[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] CreepyE:
Ok so i used to use this back when i had my nexus 5, and now that i have to 10 its like im a noob again. i have Viper installed as a primary but everytime I add a Rom as a secondary i cant them to boot. Mainly trying to get CM and Ressurection but neither will boot whatsoever. Ive done the restorecon and also change kexec to ask upon boot and tried both options but nothing seems to work at all. Can anyone chime in and help me out please and thanks
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Well, first off, at the time of this writing there are no "kexec-hb enabled" kernels, so you can choose whatever you like, but you're still going to have to use the no-kexec method.

As for the second part, I cannot guess why you're ROMs aren't booting, I haven't had any issues flashing or booting any of the ROMs mentioned in the the OPs screenshots.

And as per the FAQs, which I would

really really like people to follow

Something not working, or you need help debugging

Please provide the following information:

a detailed explanation of the problem

.

the recovery.log (found in /tmp/recovery.log or by copying it to the sdcard and then copying it to PC)

.

the link to the thread

and

name of file (+ which version) you are having problems with

.

due to the large size of some of these ROMs, I may not have time to download and test them, so please also upload the updater-script (found in ROM.ZIP under /META-INF/com/google/android/)

I have also failed to mention kernel logging in the above post, since I added that after that was written, which may (or not) be helpful, depending on where you get stuck. (eg flashing, bootsplash, boot menu, booting, bootanim, etc)

This is not a guessing game, if there is something wrong, then we need information... "It doesn't work", neither provides

any

useful information whatsoever, nor does it encourage anybody to help you.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
Simple question. My secondary rom has the wonderful lock out where I need to delete the lockscreen.db file but I see no way to browse the secondary ROM files in TWRP. How do I do that? It's easy on the primary ROM as I can use the file explorer.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Same procedure, make sure the partition is mounted in TWRP -> Mount, then using TWRP file manager

Internal Storage: browse to /data/media/0/multirom/roms/<name of rom in question>/data/system/

EXT4 Partition: browse to /sd_ext/multirom-pme/<name of rom in question>/data/system/

and delete the locksettings* files
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] tabp0le:
I'm running Stock on my Internal slot and Viper10 on my secondary slot. Also on my secondary slot, I'm using ElementalX kernel. For some reason when booting secondary ROM it bootloops 3-5 times (and even asks every time which ROM to boot) before finally booting successfully. I searched the thread for this problem and it doesn't seem to have been talked about.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
which version are you running? that sounds like pre no-kexec 4.1 bug

please use the RC2 from the downloads section.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] tabp0le:
I was running the version from 9/17. Just installed RC2, it is working now! Thanks!
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
:good::good:

Yeah, that one was weird to track down :eek:

Should have and update coming soon anyway... but I've been saying that for quite a while now :rolleyes:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ali nz:
I didn't know that there is a newer version than 17/09/16 ...because op wasn't been updated...it's not better to be updated?:D
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Yep, indeed it should. I'm just fixing some Android N stuff for a "nicer" release ;)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ali nz:
Oh really? That's cool...thank you for all your hard working specially for our device!:)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
need help big problem :(

Went to delete a ROM and when I rebooted from TWRP I'm stuck on the white bootup screen where you have options to reboot, bootloader, etc.

No matter what I pick it reboots and punts me back to this screen. Short of RUU'ing the device I need help. Thoughts?

HTC 10 USA S-ON

EDIT: To be more specific, this is the screen I'm stuck on no matter what...
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Sounds very weird. How about booting to TWRP and/or your internal rom?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
it won't let me no matter what I try and do...I'll donate you money if you can get this working...ugh. PM me do you have a way to personally chat with me in real time. I have to have this phone working for work tonight.

EDIT: If I pick any of those options it spits me to the HTC boot menu and then that white screen pops up. Only exception is if I pick power off well it'll power off.

With all the "hacking" done to make MultiROM work will RUU work? It's a USA model device with S-ON so no CID changes done.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
EDIT2: I can get to HTC Download mode (black screen). Should I try and flash TWRP again or a boot image? What is causing it to punt directly to that white screen on any other reboot option?

