Ensure recommended step by yoAeroA00; format mentioned 3 partitions through Wipe option in Recovery (ext4 fs I used). After formatting them, System, Data and Cache will be automatically mounted or you can mount yourself. It worked for me.

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 PM ----------

This works for secondary OS; means we can get as much bigger data.img file as we want. But my question was different. What if we want to expand userdata.img of internal (primary) OS? Like we use Link2SD to share (actually link) some memory from sd card creating 2nd partition on it.

So my question is that, instead of creating 2nd partition on sd card, may we just create a data.img file (placed on sd card) and deceive Link2SD to consider this image file as 2nd partition?

I don't know if I've been able to clarify my point or not :laugh:

First of all many thanks [MENTION=6787237]yoAeroA00[/MENTION] for your efforts. Your work is giving a new life to our device :)

Following your steps, I successfully tested CM11 & CM12.1 on secondary slot. A few issues I faced:

EFIDroid Manager wasn't detecting device name on CM11 AngSanley/ara. Editing build.prop solved the issue.

Formatting partitions manually before flashing ROM was necessary. It didn't work otherwise.

I got no network signals after booting into secondary OS. Also, Wi-Fi wasn't switched on. Finally I replaced firmware.img of secondary OS (which was automatically created by EFIDroid Manager while creating new OS) with stock firmware.img (I already had). It resolved the problem.

While booting to secondary OS, sometimes error come:

Previous boot failed.

watchdog timeout

I used my sd card as location to save my newly created ROM Slot. Now, after booting into secondary OS, sd card isn't mounted. Is there a way to access memory card or it works this way?

Also, as an advice for those who don't know, using sd card to save secondary ROM slots needs really high speed memory card. Even on Class-10 and UHS-1, ROM is slower.

Secondary OS uses my phone's internal memory (phone_mmc/data/media/0/) for storing files. It should use its own media i.e. (sd_card/multiboot/2nd_OS/data.img/media/0/) for storing apps data. Isn't it? Primary and secondary OS shouldn't share same memory. It can harm apps and user data.

Due to last 2 points, if we try to use DIM or DSC for secondary OS, no space is available to apps for saving data. Therefore, apps don't work.

It seems pointless to use secondary OS if it can't save it's user data on sd card. We have already short space on internal mmc.
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
can you share your firmware.img? I also dumped my own but still have no RIL and Radio functions
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
You can find zipped file here containing stock modem.img. Rename it to firmware.img and replace as discussed in my post.

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------

Also add this caution in instructions :D : DO NOT WIPE INTERNAL MEMORY EVEN ACCIDENTALLY & DO NOT DELETE UEFIESP FOLDER (containing partition_boot.img and partition_recovery.img) created by EFIDroid manager on internal memory media. Otherwise you won't be able to boot into internal OS; will have to flash recovery.img and/or boot.img via fastboot to boot into system.
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
6. Secondary OS uses my phone's internal memory (phone_mmc/data/media/0/) for storing files. It should use its own media i.e. (sd_card/multiboot/2nd_OS/data.img/media/0/) for storing apps data. Isn't it?

7. Due to 5 & 6, if we use DIM or DSC for secondary OS, no space is available to apps for saving data. Therefore, apps don't work.

It seems pointless to use secondary OS if it can't save it's user data on sd card. We have already short space on internal mmc.“

why need dsc if we can make larger partition,

by the way when install cm11 it always boot failed wtchdog timeout, how to get rid off this
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
I tried to use DSC only because:

You didn't get my point I think. What's the purpose of making larger partition if OS doesn't store data there?

For me, it doesn't happen always and I don't know the reason or it's remedy. Repeat the exact steps. Hope that will solve the issue.
[X2 Android Development] frnsl3:
but there's internal storage and sdcard ?

just now like disaster just delete all file in internal storage on my primary device and now it stuck on efi :(

[MENTION=6787237]yoAeroA00[/MENTION] Can you build TWRP 3.1.0.0 for Nokia X2?

