[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] churd83:
I'm not sure where im having trouble. It's flashing on the partitions i created cause it changes the system partition to Ext3. How long should it take to pass the Samsung Gtab 2 splash screen on first boot. I left it there for atleast 10mins but it never proceeded to boot.

So anyways this is how i created my partitions.I used Mini Tool Partition Wizard Home Edition for windows to create a 23GB Fat32 partition for SD storage at the beginning of the card. That left me with about 6gb of free space at the end. I then proceeded to create the EXT4 partitions in the order and size that you stated. I was able to create the dual-boot zip of AOKP JB in virtual Ubunutu. Weird thing was it created 2 zips. Before i ran the script i unzip the script zip you provided, then i placed the AOKP zip in the script folder. After i ran the script it created a dual-boot zip inside that folder and outside that folder. Was i supposed to place the AOKP zip in the script folder? I believe i used the zip created by the script that was inside of the script folder.

So thats what i did. Any ideas as to what went wrong? I'm on JB leak right now but i love the customization of AOKP.

Thanks in advance

PS: sorry for all the "zips" lol

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Nicene Nerd:
I would think so. It only modifies the updater-script and boot image mount points, which should work the same.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] churd83:
Ok so I can't get it to boot back to internal rom. I keep getting dev/block/mmcblk0p5 access denied. The bootinternal and bootexternal permissions are set right. Boot.img's are in sdcard/Boot and renamed to bootinternal.img and bootexternal.img. Any ideas? How do I use mobile Odin to boot back and forth?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Nicene Nerd:
Make sure you use the "su" command before you try to reboot.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] cmenard:
I built my kernels flashable to build the boot.img on the fly using the exisitng ramdisk. Theoretically, this should allow you to flash it to your dual boot setup without messing it up. Anyone tried that yet?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] churd83:
Yea i tried that last night but got bootInternal.img not found.

i just noticed that there is no bootInternal.img in the system/bin folder. There is a bootExternal.img. Maybe thats why?

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Well the script wouldn't work so i cd to the dir of the internal boot.img and ran cat internal.img > /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 and then reboot and that worked.

Update: so I setup my internal rom the same as external and was able to boot to external by using the bootexternal script. Weird

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] openmatrix:
It's easy as installing a rom through CWM .you just need to flash that kernel on your device via CWM or any other custom recovery and make two partition via next tool (full instructions are given in the op of the blackhawk next kernel thread) .And it's so simple.....:)

There will be no dataloss noticed on this process but it's better to make a nanadroid backup of your rom when things goes wrong:D

i'll need an external memory right? if so, will an 8gb sd card suffice? I haven't read the whole thread about dual booting. but I found there that I should flash the kernel thru odin.

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
ONLY IF YOU MEAN "Blackhawks NEXT Kernel":

No need to. You only need enough free space on internal storage for the 2nd Rom´s system.img.

You need to flash the Kernel and proprietary files for the Kernel from a Custom Recovery, not Odin.

You should read the FAQ of NEXT Kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41583865&postcount=3 .

Pre knowledge:

*By dualbooting you can dualboot b/w sammy stock 4.x.x ( 4.0.3 ,4.0.4 ,4.1.1 ,4.1.2 ,4.2.2) and an AOSP rom (4.2.2,4.3)

*you needs about 2 GB memory free (around 2 gb) in your INTERNAL SDCARD

*You need a rooted tab 2 with blackhawk next repacked philz recovery

Things needed :

● Rooted tab 2 with philz touch recovery

●Blackhawk next kernel 1.8.3 or 2.0 and samsung proprietary vendor blobs, if you dual boot b/w stock 4.2.2 and AOSP

●Blackhawk next kernel 1.7 , when you dualboot b/w stock 4.1.x and AOSP (NOT SURE 1.8.3 AND 2.0 SUPPORTS STOCK 4.1.X)

●Blackhawk next tool

ways of dual booting :

1■) stock as primary rom AOSP as secondary rom

2■)AOSP as primary , stock as secondary

3■) AOSP 1 as primary and AOSP 2 as secondary (for dual booting two cm based roms)

4■) vice-versa of 3

Procedure:

1■) a) Reboot to recovery(philz recovery)

b)Flash respective blackhawk kernel you needed (choose from the instructions given above)

c)Flash blackhawk next tool

d)choose option Create secondary system img for CM based roms

e)After flasing exit from aroma menu (next tool)

f) hit reboot recovery option by going to advanced -->reboot recovery

g) After rebooting you can see a beautiful aroma based menu showing "BOOT PRIMARY RECOVERY" and "BOOT SECONDARY RECOVERY"

h) press "BOOT SECONDARY RECOVERY

I) Flash B.H next kernel , then flash cm based rom , then reflash B.H next kernel and reboot

J) Voila !!!! Now your tab is dual bootable

2■) a) Backup stock rom in recovery

b) go to "wipe data---->clean to install new rom

c) flash a CM rom

d) Flash B.H next kernel

e) make secondary system img for stock rom through B.H next tool

f) reboot to secondary recovery

g)restore backuped stock rom

h) flash B.H next kernel

I) reboot

3■)a) wipe data and dalvik cache

b) install a CM rom

c) flash B.H kernel

d)Flash blackhawk next tool

e)choose option Create secondary system img for CM based roms

f) reboot to secondary recovery

g) Flash another CM based rom

h)flash B.H kernel

I) reboot

4■) same as 3

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] superSUnoob:

i flashed version 1.7. then i followed procedure 1 steps A-F. after that i cant procede cuz i cant find the kernel in the internal sd and the cm rom. so i rebooted my tab. it asked me "what do you want to do with your tablet?" with the following options below it "primary recovery", "secondary recovery", "reboot", "bootloader".

i dont know on what to do with the recoveries so i choosed "reboot". then it rebooted. it asked me again "what do you want to do with your tablet?" with the following options below it "boot primary", "boot secondary", "recovery", "bootloader". i clicked on "boot primary" so that i can still use my tab but nothing appears. just a black lit screen.

what should i do? can i re-flash the kernel thru external sd card and do the steps again?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] openmatrix:
mAybe your data will be in sdcard/0 directory.just look there....

And you need to do now is boot your device to recovery then press "primary recovery" and reflash kernel again and then reboot your device and press "boot primary"...probably your device will boot

After booting put cm rom and kernel in ext sdcard .then reboot device to "secondary recovery " . At there flash cm and kernel. Then reboot your device and hit "boot secondary"
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
i think there is an option in philz touch, under advanced there should be „set storage to..." tab on it will change it, but needs a.reboot to affect.. after that he 'll see more folders ;)

[MENTION=5411040]superSUnoob[/MENTION] did you only flash the kernel or other files too?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] openmatrix:
Yes I know that but philz will defaultly load internal sdcard as data/media on both recovery.I think he didn't changed any thing on it.

He is using next 1.7 so there's no need of vendor blobs

[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Android-Andi:
you have to flash the kernel every time

after

flashing a new rom.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] openmatrix:
Blobs are kernel driver specific scripts made for a specific device...It allows using hardware accelerated video playback(ie;using h/w decoder), taking pictures through camera,and playing videos from YouTube.

Newer blackhawk versions (from 1.8.x onwards ketut (developer of blackhawk) separated kernel and vendor blobs into two parts (normally it's put under a single file) .so you need ro flash vendor blobs on kernels after 1.8.x