Here's the only other screen I can get to...
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
yeah, RUU will work, but can you retrace your steps and tell me what you did exactly (like a numbered list)

a

b

c

ended on that screen

Even though MultiROM is a hack, it wouldn't break the phone, so I'm just wondering if something else went haywire, and not necessarily MultiROM related.

Are you able to get to download mode?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
1.) Okay installed a 3rd ROM...everything fine.

Primary ROM is Viper 2.9, Secondary was BeanStalk, and I just installed the most recent Resurrection Remix.

All was fine. Since RR seems to be better than BeanStalk I did the following...

2.) Shutdown beanstalk and booted back into TWRP

3.) When to List ROMs

4.) Found Beanstalk

5.) Choose to delete ROM

6.) Once it finished I picked reboot system from that menu (when it's finished when you have "Back" or "reboot system" to pick)

7.) Phone rebooted and this is where I'm at. That white screen.

In the past I typically exited TWRP by picking "back" instead and going all the way out to the main menu. From there I picked Reboot but would that have really made a difference? I'm guessing maybe something screwed up with the boot.img injecting?

So I can get to download mode but that's it...otherwise it's that white screen.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
That all sounds rather normal, try reflashing TWRP (from download mode, since you are s-on, and try entering it).

Are you encrypted or decrypted?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
I'll try that now. I never messed with encryption so I believe it's encrypted by default.

EDIT Okay flashed the version I had which was "TWRP_3.0.2-6_multirom_pme_20160917-02.zip"

Looks like I'm back in TWRP. Now what should I do to avoid this cluster mess when I reboot. I'll leave phone sitting here in TWRP until you get back to me. Thanks! :)

While waiting I'm just dumping data off the internal storage just in case lol. It looks like the secondary ROM (beanstalk) is gone as I deleted it before the crash. Resurrection still looks there as does my internal ROM.

EDIT: Sent you a donation thanks for your help! I just want to know lastly what should I do now that I'm booted into TWRP what I should do before rebooting phone to make sure I'm not back to square one.

okay damnit tried rebooting and I'm back to that white screen. WTF? I can't even get back into TWRP without reflashing it via ADB.

If from TWRP I pick reboot into recovery it'll put me back into it but the second I go to reboot system I'm back to that white screen with flashing the only way back into TWRP. I cannot boot the system.

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

okay I tried reflashing TWRP again

I went into recovery a second time (reboot --> recovery)

Flashed multirom-20160917-v33a-UNOFFICIAL-pme

Reboot into TWRP again

Reboot System to see what would happen...

Still stuck. Back to white screen.

I even went to try and inject boot.img under multi-rom settings. Nada.

Only thing I have noticed is if I pick "reboot bootloader" and then "reboot recovery" I can get back into TWRP. Hopefully I gave you enough info to work with. Let me know. :(
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Have you tried re-flashing the boot.img from your Internal/primary ROM and seeing if that allows you to boot?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
how do I do that?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and flash it via fastboot or in TWRP.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
okay gave that a try with the Viper 2.6 ROM boot.img

Extracted it and flashed to boot partition. Soft brick. I'm stuck on the HTC screen "powered by android" and I don't get the red disclaimer you get with MultiROM.

EDIT: fastboot flashed MultiROM recovery I"m back in TWRP. Now what. :eek:

:(
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
It seems like you no longer have a primary ROM installed...Can you confirm that, when you mount system in TWRP, that there are folders present?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
yup it's all there...should I just reflash a new primary ROM? I'll just throw Viper 3.5 or whatever the newest version is to the primary ROM?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
My next suggestion was going to be to dirty flash your current primary and see if that changes anything.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
The base was Viper 2.6

It took their OTA to 2.7 to 2.8 to 2.9 so I don't have a dirty 2.9 to install. I can dirty install 3.5 or 2.6 (currently on 2.9)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
make a backup in twrp of your primary, just in case you need it later: boot, system (not system_image just

system

) and data.

and yeah, copy everything on internal storage to your pc or external sd, just in case.

I'll be back a bit later, then we'll take a look.

Do you get to the MultiROM boot menu at all?

