Hello everyone,

After installed latest Pac rom as second rom, everything was working fine, seen all my apps from Tw in Pac, but now i'm stuck on the samsung logo when trying to boot into Tw (first rom) via rom switcher app.

I am on latest Crash Rom.

Any help, please ?

Solution

Go to RomSwitcher App > General and enable manual boot, don't use the RS app for switching between roms, but instead use manual boot to switch between roms. I've had no problem since I started using manual boot.

[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Arjav23:
[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] , i found out something important

As u know, i was having a tough time getting Perseus + root on 4.3

that issue got solved by Flashing crash v10 + perseus kernel by [MENTION=4648515]AL_IRAQI[/MENTION] + SuperSUfixer ( i dont know if it was necessary to flash the fixer)

So i was basically on crash v10 with perseus 12.2 with root

i opened romswitcher app and it said that new kernel installed , reboot?

I rebooted

upon reboot i found out that the perseus kernel now installed had the l2_hsic wakelock

So i flashed the one by AL_IRAQI again.

I was just wondering, whether this kernel ( that the romswitcher app installs) is the one extracted from download.zip which is that second boot.ig or smth like that???

If yes, then can i replace that boot.img with the that AL_IRAQI has made so that i dont get any wakelocks??
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] G3cooldude:
I'm too facing a similar issue with kernel.

Does the romswitcher app download a modified kernel specially for quad booting?

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION] new version perseus kernal 14 released..

https://github.com/AndreiLux/Perseus-UNIVERSAL5410/wiki
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] D™:
Perseus alpha14 (07/11):

This is a release for 4.3 onwards. 4.2.x is no longer supported, please refer to 12.2 for the last working version for 4.2.

This includes a partial merge with Samsung's sources, which include:

Updated GPU drivers.

Updated Wifi drivers include new packet filter rules for less network spam.

Updates sensorhub firmwares.

Updates modem drivers.

Better audio decoding on the SRP and block bypass for high quality audio, better frequency handling on the hardware level.

Batter impedance-dependant volume normalization (Headphones).

Small updates for all IP accelerator and function block drivers.

Better memory management; Migration and compaction are now enabled. The new LMK has a new mechanism for immediately freeing up memory for the ISP for faster camera start-up times.

Various other miscellaneous fixes.

The kernel runs with SELinux disabled. It does not contain any of the TIMA related patches. On Samsung ROMs, it will automatically disable the relevant build.prop entries for correct runtime.

The kernel will remove the main KNOX related APKs from the ROM by itself.

The kernel auto-roots Samsung ROMs.

AOSP 4.3 is supported.

I flashed supersu from original recovery and it fixed root.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] tollboy:
May be I am doing something wrong.

This is what I have tried.

1. ) FLashed Stock ROM

2.) Flashed perseus kernel to remove knox, install root and SuperSU

3.) Installed ROm switcher, given name to roms.

4.) Downloaded download.zip and started the app again.

5.) Kernel installed reboot the fone.

6.) WHen rebooted the root is broken :mad:

Can someone tell me why.

Hello Garak,

Yes I have tried re flashing the SuperSu.

Its not working. Tried rooting again with cf_root as well. But it didnt work.

Finally I have flashed perseus again from recovery for gaining the root access. But the again romswitcher discard this and say kernel installed reboot. After rebooting same story again :(.

I guess you are using modified perseus for romswitcher? You can keep the su binary intact in the kernel package as kept by perseus original kernel.

Good news for you guys

After playing around with my old phone I got an idea

You know that manualboot is a good alternative to romswitcher app but it always does a complete reboot and that sucks. I think that direct loading the rom is much faster and better. So I will try to get this work at the weekend.

Foldermount problem?

[MENTION=4443334]Grarak[/MENTION]

I am using PAC rom as a second rom, and foldermount app http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192122 doesn't work there, but it is working in the first rom (wanamlite 4.3).

when I want to choose the source path in foldermount app, it shows me this path: /storage/emulated/0 , but its empty, why?

even /data/media/0 is empty, so where is the path of my internal sdcard in second rom?

when I was in first rom, this path was showing me my internal sdcard.

please anyone tried foldermount in second rom and was able to bind something?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
If sdcard is not avaiable then the game related stuff are in /data/media
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] powermax91:
But as I say in my previous post , data/media/0 is empty in second rom.

When I open root explorer and go to this path : /storage/emulated/0 it show me my internal sdcard,

but the same path is empty in foldermount , why? is /storage/emulated/0 a link to another folder so that foldermount cant access it because its already mounted?

I hope you understand what I mean.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Original Android Development] Grarak:
Did i say data/media or data/media/0 ?

Thank you man, IT WORKS.

I navigate to .firstrom/media/0 in foldermount app, and it shows me my internal sdcard,

then I bind something from external sdcard to internal sdcard (.firstrom/media/0 ) and it binds successfully, and its shows correctly in /storage/emulated/0 .

Thanks again for the help, I appreciate it.
