Well, i can test, what if the phone will boot, and will enter recovery and after SuperSU flashing will boot and work fine, can this kernel be use for every day ?

And, is there possibly to kill the phone forever with this test kernel or not ?

yes it can be used for everyday use bcos
the zImage is purely stock.

It wont damage the phone bcos only boot partition is being flashed. it can be recovered easily by flashing stock kernel from stock ftf.

Looks like we have root for unlocked bl Everything, looks like, working fine.
Please, sorry for the non english language screenshots.

U can unpack ur stock ftf file. look for file named kernel*.sin sized ard ~9.3MB.

But u can try flashing boot image provided in this thread 1st as frm i can see DennisDD78 device is D6603. but safest is by providing ur stock boot. im not sure if Z3 Dual has slight diff kernel.

I can`t get, existing kernel version is for 6603 or 6653 ?

Thanks. I will try this D6653 kernel first. Then send you the .sin file later. I am downloading the ftf.
