After flashing the su zip jdog posted I went through both setups and on the 2.2 one there wasn't a gscript in the app drawer. I downloaded gscript lite and added the scripts and booted back to 2.1. So far all seems well. Great work guys, this is awesome. Now I can't wait to start looking into the debian build. All of the sudden there is so much fun to be had here, lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Hmmm, gscripts should be there... it was added to data... thanks for the heads up though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
booting to sd now
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
used terminal emulator and ran ls data/app and the only one I saw was gscript lite. Just for sh!+$ and giggles I ran ls system/app and nothing there. Of course, why would it be.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
This is great, I only have one problem. Which one to run?
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
lmao, well that's why we created, "DualRom" :D you can go back and forth as you like... ain't that special? lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
all seems to be working good now

gscripts was not in 2.2 app folder

downloaded lite and it worked great
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Ok, thank you for the feedback. We'll get that straightened out asap, sorry for any inconvenience it caused.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
not a problem

on the 2.2 froshedyo

does jit need to stay on?????
[Droid Eris Android Development] rotarydial:
Whoa. So professional. Where AM I? ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Team ADX:
Excuse me sir, do I know you? lol ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] Team ADX:
No, you can turn it off, I leave it on by default :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
It's safe to say, 2.2 is pretty snappy on the sdcard :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
Got 2.1 to start up but when i used gscript to boot 2.2 i got stuck in a bootloop. i know it was supposed to take a while but i fell asleep with it booting and woke up 6 hours later with it still in the loop. trying again now.

and is it plausible with the framework you have provided to switch out the stock roms for "dual rom" with any other eris roms? not that i think there is anything wrong with these roms, this whole thing is really impressive, but i would like to have a quick way to switch back and forth between 2.2 sense and 2.2CM
[Droid Eris Android Development] DS36:
bet you guys think your so smart

with your fancy-shamancy dual boot ROM :p

but seriously this is brilliant
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Brilliant is right. I set this up last night and I'm probably going to kill my phone with all the switching back and forth, lol.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ahjee:
Holy sh/t! That's wild guys. Keep up the crazy work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Did you wipe before flashing? this would cause a bootloop going to the 2.2 rom if you did not wipe. The roms are modified to be able to boot back and forth so you can't really just change the roms without modifications. The plan is to add in 2.2 Sense but we will wait till it's more complete.
[Droid Eris Android Development] strongergravity:
Downloading now. I hope I remember to take the kids trick or treating tonight! This looks beautiful!
[Droid Eris Android Development] rotarydial:
I think this may actually have fixed my trackball!:eek:
[Droid Eris Android Development] en_mih:
hy i have a qeustion :) this will work in htc desire??
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
This rom will not work because it has eris roms in it. The concept will work though. Booting from sd has been done on several android phones.
[Droid Eris Android Development] jdog94:
this works well

i was kinda laggy for me at times

but over all it was quick

remember to wipe before flashing
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
yeah i wiped and tried the whole process again, no luck though
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
What part are you stuck at?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
Make sure you flash the su zip on the bottom of the op and when you get the 2.2 rom running you will need to download gscript lite from the market.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
There will most likely be an update later today with all these fixes applied, just a heads-up.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
BRILLIANT! lol, we are so smart, we are so smart, s-m-r-t, I mean, s-m-a-r-t ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
After flashing 2.1 sense it boots fine, then I flashed the Su fix and used the gscript. When 2.2 starts booting it gets stuck in the loop.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
1 question tyler... did you properly partition your sdcard before you flashed? Make sure you did all the steps to correctly partition.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Can you do this for me?

reboot into recovery and do this in adb...

adb shell

parted dev/block/mmcblk0

print

Then post your results in here please.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:

ah I been busy working on my debian that I just saw this. I am so disapointed now I have to reformat my sdcard to work for this and try to save and move all debian files omg its gonna be a long day
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
That looks correct tyler, I'm sorry you're having trouble. The only thing I can suggest is start all over with partitioning, fullwipe, download the new v1.1 we posted and flash again... sorry for the inconvenience :o

lol, it's fun stuff though and you know it ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
no problem i appreciate the help. im redoing the entire process now using 1.1 and am about to attempt booting 2.2, ill let you know what happens
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Ok, thanks, and good luck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tyler1524:
success! im not sure if i did anything different this time but everything is running smooth now and i am able to switch between roms flawlessly! great work

