Can i install roms on System 1, who and how? pls help, i dont want to break my phone, i 've LiquidSmooth but on System 3, i need more space and the only way its installing on system 1..
Who other roms can i install on system 1, and who are requirement? thx for your help :good::cyclops:
Yes, you can. In fact, I am using just System 1 (AOSB) as my daily ROM.
I don't know if this is required, but I'm always doing the following:
1. Format /system, /data, /cache
2. Wipe System, Cache, Dalvik Cache
3. Install ROM
4. Install GApps
I never had any problems since.
Goodluck mate!
Cheers,
Rae
I have never used any other system other than system 1 as daily driver..i don't know y ppl are so scared to flash..same time two years back we didn't even have a recovery on boot and still used to flash roms courtesy rdavisct, alteredlikeness, jimbridgman n co..this whole concept of multiple systems has made things more complicated than before it seems

Thanks for the additional info.
Anyways, I never install BMM after flashing ROMs because it auto-installs after you press back from Install from Zip. Or maybe we just have different experiences regarding this.

Sorry to hear that.
So, are you saying that after you installed a ROM in System 1, you force-installed BMM again through System Keeper?
I think you need to FXZ back to stock ICS, then root, then install BMM from the market again.
I think I had the same experience back when I first got this phone and was still experimenting on stuffs.
Anyways, do you know how to FXZ back to stock ICS? There's a guide on how to do that here:

You SHOULD follow every step mentioned on the thread, and also download the correct FXZ for your phone.

Just ignore the part where I insist you should download the AT&T FXZ for your phone. That part is for my phone only.

Dude you can flash ROM's on System 1 but please be careful as it will delete all other data on the other systems.
One more thing if your using altreds CM 11 use the BaNkS minimal gapps, It's not a problem to flash on the system 1, the thing is a failed flash can sometimes lead to you needing a FXZ, so just be careful on which ROM your flashing. :good:
I have little bit confusion. Please guide if these steps are correct:
1. Using BMM, format system 1 partition, data, cache.
2. Clean/wipe data, cache, battery, dalvik
3. Install ROM and GAPPs in system 1
4. system keeper > keep/install BMM
Are these steps correct?
Another question is if I want to install only one ROM in system 1 and want to use all available space for this setup then how to setup the partitions with maximum available space? Or I don't need to setup partitions?

No need to set partition sizes on system 1, that's solely for multi-booting ROMs on systems 3-6. Everything else is good though.

Thanks for the info, that was really helpful
But one confusion, I use BMM for flashing ROMs. And in case of BMM, we have to set partitions for system, data and cache. How to do that partitioning step in case if we want to flash ROM in the system 1 ? Won't we have to specify the sizes for all of those partitions?
Another question is, how to fully clean up the system 1 and free up whole ROM space before starting system 1 setup? I mean can I clean everything which came from factory before flashing on the system one to get as big as possible size of internal ROM for the system 1 setup? How much space we can get by doing that? Right now it shows around 2 GB available for user (apps and data) in the 4GB ROM of the Atrix 2, how much would it show in case of custom ROM flashing by freeing up whole space?

System 1 gets partitioned by flashing the FXZ so it's not necessary to do it with BMM. The best way to clean up system for flashing is to flash the FXZ first, then root and install BMM, etc. You can also use BMM to format system, data, cache and dalvik cache if you haven't created partitions for other systems. The only reason you will ever need to create partitions with BMM is to flash on systems 3-6.

Oh, I thought BMM will do it on sys 1 as well. I used sys 3 & 4 just to try out various ROMs without risking the stock system so that I can know which ROM suites me and later I can cleanup the whole system and put that ROM of my liking in the main system.
I am not familiar with FXZ method and it seems more complicated to me. isn't there any way to flash ROM on sys 1 and deleting the other partitions?
I am noob in this flashing thing and its been just 10-12 days since I started it up. the bmm method looked easy to me and I would prefer it if its possible to use for this purpose.

Flashing the FXZ is actually pretty simple. The main thing to know is which FXZ is the correct one for your phone. (Also it's a really good idea to find THAT out BEFORE you need it.) BMM is far more complicated and confusing IMHO.
Anyway, it's still possible to do a clean flash via BMM if that's what you're more comfortable with, though, so no worries. Just do a factory reset, which will format data, cache, and dalvik. Since that formats the data partition you will lose everything on any other existing systems. (though it may not always be necessary I normally format the system as well. DO NOT reboot at this point or you'll have no choice but to FXZ.) Then you just flash the zip plus gapps and whatever other mods you want. Personally I like to reboot between flashing each zip. In other words, I flash the ROM then reboot. Then gapps and reboot, etc. No repartitioning is necessary for flashing on system 1 and might actually be detrimental so just skip that.
Thanks a lot @1BadWolf, your post clears all doubts in my mind

Thanks for letting me know about no need of partitioning sys 1. If I wouldn't have been in this discussion with you, I would have ended up creating partitions on system 1 as well like what I have learnt to do on other systems and there would have been a thread by me on getting stuck in bootloop, you saved me from that.
To be bit on more safer side, let me put what I have understood so far:
1. Boot in BMM.
2. Factory reset on system one. (I have two other custom ROMs on system 3 and 4. will it also clear all the other ROMs installed on other systems also?
3. Format partitions on system one.
4. Clear system, data cache etc
5. Install ROM and GApps on system 1
6. Keep BMM in main system
7. Reboot and done
Is there anything broken or wrong in that chain?
One more query, can I keep continue installing ROMs on other systems like what I am doing right now in case of retaining stock ROM?

I know its something fairly simple, but for the newbies out there, here's a simple walkthrough I made for how to flash a custom ROM on your Android phone. If there are any improvements I can make, let me know How to Flash a Custom ROM on Android
Benefits of Flashing a Custom ROM
While you’ll end up seeing a lot of benefits from custom ROMs, they all probably fall under 3 main areas:
Better Performance – You’ll be able to overclock Android or even see it built in with the ROM as well as see overall performance increases from various tweaks
Better Battery Life – One of the first things people do when rooting is remove stock apps. Don’t know how? Most developers have the apps already removed in their ROMs. Additionally, various system tweaks and improved kernels, as well as undervolting Android help to drastically improve Android battery life.
Better Overall Experience – Try other versions of Android such as those found on other phones that have been ported to yours; stay up to date with updates and new features; try out different Android themes, etc.
All in all, there are a LOT of benefits you’ll get from using a custom ROM on Android, so wait no more, here’s How to Flash a Custom ROM on Android.
Basic Steps
Choose the ROM that you want and download its .zip file
Transfer the zip file to your phone's sd card. Do not put it into any folder.
Turn off your phone and reboot into recovery, usually by holding the down button and power button at the same time.
Do a Nandroid backup
Wipe the phone by clear cache/factory restore and wiping dalvik cache
Flash the zip file that you put on your sd card
Reboot phone

this should probably go in the wiki.

how do you:
Wipe the phone by clear cache/factory restore and wiping dalvik cache
how do you wipe dalvik cache?
Also...
I downloaded Azrael v2.41
am I suppose to rename the .zip file from Azrael_v2.41_by_Ricsim78 to PC36IMG.zip?
I once renamed it to PC36IMG.zip and it would not read it and ask me to flash..

If you're rooted, I recommend flashing to Amon Ra Recovery.
When you boot into Recovery, go into the Wipe section, there are options there to "wipe factory restore" and "wipe dalvik cache"
After you do that, go back to the main screen in Recovery mode and find where it says "flash from zip file" (or something along those lines), then navigate to where you have the Azrael zip file.
I was in the same boat you're in, just 2 days ago. I've been reading these forums nonstop for 2 days now
I did the wipe..but I'm not exactly sure how to "flash from zip"
can't find that...
and still wondering if I have to rename anything

You don't have to rename anything.
What recovery are you using - Amon Ra or Clockwork
- If you wiped and performed a NANDROID backup, then select the option of "FLASH ZIP FROM SD CARD". Then you should see the .zip file of the ROM you downloaded, select that, confirm, and once done reboot.
Good to go!
there's so many guides..some are outdated and such
I don't have root access. Still trying to get to that part before flashing.
Already performed a wiped. Now I'm stuck and don't know how to perform a proper root since all the pc36img are outdated.
I have hboot 0.97.0000
dumb question but... after i flash from zip when do i then restore the nandroid??

After you flash a ROM, you don't need to restore the nandroid. The Nandroid back up is an image of your system at the time you do the back up. You would only restore the Nandroid when you want to go back to the version on the backup.
What I do with a ROM is load it, then get everything working the way I want it to and then do a back up of it. Can then go back to it whenever you want to after trying out more ROM's.

Ive just installed Cleanrom, and it seems slower than the stock rom i used before.
I wonder if i should have done a system format in cwm, as doing this for Slimbean on my SGS helped quite a bit...

