Hello everyone, I'm using the latest Multi ROM v32b with the latest recovery over here on stock LMY47I (rooted of course), no secondary ROM. I wanted to try the Xposed unofficial super alpha for 5.1. I flashed the zip but somehow the Xposed framework doesn't stick & on installing the Xposed framework app, it still says install from recovery. Tried twice with no success. I suspect that this could be the issue with the recovery itself as on that thread they tell us to use a recovery that can write the Xposed or something like that. Can anyone help?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Venomous Viper 119:
Edit: Xposed super alpha is working. But the message remains that states "You must install Xposed framework from recovery" remains always, which had gotten me confused.

Now, Thank you for Tasssadar efforts, I am also enjoying MultiROM on NEXUS6 XT1103

I found a small issue, maybe some user should awake,

1 if you "add ROM "and "set boot.img" without a reboot, TWRP result is Fail, then when you go to "List ROM" my case 2nd ROM LMY47D,

it will display the “remove boot.img” and backup Button for you wrongly；

when you go to reboot to 2nd ROM, it will fail on find boot.img in a white text screen;

My 1st trial to fix it is fail: use “remove boot.img” in MultiROM TWRP, it can go though to Android logo but after starting apps, it will restart to 4 Colors Flying dots...

My 2nd Trail to fix it works: "Flash Zip"in MultiROM TWRP "List ROM" to reinstall the zip files again, and wipe all data/cache...

I do not know the root cause, but just let you know how I make it install.

In fact I think it is more important to tracking another feature:"Set Radio.img", since I want to test the radio 95R from LMY47D and 98R LMY47E which is said that LMY47I keep 95R radio, but have improvement on SIM card and Operators handling. really expecting "Set Radio.img" feature in next TWRP upgrade.

Multirom for hammerheadcaf

[MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION]

I have built a hammerheafcaf rom with kexec hardboot patch. I still cant run it as primary with latest TWRP. I get a black screen after Google logo.

My source code is here:

I'm trying to replace the battery in my n5, but all 3 batteries are showing 0% and I can't get it to charge..

Could multirom be in the way of getting my new batteries to charge?

Probably not but still a thought..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Azlun:
If your battery internal ic become protected, output will lower than 2.7v, then some old platform sw may not active it, it just need to charge it with a 3.6v+ power supply for 1 second. But it is quite strange all your 3 batteries

become such protected status at the same time. Please check your batteries output voltage and pcb input resistance before installation to see any hardware shortcut happen...

And, it is nothing about multirom, please new another thread if you can not find a solution by search.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ast00:
You have to use KK as primary and LP as secondary, otherwise the LP will lose access to storage and the KK will bootloop.

I would say create a backup from your current ROM, flash MIUI as primary and then restore the backup as secondary.. I've done this soooo many times and it works fine.

Quick questions though-

how does a full wipe effect things?

if i am to install a secondary rom, should i be clean wiping? the primary rom gets unaffected?

and if it were the other way around - clean wiping the primary rom for an update or anything, would the secondary roms be unaffected?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] suneet mehta:
No you don't need to wipe the primary rom. You just have to go to advanced->multirom->addrom and select the rom. Again no wiping one doesn't affect the other. Just be sure to flash the kernel with the patch again in the primary rom after you update it.:)

Hit thanks if I helped you.;)

When I am installing a new secondary rom into multirom, what steps do I need to do.

I have been doing the following:

- Enter multi rom menu

- add rom

- select zip file (custom rom)

- after installing go back and select rom I have just installed , after selecting rom, I am flashing the gapps for that rom

Many Roms instructions say the following

- wipe factory reset

- wipe dalvic and cache

So when would I do this "wipe" after installing only the secondary rom, with out the gapps or would I install the gapps as well and then do all the "wipes" or do I not have to do anything when using multi rom just install rom and gapps and reboot?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
After you have installed your secondary ROM, goto multiboot menu

there is an option to 'manage ROms'

all roms are listed there..

click on any of them

you'll get option to wipe etc
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mojolive:
Hi thank you , but still did not answer what I was trying to ask.:)

i will try to explain better. I know about how to wipe.. I just am a bit confused about when to wipe.

Normally on TWRP before installing I would do a data/factory reset, and wipe dalvik and cache before installing.

but it seems with Multi Rom, I am a little confused.. as the rom has not been installed and if I would do as I normally do with TWRP with out multi rom.. I would erase the rom that I am switching from . I do not want to do that.

I want only to install a secondary rom, NOT touching the internal rom..

So my question was, when if at all when installing a secondary rom in Multi Rom, do I need to wipe cache , dalvik, factory /data reset??

Do I only need to wipe dalvik and cache, after I have installed the secondary rom, and also installed the GAPPS.. ?

or do I install the seconday rom, then after it is installed.. select it and wipe everything and then install the Gapps?

Sorry for my confusion.. be up late the last days:)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sohail77:
Install secondary rom and then gapps then wipe

Hi,

First, thanks for that multirom bootloader / hack, it works really great, i'm using it for several months now and i'm really happy with it.

I have a nexus5 with an official kitkat 4.4 as my primary / main rom.

Is it possible to add a cyanogen lolipop version as a secondary rom ?

Or if i need to upgrade my primary rom, is there a solution to do this without removing multirom and my other installed roms ?

How to separate sdcard ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Anderson2:
I've a rooted nexus 5 running stock 4.4.4 with xposed, xgravity, and xprivacy. I've hesitated moving to lollipop because I'm happy with kitkat but now I would like to try it using multiboot. So I have a few questions:

1. How much additional free space do I need for multirom + lollipop? Nexus 5 does not have an sd. Is 7gb of free space enough?

2. If not, can multirom install lollipop on a flash drive connected using stickmount.

3. Will lollipop booted via multirom "see" the apps currently installed in kitkat (like an update would) or will I need to reinstall them into lollipop? Can tibu app backups made in kitkat restore apps correctly to lollipop?

4. Exact steps to proceed.

Thank you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
Starting off there are some issues with the storage location of lp vs kk... That being said it will work having one of each. I ran lollipop as my primary and KitKat as a secondary for awhile however files I saved in kk were not visible in lp due to the sdcard/0/0 issues.

-Your secondary ROM will not share any apps with your primary just the files on your SD.

-On average a secondary ROM will take up about 1gb depending on how many apps you download.

-You can boot a secondary ROM to a USB otg if you like.

-If you are running a kernel with the kexec patch you are set to proceed if not you can flash one of your choice.

- Download the multi ROM manager app from the play store and follow the prompts.

I also fail to flash 4.4.4 as secondary previously and got the same error as yours.

then backup the primary ROM, and install the backup as secondary.

At this time I have two stock 4.4.4 KTU84P, and finally I update the primary to 5.1.

Consequently, I have 5.1 as primary and 4.4.4 as secondary.
