MIUI v6 5.5.16 and 5.5.20 booted just fine as a secondary for me on D851. This was before the current version of TWRP/MultiRom. The default kernel is actually Rin so no need to flash the standalone version.

I got rid of MIUI. I have SkyDragon also as a secondary. It seemed that after using various Google apps on MIUI those same gapps were screwed up after going back to SkyDragon.

Main Google account even disappeared.

Since they both have the same base it seemed like MIUI was stepping on SkyDragon's toes somehow. Either that or a major coincidence.

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------

Both of those ROMs flash fine as secondary.

Note, however, I had that issue before. Almost every ROM was flashing to the primary slot. But after flashing Eliminater74's first release of Pac-Rom (LP 5.1.x) as primary all flashes to secondary worked fine.

Almost as if the problem was related to the kernel in use before that (Pac-Rom 5.0.x was primary and kept getting flashed over).

If you have another ROM as primary try flashing the kexec 777kernel he released recently then try again flashing a ROM as secondary and see what happens.
[T-Mobile LG G3] callmeshulah:
my steps:

a. downloaded the new pacrom with ota.

b. installed rom gapps and supersu.

c. installed multirom, then modified twrp.

d. restored blisspop from backup as a secondary.

e. installed flexos from sdcard and bang, it overwrites my pacrom.

I am just posting my findings, in case it helps others who maybe trying multirom. a few posts back I had mentioned that installing Rom from internal SD would always overwrite internal roms.

you mentioned all installs work for you, are you on the newest multirom and twrp?

just trying to hash it out so we can all have the benefits of eliminators hard work with this great addition to our g3s.

Correction: Default is 777Kernel by [MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION] Who default Rin's. Only reason, im saything this, To give credit where credit is do.
[MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION] put alot of hardwork into his kernel thats based off of RIN.

Only reason I moved to 777kernel is because I used to use Tootsiepop by [MENTION=3771760]aclegg2011[/MENTION], but things started to go haywire with his kernel. I had permission from [MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION]

to patch his kernel and use it in my multirom project. So I used it here. (Some will say, "You dont need permission for opensource" And I will say, "Its called 'Respect' " )

But as I said before, to get 777kernel to compile with gcc6.0 I had to make a few changes.. I even had to revert his old kexec hardboot patch that [MENTION=2174433]Skin1980[/MENTION] did, So that I can

apply my own patch. The default patch didnt work well with MultiRom v32.. Even applying my own patch. I had to make some changes by hand.

and I also had to edit a few files to allow compiling with gcc 5.1 and gcc6.0..

As you have seen from my screen shots on benchmarking on my Pac Rom thread, I received scores in the 44500 area. as Default G3 is around 30000 area..

I did try the OC functions of 777Kernel and it only stuck at 2.6, wouldnt stay at 2.7. But I dont liketo overclock my device. I only did it for testing and suitableness..

With all that said, im ending my jabbering.. :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] omariscal1019:
So u were using the 4-20 something date of multirom right? Thats weird i tried it but wasnt able to get pass the installing kernel in aroma! Maybe its my device oh well ill tried the previous version of multirom/modified twrp

How did u get passed the installing kernel in aroma mine just hangs there for a indefinite time

[MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION], I was referring to MIUI's kernel is Rin. Sorry if anyone thought I was referring to Pac-Rom or something. ?

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------

Correct on the 4-20 something. :)

MIUI 5.5.16 seemed to flash in a reasonable amount of time but 5.5.20 took a very long time when it was installing the kernel.

With past flashings of kernels I knew to wait it out. It can literally take 10 minutes or longer.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
My bad................ It happend.. we all get confused from time 2 time.
[T-Mobile LG G3] marcdw:
Happy camper today. I really missed Fusion ROM. The 5.1.1 v6.0 has been non-working though.

Was pleasantly surprised to find the 5/24 build flashes and runs just fine.

If there are no major issues I'll keep it as a permanent secondary.

One of these days I'm gonna have to get a 128GB SD and put a larger partition for the ROMs.

And thanks [MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION] for all the hard work you've been doing. ???
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
I got a 128sd chip for both my phone and tablet..

I kinda ended up with 2 by mistake.. but I went ahead and kept them both..

