This mod / app had so much promise for me. I spent days and days trial and error and finally got it booting on my Note 3 and I could switch between virtual systems but I could not ever Flash to any virtual system it would always fail only thing I could do was just keep making backups and load the backups. So in essence my multi system was really just me flashing creating a nandroid backup comma The Flash and something else and then just restoring the backups when I wanted to switch

I get so frustrated with it that I have not even touched my Note 3 in 3 weeks it was literally the last thing I was working with and I just got too frustrated to keep dealing with it.

I think the actual system and framework might be one of the most brilliant I've ever seen. The gui, the style of scripting… the wraparound Scripts with zero explanation comma very poorly explained and nearly impossible to understand 4 even Advanced power users. I'm certainly not advance but I am definitely a power user and I'm not kidding when I say if I took me a hundred and eighty man hours just understand what the hell I was attempting to do

---------- Post added at 12:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 AM ----------

This gives me so much hope. I really had a bad experience trying to sort through what was trying to do what where and how with each script and launching it's a miracle I was able to get as far as I did

You guys, I nearly got the thing to work on my note 5 with no external SD card, by hacking the mountpoints, and nearly ruining my phone...the technology is solid, the system is solid.

It's the front end that makes instalation difficult. And the directions... and that is by design of the author, who doesn't want threads flooded with bricked "oops. I shoulda done smarter"

I knew, if I bricked my 5, I wasn't supposed to come ask for support. I deserved to be punished for my stupidity...i should be black balled unless I agree to support all the note 5 users who didn't read...ugh. I'd run away from...the Internet.

So, get it running on a device that's listed, and you're in the upper echelon of xda users. Then you'll be able to answer your own questions

How do I finally install the rom zip into the secondary virtual system??

So is there a way to make this app compatible with App2SD? I can't figure out a way to have 2 ext4 partitions mounted so I can have my App2SD linked data in one and multisystem on the other.

Try ROM TOOLBOX PRO I've found things that it allows me to do that other root browsers would not. So I've stuck with it for 7 or 8 years now. And if/when you get ROM TOOLBOX go to root browser and find the . Img file you speak of and instead of copy or cut and paste, use "Move" then select the file to be moved, then go to the folder and open it then click "Paste"

Tip: in ROM TOOLBOX once you're in the "root browser classic" tab, scroll left on the bottom little icon tray and you'll see " favorites". Set up your most used folders so that Everytime you go in to root browser you don't have to navigate thru all those folders to get to sdcard/download/xda_forums or where ever it is you store stuff. And especially handy when moving/copy files from folder to folder.

Good luck

Hope that helps.

You're fine! The boot menu was removed to make it portable to many devices & independent on the OS version. The current boot options are the LED indicator & selection by key press:

HOME KEY: boot the stock ROM

VOLUME UP: boot the primary virtual ROM

VOLUME DOWN: boot the secondary virtual ROM

So...my previous phone was motorola razr maxx xt910 with locked bootloader.

And there was nice app - bootmenumanager or safestrap, which allowed following:

have multiple virtual roms, and stock rom.

So when i had installed stock rom, with stock kernel i could also boot cm based rom which required own, cm kernel.

It was done by kexec.

Is it possible here to have stock rom, with stock kernel, and as second system cm based rom like fusion or blisspop with own kernel witout needing to flash kernel on every boot?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vanemburghj:
I rode the short bus to school so.......

Watched both videos, read the Q&A, and the posts and none of them explains how to install more than 1 virtual ROM. So how do you do that? Have FireFlash installed, however, just not jumping out at me on installing more ROMs. I want to have FireKat and Cyanogenmod as my virtuals with stock 4.4.4 on system partition.

I know you say in post #25 you answered jt1998's exact same concern in Q&A, read Q&A 5 times and just did not see it.

So how do I install like 5 roms? And how do I choose from them?

I dont see how to do that in the tutorial.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sacnotsack:
You would add each rom to a data slot.

When you want to switch roms, you just select the rom you want to switch to (within dual boot patcher) and reboot.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hsbadr:
You need to make virtual IMGs for the 5 (or more) ROMs in

/MultiSystem/img/system/

assuming there's enough space in the 2nd SD card partition (EXT4 MultiSystem partition). All ROMs share all partitions (including data) except system ATM. If the ROMs are very different, you'll need to wipe system data before switching.

Not tested! Test it yourself & report me back!

