AFAIK, you cant dual boot GB with ICS/JB as the kernels are very different.

what about having the same kernal?

Am sorry, I didnt understand.
While dual booting, both ROMs share a single kernel.
So, for both ROMs to work, they must work using the same kernel, and hence must be ICS or JB.
GB kernel doesn't support ICS or JB.

It is possible, theoretically. I ran Cyanogenmod 10.1 using the stock ICS keyboard from the N-7005, so in theory it should be possible to get the stock JB keyboard working as well...please note this is on the i717, so maybe it's different, but the devices are so similar I don't think that really poses a problem.

Here you go some info regarding dual booting

Also here is a thread with rom's already updated to run as your second rom

This may not be essentially what you require but I hope it helps guide you either way.
@strictly.mobile:
U know those threads are to dual stock sammy JB with non-sammy roms (aosp/aokp). That is not what the OP asked for, right?

No dramas mate, I did see OP was newbie, I guess I should have added a heads up to proceed with caution and ensure you read and fully understand before attempting to dual boot.

You can't run two stock roms. Alliance is custom stock. Dev from alliance said no to this working. Asked before. Op wants stock 4.1.2. And alliance. Can't be done. Either way round 1st or 2nd rom it won't work. ATM.

[Q] I cant root Samsung galaxy I9100 flashed with Jelly Bean Offical Stock

Hi all
I just flashed my device Galaxy I9100G with the Stock Official Firmwares as this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679636
And before i flash i did factory reset from android OS not from recovery mode (Settings -> backup -> Factory reset) then i flashed the Firmwares everything good and it work great, then i try to root as they say here in first method, but after i chose apply update from external storage in recovery mode an error appear saying "E:Failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)" and i don't have an external sdcard i am using internal 16 GB.
Please help me
Sorry if i post in wrong section but i am new user this is my first post and the forum didn't allow me to post in developer section
Sorry for my bad english too
Isn't that method for ICS instead of JB? You can look for a guide that tells you the steps with Odin (in other words: flash a custom kernel with Odin to give you root access).

There is no custom kernel for stock official yet and as i know the root operation the same for all OS and devices right ?

Of course there is. Otherwise nobody could use rooted JB-roms. Look for Siyah for example.
Yes, as far as I know the steps are the same.

It does work for JB, but unfortunately u require an external SD card for that.
@OP:
However, I recommend you flash Siyah v6 b5 kernel via Odin.

Thank you for replay, but are you sure there is no way to do this without sd card ?
And second this Siyah Kernal is it nased on Stock Offical ? and does it work on I9100G or only on I9100 ?
Thanks

No way without an sd card.
Siyah is a custom kernel, but its good too. If you want to root with a stock based kernel, use Philz kernel.
U said u have I9100, right? Or is it I9100G?
Siyah doesn't work on I9100G.

That's a really big mistake mate! If you had done anything related to the I9100 on ur device, you would very well have bricked it!
Both have differences in hardware, and hence use different kernels and ROMs.

[Q][Solved] Dual-boot Pacman and Alliance?

I really want to try out Alliance before flashing over Pacman. I cant just use normal Siyah kernel as Pacman doesn't agree with it.
So I use Dorimanx. I get the 'Don't use 9.x kernel with Stock Sammy ROMs' (meaning Alliance) which I didn't think about until I saw it. From what I am seeing, v8.x is for stock ROMs only :s
Is there a way I can do this?
Cheers
I've just realized how confusing that is to read :L If you don't get what I mean, let me know and I'll try and explain it better
Since Alliance is a stock JB based rom, it cannot be directly dual booted (due to its /preload partition).

Maybe the downloaded rom is broken or something. Try downloading from another computer or an Internet Cafe. If possible, verify the checksum of the rom to see where it's broken or not.

Status 7 error arises usually when you are trying to flash a rom not meant for ur device. Are you sure you are downloading the rom meant for the I9100? Because some roms are available for multiple devices.

I have come across that status 7 error when being on certain kernels ( not dori though) but came around it by flashing philz kernel then rebooting recovery and flashing rom. Have you tried with another kernel or another version of dori? Hope you get it sorted out GL.

I tried Kernel_Siyah-Dorimanx-V9.32 on flashing rom. For now im able to flash rom from ANDROID ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT section. I noticed those scripts dont have ASSERTS.
But ROMs from ANDROID DEVELOPMENT has ASSERTS, even editing i can not flash...
Can you suggest a kernel which is suitable for problem.
What is your current rom.? Chameleon OS rom (4.2.2) or Chameleon 3.0.3 (4.1.2 hybrid). Are u sure your kernel is dori and not the stock from your rom. Sorry if I ask obvious but just checking. Maybe try flashing philz kernel and the rom. Read up first. I am sort of a noob so don't want to mess up your phone. Good luck.

Good thinking! Come to think of it, I had this issue while flashing Resurrection Remix while being on Dorimanx kernel. Switched to Siyah kernel and the flash went well.. :good:
