Wallpaper is from the Carbon Wallpaper chooser from Carbon ROM

The orange navbar keys and status bar icons are custom color settings in the Carbon ROM Options.

I have custom colors set to hex code #ffff5200.

EDIT: I'm going to try using that image from the rs.zip with fastboot to see if i can manually enter the rom switcher recovery now that I'm at my desktop and have adb/fastboot access.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neejay:
Sweet, thanks a lot! (I use Carbon, but it's still affected like CM roms)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
Using Pacman and process.android.phone keeps stopping when it installs the kernel. I reflash ROM and its fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I'm not being able to get the 2nd ROM rooted.

I'm using Slim + SuperSu in the 1st ROM and each 2nd ROM I install loses root...

It makes almost useless this way. What am I doing wrong? Or, better, what's the solution for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
There is no fix yet

As I told you before I didn't add support for supersu
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Sorry, miss that. Let's wait then. Thanks.

Ok I need following stuff:

data/media/rs folder

Logcat

Updater script of the rom
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I'll need to install the ROM again as I'm trying to find a "good" 2nd ROM and I'm testing many of them.

But, don't forget, I'm not being able to boot it once even... How would I run logcat? Where is the "updater script" of the ROM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Installing CyanogenMod (nightly 28th) and also crDroid (cm-10.2-20131026-crDroid-build16-maguro) both give the error "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" in the setup process. I'm flashing gapps from 20130813.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Read some previous posts

I said that the ramdisk is outdated

If I get time I would fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
Would this also be the same issue for PAC?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
I think so

Will update everything

Don't worry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Well, at least I could boot PAC as 2nd ROM and even share apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
Yea, my issue is I'm on pacman and trying to install the kernel. I'll try out something else..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Oh... Use PAC as 1st ROM... I've managed to use it as 2nd...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Yesterday we had an update of the download.zip. Is it the update you're talking about or not yet?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
No, I have to fix the OTA update

sorry for that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Thanks. By the way, seems that I've flashed other kernel and when I've booted the 1st (only) ROM the app downloaded the update and applied it automatically when I just open it. Isn't it wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
No, at startup it will check if gk is installed if not it will flash
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
So, basically, I should not run the app if I want to keep, for a while, other kernel. Is it right?

My only con with the gk is the performance (compared to lean kernel, for instance).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Yes don't open the app

gk's cpu voltages are all uc to save battery
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I agree that the default should be that ones. But... Geeks love performance :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Update is here!

checkout OP for changelog

please delete /sdcard/romswitcher to update

and I added a requested feature: (instructions are in OP)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
This the only change? The ramdisk issue still persistent?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
So my issue right now is that the app isnt installing the kernel, so i read a few pages bakc to manually flash the kernel. so i try:

fastboot flash boot second.img

and that hangs on google logo. Is that the correct command to flash the kernel? or am i missing something
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
There is a changelog

Logs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dasche:
My problem is that I am unable to get into rs recovery, or boot my first rom after installing second rom. Right, I can get into TWRP recovery or boot second rom which just stucks at boot animation.

I have installed the second.img manually via fastboot but there is no change. I only want to get back to my first rom but how?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tobiascuypers:
Just flash a different kernel via fast boot. Or reflash your ROM with out a wipe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dasche:
already flashed two different kernels (stock and mpo) via fastboot but still could not boot my first rom.

So the only option is re-flash my first rom via TWRP.

Update: I re-flashed my first rom. Now all is well. I am not going to use rom switcher again as it caused me 4 hours of headache.

for other users: Do Not try OMNI or ARHD as your second/third/fourth rom, cause boot loops.

Thanks for the great app but I think it is Alpha version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lesicnik1:
OmniROM worked for me as the second ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Install busybox from play store

Seems like roottools is broken on 4.3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I'm rebooting and the app is being started showing an update is available.

Imho, or the app does not start automatically or it does not install the kernel automatically.

Both means we cannot choose to use, temporarily, a different kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I think the cm/crDroid issues (ramdisk) are not solved in this update. Am I wrong?

Other point, sometimes, after installing the 2nd ROM and flashing gapps, the new restart just hang. Removing the battery and allowing normal startup enter in the boot menu and allow to boot the 2nd ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
It should work

I updated the ramdisk

What build of cm do you use?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I've tested some minutes ago one of the latest nightly cm (cm-10.2-20131030-NIGHTLY-maguro).

It booted with the phone process crashing... Cannot go through the setup of the phone...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Will fix that later

Currently busy with kk have to remove some libs to get a working build
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
So updated!

4.4 should work too

here is a flashable zip if you have problems with the app

http://d-h.st/xj7
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I've open the app, the kernel was downloaded, reboot, then I try to open the app and it says the kernel was flashed and need to reboot. Then it happens the same and the same again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
logs?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Well, I'm trying to install the 2nd ROM as the boot menu is working. Will try to open logcat next time.

By the way, was the superuser issue in 2nd-5th ROM solved or only the first one could be rooted with SuperSu?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
No I didn't fix that

Try that:

Delete romswitcher folder

Download the file with the app

Go to playstore install busybox

Open busybox and hit install

Open the app and let it install
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Ok. Waiting then, otherwise su + 4.3 (and 4.4) won't work, at least, with some apps.

I've deleted the romswitcher folder at the first time.

Doesn't the busybox of Slim Rom work? Why I need the busybox from Play?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Just do it

or flash the zip which I posted
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I've flashed the zip (really do not like BusyBox from Erickson).

