Supposedly you can get it by holding volume up while connecting USB to PC (from powered off state).

Yes...boot loader must have been borked. The culprit was using Flashify to flash stock 4.4.4 kernel from the primary ROM while on MultiRom.

The new build fixed the sdcard content disappearing issue. The camera is unable to take any pictures though. When you wipe /data entirely, it works. But with other KK ROMs previously booted, the camera app just freezes, crashes and the app is anable to connect to the camera again.

But very nice work on the redesign. And I love that pong easter egg. The automated player is a bit too good. :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TrainNanpaMaster:
This has probably been addressed before. Maybe even in the post above me. But during the process of flashing Android L as secondary, the screen went black and I did a force restart. Upon booting into my primary ROM at that point, I got a message that my sd card had been removed.

Looking in my file manager, a '0 folder' has been 'magically' created, and now multirom manager doesn't think that multirom is installed, even though it still appears to be my recovery. Subsequently, I'm no longer able to get past the Google boot logo on any installed secondary rom. Does anyone know what's going on? This is super frustrating, don't want to have to reformat, or factory reset my phone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shhbz:
update: it was the problem with the otg maybe the drivers of the otg has gone corrupt so this is how I solved it

format using sd formatter -select option-format type-quick, format size adjustment-on---now format the otg drive

insert the otg in phone and let it get recognised by the phone, now boot into recovery it will detect the otg fine

note:this problem happens when the otg is not unmounted and pulled out in hurry so after that is does not get detected,maybe this can help others who have landed into this issue and to confirm formatting the otg via windows7 wont help so u need to use sd formatter

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hookmt:
Hmmm. If you are talking about settings in th MultiROM Manager, I don't have autoboot settings. I also looked in the boot menu, but don't see this. However, I believe I found the culprit. Seems to happen whenever I update Franco (not sharing kernel if that makes a difference). It's, as I say, an easy fix.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mojolive:
I am having some problems to update Multirom TWRP.. I am for some reason stuck on V2.6.3.0 and i am trying to update to V2..6.3.4 -

I installed Multi rom via the play store app, and then I found it was an older version.. so i thought that I could just update the Multirom TRWP part..

I have downloaded the multirom TWRP from the OP, which is

Modified recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.4): TWRP_multirom_hammerhead_20131224.img

So I flash it in flashboot,, it says copying and written, successful. also tried using flashify, but when booting back into the TWRP recovery it says V.2.6.30..

what am I doing wrong? everything i have tried.. still will not get me updated..

This is the file i downloaded and flash in fashboot

- "Modified recovery (TWRP_multirom_hammerhead_YYYYMMDD.img) - download the IMG file from second post and use fastboot or Flashify app to flash it."

but no luck.. any help please:)

great rom

hey, i had everything working fine on my nexus 5...i saw the park about only using kernals that have multirom support...but unfortunately that slipped my mind yesterday and i flashed a regular kernal. is there any kind of undo? my nexus 5 wont turn on anymore and when i plug it into the computer...it sees if but it says there are no drivers installed

tried every sort of button combination...any help would be great, thank you
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dsr13:
I had a similar issue. You should still be able to boot into recovery so you just need to update the driver on your computer and adb push a compatible kernel to your device. Get the latest driver here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html

On your computer, go to "Device Manager" and uninstall whatever driver is listed for the phone. Next, manually select the driver from the link and let it install. You should have adb access in recovery and fastboot access in bootloader at this point.

Edit: I'm assuming you have an Android SDK w/adb set up and you know how to use adb and fastboot commands. If not, go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2507905

Just to know, is it possible to flash Stock ROM (4.4 or L) as secondary ROM?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
roughly:

multirom runs before android init.

it mounts your stored rom to system and data instead of the device's regular partitions, and then kexecs the new kernel and ramdisk of your stored rom.

kexec doesn't flash the kernel, instead it runs it from RAM.

Swap ROMs

Hi guys,

I'm trying to swap my secondary ROM (Paranoid Android) with the internal ROM (stock), but when I click "Swap primary (Internal) ROM with seccondary", the list of ROMs is empty (I do have a secondary, for sure).

Do you know what might be the issue?

Thanks !!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vlefevre86:
Self answer : it seems that the secondary ROM to be copied needs to have its own boot.img, not sharing the internal one... Maybe it's worth being mentioned somewhere... (Unless it already is, and I missed it... In that case, my bad :) )

Switching to ART on Primary (Stock) Rom with MultiRom?

Hi all,

dumb question, is it possible to switch from Dalvik to ART runtimes on the Primary rom? I tried through the Developer options on android 4.4.4 Stock Rooted but it would complete as Multirom popped and prevent the Recovery from changing it over? Not sure if I have the Process right for it but you get the idea. Big reason I ask is I've heard that Some apps are now really pushing ART support and I wanted to try a couple of them out..

Thx in advance for any advice!!!

Hey, [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION]...

Back with multirom v10 or so, I was able to port your thunderg (p500) version over to thunderc (optimus v.)

I'm getting issues with booting after finally coercing this to build for thunderc.

The kexec-hardboot patch doesn't stop the kernel from working, it's fine in the recovery and booting a regular ROM.

I find issues in the install_zip/prebuilt-installer/multirom folder though. (well, issues for my legacy devices.)

the issue for me is that I'm still playing with an armv6... and the kexec binary, and every other binary in there except for busybox and ntfs-3g are armv7. One, lz4, is for cortex-a9, the others are

so, is there an easy way to include these binaries in the build instead of being prebuilts (so my arch and such build flags take care of the thumb2 'problem') or should I just prebuild them myself and replace them?

also, are there other prebuilts buried in there I should ferret out?

//edit: guessing that folder is to install other OS's, so it shouldn't be causing me any issues anyway. now, I built versions of everything but lz4, which shouldn't matter on my device, at least not yet.

//edit:

Still get reboot that happens so fast it won't log an error file. Reboots hard enough that there's no /proc/last_kmsg.

//edit more edit: still haven't gotten to check the kexec yet... have to use my os2sd fstabs to even get to recovery to flash to a place with enough storage for extra roms. these fstab formats are so picky.

//editedit: got it booting, had to manually build bootimg though. touchscreen not working yet, but it looks like it should be ok once I iron that out. Maybe. The twrp acts a little funny.

also needed a sleep(1); before init_devices in trampoline to handle my emmc /data as internal is too small to write any roms to.

Still, close enough to play around with. thanks!

more edit: had to add lzma in inject-boot.sh and change the dd commands to dump_image and flash_image... for some reason twrp dd isn't working on my thunderc. no matter multirom twrp or as close to regular old twrp as I've got.. and now I have to patch lzma, flash_image and dump_image into the multirom twrp as well. I suspect this all will look pretty messy... and I can't find a static arm lzma that does compression (busybox only decompresses) so I still have to manaully fix up the boot.img

I was trying to install latest Vanir nightly (4.4.4.091214) as a secondary internal ROM. (No particular reason; just checking it out.) After a successful flash and restart, I get the boot menu. I Cancel and change to boot Vanir. I get the Google screen, then the boot menu appears again. I select boot Vanir. I get the Google screen again and it just hangs; ROM never loads.

I tried reflashing Vanir, removing boot.img and inserting Franco.r63. After restart and selecting Vanir from boot menu, I get Google screen and it hangs.

I tried removing boot.img (thinking this would make it share internal, which is Franco.r63). Same thing; it hangs.
