I've flashed android L as a secondary rom, and tried to update the radio from the recovery(multirom -> list rom -> set radio.img).

But now after boot android L no longer recognizes my SIM(it doesn't ask for a pin, and the signal bar stays empty).

How can I revert to the old radio?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yanner2012:
Here you find radio http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=47164660

Flash it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GIKE:
Radio must be flashed in the main menu of the recovery, not in the multirom secondary rom menu because it's for the phone, not rom specific.

I want multi boot L and 4.4.4. Is it possible?

When I load the 4.4.4 image zip it doesn't work.

If I only update radio which is from android L,can I do so?

coz I dont want android L..I just want new radio from that and want to use that with 4.4.4..will that work?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] krazeecracker:
Yes you can.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adityameena26:
yes..its possible :)

just go to recovery..multirom menu..install preview zip and on next restart choose new option from boot menu..first boot will take longer because of ART :)

Flashable Zip

Got L flashed okay but now I have no signal. Says mobile network unavailable. I flashed radio first from multirom section and then I installed normally...no change.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] adityameena26:
I just flashed new radio along with my 4.4.4 rom..its working fine..I think people who flashed radio in 'multirom' section of recovery,are having problem..

try to reinstall L from 'multirom' or just try to wipe data..hope this will work..and only flash radio,normally..:)

Its not that hard, download the zip and flash as a secondary. That's it the zip linked in this forum is FOR MULTIROM ONLY IT WILL NOT WORK AS A PRIMARY ROM WITHOUT MULTIROM.

Does anyone here know a free app to automatically sync my text messages between ROMs? I tried MightyText and MySMS both both are paid services (and rather expensive).

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
The MultiROM Manager app was updated to v1.119 v1.120goddamit v1.121 and it now supports the Android L preview. I'm not happy about the workarounds I had to make around SELinux, but it works. And my app isn't even doing anything fancy, making root apps just became a nightmare.

It will be on Play Store in several hours, here's link if you don't wanna wait: http://d-h.st/Unp

PS: It doesn't have the new nice material design because apps with it can't be released to play store yet.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TooSlo:
I'm enjoying the L preview so far, but I'm definitely missing a few things that require root access. Has anyone heard of BusyBox being updated to support it just yet? I believe this should allow usage of things like TiBu and Viper4Android.

I'm torn on some of the aspects of L so far, but to have it as a safe bootable multirom is fantastic. Thank you for putting in the time and effort to make this available for the community.

Do not share kernel with primary ROM. The bootanimation will show for about 10-15 minutes sometimes. It isn't frozen. It isn't boot looping. Install it as secondary, DO NOT share kernel with primary and boot into it. Now after that, go watch an episode of your favorite TV show on Netflix or something. When you come back it'll be booted. You just aren't giving it enough time. It takes a loooooong time on first boot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] _Infamous_:
If I don't share kernel its says no patch kernel installed and won't even try to boot
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Something is wrong with your MultiROM setup then. Try starting over from scratch. It's an issue on your end, has to be. Too many of us are up and running just fine. I don't know what to tell you. :/

Did you update you MR version to v25 or still on old version?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vekexasia:
I tried also but i've issues with multirom + stock rom + android L . Stock works while Android L tells me that the kernel is not kexec enabled ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] badutahboy:
I just attempted to install DU (both the 6/21 and 6/14 ROMS). I'm using MultiRom V25 and am replacing CM11 as my internal ROM (the 6/14 rom works fine as a secondary ROM).

I installed the ROM, then wiped Dalvik/Cache and rebooted. It booted to the boot animation and would not progress (I let it run for about 15 min). So I rebooted to recovery, went into the multirom advanced setting and injected the current boot sector and tried again. Same issue.

After installing both the 6/21 and 6/14 ROM with no success, I went back to CM and it installed and booted with no issue.

Any advice as to what I'm doing wrong here?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
If I remember correctly, that's been brought up before. I think it's an issue with the ROM.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] badutahboy:
Any idea what? Everything I can find says it should work. The stock kernel with DU even has kexec support, so it shouldn't have any issues, right?

It's just weird to me that the ROM will boot and work perfectly as a secondary rom, but not as the default/internal ROM. .
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shhbz:
well why don't you install it through fastboot the factory image to get it internal and later choose the choice of you rom on secondary
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
No idea. Have you tried flashing a custom kernel that has kexec patch on top of DU and see if it works? Or maybe installing it as a secondary and using the swap ROM feature to try to get it working as a primary?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] badutahboy:
I did install Franco over the top and no dice.

Just tried swap ROM and it worked. Crazy!

Thanks for the tip. much appreciated.

Android L issues

I see many people having problem with installing Android L in MultiRom, but I also see most of them installed Android L and patches in the wrong way. Now that I want to make it clear:

1. Android L can't be installed as the primary rom. One prerequisite to be primary rom is the kexec-hardboot patched kernel. ATM there's no revealed source of Android L, so there's no such kernel.

2. Radio can't be installed to secondary roms from the MultiRom menu. Radio is separated from roms, all roms use the same radio, so radio must be installed from the Install button in root menu of recovery.

3. Android L can't share the primary kernel. Android L doesn't work with 4.4.4 kernel and before, so obviously it can't work in Share kernel mode.

Besides, the download link of Android L in this thread was built to work on MultiRom as a secondary rom only. Other ways will fail.

Hopefully this will help solve common mistakes with Android L and MultiRom. Cheers.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wigginst:
Is the post 1213 version so the correct one? That's the last one I see so just making sure.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] paulpoco:
Can the OP be updated with links to L flashable zip?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
No it wasn't, why do you always think that. How would I even do that. It should work regardless of where you flash it. If it fails when not flashed as secondary ROM, then get me the recovery log so I can fix it, it isn't inteded behaviour.

BTW, set radio.img in recovery doesn't work for L ROMs because SELinux right now. Should be fixeable though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wigginst:
Installed l with no issues on multi rom! Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] albert_htc:
Hi

Hopefully not a stupid question..

If I install multirom and select the patched 4.4.4 kernel how would I upgrade the device in the future ?

Up to now I've been flashing Vomers 4.4.x stock rooted ROMs.

What would I need to do to ensure everything works correctly ?

Thanks..

PS. Would the process be the same on the nexus 7 2013 ?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Lydar:
I use multi ROM right now and my PRIMARY ROM is android L... It did however take some time to boot the first time. You are right that you cannot share the kernel but that goes for many Roms. Stock uses one code while Cm uses another and I'm fairly sure even miui uses another code for the kernel.

Finally, Android L worked for me.

Installed Android L as primary ROM,

Installed MultiROm and Stock 4.4 kernel with kexec-hardboot patch .(It worked with Android L.)

Then add CM11 latest Nightly as secondary. (Dont share the kernel)

now flash kernel with "kexec-hardboot patch" into Cm11 using List Roms in MultiROM TWRP..

Worked like a charm

give it a try

Make sure u have root access in Android L

One Observation.

There is no network in Android L.. havnt figured out the reason why, but CM11 worked just fine ... :)

Please ask if u have any doubts
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sylau90:
Hi guys, just flashed the android L preview as secondary rom... the booting is not as bad as I expected and loaded successfully. However, the whole system is presented with some weird languages and english...anyone knows what can cause that?

The languages is very weird(like russian) but there are always one or two english alphabet behind of it.

I have attached some photos

My primary rom is MIUI with android 4.4.2.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tyrany:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Nelsocracy:
For some reason that's the default language and it's called English (Xa). No idea what's up with it but just change your language to us English or whatever.

Anybody else having issues reading the sdcard? I can see folders but nothing in them.

Also my camera doesn't work. I think the two issues might be related though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Tyrany:
This is something i'm wondering about, if someone else got socess using L as primary rom with a 4.4.4 kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sandix:
You can use fastboot as primary ROM with 4.4 kernel I believe someone confirmed in a previous page.

My camera works but I have the same sd card issue.

Also, thanks a bunch to the OP. I installed your program just to play around with L and I have to say that your program is fantastic. I love it's simplicity. I read your directions & had no issues. Also, thanks for your L ROM zip; it's the one in using. Great work, sir!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
To those saying L doesn't have network with a 4.4 kernel, the reason is simple.... 4.4 kernels break network connectivity on L.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] llblwskydrgn:
Does this mean if we run Android L as the primary and use MultiROM, we cannot have network connectivity?

