[KERNEL][SM-T31x][SINGLE/DUAL][STOCK/CM] blackhawk's NEXT kernel 2.6.1 - Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Android Development

BIG FAT WARNING:
NEXT kernel 1.0 - 2.0 requires mali-400-r3p2-01rel3-t31x.zip!
NEXT kernel 2.1 and later requires mali-400-r3p2-01rel3-api29-t31x.zip!
Sources:
Kernel sources at https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4x12/tree/cm-11.0
Features:
Based on Samsung OSRC Note 2 N7100, Tab 3 8.0 and Note 8.0 kernel source
Single source for T310, T311, and T315 target (and Note 2 N710x, Note 8.0 N51xx). Only T311 version well tested on my device but both T310 and T315 version boot T311, not working GSM radio of course
Traceable source level changes: https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4x12/commits/cm-11.0
Open source Samsung exFAT modules included
Remove a lot of debug message from touchscreen driver, display, mmc, modem, bluetooth, etc. Now, dmesg output more useful than stock kernel
Disable a lot of kernel debugging support
Linaro GCC compiler
The ramdisk based on JB 4.2.2 AMG3 (T310 and T311) and AMH1 (T315), OTA recovery flash disabled
Some tweaks from gokhanmoral's siyahkernel for S3, passive entropy tweak applied
Auto root, SuperSU included please download SuperSU from Google Play. Heimdall v1.4.0 work for our device. For a brand new T31x, flash your device using "sudo heimdall flash --BOOT boot.img" and you will get rooted
Self compiled static BusyBox v1.21.1 in /sbin, android_reboot applet added (a quick but clean port from Android toolbox), swapon applet with priority option. On stock ROM, this version of Busybox will overwrite busybox binary in /system/bin or /system/xbin and save it as busybox.backup
Early boot scripts support (/system/etc/init.d, /data/local/userinit.sh, and /data/local/userinit.d)
Mali GPU driver r3p2-01rel3
KitKat external sdcard write access for user apps patcher
Known Problems:
Thanks To:

Directly flash mali-400-r3p2-01rel3-blobs-t31x.zip (on both ROM for dual boot user) is a must or your device will fail to boot!
As reported by @manup456, graphic glitch occurred in stock ROM with Mali r3p2. Workaround for this issue is "Turn off hardware overlays - Always use GPU for screen compositing" in Settings - Developer but this setting doesn't stick, so you must set it on every boot.

Both version not well tested (i.e. backup and restore not tested since have no free space SD card) but since this version based on official P5100, everything should be work correctly. Flash this at your own risk using existing CWM/TWRP recovery or Heimdall v1.4.0 "sudo heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img" command.
I am almost sure @Phil3759 will officially support our device anytime soon.
ROOT + BLACKHAWK + PHILZ TOUCH FOR YOUR BRAND NEW T31X
Single step for root and PhilZ Touch recovery using Heimdall v1.4.0:
Extract both blackhawk kernel boot.img and PhilZ Touch recovery.img
Install Heimdall for your operating system: Linux, OSX, or Windows
Boot your device into download mode, connect it to your computer, flash:
Code:
heimdall flash --BOOT boot.img --RECOVERY recovery.img
Done!
NOTE: I've deleted PhilZ Touch non SELinux version to avoid confusion, total 618 downloads for all variant!

Dual Boot FAQs
Adapted from droidphile's "Dual Boot FAQs" with permission.
1. "Why would I wanna dual-boot?"
A. You don't have to.
Suppose you're more of an aosp rom fan. But misses the HDMI out, bluetooth hands-free and love sammy camera more. Do a minimal installation of sammy rom and boot into it when in need of these features and use aosp rom otherwise.
Or you are a sammy rom fan but love the responsiveness and pure android feel of aosp roms.
And while you can dual boot two sammy or two aosp roms, it doesn't make any sense.
2. "What if I don't need dual booting?"
A. No issues. Kernel won't force to setup 2 roms. You can single boot as before.
3. "Will dual booting change my bootloader or do any dangerous stuff like setting my phone on fire?"
A. NO. Changes are at kernel and ramfs level only. Some space in your internal sd card is used, and also the unused hidden partition mmcblk0p16 is used to store cache of second rom. Dual booting doesn't repartition the filesystem or perform anything scary.
4. "I want to setup dual booting."
A. There are four situations:-
1) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as secondary.
2) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as primary.
3) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as secondary.
4) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as primary.
Prerequisites for any setup is
a) Flash latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel. BIG FAT WARNING: For stock Samsung ROM, NEXT kernel 1.0 or later requires mali-400-r3p2-01rel3-blobs-t31x.zip!
b) Flash latest Extended PhilZ Touch recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51364377&postcount=33
c) Atleast 90% battery left.
d) 3 GB free on internal SD.
e) Some spare time
1) Present sammy, setup aosp as secondary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Select "Run Aroma Dual Boot Tool" in Advaced Menu, create system.img for CM/CM based ROM and then close it
iii) Reboot into secondary recovery (red on screen navigation buttons)
iv) Flash aosp ROM as 2nd ROM
v) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
2) Present sammy, setup aosp as primary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Nandroid backup your current sammy ROM
iii) Select "Run Aroma Dual Boot Tool" in Advaced Menu, create system.img for Samsung stock/stock based ROM and then close it
iv) Reboot into secondary recovery (red on screen navigation buttons)
v) Nandroid restore your sammy ROM as 2nd ROM
vi) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
vii) Reboot into primary recovery
viii) Flash aosp ROM as 1st ROM
ix) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
3) Present aosp, setup sammy as secondary:-
Same as (1), instead of flashing aosp to second, flash sammy to second.
4) Present aosp, setup sammy as primary:-
Same as (2), instead of flashing aosp to first ROM, flash sammy.
NOTE:
-To dual boot Two Aosp or Two Sammy roms, just follow (1) or (2) (depending on which one of them you want as primary/secondary), just flash Sammy instead of aosp or aosp instead of sammy.
5. "What things should I be taking care off while dealing with dual booting?"
A. - Make sure where you are: in primary or secondary recovery.
6. "How to boot into primary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
7. "How to boot into secondary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
8. "Is kernel partition shared?"
A. Yes. Same kernel boots both roms.
9. "If I flash another kernel (that doesn't support db) do I lose dual booting?"
A. Yes
10. "I lost dualbooting after flashing another kernel. I didn't do anything to second rom files in sdcard/.secondrom. How can I get db back?"
A. Just flash the latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel
11. "Will there be any performance degradation on the rom used as secondary compared to primary?"
A. NO
12. "Will my phone run slow overall because of db?"
A. NO
13. "How to flash a newer version of 1st rom?"
A. As usual, just flash it from primary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
14. "How to flash newer version of 2nd rom?"
A. Just flash it from secondary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
15. "Would upgrading 1st or second rom cause other rom to fail on boot?"
A. No. Partitions of other rom are not touched during upgrading.
16. "I miss the recovery I used before, so much.."
A. PhilZ Touch not bad at all.
17. "User apps of 1st rom are automatically available for second rom?"
A. NO. However, if you had backed them up using Titanium Backup or similar apps, just restore apps while on second rom.
18. "I wanna keep separate backup for apps in both the Roms, since I use one Rom for say entertainment and other productivity."
A. Setup different backup directory in Titanium Backup in 1st and 2nd rom.
19. "I don't see STweaks app in second rom."
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
20. "Do I need to anything special before flashing a newer blackhawk's NEXT kernel?"
A. NO. Just flash kernel in recovery - whichever you used to do. Kernel image is copied to the unified kernel partition
21. "How can I run same STweaks settings of 1st Rom in 2nd Rom?"
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
22. "How do I remove everything related to DB and run single boot again?"
A. In primary recovery, flash blackhawk's NEXT tool and delete 2nd ROM system image. OR delete .secondrom directory in /data/media while on 1st Rom.
23. "If secondrom files are kept in /data/media, will wiping data in recovery erase second rom files?"
A. NO. /data/media is skipped in CWM recovery.
24. "I read somewhere that both rom data partition use the same space. Doesn't that mean my apps are shared across roms?"
A. NO. It just means they uses same partition. They're still different directories.
1st rom data = /data
2nd rom data = /data/media/.secondrom/data
25. "Will hitting "Boot into Secondary Recovery" in recovery boot menu change my recovery?"
A. NO. It just runs (not flash) an alternate recovery so that you can configure dualboot settings.
26. "How do I backup 1st Rom and 2nd Rom?"
A. To backup 1st Rom, do what you did to backup rom while you were single booting a while ago.
To backup 2nd Rom, use the secondary recovery.
27. "Is there an easier way for dual-boot?"
A. Yes, send your device to me.
28. "DB architecture?"
A. Like you know, every rom has a /data, /system, /cache partition and a kernel to boot.
For primary rom, it's
mmcblk0p21 = /data
mmcblk0p20 = /system
mmcblk0p19 = /cache
And these won't change whether you're single booting or dual booting.
For secondary rom, data and system is stored in internal sd, cache in hidden partition. Note that internal sd in our device is mounted to /data/media.
We have data as a directory, System as an image in data/media/.secondrom. Cache in mmcblk0p16 which is hidden partition and not used otherwise.
- When second rom is booting, second rom data is bind mounted to mmcblk0p21 as /data/
- data/media/.secondrom/system.img partition is mounted as /system.
- mmcblk0p16 is mounted as /cache.
More FAQs will be added and the list will be updated as DB is improved.