It does come in handy.. Im nowhere near filling it up
[T-Mobile LG G3] marcdw:
This should probably be asked elsewhere but...

All of a sudden SkyDragon will not boot. It just sits there at the LG logo and a pulsating green light.

I've wiped dalvik and cache, reflashed kernel, etc. but nothing.

Looks like I might have to delete it and restore from nandroid.

Can't say it doesn't like the new multirom as all others, including SlimKat, start fine.

Heh, always something but that's part of the fun. ?
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
Thats the thing, Fix one thing and another thing breaks.. SkyDragon has done that too me in the past

as well.. Sometime it worked and sometimes it didnt.,.

Multirom 20150521 (TWRP-2.8.6.X_20150522 build)

I have PacZilla 20150524 running beautifully as Primary in Multirom on my phone.

Installed PacZilla and then TWRP-Multirom/Multirom installer and did not need to flash the kexec kernel separately.

I also have two Secondary ROMs (AICP & BlissPop) on Internal , both restored from previous backup then updated to latest versions,

again running on their default stock kernels without the need to flash kexec kernel on either.

I am able to boot into any one of them cleanly with no issue.

I finally feel the stability of Multirom 20150521 (TWRP-2.8.6.X_20150522 build), especially since it's become simpler to operate with multiple ROMs now supporting kexec in their stock kernel.

Great job!

:good::good:
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
Correction: You do not need kexec hardboot patch on secondary roms, ONLY the primary needs it. Also, any rom that I personally release will have kexec patch already installed.

Pac Rom is my main Primary, so yes I would have it installed.. I released the stand alone 777kernel patched because of problems with the tootsipop kernel that was used before. and it would help

others that needed the kexec patch for their primary.. Its always good to release both, external Kernel and the ROM with the enternal....... Just in case..

As for others now supporting kexec, that was my main goal. MultiRom is here to stay. Hopefully.......... So others supporting it, Is something that I been pushing for....

When I write my guide on building roms, I will show the way on how to patch kernel as well.

And thank you for your comment..

Delete, Posted in wrong thread by mistake............ ment to go Pac Rom
[T-Mobile LG G3] RealPariah:
Awesome, now a bit unsure :)

Ok, got multi ROM installed and booting PAC ROM 5.1.1 (newest beta with omni as of today) which was awesome. Just flashed modified recovery, flashed multi ROM zip (uncheck inject multi ROM after install if you do it in this order (I just extracted .img from recovery zip and used flashify). Only little thing was good thing I backed up my flash directory to internal storage as this modified TWRP does NOT support F2FS which I had my external sdcard formatted to. Easy to fix just go to wipe> advanced> check external sd > format to ext4 and viola recovery was happy. Now if I didn't care bout booting from external I could have left it alone and PAC 5.1.1 reads it fine when in Android, but I want to try out Ubuntu Touch so recovery has to see it.

Which leads to my whole reason for this post. I understand to use pre built image, BUT which should I use? Since Krait 400 can handle ARMHF from what I researched that much I'm pretty sure about. Which image should I grab though generic boot, system, etc.

Page I'm looking at: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/daily-preinstalled/current/

Which file should I grab? Last thing, I'm good with Linux and Android, but new to Multi ROM; How (in a quick and dirty post don't need tons of detail) should I flash it to External SD?

Thanks for porting Multi ROM after I get used to it this is last thing that will make my sweet G3 a true bad ass device :D . If I can get Ubuntu Touch running I'm donating to OP for the Multi ROM port.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
Google search multirom ubuntu touch and there should be something on it, [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] made multirom mainly for Ubuntu Touch. So it does support it fully. But im not sure.. I wanna try it also now.

But, do what I do, try what you think looks right. with MultiRom you can always start over and try the next image.... while keeping all your other builds...............

I live dangerously, Trial & error... :) I will be releasing another build that should have f2fs support hopefully.. read my other thread to get more of the low down on that.
[T-Mobile LG G3] RealPariah:
I was looking online and I could prolly flash it to my device. My question is how would I do that as a secondary ROM? I want PAC 5.1.1 as primary on internal, and then install ubuntu touch as a secondary. I will definitely keep poking. The control app found on market can do this automagically, but since it's not enabled for our device install/update screen stays locked out even after manually installing Multi ROM. You can still use manage ROM screen I believe (Have not yet tested I will, but really want ubuntu full Linux on a fast device in my POCKET, that is just too enticing. Couldn't do this before as I'm poor and can only afford 1 phone so it HAS to be able to be a phone. Just soo awesome there's a working multi boot solution so now I can play and test different things and just reboot to PAC or my daily driver no matter what).