Format system is when you delete your ROM, if you want a clean install, yeah you should format system. This also depends on what ROM you want to flash. If you're going to flash stock, format system is good. I do it all the time when I flash stock
But I can also do it whatever the rom, right ? I mean if I upgrade from Cleanrom from 3.03 to 3.04, I cannot go wrong doing that ? (although they don't talk about formatting system in the guidelines).
Thank you

format system basically deletes all your system apps, which really isn't worth to do in an update from v3.0.3 to 3.0.4 - if it's a big update with many more apps included maybe it's worth, but otherways it's waste of time...

System app? When I use twrp it said wipe system removes ROM, I guess on cwm is called format system.
Well, I guess "format system" should format system (=wipe the os i guess), not remove apps...

Guess so, I guess its no problem to overwrite CWM with TWRP (as long as I load the right version, that is, JB as im on Cleanrom Inheritance 2.7.2)...
Format system on twrp and cwm means the same thing.
When you flash any ROM, all it does is place everything in the /system partition, and sometimes a kernel is also flashed.. this partition contains all files that make up android. All the apps that come with roms, all mods, themes, framework.. everything is here.
When /system is wiped, it deletes all these files to make way for a new rom. Most roms wipe system automatically when they get flashed anyway :good:
However, I think that cleanrom 3.0.3 is a dependancy for 3.0.4, this means that 3.0.4 requires the 3.0.3 system files to work properly. Check the cleanrom changelog or install instructions

I'm sorry, I was thinking of /system/app lol
I think the updates should rule that themselves that they delete the unnecessary things of an old version, so it's only recommended if you change your ROM or update to a ROM based on a later Android Version (4.1 to 4.2 or vice versa) or from AOSP to stock...
Otherwise it's just waste of time I think, I never used it and never had problems, so I think it's pretty good ruled in the updater scripts of the ROMs
So most of you must have used the PACman ROM at some point of time.Right???
Love it?But wish that the UI Tearing goes away...
Well your wish has come true...
HALO IS HERE!!!
JBX KERNEL IS HERE!!!!
SAY GOODBYE TO UI-TEARING AND ENJOY THE PACman AS IT SHOULD BE...
Well you're all well aware of the features,have seen the screenies(hell even used it) so I won't waste your and my time rattling about that.
Let's go then:
Links:
PAC
GAPPS Collection
Installation Instructions:
Note:This ROM uses JBX kernel(0.6).Those of you who were getting the black screen problem with kexec kernel will get the same bug here.
Note:Please backup your CID just to be safe.You may not have this error ever but it's always safe to have a backup of the CID.So that if you get a message invalid CID or soemthing just restore it and you'll be good to go.
To backup CID:
Reboot into Recovery
Tap on firmware flashing
Tap on backup CID.
Note:To be flashed via BMM only
BMM instructions:
See here if this is your first time multibooting with BMM.
Download and install BMM from google play https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...otmenu.manager
Our phone does not have a partition for internal storage.. so we use the data partition for it.. To do so, just open a root browser like root explorer and navigate to /etc/bmm/conf
Open "recovery.fstab" with a text editor
The last line will be something like this
/int vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p25
Just change 'vfat' to 'auto' and 'mmcblk1p25' to 'userdata' (its the same though..)
So that it looks like this
/int auto /dev/block/userdata
and of course save it and close it..
Done.. you are good to go.. Happy Multi Booting..
Just some tips
On your first reboot, tap the android, go to settings-->System_2-->Partition setup and tap on ACTIVATE. This formats cdrom partition to ext2.
Now go back 2 two steps, and select any other system(3-6). choose Partition setup, tap on system.img, tap on Create, select the size, create it. go back and do the same with data.img and cache.img.
Once thats done, go back and select recovery, select switch system. choose your system that you created the images for, the colour will change, install any custom rom.. Enjoy!!
NOTE: BMM stores the images in internal memory(/int/clockworkmod/virtual/system_(num)). Since we dont have emmc partition and are using the data partition for /int, doing a factory reset will wipe it out and you will lose all your other roms.. So be carefull..
NOTE 2: USE ONLY SYSTEMS 3 TO 6 FOR CUSTOM ROMS.. SUSTEM 2 IS CDROM PARTITION.. YOU ACTIVATE IT ONCE AND DONE.. DONT TOUCH IT AGAIN.. ITS ONLY 12MB..
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT INSTALL BMM IF YOU USED A2 BOOTSTRAPPER BEFORE. THAT WILL MESS THINGS UP WITH YOUR LOGWRAPPER.BIN. THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE YOU WILL BOOT LOOP AFTER REBOOT. NOW IF FOR SOME REASON YOU DID NOT READ THIS, AND GET A MESSAGE ABOUT BMM ASKING YOU TO GET HELP, BEST THING FOR YOU TO DO IS RECHARGE YOUR BATTERY FULLY AND FXZ BACK. OR THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE YOU WILL HAVE TO USE MCGRUVYER METHOD OR ANOTHER A2 BATTERY. USER RAD7 RECENTLY HAD QUITE A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH HIS BATTERY DYING AFTER BMM MESSED WITH LOGWRAPPER. YOU HAVE BEEN INFORMED.
Make sure you have BMM recovery.
Reboot and hit the droid at the BMM splash screen
Optional:
Tap on Settings
Create a new System by creating system,data and cache partitons.Delete the previous partitions if you have to(NOTE: You can skip this but it's better to do it this way)