Build kernel and kernel modules for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 SM-T31x Exynos 4212
Ketut P. Kumajaya <ketut.kumajaya at gmail dot com>, Oct 2013
Samsung Open Source Release Center: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=sm-t31
Samsung OSRC exFAT source: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=exfat
Working kernel source, compilable and tested on SM-T311: https://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt01
I assume your home directory is /home/android
Clone kernel source repo:
Code:
$ cd /home/android/
$ git clone git://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_lt01.git
Create an environtment text file, save it as /home/android/build.env (change CROSS_COMPILE to point to your toolchain):
Code:
export CROSS_COMPILE='/opt/toolchains/arm-eabi-4.6/bin/arm-eabi-'
export LDFLAGS=''
export CFLAGS=''
export SUBARCH=arm
export ARCH=arm
Import environtment file above (dot+space+build.env), create build directory outside kernel source directory, and start the building process:
Code:
$ cd /home/android/android_kernel_samsung_lt01
$ . /home/android/build.env
$ mkdir -p /home/android/build/lt01
$ make O=/home/android/build/lt01 mrproper
$ make O=/home/android/build/lt01 tab3_3G8_01_defconfig
$ make -j8 O=/home/android/build/lt01
Copy the resulting kernel and modules to a binary directory:
Code:
$ mkdir -p /home/android/build/lt01-bin
$ cp /home/android/build/lt01/arch/arm/boot/zImage /home/android/build/lt01-bin/
$ find /home/android/build/lt01/ -type f -name *.ko -exec cp {} /home/android/build/lt01-bin/ \;
Your kernel and all kernel modules ready in /home/android/build/lt01-bin/

I will upload T310 version. T311 version attached at post #1 also work on T310 but every device have a different identity (default.prop). Internal and external memory works, including exFAT support.

I've been disable so much kernel spam but still a lot left flooding the kernel message buffer, just saying

[DEV][KER] Ultimate Kernel for XW build with CWM 5.0.2.8 and voodoo sound [REV 1.3a]

Features :
- Wifi and accelerometer should works fine for XW ROM owner
- Faster speed based on better code generation (will work on OC in next release)
- Voodoo sound and super user will be automatically dropped upon restart, so that even you have deleted them by accident, the kernel will always get them back for you
- Does automatically install busybox in /system/bin, so that you can start messing with bash script '
- Lifespan tweak (avoid frequent read / write to disk) and network tweak via sysctl.conf (since ver 1.2c)
- Performance tweak and battery life tweak as well via default.prop (since ver 1.3). To understand what I have done, check below for the copy default.prop with explanation.
- Automatically adds bravia engine to the system (since ver 1.3a) (there was a bug in ver 1.3 that makes bravia engine didn't work)
- Added 3 IO scheduler at the moment, sio, bfq and vr. SIO is selected by kernel by default. (You may override it with your init.d script) (since ver 1.3a)
- Automatically zipalign and perform database optimization with sqlite3 (thanks to ius in CM dev team to provide his statically linked binary) (since ver 1.3a)
- Perform a load of IO improvement when booting the device (since ver 1.3a)
Since too many people *****ed about the error while the kernel is running safe on my phone, I decided to make this kernel into dev release now. And may become private one in the future.
btw, if you want to use this kernel, please remove all those SetCPU or blahblahblah program for setting CPU frequency. Because setting CPU frequency simply doesn't work on my kernel (only 1.0Ghz max). And my kernel only works best with stock ROM, please let me know if you have any problem. In you have found any force close problem, and the problem persists after you have wiped the dalvik cache in CWM, that means you /data partition is doomed as having corruption made by the heat generated from other OC'ed kernels, and stop complaining about it in my thread. Just stick to the original kernel if you do not want the speed boost caused by dalvik int:jit mode. (The reason that I need to wipe dalvik-cache during installation)
For ROM developer :
- If you want to write something to /proc/sys/blah/blah/blah, you no longer need to use echo to input value to there. You just need to place a sysctl.cfg under /etc and then call 'sysctl -p' in the init.d script. Look below for an example of sysctl.cfg.
Credits goes to supercurio for his voodoo sound patch, xlm13x for testing, ius @ CM dev team for providing statically linked sqlite3 binary, utkanos for providing guide in make CWM, Turl for providing a guideline for making BroadConfig.mk (for the errata patch ), each IO scheduler author for their kind support for Linux community.
Change log in version 1.3a :
- Makes bravia engine works again
- Removed the problematic prop from default.prop so that the camera recording works again
- Added 3 IO schedulers : sio, bfq, vr (automatically select sio on all mmcblk partition by default)
- Sqlite3 and zipalign optimization upon boot
- Deleted the part for wiping dalvik-cache and cache on every boot (so this will do less damage to disk as well as faster boot speed)
(btw if you experience any force close, please boot to CWM and select 'Advanced' -> 'Wipe dalvik-cache'.)
- Since this build, there will be 2 versions because there is a IO optimization performed on /efs that may brick your device. Please always use CWM to flash both as I have finally made a backup script in the updater that automatically back up your /efs upon installation
- Since this build, the way to flash the kernel via odin is deprecated and un-recommended since it does not backup your /efs folder upon installation
- Since this build, service iq and user stats data will get disabled and no longer get sent to any user stat server
- Finally it is a stable release
Differences between dangerous build and normal build : dangerous build means it modify the mount option of /efs to disable ext4 journalism to gain IO performance which could compromise the integrity of the /efs partition (which means your phone can be bricked), normal build means that it doesn't do anything for disable ext4 journalism on /efs.
However the dangerous build should be safe if you flash it via my CWM flashable zip because it does automatically backup your /efs upon installation (and allow you to restore later). Just backup the efs_backup.img in the internal sdcard or external sdcard and you are good to go. (I have made the backup on both sdcard, and even if you install my kernel multiple time via CWM, the oldest version of efs partition is still be saved because the script does not overwrite the efs_backup.img by itself. If efs_backup.img exists, efs.img is created instead.) But it does really take you time when you need to restore the efs partition. (You have to repack it for flashing in odin or flashing via CWM, will make a guide for it later) If you really afraid of using the dangerous build, use safe build instead.
Change log in version 1.3 :
- Added bravia engine
- Moved those apk files aways from /sbin to /tmp
- More tweaks made via default.prop now
- Fixed a typo in the post init script that made init.d script stops working and stops dropping su and other stuff into the system automatically
btw since ver 1.3, the boot time will take longer as the system has to wipe and re-generate the dalvik cache everytime it boots. This is due to I have set the dalvik vm mode to int:jit and the dalvik cache has to be wiped. But don't worry, it will still boot.
Change log in version 1.2c2 :
- Major update that fixed the 'accident' (was too busying in development, sry)
- Added more useful binary into /sbin for normal boot condition and /system/bin, such as tune2fs and makee2fs
- A minor update in the post-init script that drops voodoo sound only when the string 'org.projectvoodoo.controlapp' in not found in /system/app package list (instead of totally matching the string)
Change log in version 1.2c1 (minor update that can ensure that voodoo sound is automatically installed + an accident :x ) :
- Automatically installs voodoo sound without any problem (If you find that voodoo sound is *****ing about mod developer is lame, just restart once and everything should work)
- Accidentally rolled out a development ramdisk for CWM in this release
Change log in version 1.2c (all the changes are made in ramdisk only, no kernel improvement yet) :
- Supports init.d script initialization now (Credit goes to ardatdat for original post-init.sh method)
- Using busybox instead of the crappy samsung stock toolbox binary (should be more useful if you use adbd for debug frequently) which has following 2 benefits
- Using busybox binary could also increase the performance as all the binaries are compiled with optimization (I am not totally sure about this at the moment, but it seems like the OS works faster now)
- A fully functional working bash script in /system/bin
- Network speed tweak by increasing memory buffer size for network connection (via sysctl.cfg placed in the root directory of the ramdisk)
- Has enabled many config that can avoid frequent read write to the NAND (disk) to further expand the lifespan of your device
Change log in version 1.2b :
- Added voodoo support to stock XW kernel
- Added CWM 5.0.2.8
- Modification on makefile that generates optimized code for our device
To-do list (for next major version release) :
- Add OC capability
- Installing busybox on boot.img by default <----- finished
- Add a version number in the build number <----- finished as well
Timeline :
Phase 1 : Boost performance and network speed boost by using the property I have set via default.prop and sysctl.conf (so it will work on any rom if the ROM developer doesn't override them, work best for stock ROM) <- finished, made in ver 1.3
Phase 2 : Removing those sysctl setting from the init script so that no duplicate entry is made in the ramdisk
Phase 3 : Enabling overclock in the kernel (yes 1200mhz by default but no longer 1000mhz) <----- will be the ver 1.4
Phase 4 : Patch out CWM to support backup to external sd, as well as supporting installing zip from external sd
Phase 5 : Properly adding zipalign to the kernel such that files will get zipalign-ed by default
Phase 6 : Add IO scheduler <---- Finished by half, still lots of scheduler can be added
Phase 7 : Allow the user to set CPU frequency for different CPU separately
Phase 8 : Investigate the wifi disconnect problem
Credit goes to supercurio for his old voodoo sound kernel patches made on Galaxy tab 10.1, which I have ported to this device using cherry pick method.
Kernel rev 1.3a download link (for odin) (Safe version) (without messing with /efs) (totally un-recommended as you need to wipe dalvik cache for using my kernel, CWM version does it automatically) :

