Hello everyone.

I have a problem.

My main ROM (Internal) is 10.2 CM (currently cm-10.2-20131018-NIGHTLY-grouper).

I've flashed OmniROM as secondary ROM.

On first boot no problem.

But whichever way I setting the option "Share kernel with Internal ROM ?" during installation,

"Share" or "Don't hare"

​

I get this error when I try either to update my second ROM, or flash SuperSu at next boot:

​

So I tried to flash kernel_kexec_430.zip, ou kernel_kexec_cm102.zip :

Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs -> OmniROM -> Flash ZIP (always successfull)

Although it seems to me that kernel_kexec are for a secondary ubuntu installation ROM.

I'll try to flash a kernel from "2. third-party kernels with kexec-hardboot patch".

But I do not know which to choose.

If you have any tips, let me know ! :o

Edit : I've try flash

[KERNEL][GPL][N7]franco.Kernel - r75 with Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs -> OmniROM -> Flash ZIP -> franco.Kernel-nightly-r75.zip

and with Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs -> Add boot.img -> boot-r75.img

But I always have the issue.

Edit 2 : Succeeded ! Advanced -> MultiROM -> "inject. boot.img" -> boot-r75.img

If it helps someone ... :silly:

Try with share kernels or not. Some roms work for me with this option some not(share not share)

Idk why I booted it again and it works fine. Thanks anyway :)

Has anyone tried some recent builds of UT? do you know if mir is still implemented/can be removed? after disabling mir on 14.10 build everything is really smooth..but i wish to upgrade to a more recent version..
[Nexus 7 Original Development] kyelo2:
On the latest (17-Oct-13) Ubuntu Touch I moved /home/phablet/.display-mir to /home/phablet/.display-mir.old, rebooted, and this indeed cleared up a lot of the instability of the screen, which was welcome.

But I am having difficulty with the wi-fi. It "sees" my wi-fi, but when I tap "connect", the dialogue does not open up to allow me to enter a password. Hence I cannot test the browser.

Has anyone been successful in connecting to a wi-fi or using the browser?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
Go back to the 14-oct-13 UT release and give your method a try, wifi works good.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
FYI, new image released for N7 today called 'trusty', flashed in latest multirom and renamed /home/phablet/.display-mir to /home/phablet/.display-mir.old

rebooted and is actually running quite well wifi good and no screen lockups.... yet....

That's because 14.04 is pre-alpha status. It will have lots of bugs.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:

[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheIronMaiden:
There is no such folder
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
there certainly is if u use terminal(sudo) or 'unhide' hidden files in file manager...... DOH

Is there any way to change kernel from a secondary ROM that does NOT share kernel with internal? I tried to flash franco.kernel but it didnt boot

Enviado desde mi Nexus 7 usando Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
I used UT file manager, open it up and a few folders show up. In the lower right corner there should be a preferences tab, select it and turn off 'hide hidden folders/files or whatever the lingo says... rename the file and reboot.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] dsr13:
If you can't get UT to stay stable long enough to use the UT file manager, the file manager in the TWRP "Advanced" tab will get you there. You can find it in the /SD Card/MultiROM folder.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
I just updated to todays 10/22 'trusty' daily release, blew me up and wont boot any longer....... DOH
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Gothic4:
I didnt know that we can edit ubuntu in recovery. Thanks man.I will test it :)

edit: WOW after i change to old this ubuntu i really fast :)

edit: I have two questions: How i can get back from aplication(where is back button), and 2 is OTA working?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheIronMaiden:
the back button appears when you swipe up from the bottom.

That's precisely Galaxy Sbean that loose root. 1st internal Rom is stock 4.3 rooted. With 3rd Rom, Vanir, don't have any issues.

Not using shared kernel.

I'm using latest multirom 16a
[Nexus 7 Original Development] ikslawlok:
For the same reason, I have FirefoxOS on my mako. To test, hack. But I totally agree with you strongly a 100% Linux operating system, without which society seeks my privacy.