Thank you again for bringing multi ROM to D851!! SO AWESOME.

Oh, you can apparently modify control app rather easy per github project. I'm just not good enough with this sorta thing yet to pull that off personally :'( . If that could happen could use app to run ubuntu install which I'm seeing needs several of those files flashed (boot, system).

Which MAYBE just thought of a way. Install second Android ROM, boot it as secondary, install flashify, use that to flash .img files to appropriate areas that way. Hhhmmm...

As I said I could prolly flash ubuntu as only or primary ROM. Just not sure how to use Multi ROM to flash files to different partitions. Maybe could bother to do an install script flash zip and get scripting right to flash different imgs where needed and could then use TWRP.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
The simplest answer to all your problems is this: Create a flashable zip file of all files needed for ubuntu, then use MultiRom to install it on secondary.. I cant say that it will work fully, I know that multirom has a few extra settings that I dont enable since we never had ubuntu touch. its nothing big just a special file with all the partitions and something else I cant remember. I will create the zip file for you. I already downloaded all the files you wanted,.

Like I said, I dunno if this will work. but it seems like it will. Its generic so that means. our vendor files for blobs like bluetooth and wifi my not work. I dont know. maybe the linux part might be diff.

And as for the MultiRomMgr, I asked [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION] if he can support our device on there.. We will see.. let me know if you want me to create a zip for you..

you might just wanna create a nandroid backup and flash to primary just to see if it works.. I rather not go though all the hassle unless you know for sure it works.

I at one point was going to create a port, but it never worked. couldnt figure out how to get it ported right............ So I gave up.............

But this generic just might work. Dunno.
[T-Mobile LG G3] RealPariah:
Damn, per MultiROM Github you must use their control app to install ubuntu touch. Figures, soo close, and now gotta add a new unfamiliar project and try to look in to modifying control app code to enable it for our device before I can use the functionality I want. This is my usual luck.

If you could possibly look in to it I know you're busy and totally understand, but you already modified MultiROM itself so you probably have way more if the information that would be needed more readily available than I do.

If by some miracle I can figure this all out I'll attach modified apk to a reply post in this thread.

>*< MultiRom Resurrection V32 Now with F2FS Support >*<

​

Update:We now have Full f2fs support with MultiRom, Make sure you download the Modified TWRP and the MultiRom Installer...................

BTW: Good News: We will have this Soon:

I still need to make a few changes.. But Soon enough we will have an app.

Update: I am working on App, Having problems with it finding Recovery and wont show the updates, I even had to put the manifest on my personal website that is off my linux, Its ok, I have a 150MB connection. Before I release this app, (If I even do) I am going to get permission from [MENTION=3418703]Tasssadar[/MENTION], If I can release an Unofficial version of this app, For G3 users only.
[T-Mobile LG G3] callmeshulah:
should probably mention that if you format to f2fs that all roms you try to use would have to be f2fs compatible. i cannot get any ext4 roms to boot to secondary while formatted to f2fs. just a heads up to those wishing to use f2fs.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
Hmm. you know. I just tested out f2fs data,cache and installed pac fresh.. I noticed that multirom didnt work after that.. I couldnt get a menu back up.. Did anyone else have this problem?

Good thing I saved backups. (Hope they work)

Well at least I tried it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] callmeshulah:
yeah i could install the roms and in twrp multirom list roms they would show up, but when i would boot it would go straight to pacrom and multirom wouldnt show up, i thought it was related to using f2fs on ext4 roms, i will test the new multirom using only ext4 and see if it works as intended

**update** using multirom with ext4 file system works without any problems.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
MultiRom is supposed to be f2fs suported.. and you should be able to boot any rom regardless of ext4 or f2fs as long as its on the right partition.

Cannot boot any secondary ROMs after update. Tells me that multirom has shutdown and gives screen of log output.

Not sure what happened here.

Flashed TWRP, then multirom, then latest Pac-Man ROM (reboots in between). After finishing PAC session I wanted to reboot into another ROM and get the errors.

