Happened with Chaos and ElementalX

Edit: Updating to MultiRom 20 and 21 from the MultiRom Manager app is when I had a problem. When MultiRom Manager rebooted to flash the MultiRom zip it would install and reboot to fastboot mode.

From there I had to boot recovery then reflash the kernel to the internal rom. Then it boot up normally.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
For sure works on ElementalX by now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Aadilnz:
Edit: Don't worry
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wishmasterf:
Which ROMs do you use with MultiROM?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Tried most of them they all worked great. Only one I had issue with is AOKP but rebooting to recovery and hit button remove boot.img solves it.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GialanG:
I still have the problem with ElementalX 0.21, since MultiRom 20. My N5 got stuck at Google logo and restarted again and again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
I'm unable to reproduce this. I tried a few times, and it works just fine for me, so you're gonna have to provide some more info. Which ROM do you use? Is ElementalX in primary or secondary ROM? Which options do you select when installing ElementalX? Was elementalX installed before or after you installed multirom? When exactly did it stop to work? Can you show me last_kmsg from that failed boot? Can you upload your boot.img which fails to boot (obtained from for example TWRP backup)?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] theknut:
I was about to run CF Auto Root but I figured it wouldn't work if it's on my secondary ROM so I didn't try it. I need to stay on KK for various reasons but I want my L ROM to be rooted as well.

Thanks for your answer.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
So grab cf's supersu zip from his xda thread and flash that through recovery....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
[MENTION=1749264]theknut[/MENTION] If you choose Tasssadar's L ZIP from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=56701012

you'll only need chainfire's SuperSU.

Rooted L and runs as secondary. No fastboot etc. ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mbellot:
Possibly stupid question...

What happens if I install a secondary ROM to USG (OTG) storage and then later reboot without the OTG drive attached?

I'd like to play with L on an external flash drive but want to be sure I won't screw something over in the process.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] physwizz:
No questions are stupid if they are asked sincerely

I do this all the time. I always try out a new rom on usb first. It's no problem. Just don't unplug the usb while that external rom is running.

Later you can transfer the rom to internal memory by backing it up from twrp and then restoring it to internal.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] highKo:
I just tried it as secondary rom but no success. I get stucked at the google logo. not even a boot animation. I use f2fs on my first rom, could it be the fault?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
No idea, to be honest. I never tried f2fs.

But, to be sure: You did download the ROM by [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] and used the stable Update SuperSU 2.16?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] highKo:
i tried without superSU because i wanted to try without root. But I also tried with superSU 2.17 beta (because I didnt find 2.16) -> no success
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
You can (Always) Use http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu for the latest stable release of SuperSU
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bm19981217:
It always boots Android 5.0 (your internal rom)? I think the kernel on your Lollipop has no kexec_hardboot patch. You can install a kexec_hardboot enabled kernel via multirom app or install a custom kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kpjimmy:
Running the latest PA beta and just used multirom for the first time and while it took a good 3-5 mins for Android 5.0 to boot, it works!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kpjimmy:
Reporting back. I have PA running and has my current Moto360 on that. Now when I try to pair it under Android 5.0, it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting constantly. Is it not intended to be a full rom?

Hello evybody, and [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION]

Here is my "problem" :

I'm trying to install build I made based on lollipop sources :hammerhead:5.0.

I have no problem to install it as secondary ROM, but I can't boot on it.﻿

​

My MultiROM Setup :

Internal Rom hammerhead-lrx21o root with CF-Auto-Root-hammerhead-hammerhead-nexus5

Second ROM Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4 (personnal build)

Third ROM Dirty Unicorns 5.0 (personnal build from 18/11/2014) : work great

Forth ROM Dirty Unicorns 5.0 (personnal build from 20/11/2014) : do not boot and shows error | android-5.0.0_r7 | Maybe it is due to "hammerhead: Enable triple buffering :http://gerrit.dirtyunicorns.com/#/c/7326/2/BoardConfig.mk,cm "

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
I'm not sure what made you to comment with abbreviation. That's not nice - at least.

Just saying that TWRP worth lollipop things is out.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Must have left out the :) Sorry. I meant where did you find this but I just saw it this morning.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Oh, I see. NP [emoji2]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
That log says something is wrong with the kernel of that secondary ROM - kexec binary couldn't load the dtb from it. Try uploading your ROM/kernel somewhere for me. Also, saving log into that multirom_log.txt files is broken, it is missing the most important last part. Whoops, v30 with a fix for that is coming soon.

It needs 5.0 android tree to build it, and I simply don't have space for another 30GB+ tree right now. I'm getting a new computer on monday though, and it will have nice 2TB disk, plus I'll finally try out those SSDs everyone is talking about.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
I didn't want to bug you in any way. Sorry if that looks like that. You doing a great job for community and thanks to you we all can play with multiple ROMs all at once. Thanks man ?

2TB SSD? It should cost arm, leg and may be a kidney ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
Nah, it has both HDD and SSD, the ssd is this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KFAGCWK/ref=twister_B00KG8HLLC?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Good value for money, no doubt about that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Gerxp:
I have a problem with MultiRom. I installed it from Playstore.

All is working fine except when I am in recovery and the screensaver kicks in after 30 seconds.

It is like the screensaver locks up and I cannot get the device to wake up with the homebutton anymore.

All I can do is long press Powerbutton.

Anything I can do to solve this?

