrivacy, but ended in a bootloop, even with the unsupported 3.6.8-version...

 

[kjames2001]

yes

did you try reboot again? cause i still get bootloop!

 

[Desperanto86]

I use GravityBox it realy works. There are some bugs, like invisible right button, but almost all work

 

[kjames2001]
