@mikeioannina What's your stance on AOSP 5.x? Some people said some confusing things regarding you being absolutely unrelated to it and I want to get some things clear before words run off the road.
Also noticed a distinct lack of MDPI support for 5.0+ in various assets, not sure if they're WIP or not meant to be made at all.
In the requirements it said that need 2gb ext4 partition, i have only 768mb ext4 partition,how about that?
Since the ext4 is for data, so it will be fine, right?

AOSP 5.x is a LegacyXperia team work, I don't know what rumors you heard
Where did you see the lack of MDPI support? MDPI isn't supported very well in the past few android versions (HDPI too but not so much), because there are no new devices using that density. We can always improve where possible, but at the moment cm12 hasn't been tested a lot on MDPI devices due to lack of testers & time.

Any size will do, it just limits your available space to install apps. Since the user can now define the size of the partition, we recommend more than 2GB so there's no need to use apps/scripts like link2sd/app2sd etc.
cm12 for smultron
Mike, Any lags at all?? Just wanted to be sure before flashing.
Nd what happened to the upload? Only Anzu's been uploaded.
------Update------
Ok its on again.

I have a Coconut, and what I've noticed so far was the Boot Animation, however, more notable the fact was that some Gapps packages had MDPI resources in KK but lack it in LP. Speaking of which, any way to flash unsigned updates through recovery?
this has cyanogen recovery or CWM ??
Is this enough?
I have a class 4 Sandisk 16GB micro sd.
Will i feel sluggishness with cm12?
I tried AOSP build and anything that loads from sd-ext (like everything) was uncomfortably slow. When application was loaded in memory animations were very smooth. I tested on my Xperia Mini (smultron) with a very old 8GB class 4 card.

Cyanogen/CM recovery. CWM is dead and no longer maintained
Great to read that cm12 is available now.
Are there any installation instructions? I didn't find cm12 sections in the wiki articles.
can't install recommended gapps on haida with cm12 and AOSP, got this error on mini and normal package:

CM12 Impressions
Hey guys,
I just installed cm12 on my smultron. There was no problem during the flashing and installation process. 'Android is upgrading' took a lot of time to complete. Later on, the introduction process ( wifi, sign in etc.) was very very laggy. I somehow managed to finish it. After that too there was lag. Then i played around a little bit , trying out the features , and now , its smooth . This ROM is incredible now . Thanks to all DEVS who made these 4-year old devices running the latest version of android.........
P.S. Sorry for my bad English
installation proccess?
1. install kernel from ROM
2. format /System /Data /Cache
3. install ROM
4. install gapps
before all we must have >2gb partition on SD card (what format: fat, ext4, ...)? what is recommended partition size? I don't want to use Link2SD (I'm using small apps)

Tried using a prepacked signapk with keys, I've got some "E: footer error". PA Gapps refuses to install for the same reason by default. Not entirely sure what I messed up there.

SD-EXT is mandatory for 5.0+ on these devices, your /data is by default the second partition of SD card, which is what needs to be 2GB or larger for optimum. CM Recovery formats it as ext4, F2FS support is hanging somewhere.
Does the second ext4 partition really need to be set as secondary, or primary will also be OK? I'm asking because with Link2SD on CM11 it needs to be primary, so switching between CM11 and CM12 will mean also reformatting the SD card.

does this partition must be primary? and also partition layout on SD card: does this "/data" partition must be before partition which phone is going to use as actually SD card

There are a lot of ways of moving /data to SD ext(2nd) partition. Here I'll show you an easy way to do it which is fully compatible with Samsung Galaxy ACE(and possibly other devices as well). If you don't like the method used here, try other Data2SD/ext mod which may suit your needs.
Why move dalvik-cache to RAM? Basically, the idea of moving the whole /data partition to SD ext partition is to primarily get more space for installing apps. And in this case, it does perform very well and combined with fast SD cards, it could even provide real-life performance boost. Now the downside to this, is that while most /data contents just get copied and read not that much often, dalvik-cache stores some info that needs to be read and updated very frequently. This results in a high I/O read/write frequency and thus results in shortening of the SD card life(in theory, the same could also be said when left internally but this time dealing damage to the nand disk instead). To counter this, the method I used is to move dalvik-cache to a virtual-disk like partition known as a tmpfs. tmpfs resides in RAM and has dynamic resizing structure which can allocate space depending on your needs. This way, dalvik-cache won't be using any physical disk and therefore causing damage to none. Almost too good to be true right? Well the drawback is, because tmpfs resides in RAM anything written onto it get's lost when rebooted or in-case of power loss thus resulting in loooong boot times(depending on the apps installed), as dalvik-cache contents are being rebuilt on every boot. Well I think that's enough of dalvik-cache and lets start with the mod.
WARNING
USING A NON-APP2SD / NON A2SD / NON-LINK2SD ROM OR SIMPLY UNINSTALLING NON-APP2SD / NON A2SD / NON-LINK2SD IS STRICTLY RECOMMENDED
DO NOT EVEN TRY THIS MOD IF YOU HAVE ANY FORM OF NON-APP2SD / NON A2SD / NON-LINK2SD INSTALLED
ALWAYS PERFORM A BACKUP BEFORE TRYING OUT STUFF LIKE THESE
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything bad happening in the world blah blah, you know the drill!
Put the files of Data2SD_for_SGA.zip inside the corresponding places on your phone manually.
system/bin/e2fsck
system/xbin/busybox_d2sd
system/etc/install-recovery.sh
--------------------------------------
Basic Requirements
1. Fresh ROM
2. Rooted
3. No A2SD, No App2SD, No Link2SD
4. SD Card Partioned to Ext2 and Fat32
5. SD Card must be original (NOT Class A) as much as possible Class 4 and up.
6. Make sure that your SD Card is partitioned accordingly. Just like how you did when using link2sd.
7. Previous link2sd users need not partition your SD Card. Just format the EXT2 partition.
Steps
1. Flash DXKC1 ROM in your phone
2. Partition your SD Card with EXT2 (first) then the remaining FAT32
3. Root your phone with SuperOneClick then reboot
4. Before inserting the SD Card remove .android_secure, Android and LOST.DIR folders. And make sure that EXT2 is clean
5. Copy the extracted Data2SD_for_SGA.zip on your SD Card
6. Install Root Explorer on your phone
7. Copy the files from the extracted Data2SD_for_SGA.zip to your phone using root explorer
system/bin/e2fsck
system/xbin/busybox_d2sd
system/etc/install-recovery.sh
8. After successfully copying the files, reboot phone.
9. Turn on phone and wait. The initialization might take some time depending on the speed of read/write of your sdcard.
10. If errors has been encountered, REPEAT THE STEPS FROM STEP 1.

Hi, it tried 3 times and it's not working for sga.
Would that work also on GingerBread? AFAIK automount scripts make SGA reboot as per Link2SD issue.
@mastrone -> Link2SD and Data2SD is a different thing.. But both won't work on Gingerbread because install-recovery.sh is quoted inside init.rc
@roninxt -> worked for me... i am using DXKC1 ROM...

I'm also using that rom. But i didn't flash to a fresh rom. I had a Link2sd installation before and i followed the steps. I also uninstalled Link2sd.
Can someone explain why do we need a fresh rom?

When you have an applications installed before putting data2sd in its place... Some or most of the application will result to FORCE CLOSE... That's the reason why it should be applied on a FRESH ROM.
I experienced it before when i got excited on applying Data2SD having 200 apps installed... The result, i got FORCE CLOSES on most of my applications.
But you can still try it out on a currently running ROM in your phone, make sure that you have no a2sd, app2sd or link2sd installed..

please specify this for GINGERBREAD or FROYO

Basically to avoid/minimize errors with conflicting mods prior to this mod. If you're an advanced user(or something like that) you probably know what you're doing already so fresh ROM install is not necessary but still recommended.
@tazz811
Nice work man, I'm assuming that the current custom ROM available for SGA does not have init.d support as of now and that's why you placed the script inside the install-recovery.sh script. Well, this might sound useless but, why not make install-recovery.sh call any scripts from init.d? Maybe something like:
Code:
list=`ls /system/etc/init.d/*`
for k in $list
do
sh $k
done
this way, you can run the data2sd script from init.d which will then make it easier to make modifications as well as allow other scripts to run on init.d.
@Ungaze... Thanks for the idea... You owe all the credits... It's me LTGB
list=`ls /system/etc/init.d/*`

my understanding of this simple script is, it will run any script found inside system/etc/init.d/ folder.

