Thats why I said I need a log. as far we know he flashed the wrong one. Im not going to go around in circles with people all day over this,

if people post a log we can get down to the bottom of what the problem is.. To me without a log there is no problem..

and telling me what kernel he used doesnt tell me much. I have had people in the past swear up and down they flashed the right kernel

and come out later they find out they didnt... So again. No log, then no problem........

There is no problem with the MultiRom, or else everyone would be having the same issues.. and from what I been reading.

people have gotten it to work on each variant.

I am just trying to help, by asking for a log.. Any Developer is going to tell you the same thing.
[G3 Android Development] redbeard1083:
log attached....

i see it's booting 777 kernel...it says R9, but the file i've downloaded multiple times and flashed multiple times is labeled and hosted as R10.

thanks for the help, by the way.

What kernel need to be flashed with cloudy as primary rom and aosp based as secondary?
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
You can't use Cloudy as primary for now, because there is no stock kernel with new kexec-hardboot patch.

---------- Post added at 10:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

I don't see any error on this log. Maybe dmesg (after boot) ?
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
Look at this: 0.000000 / 01-01 00:00:00.000] Linux version 3.4.108-AOSP-777-Kernel-R9-dirty (eliminater74@HP_ENVY_dv7) (gcc version 4.8 (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jul 12 13:30:28 EDT 2015

Thats from your log, That means you downloaded the old kernel that I posted a bit back.. That one doesnt work I dont think. 2nd. off thats an old log from July 12th.

I need you to repeat the steps that you took where the multirom wont boot secondary rom. then go into the multirom menu advanced settings and copy multirom log over to sdcard.

then send me that log.. but first plz try and boot secondary rom first.. then send that multirom log..........

we will figure this out one way or another....
[G3 Android Development] redbeard1083:
Weird. Everything you asked me to do is literally what I just did before uploading. If you look at my previous post, I am downloading and flashing the R10 kernel but the log says R9. I wonder if the D850 kernel isn't working properly?

FINALLY! up and running now. thank you for making this and trying to help me.

**edit** the actual reason it finally worked is that there seems to be a bug. i had the kernel on my sd card (/external_SD/my stuff/android roms/g3/multirom/) and flashing it from this location did not work. flashing from internal storage worked (/sdcard/download/).

on a totally different note, i was able to flash cloudy as secondary by pulling the battery when it stops at 90%, booting back into recovery and flashing a kernel to it (i used gabriel5), then it booted. hopefully this helps someone so they don't have to waste time flashing to primary, backing up, and restoring as secondary.
[G3 Android Development] Chilidog:
Ok so I finally got this installed but now I am wondering how do I flash a certain kernel to like the secondary Rom and not the primary?

---------- Post added at 02:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

I just waited like 10 minutes at 90% and then it finished lol
[G3 Android Development] redbeard1083:
boot into recovery, tap multirom, select secondary rom, flash zip.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
Flashing secondary kernels can be a bit of a pain, reason, it takes a really long time.. But there is a work around.......... but you need the boot.img so anykernel wont work.. you need to produce a boot.img for this work

around.. anyhow.. you goto adv in twrp. then click multirom , then click list roms.

then click change partition or whatever.. then click the rom you wanna put the kernel into.. then click remove boot.img, then after it removes the boot.img that same button when you go back will say add boot.img

so then just add the boot.img.. and its quick and fast and simple............

Or you can just wait the time it takes to do it the old fashion way of

going back to the list of roms and clicking flashing zip.. and hope for the best :) it will work.. just takes a super long time....

I hope this will help anyone else that needed to know... Sorry if my English is a little to blunt for most.. But any American will tell you thats how we are.. Be glad im not from New York.. :)
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
This line appears on all multirom setups (tried with 777 r10, and my kernel), it always shows this line, even when we don't use your kernel... In fact, I never flashed your kernel, and I have this line in logs.

---------- Post added at 12:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 AM ----------

I never said that a log would be useless. I know how useful it can be (especially now, when I try to build my own kernel) as a dev (not an android one, though). I'm trying to help too, I was just saying that he already uses a kexec-hardboot patched kernel...
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
hmm.. I dont know why that line would be in it then. when I built recovery it uses kernel. and yes I built with source not use prebuilt.. cause I needed full compression or else image would be too big.

but that shouldnt be in your last_dmsg.. hmm. strange. ill have to look into that and see why..

I have been debating on porting my personal kernel over from my D851 device. But im kinda hesitated because its a very extremely feature rich kernel that with the wrong options turned on or off can cause your phone to mess up.

as long as people leave the defaults alone then its ok. but as soon as they start playing with the many options it has.. well.. Kinda like adding fire to gas..

