Root Xperia ZL with Latest .2.67 fw (Yes The Latest 10.3.1.A.2.67)

I Take no credit for this I have done zero development work
This is a just a Guide telling how to implement his method

Requirement

• Latest Flashtool https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hA...FdJTkk/preview
• latest Ftf file for fw .2.67
• Ftf file for fw .423
• Latest DoomLord Rooting Kit v18 (no else would work in this case)http://www76.zippyshare.com/v/29480564/file.html
• Make sure device is on latest .2.67 fw (If not then wait for the official update)

NOTE: We need complete file only to flash the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin

OR

Use the files provided by me which contain the required files only (easier method)

These kernel files are from C6502 if you have another device they might not work. In that case use the complete FTF files for your device and root using complete ftf method

1. Latest .2.67 Kernel file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hA...p1MTk2VFU/edit
2. Older .423 Kernel file https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8hA...OXM/edit?pli=1

How (Using complete ftf packages)

• Flash only the kernel.sin & loader.sin from older .423ftf package using FlashTool
• Uncheck all wipe options
• Check all exclude option EXCEPT Exclude Kernel
• Now flash this using flashtool
• Reboot the device and make sure USB Debugging & Unknown Sources are allowed in settings
• Now root using the latest DoomLord Kit v18 (No other version of kit will work)
• Turn Off the Device and put in Flash Mode (Press Volume Down while attaching usb cable)
• Now open the latest .2.67 ftf package and repeat the check and uncheck process as earlier
• Flash only the Kernel.sin & Loader.sin
