Dualboot for Nexus 10
I DO NOT OWN THIS DEVICE
thanks to @add12364 for testing
This is a Mod which allows you to switching between any Rom and any AOSP based rom.
Code:
System.out.println("
Your warranty is now void
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you
Submitting bug reports on nightly builds is the leading
cause of male impotence.
");
Before you install this, please read the whole post!
Your first rom can be any Rom and second rom is any AOSP rom.
The second rom is installed on the /cache partition.
/data and /cache folder are in /data/media/.secondrom
This Mod switchs between two kernels.
The App will grab the kernel from your first rom, AOSP will use my ramdisk modified Kernel.
The RomSwitcher App will download the all needed files for you.
They will be in /sdcard/romswitcher
Sources:
https://github.com/RomSwitchers/RomSwitcher-manta
https://github.com/RomSwitchers/RomSwitcher
How to install?
You can use every AOSP rom as second rom
Download any AOSP rom. Extract it and open META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
Look for this line (some roms have two of them)
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/system", "/system");
and replace it with
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/[B]cache[/B]", "/system");
then delete these lines
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
and
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/boot");
You will need Gapps
Get it here http://goo.im/gapps/
Extract it and open updater-script
and replace
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
with
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/cache", "/system");
Zip your rom and gapps.
If you have troubles with editing the updater script, you can use my modified Paranoid Android Rom
http://d-h.st/qjO
Flash both in recovery. (first rom then gapps)
DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
Reboot your phone and if you did all correct. You should boot into your current rom.
Now download and install my app
https://github.com/RomSwitchers/Downloadlinks/raw/master/RomSwitcher/RomSwitcher.apk
Open RomSwitcher and follow the instructions. (You need Root and BusyBox to use the App)

There's a bit of instability. I was wondering how I could uninstall the second ROM for now. I will come back to dual booting but my tablet is running out of space and I want to wipe the second ROM to get space.

If you ever need N10 testing just send me a message! This MOD is my favorite.
When you go through the process of modifying the updater scripts and then flashing the modified zips, will that become the 2nd rom and NOT overwrite the rom you already have installed? Just making sure I known what's happening before I do this. Thanks!

That to me would be the biggest reason to use this mod.

Of course not, that's not what I was asking.
Ubuntu touch is based on cm so in theory your mod might allow it to boot as the secondary rom.

Please, cut the guy a break, the instructions in the OP aren't exactly what I'd call 'clear.' The instructions clearly state that the "default kernel for the first ROM is CM kernel." Sure sounds to me like this erases/alters the current ROM, or else how would the CM kernel get on my device, currently running Trinity? It also says that we can use any kernel we want, well the kernel I want is already installed, again, does it alter the current ROM or not? If not, where does the CM kernel come into play on the random AOSP ROM that I elect to flash as the second ROM? Then in the second post there is no indication of which AOSP ROM is being changed. If I just follow those instructions I wipe both ROMs, unless we redo the script edit before the flash, which is not stated there. Finally, how would I change just the first ROM? I can't wipe cache, as that would blow away the second ROM. Do I have to reinstall both?
As for Ubuntu, I was even unaware that UT lacks the Dalvik VM. A simple explanation would have sufficed.
I immensely respect both you and what you are doing, for both the device and the community as a whole, and I am not trying to be hostile or to be an ass, so please don't take offense to this. Just please don't go jumping down people throats, especially over a procedure that is deeply removed from the realm of everyday protocol, even for people on XDA.

To the OP below is the reason I was CURIOUS about the possibility of Ubuntu touch working with this method. I never demanded that it work with android apps. I know that it would not.
Canonical on Ubuntu wiki said:
How is Ubuntu Touch connected to Android?
The independent open source project CyanogenMod which is based on Android and tries to improve and extend the existing Android Basis has been taken by the developers as a kind of underlaying basis for Ubuntu Touch. The kernel and a few low level drivers for network, video, audio and some other hardware features are taken, all the higher level parts have been taken out. On top of this the whole Ubuntu is started in an chroot environment.