But when I boot again and open the app, it says the kernel is installed and asked me to boot.

When booting, no boot menu and boot the 1st ROM...

I've booted in TWRP and flashed the zip again. No luck.

Which is the exact sequence to get it working back?

By the way, is there a way to delete manually the 2nd-5th ROM to recover sdcard space?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lesicnik1:
I'm also getting the "Kernel has been installed. Reboot now?" issue with the latest update.

Things I've tried:

-Install busybox

-Delete romswitcher folder (multiple times)

-Used the flashable zip

-Flashed boot.img manually using fastboot

From the FAQ:

I assume you just have to delete those folders.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Thanks. Recovered 2Gb. :o

Now, waiting for the bug solution and try KitKat in the second ROM. Waiting for su in other ROMs and... be happy with this awful tool :cowboy:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Did exactly what you wrote down.

Did not work.

Is there a way to turn back to the old version just for me to test some things? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Steam.:
Do not have my SGN with me atm, does this kernel include sound control?High perf sound, headphone boost (the latter is important to me)

You can get this with Trickster app, afaik.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Steam.:
Yeah I know but these options are on a kernel level and not just the app.Most of the features are listed in the OP, just wanted to make sure if it's there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creepy33:
I have stock 4.3 Rom & Kernel, Root (last SuperSu) & Busybox. When I tried your app, it downloaded the zip, restarted and then I lost the Root (SuperSu put me a message...) & when I reopen the app it purpose me to reboot again. (I used a backup to restore everything, I'm waiting for some help)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
As far I know, it changes at kernel level. When you flash a new kernel, you need to apply the changes again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
I think I found the error

Unzipping is not working correctly
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Ok it should work now

Please redownload the rs app and delete rs folder
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Did. First reboot directly into 1st ROM.

Running the app again it says "Kernel has been installed. Reboot now?" again.

Loop.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
What loop? Bootloop?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I can't enter in the app, can't choose ROM, can't get into the recovery.

The loop of opening the app, installing the kernel, rebooting, boot first ROM, open the app and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
did you reinstalled the app?

and please install busybox from playstore
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Sorry. It's working now after downloading and reinstalling the app.

But now it's stopping infinitely at "Grab first.img from your device" message.

Well, decided to do everything again, delete folders, uninstall app.

Reinstall app, open it, the files are downloaded and the kernel installed.

Reboot. Nothing, the 1st ROM is loaded.

Going to app again I got the kernel installation loop again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Grarak, any news?

I was thinking it would be possible to install KitKat as a second ROM and test it.

Issues (with the latest version of RomSwitcher):

1. Lost of root (su).

2. Requires CWM beta recovery (don't know it RS recovery is prepared for 4.4).

3. Loop reboot when installing RomSwitcher and kernel.

I can test without root (of course it will limit the ROM and app potential), but at least it needs to be possible to install the ROM...

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
I will update everything don't worry

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:
Yes you can
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] betizad:
I'm able to boot to recovery but when I try to flash the new rom "SlimKat" after loading scripts, it tells me something went wrong, please send me the recovery.log

Where is this file and is there any solution you know?

Update: I have CWM 6.0.4.4 nightly touch, and I'm able to boot to RS recovery. My first rom is still booting fine.

Update2: The problem was that there was space in the file path, corrected and it flashes well.

Now the problem is that I get stuck on google logo after selecting 2nd rom to boot. I can see the device via ADB but when I run adb logcat I get the following error:

"- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2) -"

something is wrong!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
I can't do anything to get RomSwitcher to work again...

I run the app, the kernel should be installed, reboot, enter automatically in ROM 1, run the app... loop...

I've tried everything from uninstalling, removing the folders, rebooting, flashing the ROM again, installing...

:crying::crying::crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grarak:

Try to install again

Will try to fix that at the weekend

Uninstall RomSwitcher App

Install the app

this version should give you a huge performance improvement!

Can you tell me what version you use?

Or provide me a download link

nope sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Technical:
Grarak, we're almost in perfection.

Issues corrected:

1. Kernel download and install. No loop anymore (although, strangely, the "download.zip" repeated 3 or 4 times... Don't know why),

2. Root of the 2nd ROM.

Improvements:

1. Kernel overclock to 1350MHz.

2. Lack of information about the "hyper" governor (and a little comparison with "interactive" and "on demand").

Personal problems with the 2nd ROM: I can't get WiFi with SlimKat 4.4.

Will try to find more information about it.

Experience: never share app settings between ROMs of different version (in my case, 4.3.1 and 4.4). The mess will require to restore a nandroid.

You could put the kernel in a zip to install recovery, for which we do not want to install the apk.

If I enable App and Data Sharing, will the data be duplicated and use double space?

Also, my primary ROM is 4.3 and I'll be installing a KitKat ROM next to it, but I wanna use Osmosis' kernel for KitKat, is that possible?

10.1?

This only supports 4.3 and 4.4

I won't recommend you to use data sharing. And no, theres won't be duplicated space.

Ramdisk is open source you can compile your own kernel

Well I don't know how to do that. :(

What will happen if I straightaway flash a different kernel?

Just putting it here, second ROM (cm-11-20131116.1412-SKANKY-maguro) failed to connect to WiFi, it gets stuck at "Obtaining IP address...".

If the issue persists, I will edit this post to include a logcat. Otherwise, you can treat this issue as non-existent.
