Yes, I read your post in BSHarmony. My friend has same issue too, our phones are very identical as far as Kernels and primary Rom except apps. I have Cataclysm as primary.

I also have tried using different Kernel without any success. Franco, FrancoLinaro & Bricked.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sohail77:
Had the same issue did a factory reset again for the secondary rom and everything was fine ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] HTCore:
Thanks for looking at issue. I don't think reboot worked for me but I cannot remember if I tried it. However, sohail77 solution worked perfectly.

Although I like a permanent solution, but If it's going to waste for your time, then never mind. It won't harm us just do a factory reset before loading it :)

Thanks a lot, it did work!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Neejay:
Great update (v20)! Thanks for the hard work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] absoluterebirth:
do the primary and secondary roms share anything? such as data?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
They only share the sdcard. Data partition is not shared, you'll have to backup and restore your apps.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] abdel12345:
Do if you restore apps do they take up twice the space or is it like using a multi user account where they are separate but share files so only one download is needed?

Please press the thanks button if I help you.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] absoluterebirth:
also, I have currently my primary ROM installed. I want to install Unitato v1.1 and want to turn the runtime into ART, but when I tried doing so, my phone booted up into the MultiROM menu and when I tried booting back up into Unitato, it just stayed on the boot animation, guessing it was in a bootloop? is there a way to fix this?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hdoraemonk:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
Okay, some updates. MultiROM v28 seems to work just fine with the new 5.0 preview build, even with separate radio.img, which is a relief. You can't have it as a primary ROM because the kernel sources aren't out, but it works fine as secondary ROM for me.

I've updated the manager app for API level 21 so it looks better and I'm waiting for some guy to test unofficial Galaxy S...something support before I release it, but it should work just fine on 5.0 already, just without the material looks.

Flashable LPX13D ZIPs, no root, no anything, but they have been patched to enable SuperSU support - you still need to flash the UPDATE-SuperSU-*.zip file to get root, but you don't have to flash the kernel:

* dev-host: http://d-h.st/NLQ

PS: You may have noticed I'm not all that active anymore - I'm on university now plus I've got a part-time job, so I don't have that much time. Don't expect big new features in MultiROM anytime soon, but apart from app/data sharing, I don't think there even is anything else to add - just some user experience tweaks here and there and also keeping it all updated, which I think I can do. I plan to buy both Nexus 6 and 9 and support them myself, but I'm not sure how my money situation is gonna look like when they're available in Czech Republic - It might take me a while to get the money to buy them (but I should eventually be able to do so, because of the part-time job I got) and I might get one of them first and the other one after some time. Which device would you want to see supported first? Vote on http://strawpoll.me/2823524

Great work man! Nice to hear you've got a job now. Waiting patiently until the 5.0 sources are released and MultiROM is updated.

Also, voting for Nexus 9 ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vergilbt:
Hi [MENTION=452513]tassadar[/MENTION], it seems the sources are out for kernel...read it at xperimentalX-thread
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
A small update - v29, recovery and kernel for the LPX13D 5.0 preview. Also brings new autoboot type - you can set it up so that boot manager won't show up unless you hold a key during boot, otherwise it boots the default ROM. Right now, installing the 5.0 as primary ROM works for me.

As for the wifi issues - do you have newest bootloader and radio? The ones from LPX13D factory image?

This function doesn't work for me.

If I press vol-, I enter in bootloader, normal ^^

If I press vol+, nothing happened and I boot on the rom I choose by default. (CM11 M11 + ElementalX v1.11)

By the way I discovered MultiRom yesterday and it's an amazing work ! :good:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
You have to go into recovery and advanced, multirom, settings, autoboot settings. The option is there. Don't press it while you hold power or you will go to bootloader. Hold it once you see the Google logo and padlock. it works.

Note: if you're using a MR theme that hasn't been updated yet, you will need to remove the theme to see the options. You can do it from recovery by going to advanced - file manager. Go to /sdcard/twrp/theme/ and rename ui.zip to ui.zip.bak. reload the theme and then find the option.

I use it and it works fine! :)

There is any kernel with patch-hardboot Support for 5.0 Developer Preview?

Ps.where can i download latest flashable bootloader ?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
From the developer.android.com website.. Inside Google packaged distribution tarball...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Polv89:
Flashable zip...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
For a bootloader?

Using the bootloader implies access to adb/fastboot.... Grab the bootloader IMG from the Google tarball and fastboot it....

And iirc, bootloader hasn't been updated in quite some time...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
There is a bootloader update in the latest L preview, fyi
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Fair enough, I hadn't checked and used flash-all to install the dp anyways...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SGWUser:
Does the 5.0 Preview kernel with kexec-hardboot have the patches for root?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
I'm sure it does, this is the MultiRom thread ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SGWUser:
Awesome, thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
Despite what every other "Android news site" says, there is no need to patch kernel. The required patch is a one-line change in init.rc file, which is inside of ramdisk/initrd, which is inside boot.img. Most kernels these days come as whole boot.img as opposed to just _the kernel_ for various reasons, so it is easy to blur the difference between kernel and initrd.

My kernels, however, are not whole boot.imgs, so they don't have initrd. That means they can't(well, more like shouldn't) have the root patch in 'em.

The flashable LPX13D ZIPs I released however have the patch in their initrd, so if you use those + my prebuilt kernel (or leave the stock kernel in), root will work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Polv89:
So, do you know where can i find a flashable .zip o .img?

I have extracted it from developer preview factory image (bootloader-hammerhead-hhz12d.img), can i flash with flashify app, right?

thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
No because I would never use a zip to flash a bootloader. Fastboot is quick and painless and the way to go imo
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hatshipuh:
You already got your answer where to find the .img, why are you still asking?

And you can't flash bootloader through recovery, neither with Flashify.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] toxicpaulution:
You probably shouldn't be flashing things if you can't flash things through adb. Its definitely a standard in the nexus world. Let me guess you used a tool kit to unlock and root your phone as well?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
How *DO* you flash things through adb?

Fastboot I know, but adb?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Polv89:
I can flash things through fastboot, but it's more simple and quicker to do with Flashify (is possible to flash .img files without a computer)

I can't remember if i used toolkit or not to unlock and root my phone, but i'm not asking about it.

If you don't want to help users, don't help users.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Flashify is for recovery and boot, not bootloader, system, data, user data, etc, etc...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] obayda.bd:
Check this... If u think u can't do this by this way then install android 5.0 zip file through recovery..

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hatshipuh:
Selected the button press method in autoboot, but no matter how, I can't get to the ROM selector. Pressing too soon obviously gets you either to the bootloader or recovery, but when I press as soon as the Google logo appears, it always boots the ROM instead of going to the selector. And yes running v29 and latest MultiROM recovery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
That's installed through fastboot, not adb...

The question I asked/implied was "How do you install [IMG files/roms] through adb?" since there have been numerous people here saying to use adb to install....

Edit: I guess you could use adb shell and dd to write the IMG file to the partition... But I would highly recommend against it... Especially if you have a bad case of the typoes...

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

But we have helped you, you've been told numerous times to use fastboot as recovery and flashify won't work... Yet you persist in arguing against using fastboot...

JUST USE FASTBOOT ALREADY...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Polv89:
Oh, no, i talk with toxicpaulution about helping people, not you :)

So i will flash the bootloader via fastboot, thanks

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MakDroid:
OK I am asking this after reading all the posts related to the latest dev preview kernel. I have flashed the flashable zip of the latest dev preview(provided by vomer) and then flashed the patched kernel provided by you so that Lollipop stays as my primary ROM. But the problem is root access cannot be obtained and the reason for that has beenl clearly explained by you. So my final question is how do I get boot.img with patched kernel along with that "one-line" change in init.rc file? The only aim of doing this thing is to keep lollipop as primary rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
You can try flashing the full permissive kernel and then ElementalX 2.0 for example + the PIE fix which should give you full root and the MultiRom patch. Flash SuperSu last.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MakDroid:
Thanks for such a quick response. I would like to avoid third party kernels for now but your post gave me an idea. If I flash the full permissive kernel first, I will get my init.rc modified to be able to gain root permissions. Then I will flash the patched kernel provided in OP as it won't touch the modified init.rc file.

