Awesome! thanks for the link!

Apart from the zip image uploaded in the linked post, there's also the bootloader and radio images from the rom. Are they needed for running the zip file in multirom? there wasn't any need to do this on preview M1 or M2, I guess it's only if you wanna flash that as primary rom right?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
Correct. I updated radio because why not... But bootloader only if this will be your primary and I would say only if it won't flash on the latest L boot loader.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] physwizz:
Works great! I just flashed it over my secondary m2 and then flashed SuperSU and destiny kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fe98:
Bit of a newbie question here... I'm just interested in testing out M3 at the moment without my apps etc.

I installed M3 on my flash drive for a quick test before I install it on my N5. I got the option to share kernel when doing that.

However when trying to install it on my phone (as a secondary rom) there's no option to do so.

I noticed in the changelog for 11.9.2014: "Remove "share kernel with internal?" from "Add ROM" page, there is usually no reason to use it anymore and it might be confusing to figure out what it actually does. "

How do I go about installing it as a secondary rom without sharing the kernel. Is this even necessary? I would like to root M3 at some point. Would installing Hells core affect my primary rom?

Thanks.

Update: Took the plunge, installed M3 (and then flashed HCb5M and SuperSu 2.49 as mentioned above). I see that each rom has its own kernel (which was what I was looking for).

Hello everyone

I'm currently running stock rooted 4.4.2. Can I flash m3 as a secondary rom? or do I have to be on lollipop to be able to use m3 as a secondary rom? t hank you
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tylog:
You can. It's uninteresting what you use as Primary.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Natakranta:
You may need to update bootloader and radio to M3. I don't know if primary 4.4.2 stock rooted will boot on M bootloader. I know SlimKat 9 4.4.4 boots on LP bootloader (which M1 and M were using). I think I read somewhere M3 brought new bootloader.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bostonirishguy13:
I have KK as primary/internal, too, but I rarely use it. I also have Clean Core and Euphoria as secondary. I have the lollipop bootloader and radio.

To get the M3 to install was a hassle. Through trial and error, this was my process:

Install M3 as secondary. Don't reboot. Install custom kernel for root, then install SuperSU 2.49

Reboot and select the M3. Skip through the setup dialogs for now to just get to home screen.

Reboot to recovery and backup the M3.

At this point my Internal (KK) rom would not boot. I'd get the Google splash screen and it would then boot to recovery.

Make sure you have a backup of your internal (KK). Use that to restore your internal. After booting, make sure MultiROM app says you're set up correctly, too. Then reboot to recovery and delete the M3 from secondaries. Reboot again to make sure everything's looking OK. Now you can install the backup as a secondary rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
Sounds like it's time to let go of kk!

How do you flash the zip in the second link as secondary using multirom?

Because i tried it earlier and its affecting my 1 st rom (cm12.1).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
What do you mean affecting your first rom?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adf2009:
the mpa44i rom is installed as 1st rom instead of 2nd rom. do i need to update radio and booloader?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
OK so you installed it as primary instead of secondary?

If you wanted to add it as a secondary in twrp select advanced/multirom/add rom.

If it flashed and booted then I wouldn't worry about the bootloader... The radio is never required it is a good idea to try a couple of them to see which gives you the best signal strength though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adf2009:
I actually intended to install as 2nd rom. However, it was installed in 1st rom and caused bootloop in my cm12.1 rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
You are correct! For some reason it overwrites your internal rom when flashing as a secondary. For m3 use the modified one (I removed the link for the bad one) or link I posted in post#3005 which is mp44g.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adf2009:
Thanks for confirming.

Im still in mp44g as 2nd rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hodragon:
I thought I was the only one with this problem. The good thing is that it doesn't wipe the multirom partitions and you

can go back to your primary ROM by dirtyflashing it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
Right I just restored a backup. I update my backups and delete the old ones about once a week.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] physwizz:
I just lost multirom. I can get into recovery but it looks like there's nothing on the SD card.

I can install it only as a secondary Rom.

See log attached.

Update: May be that's because of the size of zip-file. It's over 350 MB.

Ok...ran into a problem here. Was running Cataclysm as my primary rom and android M preview 2 as my secondary. I used the multirom menu in TWRP to select list rom and then flash zip and flashed a flashable preview 3 zip, and ended up with it flashing right over my primary slot. Any idea what happened? I have a backup but each time I try it still flashes over my primary, not my secondary.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jwhyte:
[MENTION=5315165]dreamwave[/MENTION] correct the m preview from stephenmc overwrites your primary no matter where you flash it. We talked about that a few posts back and posted in his thread. Use the one I posted in 3017 or give any of the ones out there a shot. Just restore your backup or reflash cataclysm as primary.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Prattham:
hello guys

i have primary rom cataclysm with blue spark kernel

and secondary rom cm12 with stock kernel

i want to flash a custom kernel for cm12

how can i do it plus any precautions to be taken before and after?

cheers ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BeDesireS:
Just go to recovery / multirom / choose your cm12 rom / flash zip / and flash the kernel you want. Secondary ROM s kernel doesn't mind, because only the primary ROM's kernel must support multirom to boot a secondary ROM.

As long as the kernel fits your ROM, there shouldn't be any issues.

What's the benefits on having a multi ROM I always use twrp honesty which one is better to use
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BeDesireS:
Multirom is a modified twrp, that allows you to have multiple ROMs installed on your device.

You have a boot menu at start, where you can choose the ROM you want to boot.

Most benefit of multirom for me, is to have the possibility to install a new ROM for testing proposes without touching my daily driver.

Im little confuse does multi ROM do a full wipe when u go and swap to the ROM
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BeDesireS:
Basically it works like you would have windows and Linux installed on one PC. You can run as many ROMs together, as you have space on your device. The only thing they share is the media/0 folder.

Read the first post or watch some of the videos about multirom out there.

Ubuntu Touch and M DP3

Hi, i have a problem to use Ubuntu touch as secondary with latest bootloader and radio with Android M DP3 as main rom.

It seems to install correctly but never boot ... always stuck on Google black screen :(

I have tested with Firefox OS and stuck again on google black screen ... wipe cache and dalvik, flash again and it works ...

I have tested MIUI and it works fine.

How can i solve it ?

Same for me. I'm starting to get paranoid about that update, like if Tassadar wasn't the dev anymore and someone else bough it and updated it with bad stuff.

Hi mates

i have a doubt abot the space multirooms uses

I have 3 roms and I would like to know how much space take up the secondaries. I go to backup (in each secondary menu) and I see how much space take up every filesystem (boot,system and data) but I wonder if each Rom takes up additional space (multirom boot partitions or whatever) or this is just the space a rom occupy.

I hope I have expain me :)

I ask It because I see 7GB lost in my SD and theoretically the secondaries takes up about 2 GB

Thanks in advance

Dekefake worked for me

FYI - I have a Nexus 5 that just use for testing/playing (not as a daily phone). I have Lollipop as my primary OS and MultiRom installed with Elemental's kernel. I downloaded the dekefake link (above) and simply installed it as another ROM under Multi-ROM. I didn't change anything else, just downloaded the ZIP and applied as normal. It appears to be working fine (but again, this isn't my daily phone). I just wanted to pass this along, in case anyone was interested.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
As a secondary right? Primary still boots ok as does M in secondary slot?

Edit: I tried and only hellscore b10 works.

B10 + b15 = bootloop

B10 + reboot + install b15 = bootloop

B10 + blue_spark = bootloop

Always taking as second ROM. In first ROM all is working excellent.

I've been using MultiRom the entirety of the time I've had this phone and it's always worked like a charm, but tonight it randomly ceased working all together. In recovery I still have all of the same multirom additions I had before, but despite having three seperate ROMs installed it won't let me get to the ROM slection screen at all regardless of if I choose to make it time based or use the key press options. If I try to get to one of the other ROMs through the MultiRom application it acts like everything is fine and says the kernel is compatilbe/ patched, but once I select it the phone just boots back into my primary ROM. I can't even boot directly into any of the secondaries from recovery because no matter which ROM I have it set to auto boot into it just boots into my Primary one.

I've tried deleting my secondaries and installing different ones but it made zero difference, so I installed an entirely new primary and the problem STILL persists. Has anyone else run into this and if so what brought this on and how do I put this issue to bed? ANY help would be much appreciated, because none of my research has helped me gleam any info whatsoever. Cheers!

edit: it dawned on me minutes after posting this "oh hey, I've tried a few different M based Primaries, maybe THAT has something to do with my problem that materialzied exactly in tandem with using M as primary for the first time lol!!!!"... sure enough I'm an idiot/ problem solved.