[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
That's very odd. I have noticed however that the root isn't integrated to the Settings section as on SmoothRom. It is using the SuperSU instead. Check your apps and see if you find the superman # icon. I used mine with shared kernel (M-kernel) from my SmoothRom by accident and just decided to keep it that way.

Ubuntu Touch Freeze

Hi!

I have installed Ubuntu Touch 14.04 This morning, but it Boots, then its VERY LAGGI, and then it freezes. Why? No support yet? Thanks for Help!
[Nexus 7 Original Development] bonzer2u:
rename /home/phablet/.display-mir to /home/phablet/.display-mir.old

reboot

lag and freeze gone....
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheIronMaiden:
thanks to boner for this fix. Also be sure to use a file manager within Ubuntu to change it, or reboot back to recovery and use its file manager. Home folder is in /data too.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] PojntFX:
Thanks! Lag fixed! Maby we should ask the publisher of multirom to change the code:)
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
I was snooping around and found this... http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/20131025/

Could this be installed on our Nexus 7's and if so, will there be that disappearing mouse issue? Someone earlier in the thread mentioned its a 13.04 glitch, so how about 14.04?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheIronMaiden:
Yes, not sure about the mouse issue. I'll install it later too.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
Yeah cause 13.04 was having issues with touching. The thing would freeze up in terms of touch. I'll give it a shot as I do see one for Grouper in the link, but right now I have to transfer 7gigs worth of crap from my N7 to my PC before being able to try it out and report my findings...

:(
[Nexus 7 Original Development] TheIronMaiden:
This trick will eliminate the lag and freeze-ups. Use UT touch to navigate to that folder, or use the recovery file manager to change it.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
I had seen this solution earlier but figured it was to fix a serious freeze.

Right now, I'm off to test it!

EDIT: I see our confusion. Your solution is to the Touch version, my dilemma is for the Desktop version.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] frankfurts:
Hey guys I had Ubtuntu touch running a few months back and thought I would update it to see if it is more stable problem is now I can't get it to boot. Can someone help me find what im doing wrong, get gets stuck on the google boot screen with the padlock.

I go to multi ROM>add ROM

ROM type: Android/Ubuntu touch

Don't share kernel

Install to internal memory

Then go in and flash * saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+grouper.zip (about 30M)

then go back into list ROMS and select ubuntu and hit flash zip

Now I flash * saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip (about 350M)*

Also Im using Franco Kernel and Running PA3.99 as primary

Thanks for any help guys Im struggling
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Gothic4:
lulz you must use the ubuntu touch option in multirom not the android , then you will have two buttons toshow where the file are.

Works fine on Nexus 7 HSPA+

Just got it up and running on my Nexus 7 HSPA+. Works great so far! Not sure if I can get my sim card to be recognized by Ubuntu, but I'll work on it today. Thanks for putting this together. This is going to be so useful for testing new roms on the fly.

On another note, has anyone had any trouble getting a BT keyboard to pair in Ubuntu? I have a model: SJYN0700A. It detects it and flashes a password to type for a split second and then goes to a failure message. I'm sure there's some solution online somewhere, but just wanted to see if it was a common problem before digging too much into it. The on screen keyboard will do just fine, if need be.

Edit: Never mind about the keyboard. Forgot that this is a Multirom forum, not an Ubuntu forum. :) Directions are in the Ubuntu wiki
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Rafase282:
Yeah I was thinking about that. If anything it could be applied to /media only.

Also with teh security updates plus proposed updates, it wont boot. So no updating with those yet.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Tasssadar:
@Rafase282: I've just downloaded 8gb ubuntu rootfs.img once again, installed it, and everything works fine. I even updated it with apt-get dist-upgrade, and it is still working okay.

PS: You probably should not add additional ppa's - I've read somewhere on the ubuntu wiki (can't find it now) that packages in /updates ppa are newer than packages from nexus 7 ppa, which are modified for nexus 7, which means the non-modified version would overwrite the ones that are made for nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Rafase282:
I just selected the security updates from the sources and the one bellow it, not backports or pre-release. If you dont select any as it comes, then you can do sudo apt-get upgrade without problems.