EDIT: when you boot into TWRP, can you please:

[B]adb pull /tmp/recovery.log[/B]

and upload that for us
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
TWRP Backup complete. I have not gotten the MultiROM boot menu at all. I'm flashing Viper 3.5 right now as the primary ROM. It's sitting on a green HTC booting logo with no MultiROM option. It's been booting for 2-3 minutes so far. I'm assuming it'll go through. If it does I'll go back to installing MultiROM.zip in TWRP correct? Once this is done I'll adb pull the recovery.log regardless for ya.

EDIT: Android is upgrading and going through optimizing the apps...alleluia. Okay I'll pull the log once this eternity is finished.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
back in business!!!

MultiROM menu - check

VIper boots - check

Resurrection Remix boots - check

Here's that log...time for the eternal boot as I reflash Xposed to Viper and wait 30 minutes for it to recompile...ugh!!!
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
No need to pull the recovery log anymore, you should thank [MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] for his help.

My guess is either

1- your primary boot.img was no longer correct, though that is very difficult to achieve currently

2- your contexts ("permissions") got messed up, which usually ends up in rebooting to bootloader

3-

but

since you we were no longer getting the MultiROM boot menu, then your primary boot.img was [most likely] not multirom injected, so perhaps, between deleting the secondary ROM, and booting, perhaps there was something else?

I will double check the code again tomorrow, but I delete ROMs left right and centre, and it has never caused this. I will double and triple check though.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
Thanks to both of you!!! Well Viper loads fine but I jumped too soon in saying RR ROM works because I'm sitting on boot logo. I'll just delete that ROM and re-install it after I re back up the current Viper setup. I'm on multirom-20160917-v33a-UNOFFICIAL-pme if that matters? I don't think that's the most up-to-date version but I figured it works therefore no point in upgrading.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
^^ yep, that's the contexts ("permissions") issue, but unfortunately as I've discovered today, the usual way of fixing that (run restorecon) is broken at the moment... I stumbled on to it by complete accident this morning ... oops :o

so it does seem, your incident

may

have had something to do with that, not sure why primary would be affected though.

btw, all your currently installed secondaries will now do the same, until I fix the restorecon issue, but a new flash/reflash of a secondary should fix the permissions issue.

There is, the RC2 in the downloads section is fine, recommend you use that, until I have the new version up... hopefully in the coming day or two

how long have I been saying that :rolleyes::rolleyes::eek::eek:

I should stop fixing "unnecessary stuff", and push an update :cool:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
I'm just going to delete the secondary ROM and run one right now for the time being. Maybe in a day or two I'll try one of the CM roms again but off to work now so no time to mess with it. Thanks again to the both of you! :good:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Consider it a "forced" update :p
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
we can fix those, if you want to leave them as they are
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Nosferatu.:
I will. I meant to say I'm not touching mulitrom the busted 2nd rom will sit because I'm afraid if I delete it then I won't boot up into primary and I need that tonight and this weekend
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Are we android-7.x ready?

Well tbh, I don't know, i've committed enough Android 7.x changes (thanks to all the helpful people),

without having Android 7.x

But the app looks goods :)

I'm learning Java atm, yay

yeah, i know, i already got rid of "Internal Storage" for the primary
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
I'll be damned if I do, and I'll be damned if if I don't.

A . (point) to be made.

This post is most likely viewed upon negatively, not only by the community but especially by the person I mean it for.

Best wishes, and Good Luck​
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] rav101:
Hope all is okay Buddy,

Just petting you know that your work is appreciated in this little corner of the interweb!!!
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
All is fine thanks. I was just "thinking" out loud... It's sometimes funny, how people "interact", but I just felt the need to wish someone well, even if this not the place for it.

On the MultiROM front, the app is giving me trouble with spaces in the ROMs name, so no update yet again :crying::eek:

I should just push updates, whenever I compile one, but since, I like stuff to be more or less complete, and I haven't heard any complaints, I guess I can take my time at testing :)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
So got rid of the "i love spaces even at the end " problem (and a few other things), but bugs just keep creeping up :crying:

And I'm not even sure if it's ROM related or not, because the "behaviour" is completely unexpected :mad:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] codeglitch:
there are no bugs! only new features! :D
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Nope, those are bugs... features are the nice stuff ;)

(and I wouldn't even know why only CM14... granted they are weird builds on my M8 which I can easily use as a test device), is doing strange stuff.... a mounted partition, which is mounted, but is not mounted... woot :eek::eek:
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] codeglitch:
Maybe it's some conflict specific to android 7.0?

