Welcome to Dual Boot Backup & Restore
A utility app for noob-dev type dual-boot system on Galaxy S4 LTE variants
=================================
DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION:
>>Dual Boot Backup V2.3a 4/1/14
Release:
Multi Boot Backup & Restore Utilities V4.0
Finally I have combined all operations into a single AROMA zip!
Functions:
-Backup for Secondary, multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3
-Restore for Secondary, multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3
-Delete backups and delete multiROMs
PLUS!!
You can restore a backup from any slot to any other!
For now you MUST:
-Patch a suitable kernel before hand corresponding to the desired slot.
Rename your backup folder to the desired slot.
Eg.
'/external_sd/dual-boot-bk/dual'
to
'/external_sd/dual-boot-bk/multi-slot-1'
Then run restore and after flash your patched kernel. Note this will also overwrite whichever secondary kernel you have backed up so you may have to flash and set two kernels.
I will improve this function in the next version
Enjoy!!

The Title of this App is pretty self explanatory. Being a user and fan of the Dual Boot mod I decided to expand upon it by creating an app which can:
>>> Backup 2ndROM to your choice of Internal Memory OR external SD card
>>> Backup with your choice of Compression or No compression.
>>> Backup by running the app from Primary OR 2ndROM (Restore only from primary ROM)
>>> Restore 2ndROM backup
=============================
PLANNED FEATURES IN FUTURE VERSIONS:
- Backup Primary ROM
-Restore EITHER Primary or 2ndROM backups to EITHER/OR Primary or 2ndROM locations... allowing you to:
-clone EITHER ROM to both locations
-swap Primary and 2ndROM positions.
=============================
Please refer to the thread for the original Dual Boot mod by @chenxiaolong if you are new to this. This app REQUIRES an understanding of Dual Boot and a working Dual Boot setup

[PATCHER][APP] Dual boot any ROM on all Galaxy S4 variants!
=============================
How it works:
I've used Tasker app factory to make an app with a GUI interface which will execute Linux terminal commands creating .tar or .tar.gz backup files in /dual-boot-bk folder which it will create in either your Internal or external memory.
The restore function will restore the tar files to the required folders.
=============================
How to use:
>>>Backup
#1.Simply install the app on either primary or secondary ROM and run the app.
#2. Tap the backup button and the chose your storage location and compression level.
#3. Wait for the operation to complete!
Your backup will be created in a folder /dual-boot-bk/ in three files:
dualsys.tar
dualdata.tar
dual-kernel.tar
To delete your backup simply delete this folder /dual-boot-bk/ using a file manager.
If you manually move your backup tar files after creating a backup from one location to another (say to your computer hard drive) just be sure to move them back to your phone in a folder named:
/dual-boot-bk/
Before you want to do a restore so the app will detect it. (This folder can be in your internal memory or extrenal SD card).
>>> Restore
You can only restore when running this app from your PRIMARY ROM.
#1. Make sure you have your three backup .tar files in the expected /dual-boot-bk folder on your Internal Memory or external SD Card.
#2. Tap the restore button.
#3. Wait until the operation has completed and you are done!
=============================
>>>IMPORTANT
#1. You CAN restore a backup onto a Primary ROM which has just been clean installed and DOESN'T yet have the necessary dual-boot folders... My app will create them if necessary.
#2. The secondary kernel will be backed up and restored BUT you may not have set your primary ROM kernel using 'dual boot switcher' app my app should detect if this file doesn't exit and warn you to do this.

Sorry I don't understand. You don't have to move anything back.
If you move your backup to say your hard drive then you need to move out back otherwise the backup it makes is in the folder that the app expects

Oh ok I understand now. .. Yes you are correct you should rename the /dual-boot-bk folder to something or move the .tar files to another folder if you wish to make a new backup and keep the old one.
The files in /dual-boot-bk will be overwritten if you run another backup