Hi guys, I decided to give a try (just waiting all backups finish...) and want to install Lollipop as second ROM. Which one do you suggest me? The original factory image provided on the Google developer site or one of the modified roms we can find on this forum?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AA1973:
I would take what [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] has to offer here.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] freshlysqueezed:
I can confirm that Cataclysm and xtrasmooth lollipop Roms work great with multirom. Make sure you have the latest multirom twrp recovery to avoid the SD card bug. If you want root, download the beta versions of SuperSU (2.27). Be patient, the flash will take at least 5 mins. And the first boot also takes a while.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ItachiSama:
[MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION], after some testing I found out that USB cables for my old Samsung phones are not approved by N5 Lollipop.

So, using the original USB cable give me no problems while charging up. :)

I have problems too when booting Kitkat ROMs (didn't test any Lollipop ROM dualboot though); my OmniROM is unusable, this evening I'll try installing KK PA.

Any suggestions/ideas? And also, are there some logs that could be useful for you? If yes which ones?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Not sure what your issues stem from, but I dual boot Mahdi (KK) and Lollipop just fine with no issues. Are you sure your primary ROM has a kernel which has the kexec patch?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ItachiSama:
I've Tasssadar boot.img for Lollipop release, the one you can download from the app (and in the first posts of the thread); as I read, people which have a Lollipop ROM as primary and tries to boot KK secondary ROMs have troubles (in my case, phone stuck at 'Google' bootloader screen), the ones with KK ROM as a primary and L as secondary have no problem.

I initially had purity kk with Franco's kernel as my primary and installed xtrasmooth lollipop as my secondary without problems (it has Franco's kernel built in.). Later, I swapped the two for primary and secondary. Now I have no problems booting into either one.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] harrisonp:
Ever since I put an L ROM as my primary I've been stuck in boot animation. I don't have a spare kitkat rom handy unfortunately. Ugh ugh ugh.

Backup your primary then install your kk ROM as primary. Reinstall the lollipop ROM as secondary. If everything is kosher then swap. [emoji106]

That's correct. If you want to add secondary Roms you need Tasssadar's modified twrp recovery.

Yea that's what I had to do, the question is why? WTF can cause FB to do that?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
FB is a mess. If I don't actually log off at night it will drain the battery all night. I think they are trying to get involved with all aspects of your online life and are throwing hooks into everything in sight. Best bet is to just use the web version and get rid of the app. But easier said than done sometimes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Diesel6401:
Yup I agree it's horrendous and continues to add more junk w/o ever fixing the bugs they have. I have 3 kids under 3, if all my family wasn't on FB I wouldn't even have it. They like pics of the kids and the app makes it easier to upload vs the browser, but this is ridiculous.

I've got problem with multirom.

I copied my current rom (working perfectly fine) from primary to secondary and before flashing I decided to boot into it - and voila - stuck on boot animation. Looks something wrong with multirom.

I'm using multirom for long long period of time and did rom swap many times. I know how it works, but it doesn't work for me right now. What I'm doing wrong?

Yep same here I get bootloop every time I swap cm12 or liquidsmooth
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Spectrum75:
For multiple reasons depending mainly in some Roms/Kernels ( or Multirom or TWRP at the current state ),

some Roms, although they are flashed normally with no obvious errors, cannot be booted as secondary but only in Primary slot.

Idk about CM or LS but the last days i was playing with OptiPop ( with CodeBlue ) and i saw the "problem".

In the meanwhile both [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5105835]Cl3Kener[/MENTION] released some patches/kernels that fix the problem.

Maybe there are same solutions in other cases but due to no time, haven't tried them.

Check CodeBlue OP and Chet's G+ and maybe you will find something that fixes your problem. ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Exactly my case - code blue kernel. In the beginning I was suspecting the kernel, but when I could not boot the copy of the ROM from primary skit which had been copied to the secondary...

And you absolutely right - that happens solely to very rare combination of ROM + kernel + secondary slot. Like in my case that's simple AOSP +code blue. This ROM and kernel working perfectly fine separately, but to our them together - here we go. I'm not sure why, just my 5 cents.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Spectrum75:
[MENTION=296959]starche_old[/MENTION]

Well in that case i suppose, if you will use the patch form CodeBlue's OP, you will be fine,

for me it worked perfect. idk if you will need a dirty or clean flash of secondary rom. :angel:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Which patch u r taking about? Just checked twice...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Spectrum75:
Maybe twice but not nice...:p

Last paragraph, last 2 "spots" :

"New multi mount doesn't play well with MultiROM on secondary ROMs, I asked [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] if it can be fixed.

In the meanwhile, if you want to use Code_Blue in secondary ROMs, just flash

this zips

after the kernel according to your data partition type: EXT4 or F2FS"

Check again CodeBlue's OP ;)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 1970mueller:
I'm also encountering the seemingly endless bootloop at startup on secondary rom. It's not that random, it's happening on both minimus and rastapop. It actually will boot, you just have to wait like an hour! And once it is booted, the whole system runs super slow speed, like 10% of normal, so it SUCKS! I'll try the patch you linked to and code blue kernel and report back.

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:04 PM ----------

edit - so no luck with adding in code blue and the patch :( I also added a 2nd secondary ROM, Syko's Frank... same issue, taking forever to boot.

Seems like something since the new 5.0.1 came out the issue is there for everyone...?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
No issues here, flash the rom, flash codeblue, flash the file you need (EXT4 or F2Fs Patch), flash SuperSu, reboot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 1970mueller:
I tried that, on 2 different ROMS with no success. I'm uninstalling multirom and trying again....

update... after uninstall/install multirom, then flashed the ROM (and gapps!), codeblue, patch, su.. and boot time was normal for first boot. Still wondering why stock kernel is slowing things down... hopefully it get's fixed so we can only use Code Blue with patch on secondary roms...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 4boky:
What determines whether a rom would work or not as a secondary rom? Would a rom have to have multirom compatibility and/or a specific kernel needs to be included in the rom?