No.. It's not working on a rooted Gingerbread ROM (Stock or Villain ROM). The init.rc is kinda secured even if you unquote install-recovery.sh it will revert back to the original state. Therefore install-recovery.sh will not be executed during boot time.

working on it! thanks man. TCP rules
Ok i got it to work. I have about a couple of apps installed about 10 and i was successful running the script. I uninstalled all my other apps. I didn't encounter force closes. So yes i can confirm that d2sd will work even on an existing sga rom. But you need to uninstall most apps including big ones as this might lead to a force close.
not work on my SGA,install from fresh rom dxkc1

following your instruction, tried almost 10 times and still not work for me....
This is a modified CWM-based recovery for the Motorola Photon 4G. It is based on my own custom code forked from the CyanogenMod team's recovery. The major changes I have made include full support for dual SD cards, support for webtop partitions (SD card and internal) and changes to Nandroid backup/restore for this phone's additional partitions.
Some highlights include:
Dual SD card support
ADB support
USB Mass Storage support
Nandroid additions/changes
ext3 formatting
Probably others
This recovery is only for UNLOCKED devices. It is intended to be flashed directly to the recovery partition.
UNLOCKED users can flash this recovery using:
Code:
moto-fastboot devices
moto-fastboot erase recovery
moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery-photon3.img
Example:
Code:
$ moto-fastboot devices
TA20700KXH fastboot
$ moto-fastboot erase recovery
erasing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 0.741s]
$ moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4780 KB)... OKAY [ 0.490s]
writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 0.544s]
This is posted in a DEVELOPER forum and is being released to help further the development of Android for the Motorola Photon 4G. I have NOT personally tested this on my phone and YOU assume full responsibility for any damage incurred to YOUR phone!

I do NOT have a Motorola Photon 4G. I have based this recovery off the Photon kernel and Atrix resources as suggested by Calkulin.

Original ROM Manager/CWM installable zip thanks to SolidHelix. You must still be UNLOCKED and have already applied at least one version of this recovery via fastboot to use them.
Source is here.
A few notes:
The "osh" partition is webtop. It is the largest by far and will take some time to backup. Nandroid is not frozen!
The "sd-ext" partition is an ext2/3 partition on your external SD card. Veterans will know this as apps2sd and data2sd from other phones. I am not aware of any use of this partition on this phone yet.
Thanks to:
Koush and the CM team for CWM
Calkulin for pointing out the kernel
Everyone who has made unlocking the Photon possible
** Changelog **
2011-11-14 (5.0.2.7-photon3):
Minor bugfix update mostly
ext4 experimental support
Added the ability to convert an ext3 partition to ext4 under advanced. Shouldn't break anything, but it is experimental
2011-09-23 (5.0.2.3-photon2):
Updated to CWR5 base source.
The blue version is now the new CWR5 color. Old blue is gone. New photos welcome!
2011-09-17 (4.0.1.5-photon1.3):
Added a verify option to the backup and restore menu.
Renamed internal SD card mount point to /emmc and external is now /sdcard (this is largely cosmetic).
Merged in miscellaneous fixes from the official CWM. Version 5 will be merged in once its ready.
2011-08-17 (4.0.1.5-photon1.2):
Changed fstab to ext3 since no kernel support yet
2011-08-17 (4.0.1.4-photon1.1):
Added 0MB option to ext3 partition size under External SD card partitioning which removes any ext3 partitions from the card (choose 0MB ext3/0MB swap to have only a FAT32 partition).
Added a red build to the mix.
Updated the update-binary in the CWM zips to be tailored for this phone.
Minor fixes to sdparted (log file related mostly).
2011-08-14 (4.0.1.4-photon1):
Initial release
Screenshots
Thanks to DarkSim2o9 for the following screenshots (these show an Atrix, but the color is identical):
Orange
Cyan
Blue
Light green
Dark green
Red
Known Issues
I doubt ext4 support works due to no kernel support. Disabled currently. Added in -photon3.
Soft keys to use as navigation may not work due to the kernel.
Miscellaneous
If you'd like ROM Manager to see this recovery as "official" you can try XCellPhoneSalesRep's suggestion posted here.
Alternately, you can try dcarpenter85's suggestion here.
For issues with recovery not sticking, see here:
Thanks to mrinehart93 for pointing this out.
The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot with the stock rom. On boot it checks the recovery partition for some update and with CWM installed decides to reflash the stock recovery over it. Rename or delete the file and the CWM should stick.

