If you guys search the thread, Tasssadar has addressed that several times, actually. There's even mention of it in the FAQ in the OP. [emoji14]

Basically [MENTION=2642882]Pretoriano80[/MENTION] is correct.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RusherDude:
This?

That doesn't sound like a generic situation but a specific problem with 2.6.3.0. If he said something like "my recovery said x.y.z.a, why it isn't updated to x.y.z.b? it would be a global concept, but it isn't as its expressed right now :p
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
I will be happy to help debug this issue. I have already tried Restorecon and other suggestions in this thread and others. Lollipop (Primary) + KitKat (Secondary) works. Lollipop (P) + Lollipop (S) or Lollipop (P) + Android M (S) gets stuck in the "spinning dots" splash screen.

Is there a way to collect logs to see where the system is stuck? Is this an SELinux issue - any incompatibility between the L+L and L+M?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Yes, that.

Well if you had searched and found his specific detailed explanation you would actually find the reason as to why it doesn't show the full correct version for every update. It is a global occurrence that will happen for any and all releases of TWRP & its MultiROM counterpart. You really think he's going to go to every OP he has just to change the version numbers in a FAQ post? Do you have any idea how long that would take to do every update for every thread? [emoji14]

Just search.

Been a user / follower since page 2. ;) I know my way around this thread. [emoji106]

If I'm not mistaken, the zip provided by Tasssadar works as secondary only.

[MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] is it possible that Android M Preview 2 breaks Multirom once again ?

I just made a flashable zip. It flashes without problem, but Multirom boot on it, reboots, then goes to recovery, exactly as M Preview 1 did with MultiRom 31.

Here's zip if you wanna test.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RusherDude:
Maybe it has a new bootloader or something and makes everything crash again like M preview 1?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] linuxteddy:
Hi,

using the backup mentioned one post above your question I flashed Despair kernel 1.8 and SuperSU 2.49 beta. Using as secondary.

LT
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pretoriano80:
For a secondary rom i don't think it will work, for internal rom it should work. Now the question is, do you mean an OTA for a custom rom or official/stock roms? Official roms will most likely need a stock recovery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RusherDude:
I think that it could work only if you change your primary rom for the dev preview 1 zip and when it is primary try to apply the ota, but not sure tho, OTAs are crytpo check *****es and depends on the zip config something may pop up as different.

[MENTION=452513]tassadar[/MENTION] never replied to this question even after m preview 1 was out..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] physwizz:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wishmasterf:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pretoriano80:
The easiest way to have DP2 as internal is to flash the zip from here - - > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3157299 < - - directly from TWRP. This way you will avoid all the hassle with the stock recovery and OTA flashing (which will fail anyway if the rom is not 100% stock).

Also, untill Tasssadar updates MR the second preview will not work as secondary, no matter what.

the TWRP backup is on stock kernel, thus I'm sure it works. Not rooted on stock, but works. Can't say I tried myself, I flashed custom kernel afterwards.

Multirom Newbe

Hello

As I understood, is mandatory to have a non caf ROM as primary, and a CAF one as secondary. How can I flash zips on the secondary rom? To flash zips on the primary one should I do something different?

Thanks a lot

Alvaro Bernal
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Pretoriano80:
Yes, if you flash a CAF rom as primary the secondary roms won't boot so an AOSP rom (which has a multirom compatible kernel) as primary is mandatory.

To flash a primary rom just use the main Install menu in recovery, no need to use the Multirom section.

Beware that if you want to flash a CAF rom as secondary you will need to modify the updater script (removing the first line of the script that contains the hammerheadcaf string) and also it's recommended to have the latest bootloader.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Konsumhaus:
What do you mean?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Can't you still do that in recovery?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Konsumhaus:
Yes. But I doubt it might be a problem with the rom kernel. Maybe it's not compatible with multirom
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ast00:
Just reflash the kernel and inject this time. It should be fine.

Added android M preview 2 as a secondary rom http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-android-m-preview-2-flashable-zip-t3157299

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] silvertrain78:
I'm new to MultiROM, and have read several pages from both the beginning & end of thread, and cannot find what I'm looking for.

What I've done so far:

Set up stock rooted 5.1.1 as primary ROM, flashed via factory image.

Successfully added M Preview 2 zip as secondary (boots perfectly), but now I want to flash a different kernel (EX 5.02) and root MP2. The problem is that I can't figure out how to flash files in recovery to the secondary ROM only.

Please advise
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Go to MultiROM settings from recovery. Select your secondary ROM. There will be some options like delete, wipe data, wipe cache, rename, flash zip, etc. The one you want is flash zip.

Okay, so I am new to this Multi-Rom Mod. I installed as directed through the play store application. which booted into recovery then proceed to boot, but when it boots it sits at a black screen after the GOOGLE logo with the unlocked lock. It appears to boot into nothing. As if i Wiped and didnt install another ROM before rebooting. In the OP somewhere it says flashing the files to apply multirom will not wipe your system. any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: restored to previous backup, tried flashing the Multi-Rom unistaller to get the phone to boot but still no avail.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dueltothedeath:
Are you stuck at fastboot/recovery?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
If it rebooted to the fastboot mode after the install then just boot to recovery from fastboot using the volume and power button and then flash a patched kernel.

Reboot and you should be good. At least that's what happened to me the last couple multirom updates.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MnRAZB:
thanks guys, flashing the patched kernel fixed my issues and was able to boot into android.

Has anyone been able to auto boot turned off? The settings don't seem to stick..

If I turn off and reboot, auto boot is re-enabled..

Same even if the counter is set to zero
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
I had issues with settings saving, but it was user error. When you change auto boot settings and hit save it jumps back to the first settings screen. You have to hit save there also, so you have to press save on the first screen and then again when it changes pages. Just pressing it on the first page won't do it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Neejay:
Yeah, I eventually learned to click save on both screens, and I've been fine since.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Thank you.. Didn't even notice there was save option in the second page too

Edit - tried it, but that doesn't do what I thought it would..

Now since I have unchecked auto boot, I presumed the device would boot automatically to the internal ROM.

But now it stops on the ROM options page awaiting user input to select the only rom that's available, that's internal.

Anyway to get it boot continuously without the delay or user input?

Like it would without multiboot?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] z31s1g:
With autoboot enabled, you could reduce the delay (the time the multirom boot menu is shown) to one second, but that's about it. Reducing the delay to zero (which you are trying to accomplish) is not possible.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:

Hi guys just wondering has anyone had issues with not being able to get MultiRom to work after flashing a new kernel on primary ROM?

A week ago I swapped my primary (which I installed this on) for a secondary and today after updating my primary (which was originally my secondary) kernel I can now no longer get multiboot to work. I've tried flashing the uninstaller (says multirom is no longer installed in recovery) but no matter what I do rebooting takes me to straight to fastboot. The only way I can boot is to install my backup or flashing new ROM. I've also tried flashing a new ROM and reinstalling the MultiROM app and even though it says that multirom isn't installed in recovery it detects it in the app.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Solved it myself it was just the Chaos Kernel 9 update that broke me. Franco works just fine!

The radio and bootloader are not ROM dependent. If you flash a radio on your phone, that's the radio version it has now. It isn't ROM specific. You can't flash separate radios on different ROMs.

Check multiroms options in recovery and you'll see the option to flash different modems for each rom, I had it ( two diffent radios )

I have a little problem. I installed Ubuntu Touch via the manager app.

But when I want to boot it, it just hangs at the Google screen. It tried a few times. I also tried utopia instead of devel but it's the same.

Everything else is working great,like FirefoxOS and SailfishOS and other Roms (Euphoria etc.).

Has anybody a tip for me how to make it work. That would be great.

When swapping my primary and secondary ROMs does MultiRom do a clean wipe of the primary ROM partition in between finishing making the copy and doing the actual switch?

Ey [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] !

Im actually working on a project, and im testing it using Multirom, because the contents of the system is more than 1Go (you can guess what is that ;) )

Because of classic install scripts problems, with permissions, i tried the block-based flashable zip, like in Lollipop custom roms, and so, my system.new.dat file,, 1.4 Go size, fails everytime with this error :

blkdiscard failed: Invalid argument

So, i imagine, these way to flash rom, reads the REAL system partition space before writing the data, and so, it fails if the img size is more than your system partition inside the phone, even if you flash using Multirom TWRP, to a "fake system partition" with same size limit as userdata remaining space.

So maybe, its possible to expand the fake system partition size to 3Go to allow everything to be flashed, or use the userdata remaning space as value for "fake system partition space"

I hope to be understood, and sorry for the bad english lol

Thanks in advance for any help flashing my damn zip :")