[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
im having problems with this working right

i plug in my phone, reboot into recovery

and copy/paste this into my command prompt, says not recognized?
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Sorry you're having trouble retro... do you have adb installed correctly?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
i have SDK installed and updated correctly

im still new to the whole rooted thing, i have messed around with android kitchen with a virtual machine, and have loaded tens of custom roms. i have never partitioned before.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sungal:
how long?

around how long does this take to flash? I've been on the writing BOOT... for a good 10-15 minutes now, is this normal? If not what should my next move be? I'm not sure if it rebooted once or not, wasn't sitting here...:confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
can you do adb shell? are you using amon's recovery?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
adb shell does nothing

i have clockworkmod recovery 2.5.0.1
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
no once it says writing boot is should be done...it doesn't say install complet at the end but your options will pop back up to reboot phone, flash zip, etc... when you see those it is done installing and you can go ahead and reboot.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
if adb shell does not work then you do not have it set up correctly on your pc. Make sure it is in your path. There are a few good tutorials on getting adb to work. I think that clockwork recovery should have parted program in it to partition sd cards so you should be ok once you get adb shell to work. Once you type adb shell your prompt should change to a # sign so you will know your are in the phone on root. If you are familiar with partitioning then you can use any program you want to partition the sd card. Just make sure you have the partitions in this order

1. fat32 3.5gb (can be adjusted to your needs. This partition will be used by the 2.1 rom and by recovery)

2. ext2 250mb (this will be the system partition for the sd rom)

3. ext2 350mb (this will be the data partition used by the sd rom. You can make it bigger or smaller depending on the number of apps you use. Make it no smaller then 200mb)

4. extended partitions made up of the rest of the card. (this is needed because you can only make 4 primary partitions and we need 5 so we make an extended partition that will allow us to make 2 more partitoins inside of the extended partition)

5. ext2 50mb (this is the cache partition for the sd rom)

6 fat32 use the rest of the card space available(this will be used by the sd rom which is the 2.2 rom. You can make first partition larger and this one smaller or vice versa depending on which rom you may need more space for.)

as long as the card is set up like this the rom's will work fine.
[Droid Eris Android Development] sungal:
yay

THANK YOU :) I was waiting for the install complete and wasn't sure if I should re-boot or not, so I played it safe and waited for one of you awseome guys to answer ;)

I got 2.1 set up and did the gscript and am booting into the 2.2 rom now. This is amazing!! Thanks for all your hard work and these kick ass roms! :)You guys are awesome!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
Well thanks for the kind words....sorry about the wait there....I guess I should edit the script to say when it's done lol....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
hmm i doubt the actual partitioning part of this will be that hard

i have SDK installed, but it cant find my phone, i tried 2 different guides and even tried droid explorer, still cant find my device, usb drivers dont seem to work at all. USB debugging is enabled fyi
[Droid Eris Android Development] rotarydial:
Question: If I flash shed's maskclock will it go to the 2.1 or 2.2 or both? Should I pull the apk and push it to the 2.2 system/app?:confused:

Do I get put in the dunce cap for asking?:o

Thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] sungal:
or add to the first post that it won't tell you when it's done... lol my phone got bricked a few months back so I'm extra careful lately ;)

I'm too tired to mess around anymore tonight but I haven't ran across any issues so far. :) I had the gscript lite in both roms and didn't have any su issues for anything either. In the 2.2 rom my market was trying to d/l my apps but nothing actually downloaded. That's no big deal for me and it's probably google. lol

I'll play with it tomorrow and post any findings and/or feedback. Thanks again! :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] sungal:
I don't know if this will help but I couldn't get those damn usb drivers installed for anything either. I read somewhere to install pdanet, which I did and that is how I finally got the drivers installed and was able to use adb. Maybe it will work for you too...I'm not sure why it would never work how everyone said it would, I'm just glad I finally got it working. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] lifyre:
First this is awesome. Dual Boot is a sweet option to have. Thank you so much for all the work you guys have done. I can't wait to see how this turns out once you guys get it polished to a shine.