Kernel rev 1.3a download link which can be flashed with CWM (Dangerous version) :
http://www.mediafire.com/?1ii2sdz1qode012
To install it (without CWM from stock firmware) :
1. Download the zip file from here and unpack it : http://www.mediafire.com/?cf6ah2cfzvcko
2. Download odin 1.8.5 from the sticky post
3. Flash the extracted .tar.md5 file with odin (just place it in PDA tab and press start after your phone has got into download mode and connected to your PC)
4. Then follow the guide below
To install it (with CWM from version other than 1.2c1) (recommended way) :
1. Download the CWM flashable zip file and then put it on your phone internal SD card (external sd card is not supported for installation at the moment, will get it supported in next build)
2. Start the phone in recovery mode with 3 buttons combo (Press the power button, and after the phone started, immediately press the volume up + home button)
2.1 If the phone is switched on, just power off it
2.2 After the phone powered off, press power button to switch it on again, after the boot logo is shown, immediately press Volume up + home button. CWM recovery mode will be shown.
3. Install the package via CWM (Install zip from sdcard)
Then reboot and restart the system twice to make sure that voodoo sound library is properly dropped.
Warning : If you are trying to update from Ultimate kernel ver 1.2c1, follow the following guide instead. I know this may be painful for you, however I am here to help you to fix the problem that I accidentally introduced in ver 1.2c1 without getting download counter increased. I apologize for any inconvenience caused. In general, if adbd is enabled on a device and if dd binary is presented, you can always use the following method to flash a kernel / CWM.
Guide post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25893081&postcount=102
To recover (uninstall my kernel) (for any errors) :
1. First open up this folder : http://www.mediafire.com/?cf6ah2cfzvcko
2. Select the target that you want (they are all flashable via CWM) :
ardatdat kernel v1.7b1 CWM -> means ardatdat kernel v1.7b1 with stock recovery ZCLA1 image (these are the images that used by ardatdat kernel by default)
ardatdat kernel v1.7b2 CWM -> means ardatdat kernel v1.7b2 with stock recovery XWLA4 image (these are the images that used by ardatdat kernel by default)
stock boot and CWM 5.0.2.8 (XWLA4) -> means stock kernel XWLA4 but with my CWM
stock boot and CWM 5.0.2.8 (ZCLA1) -> means stock kernel ZCLA1 but with my CWM
Stock boot and recovery (XWLA4) CWM -> means stock kernel and recovery image (DO NOT select this unless you want no CWM recovery and revert to default)
Stock boot and recovery (ZCLA1) CWM -> means stock kernel and recovery image (DO NOT select this unless you want no CWM recovery and revert to default)
3. Boot your phone in CWM recovery mode, select 'mounts and storage' -> 'mount USB device', copy the downloaded file to the internal sd that mounted to your PC
4. Then just flash it via CWM (Install zip from sdcard)
5. Wipe dalvik cache and cache via CWM menu
6. Reboot
And since ver 1.2c1, you no longer need to install superuser, su binary and voodoo sound seperatedly on your own now.

btw I hope that the same patch can be made to I9103_CHN_Kernel very soon. I have too much things to do atm, still a ROM and 3 exams to be finished atm.
hey thanks a lot for this but we'd like it more if it was a CWM flashable zip as the odin one increases the custom counter and we all do not have the USB jig... Can you help us with that if it's not much of a problem ?

Definitely, I will make one asap. So it will also flash superuser, su and voodoo sound @ once.
btw, I have already found a bug in voodoo sound. So I hope it can be patched in next build.
You can create it on your own.
follow these steps.
1. Download ardatdat's 1.7 kernel zip.
2. Download the Ultimate Kernel for XW.
3. Now unpack ardatdat's zip and Ultimate Kernel zip.
4. Replace Boot.ing of ardatdat's with ultimate kernel Boot.ing.
5. now zip it again.
Now you are ready to flash the Ultimate Kernel with CWM.
guys, is it possible to do so would have created backup on a removable flash drive?
Okay I have made a CWM flashable zip now. Check first post for more info.

put the package cwm + core, cwm and does backup on a removable memory stick, and, in principle, not bad!
Thanks for the wonderful kernel. It makes my phone with titanium ROM silly smooth and voodoo really rocks. For some reason I find the bass effect in ultimate better than ardatdat kernel.

Amazing sound performance with your voodoo enabled kernel.. Thank you UnknowzD...!! you rock..
i had checked this rom
but it giving error while updating zip from recovery
Thank you for your hard work and efforts for our Device.
is it possible to flash CWM 5.0.2.8 with CWM or can you please make it a separate file which we can flash from ODIN because if we flash this with kernel the Custom Count will be increased, as many of us are not having USB JIG it will be more help full for all of us.

