Anyone else having issues with SD card reading the folders but there Is no files in them when running L as a secondary ROM?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Papa Emeritus:
No it's the right thread guy. So far all functions of the kernel work. Not why people are so freaked out about trying it. Give it a chance!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
No worries... In fact I would recommend you to flash another KK ROM as secondary ROM in and make sure it works. Then once you're confident, flash L as a secondary ROM.

You may be at the right thread, but note that this is the nexus 5 forums. I think you're talking about the nexus 7.

On the nexus 5, there is no elementalx 2.13, and if we do try to flash the latest KK elementalx kernel, we loose radio connectivity.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aligatro2010:
So, I've finally decided to try this out and very impressed so far. Thank you for your work, Tasssadar

I am a little worried about the future updates of the firmware. I am running Cyanogenmod 11 on my nexus as primary OS and it did NOT have the kexec patched kernel. Now the question is about how I should proceed whenever I will want to upgrade to newer version of CM. Does it matter whether the target kernel supports kexec or not?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Goggle81:
The main Kernel needs kexec patch.

Just flash a supported Kernel after an update and you are fine ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jpchopper:
I'm running L as secondary.

As I understand it the kexec kernel patch simply allows the secondary ROM to boot; as long as you don't share kernels when installing the secondary ROM uses its own kernel.

I think the only major difficulty is the storage being shared across ROMs. L apparently does it differently and creates problems.

I'm running stock as primary with PA, Omni, MiUI and L as secondaries to toy with.

All but L work fine (it gives the storage issue).

Hth.

It is posible to disable multiboot to test a kernel without the patch without losing the 2nd rom???
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vyruz1986:
anyone tried restoring a backup of an 'L' secondary rom?

I had L running perfectly in secondary slot (4.4.4 stock in primary), and made a backup of this.

Then I borked the L rom, no worries right since I had backup...

However when I try to restore the backup (i.e.: add rom slot with backup as source, correct?), and try to boot this, it shows the black screen with 'Google' on it for about 3 minutes, when reboots into recovery...

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] brockkk:
Finally tried out multirom. Very convenient having paranoid and L easily available.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flash5000:
Sure, just flash the new kernel to the primary (internal) ROM. The secondary ROM will remain untouched, you just cannot boot into it if the new primary kernel doen't have the kexec patch. As soon as you reflash one with this patch included, you can boot to the secondary ROM again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mekayzer:
For those who miss the clear all notification on L, Koushik Dutta made an app that give the possibility to have it. See this https://plus.google.com/110558071969009568835/posts/CWzyZahBRUA

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TheLastSidekick:
Assuming you're on the latest MultiROM just create a new ROM and select the flashable .zip, reboot and proceed to wait for 15-20 minutes to be sure. If you want root, you can flash SuperSU 2.01 or later before booting into the long wait.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gregs1213:
The process seems easy but I'm having trouble and having trouble finding my answer. I was on L and then flashed back to stock ROM w/ root. I installed multirom and flashed L preview as secondary rom (not sharing kernal). However when I try and boot into it I get the error about kernel doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch. I even tried to flash a L preview kernel to the ROM (code blue) and it didn't work. I tried with two L zip files and no luck.

EDIT: I reflashed MultiRom and did exactly what I did the first time and it's working fine now.

Hi guys,

I am unable to install L Dev Preview as secondary ROM. I have downloaded zip file from bigxie thread from Android Development section.

Internal ROM : Stock 4.4.4 Rooted

Kernel : Stock L downloaded from MultiROM manager

I have attached the log in the attachments. Please help me to troubleshoot it. Thanks in advance :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] 12alex21:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmazzamj:
Please someone HELP ME!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Did you try just flashing carbon again, and a compatible kernel....like elemental x?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmazzamj:
Thank you.

I did indeeed. Stock Carbon kernel is compatible but now that you mention the kernel, it behaves just like any secondary ROM when the "share" option does not work...If I flash a compatible kernel in fastboot, ("fastboot flash boot boot.img" will it just flash as per normal ROM?

Thank you again

Update: I tried flashing franco r55 as per usual and it did not boot.

I also tried injecting franco r55 in recovery and it did not boot either.

I'll try flashing a different primary...let's see what happens...

Ups, I just realised that according to MultiROM manager r55 IS NOT compatible...I remember reading somewhere it was...I'll try flashing Elemental X as suggested.

Update 2: flashing Elemental X in recovery did not fix it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ikslawlok:
Wipe all. And make a fresh install. That's all.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmazzamj:
That was my last resort, flashing Slimkat after a factory reset solved my issue, at least my secondary ROMs are intact.

I was wondering: Is there a way to have the same exact apps installed in every ROM without actually installing them? I know about Titanium Backup but I don't like using it that much. I remember running a double boot on an HTC One (Sense and stock GPe) with the same apps and data in both ROMs. I would be happy having just two ROMs, a primary and a secondary, we don't need 10 ROMs...

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SynnyG:
It's true that this is a good idea, very useful ! But for the moment, sharing the data is impossible due to the fact that each rom are invisable to each others
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GialanG:
In fact you can see data on other roms if you read the OP more carefully. But Tasssadar explained sharing data will cause more troubles than benefits it may gain, so he doesn't plan to do that.

By the way, I think sharing messages and call logs should be great, if possible.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jmazzamj:
I think that would be the same...

I was sure he thought about that option but I also thought it wasn't easy to implement neatly...

I can't flash Google apps in my primary, I tried SlimKat Google apps and the flash failed.

I installed AICP as my primary and AICP mini gapps won't flash either...

Any ideas?

EDIT: I tried flashing AICP mini gapps again and it went through as usual.

Hey, love this by the way. How do I flash something for my Primary ROM? Because when im in TWRP and click install, it goes to /sdcard/download instead of where the Primary ROM is. Cheers! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
Just the way you would with normal TWRP. Everything you install from "install" will be flashed to the primary rom. In your case the recovery is just asking you to choose the zip you want to flash.

To flash stuff to the secondary, you need to go to multirom > list roms > *select rom* > flash zip.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Andypandiiee:
Exactly what I was looking for! Cheers buddy! :D :D :D :D

Installed manually multirom and recovery, then installed DU as main ROM and slimkat as second sharing elementalx kernel. Root was not working on slim. I tried to flash zip but got error.

So I wiped all, even firmware :P, then I did the same but without sharing kernel and I got the same problem...

So I deleted slimkat and tried with DU as second ROM as well (I need a ROM with gapps to play and one with no gapps and security apps for main use) and it worked perfectly sharing kernel !

Thanks a lot for this very useful hack :)

i wanted to install Android L but always got an error. i full wiped (except internal storage of course). i then installed Android L as a secondary rom and then i changed it with the primary rom.

So after it booted for ages it was up and running without a problem. i then wanted to look at my pictures and they're gone! i connected my phone with my pc and i saw that there now is a "0" folder with all my old sd-card content on it, but my pictures are not in the DCIM/Camera folder!! :(

Does anyone know if I flash normal TWRP, will it remove Multi boot ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
It won't. But as soon as you flash anything to the primary rom that writes to the boot partition, the multirom boot screen will be gone. Secondary roms will persist, but you won't be able to use them.

EDIT

If you're looking to uninstall MR, read the second post of this thread.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] agurudev:
Thanks but I could not find the uninstall process. Anyway, I deleted the 2nd ROM using the Multi ROM manager and then reinstalled a new primary ROM. While TWRP still has the Multiboot option it does not show the option at boot like you mentioned.

I just hope that there is no space wastage due to this.

You're good if you've deleted the unwanted secondaries. Now all that's left is to flash stock twrp and your uninstallation is complete.