I'll try this and report it back.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Polv89:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] baysakhal:
Oh, mate you again =) In multirom I believe it does say that, see the screenshot

View attachment 2982964
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
Your main rom has the patch which is KitKat right, I believe that's what the MultiRom app is confirming. You will just have to flash a patched kernel to your secondary L rom before you can move that L rom to the primary slot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] baysakhal:
How do I do this or is elementalx 2.0 patched (compatible) with multirom v29?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
What I would do is take a nandroid of my primary rom, flash ElementalX to my secondary L rom and then copy secondary to primary.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I'm not sure about EX but Uber has the multirom patch as per this post. So if you want to swap roms flash this kernel. But read the thread first to make sure. I'm on hellscore and I'm curious about doing the same.

In multirom when I'm on L it says it has hexec kernel or is it only confirming that my primary rom has hexec kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
Only primary is relevant
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Tylog is correct, naturally. ;) But if you want to swap your primary to L then that kernel on it needs to have multirom support. Kernel devs are aware of this and will clearly state it in the OP if it has the kexec patch. Hellscore and ElementalX seem to be the go to these days since other kernels might mess with ramdisk and these don't. Others might be ok so do your homework.

Swapping the Roms in Multirom v29 Confrimed

1 Primary Rom - stock 4.4.4 - Kernel elementalX 1.12

2 Secondary Rom - L (LPX13D) - Kernel elementalX 2.0

3 Multirom v29

4 TWRP recovery that comes with above multirom

Method:

Just go to recovery and swap the roms, it will take sometime but just make sure you have enough space and of course just in case please backup everything before doing this

PS: The names of the Roms will remain the same as it was before swapping, so dont be afraid of that

I have a 16GB USB 3.0 drive and only one rom on there. I am getting a Storage space running out message and that's impossible. Redo the whole shebang?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nightranger73:
MR creates a loop file of a predetermined size to simulate data partition (ext4) on usb (fat). It needs to do this because FAT can't handle linux permissions and symlinks.

The data partition (mounted on fixed size file) on your USB is full even if you have empty space on drive.

Inviato dal mio Nexus 5 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
So to fix this should I start over and/or format as exfat? Maybe the rom is just too big? It's sykopmos L version.

edit: I think I got it to work by specifying a larger partition size before installing the rom with exfat. I made the system and data partition 6gb each. Now the question I have is can I move this to my internal and perhaps move one of my internal to the USB? Well you know I'm going to try it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AGiLiT:
Same here. I also notice it seems to knock out the bootloop animation.

What information could we provide to help confirm / debug this behavior?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
I'm not sure what you guys are doing wrong, but you're doing something wrong. I use the key select method and it has never NOT worked for me, ever. I'll try to explain best I can.

Power off your phone. Obviously make sure you have a primary and a secondary ROM. Go to recovery and make sure they key option is selected. OK. Now hit Reboot / System.

Basically as soon as you see the Google logo & padlock, get ready. I usually wait a tiny bit (not even a full second) after the vibration and hold Volume(-) for a second or so. Fades right into MultiBoot.

If you wait 3+ seconds (after splash screen but before boot animation) it will boot to primary. This must be done literally right after the splash, padlock & vibration happens.

If you guys really can't still get it, I can make a video for you later. I've had no issues with using it this way and prefer it to all other methods.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I was in the same boat as the two previous posters. But with your explanation I tried it again and it works. I think the trick is to do it right away, maybe even 2 seconds is too long. Nonetheless, thanks. It saves that double boot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AGiLiT:
She'sa still no work. :confused:

Trying it your way, with the volume down button, it boots to fastboot. With volume up button, it just goes to boot the ROM.

This is not a big deal; I can live with the boot screen. I have a short time on it, so it essentially just boots into the ROM anyways.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Tried to make a video for you guys. Too bad I'm an idiot and always hold the phone in portrait mode while recording, LOL.

Anyways, here it is.

MultiROM key press option: http://youtu.be/FvBFbgYMioc
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Hatshipuh:
Still no go as I said, no matter Vol up or down, pressing right when I feel the vibration, pressing right when the vibration fades, always boots into the ROM.

And as my previous poster said, no big deal, I've used the timed boot, I can still continue using it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Are you letting go of the power button?