PS:, Someone asked me once how many roms can you install with MultiRom, I had over 27 roms installed between my 128gb external sdcard with a 10 gig ex4 partition and 32gb usb flash ext4 partition.. I deleted most..

I never install secondary roms on my internal rom. It can be done.. I just dont do it........

I am still waiting on Tasssadar to merge our devices into the MultiRom manger app, so that you can just download the app from playstore and install multirom.......... among other options.
[G3 Android Development] Chilidog:
Ok so I have now installed cm 12.1 as my main and cloudy 2.5 as my secondary and they are working good, I have even flashed zips to them both and its is just as fast as normal. I am now trying to restore a nandroid of my jasmine 8.0 but i cant get it to boot and I don't know what to do.
[G3 Android Development] tetrahedonism:
Well, that's just exciting! Good luck man!
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
For your kernel, you could maybe add a variable in your defconfig to enable/disable dangerous features. That way, you can provide a safe kernel (switch off) and if people are more advanced and wants to try dangerous features, they can build your kernel with the switch on ? That's just an idea ^^.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
The defconfig already has all that.. but that doesnt help for an already built kernel.

Good Example: Some govs have their own hotplug. and you cant have 2 hotplugs running at the same time. would cause a mess or at least could cause a mess..

So you kinda have to know what govs and hotplugs you can use and not use at the same time.
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
I understand, but that's the same for all kernels around here. Users needs to understand how it works before use it ^^, don't worry about that.
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
If I use 777kernel does that mean I would need a AOSP Rom as my primary Rom in order to use multirom correctly? Because 777kernel is only for aosp roms correct me if I'm wrong.
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
You can't use stock-based rom as primary, as you need a kernel patched with kexec-hardboot (and there's no one for stock, at the moment). So yes, you must use AOSP as primary (again, for now).
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
Thanks for the help.
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
I have the d850 running stock 5.0.2 I am rooted and have bumped recovery. Can I install this and the recovery still be able to restore my backups. Also can I install blisspop as my primary then restore my stock backup as my second Rom? Thanks.
[G3 Android Development] diegore11:
I don't know what I did and I wish I could provide more information but I have Lion 5.1, which is based on stock as primary and Resurrection remix and Blisspop as secondaries. I tried to use Gabriel kernel but apparently it didn't work so I use 777jon's kernel.
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
So coming from stock 5.0 I should be ok with using this. What I mean is my phone was purchased with 5.0.2 already on it. Just wondering if you have to come from say kit Kat? Sorry for the mean questions.
[G3 Android Development] diegore11:
I was on kitkat then rooted and updated to lollipop by flashing. Being quite honest, I do not think that you would have a problem with this as long as you follow the instructions. However, I am not an expert only an enthusiastic about these topics.
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
UpDate: D851 New MutiRom V32 Resurrected Posted. Hopefully this fixes the Installation issues..

Compiled with SaberMod 5.1/6.0 777Kernel.. With 2 of my own personal commits from my Nebula Kernel to support compiling of 5.1 and 6.0 of the Kernel.

Hopefully fixed the issue of installing some secondary roms would hang..............

- D851 Only -
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
I finally got this working on my d850. And it works great. The only issue I seem to have and it may just be me thinking this but not sure. I restored my stock backup as secondary Rom and it seem to run really slow. Any ideas or has anyone else experienced this. Thanks.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
When you use anything other then your internal rom, its going to be kinda slow.. if you want speeds closer to your internal then you need to do this.

Method #1:

Create a 5 - 10 gig partition on your External SD card ( The partition has to be last not first. First one is what gets mounted)

Make sure its formated in ext4 (Never tried f2fs on that yet, have on USB, worked good too)

Then install your secondary roms there.. you should be able to at least install up to 4 or 5 custom roms on 10 gb partition with no issues.

speeds are much beter. as long as your SD card has fast w/r access..

Method #2:

Format a USB Flash Drive or whatever you wanna call em. Format in ext4 or f2fs(As long as rom supports f2fs)

Install your secondary to USB Flash.....

MEthod #3: ( I strongly advise agents this method )

Install to Internal Memory. Prob the fastest of all 3

SideNote to rest: Within the next few days im going to be working with a good friend of mine thats is pretty good with C code, and we are going to implant that bump into the code for you peepz with the locked bootloaders. I will create some type of extra config flag for MultiRom for boardconfig, something in the nature of MR_Bump := true ...............