hello.i open this thread to show you how to solve a2sd not working on custom roms so you people can use your favorite rom with all the features and rom developers can continue developing of their rom and make them more and more better.
First of all the reason why a2sd dont work and ext partition doesnt mount:
for these feautures and others that dev gives as with his rom,the kernel ramdisk is modified (by xda kitchen or "by hand").so if this boot.img is not flashed into your phone,those feautures wont work.every custom rom have her boot.img into the flashable rom.zip.the thing that our rom creators and devs dont know(cause all phones are not the same) is that the boot.img in the zip doesn flash!.our phone cant flash boot.img from recovery and the reason is because in this phone kernel and recovery are in the same partition and not separately partition like most phones.
The solution:
REMEMBER THAT YOU DO IT WITH YOUR OWN RISK!
its just very simple:the only thing you have to do is to flash the boot.img that comes with your rom and the only way to do that succesfull is with Odin.(this ofcourse will give the custom bin counter 1 up because its a modified and not stock kernel).also have in mind that you have to flash it once.if for any reason you want to reflash your rom,you just do wipe data etc and reflashing the rom.zip.its not necesary to reflash the kernel(boot.img) again.its still there and will only change if you flash another boot.img or stock firmware with Odin.
So i will give two options.
1.download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar from TermaRomGR threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520167(the mods in all of these kernel are about the same).flash it with Odin in pda field (first try without wipe anything or reflashing stock firmware first.just boot in download mode,flash with odin and reboot,it should work ok.DONT FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR ROM FIRST!JUST IN CASE!).reboot may take more time dont worry.when phone is on your ext partition should be mounted.you can try with terminal simulator:
su
a2sd check
if everything is ok you can remove your dalvik cache to your sd if you want for more internal memory free space:
su
a2sd cachesd
the phone will reboot.it will late to reopen just be patient and then your internal memory will be almost empty.but have in mind that this partition is not as fast asthe internal memory so some apps or games maybe slow a bit.
2.the other option is to flash the kernel(boot.img) that come with your custom rom.how to do that (thanks to Doky):
copy the boot.img that is inside the zip of the rom you are using.
download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar
find in web the program total commander for windows
open t commander and in left window navigate to my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar file and get into it.in the right window find the boot.img of your rom.drag it and drop it to the left window so it replace the boot.img into the .tar file with yours.its ready.just flash it with Odin.
Some important things too that i notice from my experiments:
with busybox 1.18 your rom will not boot after nove dalvik cache to sd
it will work nice with 1.17 but its not suitable for people who want to run v6 script.for those who want to run v6 you must download busybox instaler from market and install v1.19.2.if after that you have problems with wifi try another version (1.19.3 or 1.19.4).and report back what works ok and what not so all people together can find the best setup.
Please tell to the devs of your roms to read this thread so they learn about the solution to this problem so they can create even better and better roms
I love you. I'll try this tomorrow.

Why do i have SD Card Remove Problem then when i boot back i was in the Welcome Screen where my info of google account is being ask. I skipped it then check the settings, my account was just there still. Also having this Turning off by itself problems. This was just started when i begin using a2sd supported ROMS. But when i'm just on stock or non-a2sd roms it work fine. Maybe its the boot.img?

Oh, so I can take a stock firmware from Doky73's thread and modify it thru xda kitchen and change the kernel to include just init.d support (I kind of hate a2sd at the moment)? What about ext4 file system support? Is this possible?
By xda kitchen you mean the one by dsixda, right?
just like to ask if a2sd's low memory setting would conflict with [email protected] scripts?
coz after installing a2sd in my phone with [email protected] script, i sometimes notice that memory usage would reach 240+?

1.yes its necesary to have an ext2 or ext3 partition.you can create it with skin1980 CWM recovery in advance/partition sdcard.a partition 500Mb is enough.(before do it backup everything from your sdcard to your pc because this procedure will erase everything in your sdcard.)
2.for Odin google it Odin3-v1.85.Here is how to do it:
1. you put my tar in pda field and the other remain empty(check only "Auto reboot" and "F.reset time")
2. Now turn off your Samsung Galaxy Y (just for make sure is completely off, remove the battery for a few sec and put that back)
3. Press Volume[-] + Home + Power to boot in Download Mode
4. Hold the buttons until a warning screen with choise show up.
5. Select Continue (Volume[+]), then it`s go to download mode
6. Connect the cellphone (via USB cable) to PC, wait until ODIN detect the device.
7. Click Start
8. Wait until ODIN give feedback respon PASS
it`s mean the flashing proccess is complete. Samsung Galaxy Y will auto reboot.
9. unplug the USB cable from PC/Laptop
Thanks bro, I have 2 questions more,
before flash your PDA is it necessary to go back to stock rom?
Currently I'm using V6 with busy box v1.18 on hybrid2.1, should I change it to v1.19.2?
Your link for v1.19.2 in terma rom thread is not working.

