Following this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2447534 you'll find an app called Dual Boot Patcher.

With this app you can patch ROMs for dual booting. No need for special recovery, no need for kernel with kexec patch. You can even flash the ROMs from within the app. Only thing thats missing for now is backup and recovery, but according to the dev it will be implemented.

How To:

1. Download the app here https://snapshots.noobdev.io/ and install.

2. In the app go to ROMs. There you'll find your current ROM. press the three dots and choose "Set Kernel". Now you're ready for patching and flashing you first ROM.

3. Choose "Patch zip-file" from the main menu. There you choose which slot. On OnePlus One you have to choose Data (rom gets installed on data partition) as our system partition is to small to support multiple roms. After the Rom you can patch gapps and other files to flash (supersu, v4a, etc) the patched files end with data-slot-xx.zip e.g. cm13.zip -> cm13data-slot-01.zip

4. now you can flash the patched files either in recovery or directly in the app.

Coming from the LG G2 which had no MultiROM I'm using this app for a long time with no problem. Right now i have 3 Roms on my phone. Primary is AOSParadox 5.1.1, data slots are Sultans cm12.1 and Omni 6.0
[ONE General] wickedninjalo:
That's very cool, thank you for sharing I will be trying it
[ONE General] `SBR`:
Tried the app in s4, quite useful one also having support for app sharing... I thought it never supports one plus one... Well try..
[ONE General] abhibnl:
Thanks for sharing mate. BTW, is there any possibility of a hard-brick? Since i barely get any free time from my job and opo is my primary & only device, i really can't go through all the hassle of recovering from a hard brick.
[ONE General] wickedninjalo:
Gave it a try. Didn't work on patching zip. Threw an error code - 15
[ONE General] tropenfrucht:
Honestly I don't know. I've used it a lot on my G2 and my OPO. Never bricked anything. If it happens that the patched ROM does not boot just boot into recovery and flash the boot.img of your primary ROM. You can find the boot.img at data\multiboot\primary.

Strange. Never had an error while patching zip files. Did you use the patcher app on your phone or the windows version? I never tried the windows version.
[ONE General] wickedninjalo:
Phone version, I'll give windows version a try and report back
[ONE General] Bradl79:
can't install the utilities due to opo does not support aroma, i patched and flashed and changed to secondary and does not boot

---------- Post added at 08:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 AM ----------

i don't believe u will hard brick due to its flashed to the system or data, so all u have to do is make a nandroid backup 1st, and if things go wrong, like above just flash ur boot image or just restore ur nandroid.
[ONE General] SergeantSarcasm:
Same here. Got an error code 15 while trying to patch

Also, does it matter what data slot ID you enter?
[ONE General] rendlavenu:
@ tropenfrucht This is very helpful feature and I have been using it for over a month and the best part is easy to use :) keep up the good work.

Great mate

Do i have uninstall multirom first or may I have both systems?

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonepalm:
I just picked up a couple brand new Nexus 6 on a sweet deal (not the 6P, just the 6). My wife and I both use one now. We both noticed that when the earpiece volume is set to the lowest, someone near us can still hear the conversation. So, if my wife is talking to someone on her phone via the earpiece, I can hear that person talking when I am probably 3-5 feet away. Not at a speaker phone level, but clear enough to hear the entire conversation. Me, coming from a Nexus 5 and my wife coming from a Moto X, we didn't have this problem before.

Is there any way we can adjust it to not allow for this to happen anymore? What can one do when the lowest volume setting is still just a little too loud? We'd just like a little more privacy when using the phone during a call.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NLBeev:
Try the app 'Volume Control plus' from FirestormApps
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lonepalm:
Thanks, I'll look into that, but was really hoping there was something that can be done without needing a 3rd party. I know older phones/OS would have some sort of enhanced privacy setting, which I can no longer find. I don't even know if that setting is what I think it is, but it just seems like there has to be some other way? Even the phone's lowest volume for ringtone is much louder than then Nexus 5's. I realize they are different phones with different manufacturers/hardware, but I guess I figured volume levels were the same or at least close.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alien_jiggy:

Any help
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zinloos1:
Same problem here.

Have not found a way to fix this, apart from installing another lockscreen which turns off your fingerprintscanner.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alien_jiggy:

[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RedMaio:
I did return the phone in september after only a day of usage, pretty much just for software littlenesses like this one... that's just a shame for a phone like this, if just huawei would relase codes to get AOSP built...
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largamelion:
Same problem, very annoying. Really hope this gets sorted in 6.0. Might give NiLS a try as I used this on my previous phone running 4.4.4.

Actually going to install it right now, I'll let you know how it works on the Honor 7.
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmitJordy:
Hi Largamelion,

Did it work
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largamelion:
Yes NiLS works very well. I turned off all notifications on lock screen from EMUI and replaced them with NiLS. Finally getting notifications from Gmail on the lock screen and all notifications can be expanded. I can recommend this to everyone. The free version has everything I need but I might buy the premium one for just 2$ to support the dev (who is btw a member here on XDA).
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AmitJordy:
Thanks for the update
[HTC Desire 500] micko9854:
Does this solve problem with vibrations from rumrunner proto 0.71 S-OFF or vibrations still stay?And can i use only disabled driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1 without modifying registry i run windows 8.1 on BIOS not UEFI and have legacy boot mode so i can on F8 select disable driver signature enforcement on number 7.
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
This should solve any software caused problems, since it rewrites the bootloader, radio, recovery, system partition and data partition. Your phone will be S-ON and unrooted, just like it came from the factory. I don't know about the driver signature enforcement on windows 8.1, I didn't try it. I only tested the above solution on windows 10, both Legacy and UEFI boot.