Two questions:
1. Has anybody verified the "ROM Manager support" method on the Photon yet?
2. Other than color choice, what is the difference between this recovery and the one Calkulin posted earlier?
i think theres an issue with the recovery.
it installed perfectly and booted properly.
i chose to format the internal sd partition and it didnt remove any of the data.
i havent tried to flash anything yet or make a nandroid but ill keep you posted and i do have it loaded.
thanks for all of your hard work. greatly appreciated

the same way you boot into fastboot
when phone is off.......
1. press and hold power and volume down
2. when the phone displays fastboot release the buttons
3. use volume down to switch to android recovery
4. press volume up and boot into cwm
Im creating a backup as I type (speak)

Calkulin's is based off my -atrix3 revision. This is slightly newer code (-atrix3.1 bug fixes mostly). It uses the same kernel as his. He PM'ed me to let me know how he got it to work on this phone and I simply used his advice to create the thread.
I haven't verified ROM Manager on this phone. It may need until Koush updates ROM Manager to say it supports this phone. I thought several times about editing that out of the second post but chose to leave it for now..

Thanks, the table looks exactly like the Atrix (not surprising). If choosing "Format /sdcard" from the mounts and storage menu didn't work, I'll probably need /tmp/recovery.log after trying (but before exiting recovery - the file is lost then).
Minor update released. Biggest changes include 0MB ext partition option under external SD card partitioning which combined with 0MB swap gives you just a FAT32 partition without having to use Windows, etc. There's also a red version now.
The code is technically based on 4.0.1.5 but Koush pushed his commit late and so the build still says 4.0.1.4. I didn't see the need to recompile just for that

Install and Configure a2sdgui ROM's CyanogenMod
Hello fellow good here I leave this tutorial hos to use a2sdgui based on CyanogenMod ROMs, as these ROMs do not include this system and its installation is different from a stock rom; a2sdgui is an app that allows us to extend the internal memory the mobile to have more space to install apps, this is accomplished by configuring two aspects: SD memory partition and installing a script called darktremor a2sdgui, well initiate:
THE WHOLE PROCESS IS DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKS IN MOBILE IF YOU DO EVERYTHING AS SHOWN TO WORK ALL YOU ASSURE THAT CORRECTLY
RECOMMENDED TO DO BEFORE INSTALLING THE MOBILE APPS
Requirements:
- ROM based CyanogenMod 7.1 or 7.2
- Install a2sdgui (DOWNLOAD FROM THE MARKET)
- Script darktremor a2sdgui 2.7.5.3 Beta 04 (Download)
- SD card partitioned
Instructions:
1. - Install a2sdgui
2. - MicroSD Memory Partitioning:
First download the MiniTool Partition Wizard.
http://download.cnet.com/Partition-W...=dl&tag=button
Once installed, we put our SD on the PC (with a reader, adapter or anything like that) and open the program.
If you already have some partitions it is recommended that if we start from 0 erase all as shown.

After deleting all now begin creating them.
We give and we get this Edit menu and the first is FAT32.
We have to make FAT32 and Primary, we assign space is relative, I having 8GB (class 6) I put all but 1.5 will be for ext4 and swap.
Now for the ext4 partition, select PRIMARY. Now the partition type is relative, it is recommended that if your card is less than 6 class partition is ext2. If Class 6 or more ext4. That and I leave to your judgment, in my case I assign 1 GB will be to host the apps as if they were in the internal memory.
Now we use the remaining space for the swap partition (PRIMARY), in my case 500 Mb RAM With this more of our ACE will have 800 MB of Ram (the swap partition is a partition that is used like RAM, it is so important!)
APPLY Now we give and we get this message should accept and the thing to end as you see in the two screenshots below.
Partitions that I recommend are:
3. - Restart the phone in recovery mode
4. - Scroll to and select mounts & storage mount / data and mount / system
5. - Made the above should be unmount / data and unmount / system
6. - Now return to the main menu of recovery
7. - Enter to install zip from sdcard> choose zip from sdcard>-2.7.5.3-beta04 dtapps2sd-signed.zip
8. - Restart the phone, when you start DO NOT OPEN OR ANYTHING IN THE MOBILE, the mobile just restart again, it is NORMAL not alarmed.
9. After reboot, enter A2SDGUI. On the menu that appears in the display of APPS on SD are expected to be active and SWAP may also, in case this is not no more to give up and active. At the end of the menu is the VALUE SET 0-100, I got 100 and I gave the side.
10. - Now we turn to LowMen directly and I have chosen this, to me is the one that best suits me. The option below elijais leave more free memory, it is better but in my case having 800 mb is fine for me up there.
11. - Now let's Dalvik-Cache and choose it and click Move & Rebuild and phone will reboot.
AND THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE TO END MUCH MEMORY FREE AND ESPECIALLY A lot of RAM! ENJOY!

