Just curious if it works on our phones. I'd really love to have dual boot options for cm9 and sense.

It adds the ability to multi boot. Kind of like your computer being able to run windows and linux, this lets our phones run up to 5 different roms

I just gave it a shot -- I added all the stuff manually, but would get an error that it was unable to download the files. I ended up using a titanium backup to load the data and after that it would launch. However, when I tried installing a ROM, I would get an error that it was unable to create a new boot.img. I might try a different ROM to see if that works.
please let us know if it worked!
Hi!
I've installed the latest stock ROM for my device, and rooted. Also, I've setup everything exactly how I want it. Unluckily, my device is not supported by ClockworkMod. How can I make a working backup/clone of my Android installation?
Thanks!
What device do you have? Sometimes (usually) there are unofficial CWM ports or other recoveries

I have a iBerry Auxus AX02. It's a 7-inch ICS-running tablet from an Indian company. It's not that popular anywhere. As far as I can tell, it was manufactured in China. Also, there are no custom ROMs for it or anything. But, it can be rooted via "unlockroot" - which I have successfully done.
I know that there aren't any unofficial ports for it yet. Anyway, where can I find a list of these ports?
What other 'recoveries' can I use?
Thanks!
Read here and here. Note that the 2nd link is specific to a different device, but it helps to read more.

Hi!
Okay, I read through them, thanks! I'll get back to you on those later.
Also, a person using the same tablet as mine, has compiled a rooting guide and stuff. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620356
According to him, installing Busybox causes boot-up/hang issues. I don't have the time to confirm this, since if true I'll have to reinstall the stock ROM and spend more time setting it up.
Any ideas as to what can cause these issues? AFAIK, Busybox just installs support for Root commands into the Android shell, right? How does that affect the device?
Thanks!
Yeah, I agree with you about Busybox. I think the issue has to be with the installer; what exactly is it doing to install busybox? That will probably explain why it messes up your tablet.

Yeah, though I don't have any idea about what exactly the installer does. I'm a bit busy this week, so I'll probably install Busybox on my device in a few days and see what happens, and research a fix. Weird though, because that's the most popular Busybox installer on the market...
For s-off/unlocked users.
This will remove write protection and allow for /system read/write. After flashing you will no longer need to keep weaksauce installed as system changes will persist after reboot! I dumped this boot image from one of my M8's and tested it on another. This will allow you to install such things as boot animations and busy box etc...

What's the need for this? /system changes already stick after multiple hard reboots

As we found with the M7 and htc one max not all changes will stick... so using flar2's module gets us around that...
I had to use this in the past for such things as hacking the stock tether etc...

installing boot animation with rom toolbox now sticks :highfive:
Thanks alot man! Alot easier than horsing around with the kernel module. This just makes it easy as pie. Thanks alot
Anyway to verify it worked? I did the easy instructions and cmd prompt did it's thing and said successful with how many seconds it took and all. Guess what i mean is there any certain root apps/tweaks that didn't work before this and now work with this?
Maybe a quick list of tweaks/apps that now work because of this kernal tweak?

Hey!
It's really hard to explain my issue, but I'll try my best.
So here it goes..
My Nexus 5 keeps telling me I have a system update to download and install, so I wait for it to download and then it tells me to install the update from CM-Hammerhead-46e2abd61c to 1f023a4eca-signed.
It shows the Install update option right below, and everything seems fine till now.
When I press this Install update button, it reboots the phone, shows me an android popped open and something indicating that there're being changes which are not shown in normal reboots ofc.
The phone reboots and start, tells me it;s optimizing apps since I use Android Run-time Cache instead of Dalvik.
Now the issue is, it's not updated at all.
It shows me the same Cyan and Android version, 4.4.2 and 46e2abd61c, and when I check for update, it shows me the same thing that I have to update from CM-Hammerhead-46e2abd61c to 1f023a4eca-signed.
I tried this like 10 times and it happens over and over again.
This is bugging me for like a day now.
Any solutions to this?
Thanks.

Try to download the latest update on your PC and flash it on your phone and if that doesn't work change recoveries.

Guess they've updated it recently then. This certainly was not the case recently, because Phil threads often get asked why it doesn't work and teh answer is the /sdcard/0.
Who knows, Maybe CM finally saw the light, 12 months after everyone else? I wont hold my breath though. Until very recently, it only worked in CWM. It was written that way

Dunno. Omni says OpenDelta only works with TWRP: http://omnirom.org/general/opendelta-brings-incremental-system-updates-omni/
I've never used Delta since I build my ROMs myself
Edit: CyanDelta seems to be 3rd party, not CyanogenMod's version of OpenDelta. Does the same thing though, I guess using TWRP is most likely to work for this? But you say it only worked in CWM.. so I have no idea lol

The whole thing came about where when 4.2 came out, they moved /sdcard from /data/media/ to /data/media/0. CWM left it as /data/media - which even today, is why you cant see your nandroids taken with CWM in /sdcard
So what the updater app did was put in the updater-script /sdcard/0 as the path, leaving the /data/media mountpoint in CWM in tact... In Philz and TWRP, you would see the error in recovery log (cannot find /sdcard/0/whatever.zip) because on proper recoveries, that is actually /data/media/0/0/whatever.zip).
So Kudos if they changed it to support real recoveries instead of legacy, antiquated CWM builds.

Yeah, it's probably something related to that.. Several people I know had related issues with certain recoveries and complained about it. Solution was using a different recovery lol
Anyways, if it doesn't work for the OP in one recovery he can try another.

Hey guys,
New to the OPO, just came from the galaxy note 2 and love the phone but have an issue.
When I am in an app like Facebook and am scrolling, while I am mid scroll (haven't lifted my finger from the screen) it opens a picture or the comments section for some reason.... Anyone else having this issue and is there a possible fix?
Thank you!
Update your ROM. ROMs with older touchscreen drivers are known to cause this.
I have this problem also on 38R ... I had also that touchscreen issues like people said here after 38R update but yesterday it gone.

The term 'better' is very subjective, only you can answer that after testing out some ROMs. What do you mean by 'download mode'? Go into recovery, select backup from the main menu, name sure system, data, and boot are checked, and swipe to backup.

I like several ROMs, and there's really no point in me telling you what they are because everyone has different tastes and different needs from a ROM. I can only suggest you check a few out, read their feature sets, and try them.