How can I restore single apps (and/or their data) from a TWRP backup?
Use TitaniumBackup, it supports TWRP! In Titanium Backup, open up the menu and select "Extract from Nandroid backup...". It will list all your TWRP and CWM backups and allow you to restore as many apps and their data as you want.
Even though all TWRP backup files carry the extension .win, they are either tar archives or filesystem images. System, data, cache and .android_secure are backed up as tar archives or gnu-zipped tar archives if compression is enabled. You can rename those .win files to .tar (.tar.gz if compressed) and extract them like a regular archive. Boot and recovery partitions are backed up as .img files using dd.

I have tried to test all recovery features and they all seem to work. I successfully flashed several different ROMs and performed backups and restores. However, there could still be bugs lurking somewhere - if you find one please report it!

Disclaimer
Do not install this if you don't know what you are doing. Incorrect flashing of a recovery can lead to a hard brick! Bugs in the recovery could result in data loss so always have a backup! I am in no way responsible for anything you do to your phone and offer no guarantees.
For Developers
TWRP has an optional companion app called GooManager. It offers a frontend for the goo.im archive which hosts ROMs and the gapps. Unlike CWM and ROM Manager, it is completely free, developers can upload their ROMs to goo.im and users can easily flash them with GooManager. It would be awesome if developers started uploading their ROMs there!
To take screenshots inside the running recovery, use adb to dump the framebuffer and then use ffmpeg to convert the raw image to a jpeg like this:

This is a Recovery, not a ROM!
A recovery is a small bootable operating system on a seperate partition on your device. Changing your recovery does not in any way affect your running system. And when booted in the recovery you don't have access to WiFi or Bluetooth anyway.
The reason FeaMod does not work with CM9 is because it was compiled with a wrong list of partition sizes. I compiled this using arco's CM9 repository, so it has exactly the same settings, kernel config etc. as the CM9-compatible CWM that arco compiled.
looks awssum shall try flashing an xperimental.zip

You must make a backup with teamwin recovery. Maybe you can copy your CWM Backup into the Teamwin recovery folder for restore your backup.
Sorry for my english.

Awesome thanks for your work
Sent from my GT-I9001 using Tapatalk
wow...nice recovery... thanks for your work!!
This is RECOVERY it has nothing to do with any of the ROMS !!! RESTORING BACKUP from other RECOVERIES is not recommended, it will end up bricking your phone! NEVER RESTORE BACKUP WITH DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF RECOVERY, EVEN IF IT IS MADE FROM SAME SOURCE.
RECOVERY cannot be "compatible" or "incompatible" with ANY of ROM distro's.
Restoring someone's nandbackup (CM9 with arco recovery, for example) on own phone is other story.

No, it was developed from scratch by TeamWin. It is also open source and completely free unlike CWM touch which you have to buy.
You can read more at the official project website: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2
F**k the system . AMAZING WORK!!!!!!
Yay!
Awesome work! I was waiting for a touch recovery!
btw, can we flash CWM over this afterwards, just in case i want to restore a CWM backup later on?

Yes, you can change recoveries without a problem.
For arco's CWM flash this zip file and then reboot the recovery. Later in CWM you can just flash the TWRP zip, reboot recovery and you're in TeamWin Recovery again.
This is also how I suggest people migrate their backups (if really necessary): Install and reboot into CWM, restore a CWM backup, install and reboot into TWRP, perform a backup, repeat.
Works great, just installed Arcos build 4 with your Recovery.
Awesome!

hmmm i cant explain because im not using another script, im just using mount2sd (just delete the script from directory /system/etc/init.d) and install ungaze script.
S2E = return the data and dalvik cache to internal memory, delete S2E.apk from directory /system/app and then install ungaze script

I would be interested to try this, but I am a bit scared of getting bootloops. There seem to have been a few reports of that already, so maybe I would be better to go for another, more tested script?
I am currently on stock ROM with stock kernel, rooted and using link2SD with a 2nd FAT32 partition. What would I need to do to transfer everything across? (I assume install a new kernel [which one?] and create a new ext partition; how would I go about moving all the apps currently on my FAT32 partition [and their data, which is on the internal memory] to the ext partition?)

