Hi, I saw a portal topic earlier about the S4 being dual bootable so is it possible for our hovs?
It is possible. But someone would have to develop it.

dual boot
Yes it is quite possible. The app is called boot manager and there is a tutorial on Youtube on how to find out the variables it will ask for. This will install a ROM onto your sd card and allow a dual boot. You will have to be rooted and have CWM recovery. It's a pretty awesome app.
umm u need the kernel to support dual boot
just an app wont do it ya know
only good for bricking

Hi devs,
today morning it was news on the xda portal, that it is possible to have 4 ROMs installed on the Droid Incredible, and to choose which one you want to boot up.
Here is the thread
I hope somebody will be interested, and we get at least a dualboot. Would be nice especially, that there is the Ubuntu project now.
The only problem is, that we don't have 8GB internal storage, but we have sdcard (where the Ubuntu runs from to)
I will delete this thread as soon as a dev makes an other one for making the development happen.

yes, it's possible, but it's a bit tricky.
but this way we could have a Sense, a CM and Ubuntu on our DHD at the same time Wouldn't it be nice?

you are right, it is the case with Incredible, but you can run Ubuntu natively on your DHD and it uses your sdcard, so it would be possible to install the ROMs there

But wait a second! You can run it in a virtual machine in Ubuntu.

I was kidding about w7, but multi boot would be great! Dhd has more than enough internal memory

IF we did get this ported to the dhd, would it be good to go for an inspire user like me? or would it take some more dev time to also port it for the inspire. I'm still not technically aware of what dhd and inspire's differences are..
EDIT: also, are the inspire and dhd's internal memory the same?
That's great idea!!
The desire HD have enough internal memory to have cm7 and sense at the same time.
Cmon devs!

did you use CWM recovery v3.0.8?
and maybe we need to edit the apk to
Yeah, this would be awsome.. Hope someone can make it work on DHD.. Maybe check with the Droid dev and see if he has any pointer´s...

Hi Guys,
I need a help with rooting my new Chinese Phone. Official name is 820.
It's a 1 GHz Rheastone processor with Android 4.1.1. More details here in attachment.
Any ideas which app should I use to root this non-branded phone?
Also can you advise a custom ROM?
Any help appreciated.

I've ordered the same phone and i'm going to try and root it when it gets to me.
Have you tried app caled xray?

No, not yet. I was waiting for some advise. Actually the reason why I want to root it is mainly the poor battery life. I'm hoping to freeze some unnecessary apps and processes. Anyway thanks for the hint. I was planning on trying One Click Root.
From my experience one click root does not work on chiniese phones (at least those which i got). GL - i hope you have some succes!

System recovery needed.
Hi Guys,
Does anybody have a system recovery file for this phone? I didn't make one for myself and now my system is broken and I have no options for recovery.
Any help would be highly appreciated.

you're right I think, dual boot will make our phone slowly, cause it has a little internal memory.. it's what I think cmiiw

it wont make the phone slow..actually we can boot it smoothly from externalsd if we've faster one,class 10 is excellent..advantage is we can use a stable rom for normal use and at the same time we can taste the latest jelly bean...its explained in our little bro galaxy s plus forum..there is some method of partitioning and only we need is a kernel supporting it..

"galaxy W kernel devs. Ever try to develop multiboot kernel but it's problem on internal storage and our RAM not support for it"
I forget why our RAM not support for it..
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium
We should make a modded RAMdisk to enable multiboot in the principal kernel, and place the other rom in a ext3-4 sd partition.
Our RAM is as same as I9001 so I don't see why we can't do it.

Hey, I have a T-mobile Galaxy S3 running on rootbox 4.2.2 and CWM recovery installed. I want to know if my phone compatible to run dual boot.
If yes, please leave me a link to the tutorial post. Thanks for reading.
No. Only by juggling backups with recovery.
I wish that they would make a multi-boot recovery like what they have for the Droid RAZR... While that was born out of necessity, I liked the ability to have up to 4 seperate ROM installs at a time - a LOT.

how to dual boot ??
and ubuntu image available out there????
You would need a kernel for that with kexec enabled. Then a rom and recovery that supports multiboot.

So far it seems people on the Nexus have got it down pretty good (Link).
Haven't yet seen a succesful dual boot on HTC yet.
Here's something that looks promising, but use at your own risk:

I'll add some more links to helpful threads in a bit.