@tazlooney89, thanks for sharing this tutorial.
Could you please explain the difference between link2sd, s2e and app2sdgui??
there are so many methods, gets pretty confusing which to use.

I haven't used s2e, so i can't give you a description of, but i can say that the main difference between links2sd and app2sdgui is that meanwhile the first only moves the apps to the sd (even those that aren't allowed to by the os), app2sdgui "cheat" Android to "think" that it have more internal memory, but really it's just part of your sdcard.
Hope you'd understood me

Ok. Thanks. So what do you use? app2sdgui? I have used Link2Sd for a week or so now. I think it is really good. it gets the job done nicely.

I think you guys didn't understood me; I'm on the stocklite v3, and it's a custom rom with DT scripts installed. Anyway I'll take a look over that threads ;-)
EDIT:
Haha, i've messed it up!
I don't know why or how, but now i have the app2sdgui running, but....also i had runngin link2sd, and several apps linked. Now i have a lot of "andro-boxes" (linked apps that are, seems, not readable) in my phone, a sdcard partitioned and a lot of information blocked.
I'm trying to create the mount scripts on link2sd to unmake the links, and start using app2sdgui, but link2sd can't because "device or resource busy"
Good, i'm the best! XD

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICKED YOUR DEVICE.
Do research and reading if you are uncertain about this rom.
Do not PM me about the ROM.
WHAT IS IT?
Xylon is fully transformed distribution for Android Devices. It is designed to take full advantage of the device’s hardware and to provide the user pure Android experience.
The team is constantly working on making things better for the users and is happy to do so. We, the team, believe that for one to experience the pure taste of Android, he/she should be provided with something which is fast, intuitive and fluid – That’s where we come in – To provide you that.
Xylon started as a part of the Fruits & Veggies (FNV) project, a community ROM for the Galaxy Nexus and is now set up individually but its roots are based on FNV. Remicks, the founder of the FNV – inspired Daniel MM (Daxmax, founder of Xylon) to build something that would make users love what they use. In Daniel’s words – “This is an FNV based ROM, not FNV. But it has the winds of FNV, and it has more spacious features around the Android world.”

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
CHANGELOGS:
Look at XYAOSP source history for further changes, I will not post them.
02/27 – Repo synced, Initial build so there could be many bugs.
03/06 – Repo synced, kernel updated to 3.0.68 with new lowmemorykiller, font size increased a little in statusbar and Trebuchet, you can increase icon size to 120% in Trebuchet, gesture control in Trebuchet, new SuperUser (Koush's).
IMPORTANT NOTES: If you noticed null icons (no action icons) on the NavBar then you need to go to Settings > XY Tools > Navigation Bar > Menu (The vertical three dots) and Reset navbar icons/targets. For Navigation Ring to work, you need to clear data/data1 if you are on previous build.
TO DO LIST:
Lots of things

INSTRUCTIONS:
You need to do a full wipe (factory reset and wipe cache) if you are on a different ROM.
You need to wipe data1 and cache if you are SD booting.
You need to reinstall GAPPS after each ROM installation.
In the case you booted and all you see is black screen for a couple minutes, reboot to see if it's fix.
Initial booting can take several minutes.
Copy ROM/GAPPS into your Internal Storage on the device.
Reboot into recovery and install ROM from Internal Storage.
Full wipe can be done before or after installing ROM/GAPPS.
For SD booting, you need to make bootable SDCard first.
There are plenty of guides around.