Is it possible to change the roms that it uses or are there modifications made inside the individual roms that make them work?
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
I would be doing this tonight if it wasn't so late and I didn't have to work tomorrow. I can't wait to try it out!!! Thanks to everyone that made this possible!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
okay i got the drivers now finally and got SDK fully running and updated (only had to forum troll for an hour or so) and big thanks to Sungal for the drivers even tho i got em from somewhere else :P guess i gotta stop buy and check what people post every once and a while

but now i got a new problem this is what i get when i try and type in the partitioning info you give me:

i am in recovery and this info is from command prompt

Are you in RECOVERY? Then if rm 1 rm 2, rm 3, rm 4 dont show up maybe should try reformat sdcard then reboot to recovery again and try

adb shell

parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
Can't wait To hide all the dirty things on one rom and other my clean things on another, its like a ying, yang, or light and dark!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
This is a great question actually. Any zip updates for apps and such will only affect the rom on the phone because that is how they are set up. If you are booted into the sd rom then you can install stuff through adb with the normal procedures so that would be how you have to do it for now.

There have been modifications to the roms themselves. You wouldn't be able to just switch the roms right now.

Your recovery does not appear to have parted installed. It comes in amons recovery. You can either flash amon's recovery or use another program such as gparted to partition your card. I can't guaruntee that it will install correctly through clockwork recovery as it has not been tested.
[Droid Eris Android Development] knipp21:
Yeah this needs to be running all of tazz 's roms. :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Like Conap pointed out, it doesn't look like clockwork recovery has parted. It also doesn't look like you have adb in you environment PATH which is why adb isn't recognized as a command. Try what conap suggested and you should be in business after that. We're here to help, so post back if you get stuck again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
Now we need to get debian to mount all the 2.2 roms ext2 features or create new and other patitions for debian to be fully loaded in the second rom or ubuntu!
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Yeah, mjgdroid started the celbdian thread lol

I think Busphan thought you wanted to run it on this only, but since you mess with debian you obviously want it... just a little crossed wires here, no biggie.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
Ok workshed I would need to have the update mount the last ext2? the first partition on the extended partion?
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
The 2.2 rom is on the last partition of the sdcard, last ext2 par, correct.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
But you might want to pm conap to make sure I'm correct. There is a system folder on the 2nd partition and I can't remember off hand if thats for the 2.2 rom... I believe it is but don't quote me.
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
Here's what Conap posted earlier in this thread.

....look at me contributing to development. :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
just needed you to clean it up for me to read :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
lol, well that's what it's all about, thanks josh! I've been busy trying to get another rom out for the ladies ;)

2. ext2 250mb (this will be the system partition for the sd rom)

Ok, so the 2nd partition is where system is for the sdcard for sure. So basically we'll just need to edit the update-script to mount that, then it should be usual update-script code from there.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
2nd partition is the system partition. That is where we will want to push things. Unless its an app we will want it to go in data on the third partition. It's more complicated with the kernels as there are no kernels running on the sd card. The boot.img stays on the phone and is just changed to boot the rom you choose. I have updated the needed files to have cfsv7 and i will try to get a script done tonight to push the boot.img's to the correct places.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
added zip to flash to upgrade to cfsv7 for those that want to play with debian. Link in op and i will add it here. Just flash in recovery but do NOT wipe.

Info

first of all i want to thank everyone (Conap, Sungal, and Workshed) for there contribution to getting this amazing rom to work for me

second of all i got it to work but my method was a bit different :P mainly since i honestly had no idea what i was doing.