And can you build a pecial version of EfiDroid, which added custom partition to partition list and copy default kernel reovery images on tempfs (not data/media/0/UEFIESP folder) I can write an android app for this like Efidroid Manager. You should only modify these 2 things.
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Yes, tell me..
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Well, your idea is good but can you clarify it more...
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
on efidroid's source;

1) add custom partition to list like data,system,boot,cache,firmware. custom partition is Nokia X2 specific partition. With this modificiation, we can use multiple stock and stock based roms with efidroid. At the moment, this is impossible:(

2) efidroid stores default roms kernel and recovery on /data/media/0/UEFIESP/ folder which is on Internal Memory of Nokia X2. Can you edit this path to /multiboot/UEFIESP?
[X2 Android Development] j€nish:
Imei delete after how you start ril

[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:

[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
I tried, but nothing changed. Still defaul rom's kernel and recovery images on /data/media/0/UEFIESP/ folder.
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
OK, just wait today I had requested [MENTION=3530648]m11kkaa[/MENTION] to update the same...
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
waiting...

what is your github?
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Well, /multiboot/UEFIESP folder will be a tmpfs so that don't make any sense...
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Just type my name after github.com;)
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
this change isnt enough: https://github.com/yoAeroA00/device/blob/nokia/ara/fstab.multiboot

you should modify /data/media/0/UEFIESP/ to /multiboot/UEFIESP/ which isnt there.
[X2 Android Development] m11kkaa:
what are you trying to archive? there's no partition called "multiboot".
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
Is it should be partition?

I found a vulnerability, users can rename UEFIESP folder and semi bircik their devices. I think moving kernel and recovery images from internal memory, more safer way.
[X2 Android Development] m11kkaa:
why should it? I doubt that ANY device has a partition called multiboot. just check using fdisk or parted.

In case you're referring to the /multiboot directory - that's just a temporary directory inside your system RAM.
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
efidroid cant boot image files when they are on tempfs?
[X2 Android Development] m11kkaa:
what do you mean by that? RAM gets cleared on each reboot - not the best location for persistently storing data.
[X2 Android Development] symbuzzer:
lets talk on slack this again...
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Sorry! [MENTION=5143175]symbuzzer[/MENTION] but I can't understand what you want to clarify about bug....???? Please! point me if I am wrong..
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
Let me try to explain what [MENTION=5143175]symbuzzer[/MENTION] wants to say. His point is valid.

When we install EFIDroid, there is a folder created /data/media/0/UEFIESP/ which contains two files: partition_boot.img and partition_recovery.img. These files must be Kernel and Recovery of Internal OS. Isn't it?

Now, if we wipe internal memory or accidentally delete/rename this UEFIESP folder, we won't be able to boot into Internal OS. So, is there a way to move this UEFIESP folder to directory named multiboot where OS are saved (e.g. /storage/sdcard1/multiboot/UEFIESP/) so that there is less chance of accidently deleting these files?

Also please answer my query. I'm repeating same post again and again.
[X2 Android Development] m11kkaa:
why would there be less chace of deleting if it's called multiboot instead of UEFIESP?

Also, he should've explained the problem instead of making pointless/impossible feature requests.

Wiping internal storage does not delete the UEFIESP(but it would delete all rom's).

I know about the bug that non-root users can delete the UEFIESP directory, but that will just be fixed instead of moving or renaming it(which would change nothing).
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:

Stock ROM nokia/rm-1013 problem

Hi!

My Nokia X2 using stock ROM with CM11 sd-ext. And now I'm interested to this EFIDroid idea.

But, how to fix this?

[IMG="nokia/rm-1013 problem"]https://s25.postimg.org/towfzyrdb/Screenshot_2017-06-02-18-18-18.png[/IMG]

I've already checked the stock build.prop and there is no value "rm-1013".
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
Check this
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
No need to edit build.prop for stock ROM I will ask M11kkaa for updating same on server..
[X2 Android Development] gr39o:
Right. Thanks.

But I've figured it out by editing the build.prop :D

I learned from CM11 build.prop then add these values to stock build.prop

ro.product.model=ara
ro.product.device=ara

Now EFIDroid is working fine on stock ROM.

But, there are new problems :

Both of SIMs are offline every stock ROM (internal) boot up, and only SIM1 that can be activated.

