Can you provide the stock kernel to relock the bootloader after flashing SU ?

It works for whether or not your phone is rooted.
However, your bootloader should be UNLOCKED to be able to flash and use this on your phone.

will it kill data or can i keep all apps and settings? I'm always not sure...

If you want to keep all apps and settings, you can try NOT wiping the /data partition but STILL wipe the /cache and /dalvik-cache.

Bugs?

I've noticed the following issues.

> I couldn't mount external sd card on recovery (same as XZDualRecovery)
> The battery stats doesn't seem to work.
> The battery also seems to heat up fast with WiFi turned on in comparison with the Stock Kernel. D:

This is the stock kernel, you don't have to relock the bootloader after flashing SU.

I often use trackid, so I need to relock my bl and restore my ta partition

Weird.

I tried flashing the kernel again after I flashed to 14.6.A.0.368 - Customized DE this morning.

The battery stats still doesn't work, but the heating issue seems to be fixed.

When you unlock bootloader you will lose X-Reality, noise reduction and so on, but you can restore them!

My bad, I thought TrackID wasn't working anymore with ubl, but I just tried and it DOES work. Although I'll have a look on your link, thanks mate

Can I use this in a MultiROM with RR CustomROM ?

OP says stock ROM or any ROM based on it. RR is neither...

Sorry if I was a bit confusing. I meant to say can I install "A stock Rom" with a RR in MultiROM then use this ?

 

[ja_android]