This is what does work on UT.
Canonical on Ubuntu wiki said:
Which applications do run on Ubuntu Touch?
Ubuntu Touch is primarily designed to support web apps, and native apps programmed in qml and javascript or C++. As it is a real linux, of course all non graphical applications run equally as on any other linux system. You can ssh to Ubuntu Touch and run any console based application.
X11 is not supported (so far) so all GUI standard applications will not run.

Can I develop programs directly on Ubuntu Touch?
Ubuntu Touch is a real linux, of course you can install a c compiler and all the rest of the essential-build system and can develop on the mobile devices like on any other linux.

Maybe now you will understand why I was so interested in your project. The development possibilities are enormous.
Next time think before you tear into people.
Ubuntu touch works with that method on my gnexus. But have to modify the whole ramdisk to make switching working and I am really too lazy to do it for a device which I don't own. Be happy that I am supporting this device. I really didn't want to support the nexus 10.

Reporting Bugs
Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
Please read the thread for known issues before reporting.
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow.

How To Partition Your SD Card For Free Internal Storage (CWM)
Via ClockWorkMod Recovery :
Things required:
Clock Work Mod Recovery (Except latest HumberOS Kernel)
Working SD card inserted into phone.
Link2Sd (Link)
Note : Backup your Sdcard before do this steps because it will format your all data on Sdcard
After getting the above things ready, proceed with the given steps :
Boot into CWM
Scroll down to advance options (second last option).
In Advance Menu go to Partition SD Card (If you use HumberOS kernel, there is no option for Partition SD CARD)
Select EXT and swap partition size according to your needs and overall size of the SD card.
Wait till the process completes. You will get a success message if things are done.
After rebooting, download Link2sd on Play Store (Link above)
open link2sd
then select the file system of your sdcard's second partition (ext3)
reboot your tablet
then open link2sd again menu->storage info
Via PC
Simplest way is to use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" from http://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html
This tool is compatible with Windows 2000/XP/Vista & Windows 7
requirements: USB SD Card reader.
pull SD card from phone, insert into USB SD Card reader,you can do it with your usb cable mount Sd-crad. Windows should report new drive and content of the drive should be visible.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 1: delete old partitions on SD card
Note:
this partition manager QUEUES the operations. So nothing is deleted and changed UNTIL you click "APPLY" and then confirm by clicking "OK".
WARNING!
Make sure you are deleting partition on SD card! (not your hard drive for example)
This step deletes everything on SD card, so backup files first!
Dont be afraid, just read everything and think twice before selecting correct drive.
Do you see three gray icons on the bottom? Under each of them the capacity of each drive is listed, and SD CARD has slightly different icon.
Hard drives on the screenshot have 465.8GB and 74.5GB, and on the bottom, the SD card, with 3.8GB capacity.

Let me start to say that this is not the AOKP thread, nor the Overcome thread. This is a thread for the CyanogenMod 10 ROM. So I cannot tell you anything about AOKP. Overcome is the easiest and safest way to get your Tab ready for AOKP or other ROM's like CM10 or CM9.
What I do know is you have to follow the Overcome installation procedure. The links on teamovercome.net are dead indeed, but in the first post of the Overcome thread you will find mirror-links that work.
So first install Overcome then AOKP.
If you have questions about these procedures please put them in the right forum. So questions about Overcome in the Overcome thread and AOKP questions in AOKP thread.
The meaning of all those strange words you can find in XDA's wiki.
Hope this helps.

The recovery is not only giving a blue screen, it doesn't even wipe or flash anything. It does absolutely nothing! On the 4pda forum there is a surmise that phones made in China work well with the new recovery, whether the phones manufactured in Vietnam get stuck on the blue screen.
Please, guys, confirm this! TIA

remove your battery and you'll see a sticker with "made in xxx by samsung" written on it. Some devices have only "made by samsung", which is still not clear to which country it belongs.
so far every one, who have a Vietnam-made phone, confirm to have a blue screen in recovery. This makes it very hard to flash the cm11. I've managed to do it via sideload function
Every other phone's owners (made in China or Korea) are happy to run a bugless cwm.
I installed recovery
I installed the ROM Jenkins
But it is stuck on the logo

Welcome to CMB Roms- CM done Better... Dark Themed for his/her Pleasure
Why CMB?
We are just better , in a nutshell we set out to give you the best of CM, with none of the annoying features (see list below), all this wrapped in a custom black theme. We used the KISS principal when deciding what to offer, we based our frameworks on CM alone (not FrankenFrameworks like some others out there), enabling us to provide updates and bug fixes as soon as CM does. This doesn't mean we are only relying on them for development, it just eases merging.
Features
Based on Android 4.4.2_M2, CM11.0
All current features CM11.0
Customized Dark Holo Theme With Gray ActionBars
Dark Mms
Dark Calendar
Dark Contacts
Ramdisk security tweaks, you can adb as root now!
Bash "tab to complete"
Remount helper, in adb shell
Old
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system
New
Code:
remount /system
Better Right??
We plan to add more features, suggestions are welcome (but sometimes ignored )
Navigating CMB roms
Enough already where do I find CMB for MY device?

Just like the TF300TG, The team has no plans on doing this. If some one knows how to build and would like to join the team.. We would most likely be able to make this happen.. We just need someone willing to take up the challenge. Let me know if this is something for you.....

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why isn't there XXXXXXX feature.
A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it
Q: But CM and all the others have..
A: ROM developers, including CM, build something they want to use. The ROM dev that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't (or don't want), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Octo-Kat

Bugs:
Let us know if you run into bugs. Get Syslog from the Android Market, if you don't already have it. No logs and we can only try to recreate the event off of vague descriptions. Please also include what you were doing when it FCed or failed. Logs can be emailed to: [email protected]
Basic Instructions:
Download ROM .zip file
Reboot to Recovery (Note: Use Three-Finger or adb reboot recovery - ROM Manager or similar software is NOT supported)
--- TWRP is the ONLY recovery Team OctOs uses - We do not support flashing on CWM ---
Flash ROM and GApps .zip files
Reboot
A Note about the Team OctOs GApps
We in Team OctOs believe in choices. We believe in leaving the fundamental decisions about your phone to you.
In that spirit, Team OctOs gives you options for your GApps experiences. While any GApps package should work, we offer you the choice of using some of the same GApps packages that we use ourselves, and leave the choice up to you.

I believe those 2 issues are known and currently being looked at, I think the gapps download option will be removed in the near future.
The Download GApps is part of the new (yet to be working) OTA system. Yes, it'll FC for now
We've had reports of Forward/Reverse lookup in the dialer also not working, this appears to have started with the jump to 4.4.4 - We are looking into it. Thank you for the reports!

Maybe I did something wrong not sure, at first I was hesitant cause I use philz recovery, & op in red letters says only use twrp, anyway, I flashed twrp image, full wipe in twtp & flashed rom, gapps, rebooted & started to set up. I looked inside the zip before I flashed to see if theme chooser was there, it was. But once the rom booted up & I started setting up, no theme chooser. I could see it if I went to settings, apps, all. What gives? Any ideas.