Yes it is possible, coz I have made my recovery image seperate from the boot.img and actually you can use my recovery image with ardatdat kernel as well.

Thank you i haven't checked it, flashed it now ....
I'm getting a problem with the CWM Recovery.
Whenever i try to backup my system, it starts to backup perfect and when it reaches backing up data, data of external sd, it stops saying error in backing up data of external sd... It think it's because it's backing up in the internal sd which runs out of space...
Can you fix CWM to not back up data in internal SD and to not backup the external sd card ??

I am also having the same problem, its trying to take all the data which is present in External SD and dumping it to internal SD and giving error, may be because of insufficient space..
So can you please change the Back up location to External SD and not to take the back up of External SD card please.

Okay I will try to fix the problem tonight. Thank you for reporting the problem. In addition, I will roll out another build tonight that supports init.d script as well as installing busybox in /system partition (yes latest hacked busybox src that compiled from CM repo that gives you a much better bash shell than the original one @ /system/bin/sh. And no more crappy toolbox binary as well if they can be replaced from the one in busybox). In addition, it will also supports sysctl in the system partition so all the ROM developer do not need to use the echo '0' > /proc/sys/blah/blah/blah any more. You will just need to ship 2 files to change those values, a sysctl.conf and a init script that invokes sysctl.

[KERNEL][SINGLE/DUAL BOOT][JB/KK][STOCK/CM]blackhawk's NEXT kernel 2.4

NEXT 2.1.8 placeholder: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51678873&postcount=472
STOP! This kernel supports ONLY Samsung Jelly Bean 4.1.x, 4.2.2, CM 10.1.x, 10.2, and 11.0 ROMs. It won't work on ICS, CM 9, CM 10.
FOR NOW I FORBID ANYONE ELSE REUSE THIS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT DUAL BOOT PROJECT FOR HIS/HER OWN GALAXY TAB 2 PROJECT!
IMPORTANT NOTES:
NEXT 2.x separated in two package: the kernel part as blackhawk-next-kernel-2.x-p51xx.zip and the proprietary binaries part as proprietary-vendor-samsung.zip for JB >= 4.2 (stock 4.2.2, CM 10.2) and proprietary-vendor-samsung-4.1.x.zip for JB 4.1.x (stock 4.1.2, CM 10.1) . Flash the kernel and then directly flash the proprietary binaries!
Download both proprietary-vendor-samsung.zip and proprietary-vendor-samsung-4.1.x.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2285366 post #2!
Sources:
Kernel sources at http://github.com/kumajaya/android_kernel_samsung_espresso10/tree/cm-10.1-blackhawk
Features:
Samsung stock 4.1.x, 4.2.2 (since 1.8.3), CM 10.1.x and CM 10.2 (since 1.8.3) support with a single kernel image
For stock ROM: external SD card - internal media swapper script included
Samsung proprietary exFAT modules are loaded. CM 10.1 exFAT support files attached at post #2
For CM/CM based ROM, P31xx only: auto rotate screen default orientation depend on ro.sf.hwrotation value, camera orientation fix included
Dual-booting. You can have Samsung JB and CM 10.1 ROMs on a single device at the same time.
Nice looking AROMA based boot menu
Using CyanogenMod kernel source, updated to p3110 source for newer WLAN (Youtube HD bugfix on stock ROM), modem, sensors driver, and etc for both P31xx and P51xx target
CPU clock: 300MHz, 600MHz, 800MHz, 1.008GHz, 1.2GHz, 1.35GHz, 1.42GHz, 1.48GHz, and 1.52GHz, locked @ 1.008GHz on boot
GPU clock: 153.6MHz, 307.2MHz, 384MHz, and 512MHz, 307.2MHz as the default maximum clock
CPU voltage control. You can use Android Tuner/System Tuner/Trickster MOD to set CPU voltage
The ramdisk base on JB 4.1.2 (stock ROM) and JB 4.2.2 (CM 10.1)
Using newer PowerVR SGX 540 kernel modules and binaries blob
row, bfq, sio, and vr scheduler support
Governor bug fix. Replace Samsung's interactive governor with default OMAP4 3.0.31 interactive governor from omapzoom.org, plus pegasusq and lulzactive
NFS and CIFS/samba (not loaded by default) filesystem support
LZMA compressed initrd, to keep boot image smaller than 8MB
swap support. zram and cleancache with a working zcache driver, enabled by default
kernel config, insmod configs.ko and then you can access /proc/config.gz
external modem support, for PPP Widget (not loaded by default, P31xx need powered USB hub for external modem)
Some tweaks from gokhanmoral's siyahkernel for S3, passive entropy tweak applied
Remove a lot of debug message from touchscreen driver, display, mmc, modem, etc
linaro arm-linux-gnueabihf- cross compiler, compiler optimization applied
SuperSU v1.41 for stock ROM
Self compiled BusyBox v1.22.0-git in /sbin, config file based on CM's BusyBox bbconfig output. fstrim applet patch applied, android_reboot applet added (a quick but clean port from Android toolbox), swapon applet with priority option. For stock ROM: this version of Busybox will overwrite busybox binary in /system/bin or /system/xbin and save it as busybox.backup
Early boot scripts support (/system/etc/init.d, /data/local/userinit.sh, and /data/local/userinit.d)
Post boot script support (/system/etc/init.post_boot.sh)
For stock ROM: custom boot animation support (/data/local/bootanimation.zip or /system/media/bootanimation.zip if exists, Samsung boot animation as a fallback). If a bootanimation.zip found, the boot sound will be turned off as well as the shutdown animation.
Modified mount options
adb insecure, adb mode in charge state also insecure
Advanced TCP congestion support, westwood as the default congestion
No /system/etc/hosts patch, you can install AdAway from F-Droid

Auto root (for stock)
Auto busybox (for stock)
External sdcard and internal media swapper script integrated in boot.img (for stock as 1st ROM)
Override init.d CPU governor setting on boot completed (technical reason/by design). Please use an app "on boot" or /etc/init.post_boot.sh to set CPU governor
init script reworked (again), simplified
Standalone nooc version, no longer as an addon for standard NEXT
Untested CRT off animation support
NEXT users, please update your kernel to 1.3 version to avoid filesystem corruption risk on Samsung stock/stock based ROM! Please read Dual Boot FAQs how to update your kernel!
01/06/2013 beta -> 1.3:
Better data integrity on both 1st and 2nd ROM
Ramdisk init scripts reworked, inline with the latest Samsung (Taiwan BRI 04/2013) and CM (29/05/2013 nightly)
Inline with P31xx, that's way this port version directly jump to 1.3
Updated exFAT modules (don't know it's better or worse, it's closed source)
Default CPU clock still 1.008GHz, default GPU clock 307.2MHz. Non OC version as an addon
Both version tested on P3100 (remember, I have no access to P51xx device). Booted, upscale graphics, touchscreen not work, wrong orientation sensor, swapped volume button, got 1280x800 screenshots :laugh:
30/05/2013: Initial beta release.
Dual Boot FAQs
Adapted from droidphile's "Dual Boot FAQs" with permission.
1. "Why would I wanna dual-boot?"
A. You don't have to.
Suppose you're more of an aosp rom fan. But misses the HDMI out, bluetooth hands-free and love sammy camera more. Do a minimal installation of sammy rom and boot into it when in need of these features and use aosp rom otherwise.
Or you are a sammy rom fan but love the responsiveness and pure android feel of aosp roms.
And while you can dual boot two sammy or two aosp roms, it doesn't make any sense.
2. "What if I don't need dual booting?"
A. No issues. Kernel won't force to setup 2 roms. You can single boot as before.
3. "Will dual booting change my bootloader or do any dangerous stuff like setting my phone on fire?"
A. NO. Changes are at kernel and ramfs level only. Some space in your internal sd card is used, and also the unused hidden partition mmcblk0p11 is used to store cache of second rom. Dual booting doesn't repartition the filesystem or perform anything scary.
4. "I want to setup dual booting."
A. There are four situations:-
1) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as secondary.
2) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as primary.
3) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as secondary.
4) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as primary.
Prerequisites for any setup is
a) Flash latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel
b) Flash new ducati vendor blobs (since 1.8.x)
c) Flash latest PhilZ Touch - blackhawk repack version - recovery
d) Atleast 90% battery left.
e) 2 GB free on internal SD.
f) Some spare time
1) Present sammy, setup aosp as secondary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Flash blackhawk's NEXT tool, create system.img for CM/CM based ROM and then close it
iii) Reboot into secondary recovery
iv) Flash aosp ROM as 2nd ROM
v) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
vi) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
2) Present sammy, setup aosp as primary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Nandroid backup your current sammy ROM
iii) Flash blackhawk's NEXT tool, create system.img for Samsung stock/stock based ROM and then close it
iv) Reboot into secondary recovery
v) Nandroid restore your sammy ROM as 2nd ROM
vi) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
vii) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
viii) Reboot into primary recovery
ix) Flash aosp ROM as 1st ROM
x) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
xi) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
3) Present aosp, setup sammy as secondary:-
Same as (1), instead of flashing aosp to second, flash sammy to second.
4) Present aosp, setup sammy as primary:-
Same as (2), instead of flashing aosp to first ROM, flash sammy.
NOTE:
-To dual boot Two Aosp or Two Sammy roms, just follow (1) or (2) (depending on which one of them you want as primary/secondary), just flash Sammy instead of aosp or aosp instead of sammy.
5. "What things should I be taking care off while dealing with dual booting?"
A. - Make sure where you are: in primary or secondary recovery.
6. "How to boot into primary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
7. "How to boot into secondary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
8. "Is kernel partition shared?"
A. Yes. Same kernel boots both roms.
9. "If I flash another kernel (that doesn't support db) do I lose dual booting?"
A. Yes
10. "I lost dualbooting after flashing another kernel. I didn't do anything to second rom files in sdcard/.secondrom. How can I get db back?"
A. Just flash the latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
11. "Will there be any performance degradation on the rom used as secondary compared to primary?"
A. NO
12. "Will my phone run slow overall because of db?"
A. NO
13. "How to flash a newer version of 1st rom?"
A. As usual, just flash it from primary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
14. "How to flash newer version of 2nd rom?"
A. Just flash it from secondary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
15. "Would upgrading 1st or second rom cause other rom to fail on boot?"
A. No. Partitions of other rom are not touched during upgrading.
16. "I miss the recovery I used before, so much.."
A. PhilZ Touch not bad at all.
17. "User apps of 1st rom are automatically available for second rom?"
A. NO. However, if you had backed them up using Titanium Backup or similar apps, just restore apps while on second rom.
18. "I wanna keep separate backup for apps in both the Roms, since I use one Rom for say entertainment and other productivity."
A. Setup different backup directory in Titanium Backup in 1st and 2nd rom.
19. "I don't see STweaks app in second rom."
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
20. "Do I need to anything special before flashing a newer blackhawk's NEXT kernel?"
A. NO. Just flash kernel in primary and secondary recovery. Yes, on both 1st and 2nd ROM. Just flash kernel in recovery - whichever you used to do. Kernel image is copied to the unified kernel partition (since 1.4 version). Flash new ducati vendor blobs (since 1.8.x) on both ROM may be required to ensure vendor blobs match to the kernel
21. "How can I run same STweaks settings of 1st Rom in 2nd Rom?"
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
22. "How do I remove everything related to DB and run single boot again?"
A. In primary recovery, flash blackhawk's NEXT tool and delete 2nd ROM system image. OR delete .secondrom directory in /data/media while on 1st Rom.
23. "If secondrom files are kept in /data/media, will wiping data in recovery erase second rom files?"
A. NO. /data/media is skipped in CWM recovery.
24. "I was using ExFat card on sammy rom without any issues. I have setup dual boot with aosp and now after booting into CM it says microSD card is corrupted."
A. Aosp roms doesn't support ExFat out of the box. The data was corrupted by aosp vold. Even if you boot back to Sammy rom, it still would be corrupted. To recover data, manually mount the card in recovery, copy contents to internal SD and reformat card to a Fat32.
Also try
chkdsk X: /f (where X is the drive letter of microsd), you may be able to copy data.
25. "I read somewhere that both rom data partition use the same space. Doesn't that mean my apps are shared across roms?"
A. NO. It just means they uses same partition. They're still different directories.
1st rom data = /data
2nd rom data = /data/media/.secondrom/data
26. "Will hitting "Boot into Secondary Recovery" in recovery boot menu change my recovery?"
A. NO. It just runs (not flash) an alternate recovery so that you can configure dualboot settings.
27. "How do I backup 1st Rom and 2nd Rom?"
A. To backup 1st Rom, do what you did to backup rom while you were single booting a while ago.
To backup 2nd Rom, use the secondary recovery.
28. "Is there an easier way for dual-boot?"
A. Yes, send your device to me.
29. "DB architecture?"
A. Like you know, every rom has a /data, /system, /cache partition and a kernel to boot.
For primary rom, it's
mmcblk0p10 = /data
mmcblk0p9 = /system
mmcblk0p7 = /cache
And these won't change whether you're single booting or dual booting.
For secondary rom, data and system is stored in internal sd, cache in hidden partition. Note that internal sd in our device is mounted to /data/media.
We have data as a directory, System as an image in data/media/.secondrom. Cache in mmcblk0p11 which is hidden partition and not used otherwise.
- When second rom is booting, second rom data is bind mounted to mmcblk0p10 as /data/
- data/media/.secondrom/system.img partition is mounted as /system.
- mmcblk0p11 is mounted as /cache.
More FAQs will be added and the list will be updated as DB is improved.

Please try increase the CPU voltage by 25mV. In this version, CPU voltage 50mV lower than the previous values. You can use Android Tuner or /system/etc/init.post_boot.sh .
KK, you are a genius! This is working splendidly, I have cyanogen as my primary and blaster as my secondary and they are both workihg smooth for me so far... I have them both running currently at 1200 mhz and seem to be doing fine.. you have really made my day!

That's okay cuz I have No Frills set up for my CPU settings. Of course my public release is still running kkboot 1.6.
After looking at your install script IDK if I would include this in my ROM if/when you allow people to. I'll let them make up their own mind.

Personally, I found that Zap Blaster works well my device (p5113) because of the IR and such.. plus at the time it was overclockable and my HDMI output worked well with it. So, I decided to use it for awhile.. but I could not resist CM because it runs so smooth and I love how clean and reliable it has always been on me for this device as well as other devices I have owned.
Again, I am very happy about this DUAL boot option and I don't think I will change my setup for a time to come... My tablet is perfect now, in my opinion. Thanks again, KK.
The tablet behaviour between this kernel and the samsung original kernel is completely different! Ketut, if samsung would give a crap about their customers, they should buy this kernel from you and push it on all the galaxy tab 2... but that's not going to happen, so actually only the xda members have the chance to see their tablet working as it should, thanks to your work. Lucky us

Introduction
I was able to get multirom working on Motorola Moto G and would like to share with you guys. Moto G (falcon) is my first android phone (ya, you heard me correct. It took a longtime for me to switch to android ) and I am new to android development and XDA community.
I have converted my XT1033 to single sim variant after flashing XT1032_RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip firmware. I did this to install Parandroid (currently it only supports single sim). It might work on the default firmware.
MultiROM is one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod for Nexus 7. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch, Plasma Active, Bohdi Linux or WebOS port.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, daily prebuilt image files to install Ubuntu Touch 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
* Use for example Ubuntu Touch or Desktop alongside with Android, without the need of device formatting
* Boot from USB drive attached via OTG cable
You can also watch a video which shows it in action.​
There are stil many issues, and I am still testing and learning :angel:.
- Only for falcon stock firmwares. Doesn't work on falcon GPE.
- Sometimes Wifi not able to get IP address (static config works) on secondary rom. (same issue is observed on primary rom - fixed after flashing latest kernel)
- Sometimes secondary rom boot failure. Need reboot.
- Touch doesn't seem to work on multirom, so need to use volume down key for navigation and power button got selection. (Fixed)
- On GPE sometimes when booting I see "exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Permission denied" errors. reinstalling the rom in multirom fixes this issue. Need to check.

