i intsalled multirom from playstore ...using du as my primary rom abd tried flashing secondary rom ...but just cant boot into it ..attaaching a photo which shows the log as the mutlirom.txt was missing
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] minhajlk:
Unfortunately DU stopped supporting MultiROM. Flash a ROM that supports MultiROM in your primary and flash DU as secondary. Also you can try DU in primary with a custom kernal ElementalX works fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tanuj97:
How can i flash a custom kernel on my primary rom ?

Or If I want to change my primary rom how can I do that ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] minhajlk:
To Flash a custom kernal: In MultiROM Install the kernel zip file, ElementalX or any other kernel of your choice and reboot.

To Change your primary ROM: Wipe system, data, cache and dalvic and flash a custom ROM of your choice.

Does the cm-13 kernel work with CAF version? And does the custom TWRP work with it?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vs4vijay:
I am using Chroma M Rom (Android 6.0.1) with Multirom 33c version with recovery up to date and kernel is ElementX, I flashed PA Rom as Secondary but I couldn't boot into my second rom. When I try to boot it will just open TWRP recovery. I tried with Carbon Rom 4.4.4 as secondry, same problem. How can I overcome this problem?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] t2bacdp:
Use multirom app in chroma to change your kernel with a compatible one.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vs4vijay:
I think ElementX is compatible with Chroma M, My primary rom works just fine, it also says kernel is kexec patched which mean it should allow booting from multirom. I also tried flashing ElementX kernel on my secondary rom with no success...:(

Any help would be appreciated...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] t2bacdp:
ElementX is compatible with Multirom? Try a kernel compatible with Multirom (go ti the app on Chroma)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndresOrue:
Yes I am using it but with another rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pierrebe:
I confirm it. ElementalX is compatible with Multirom. I'm using it with PureNexus.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] t2bacdp:
Did you install this kernel in primary ROM?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tiaz92:
Read first page is too difficult?

How many ROMs can I have?/Where are the ROMs stored?

You can have as many ROMs as you can fit in your /sdcard. All the ROMs are stored in /sdcard/multirom/roms or on an USB drive. This folder is unaccessible in Android, to prevent mediascanner from scanning it. You can either in recovery, or obtain root and go to /data/media/0/multirom/roms.​

First testing builds of Ubuntu Touch for hammerhead were released, read https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg06116.html.

They are compatible with MultiROM and can be flashed via TWRP when packed to ZIP Files

Update to MultiROM v21a (http://d-h.st/IIO) or newer and recovery 2014-01-26 or newer

Go to recovery, Add ROM -> select Ubuntu Touch -> Next

Two files - one is device specific, second is the Ubuntu Touch system:

Device-specific file: ubuntu-touch-4.4.2-system-armel+hammerhead.zip (mirror)

System file (this one is from ogra with MIR fixes): ubuntu-touch-4.4.2-mir.rootfs-armhf.zip

Continue installation and profit. Needs about 2GiB of free space, by the way.

It can't be installed via the MultiROM Manager app because it is not official build, therefore it is not using system-image OTA system on which the app relies.

Question, can i use multirom on Nexus 5X?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BreckZeBoulay:
No, not the version for Nexus 5 2013.

And if I'm right, Multirom does exist for N5X. (that's why I'm still on N5 2013)

Some Files and Folders Not visible in Lollipop and Marshmallow ROMs

I have a problem with Multirom on the Nexus 5 2013 with Lollipop and above. When I am on Kitkat, I can go to any file explorer and see all of my files that are on the /sd card. With Lollipop and above, some files and folders in the /sd card directory can't be accessed in file explorers. The files can't be opened and there are empty folders which have files, but it doesn't show. Every file explorer I use does that, even rooted file explorer. I am rooted and using Lollipop and Marshmallow as secondary ROM's if that matters. Has anybody else had this issue? How do I fix this?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MaSar31:
2nd ROM isn't booting anymore

Hi,

I have some trouble with the second ROM. When I'm trying to start it, it won't boot.

My internal ROM is dirty unicorns 6.0.1

2nd ROM: Stock, unrooted, 5.0.1 (if I remember right)

Attached is the log file, which was created when I tried to boot.

Any chance I can get it run again?

Greetings, Marco
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BreckZeBoulay:
Boot in recovery, go into your secondary rom, and make a restorecon. Reboot and tell me.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MaSar31:
Unfortunately, it didn't change anything.

Still I get the same error when I try to boot.

Might it help to reinstall / update the ROM.zip?

Just like for the internal ROM, I wouldn't lose the installed apps, would I?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BreckZeBoulay:
You can dirty flash a stock 6.0.1 rom in secondary rom and installed apps won't be lost. Data partition is not touched.

But if you came from 5.0.1, may be it will cause issues....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MaSar31:
OK, didn't work. Any other idea? I'd like to save this ROM. I use it for online banking and otherwise I have to re-register the whole online banking stuff.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BreckZeBoulay:
Backup the data partition of the secondary, create a third rom with a brand new install, then reboot on this third rom.

Once done, back to recovery in the third rom and restore the data partition on the secondary rom in the third one.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MaSar31:
OK, thanks for your help. I assumed the app will realize, that the system installation has changed. But I'll give it a try in the evening.

Once again, thanks and I'll keep you updated as soon I have news
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] minhajlk:
Dirty Unicorn does not support MultiRom, flash a custom kernel Elemental X or kernel of your choice on your primary partition. This will fix the booting to secondary ROMs.

I was never able to boot ubuntu no matter what I did. SailfishOS works fine as a secondary ROM and so are other AOSP ROMs. Hope somebody comes up with a solution soon.

Try installing any rom as your secondary. Once done, swap roms. Install ubuntu as primary. See if that works.

Of course back up your current primary first.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RusherDude:
[MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] , multirom lost some of its purpose since Marshmallow come out (because of the new vendor partition), so any primary/secondary room needs to have the Vendor partition for them, which makes swapping between different rooms impossible without flashing vendor partitions...

Would it be hard to make MultiRom replicate a Vendor partition too for any secondary rom, and link them so the secondary rom use its own vendor instead of the main one? (including swapping them when swapping roms). This would make MultiRom able again to test different versions of android.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BIade:
Also support for rooting secondaries with systemless on newer roms would be awesome. <3

And maybe an updated TWRP 3.0.2.0 :D

Thank you very much

You can Install ubuntu as secondary rom using multirom v33 provided you change the date to something else...I had set it to 28th jan 2016 and used v8 of vivid proposesd....I have aosp 7.0 nougat as my primary rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Marisa:
I can't get it to boot using this method. It installs much better but sits a the Google screen rather than rebooting. It's definitely different, but can't get into Ubuntu Touch either way.

I didn't follow it exactly though. My ROM is 6.0.1 based and my Vivid-Proposed only had 305-309 so I couldn't use version 8, though I tried 308 and devel version 8 with similar results
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] reubenvarghese1:
Unable to boot ubuntu touch using multirom

I first installed the android n rom(bokrom) and then installed its gaaps etc.Then I made sure that I had more than 2.7 Gb of memory( IMPORTANT!! ) and then try to install the vivid proposed version and then it should boot up!

Hope this helps :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Marisa:
Well, I got Bokrom, its gapps, and installed them. It took me a minute to figure out the built-in Root manager, and it decided I didn't really need TWRP and just gave me the default Android recovery for some reason. Some shenanigans later and I got TWRP/Multirom back in its rightful place.

Despite the interesting path there, Ubuntu Touch is fully installed and seems to be largely working!

An indeed strange path but who cares as long as it works :p

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BIade:
Hey all :)

Is there a way, to modify multiROM to ask for a password when selecting to boot a certain rom?

I know that it would not give us any kind of security, but it would be a really nice to have feature :)

Tried to install nitrogen OS and the 9/12 build of Bokrom.

It didn't work though. No error or anything it just sits on "PATCHING SYSTEM IMAGE UNCONDITIONALLY" for almost 30 minutes. Tried it on primary as well as secondary. I don't know why but maybe the NRD90S build of Nougat needs TWRP 3.0.2-0 OR higher. Well correct me if I'm wrong or did I do something wrong. Please tell me. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vbz89:
I've installed the 9/12 build of bokrom as secondary successfully, no issues, it's working fine for me.

I'm running the standard multirom 3.0.0-0 recovery that is installed from the app.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bopolsz:
Good for you mate. I flashed stock image to see if the problem persists and it does. Can anyone share the hammerhead uninstaller zip file here? Basketbuild is down for maintenance.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flatpedals:
I have a little situation. Nexus 5, 32 GB.

I was running MOB31E as primary and bokrom Nougat as secondary.

I kept playing around on Nougat and had to flash the zip again about 5 times, like an update, to get out of bootlops.

I didn't notice until about now, but my internal memory kept resizing with every zip flash (I think).

When I first booted into Nougat as secondary with MOB31E as primary, I had 5.2 GB free and about 6 GB of stuff on Internal.

Now I have 1.34 GB free, with no secondary ROM, just MO31E as primary and nothing on my Internal, apart from a 4.4 GB TWRP backup.

Done so far:

Unistalled Multirom via unistaller.zip.

Wiped everything, restored backup.

Flashed clean factory with google' flash all.bat (or something like this :) ).

Installed, reinstalled Multirom a couple of times.

Looked into data/media/multirom but there' s nothing huge there.

What happened? I want my Internal back! :)

Actual sizes in GB may not be accurate, I may be a little off, that's just what I remember.

Ok try this out you may be able to recovery your storage back;

go to /data/media/0, typically you should have only only 0 folder, if you have more than one 0 folder, leave the first 0 folder and delete all the other 0 folders. Reboot and voila you have your storage back.

I still have 1.56 GB free of 26.7.

I have 4.42 GB of actual stuff on Internal and 4.9 GB of apps + 1.09 GB system.

move your backup to pc and you have 5-6 GB free place on internal storage
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flatpedals:
I used to have that with a secondary rom, the backup in place and another 3 GB on Internal... So something is messed up. As I've said, after reflashing bokrom zip in multirom a few times my storage started to go down.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bhuvan9111:
I dont know what was causing that but i know a easy way to get back the memory. Just copy all your important files ( songs,pics,zips,apks etc ) to your pc or hard disc and then lock your boot loader,

And unlock your bootloader. ;)

You will have all 28gb data free.

I know this sounds stupid but this works.

Yes, I did! I'm not sure why it makes a difference but after installing a 7.0 ROM it worked fine. Vivid-Proposed installed and still runs to this day.

I don't think it's ready for daily use, but it's definitely better than you'd expect for how young it ultimately is. Sailfish feels a little more cooked but less polished in the UI department, but it doesn't matter as much since Sailfish seems to have half dropped off the scene so...

I tried to install ubuntu touch but none of the versions showed were working, and I cannot boot them: It keeps booting from the google logo screen. I tried even with firefox os, but had the same problem, I only could install another Android based rom such as CM 13. Then I tried to install ubuntu touch and firefox os on an external sd drive with an OTG cable, but I had the same problem. And moreover the Multirom Twrp cannot mount extrnal drives formatted in ntfs, I do not know why. Can anyone solve my problem? it is not mandatory for me to have these OS, I just want to try them.