[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
I been using MultiRom for long time now, and I talk to the guy that created it, and never has anyone every bricked and or messed up a phone ever been reported.

Multirom doesnt mess with aboot. If a rom doesnt boot, you just move on to the next or flash another one...

All it acts of a 2nd bootloader that allows you to pick which rom you want to install..
[T-Mobile LG G3] sabresfan:
Outstanding work. I've got bliss on internal and a nandroid of autoprimes unicorn build both booting so far with no noticeable noticeable problems so far. Thank you for your dedication to us.
[T-Mobile LG G3] yanowman:
How do? Don't you have to be EXTRA careful when using new mods and tweaks and kernels as to not brICK? compared to a device not running multirom
[T-Mobile LG G3] sabresfan:
Even if something did happen (highly unlikely) always keep a nandroid backup available so you can just restore and be good to go in a few minutes.
[T-Mobile LG G3] marcdw:
No sir. Been doing all kinds of tests. Roms not booting, things freezing, etc. Nothing a battery pull won't fix (I'll never get a phone without removable battery) and at restart I get the boot manager so I can get back into a working ROM.

In the recent case where there was a bad multirom build (secondary roms would not boot) the primary still worked.

So far nothing major.

You flash a lot of ROMs. MultiRom would be great for you I think.
[T-Mobile LG G3] yanowman:
I really don't get why I'm getting the google play error I am.

Finally went ahead and installed multirom with three steps.... Made newest beta PAC my primary... Wanted to make SR4.0 My secondary and I did.. Until I got the relentless google play error...

I tried making it a secondary as an already backed up ROM... And as installing it zip by zip.

[MENTION=5687366]Eliminater74[/MENTION]
[T-Mobile LG G3] marcdw:
The Google play stuff is of course unrelated to multirom. Everyone across the androidverse has been dealing with that. I'm quite surprised that you're surprised, frankly. Some roms have some sort of fix in place, others do not.

LP-GAPPS of 5/02 is my fallback when all else fails.
[T-Mobile LG G3] djboi2011:
So i searched this thread and found nothing that helped solve my issue. I get the google play store has stopped error with pac and cm12.1 as secondary ROMS. I've tried different gapp packages 5.0 and 5.1.1 but problem still persists. Any solution from any one who's encountered this problem would be appreciated.
[T-Mobile LG G3] zoman7663:
I too have run into this issue. Did you restore a backup as your secondary ROM? That's when this issue plagues me. If I install fresh flash as the secondary then the play store downloads fine and all is well until I try and restore things from TB. Then the ROM gets so laggy that it's unusable. Even tried formatting my ext to ext4, better but still issues preventing from actually using dual boot feature of multirom. I haven't given up but other than saying install second ROM as a fresh flash (not s restore from nandroid) that should solve that.
[T-Mobile LG G3] djboi2011:
Installed secondary rom as fresh flash in internal memory. Guess imma keep trying out different gapps.
[T-Mobile LG G3] zoman7663:
I thought there was a bug preventing secondary ROM install from internal memory (would overwrite primary ROM)? I use my SD CARD with a partition for secondary ROM. I've had good luck with Banks GAPPS in general, but still nothing to solve this issue either way. Lemme know if you find anything that works. Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G3] Eliminater74:
Zoman7663, Yes as far as I know, If you install Secondary rom from Internal memory, It would overwrite your Primary, As the newest MultiRom Update, I dont know if bug is still present..

#####################################################################################################################################

Update: Google Services Force Closures: I am going to post this, Even though this has nothing to do with MutliRom and kinda off subject of what MultiRom is about:

Code: The above is talking about Google Services FC's, Applying that patch to android source tree /libcore will fix it. Which is what I have done in all of my

Roms. unless I forget to apply it during an update.

I hope that answers everyones question about the google services FC's....
[T-Mobile LG G3] marcdw:
Regarding the secondary ROM from internal storage "bug" and the overwriting of primary: Most of my ROMs are installed from internal. When I had the overwrite problem I was running Pac-Man 5.0.x as primary. When I upgraded to the 5.1.x build the overwriting of primary just stopped. This was before the updated multirom.

Wasn't sure why the problem went away and sort of attributed it to the old primary's kernel (no proof of course).

Regardless I have no issues installing secondaries from internal storage. :good:
