I thought this mod is actually intended to be used in rom development. in this way, the dev wouldn't have to brick their device if the rom is not working. nevertheless, a little fun won't harm anyone. we can also implement this mod to have a second rom with bigger system and data partition.

@somkill: i don't have the video but you may check my post in general section to get more info. if my script didn't work you can ask irfan to make a new installer script but please tell me what rom did you use.

use case

I would imagine a use case where I have a standard stock ROM on internal ROM (thus faster)

and a secondary ROM on SD maybe with just a different kernel and possibly some different apps.

the secondary ROM could be totally tweaked and modded and with beta apps, but if need be, one can always fallback to a reliable stock ROM via RESET BUTTON.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] irfanbagus:
clean (format or just delete) 2nd 3rd 4th partition. you can do it manually on pc or using modified updater-script. using updater-script maybe easier. check http://www.freeyourandroid.com/guide/introdution_to_edify if you want to know about edify (updater-script language).

i make this script (yes it's not kernel mod, it just simple init.rc mod) just for proof of concept. everything is hard-coded make it not flexible. right now i started working to add script capabilities to boot process. like "init.d" but with additional features. with proper script it can be data2sd, a2sd, dual boot, temporary install theme, etc. i just hope have enough free time this week end so i can finish it.

i use disk utility in gnome/xfce based linux distro. or use mkfs.ext3 from command line.

how you partition your sdcard ? if you can partition and work with dual boot, your application must be have ability to format to ext3.

if my updater script failed, please tell me what the error message said and answer these question.

1. Have you create 4 partition correctly?1st fat32 and the other ext3. 2nd partition min 250 mb. 3rd min 50. 4th min 190

2. Have you install the kernel?

@mano: you can't use this kernel for duos. You'll need a dualboot kernel spesified for duos. If you give your kernel to irfan maybe he could make one

Hii bro..

Any idea how to create dualboot with dualkernel ??

If i'm not wrong kernel put in bml7.. I see bml6 and bml8 have same size with bml7.. What exactly in that those bml ??

Can we put 2nd kernel into that bml then running as 2nd kernel ??

Sorry for newbie question and thanks for ur advice.. :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] b16h22:
That could be great

sent while doin' some burnouts
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] MarcoToo:
ROM dualbooting is easy to do, because you only have to edit the ramdisk, which is in the boot image.

Yet you would have to alter the boot loader to load the boot image from bml6 or bml8 instead of bml7. And that's hard.

And if you fail, you are as close to a hard brick as it gets.

Also there could be important things on bml6 and bml8.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] irfanbagus:
you don't have to. you could just use kexec and wrap using user-space 'bootloader'. i am playing with it few month ago. it successfully load new kernel but for unknown reasons it failed to boot. could be driver or just boot params. someone make kexec hardboot to solve driver issue with kexec, but because i don't think people will use dual boot kernel (including me) i am not try to port to our kernel.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] yabyuh22:
how does it works???same like kurotsui's?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] b16h22:
Dont do this if you dont know what it is.It is not about moving data,apps or cache to sd partition.Dual boot let"s you boot a 2nd rom from sdcard.But you have to modify the updater script and should have a dualboot supported kernel.

on my SGY I would not put cache onto sd card. way too slow. just wipe cache after switching to alternate ROM. so you maintain cache speed from NAND.

irfan method

Thanks irfan for his cool method he used to achieve DUAL BOOT capability. essentially one can mount /data from sd-card at boot time.

an empty file "bootsdcard" signals whether to boot from internal or external storage. delete "bootsdcard" to boot internally like normal.

here is the changes that can be applied to stock ROM too:

init.rc changes and /sbin/bootsdcard.sh

Hey there guys about a week ago I visited the Verizon store in BJ's near me and while being there (had a problem when VZW disconected my lines for 4 days) anyways on the display I saw

iPhone 4S

Droid Razrr

Galaxy Nexus

I own also the gnex so here is what I saw on the reception side

Razrr Had full bars of 3G in that place there was no 4G i guess we dont really need internet at such a huge store

iPhone 4S had 2 bars of 3G

Display Nexus had NONE

my nexus had also none and I have the leak 4.0.4 radios...

