Useless bump you made here.
And topics do not have to be closed, these can be used for discussing the same topic later, then there would be no need to create a new one.
Yesterday i saw that HTC pico now having dual roms installed one on primary memory and other one on sd-ext ,, the config of that device is lower than our MDPI so soon we could also have something like this.
yeah, pico got it too
there are many market apps helping in multiboot, but none of them support for our devices
maybe it just needs a think around,
my idea to implement this goes like this
the kernel of the primary rom should go on patch,
and just for a thought, the way linux mounts filesystems, should the sd card be partitioned for second rom

Yes saw that some devicea got multiboot implemented soon we can expect to have that according to,me if other android devices got it implemented that we also have it and,,, linux is just a kernel nothing else so devs have to mod the kernel to get os booted ftom sd card good news for unlocked devices

can't flash kernels until the bootloader is cracked.
however, the kernel modules are built for completely different hardware.

It's sources not compiled so putting it on your phone is pointless unless your planning on moving it to your computer and building it as firmware to be loaded after compilation / modification..
On another note, I found this of interest;

Dude no Xperia device is officially supported. At least the official website's list doesn't have any Xperia device.
On Xperia S we have to either flash a custom kernel or there are a few runme.bat scripts for installing CWM.

Because it paired with CWM 6, use the single CWM 5 recovery, oh and this half screen bug only existed on ICS As far as I know

nope. its because both cwm 6 and twrp 3.x uses buffer alignment by default which should be supported by kernel 3.x which is ics default kernel on all other oem stock rom, thats why we dont hear the half screen problem on other phone. they got kernel 3.x which works perfectly fine with cmw and twp buffer alignment.
we on the other hand stuck with kernel 2.6.32 which originally for froyo, doesnt have proper buffer alignment by default, thus causing the problem.
fxp got a workaround by disabling buffer alignment when loading cwm and twrp thus eliminating the buffer bug which causing the half aroma screen.
and i did the same thing to my kernel, add fxp patch and disabling buffer alignment in cwm and twrp.
how to downgrade to cwm 5
I wanted to downgrade from CMW 6.x (that comes with KernelPanic) to CWM 5.x. Tried various methods like x-part, copying files to /system/bin and /system/xbin and one-click-installs using adb, but it will not replace the CWM 6.x. Is that because it's somehow build in with the kernel (in KernelPanic)? Or am I missing something?
It's only bug on CWM 6 , but it also half screen on TWRP
anyone remember how the fix worked?

Now It's a pain in the *** to test a rom and we have to restore rom or some sort to get back to our daily rom.
And Sony Xperia S had succeeded,I'll take it as a reference and see if we can work on this.
This is not a placeholder.
Link to the Xperia S thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880305
I'll be "investigating" this.And I also need all the devs help. (I'm not really an highly skilled developer,so I would really need some help here)
Devs only please. No request for tester or users that asks for ETA. Do not post any reply unrelated to development on this thread.
Keep it only for devs,and make it clean.
Devs,good luck to you guys.
Dual recovery is needed,I'll start by porting TWRP. (I'll focus on this first)
Wow. This is kick ass stuff.
Similar to what was done in G3MOD, except that here its actually dual boot, with the ROMs installed on internal storage, while there it was implemented in a slightly simpler way by packing multiple ramdisks and extracting system.img files when required to switch between ROMs.
Considering our already existing problem of not having of an expandable storage, G3MOD's implementation seems far more appealing.
I will take a look at this soon enough.
Well I didn't store a lot of things on my device,only roms and some other stuff,my internal storage is actually more than enough.
But that method seems to be more friendly on the internal storage,as we have a lot of unused phone memory. (the place where roms are installed to)
I'll look into that too.
Edit : It seems like the G3MOD project is already abandoned. But we can look at their sources at github.
We could make it load from sdcard by pressing a combination of buttons on Sony logo! We need kernel first of all! But also a way to do it.

We're trying to dual boot different rom with different kernel
I don't believe that we can make it load a different kernel! If we could then we could also let permanently locked bootloaders to do so too! We will have to load it from a single kernel!

In the first thread,Xperia S is able to load two kernel.
why is there always have to be made for locked bootloader?
custom kernel NEEDS an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER.
how can you use a single kernel?via the patch?
I'll look into it first.

5. Do full wipe: format system, format data, wipe cache, dalvic cache
6. "install zip from sdcard"
7. Choose Rom zip
8. Wait.
9. Reboot

hands off vishal the efforts ur doing for ur roms and neo forum .. . carbon customized rom i hope next update rocks, some apps fc's like temple run for me
The reason behind fc and random reboots is the amount of free ram.. It is ported from htc desire forum and it has a usable memory of 591mb so you can imagine..I need to make it better so that it eats less ram on our devices.. I'll work over it.. And make things a little more stable in coming updates..
