As far as I understood :

Besides primary partition, all other "partitions" are only image disks, each with its own data/system/boot etc etc

They all share the same /sdcard path

You can have the stock rom like any other rom

It only shows Android ROMs which do not share kernel.

I won't support another device which I don't have, it takes too much time to test everything on all devices I support as it is. Having to depend on someone to test it for me is even worse and takes longer, as it just did with v19 on mako.

I don't see anything in that log, except that something gets formatted for some reason Oo

Thanks for the reply Tass. I did some trial and error and just found this work around.

Just curious, since you have mentioned to use the "do not share kernel" ONLY when the other fails, are there any potential performance or other dependencies while not sharing kernels.

Thanks again.

so i probably missed something but maybe someone knows whats going on.

i just installed multirom and setup a rom (droidkang) on my second system. boot works fine running smooth and all but now when i try to install or update an app i get an error 403 and it just wont install.

my first guess is that somehow data is corrupted? any ideas?

Hi!

I downloaded the app and install multirom and twrp without problems or errors but when I boot into recovery I didn't see new menu in advanced... I flahsed the recovery by fastboot but the new menu wasn't in advanced. When I boot into system there were some FCs and error that I have solve flashing "stock" TWRP.

What happens?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mrnovanova:
Hi guys, I've been having trouble with my multirom lately. Every Rom I've tried to install failed since deleting the last one. And when I open the multirom app it just idles forever, all I see is status and that progress circle thingy spinning. I've tried uninstalling an reinstalling the app to no avail. How do I fix this? :(

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Yeah it sounded like a root problem.

Honestly I never even use the MultiRom app. It has root and it tells me I don't have a MultiRom recovery or kernel installed, yet when I reboot I have 4 different options to boot into. Works fine despite what the app says. Also if I hit install through the app, it'll reboot to recovery and TWRP will ask me for my password which I never set. I have to manually reboot to the OS and back to recovery myself. Then the install script runs. Kinda a hassle when it was already working :p

This is not recommended, at all, as it could break many things. I've seen multiboot options on many phones and no matter which method is used, none of them share data and apps.

You got to pay real money to modaco as far as i know and grarak... well let's just say he's not very move
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
It's not "impossible", MultiROM just doesn't do it as of now. And to be honest, I'm not very keen on adding it - it's true that some testing I did some time ago went fairly well, but it's still fairly tricky issue because all files have to have correct permissions, uids and selinux contexts. Add different ROMs and Android versions to that, and it gets even more messy. A proper UI to manage this sort of thing in recovery would be also required.

It's somewhat easier for other multiboot modifications to share data - they usually only share data between two ROMs, in case of MoDaCo.SWITCH* the dual-boot mod even knows exactly which ROMs are they gonna be. MultiROM, on the other hand, can boot anything and any amount of it.

I'm not saying I won't add it, of course, it would be a nice feature. But, especially now, I don't feel like doing it.

* I can't find sources of MoDaCo.SWITCH and the installation ZIP contains several binary executables. Is that thing even opensource?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pseudoheld:
im having issues at the moment. i have a second rom installed but when i boot it doesn't show the select rom dialog...

i even set the second rom as autoboot main rom but it still booted into my stock rom...

any ideas whats up or what i can do to fix it?

nevermind reinstalled multirom via the app and its working again!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PopperJuan:
How do you install GAPPS on the roms?

Sometimes you need to use the "inject curr. bootsector" option (in twrp-advanced-multiron) after flashing a kernel.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dani26:
I have Paranoid Beta 5 as primray ROM with franco kernel. If i update Paranoid, zip will install paranoid stock kernel, which is not compatible with MultiROM. Then, if I want to update i have to:

-Install ZIP, like always

-Install GAPPS

-Install franco kernel

-Wipe dalvik

-Inject, curr boot sector in MultiROM-Advanced

Right?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
Sounds right. But you can skip the last step if you check the option to "Inject MultiROM after installation" for the kernel zip before you "swipe to install".

I rooted my Nexus 5 using CF-Auto Root. I installed the Multi Rom Manager app from the Play Store but didn't install anything through it yet. It says that, other than installing MultiRom and the Recovery, the kernel doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch. So what do I have to install the 4.4.2 Kernel through the MultiRom Manager App? Will I lose my data as a result?

I've set-up system-image server on my server, which means you can now install Ubuntu Touch via the Manager app (v1.94 or higher) and OTA updates work on it. The only problem is, it's pretty crappy VPS (I've even had to buy better version of that VPS plan to build Ubuntu Touch on it). While it has unlimited traffic, it is connected to the interned via just 100mbit line - I have no idea how many users is it gonna handle while still being reasonable fast, so be a bit tolerant about that.

TWRP_multirom_hammerhead_20140227.img

MultiROMMgr-v1.94.apk (it will show up in Play Store in a few hours)

Now, a bit more about the server:

Address: http://system-image.tasemnice.eu

cdimage-like server with system, boot and recovery images for hammerhead: http://cdimage.tasemnice.eu (not actually needed for anything, but why the hell not)

It is setup to track trusty and trusty-proposed channels on official Ubuntu servers - the version numbers match. Every time a new version is available on official server, there'll be new one on mine within two hours as well (trusty-proposed is usually nightly and images from it are added to trusty once they pass QA -> trusty is more stable).

The android-related device-specific parts are built on my server every friday. New version build is not triggered for them, they'll be in next version generated after it's built.

You can use it even without MultiROM:

ubuntu-device-flash --channel devel --bootstrap=true --server="http://system-image.tasemnice.eu"

Custom changes:

MIR is turned on by default

Sound fix (v2) from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/android/+bug/1276901

Backported system-image client rev. 242, to support servers without https protocol.

To be honest, I didn't expect this thing getting so long to set-up properly, and the fact that I had to buy a better VPS plan for it isn't all that great either. Oh well, I hope it'll at least run for a while.

* /me awaits his Tasemnice server getting just overwhelmed right now *

Managed to do something a bit better ;)

Yeah, it shows in the MultiROM app that franco is patched. That isn't the problem.

As soon as I install franco's kernel, the selection screen disappears and I can't select which ROM to boot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
Make sure you have the option checked to inject current boot sector when you flash a kernel. You may have to reinstall MultiRom now it sounds like. If that doesn’t do it for you then I'm not sure why it's happening when you flash Franco and not the stock patched kernel.
