MultiROM fully updated to support the encrypted devices & the adopted storages,

with the kernel updated to latest kernel sources of 08 & 09 ROM releases.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
MultiROM released with new TWRP UI & full no-kexec workaround support by nkk71, read more about it here.

Patching the kernel is therefore no longer required, MultiROM is now fully autonomous.

It means you can flash a ROM with the Install Zip menu, check "Inject MultiROM...", and that's all you have to do.

Important : In Recoveries or anywhere else, if for any reason on reboot the device stays on,

you can try plug in/out the USB cable, if not, you can use the new KeyReset implementation I added to the kernel :

Pressing both Volume + and Power about 5 seconds will properly reboot the device directly.

Touch is not working whenever I reach ROM selection screen at the time of boot. I tested both the roms by changing default boot in twrp recovery and both are working nice.......the only problem is that I am not able to select the ROM at the time of boot......however I am able to cancel that time popup by pressing power off button but after that no keys as well touch is not working

Using

Internal - latest cm13

And latest MultiRom

Thankyou!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Arvind7352:
If the "Refreshing List" Bar is moving, then you may remove and reinsert the SD Card, so that the SD Card is Detected and that message goes off. Probably that message is preventing you to use Touch.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mvg17:
Well if that bar is meant to stop moving it never stops for me even after removing and reinserting the sdcard........I have installed both ROMs on internal memory.

New MultiROM Release. Major UI update / fix

Suspected for long but never got a clear example to compare,

the UI has always been too giant compared to what it had to be.

So... Completely different... Enjoy :D !
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Major MultiROM core update to fix support of Sony Stock ROM bootimages.

Having MultiROM installed on a 4.3 Primary ROM is now completely possible (tested),

and more importantly, having a secondary 4.3 ROM also does work now.

There is a small warning about this, you can't use a F2FS data or cache partition on primary ROM

if you intend to boot an old ROM like SONY 4.3 because support is missing from the ROM kernel and it will break boot.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
First of all thanks for your work!

I've a question, it's possible uninstall multirom? If so how? Because I see nothing in the first thread.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Thanks.

You have the answers in the 2nd main post.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Tested latest version with secondary stock ROM..rom boots fine but the WiFi doesn't work..don't know if it's multirom related but the last time I've used this stock image I'd no problems with anything (w/o multirom obviously)

EDIT: Seems confirmed, tried 3 different stock or stock based ROM and WiFi doesn't work, it remain stuck when searching for networks.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
[MENTION=5358661]ParanoidNemo[/MENTION] : Never had any issue, mostly on eXistenZ everything works fine.

You're not using the kexec kernels anymore right ?

Examples of the MultiROM UI on my SPs.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
No I've only installed the ROM and booted..have to check the no-kexec startup to make it work tho. Don't know if is that's the problem
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ILYASD14:
Test#02

Damnnnnnn!

Its working with stock roms!

My primary is cm13

And secondary is stock [PureXperince 6.8.0]((4.3 jb))

> But ist working ONLY with no kexec workaround <

Sory for my bad english ?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Yup.

I will no longer support kexec kernels, so I'll let the current ones in place,

but as detailed in the links & in the download, it's deprecated.

The reasons are :

- kexec is never going to be official so needs to have the kernel rebuilt & patch on each update

- My kernel injector makes things far easier accross all CM-13.0 based ROMs but still needs a daily build, download.

- kexec way creates some kernel cmdline glitches because the primary's cmdline is used, the second's is ignored,

> hence if primary is permissive (bad) then second will be too (bad too), and reverse, if second needs permissive, won't.

- no-kexec way works very well, stable & reliable so far in a much more "officially" compatible way.

- Permanent rebuilds and release and flashes no longer required with no-kexec.

I installed multirom kernel , but now I want to flash helium kernel and come back to single rom, How can I do that ?

sorry for bad english
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
The instruction to how to revert multirom are in the first couple of post. If you want to use helium just flash it and it should works
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] miladn78:
Tnx , If I want delete roms , how can I do that ?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Go into recovery, select the ROM you want to delete and tap "delete ROM"

Multirom stole 1GB of my internal memory by "preparing zip file" (installs roms on sdcard) and dont know how to racover my lost space
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Arvind7352:
That's temporarily used space, which will be freed after the ROM has been successfully installed. Multirom does all of it's work in Internal under 'multirom' folder. So check how much space does it occupy.

I didn't encounter such situations. Using MultiROM since several weeks.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] misiek998:
Solid Explorer shows empty folder, without hidden files, and I cant delete this folder. I think reflash main rom is the best solution here
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Arvind7352:
..Should have read the FAQ (i.e Post #3) [emoji53]
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] misiek998:
Got it, deleted - only 6MB less :)

I try also "disk usage" app but they didnt help. In the worst way I must delete also all internal memory... Ah Android
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Arvind7352:
So it isn't MultiROM. Check for other factors. :) (I didn't get such occupancies by it)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] misiek998:
It is multirom fault, because it hangs at "preparing zip file". Yesterday I have been tried restore nandroid backup but it goes wrong with error when restoring data. So already I have clean main system and 4,8GB/5,3GB used in internal memory without anything special on it
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Hi guys,

I was wondering if could I update a secondary ROM without deleting it first, let's say dirty-flashing the new one?

