Issue multirom manager. SOLVED

After install the deb recovery (TWRP_multirom_deb_20140605.img) with multirom manager app, i can boot in recovery and all seems work correct.

Now i boot normally open multirom manager app and say "MultiROM recovery is not installed. Failed to download info about updates!".

Download the TWRP_multirom_deb_20140605.img, flash with fastboot without errors, run multirom manager and says recovery is not installed.

Any suggestion?

Many thanks

EDIT:

After wipe cache and data in multirom manager app, all seems be fine

[MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] I know that OmniROM's OTA is supported by MultiROM but is AOSPA's?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
I dunno, try it. If it works with normal TWRP, it should work correctly with MultiROM. Backup your primary ROM before you try it though.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] bgiesing:
Success, it does work. One thing though... It isn't very clear that it is using a specific ROM (unlike the Backup screen which adds a red text to the title bar.) Do you think you could possibly add that for ROM OTAs also?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
Good idea, will be in next recovery release.

Wait for the OTA, let it download, boot into TWRP, select the rom, navigate to where the OTA is (/cache) then flash it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] StuMcBill:
I just downloaded the OTA, but it doesn't seem to be in /cache?

I'm not planning on flashing it yet though, the app I use my stock install for is not compatible with 4.4.3 yet (Sky Go).

Make sure you're looking in the right /cache, you can use a root explorer if you have to within the ROM with the OTA and move it to your sdcard if it makes it easier.

How do i install the latest ubuntu touch on a usb drive?

The recovery should be updated to let us use the img files for installation.. it still require's zip's and i can't find those for the latest versions, so it's quite unusable..

The reason i wan't to do it manually trough recovery (and possibly on an external USB drive) is that i need to make the partitions bigger to be able to install more software..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
Flash the stock system.img or restore a nandroid of system from before you flashed those optimized dalvik binaries.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Since all secondary ROMs exist in /data/media/0/multirom/roms, if I intend to share specific files/folders (e.g. some games' data) between ROMs, can I simply make symlinks between respective locations, or are the symlinks to primary ROM ineffective when booted into secondary ROMs?

Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM11
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
Ineffective, use TB to sync game data between roms. At best, you MIGHT be able to store game data for some games on sdcard which is shared, then use symlinks in both roms pointing to that...never tried it but it should/could work, permissions allowing.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Bummer. The sdcard sharing method doesn't work also: I symlinked both ROMs' game data to a file on the sdcard, and the game does read out the data nicely on both ROMs, but when there's an operation that needs to WRITE to the save file, the symlink is overwritten by an actual file, breaking the symlink and rendering the method useless...

Dammit, I just hate having to backup and restore data just because I randomly want to switch to another OS... (TB doesn't work well for one of my games, so I have to manually sync its data which gets kinda annoying)

(Maybe I should just give up on this MultiROM thingy and just hope Google will one day add TabletUI back...)

On my nexus 4 I updated to the latest recovery and now the app is telling me that multirom recovery is not installed even though it is. I'm on the latest modified recovery 4/06/2014 I think it is. It has the multi ROM sections and I also get the ROM selection on boot. Tried to reflash but still doesn't recognize. Any ideas???

That's the problem it is the modified one that was downloaded and installed by the app. It has the multi ROM section and everything and it's working it's just the app doesn't know it's there for some reason.

I know it's probably too early to tell but maybe if someone makes a flashable rom and kernel out of the L release preview image, we will be able to dualboot it along with any other rom right?

Anyways, as soon as I get my hands on these I´ll try to install it and report back :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] AndyYan:
I think the process could be made even easier, given that MultiROM supports installing a secondary ROM from nandroid backups. If we could have Android L Preview rooted and recovery'd by tomorrow, we could just do a nandroid, revert to our previous ROM, load MultiROM and load Android L Preview from nandroid.