I'm currently setting up my sister at work again. I removed the brasero software since I cant burn cd from my nexus7 since I dont have an external cd burner.

I use gnome-shell, but which do you recommend that is lightweight and not too ugly? I want to maximize the speed on this as i will turn it into a server later on.

A server while at home, and a table on the go. Just great.

I'm not sure if adding the medibunto repos is a good idea, probably not.

Is the fact that the ROM is hosted in the sdcard affect the performance ?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] DZonikg:
No

In fact there is no such thing as "the sdcard" anymore. It's all on the same NAND, the "scdard" is only a folder on the /data partition ;)

problem getting gapps on PA

I have stock, ubuntu and PA installed on my tablet right now. I tried installing the gapps after choosing the PA rom and it seemed to install properly, but I still don't have any of the apps(no play store). I also noticed that installing the gapps zip wipes my cache because when I reboot stock, it reloads the apps again. My stock rom works fine. Any thoughts?

One thing I wonder is if my roms need to be at the same version or not? Stock is still at 4.2 while PA is at 4.2.1
[Nexus 7 Original Development] jawonder:
If i'm changing the internal rom do i still have wipe - "Factory Reset", Cache and Dalvik Cache, then do an inject or just install rom and Gapps without wipe then do an inject ?. I'm not sure because in the OP it just says "install zip"could be that he is expecting us to know that we should wipe .
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Tasssadar:
Gimme link to the gapps you are installing and tell me what exactly did you do when installing them.

Depends on the ROM. Generally, if you are switching ROM (not updating it), you should do factory reset.

Would this be doable with multiboot v2?????

[Nexus 7 Original Development] jawonder:
Ok thanks much OP .
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Tasssadar:
I suppose that the thread in Q&A and private message simply were not enough.

Anyway, no. Not yet. The reason is simple: 13.04 is in early stage of developement. Things will change a lot. And did you even read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Nexus7/KnownIssues ? 13.04 is now basically unusable because of the graphics corruption.

I will make support for 13.04 eventually, but as of now, 12.10 is the supported version.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Xentar712:
Here's the link

To install, I did: Advanced->MultiRom->List ROMs->PA beta 5->Flash Zip->Chose zip and swipe.

Normally I wipe cache and dalvik after this but there isn't an option. What's weird is it booted straight to the lockscreen and botted REALLY fast at that. I didnt' have to set up an account or anything(probably from the lack of Gapps).
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Tasssadar:
It failed because of recovery bug, it could not handle ROMs with whitespace in name. Flash new recovery - http://www.mediafire.com/?a2xr8dyxw2hbw2c - and try again.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] -Lawless:
No this is for Touch version.

On Desktop you can indeed see the mouse cursor, though very tiny. (lol everything is tiny on that version with 7" screen)

I also see many lockups on the Desktop version as well.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
As far as I was told here, the lock ups on the Desktop version is caused by a glitch. To bypass it, you need a mouse. As for the Touch version, yes, it is definitely an uncompleted version. The only "stable" releases are the Nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus and even on those I'm hearing LOTS of complaints about glitches, and why they would consider it stable. So if theirs is stable and problematic, imagine ours which is in "pre" status still. Thankfully, we have not been forgotten and that new Nexus 7 is NOT getting much or any attention from the Linux world...
[Nexus 7 Original Development] -Lawless:
So true....so true.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Crossvxm:
Just pray we get a stable release as well instead of the newer Nexus 7. I hear the reason our Nexus 7 was used for testing these OS was because (A) its pretty similar to the Nexus 4 and devices with "Nexus" in the name, and (B) its cheaper to buy, so why not start there?

Others say this Nexus 7 was just a platform for the Nexus smartphones, but I doubt theyre just going to leave us hanging. One of the only devices inhave seen with BIG development being set fourth is this tablet. We have so many roms, so many mods, etc. heck how many people out there aren't wishing they could dual boot desperate ROMs? Aren't we lucky?!

So i assume we may be seeing a stable release before this year ends, or so I hope.