Very important: note 0:make a nandroid backup.
First backup sdcard,backup all your apps with titanium backup,delete all apps except the essentials,then move the essentials to internal memory,format sdcard and then partition your sdcard through clockworkmod recovery(advanced»partition),then install the script and then go to recovery and then install new kernel like cranium kernel #2 ,if you want to be on stock
Or else after partition directly go to jaggy ROM or cm9 flash and then install the script(delete all other script in system/etc/init.d)
And then finally,if no bootloops enjoy! Or else just do a nandroid restore-bootloops are not a big deal,if you can go to recovery and have a nandroid backup.
Always wipe data partition or factory reset in recovery for installing the script or ROM

2.Wipe data/factory reset.
3.Wipe cache partition.
4.Go to advanced
5.Wipe dalvich cache.
6.Go back.
7.Go to mounts and storage
8.Format /boot,/cache,/system,/sd-ext(If you have created any partition)
Dont format or touch anything else
9.Go back.
10. Select Install zip from sd card.
11. Select your rom. After install
12. Reboot system now.
13. Done
Original thread is located here: CM11 aka KITKAT 4.4.2
Direct download for RC4 CM11 RC4 with recovery
Direct download for RC3 CM 11 RC3
Direct Download for RC2 : CM11 RC2
Direct Download RC 1 with changelogs: CM11 RC1
Direct Download Beta 5 with changelogs:CM 11 Beta 5
Direct Download Beta 4 with changelogs:CM11 Beta 4
Direct download for new build with changelogs:New Build (GPS still not working)
Now flash the gapps from here : Gapps for cm11
For RC3 and RC4 you need awesome recovery older version.. Have attached the rcovery check the end of the post..
It is a special modified TWRP Recovery known as aw3som3 recovery.. This recovery increases our system partition.
Many users flash the aw3som3 recovery via app but its not a good process as this recovery changes the partition.
How to flash the aw3som3 recovery.
1. First fash THIS via your present recovery.
2. Now copy the downloaded recovery in a folder where adb and fastboot drivers are installed.
3. Connect your device in fastboot mode.
4. Open command prompt and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img(If your recovery is named as recoveryv1 then instead of recovery.img type recoveryv1.img)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. After succesful recovery flashing, again flash the attachment on first step then flash the rom.
You should freshly install RC1 and New build dont just flash over beta 4 or beta 5
Clean flash RC2
RC1 and New build has enough system memory for the gapps to work..
So no need to delete anything..
Installation instructions for RC2
1. Flash the rom. Remain in recovery.
2. Just after flashing rom flash : This
3. Flash gapps
You wont face any sign in errors..
GPS is not working in RC1.. Some users reported it to be working..
Installation instructions for beta 4 and beta 5 :
There are two methods:
1.Before Install
Open the zip.
Delete following files from rom zip:
term.apk
email.apk
exchange2.apk
browser.apk
cmfilemanger.apk (optional)
Now flash the rom and after first boot of the rom then flash the gapps..
2.After install
1.Open Titanium backup
2.Tap on Backup/restore option (Before uninstall it asks to take backup if you can backup the app then uninstall it)
3.Tap on the apps listed above.
4.Select uninstall
5.Done
If facing sign in error mount your partiton from settings -> extras-> tick on mount /data to /SD ext reboot then manually install Google Play services(Beta 4 and Beta 5 only).
You can find that in gapps zip in system/priv-app named prebuilt GMScore.apk like this..
Make sure your are on latest TWRP or philz or whichever recovery which mounts and supports ext mounting..
Check here for Philz Recovery : Philz Recovery
Check here hor TWRP : TWRP Recovery
Check here for CWM : CWM Recovery
There is no option to enable int2ext in RC2 like previous builds so you need ti flash the script.
If you are a user who doesnt install use or install many apps but want the memory increase:
Just go in settings-> Extras->Tick on /mount /sd ext option->Restart your device.(Not for RC2 as there is no option to enable ext))
If you are using many apps then refer this: (Its int2ext)Script or else you wont be able to download apps from playstore.
The reason for not able to install apps from playstore
The inbuilt script is int2ext+ Which leaves /data to /data (The reason and explanation in detail Check Here)
List of all scripts working check here: Cronmod Scripts
How to copy paste scripts and list of scripts : Check here
If you dont want to do any copy and pasting of scripts just follow this steps:
1. Open the rom zip .. Dont extract
2. Go to system/etc/init.d
3. Now copy the above script in the location given in 2nd step.. It will ask for replace replace it..(Not applicable on RC2)
4. Now flash the rom.
5. Done
You want to oc(Overclocking) refer this: OC kernal for beta 4
OC for beta 5/RC1: OC Kernel for beta 5/RC1 Instagram is not working in this OC Kernel.
OC for RC2 : OC Kernel for RC2
OC for RC4 : OCKernel for RC4
Partition for oc:
SD main-> SD ext (512 mb or more)-> SD cache (65 mb)
All partitions should be primary
SD ext and SD cache partition type should be same.
Ex if SD ext is ext4 then sd cache should also be ext4.
Hit Thanks guys
It will encourage me to make more helpful guides
If facing sign in error install play sevices attached below..

