[Q] How to have a dual boot with 2 roms? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How can I accomplish this? I want to run both oxygen and ics at the same time.

Whenever you want to switch, make a backup and use that whenever you want to flash back.

Or to answer your question... you cant

Can't run 2 roms simultaneously,, if that's what you mean. There is am app called boot manager, and you can run up to 5 roms from SD. Its in the market, I believe, but can also be found in the evo forum (Themes and Apps subform)

Audio quality

What rom would you say has the sound quality that the stock inspire has. I tried cm7s and miui's and the sound is not great. Dsp manager doesn't help much.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Did you flash the audio fix when running CM7 or MIUI?
Yeah but still sounds the same
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
I'm running cm7 and it sounds just like stock, try flashing a rom that is based off the inspire, and not one that is based off of desire hd. See if that solves your issue.
Ok well if your cm7 sounds like stock then where was that located so I can try it

Everything is there. Well after flashing the rom I would go and flash the newest kernel. Other than that you will be set!

Download from the first post (op). I personally prefer the bfs one.
Once downloaded booting into recovery. Select instal from SD card, to go to downloads folder and install. Then reboot!
Some people clear cache and dalvic but some dont.
O when your ready you can also try the new recovery. Link in my sig. Alot of us ninjas are using it.

Have you tried changing radio and ril? Also people, including me, have had major luck changing the apn.
Btw this stuff is not just on ninja people do it on all roms lol
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Haven't tried it. Sound is still weird kinda scratchy and staticy.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
What radio do u use? You may wanna try a new one
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA Premium App
Before you jump ship on a rom please explore the other things such as the apn fix and changing radios and rils. It could be those things in your area that needs to be fixed. Dont blame the rom until you try those. I do them everytime I flash a new ninja update. Been with this rom for a while and never had an issue. Give these things a shot!

Im not worried about the signal bars. Id rather have good sound quality lol

You have to flash a kernel that supports overclocking if you want to overclock.

False. Unless it changes in the last week or two, no it is not.

It depends in device I think. I remember you from Evo forums. CM kernal for Evo supported mild OC, thanks to Toast. But Nexus CM kernal hasn't OC. Maybe that is what you were remembering.

You are probably right. I thought I had tried it once I flashed cm7 but I may have already flashed netarchy. Not missing my EVO at all. The slightly smaller keyboard is taking some time to get used to though. Thanks for the clarification Matt.

I'm using the nexus mod ROM on ICS.
Never flash a galaxy s ii ROM. However, the Tmobile galaxy s ii and our phone are so similar we can flash stuff between (that blaze 4g flash was meant for the t mobile phone).
I'm not sure about LTE. I'm betting it does work, you'll just have to flash and see. The first boot will take a very long time. I'm running this flash, I can confirm it won't brick. But I would still suggest making a nandroid backup.