PA Kernel
I have tested booting following roms
- CynogenMod
- ParanoidAndroid
- Boot2Gecko
I will share any code modifications as soon as possible.​
Warning!
It _is_ dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. It is messing with boot sector and data partition. 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.​
Installation
1. Via MultiROM Manager app
Not supported at the moment.​
2. Manual installation
Firstly, there are videos on youtube. If you want, just search for "MultiROM installation" on youtube and watch those, big thanks to all who made them.
Note 1: Your device must not be encrypted (hint: if you don't know what it is, then it is not encrypted).
Note 2: There have been reports that (not only) MultiROM does not work properly with older bootloaders.
MultiROM has 3 parts you need to install:
Modified recovery (TWRP with Mutirom changes) - download the IMG file from Multirom Files section and use fastboot or Flashify app to flash it.
- Fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Patched kernel - You can use either one of the stock ones in Kernel section or third-party kernels which include the patch. Download the ZIP file and flash it in recovery. or flash the img from fastboot.
- Flash the "Stock Kernel (only for Stock firmware not GPE)" if your using STOCK 4.4.4 firmware images using below fastboot command
fastboot flash boot stock_boot_patched.img
- Flash the 3.4.103-XPerience-STK-14-gpemod from recovery if you are using GPE 4.4.4 firmware.
MultiROM (multirom-XXXXXXXX-v28-UNOFFICIAL-falcon.zip) - download the ZIP file from Multirom Files section and flash it in recovery.
Note: make sure to disable screen timeout in recovery (multirom_patched_recovery.img) (not required in latest recovery build)
You current rom will not be erased by the installation.
Download links are in the second post.​
Adding ROMs
1. Android
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm. As for the space, clean installation of stock 4.2 after first boot (with dalvik cache generated and connected to google account) takes 676mb of space.​
2. Ubuntu Touch
Use the MultiROM Manager app to install Ubuntu Touch.
Ubuntu Touch is in development - MultiROM will have to be updated to keep up with future changes in Ubuntu, so there's a good chance this method stops working after a while and I'll have to fix it.​
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.
2. Secondary Android ROMs
If you want to change the ROM, delete it and add new one. To update ROM, follow these steps:
Go to Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs and select the ROM you want to update.
Select "Flash ZIP" and flash ROM's ZIP file.
In some cases, you might need to flash patched kernel - get coresponding patched kernel version from second post and flash it to the secondary ROM sama way you flashed ROM's ZIP file.
Explanation of recovery menus
Main menu
- Add ROM - add ROM to boot
- List ROMs - list installed ROMs and manage them
- Inject boot.img file - When you download for example kernel, which is distrubuted as whole boot.img (eg. franco kernel), you have to use this option on it, otherwise you would lose MultiROM.
- Inject curr. boot sector - Use this option if MultiROM does not show up on boot, for example after kernel installation.
- Settings - well, settings.
Manage ROM
- Rename, delete - I believe these are obvious
- Flash ZIP (only Android ROMs) - flash ZIP to the ROM, for example gapps
- Add/replace boot.img - replaces boot.img used by this ROM, this is more like developer option.
- Re-patch init - this is available only for ubuntu. Use it when ubuntu cannot find root partition, ie. after apt-get upgrade which changed the init script.​

or flash PA-falcon-kernel-signed.zip (build kernel from aospal, should work on other roms????) from recovery.
- reboot to recovery
- Flash multirom-20140819-v27-UNOFFICIAL-falcon.zip from recovery
WARNING
Port is not tested completely and might damage your device. Not for the faint hearted

Does this replace the kernel on stock ROMs?
Also, does this modify the eMMC partitioning to store the second ROM system files or can you use external storage such as a USB stick via USB OTG

same question... multirom needs kexec support in the base rom. so this is just mutirom system or does it flashes a kernel with kexec support?
Amazing! I'll try as soon as possible. Could you share with us your device tree and your kernel sources? [emoji4]
@TeamMex perhaps something interesting for u man!
OP any instructions on how to use it?
Has you patched memory allocator's and kexec the kernel? Port Multirom is easy xD I have the sourse moded on my github but kexec isn't easy so tell me about your kernel patch

The stock_boot_patched.img and PA-falcon-kernel-signed.zip are patched to support kexec. You need to flash one of the kernels based on your primary rom, before flashing multirom.zip.
I think new version of multirom doesn't mess with the eMMC partitioning and I have not tried flashing secondary rom on USB OTG.

i do understand the instructions but adding them to ur OP would help first timers. we got people who dont have much experience with advanced stuffs like this man so was just suggesting!
Thank you very much! I'll wait for you to release the changes before implementing it on other kernels.
BTW the PA kernel does not work on LiquidSmooth - it boots but have no wifi/networking, just to say
It made you a little prettier topic :

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, daily prebuilt image files to install Ubuntu Touch 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
* Use for example Ubuntu Touch or Desktop alongside with Android, without the need of device formatting
* Boot from USB drive attached via OTG cable

[INDENT] There are stil many issues, and I am still testing and learning :angel:.
- Only for falcon stock firmwares. Doesn't work on falcon GPE.
- Sometimes Wifi not able to get IP address (static config works) on secondary rom.
- Sometimes secondary rom boot failure. Need reboot.
- Touch doesn't seem to work on multirom, so need to use volume down key for navigation and power button got selection.
You can get the relavent files at following location