I don't do this kind of coding, but I've learned to take things easy, sometimes adding new stuff screws what we did before and we have to trace back, sooo it's not a bug just unlisted features which might get changed later! :D
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Can't say, but Xenon is 7.1 and works fine, the other CM14.0 is 7.0 and works fine (well from an mrom perspective)

That particular CM14.0 build just wants to do funny stuff [emoji6]

How did you get cm13 to boot up on secondary. My secondary doesn't boot at all. Im running viper on primary
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=69243596&postcount=202

How about you share some information, like

which version you're running

which ROM(s) dont work (name, version, link)

the logs, depending on where you get

recovery.log (for failed installation)

multirom-klogs (for failed boots)

or even both if you prefer

a detailed but concise description of the issue

things like that ;)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
I installed multirom last night. Im running viper as my primary which works fine. As my secondary i tried cm13 but it will not boot, just restarts the phone and then the primary will boot up.

I then flashed leedroid on the secondary and hit the restorcon option and that booted just fine but for some reason i cant boot cm

Also i have never flashed a different kernel on any rom ive installed.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Link to the rom?

And btw, restorecon doesn't actually work in any of the currently existing / recently built (in omni 6.0) MultiROM TWRP versions.

Guess I'll need to push the update. I'll upload my "current" stuff tomorrow, then you guys can take a look and let me know if there are any problems.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:

[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
I'm using those exact CM builds as secondaries with no issues.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
its not making any sense to me. i can install leedroid as a secondary but when i put a cm build on i try and boot and the phone just resets and goes back to booting the primary unless i hit cancel. can this issue have anything to do with the firmware on my device?

i have the unlocked version on the verizon network, currently running viper one.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ali nz:
Are you on the latest firmware?

I mean which version of viper are you using?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
firmware - 1.53.617.5

viper - 3.2.0
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ali nz:
Flash the latest firmware and you'll be good to go
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
thanks. i just downloaded 1.80.617.1

when i flash this hopefully i can boot cm13 on secondary rom.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ali nz:
Please tell me if it worked or not
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
That's not the latest firmware.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
Do you have a link to the latest? Thats the newest firmware i found to download
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
I don't. But looking at the latest in the firmware thread should help you find what you're looking for.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
thank you for your help. i have downloaded 191 firmware. the only question i have is can i go from my current firmware to the latest or do i have to flash the firmware in between mine and the lastest first?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Still not the latest firmware...and that last question depends on where you got the firmware. I'd check the OP of the firmware thread to know for sure.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
updated to the lastest firmware and cm will still not boot up on secondary rom.

at this point i dont know what else i could do to get it to boot.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
upload logs

recovery.log after flashing the ROM in question

multirom-klogs folder (has to be enabled in TWRP->MultiROM->Settings), then try to boot said ROM 2 times, and upload logs

I'll add that to the FAQs later, but the reason for the kernel logging feature is for situations like this.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
thank you. finally booted up CM as secondary but now i have another issue -- after updating the firmware now on my primary which is VIPER im getting an error of "cellular network not available" when making a call or sending a text, LTE works though.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] MrRob0t:
I read that CM latest works on vzw firmware.

I have Viper as internal ROM, with 2 other Sense ROMs as secondary.

I flashed CM like any other ROM I installed previously.

I was stuck on constant rebooting of the boot animation.

Am I installing the ROM correctly, or am I missing a step?

Thank you so very much for all u do.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] drocny87:
i was able to boot CM on secondary, i flashed RC2 build of multirom and updated my firmware.

i have a weird issue now....data works on my primary but calls and texts do not. i cant test CM because its reading that i dont have a SIM card in my phone.

i already tested to make sure my SIM works and is still active with an old phone.