Then if all works right. Ill create a pull request with Tasssadar and see if he will merge it with his main source. Which I wouldnt count on.. but its worth a try.......
[G3 Android Development] vxkillswitchxv37:
Thanks for the help. I have it running well now with Blisspop as main Rom and stock as secondary. I do have one more issue when I am in recovery my phone runs really hot is this normal or should I be worried about overheating. I have seen it as high as 100 Celsius. I don't know if that is hot for a phone or not just the feel of it is what made me ask. Thanks for all the help.
[G3 Android Development] tobitege:
The G3 D85x devices should all already have this line in BoardConfig.mk:

TARGET_REQUIRES_BUMP := true

So you could just use that flag. :)
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
yea I could, but Tasssadar likes to call all flags starting with MR_.. But yea good idea..'
[G3 Android Development] suljo94:
this is normal the fail saves will kick in at around 80°c and your phone shouldn't get hotter then that in recovery.
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
It can go hotter (when you flash kernel in secondary with multirom, for example...), but it should not go higher than 85°C. 90-95°C is a critical point, and you should turn off your phone at this point (pull your battery, except if your recovery is flashing boot/recovery/critical partition), no matter what, because it could break your CPU.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
I know this sounds crazy, but I will flash my roms with my phone setting onto of a windows AC unit. To keep temps around 35c...........

As for hotter recovery, Yes that is a big issue with just about everyone. Not much I can do about that. It really has to do with the default settings on the Kernel and the settings with twrp.

as you know twrp is like a mini boot.img.. uses the same kernel.. but unlike the way you can on your rom change default settings to lower your temps.. you cant with twrp.

I havent played around with default settings much to test all this. I personally with my own kernel Shut everything off except for what need to be on, And I let my users

decide for them selfs what they want on and off. example, I got over 18 gov's to choose from.. and I have 7 hotplugs as well.. I leave gov set to interactive and hotplugs are all off by default..
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
I know nothing can be done about recovery, and that's not a really issue, as average user doesn't need to flash rom everyday. 80C is still acceptable for few seconds from time to time.

If you turn off all hotplugs, then all your cores will be powered on at the same time (not necessary the best setting for temps).

Also, interactive governor is pretty bad on G3, conservative is faster (than interactive, for unknowns reasons, and better for battery.
[G3 Android Development] xhitm3n:
Im getting update binary error /tmp/clear_boot.sh when flashing multirom installer...

i Did this:

flashed multirom TWRP then 777Kernel then Multirom installer gives error, also uninstaller, is this normal? because i can still access multirom features on recovery?

--EDIT--

Fixed, was a bad zip, its working now!
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
Ill look into that.. I personally like zzmoove its got its own hotplug built in and really saved me bat.. my bat will run 3 days on a single charge. with just simi active.
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
Note: Its come to my attention that [MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION]'s newest release kernel has some commits that seem to cause MultiRom not to work right or not at all.........

Maybe this isnt for everyone. that has yet to be verified. I am looking into the issue..

Issues that will happen:

If you flash raw boot.img and then click advanced/multirom/ inject boot.img It will fail....

and then if you reboot. it will fail..

If you use the flashable zip, the zip file can possible fail.....................

But if you remove multirom, Everything seems to work right.......

I have figured that the commits all have to do with the msm.....

I need people who have tried or have installed the newest release from [MENTION=4794976]777jon[/MENTION].

Plz report your pros / cons ..

Thank you..
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
I had these issues. Raw boot.img wasn't working on secondary, and flashable zips neither. I returned to 777 r10 for primary and it's now working. I wait for a fix to go to r11+.

Just for my curiosity : Which zzmoove profile are you using ?
[G3 Android Development] android-develop:
Question

Hi, can I flash Cloudyg3 2.5 rom and Resurrection Remix 5.3 by using multiRom?

thank you
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
The profile I use is the default one that came from the developers github.. I know some of the govs, but im no pro at understanding all details about them.

and even know my Kernel is based off of 777Kernel, W/Permission of course, Its very different in alot of aspects.

I even added Underclocking, as default is 300mhz, can underclock to 264mhz.. Many wont understand the reason for underclocking.

But to make it quick, your phone operates at some freq regardless, but is 300mhz really that necessary to do so little while in sleep mode pretty much.

So to save batt and lower temps, under clocking comes in handy...

Cloudy is based off of stock isnt it?, If it is, No, there is no stock Kernel with the Kexec hardboot patch as of yet..

As for secondary, Yes.. you can.