I really hope the 4.0.5 will bring new radios for US because I love the device but sometimes not having service even on Verizon [previous AT&T user] just sucks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
I'd return your phone, personally...

There is only so much that a software radio can do!

And I have no problem with 3G in my area (no 4G here yet) and the two hour drive to a 4G town that I had to make once...I got 4G the entire time.

Many bash the GN's radios, but I'm personally impressed. I get completely comparable service to my Droid X. And many also bashed them...and returned their phones to find improvements.

As far as an ETA goes:

Don't bother. Every place will say different. You could call Verizon three times in a row and they'd all say something different (if they'd say at all). Same goes for calling Samsung directly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patt2k:
I wont return the phone as this is the replacement phone and its working perfectly

I dont know if you read but i compared it to a display GNEX and mine with 4.0.4 radios both had no service , anyway I hope samsung/verizon give us update soon usually service is good but sometimes it could be little better

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DrearierJester1:
So I got ICS 4.0.3 now on my Xperia Neo V and I'm pretty disappointed of what Sony had brought on the table.

Why?

1.) The update was simply just the OS and not the overall design (UI and icons), functions, and performance (same with ICS Beta).

2.) ICS is still a bit laggy. I still have to use an OCed kernel to get the most of Sony ICS 4.0.3

3.) Standard application such as messages, clocks, world time, calendar, calc, are still GB 2.3.4 based apps. Perhaps they were just modified to run on ICS.

Although the dialer and phonebook seems to be updates but still the icons are not sleek and not revamped.

4.) Out-call screen is too dull and boring (its not sleek anyway, still based on GB 2.3.4), on the other hand in-call screen seems to be updated.

5.) Media player is still based on GB 2.3.4 and I can say its too old school, and I'm not liking it.

5.) WiFi Direct was removed. Why????

My Expectations for Sony ICS:

Given that Sony have already launched Xperia S, then why not put all those sleek icons and UI enhancements on Sony ICS? Isn't really hard to copy and paste them? I said copy and paste because I myself was copying and pasting all the UI images of Xperia S and modifying apks of the recently released ICS for 2011 Xperia.

C'mon guys people are waiting for something new for them to play and make use of it. Is this what we get because of your lower priced phones than with your competitors?

In Contrast with Other Phone:

Recently HTC released, HTC One V which has the same and exact chipset, ram, processor with Neo V. And I was able to use One V personally for 3 days and its not laggy. A new revamped UI was also implemented and there are new features than of with their previous builds. Take note that One V has ICS 4.0.3 with HTC Sense 4.0 (which I believe a resource hog - as they say).

My point here is that why HTC can but why Sony can't? I know you'll just say that "go ahead and move on to HTC" but what I am telling you guys (especially the developers or forum mods)

why can't Sony build a much sleek UI, new features and functions, and a great & optimized ICS. Hello? We are not only waiting for ICS we are also waiting for a new & fresh user experience.

Conclusion

Perhaps most of you guys here won't agree with me but to be honest I've been using Sony (Ericsson) products since I'm on high school. What I am trying to say is that please Sony do hear what your customers are saying.

They are not dumb and we do want changes most especially, you guys are Sony and you are not HTC nor Samsung, please MAKE A CHANGE. If you would like to be a leader in mobile technology then try to consider our opinions.

That's all.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] spiritualwar:
As a Neo V user from Turkey certainly im not one the "most of the guys". Totally agree with you...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ThilinaC:
Totally agree with all the points,been using Sony Ericsson mobiles from 2006 and kinda disappointed about the update.They claim about a total gui revamp while in reality its just an icon change in apps :/ About the lag well try some games and apps,it will start going super slow :/ I see you copy/pasted this same in the thread I made in sony site,and still no reply from any dev or mod..lol

About new apps not being there well their message must be if you want all the new stuff buy a new 2012 device,which is totally marketing bs.Anyway disappointed with Sony.This is why if you wanna mod should buy a Google Nexus,damn nobody told me this before buying Neo V