Re: [ROM] Unofficial Xylon Acclaim 2.1.1 [XYAOSP 4.2.2] [Nook Tablet]
Amazing!
Sent from my NookTablet using xda app-developers app
Imma test it out also. Fantastic!!
---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 AM ----------
After testing for about an hour, I can name a few problems I came across. First thing I noticed was the text and the icons. They were blurry and was an eye strain for me. Second minor problem but the Nav icons are smaller than on the other builds. I tried youtube and the first video I tried didnt work. Just show's play button.
Keep up the great work!!
I'll try this out, thanks.
Just to be clear, only the top link is for the actual rom right? The source links are just for reference? I assume.
Anyone try it yet?

The download link is under Internal ROM towards the middle of the post.
Used this ROM for a day, not bad.
Love the customization. To me though, it feels a little laggy. Also i have been having tons of trouble playing youtube videos on it, both on the website and through the app. they either dont start at all or crash (and i still hear the audio, lol). sometimes they simply wont load.
another observation is that pretty much all the 4.2 ROMs i've tried have pretty bad battery life when compared to 2.3. This is unfortunate but doesnt render the tablet unusable. I'd say if you charge it every night, it is fine. Leave the tablet overnight, without charging, with wifi on (although i know it goes into sleep) the battery drops from 85 to 35 in about 8-9 hours, which is awful.
Personally I am going back to PA 3.1 for now, but will check back if development progresses.
I tried out Xylon: for a first build it works really well and is very responsive (even though I am running it off SD). The couple of problems I ran across are the same one I recently encountered on some other ROMs: e.g., MX Player out-of-control when playing some video in HW mode (even when the Player is force-stopped the audio still keeps going), System-UI crashes when switching to Tablet-UI.
I think this ROM has a lot of potential and is really fun to use.
Whenever I adb devices from my PC to NT, it says devices offline, how can I connect my PC & NT? I found some other threat about new adb on 4.2.2 but they didn't help.

You might find some helpful pointers at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35971559#post35971559.
Also, make sure that you do have the latest update of ADB (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38118551&postcount=9).
FWIW, I re-flashed Xylon ROM with cm-10.1-20121212-gapps-SDC.zip — not only does Google auto-restore now works but also I no longer have the problem of “System-UI has stopped” when switching to Tablet-UI.
been using this for 4 or 5 days now, seems pretty good to me, battery life is a lil suspect, but ive just uopdated to 6th march version, so will see how this goes
CWM Backups

6.0.2.8 is a very recent if not the latest version of CWM.

When I run the backup, the last step performs the MD5 sum and it gives an error. I had this with a backup with a different ROM as well yesterday. I didn't retry so it could have been circumstantial. I don't have this ROM installed any longer so I can't attempt another backup of it.

FWIW, the couple of times I encountered "MD5 errors" in doing backup using recovery were when I had insufficient space in the sdcard's first partition ("/boot") to accommodate the size of the needed backup.
The Rom seems to think that /sdcard directory is in the external sd card, So I can't download files from the internet (web browser) with out a microsd, it gives me an error "says no such directory." Is this normal for the Nook Tablet, any way to get around that?