Anything for 4.4

Is there any plan for working with 4.4?

And can you add support for CWM as well. New ROMs don't seem to play well with TWRP.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Tasssadar:
It should work with 4.4 as is, but the kernel sources aren't out yet. For more info read this post in mako section: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47011282#post47011282 - the only difference is that on grouper, you _might_ have to wait for the kernel sources and for patched 4.4 kernel. But, you might just as well try it and see if it works - it won't explode or anything, it just won't boot.

No, CWM is missing like a million features I'm using for MultiROM. Where is this "TWRP does not work with pseudo-4.4 ROMs" coming from? I'd be very unhappy if this became that sort of "common knowledge", which is based of no real evidence.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] EvanA:
It's a bunch of bunk. TWRP 2.6.3 works great with 4.4 Roms.
[Nexus 7 Original Development] Zittoro:
Hi, Tasssadar.

I have been working on downloading & installing system-image of Ubuntu Touch without a computer.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2487059

But when I try to do it on a non-patched recovery,

http://phablet.ubuntu.com/gitweb?p=...recovery.git;a=log;h=refs/heads/phablet-saucy

system-image-installer gives errors that while and rm can't find "ubuntu_command.applying".

So, could you commit system-image installation to your multirom recovery?
[Nexus 7 Original Development] webdroidmt:
Running EvanA's 4.4 build with no problem as a secondary rom/no shared kernel. I didn't expect it to run as a primary rom with multi, due to the fact that the stock kernel that comes with the 4.4 build isn't kexec patched and from what I've tried, (Mkernel and Lean) they're not yet compatible with 4.4.

As for CWM with multi, I can't imagine having to use CWM to navigate through the functions of multi. TWRP 2.6.3 has been outstanding on my N7 for flashing and backup/restore. No disrespect to the CWM devs but I wouldn't use anything but TWRP on my N7 unless I had no choice, like multirom requiring it. :)

Btw, successfully backed up my 4.4 secondary rom and have twice restored it, due to playing around with Xposed Framework. Unfortunately, Xposed does not work (rovo89 is aware) but on a more positive note, Viper audio mod does seem to work.

Newby here.

I just received a notice a couple of days ago that an update is available for my android (I'm running 4.2.2). If my memory serves me correctly, this is not supposed to install if the system is rooted, correct?

But you guys talk about running android version 4.3, even version 4.4. Where do you find the ROMs? In my N7's /cache I note what may be the 4.3 ROM the Android people are wanting to update with (158 MB, named XXXXXX.signed-nakasi-JWR66Y-from-JDQ39.36aa4a7c.zip, dated 29 Oct 13). Would this install using Recovery>Advanced>Multirom>Add Rom>Android etc? And I presume I would need the 4.3 kernel. Would I need to "Share" the kernel. Anything else I would need to do to update to Android 4.3 safely?

Different topic. I have been installing the new Ubuntu Touch ROMs every couple of days, currently running 31 Oct 13 version.

No doubt there is something new "under the hood" in each of these ROMs, but I have not gotten very far with them (yes I have renamed /home/phablet/display-mir to /home/phablet/display-mir.old). I have not been able to get the wi-fi working (I note that some in this thread say they have been able to do so.) UT recognizes my wpa-protected router signal correctly (and others in the neighborhood), but fails to present me with a dialogue box to enter my password. Is there something else I need to be doing to activate the wi-fi, or is it simply not activated yet?

Sorry i cant find out my question.

If i will install a rom for the tilapia i became an error, that the rom is for talapia and the device is a grouper.

I use it on tilapia without any issue. What ROM are you trying to install?

And even if you install grouper ROM on tilapia it should not have any issues. I have PACMAN ROM of grouper as secondary and Kitkat (android 4.4) for grouper on my tilapia. All three including the primary Omni ROM for tilapia work fine

NO. You don't even need to wipe anything on your current ROM as this secondary rom is seperate. Just beware that things on one ROM are seen on the other, so deleting stuff or formatting on one may ruin the other.