I have tested booting following roms
- CynogenMod
- ParanoidAndroid
- Boot2Gecko
I will share any code modifications as soon as possible. [/INDENT]
[b][U][size=5][color=Red]Warning![/color][/size][/U][/b]
[INDENT]It _is_ dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. [strike]It is messing with boot sector and data partition.[/strike] 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.[/INDENT]
[b][U][size=5]Installation[/size][/U][/b]
[INDENT][B]1. Via MultiROM Manager app[/b]
This is the easiest way to install everything MultiROM needs. [url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr]Install the app[/url] and select MultiROM and recovery on the [i]Install/Update[/i] card. If the [i]Status[/i] card says [i][b]Kernel:[/b] [color=red]doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch![/color][/i] in red letters, you have to install also patched kernel - either select one on the [i]Install/Update[/i] card or get some 3rd-party kernel here on XDA. You are chosing kernel for your primary ROM, [b]not[/b] any of your (future) secondary ROMs, so select the version accordingly.
Press "Install" on the [i]Install/Update[/i] card to start the installation.
[/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]2. Manual installation[/b]
Note: [COLOR="Red"]make sure to disable screen timeout in recovery[/COLOR]
Firstly, there are videos on youtube. If you want, just search for "MultiROM installation" on youtube and watch those, big thanks to all who made them.
[b]Note 1:[/b] Your device must [b]not[/b] be encrypted (hint: if you don't know what it is, then it is not encrypted).
[b]Note 2:[/b] There have been reports that (not only) MultiROM does not work properly with older bootloaders.
MultiROM has 3 parts you need to install:
[LIST]
[*][b]MultiROM[/b] (multirom-XXXXXXXX-v27-UNOFFICIAL-falcon.zip) - download the ZIP file from second post and flash it in recovery.
[*][b]Modified recovery[/b] (multirom_patched_recovery.img) - download the IMG file from second post and use fastboot or [url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify]Flashify app[/url] to flash it.
[*][b]Patched kernel[/b] - You can use either one of the stock ones in second post or third-party kernels which include the patch, you can see list in the second post. Download the ZIP file and flash it in recovery.
[/LIST]
[b]You current rom will not be erased by the installation.
Download links are in the second post.[/b][/INDENT]
[b][u][size=5]Adding ROMs[/size][/u][/b]
[INDENT][b]1. Android[/b]
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm. As for the space, clean installation of stock 4.2 after first boot (with dalvik cache generated and connected to google account) takes 676mb of space.[/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]2. Ubuntu Touch[/b]
Use the [url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr]MultiROM Manager app[/url] to install Ubuntu Touch.
[b]Ubuntu Touch is in development - MultiROM will have to be updated to keep up with future changes in Ubuntu, so there's a good chance this method stops working after a while and I'll have to fix it.[/b][/INDENT]
[U][size=5][b]Using USB drive[/b][/size][/U]
[INDENT]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.[/INDENT]
[U][size=5][b]Updating/changing ROMs[/b][/size][/U]
[INDENT][B]1. Primary ROM (Internal)[/B]
[LIST]
[*] 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 [I]Inject curr. boot sector.[/I]
[/LIST][/INDENT]
[INDENT][B]2. Secondary Android ROMs[/B]
If you want to change the ROM, delete it and add new one. To update ROM, follow these steps:
[LIST]
[*] Go to Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs and select the ROM you want to update.
[*] Select "Flash ZIP" and flash ROM's ZIP file.
[*] In some cases, you might need to flash patched kernel - get coresponding patched kernel version from second post and flash it to the secondary ROM sama way you flashed ROM's ZIP file.
[/LIST][/INDENT]
[u][size=5][b]Explanation of recovery menus[/b][/size][/u]
[INDENT][b][color=Blue]Main menu[/color][/b]
[b]- Add ROM[/b] - add ROM to boot
[b]- List ROMs[/b] - list installed ROMs and manage them
[b]- Inject boot.img file[/b] - When you download for example kernel, which is distrubuted as whole boot.img (eg. franco kernel), you have to use this option on it, otherwise you would lose MultiROM.
[b]- Inject curr. boot sector[/b] - Use this option if MultiROM does not show up on boot, for example after kernel installation.
[b]- Settings[/b] - well, settings.
[b][color=Blue]Manage ROM[/color][/b]
[b]- Rename, delete[/b] - I believe these are obvious
[b]- Flash ZIP[/b] (only Android ROMs) - flash ZIP to the ROM, for example gapps
[b]- Add/replace boot.img[/b] - replaces boot.img used by this ROM, this is more like developer option.
[b]- Re-patch init[/b] - this is available only for ubuntu. Use it when ubuntu cannot find root partition, ie. after apt-get upgrade which changed the init script.[/INDENT]

[DISCONTINUED][KERNEL][G906S/K/L][4.4][5.0] Lolliwiz Kernel R10 [Sep 8]

This post can be updated anytime.
For korean support and for those who can translate Korean, visit my blog:
http://kykint.tistory.com/
Download TWRP Recovery v2.8.7.0 for G906SKL
/* Requirements */
* Galaxy S5 broadband LTE-A (SM-G906S, G906K, G906L)
* Samsung stock firmware or Dokdo-projct
- Kitkat: ANK1
- Lollipop: BOG2 for G906K, BOH1 for G906S/L
* Custom recovery (Philz, TWRP, etc)
/* Note before using */
* Backup important data before installing
* Upon installation, every warranty inclusing KNOX becomes void
* I, kykint, am not responsible for any inconvenience or problems that occur while using this kernel
* Only one hotplug driver should be on (mpdecision, intelli_plug, alucard_hotplug, lazyplug)
Lazyplug is currently not supported on kernel customizing applications. Wait until their developers update.
* Dokdo-Project version of lolliwiz is highly experimental. Don't complain about battery drain.
It also does not support uninstaller yet.
/* About new installer */
Since Release 9, the installer will automatically extract your device's ramdisk, merge it with lolliwiz kernel, and then install it.
Upon installation, if a backup folder (/system/lolliwiz-bak) is found, it will automatically restore it first and then continue installation.
It will backup original boot.img and sensors library to the backup folder (/system/lolliwiz-bak) while installing.
There might be some problems regarding this new installer, so please keep the following instructions in mind.
* When installing another variant's ROM, do not install lolliwiz right after flashing ROM.
Install the stock kernel of your variant, and then install lolliwiz.
* Those who have been using R8 or older version of lolliwiz must flash stock kernel first before installing R9 or later.
* Do not install stock kernel when lolliwiz is installed on your device.
Only install stock kernel when uninstaller fails to remove lolliwiz and restore to stock kernel.

Refer to the 2nd post.
/* Chatters */
Release 9 and 10 are mostly bug fix releases, so there isn't much difference.
Kitkat support has been put off to R11, and if a bug is found again and R11 happens to be released early, it will be put off to later release again.
Still, I'm considering EOL of kitkat version as it is becoming harder to support the old Linux version.

F2FS Conversion manual
/* F2FS Conversion Manual */
(for LP and Dokdo-Project only, no KK support)
(Not tested on Dokdo-Project)
I will not add any additional explanations about F2FS, since this is a very risky task and recommended only for experts,
and since not knowing about F2FS means that you're not one of them.
Cautions
1. Conversion process of /data partition and filesystem will wipe away every single data in your device,
so every data in internal sdcard should be backed up on your PC.
2. Flashing /cache partition image when the device has already been converted to F2FS will format /cache partition to EXT4,
so manual conversion process of /cache partition to F2FS must be done again.
3. The /cache partition image mentioned above is included in stock firmware package, so be careful when installing stock firmware
4. Inside stock firmware is included a stock kernel which only supports EXT4, so again, be careful when installing stock firmware
5. /data and /cache partition must be set to the same filesystem, both EXT4, or both F2FS
6. I personally recommend that every process be done using my TWRP recovery, which will be posted in a seperate thread later.
7. The F2FS version of kernel zip has a '_F2FS' tag at the end of its filename, while EXT4 has nothing.
Be careful, Dokdo-Project version supports both EXT4 and F2FS, so they're not seperated,
and when converting to F2FS on Dokdo-Project, you can skip kernel switching(reinstalling) process.
How to change filesystem on TWRP
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > (Select a partition) > Repair or Change File System > Change FIle System > (choose between EXT4 and F2FS) > Swipe to Change
* It takes a great amount of time when changing to EXT4, up to several minutes.
How to check current filesystem on TWRP
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > (Select a partition) > Repair or Change File System
and you'll see your current filesystem on the upper part of the screen.
Converting to F2FS
0. For stability, flash uninstaller first if you already have lolliwiz installed.
1. Install F2FS version of Lolliwiz. (_F2FS.zip)
2. Change the filesystem of /data and /cache partition to F2FS.
3. Reboot into recovery mode again.
Back to EXT4
0. For stability, flash uninstaller first if you already have lolliwiz installed.
1. Install EXT4 version of Lolliwiz.
2. Change the filesystem of /data and /cache partition to EXT4.
3. Reboot into recovery mode again.
Installing stock firmware on F2FS
1. Reboot into download mode and install stock firmware with odin as usual.
2. When the installation finishes, it'll automatically reboot into recovery mode and flash CSC package.
Wait until androboy disappears and the device reboots again.
3. Reboot into download mode again.
4. Install my TWRP.
5. Reboot into recovery right after installing.
6. Install F2FS version of lolliwiz.
7. Format /cache partition to F2FS
8. Run factory reset if needed. This is an option.
9. Reboot.
If the device won't boot even if you carefully followed all of the above instructions, repeat the process again.
Thanks
Thanks I was on the Korean forums yesterday trying to translate lol.
I noticed there's a test for b5. Giving it a try.
One issue I seem to have on b4 and 5 test is that no matter what kernel tuning app I use if I turn off mpdecision and intelliplug on, after a reboot mpdecision always comes back on.