MultiROM is a one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch, once they are ported to that device. Besides booting from device's internal memory, MultiROM can boot from USB drive connected to the device via OTG cable. The main part of MultiROM is a boot manager, which appears every time your device starts and lets you choose ROM to boot. You can see how it looks on the left image below and in gallery. ROMs are installed and managed via modified TWRP recovery. You can use standard ZIP files to install secondary Android ROMs and MultiROM even has its own installer system, which can be used to ship other Linux-based systems.
Features:
* Multiboot any number of Android ROMs
* Restore nandroid backup as secondary ROM
* Boot from USB drive attached via OTG cable
You can also watch a video which shows it in action.
WARNING
It is dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. It is no longer messing with data partition or boot sector, but it is possible that something goes wrong and you will have to flash factory images again. Make backups. Always.
IMPORTANT
I'm not responsible for anything, you do all this on your own risk.
Once you have flashed and set up MultiROM, don't flash another boot.img using fastboot or normally. Always go to "Advanced -> MultiROM" to flash ROMs/kernels or other mods.
If you want to uninstall MultiROM, just flash the MultiROM uninstaller.
I am not certainly sure about the compatibility with stock Roms, I still need to test this yet.
Your device must not be encrypted.
To all devs maintaing Stock-based ROMs: Feel free to use my patched stock kernels to add MultiROM support to your ROMs.
When booting another ROM, you'll notice that in some cases, you can enter the recovery of the boot.img of the ROM. Please don't use it, flash everything using MultiROM TWRP.
INSTALLATION
Make sure you are on a Rom compatible with one of these kernels and flash it
Reboot into MultiROM TWRP and flash the MultiROM installer
That's it. You can now go to "Advanced -> MultiROM" to start flashing other ROMs.
Adding ROMs
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm.
Using USB drive
During installation, recovery lets you select install location. Plug in the USB drive, wait a while and press "refresh" so that it shows partitions on the USB drive. You just select the location (extX, NTFS and FAT32 partitions are supported) and proceed with the installation.
If you wanna use other than default FAT32 partition, just format it in PC. If you don't know how/don't know where to find out how, you probably should not try installing MultiROM.
If you are installing to NTFS or FAT32 partition, recovery asks you to set image size for all the partitions - this cannot be easilly changed afterward, so choose carefully. FAT32 is limited to maximum of 4095MB per image - it is limitation of the filesystem, I can do nothing about that.
Installation to USB drives takes a bit longer, because the flash drive is (usually) slower and it needs to create the images, so installation of Ubuntu to 4Gb image on my pretty fast USB drive takes about 20 minutes.
Enumerating USB drive can take a while in MultiROM menu, so when you press the "USB" button in MultiROM, wait a while (max. 30-45s) until it searches the USB drive. It does it by itself, no need to press something, just wait.
Updating/changing ROMs
1. Primary ROM (Internal)
Flash ROM's ZIP file as usual, do factory reset if needed (it won't erase secondary ROMs)
Go to Advanced -> MultiROM in recovery and do Inject curr. boot sector.

SUPPORTED KERNELs
M5 Kernel
AndroPlus Kernel (starting with V19)
If you want your favorite kernel to support kexec tell the dev to merge my commits.
Reserved
General Informations about Kexec are coming here soon.
I will test it when i come home and report the result.
Edit: all is stable only Multirom menu needed to be fixed but that you have reported, thanks
Now i can use stock as daily driver and cm12 to see the progress. many thanks.
Whaaaaaaat. This is amazing! Thanks for your work, keep at it! I will surely use the multirom a bit later, when some more roms like PA are avaiable.
Wow great work! A noob question but one assumes that I would not be able to have one rom on 4.4.4 and another on Lollipop 5.0 due to the fact the base Kernel AndroPlus is designed for 4.4.4 or does Multi Rom allow 2 different Kernels? Thanks in Advance.

It actually is possible. The Base Kernel is patched to be kexec-hardboot compatible. This means it is able to load other kernel to the RAM and run them from there. The host kernel is just a middleman loading the kernel to the RAM, it is not doing anything else which means it is not affecting the secondarys kernel at all.
I used to do this on Nexus 5, loading 4.4.4 with kexec kernel and then 5.0 preview as the other rom and it worked, so it should be possible here as well.

Oh wow thats fantastic news for sure. Lollipop here I come. I was hesitant before due to lollipop not being daily driver material but now it does not really matter. Do you get an option to select which rom upon phone boot up?
Thanks guys and great work

yup, leo is the Z3's codename. Sirius is Z2 and n801x is my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1. Guess thats what happens when CM breaks the naming law and calling it just z3..

see there we go with the Leo thingy again Seems like I need to edit the device tree to make the Phone in Recovery appear as some D**** device instead of Leo. Will do tomorrow and release a update. /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 is your physical SD Card (it is formatted as exFat which is what TWRP is displaying).
change updater-script to leo. this should help.
Yeah when I saw that in the log I figured it was incorrectly detecting the device. I look forward to the update. I also guess that's why the Multirom app does not work?