If you are S-OFF you can use any RUU .exe file if you do this:

Boot into fastboot mode, enter the command "fastboot oem readcid". Make a note of your original CID.

Enter the command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111

Enter the command "fastboot read cid" - it should confirm your CID is 11111111

Reboot the bootloader.

Don't forget, before you flash the RUU you have to relock the bootloader with fastboot oem lock command
[HTC Desire 500] sharleyP:
It doesn't work. After I type fastboot flash zip Z4UIMG.img i get an error "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)".
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
Your bootloader must be locked before you flash

Your must flash the file matching your phone CID, otherwise it won't install. HTC signed encrypted files check the country id and firmware version before they install. So you can not downgrade the firmware, only upgrade it. Try the RUU_Z4_DUG_Asia file if the European does not work. Check your phone CID with fastboot oem readcid and see for wich country your phone is.
[HTC Desire 500] sharleyP:
Bootloader is locked. I performed all steps form your instruction. I tried Asian file but it also does not work - same error. My CID is HTC__032 - Eastern Europe.
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
When you connect your phone, don't use a USB3.0 port, only 2.0. I have the same CID as you and had no error flashing European HTC file. Try with the bootloader unlocked, try another data cable, remove phone battery and start the process again. You can copy Z4DUGIMG to your SD card and reboot the phone in fastboot. Hboot scans the SD card, and the update should automatically begin, but I haven't tried this. As a last solution, use Rumrunner s-off to get s-off (works with Desire 500). After S-OFF write your CID with command "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" (SuperCID) and you should be able to install any HTC firmware for this phone.
[HTC Desire 500] TheRealJoker31:
I got the CID HTC__102 and i f*cked up my phone. I didn't done a Backup. I tried to Flash James Rom and the U.F.O Rom, but it failed with unlocked bootloader and S-ON... I have Radio-14.16.36Q4.22

I tried it with the Ruu Asian Version, but it doesn't sends/loads the 5 Files to my Phone... It just goes on and on, over 10 minutes... there are just the dots .. , ... , .... , .... , ..... , ...... , and so on.

I relocked it before trying the Ruu Thing. Bootloader Shows Relocked. I got TWCM installed an having the Single Sim Version from Germany :)

I hope you can help me! Thanks very much :)

I Forget to say, that i can see my device with fastboot devices, but i got a couple of Errors trying to install al the roms, i done also the Complete Wipes. And i got no OS installed!!
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
Have you tried flashing the 0P3ZIMG Z4_U HTC Europe using fastboot commands and didn't work? Have you used a usb 2.0 port?

Check out this thread also and try the roms there for your hboot version
[HTC Desire 500] TheRealJoker31:
Yes, Sir. Tried that already. I am using USb2.0 Ports, yeah.

The =P3ZIMG Z4_U HTC Europe is the first one from the Forum-site you send or? The one with ~689MB?

Trying it again now, adding a Screenshot

http://www.xup.in/dl,66261527/HTC_FLASH.PNG/
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
Download the European RUU Z4_U (not the 0P3ZIMG). Run the RUU on your computer until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar. There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC recovery and it is needed to run the RUU. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.

Unlock your bootloader

Open a command prompt in ADB folder. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img or fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img

Relock the bootloader using the following command:

fastboot oem lock

Re-run the RUU on your PC
[HTC Desire 500] TheRealJoker31:
For me ist not: recovery_signed, ist boot_signed, flashed it with the command: fastboot Flash recovery boot_signed.img , went fine, and then fastboot oem lock while in fastboot it restarted and showed above again Relocked, and then started RUU again and it's doing the same Thing, it just don't proceeds, it stays at 0/5 files.

EDIT: I didn't said that my phone Shows the black Background with silver/White HTC Logo during this try to send the 5 files, or whatever it tries to do...
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:

[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
I think that you can not flash the firmware.zip because it detects that you have a custom recovery installed. If you want, you can open firmware.zip, extract the stock recovery named recovery or recovery_signed and flash it using fastboot, with bootloader locked

Or you can skip this and install James ROM

Just use the instructions in the thread
[HTC Desire 500] TheRealJoker31:
He says: Custom recovery (cwm!)

Do i really Need CWM? I like TWRP more, because i can install it directly through WinDroid Universal Android Toolkit.
[HTC Desire 500] razvangrig:
TWRP installed through WinDroid is not good, it has many problems.

This is the best recoveryfor your phone. You can use touch like TWRP or buttons like CWM, it's your option PhilZTouch 6.59.0 (hboot-1.03.0001) One Sim by RealDob

Unzip, Ignore the "clockworkmod" folder, it is for aroma file manager. You only need recovery.img

copy recovery.img to fastboot folder on PC

boot your phone into fastboot mode

type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

reboot

After that, flash custom rom

Try uninstalling any phone usb drivers and phone software from pc (like Samsung Kies, etc, not just HTC), and use the links and instructions I provided in the OP to reinstall HTC drivers and Adb-Fastboot. Don't use the Minimal ADB and Fastboot, install whole kit from scratch. There must be a problem with your HTC and/or ADB-fastboot drivers or the usb data cable you are using, it's the only explanation I can think of.

I want to install the latest stock firmware 1.34.XXX. Tried everything in the guide step by step. Tried it on win 10 x64, win 8 x32 x64, win 7 x32. The device is unrecognized by the PC. On the win8 x64 system, the exact same setup, just connecting my other phone HTC Desire is immediately listed by "adb devices"

The phone is not rooted, bootloader unlocked and have s-on.