Kernel settings are set to defaults on each reboot and the default setting on hotplug is mpdecision on, intelli_plug off. That's why every kernel app has the ability to restore previous settings after reboot. Try enableing them, kernel adiutor works fine for me

Thanks, but I told it to save settings. It's weird as all the settings were saved, including intelliplug on, but mpdecision was turned on as well. I'll uninstall it and start again!

Nice to hear it's working well now.
I don't get donations, maybe you could donate to the REAL developers out there, they're always working hard for us XD
Very interesting!
I'm reading the Asian forums since a week and I have found that this kernel is well used.
How can I flash back stock kernel if something happens? And where can I find stock kernels??
If they are unavailable, I'd like to make my own Odin tar.md5 files for flashing stock kernel.
Can I follow the script/batch procedure (found here on Xda) that produces the tar.md5 flashable files?
Tnx!!

Good!
I'm following the Asian forum where I've found this kernel and related config app, from which I've read that there's a modified version of the app....And for this please give me some infos.
I'm also searching for some interesting custom rom as I see there are some, like the KingWolf one or the Milan one.
Any help on using this kernel with some roms?
Tnx!

I uploaded lollipop stock kernels for both recovery and odin. I'll upload for kitkat as well when I get the latest kitkat firmware.
Sorry, this might be a dumb question, but I'd rather ask it then brick my only smart-phone:
I'm currently on miscom's ROM (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/galaxy-s5-g906-custom-rom-t2848569)
Also using Philz recovery
How do I get to the Lolliwiz Kernel safely? Can I keep my apps, settings and so on?
Again, sorry. This is my first android phone (but certainly not the last one!) and I'm pretty clueless... But getting the miscom kernel on it was pretty easy with a bit of reading...

Make a backup of whole apps with TitaniumBackup first, then backup system, data, boot in philz recovery(run custom backup) and flash stock lollipop through odin. miscom's rom is 4.4.2 as I know of, and my kernel supports 5.0.1 only at the moment.
If your phone bootloops after flashing lollipop, factory reset through philz and restore apps from TitaniumBackup, or flash back stock kitkat firmware and then restore system, data, boot in recovery.
Note that flashing stock firmware will blow away your recovery and you should manually install it again with odin. Also, factory reset through philz will preserve your internal sdcard but stock recovery WILL NOT.

Introduction
MultiROM is 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.​InstallationManual installation
Firstly, there are videos on youtube. If you want, just search for "MultiROM installation" on youtube and watch those, big thanks to all who made them. There is also an awesome article on Linux Journal.
MultiROM has 2 parts you need to install + one optional (deprecated) :
MultiROM (multirom-YYYYMMDD-v33x-taoshan.zip) - download the ZIP file from second post and flash it in recovery.
Modified Recovery (multirom-YYYYMMDD-recovery-taoshan.zip) - download the ZIP file from second post and use a recovery to flash it into the FOTA partition (see TWRP 3 thread for more informations).
DEPRECATED: Patched kernel - You can use those kernels on most Marshmallow and Lollipop based primary ROMs to add kexec boot support.
Be aware that those patchers will be updated when possible after kernel sources updates
Kexec support no longer required thanks to the no-kexec workaround by nkk71.
For convenience reasons, I enabled the workaround by default if kexec is not found.
You current rom will not be erased by the installation.
Download links are in the second post.
​Adding ROMs1. Android
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm.
Recommended values are :
Cache : Keep default value
Data : Minimum 4000
System : 1000 is enough for most installs
​Updating/changing ROMs1. 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.
OPTIONAL: Reflash the kernel patcher to add kexec support
2. Secondary Android ROMs
If you want to change the ROM, delete it and add new one. To update ROM, follow these steps:
Go to Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs and select the ROM you want to update.
Select "Flash ZIP" and flash ROM's ZIP file.
​Explanation of recovery menusMain menu
- Add ROM - add ROM to boot
- List ROMs - list installed ROMs and manage them
- Inject boot.img file - When you download for example kernel, which is distrubuted as whole boot.img (eg. franco kernel), you have to use this option on it, otherwise you would lose MultiROM.
- Inject curr. boot sector - Use this option if MultiROM does not show up on boot, for example after kernel installation.
- Settings - well, settings.
Manage ROM
- Rename, delete - I believe these are obvious
- Flash ZIP (only Android ROMs) - flash ZIP to the ROM, for example gapps
- Add/replace boot.img - replaces boot.img used by this ROM, this is more like developer option.
- Re-patch init - this is available only for ubuntu. Use it when ubuntu cannot find root partition, ie. after apt-get upgrade which changed the init script.

FAQ and other notes
FAQ and other notesAbout security
In order to make multi-booting possible, MultiROM has to sacrifice some security measures. Firstly, on secondary Android ROMs, /system is not mounted read-only. While there are other things preventing malicious software from messing with /system, this might potentialy make it easier for such software to attack that system.
Next, MultiROM doesn't work with /data encryption. Not many people who use custom ROMs also use encryption anyway, so that isn't much of a concern.
What do the ROMs share?
All ROMs are separate, except /sdcard, which is shared between all Android ROMs.
Why is my USB connection to computer not detected ?
Uncheck the "Enable ADB" option in MultiROM Settings.
How many ROMs can I have?/Where are the ROMs stored?
You can have as many ROMs as you can fit in your /sdcard. All the ROMs are stored in /sdcard/multirom/roms or on an USB drive./external SD card. This folder is unaccessible in Android, to prevent mediascanner from scanning it. You can either in recovery, or obtain root and go to /data/media/0/multirom/roms.
Can I have different versions of Android working alongside?
Yes.
The menu with all the ROMs won't show up during boot, how to fix it?
Either re-flash the MultiROM zip or go to recovery, Advanced -> MultiROM -> Inject curr. boot sector.
The reason for this is that something rewrote your boot.img, which happens for example when you flash a kernel. MultiROM's boot menu is part of the boot image, so it has to be added into it again.
The installation fails with "trampoline not found -1"
Often the issue appears because the ROM zip has a nested zip for rooting methods. Best solution is to remove the root zip from the ROM and flash it separately later.
Something wrong happened, I lost something or it's really laggy
You have been warned about making backups & the fact this is more experimental than stable.
You alone will be responsible for loosing data or having an usable ROM when you really needed it.
Everyone in this thread will try to help you, but we can't do backups of your data ourselves.
Thanks for your understanding, remember to read the previous comments and please try to help each other.​Current local manifest of the MultiROM build

Awesome work bro,thanks!!!
You are the best
Honestly, I never imagined that I'll be able to see multiRom on Xperia L
Thanks Dev. :laugh:
Awesome dev!
Will test it as soon as possible!
Thanks!
Awesome! Will test it for sure
WTF (What The Fantastic)
You're the best I'll try it ASAP
Just wanna make things clear
1. Can I install it without reflashing the current ROM?
2. Installing Rom to external SD Card Won't format and delete all the data?
So it doesn't mess with memory partition??
That means there's no hardbrick just (maybe) softbrick.
Again thank you very much. For your hard work

No chances of bricking at all if you follow instruction and flash it correctly.
Wow. Extremely awesome, thanks for making this for Xperia L!
Just two questions: Does this work by "unpacking" the rom on external memory and booting as if it was internal? Also, how do we get Ubuntu (or any other Linux distro) to run on our device? (are there flashable zips for that?)