[IMG="SIM offline"]https://s25.postimg.org/l4r088xzj/Screenshot_2017-06-05-18-18-17.png[/IMG]

[IMG="SIM1 online, SIM2 no SIM"]https://s25.postimg.org/3sqnmt4i7/Screenshot_2017-06-05-18-18-19.png[/IMG]

Sadly, it says no SIM in SIM2 even though there is a SIM inserted in SIM2 slot.

Can't do power-off mode while charging battery. EFIDroid boot menu always shows up.
[X2 Android Development] j€nish:
Your bad luck start

Buy new device

Now you can't start ril without atf box or miracle box

So
[X2 Android Development] gr39o:
I haven't added the secondary ROM yet from EFIDroid Manager.

I'm still using stock ROM and CM11 sd-ext, with EFIDroid installed.

I use TWRP to switch between stock ROM and CM11 sd-ext by installing their boot.img

The funny thing is both of SIMs are online in CM11, and of course, SIM2 is detected.
[X2 Android Development] j€nish:
Sim detected but signal never receiving
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
I have installed and uninstalled EFIDroid multiple times, used different ROMs on both slots. I never faced sim offline issue, neither of signals
[X2 Android Development] gr39o:
Maybe yes.

But Dual SIM setting page (on stock ROM) says No SIM in SIM2, like my screenshots before.

Even stock ROM?

I faced SIM offline issue and "no SIM2" only on stock ROM.
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
No. Not Stock ROM. I tried others like CM and FiUI etc
[X2 Android Development] gr39o:
Ah, you should try EFIDroid on stock ROM to make sure. :D

I think the SIM offline issue happened because EFIDroid is not designed for stock ROM. Am I right?
[X2 Android Development] mirfatif:
I'll try Stock ROM too
[X2 Android Development] yoAeroA00:
Hmm... A bit strange... but I don't think efidroid is responsible for that. May be some other factors are responsible for it.. like custom/persist partition not loaded successfully.. Please! try checking in root if the custom/persist partition is loaded or not:: ;)

Main reason for staying with Mi is because of the "freedom" to do what you please with device you have paid for. Now its no longer an attraction.

Hey guys, today morning, I found my phone messed up out of nowhere. Whatever be the cause, It was not showing anything except the Marshmallow loading screen. I tried to fix it by going into recovery mode, things which I did :

Recovery mode : volume up + power

Navigating to Recovery mode (using volume up) then selecting it (using volume down)

It redirected me to the Android with red error image

Now, pressed volume up + power -> resulted in showing the menu

navigated in the menu and selected fatory reset

It started its clean up but after sometime some error occured

I restarted the phone and started from beginning once again but this time there is no redirection as specified in step 3

It just turns off the phone, and also normal boot isn't working.

I'm stuck, please help.

Any further information needed please ask.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrCryos:
You need to make sure its not app, rom, kernel, related, try booting in safe mode to see if problems persits if no then is app related.

If you wipe and reinstal rom and problem persist then this might be help full

Before anything else i sugest you look for zenfone 2 dissambly vids so you get to know what you are going to be doing, it is easy.

Before telling you the solution let me explain my phone symptoms:

1) Ghost touchs, be aware if you have selected show cursor coordinstes or show touch, much of the times this ghost touch doesnt appear.

2) Phone screen starts turning on and off by itself. This is very annoying I tried turning off doble touch to wake but this didnt help.

So what is the solution?

You need to open the back of the phone unscrew everything and then in the charging usb port you need to make sure that the back part of this pice doesnt make contact with the metal back plate. What I did is to use an electrical pice of tape that cut. And simple as that my phone working normal again.

Remeber to screw everything tight as possible.

Pd: i didnt took any pics but im show what part of the phone im referring

Hope this helps have a great day

I have a SM-T116NQ tablet which is sold without phone support. The problem is:

- Its' modem firmware has no phone support

- Its' stock rom has no phone application

So, even if I use a ROM with phone application, because modem firmware has no phone support, it'll not be able to make calls. The call is dropped immediately when you press call button. So, I need modem firmware which can make calls... I think I'll need Odin to burn the modem firmware..