Read Q&A thread & follow OP instructions! You'll find installation log in

/data/log/MultiSystem.log

You may need to manually mount system & rootfs rw, if it didn't work by default.

The current version may work on S3 as well; it's not tested though.

The dev has real life, family, & work. This is a hobby & I'm supporting it in my free time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] samccfl99:
He probably has a real job!!! Yes it has been a while. I have never been able to get this to work on my G900A. I get close and no cigar. The original video tutorial was too fast and not enough info and the 20 minute video takes too much time on the prep, which is NOT the hard part of this system. I had it on Loop0 once, but then could not get the virtual image to work, soft and hard bricking my phone along the way....LOL. I have tried it many different ways. As far as I can see, there is no way to create an empty IMG and then restore to it, which would seem normal to me. The first time I copied the stock from within the app and then tried to use FF to Wipe and Restore the virtual rom, FF said it ran out of space even though i had plenty space in the EXT4 partition. Then Hsbadr sent me a command to create an img file from the current stock image to a file and then i copied it to /MultiSystem/img/system and even that did not work. Tried it again last nite. I read ALL the posts. And his new steps to install also do not work, on my phone anyway. It seems to be very hard to get a step-by-detailed step procedure for this system. Start to finish in the correct order to get even ONE virtual rom running. Its really too bad, but it does seem like such a complicated system to develop. Linux is truely powerful...yes, powerfully confusing!!! LOL.

THATS MY STORY AND I AM STICKING TO IT !!! (THE ONLY REASON I WANTED TO TRY THIS TO BEGIN WITH IS BECAUSE OF THE DARN LOCKED BL ON THIS ATT S5 SO WE CANNOT UPDATE THE BL OR KERNEL AND SINCE IDIOT GOOGLE, WITH THE GREAT HELP OF S(H)AMSUNG, THEY MADE IT REALLY DIFFICULT WITH THIS ART STUFF AND OTHER THINGS THAT THEY KEEP DOING TO MAKE US PEOPLE WITH LOCKED BL'S SICK TO OUR STOMACH...ALL I REALLY WANT IS FOR VIPER4ANDROID TO WORK AGAIN WHICH REQUIRES PERMISSIVE MODE (SO THEY SAY)):crying::rolleyes::cowboy::laugh::eek:

I have a Verizon Galaxy S5 running stock lolipop unrooted at the moment. My company recently switched to Google Apps for work which forced Android Device Policy requirements to my device, two of which are Device Encryption and Not be rooted. Would it be possible for me to have a image or rom so-to-speak of that is rooted so I can play with "root stuff" and another rom or whatever that is not rooted and is encrypted so I can attach my device to said Google Apps for work account?

Any thoughts? :)

Thanks for reporting! All S3 variants are officially supported now.

You can add unrooted/rooted virtual IMGs. Encryption is not tested yet.

This will get fixed in the coming version, by adding options to separate data & cache for each ROM. No ETA though!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dave7802:
Am guessing this being virtual, then kernel needs to be comparable with both ROMs?

This give me a idea, currently running nethunet kali on my note 3.

One of the things I am come across is loading a external WiFi device with chroot.

The problem with this, is only one WiFi device can be present. so I have to disable internal WiFi before turning on external.

These can only be enabled / disabled by various commands or creating a flashable zip to enable or disable.

My theory was, using kali on chroot as virtual or main (depends on comparability)

An squandered rom as virtual.

So kali can always have the external WiFi enabled.

While normal ROM just uses internal.

I know this won't be possible at the moment as cache and data are shared.

But just wondering down the line, as this may be a massive bonus on top of a big bonus already

Am guessing you can see where this is going.

It seems to be going nowhere. I am waiting to try the next version. I have a G900A and finally got a copy of a rom to boot up on MS.

Someone actually answered me? Thank you. Hsbadr gave me this command to run on my current rom, which did create a virtual image of it...2.5gb like people say.

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system of=/sdcard/Alliance_virtual.img

i then restored odexed stock 5.0 as he said that would be best and then installed and activated MS. i copied img file to the correct place and finally successfully activated the rom and rebooted and like i said, it got stuck on the boot animation with the blue light stuck. battery pull did not help. just rebooted and held the home key down, it went back to stock and i unistalled MS and then just restored my rom. i did not try try to get the logfile. maybe i should have.

do u have any suggestions, other than wait? i would be willing to try again.