I am currently running Android L and trying to figure out if I should flash the kernel in order to use MultiROM to get ParanoidAndroid as well. I looked at current posts, but it isn't super clear whether you can run L as primary and have network connectivity.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Mopar68Charger:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] llblwskydrgn:
Yes I read that post. However, in post #1339, Tasssadar directly argues against what was said which lead me to believe that Android L can run fine as a primary with MultiROM.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GialanG:
No, he only meant that the image can be installed as primary. But the problem is with the kernel, ATM there's no patched kernel to work with MultiRom. Some reported ElementalX on N5 and N7 2013 (which have patched kernel) work on L, but there are some problems such as broken wifi, SD card not shown, wrong report of SD capacity, baseband not shown or network connection error... So anyone can try it as primary rom, and come back to secondary if issues happen.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
AFAIK there isn't a single 4.4.x kernel that works fine on 'L'. Uber kernel will boot as well, but no baseband. Sadly it's going to be that way until Android L kernel source is released.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] afraaa:
My mistake ... multi rom fully work with L alongside other kitkat rom .. thanks for awesome Application ..

I just read how to install/flash the Google Apps in my secondary ROM, but the installation failed. I'll try to flash it again. It failed again. I'll download it again. EDIT: Fixed.

would also need where to find the Android L zip to flash, I read there's a specific one in this thread.

I got AL working great on my flo. ART feels nice and snappy. Someone was saying they got the 4.4.3-4 elementalX kernel working, is that correct or am I just being stupid?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] phanitej:
It works but u loose the baseband. Not really compatible on Android L.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
Well I'm gonna state some stuff which may contradict with what I said earlier.

Wanna run L as primary ROM and have multirom: NOPE, WONT WORK

Wanna run L as primary ROM and not care about multirom: Yes it works.... But people expect you want multirom if you're on this thread.

The reason why the earlier doesn't work is simple. As "L" needs a new kernel, which we don't have any sources for, we can't build a "L" kernel with multirom support. If you try to flash a 4.4.x kernel on L, it might boot but radio doesn't seem to work.

Hope you are clear now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] llblwskydrgn:
Thanks, I think I understand now. I guess it would be best for me to flash another ROM for my primary with a kernel that works with MultiROM and then have Android L as a secondary. Sorry, I am new to MultiROM so the posts before were confusing to me but I think I get it now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Papa Emeritus:
I am running elementalX 2.13 and it is butter. Also running tricksterMOD. Ran a antutu BM 22813.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GialanG:
Wrong thread?

BTW, this is your perception. KitKat and L kernels are different, no dev here knows what the detailed differences are. ElementalX 2.13 was built for KitKat, so one thing I know for sure is I'm not sure of what really happens when flashing a KitKat kernel over Android L.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Citizen_Snips:
Are you saying you want a different kernel on ROM 2 than on ROM 1?

So for example ROM 1 (internal) = stock with Franco kernel

Secondary ROM 2 Mahdi with chaos

Like that? Just go to advanced > multi rom > list Roms > *select secondary ROM* > flash zip

Just flash the zip file from there. Just make sure it has the multi boot patch if I'm not mistaken.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] snives:
MultiROM allows you to use different radios for each ROM. I'd start by confirming you are using the same one on 'Internal' as each slot.

stupid question.

Flased Chaos v6.0 with MultiROM support. App confirmed patch applied.

installed DroigKand and I can see it in recovery, but there's no pop up suggesting to choose which ROM to boot. even if I'm selecting to boot from Kang - still primary ROM.

I flashed ElementalX and CM11 from app - no luck.

I installed MultiROM v19 somewhat a week ago and quickly flashed ROM there and i saw that blue pop up, but today new version of recovery came and I updated it and now I cannot bott 2ns ROM.

What I'm doing wrong?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
ElementalX borked multirom for me flashing it to a secondary rom. Kept getting a popup in TWRP asking for a password after flashing and then multirom reported not installed from twrp
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GialanG:
You should check the "Inject..." check box before flashing a new kernel or tap the Inject... button after each time you flash a new kernel for internal rom to make it work for shared kernel roms. Even now you can try and see the result.
