Can I do that with the bootloader? I don't want to stop using CyanogenMod.

After MultiRom is installed you can switch on boot as to which OS you want... Any compatible Android, Ubuntu Touch or FF OS.
Select which one you want as default... When you boot up you get some few seconds (like 8 or ten) to select something besides the default.
So long as your Android install is running a kexec-hardboot patch kernel, then you are good. Check the article I linked above for all details. One of the kernels they link to there should install on CM and then you are golden.
Can I use this on my moto g? The article talks about the nexus 4.

LOL - I guess that is my bad for assuming you have a Nexus.
I can't really comment on Moto. I guess you would compile your own build of Ubuntu Touch for your phone model???
Install multirom and check whether The ubuntu touch is enabled or not. On my nexus he did everything Aline!

Hello!
Do you know if GLTools is working on Amazon Kindle Hdx? Since I don't have any recovery installed on my rooted Thor, I don't think it's a good idea to experiment. If it works without bricking the device it would be amazing!
I tried it.

Hi,
I'm just a RPi2 user and I discover something really interesting for Raspberry Pi series, specially for not expert people!
There is a useful tool called Berryboot that allow to easy install many Operating Systems on the MicroSD of the Raspberry.
If you are interesting in Berroboot, you can download it here: BerryBoot official website
Here a video of BerryBoot in action:

You can find many videos on YouTube. :good:
Thanks button is easy to click.

How can I update OpenELEC in BerryBoot?
It does download the update, but it does not install the update.

I don't know, I enabled AUTO Update in configuration panel.
The other point is: how to overclock OpenELEC under Berryboot?
Did it update yours when enableling "auto update" ?
Mine just download the update, but fails to install. Probably because it registred that it has "wrong" kernel.
I did try to manually replace the system image as suggested in OpenElec forum, but it does not boot then.
I have the same issue. I want to update Openelec 5.0.3 to latest beta 5.95...but neither auto or manual work....with Berryboot, it seems to lock the kernal some how.
I want to multi boot between Openelec, RetroPie, and one or more other OS's....but berryboot seems to be problematic with updating them. I tried NOOBS but I could not get it to boot to any OS at all. Any other multiboot loaders or suggestions?

I think BerryBoot is better because:
- It is automated, no terminal command line required
- One MicroSD with ALL Operating Systems, no need of USB storage devices..
- Boot and install every pre-compiled OSs available
- You can compile your "personal" version of any ARM OS and boot in berryboot
... plus it's really easy to use. like the script variant mentioned before in form of a link, you can use usb for the whole os which delivers more stability if you overclock the pi where sd cards don't like that and your os get damaged over time in an overclocked environment.
BerryBoot 2 on Raspberry Pi2 w/ Kali and Adafruit 3.5 LCD
Hi, I have Berryboot running a few distro's including Kali. However the small LCD screen doesn't seem to work when using Berryboot.
I tried getting the LCD to work many times w/ Berryboot and can't seem to get it to work.
Anyone else try this?

Does anyone know where there is a repository for Raspberry Pi2 / Berryboot (Squashsf) distros? Converting them seems like a pain.

The official berryboot images that are used for the network setup are available on sourceforge, but are quite outdated.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/berryboot/files/os_images/
I found the process of converting the official images to squashfs not too tiresome using virtualized Linux Mint. However, some distros, like the latest version of Ubuntu Mate and OSMC are not compatible with berryboot. Having wasted some hours, I can say that squashfs limits some OS features (eg. updates, partition behaviour) and performance. On the whole, if you are serious about doing something on each of the distros, then the best approach is to use separate SD cards for each distro, convenient and offers full OS functionality. Otherwise, berryboot is a good way to just check out the various OS available, provided it is compatible with squashfs.
Thank you so much for the reply. Ya, considering the limitations, I think I'll just stick with individual SD cards.. It was more out of convenience... But I am constantly updating and changing something, so prob not best method. Thanks

Hello,
Using RPi2. This works on my 16GB Samsung SD works fine but it won't work on my Sony 64GB. I can use "Image Writer" to write a bootable image to the 64GB SD and works but for some reason I can't get the BerryBoot to boot. I used SDFormatter and confirmed it's FAT32. Any one having similar issues?
Thx

How did you get that theme?
Hi.
Whilst still on 5.0.2 I removed the stock browser on my rooted device.
I have since seen that there are a few things you can do on the stock browser which you can't with other internet browsers, for example, scrolling through text using the volume buttons on the side, so would quite like to reinstall.
I'm now on 6.0.
Is there a repository, or some other place, where I can reinstall the Stock Browser which came installed on my honor 7 phone?
Build is PLK-L01C432B380
Many Thanks,
M.
*******************************
OK, I have discovered that the stock browser is no longer available in marshmallow anyway.
*******************************
Nice thread, thank you.
I am interested as well in a way to install the stock browser in the current marsmallow rom.
Does anybody know where we can find it?
Any of you have access to it?
Thank you in advance.

All honor devices (running EMUI 4) come with chrome as stock browser, so you just install it from google play
