[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] djigane:
I love the new name of your app, it's more non-personal ;)

You should really think of releasing it on Playstore ...
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
One of our team already found someone who can publish it on play store. Btw nexus 10 got romswitcher support
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] djigane:
Great ! Btw, do you think that it will be possible to choose "at boot" (just after the "Samsung GT-I9500" message and before boot animation) which Rom we want to boot ?

I mean instead of booting first in one Rom, and switch to the other one, have just like a dual boot screen/choice between Roms asking which ROM we want to run from ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
It's possible but it will be a lot harder to port it on other devices and we cannot use 2 different kernels anymore that means no perseus D:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] palexis06:
It's work on N7000? If not will it be functional someday?

"mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p20", "/system");"

this line is there twice in ur pac man rom latest version, so do I have to replace both the lines. Also a doubt I'm having.....Do I have to wipe the data for the 2nd OS in root explorer or through recovery.

---------- Post added at 04:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 AM ----------

Any one here who has done the dual boot could please upload a tutorial video of the whole process? Would be a great help for all here.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] djigane:
As you've started this project for i9500, can you kindly consider to make this as a personal challenge for our beloved device?

Maybe releasing two apps? The general one for all devices and a special one for i9500?

It will be amazing!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
I thought about an app like RomSwitcher Utilities which can remove the 2nd rom, wipe data and cache and more features. But first I want to get App sharing to work

Hi [MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] pls help. I tried to do as u instructed but I'm booting on PAC Rom-----looks like PAC MAN has taken over the world.

FYI I have done exactly as instructed.

1) I was on Arrow latest version 7.0 ROM with Perseus kernel

2) I was on cofface recovery & then I changed my recovery to TWRP & all went fine no issues.

3) then I went on to flash both the PAC Rom & then the GAPPS zip file (after editing the updater script & zipping it back)

4) At last I flashed the Persues kernel again. & I selected to reboot & Here I was stuck on the pac rom boot screen.

What did I do wrong? I have a doubt about the size of the zip files after editing the updater script. Both the Gapps & Rom file got bigger in size.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
Good to see you working hard. Tbh, I didn't expect any high development for the I9500 when I purchased the device. I came from the S2 which was a complete exynos fiasco. I don't mean to butter you up but it's developers such as yourself that make me proud to be an I9500 user.

Thank you for all your efforts, sir. :good:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
rom cannot get bigger

you did something wrong at packing the rom
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Nasty_z:
Remember that the updater-script of the pacman/AOSP rom has two lines which consist of mmcblk0p20 (they begin with mount) . Both these lines need to be changed to mmcblk0p19 with the exception of the line which says format blah blah mmcblk0p20 <-- this line has to be removed from the updater script.

So you do the above after flashing a stock rom such as the arrow rom like you mentioned. It isn't a requirement to flash perseus after flashing arrow rom, nor should you flash it after flashing the AOSP rom. ( Apologies if this confuses you, actually I do it this way for my 2nd roms and haven't run into any issues )

To summarise:

1 Flash stock rom

2 Flash the updater-script edited AOSP rom zip and the gapps zip edited

3 Reboot your phone, if you did the editing of the updater-script properly, you would boot into your stock Samsung rom.

4 Install the RomSwitcher app and let it download files

5 After the download completes, open the app again and switch to AOSP rom.

6 Enjoy dual boot :cool:

If you still have a problem, zip your meta-inf folder from both pacman and gapps and pm them to me and I'll send you the properly edited ones. Additionally, if I remember it right, Grarak has released both the gapps and pacman rom modified to work as 2nd rom. You should find it in 6th page I think. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] croach246:
Or download the pre-edited zips on the 6 (or abouts page) and follow said instructions. dload flash latest persues too btw.

Hi Grarak, when editing the code in dogas carbon rom latest build, I noticed I have two repeated lines of code:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p20", "/system");

You want us to change 20->19 in your OP. Do u change both lines of code? Or is this weird and this line should not be repeated... I'm using DB text editor btw. Thanks.

Great work buddy

Downloading soon

I read the entire op and just have a few minor queries

1) I am on arrow v6 , so first I gotta flash ur kernel ,then any aosp rom , then gapps and reboot . No wipes anywhere?

2) since I will b able to boot aosp and tw roms , in case while porting aosp based roms ,the phone doesn't boot into aosp , will it affect my tw rom?

3)if I wish to change my tw rom , will the aos0 rom be affected if I DO NOT WIPE DATA ?

4)my apps installed on tw rom will not b viable on aosp and vice versa ,right?

5)if I wish to flash a mod for a specific tw rom , is there any special procedure so as to it doesn't try to apply mod on aosp rom?
