It can see CM 12 backup because I have put them into the zip file. So when u flash the zip the backup will automatically extract to correct DIR...
That dual boot system different. That was have only one system partition. And My one have 3 new partitions. On that system I tried lot of times. But sometimes not get worked. I don't know why... Maybe my fault. I have tried CM 12 on that. On that u said guide I cannot switch back to other rom after installing the CM12 untill format the system... My one have New recovery. So Your phone will get two recovery modes. And much more...
That's why my Dual Boot system was different from that guide.
Try my Dual Boot system. You will feel it...

Oh for gods sake..everyone now a days is the XDA police. Why dont you let the moderators decide why the thread is here and not there?
Why not just thank a developer for doing something that you neither have inclination nor the calibre or the talent to do or understand. Why not just say "OK cool...dual boot system...nice..I'll try it out..maybe I'll see something different from the 'thread already posted there'" instead of *****ing about it and asking for explanations like you own this forum!

Yes We can install any... But if you flash any New Rom as Second rom Please remember to change the Updater Script Partition paths and partition paths of boot.img of new ROM...
Table will be Like this
Second Rom System Partition = mmcblk0p30
Second Rom Data Partition = mmcblk1p2
Second Rom Cache Parition = mmcblk1p3

I've Moto G3 "XT1550" with Lineage OS (ver. 14.1-20170608) my phone suddenly couldn't boot so I installed older room without formatting data partition the phone worked but most functions are corrupted !
So backed up the data partition with recovery then downloaded latest Lineage version and Installed it after formatting data and system partitions .. the phone worked! :laugh:
Now I decided to recover data partition with recovery I did it but phone stucks on boot animation ! Now I want to recover data partition without losing the system again, what can I do?
Hi, I bought a new Xiaomi Redmi 5 Pro Global as one of the phones that support MultiRom, to replace my broken LG G3.
For MultiRom I have a Samsung 64GB class10 sdcard that I had partitioned into two partitions, one vfat for data and one ext4 for external roms.
On LG G3 with any Rom I had absolutely no problem having both partitions recognized in recovery mode (naturally I had to use Multirom recovery). But on Whyred only the first partition is recognized in any recovery, and that's a huge problem with MultiRom as I cannot select the second partition to install my external roms.
Moreover, when I try to use the partition SDcard option (only supported in TWRP 3.2.2 and Redwolf), the card is partitioned only into the first partition, and the second one always returns error 134.
I'm very disappointed at that, and I don't know what to do. I tried several roms as primary, MIUI (unfortunately I was stupid enough to let my phone update so I'm stuck only to anti4 roms), RRemix etc, but nothing helps.
Any ideas are welcome, since I even consider selling my phone and it's only two weeks old (I unlocked the bootloader only a few days ago).
I found my old nexus 7 in a cupboard a few weeks ago, the usb charging port wasnt in good shape but i managed to get twrp and DotOS android 9 installed via adb before the port finally stopped working. I dont use any gapps. Luckily i am able to charge the nexus wirelessly.
I don't want to repartition the system partition in case i can't install a new rom etc. Are there other android 9 roms that install on the small system partition size? Or is it possible to repartition and install android 10 roms without a usb cord?

buy a cheap sd card, load these zips onto the sd card using another phone
repartition:
TOOLS - Google Drive
rom choose the build as follows:
Somewhere In the lineage os zip file name
flo = Nexus 7 2013 Wifi
deb = Nexus 7 2013 LTE)
[ROM][flo|deb][UNOFFICIAL][LineageOS 20.0]

oh sorry didnt dig into the google searches much.
as repartition will wipe everything on the device, it will be impossible to transfer the rom to the tablet afterwards and so you can not flash the rom, bricking the device.
so well just forget android 10 and other stuff. it is impossible, treat it as no other roms than android 9 had been developed for the device.
you can install google apps from this
Google Installer (Android)
Install Google apps on Xiaomi devices
