am on room switcher currently

ist room Barebone V3.0

2nd room CM 11 Alberto96 build.

so far i haven't applied doga.ozkaraca fixed for Viper but i think the Mic is not that bad though, at least its ok

i have an attention of installing PacRom as 3rd ROM but am kind of worried cuz in CM 10.2 the MIC issue is really kind of worst compare to CM 11,

i don't know if Perseus Kernel+doga.ozkaraca fixed will make a positive effect on PacRom regarding to the MIC if i should made it my 3rd Rom.

Backup?

What if I do a Nandroid Backup from the CWM recovery(Primary recovery)..Is it gonna back up all the Roms and everything?:confused::fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] MajorAly:
Having an issue...

Downloaded and installed the .apk. Followed the instructions and at the step where it says to open the app again once the download finishes, the download.zip is unsuccessful in downloading.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] ChampMEon:
This is a bit weird. I never get prompted to reboot. It just keeps downloading the download.zip. After the download is finished, I should re-open the app, but all it does is redownloads the .zip everytime I reopen the app. I have installed busybox and I am running Prism Barebone 4.3

What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Edit: So I have finally passed that step, but when trying to extract the .zip, it says that its a bad zip file....

How can I get a logcat if my rom isn't booting
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] pinktheater:
I was thinking the same thing.

I installed the apk, opened it, named the two ROMs, downloaded the data, got a message saying that "kernel was installed reboot now".

Once I reboot it get to the Samsung logo and then black screen and there's no way to get into the phone again (unless I do a nandroid recover). :confused:

I was using RomSwitcher at maguro.

Now I'm at S4-I9505. I know it was asked before, but it was on September...

Does it work with I9505 yet?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
this is only for i9500

i9505 has other methods for dualbooting or multibooting
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Technical:
Thanks. The other methods seems much more complicated than the usual GraKernel/RomSwitcher I was used to. They require a lot of handling.

Well, sorry if if was asked a lot of times before, but do you intend to develop it?

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] pippideniro:
by default the Kernel for Barebone ROM 3.0 is Perseus Kernel which also uses same Kernel with RomSwitcher.

while Omega 17 which is the latest build by default uses Adam Kernel. although i never tried roomswitcher on Omega Rom so if u wish u use omega rom u can give a try because according to OP tutorial, any stock rom should work better.

Once u install busybox on your device u have to open the app and install again with normal installation by selecting the button next to the uninstall and restore button on the.screen shot. Usually it has 2.options. normal install and smart install. Use normal install.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] alvin14:
Busybox version/wrong version etc does not prevent a boot, its the modified kernel installed by rom switcher that causes that, if a wrong version of busybox(if there is such) is installed, rom manager would just crash when you try to start it. it would not pass that. also busybox is free from the play store. please use the official copy from there. It seems the latest modified kernel is not working as i to is having the same problem. It doesn't pass boot after kernel installation.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] churrolakra:
Hello everyone... I have a question..

I ve installed romswitcher apk.. the app flashed the new kernel.. I rebooted the phone, opened the app again and switched to second rom

BUT I didnt flash the RS recovery.. so when I rebooted I got stuck at omega rom boot logo (I think it is because I never installed the second rom)..

I ve entered TWRP and flashed perseus kernel and now the phone booted and eveything works.. but I dont have dual boot :D

What should I do? Because when I open romswitcher It automatically flashes for me the new kernel and I got stuck at boot logo.

Is there a way to make romswitcher/new kernel use first rom again? Or maybe A way to flash rs recovery so I can install the second rom?