Because I've tried entering the rom folder and using "install zip" option, but I receive an error message that say that I doesn't have enough space to install the zip (I've ~1700Mb free and the message sais that I need at least 551Mb free)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
Of course.

Problem is that you need that free space in the internal storage,

it expands itself into data & moves to MicroSD after that,

a bit annoying but you get used to it after all.

Hi

When I install second rom in SD card then i reboot to second rom I can't access to sd card files ,Why ?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Arvind7352:
(You've self answered your question)

Since ROM is installed in SDCard and MultiROM prevents access of Secondary ROM's Files by the Secondary ROM's Android System itself, you can't explore your SDCard.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
New release on 3rd May 2017.

Includes the fix to properly detect offline charger when MultiROM boot UI is installed.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] AdrianDC:
New special release of MultiROM from 20170607.

Implements something I wished to fix for at least 10 months on MultiROM:

External storage (MicroSD or USB Drive) using Ext4 or F2FS file systems are

now finally accessible from the Android userspace once booted from them,

by means of a special new storage folder called 'external_multirom' that serves

as a bridge between the external storage and Android.

You can therefore once again use the external MicroSD with Ext4 and store music, data, ...,

without Android blocking access to it with "Corrupted storage" notifications.

Why use Ext4 / F2FS MicroSD in the first place ? With MultiROM, these allow us

to install secondary ROMs directly on the MicroSD without setting space sizes / limits,

therefore directly on the drive instead of independent disk images as done for vFAT / FAT32.

The storage space is unlimited / shared between all installs and are faster to create / run / use.

All technical details about the issue and the implementation can be seen here : https://github.com/AdrianDC/multirom_core/commit/0acfa4c53429a7fcf7c2c573b857f2ae69ca5b5a

Hi [MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION]

I m Trying to build Mrom Recovery from your source for 8.1 but i m getting this error..

Can u please have look at log ?

https://pastebin.com/PdGp20cM
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] I_hacker:
Hm... I have two roms installed, Nougat and Lolipop. Lolipop is on my sd card(class 10, 32GB). When Im using lolipop, i cant access my sd card.. Can't mount sd card...

I tried MM on sd card and sd card is mounted by default.

This is probably android version related problem. Any fix for this?

Anyway, tnx [MENTION=2233641]AdrianDC[/MENTION] for this multirom mod. Its awesome :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] rbertoche:
Anybody else tried some flavor of 8.1 under MultiROM? Should I try AOSP instead of lineage?

I have installed MultiROM over lineage-14.1 with ease but I'm strugling to boot AdrianDC's last unofficial lineage-15.1 from external sdcard as secondary.

It tries to boot and freezes at a SONY logo that never goes away.

Does MultiROM generates any logs in this case? I can't find them

I'm using exfat. Next time i'll format it with e2fs or ext4 and try again.

nkk71 RIP :,( it's so sad

edit:

Using f2fs doesn't fix it. I'll download and try AOSP 8.1 after checking some post on it's thread. Right now I'll check if a copy from primary to secondary is able to boot

edit 2:

still no luck, now trying AOSP 8.1

Do you know how can I disable the digest check? AOSP gets modified by MultiROM and fails to pass it
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] rbertoche:
I guess it was all about a faulty sd card and the md5 digest file that messes up with MultiROM recovery, after renaming it AOSP 8.1 gets installed and boots normaly

The only awkward thing was GApps struggling to do something at the first 3 boots, it really seemed to be getting nowhere and somehow managed to exit successfully

Now I'm posting here to ask about problems with internal storage access

I can't take pictures and even screenshots, the latter appear as 0B files on internal storage

Anybody got a working camera at oreo running as secondary?

PS: tell me if I'm flooding something thats flopping please
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] rbertoche:
For anyone falling on the same pit as I did:

After installing a new ROM as primary MultiROM recovery failed to inject boot sector with the following message written twice on the output:

"failed to get trampoline version"

Trying to inject boot sector after the flash process gave me the same messages.

Then I reinstalled both MultiROM v33x and MultiROM recovery - just in case the ROM did something over it's recovery - and then it rebooted and I proceeded to the first boot of the new primary ROM.

So don't fret about that trampoline! =P
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Verity.:
I've got a problem here. I'm on AOSP 7.1.2, flashed multirom and recovery and when I enter to the TWRP, in the 'advanced' tab there's no multirom option :/ How do I fix that?