You need to delete the script from from rom zip then flash the rom.. the reasonn behind deleting the script is there will 2 scripts in init.d folder one in the rom and other made from m2sd this will lead to a bootloop so before using m2sd you need to delete the inbuilt script first.

So I need to first delete the m2sd script from zip then flash the rom then install m2sd app and using terminal emulator increase the internal memory right na

and if i change scripts, it will not boot.
this is my experience just after flashing the rom when no apps were there.

The best way I will say is copy the int2ext script in the ROM zip then flash the ROM.. You can check in settings -> app you would see increased memory cz I m using this method and didn't face any issues ..

when i had installed December update (unlocked bootloader & magisk installed) i flashed the new rom, installed decrypt.zip yet the phone got encrypted on boot. Later i formatted data and flashed decrypt.zip and the phone booted normally.
Its kind of two way procedure. Try it. There is nothing wrong in experiment unless you haven't taken backup.
I'll flash as soon as i go home & let you know the status.

when i had installed December update (unlocked bootloader & magisk installed) i flashed the new rom, installed decrypt.zip yet the phone got encrypted on boot. Later i formatted data and flashed decrypt.zip and the phone booted normally.

backup means your personal data, apps, contacts, internal storage.
TWRP wont be gone after flashing. The phone works fine even after its encrypted. You need to flash decrypt.zip to get internal storage access in TWRP . And for overall smoothness of the device.

thank you very much for the info
Guys ... Use PBRP Recovery.. It is based on TWRP...
It automatically patches forced encryption, after flashing the firmware file...
But just to make sure flash decrypt.zip too ...
So I did really dumb error... I flashed OTA(edited updater-script), then flashed decrypt.zip and flashed Magisk-v18.0.zip(this is what I shouldn't do)... and now my phone is encrypted
and my nandroid backup that I just make is on internal storage... so now it's already encrypted(or it isn't?) and no longer be able to use...
Is there any way I can decrypt back my phone?
my custom recovery/twrp encrypted as well
I got my nandroid backup few days ago on my computer

I don't think there is a way to decrypt your phone without losing data...
Best way is restore from your nandroid backup...

uh, the one that is encrypted is on /data I'm right?
my internal storage/internal SD which is on /data/media is not encrypted right? then I still can copy my NANDroid backup?
error displayed 7 in twrp.
When edit the script and rezip firmware then go to twrp then error 7 displayed that the zip file is crupted.so get me solution

Do not unzip the file.
Right click on the file, open archive. Edit the updater script. Save it. Better to use 7Zip.

I am not sure exactly, which partitions are encrypted. But yes I think internal storage on /data/media is not encrypted...
But if you open TWRP then you will get a message to decrypt your device... DONT do this ! It will wipe your internal storage too, even if it is not encrypted...
If you want to copy your nandroid backup, then boot up your ROM and then transfer files using MTP to your computer..

Did you use WinRAR ? Do one thing...
After extracting zip, and editing the script, go to the root of your firmware folder, select all files then add to archive. Select archive format as zip and keep the lowest compression possible...
While flashing, disable zip verification. This should work... Otherwise try the method by @Ajeyvm

Whenever i restart my phone i get that bug report. I clear it & use the device as usual. Evrything else is working fine. No need to revert back unless u r facing some major issue.