Example: Resurrection remix as primary and Cloudy as secondary.. that will, at least should work........
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
Well, in facts, the difference (in battery and performances) will not be noticeable between 300MHz and 264MHz...

36Hz difference for a CPU is almost nothing, today (even with 4 cores).
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
you prob right,. but I didnt wanna go to far below. I just wanted it there just in case.. But I have used it.. and my temps drop down to 82F which is 27.7C my temps prior were around 87f/30.5C ..

SideNote: I might be recompiling all the MultiRoms/TWRP over in favor of UBERTC toolchains.. It has now been verified that SaberMod was giving me many problems and I just couldnt deal with it anymore,

I have alot of respect for Paul Beeler, but I need things to work.. After a proven test between saber and UBERTC, UBERTC won...... But I may not need to recompile everything.. I will have to test on my device first then

determine if its needed for everyone or not, I kinda hope its not needed. But like I said, I want my stuff to work. and I want it working as close as to 100% as I can get it.

Also, you D852 users, I will do one for you as well....... I need an automatic script that will do them all without doing one by one.
[G3 Android Development] RL77LUC:
I recommend you to not go below, because it could be really unstable. The temp difference seems too high to me for the only difference, but well, that's still an improvement ;).

I will be glad to try your kernel when you'll release it (but I'm pretty busy with mine ATM ^^), I'll tell you what I think ;).
[G3 Android Development] Eliminater74:
I kinda forgot about releasing it to other G3's.. I get so busy with all my testing and stuff, I just forget about compiling for others. I already went though all the defconfigs for the port.

that was kinda a pain. When I started my kernel, I never planned on porting it to other devices outside from mine. So I never changed any defconfig except my own...

so I had to go side by side compare and all my personal changes has to be copied over to defconfigs..

I still dread the Device tree setup.. its not that simple to just download device tree and go.. I gota make a few personal changes to it, for it to work right....
[G3 Android Development] bambotcha:
Can i install kitkat rom as secondary rom ?
[G3 Android Development] marcdw:
Yes you can. Right now I have SlimKat running as a secondary. Just before that I was using CloudyG3 v1.2 (for some Bluetooth testing, from nandroid).

It'll depend on the ROM of course.

---------- Post added at 10:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 AM ----------

With the latest multirom for D851 I flashed 777kernel R11 against secondary ROM crdroid. Besides the really long flash time the phone reached the hottest ever. TWRP reported 97°C and when I touched the back it was like WOW, OWW. Heh.

There were other issues. After doing activities such as backing up or whatever, on reboot I get a black screen. Had to pull battery. Happened three times.

Before reporting in the D851 thread (I just found this one tonight) I was gonna do more testing but got sidetracked. In the meantime I reverted to the previous twrp/multirom.

When I get a chance I'll reproduce.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krucial86:
So when i originally rooted and installed a custom rom on my note 4 i THOUGHT i did a full backup. This folder that i pulled from the phone to the pc when i originally did all of this looks nothing like the examples im getting while looking up how to restore a nandroid backup. I don't remember if i did it in TWRP. I would assume i did because i have no other program to make a backup with. The folder i have contains WIN files MD5 files and INFO files but i see nothing similar to what everybody else's folder looks like before backup. Any idea what i did wrong here guys? Thank you in advance
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nine5raptor:
Sounds fine to me... here is what one of mine looks like

I would be cautious to use an unknown backup though. See if twrp reads the folder fine and be ready to Odin if it fails to restore (I. E. Bootloops)

This is definitely one of the better cases made for your Samsung Galaxy Tab S. It provides maximum protection, along with being a stylish portfolio.

The tablet fits into a leather holder that then snaps into the case and while attached can be swiveled Portrait or Landscape for convenience. There are pockets for charge and business cards, and it comes with a Pen/Stylus. The stylus included works perfectly with the tablet.

You can also unsnap the holder from the case, making it very convenient without bulk.

The only small issue I found, which I had read in some of the reviews on Amazon, was the lip of the holder makes it a little inconvenient to pull the menu curtain down. I compensated for this by using a gesture in Nova Launcher, and that solved any slight problem.

All in all, it's an excellent value, great protection and an extremely versatile case.

It's available on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/roocase-Samsu...7&sr=8-1&keywords=roocase+tab+s+8.4+executive
[Galaxy Tab S Accessories] Roocase:
catman51,

Thanks for the review. If you have a minute or two, can you try to remove the tablet and try re-inserting it and playing a bit around with the Velcro to see if you can get a better fit ? Let me know if this assist in any way with the pull down menu.

Cheers!