Hey guys the much awaited DualBootPatcher is here for our otus don't believe me test out yourself
It can patch:
Custom kernels for multi support
ROMs so that they can be installed as secondary :victory:
Google Apps packages :silly:
SuperSU so that it can be used in other ROMs :cyclops:
xposed :laugh:
Instructions for dual booting
Before doing anything, download the Dual Boot Patcher app and install.
The patcher offers several locations for installing ROMs:
Primary: This is normally used for installing a zip to the primary ROM. It is not required, but is strongly recommended because it has code to prevent the zip from inadvertently affecting other ROMs.
Secondary: Secondary is the first multiboot installation location. It installs to the system partition. This is a good spot for installing a second ROM because it doesn't take any space away from the internal storage.
Multi-slots: There are 3 multislots: multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3. These install to the cache partition. This is specifically for devices, like the Galaxy S4, that have a massive cache partition.
Data-slots: There can be an unlimited number of data slots. These install to the data partition and eat up space on the internal storage. This is useful for devices where the system partition is nearly full and the cache partition is tiny. These slots are named "data-slot-[id]", where "id" is something you provide in the app.
Extsd-slots: There can be an unlimited number of Extsd slots. These install to the external sd partition and eat up space on the external storage. This is useful for devices where the system partition is nearly full and the cache partition is tiny and your data partition is getting full. These slots are named "extsd-slot-[id]", where "id" is something you provide in the app.
App and data sharing
DualBootPatcher very recently got support for sharing apps and their data across ROMs. Maybe sharing is somewhat of a misleading term. The feature actually makes Android load the shared apps and data from a centralized location, /data/multiboot/_appsharing. So you're not sharing apps from one ROM to another per se. The ROMs are just loading the apps from one shared location. Let me make this clearer with an analogy.
Think of the people in a company office as ROMs. You want to share with your coworkers some documents (apps). Instead of telling them to come over to your desk to see those documents (sharing apps from one ROM to another), everyone goes to the conference room to look at the documents together (loading apps from a shared location). That's how app and data sharing is implemented.
To use app sharing, follow these steps in every ROM that you want to use app sharing:
1.Install the app you want to share
2.Open DualBootPatcher and go to "App Sharing" in the navigation drawer
3. Enable individual app sharing
4. Tap "Manage shared applications" and enable APK/data sharing for the app
Reboot
When you uninstall an app that's shared, it simply becomes unshared for the current ROM. That way, other ROMs are not affected. To continue the analogy above, if you quit your job, you won't shred the documents that everybody else was looking at.
If you unshare an app's data, it will go back to using the data it had before it was shared. In other words, you leave the conference room and go back to work on your own documents at your desk.
FAQ's
Switch the ROM if something doesn't work properly?
If you have TWRP, you can switch manually by tapping Install -> Images (bottom right) -> Go to /sdcard/MultiBoot/[Your ROM]/ -> flash boot.img.
I installed a new rom and want to switch to it?
Open app, select ROMs, then select the rom you want to switch to. When the switch is successful, reboot.
Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
The easiest way is to do it from the app while booted in another ROM. Just go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the 3 dots options menu for the ROM you want to wipe, and tap "Wipe ROM".
NOTE: Don't use the recovery's built-in wiping abilities as that may delete non-primary ROMs!
Update the primary ROM?
Patch the zip for primary and flash it. The "primary" installation target is designed so that other ROMs won't be affected when you want to flash something for the primary ROM.
Update a non-primary ROM?
Patch and flash the zip exactly like how you did it the first time.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
Patch it for primary before flashing. If the zip does not wipe /cache, it is also safe to flash it directly.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for a non-primary ROM?
Just patch and flash it

How To Report Issues ?
Getlogs.zip: getlogs.zip
If a multi-booted ROM is unable to boot, logs will be needed for debugging the issue. Please reboot into recovery without shutting down the device (ie. no removing the battery u cant remove battery in moto e ) and flash the GetLogs zip. This must be done immediately following the boot failure because some logs will be lost after a reboot The zip will save many logs from /sdcard/MultiBoot and device information from /dev, /proc, and /sys to /sdcard/logs/[Date&Time].tar. Please attach this tar archive when reporting an issue.
Also, state whether the ROM reboots or hangs at the moto logo or the ROM's boot animation. If the ROM reboots, please state whether it reboots into recovery or not.
NOTE- now is supported CM13!!!!

I have not tried it, you can have stock as primary and custom as secondary.

I am a new here so dont know how to take log
I'm using the version created by chenxiaolong, download here:https://snapshots.noobdev.io The same functions as i see here..what's the difference, what are added features?
I mean, anyone with rooted+ custom recovery on any device can send logs to him and ask to get their device supported in just few days without someone porting the app, why do all this if no new/different features are added?
The best app to port to other devices with this functionality will MULTIROM officially for nexus devices, capable of running other non android OS like Firefox OS!
New World Order (NWO)
Any chances to do this with marshmallow ROMS.?
hey guys! now is official with support marshmallow.

No working for me XOSP rom surnia XT1526 Sprint
I keep getting a notification saying my sdcard is corrupted after updating ramdisk and rebooting. Then I have to reinstall the primary ROM.
Edit: seems to only happen with Chrizsuma kernel.