Of course, these are all speculations, whether these'll come true largely depends on whether the Preview image is rootable and recovery-compatible.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
MultiROM v25 adds support for the Android L preview. I've also made flashable ZIP images which you can use to flash the preview as secondary ROM to MultiROM. These are also slightly modified to fix SuperSU - you still have to flash it separately (the zip is not pre-rooted), but it will work. You also need SuperSU 2.00. Also, the first boot takes ages because ART.

The Android L preview is not as smooth as current stable 4.4.4. I'm not sure if it is because it is preview or because MultiROM is messing up something - can somebody who installed it without MultiROM confirm or deny that? Thanks.

The MultiROM Manager android app doesn't work on the L preview because of the SELinux changes - I know about it and will fix it...soon.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
Let's start over.

What device do you have? If you have a N7 2013 wifi, then you want the MR for flo. Hammerhead if for the N5.

...also, get this: http://www.winmd5.com/ run it, drag the zip into the window, and see if the resulting md5sum is the same as I posted.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] intraCore:
Nexus 5 (hammerhead). I'm on Android 4.4.4 with MultiROM v25 and MultiROM's custom TWRP both installed by MultiROM's Android app. I also installed the stock 4.4.4 kernel with the kexec patch from the same app. I'm trying to "add ROM" in TWRP with the flashable .zip from a few posts before this. That's the error I get when trying to do so. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
This is for the Nexus 7 2013 wifi. You will need a flashable zip for the Hammerhead, the zip in this thread (note the name of the forum you're in, "Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development") will never work on your device.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] jthompson0019:
No offense but I don't have multirom on my tab, had way to many issues, which was prob my fault. But was wondering if the zip is fine to flash without multirom?

sorry, I don't have multirom. I just wanted to try this because of this post. I figured the zip file will work even without having multirom
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
No, this is for MultiROM, you can use the factory image directly if you do not have MultiROM (that is probably what Tasssadar is referring to). Yes, make a nandroid, you should be able to restore it just fine if you want to go back, you will have to boot or flash custom recovery again to go back.

Frankly, if I were you, I'd just install MultiROM, there's no reason not to, IMHO.

EDIT: Found this in Nexus 5 Android L thread. From user [MENTION=4316709]savoca[/MENTION]

Flash SuperSU, then fastboot flash this boot.img, then you have root.

hi click me

http://imgur.com/4tobGiF

EDIT: Gather round guys.

Lots of you are complaining that apps like titanium backup and helium are crashing or just not working. And the popular thing to do is complain that there is no /system write access, buuuut, there is system write access. I'll admit it, at first instinct I thought this was the case too. Upon further inspection, it looks like root app developers are going to need to the new security contexts when they run an elevated command. This will explain why some of your apps can write to system and some cannot. I know Root Explorer has been properly updated, for example. If you'd like to read up more, check this link out. Credit to [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] for the bits n bolts.

Now that that's cleared up, here's a flo boot.img I don't have it, but the method was the same, give it a swing.

I'm getting download unsuccessful on L as my secondary in MultiROM.. Does anyone know if something changed with sdcard permissions that would make downloads fail? I see my file explorer app can't read Download either.. :confused:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] mdamaged:
i'd guess your permissions got messed up, I'd check them.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] osm0sis:
They look fine.. Still all 1023:1023 (media_rw). Oh well. I just booted back into KitKat, checked Tasss' boot.img and found why stock root isn't working out-of-the-box: they changed the location of install-recovery.sh to /system/bin/

So either change that back to etc in the ramdisk (init.rc), or move the script via recovery (adb shell or AROMA Filemanager). :good:

Edit: The latter is easier said than done for a secondary ROM, so I guess the ramdisk fix + reflash would be easiest. Or you could mod the SuperSU 2.00 zip to put install-recovery.sh in /system/bin instead.

Dunno then...Wrong bootloader maybe?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Ah interesting.. is it root.sdcard_r on L or KitKat for you? It used to be media_rw:media_rw on KitKat, at least up to 4.4.2. Must be part of them locking down the folders to the specific apps, like Chainfire was saying.