--------------------

if you dont know what SDK or ADB is, then your going to have to do it this way.

please read this forum topic on how to install SDK and ADB:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=532719

--------------------

ADB for me didnt work unless i used this command before i started the command list that was posted in the install instructions by workshed

cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools

then run adb shell and the other scripts

--------------------

alot of people are having trouble with the right drivers for there HTC droid eris. thanks to Sungal. The file for amazing drivers is right here, installed the program, installs the drivers then uninstalls itself. a lot better then using HTC Sync

http://www.junefabrics.com/android/

--------------------

If you have the Clockworkmod Recovery and not the RA recovery you will need to install Rom Manager (free on the android market) and theres an option to flash RA recovery (this recovery lets you do the partitions right)

--------------------

im not trying to rain on Worksheds parade but other then these small problems this rom and idea is amazing.

2.2 is super fast, and the 2.1 sense is awesome for sense lovers
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
right, you wouldn't have to cd into /tools if you put adb in your system PATH... but you can do it that way too if you'd like, it just becomes a pain if you're pushing things to your phone alot, when you have adb in your environment PATH you can be in any folder and do adb cmds... that's what I was talking about lol

Anyways, we're happy to see you've got it installed... there is no rain here... these things you posted are great for beginners, thank you and enjoy.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
i put the adb in the path, once my phone works ill try it..see below

hmm one last thing before i leave you guys alone haha, your prolly sick of me already

seems i was in 2.2 did the boot to phone, and now its stuck at the android on skateboard screen? been like that for 5 mins or so...
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
did you successfully boot 2.1 before? If it's still stuck you can boot back into amons and flash the zip to BootToRom1 or BootToRom2. Hopefully that will get you unstuck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
I am sorry to be bear of bad news, but this also happend to me. I just reflashed the dual boot rom, no wipe, and I was back in, but it did happen to me the first time I rebooted from 2.2

It was a reboot not first boot... maybe that helps
[Droid Eris Android Development] Team ADX:
Zips have been added to op to wipe dalvik-cache and data to the op. Just flash them in recovery. Wipe data and dalvik for the phone rom like normal. The scripts are only needed if you want to wipe the sd rom.
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
I just re-partioned my sd card and I'm waiting on my files to transfer back. I can't wait to flash this on my phone!

So while I'm waiting for it to copy again I thought I'd drop this for the Windows users out there that want to access the 2nd Fat32 partition via Windows. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811548&page=4. View post # 34 of Conap's Darktremor how-to. It's a how-to I stumbled across that shows you how to make a driver that will trick your computer into thinking your sd card (in your phone with usb activated) is a disk drive so you can access both Fat32 partitions (the one the 2.1 rom/recovery uses and the one the 2.2 sd card rom uses).

....copying complete. Just wiped and now I'm waiting on it to flash!
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
We already have scripts added to the roms that will unmount and mount in windows.
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
Really?? Both Fat32's?? HELL YEA!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
The script will mount the last fat32 partition. You can still mount the first fat32 partition the normal way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] joshw0000:
Is there anything this rom can't do? You guys really thought of everything. This is going to be hard to top.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Retrogress:
got it working now, seems to have a few problems with the gscript going from rom to rom when you first install and set everything up but thanks to the .zips V1.1 installs you can just boot it

more good news i hit 621 in Quadrant using the froshedyo ROM

and still getting the CPU clock up, have it at 749 Mhz stable,

should get 800 up soon and will retest.

how do i take a screenshot of a quadrant benchmark?

testing the 2.1 sense one, my guess its around 400 or so?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Conap:
still should be a few more things to come...hopefully will have a way to make a backup soon.

good to hear...if you continue having trouble maybe try flashing the cfsv7 for dual rom zip in first thread. The gscripts have been booting back and forth for me several times so not sure why it's getting stuck. If you think you can get me a logcat if it doesn't boot again it would be helpfull. To get a pick open a termianl/command prompt and type ddms...assuming you have the sdk/adb set up right then this will bring up a program that will detect your phone and will allow you to do screenshots and logcats. The options are not too hard to find. You do have to click on your phone in the list(it will say HTC something) then you can go through the options at the top to find what you want to do....
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
To run debian do you type the command while booted in 2.2?