Ok I've made a small Fix Audio.zip it should enhance audio significantly and also fix the broken sound recorder(I bet no one new that it was broken)
Anyways flash in recovery.No wipes needed.
Also if you don't like the new audio you can revert back to your old settings and broken voice recorder by flashing the Fix Audio Revert.zip

I installed this to system 3 and got it to boot up once, but whenever I rebooted, every time I try to boot it up, I just get sent back to the moto dual core logo. Does this mean I'm a kexec reject?
Edit: I played around some more, turns out system 1 and system 3 didnt play nice together,so deleting system 3 fixed it!

i'm currently on boot menu manager 0.2.7 right now and on the NUMA ROM. Is the BMM I'm supposed to use different and is the process different since I'm coming from NUMA?
EDIT: nvm, installed and rebooted to system 2. Now waiting for it to boot (taking forever)!

Well the multi booting process is significantly different in the 0.2.7 and 0.3.4 better just upgrade the BMM and then flash it.
But the process would be the same.

Okay... kind of lost on the instructions. I rebooted, clicked the droid, and click settings, picked system 2 (NUMA is on system 1) and I'm only given "Partition setup" and "Boot mode". I clicked System 2 and clicked activate. Am I supposed to go back, enter recovery and then continue with the instructions?

Have you modified the recovery.fstb files???
See here
And then use system 3 or above to install

Hmmm...Done!!!
So far, so epic
So, just to be sure before I begin: I'm on JB leak 1 (4.1.2), and I must go back to stock ICS before flashing this, right? Or I can just install BBM and install it from here? I was absent in the recent weeks so can someone direct me?

Yeah. Go on and flash . Its kexec. Doesn't matter which kernel it is.
In the first post it says that I shouldn't install BMM if I have A2 Bootstrapper. Should I remove it first?
I never used BMM before, so I'm not familiar with it yet

Not after, before, but it's not a necessity unless you're installing additional systems for multi-booting.

Just to piggy back this question.
One rom installing guide told that i have to manually create the system 3 partition.
But my rooted BMM is showing system 1-6. are these just dummy entries or do the partitions exist already?

They're just dummy entries. You only need to create additional partitions if you intend to use them. Creating additional will leave you with less room for apps, etc on system 1 so don't do that step unless you're multi booting.
When installing my rom(slimkat) i couldnt figure out how to create system 3, so i flashed onto system 1. I got the error about BMM not installing
bye to bmm, install didnt take and i had to flash ics back. What did i do wrong?
1. did you used/remove bootstrap files before install BMM?
2. did you made any changes to recovery.fstab file from etc/bmm/conf?
you suppose to change /int vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p25 to /int auto /dev/block/userdata

When installing a ROM by formatting /system, BMM is removed from system partition. To get it back for next boot you have to go to system keeper option in recovery and install BMM again.
I had to go to back to ICS twice when I made this mistake. Hope you don't make the same mistake next time.
Cheeers!
I tried again this time flashing the rom first then rebooting. Rom loaded up nice with BMM already installed. However, when I went back to recovery to flash the gapps I got a boot loop.
what is the rom partition memory of OnePlus one? Because when i try to flash the stock rom with the stock gapps, it says it cant be installed because of inadequate memory.

You mean the system partition? You can know that by downloading "Disk Partition" App.But why risking all of this when you can flash a strimmed down(pico/nano) version of Gapps then later install additional Gapps as you like.Moreover stock Cos 13.1.x comes with full Gapps.And it is nothing but a bloatware and always remember bloatware=degradation of device

Just go ahead and make a thread about the guide in General to share your knowledge in the community.Im sure people will find it useful.Also it will be new as I haven't saw any of these types of guides around.
I tried flashing the stock gapps to install stock google apps like dialer and message apps. And I did it, i just opened the stock gapps.zip with file explorer, and deleted some google apps which i didnot need. And flashed that gapps, and everything is fine now. Custom rom with stock gapps.
