Use EFIDroid instead of SDExt...:fingers-crossed:
Because if you use SDExt than you need to partition your SD Card from PC but in EFIDroid Partitioning of SDCard is not Required...

I just add sd-ext support for user who want to use Link2SD. I have tried yoAreoA00 TWRP and see there's too many unnecessary partitions. The flashable zip has a bug also (The dd script call the wrong image name, I have to extract it and flash the IMG file myself).

Same here. I also flashed the image through RASHR
But backing up Modem partition is a good thing. Also sd-ext support should be added

Personally I liked it and have plan to use it unless a better version is released. So the credit goes to you.
But support for sd-ext might also have been a good addition in case someone has a natural inclination towards 2nd partition.

This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread.

Ok: I need a backup with Titanium.
You need to modify mountsd on the initd folder prior to flashing if you want the rom to see your ext4 partition... or flash ManU kernel.

[NIGHTLY][ROM][4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10 for Acer A700

CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
WARNING: I've bricked my tablet into APX mode around the 10th time of flashing this ROM (recovery froze and it rebooted into APX). The new (Update 1) recovery should be safer than the old one, but flash at your own risk!
Code:

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.
All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread.
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow.
Code:
What is your--
Phone model:
Radio (baseband):
CM version:
CM Download url:
Gapps version:
Did you--
wipe:
restore with titanium backup:
reboot after having the issue:
Are you using--
a task killer:
a non-stock kernel:
CMSettings/Performance settings (other than stock):
other modifications:
Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last version it worked on/etc) as needed:

No, read inside the brackets
The "CWM Recovery 6.0.1.0 for A700" has broken build prop and will cause the device check to fail.

Actually, I did read inside the brackets, but the CWM in the mentioned thread is not a touch version, or so I thought, that's why I asked.
EDIT: Now I realised that we were talking about the exact same thread title.
Anyways, I will flash this one, give it a whirl and read twice or more next time.
Jeez, where is my mind...
Thanks again.
Does the CM10 include the performance update?
does anyone else get e:Can't mount /sdcard/ ?
cwm tells me can't mount sdcard and emmc but data, cache and system mount fine (backup even stores on the sdcard under cwm folder)
Can you give us the MD5 CWM recovery ? Thx

The installer doesn't, but you'll need to wipe data for it to boot successfully. Wiping data won't wipe your internal sdcard though.
I'm getting the triangle of death after flashing the recovery in the OP...
I had the other CWM you posted in the other thread which the tablet seemed to boot into just fine.
i'm running a a700 with the a701 rom from way back, is that my issue?

ROOT AND CUSTOM RECOVERY
Please go to this thread to get the custom recovery and how to root your device.
prodigiez has done an incredible job of finding and maintaining all the pieces that we need to root and play with our devices.

======================================================
TIPS
Thanks to hadinz you can finally have the camera shortcut in your lock screen while using secured lock-screen. Please follow the steps below:
"Go to system/csc/ and rename costumer.xml to costumer.xml.backup and then reboot... go to settings lockscreen/shortcut/camera and done.use root browser for renaming."
This also has the nice side effect to enable "Data Roaming" and VoLTE.

Great work. I imagine that you must download the zip and install from recovery and use the option install zip and you search the file.
My question is why can whe not wipe the phone?
Can whe use the other option of CWM for format the data internal memory?
Is there some video on YouTube to see the options of these ROM? Have you included some auto update for future updates or must she reinstall all the new version?
Which of the 2 files is the latest version the v1.0 or v.1.1
Must whe install bootlogo or is it optional?

Yes, you download the ZIP file and flash it from recovery. There is a bug in the only available CWM recovery. If you need to wipe data, I would recommend that you format the data partition. Never use Wipe/Factory Reset.
I don't have any videos for the ROM features. Besides the changes listed in the OP, this is pure stock. Everytime that there is an update you would have to download the new ZIP file and flash it from recovery.
No need to install the Boot animation unless you want the Korean boot animation back.
The ROM versions are based on the Samsung versions and the changes I make to each version.
For instance, the Samsung version is NG8 and is followed by 1.1a it means that I have made a few revisions to the ROM based on NG8.
After NG8 came NH2 (H after G) and the ROM based on version NH2 has only had one revision (version 1).
I hope that this makes sense. Always look at the update date to determine which one is the latest version.
I will make a video of this rom if you like and post it on my youtube channel. Like a video tour

Is there any way to get rid of the annoying "set warranty bit:kernel" message once you've installed the custom ROM?
Also same question for the korean characters on the boot logo.
Thanks a lot in advance!

As far as I know, The "set warranty bit:kernel" is either coming from the recovery's kernel or the ROM's kernel. Both have been modified not conforming to the Samsung security model. Therefore the message.
Those Korean characters are coming from the bootloader itself prior to loading Android's kernel. I am not sure how to modify that. Maybe Hex Editing the boatloader file and flashing it back with Odin?
Hey Miscom:
I really appreciate your development with the G906S/K. There aren't many devs for this device yet so you are a pioneer in the field!
Couple quick questions:
Does the international Samsung boot animation you added in replace the branded animation?
Let me elaborate: so initially the phone boots up saying S5 LTE-A, then followed up by the corresponding telecommunication company animation. So SKT on the G906S and Olleh on the G906S.
That bloat ware animation is the one that is removed and replaced, right?
Secondly, is the H/H+ vanilla to other phone variants of TouchWiz?
Also could you enlighten me on the following features:
Xposed
No Wipe
Thanks man

Tanks for the answer.
When whe install the roms what options can whe use for erase/format the memory off thease options?
* Wipe Data/Factory Reset
* Wipe Cache Partition
* Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
* Mounts and Storage -> format /cache
* Mounts and Storage -> format /system
* Mounts and Storage -> format /data
* Mounts and Storage -> format /sdcard
* Mounts and Storage -> format /emmc
Teorical whe can only use format /cache, format /data, format /sdcard and format /emmc is thease right?

Yes. This is the first time that I see a Samsung device not showing H/H+. That's why I made the change as suggested by prodigiez Could this be how it's use in Korea?.
Also could you enlighten me on the following features:
Xposed
No Wipe
XPosed: An advanced framework that allows you to tweak your device to your heart's content. The best way to understand it, it's to use it. Be careful, though, you may do something with that may create issues. In that case just reflash the ROM and start over.
No wipe: The ROM will not wipe the data partition during installation

You can format /data and /cache. Never format the SDCard. This would wipe your pictures and other documents that you may have there.
And never format /emmc.

Ok, but my propose is to know when i can use thease formats, i mean when i will sell the phone i will erase it completly, then i must use the:
Mounts and Storage -> format /cache
Mounts and Storage -> format /data
Mounts and Storage -> format /sdcard
Mounts and Storage -> format /emmc
Is thease correect?
The format emmc is for the external SD card?
The only think that its not allowed is to wipe the phone?

I see your point now. Yes, you would format /cache, /data and /sdcard. I would **not** format /emmc. I have never done it and I have read that doing that creates issues. I would remove the external SD Card and format it in a PC.

[HOW TO] CONVERT any ROM to F2FS format

NOTE:As i have already moved on to the S6 edge, the amount of support that i can provide would be minimal
THIS IS COMPATIBLE WITH ALL VARIANTS OF THE NOTE 3.
Firstly f2fs can only be used with f2fs compatible KERNEL'S and if you brick your device,Its just because you didnt read and follow the instructions listed from this part of the OP.
Before we start,I would like to thank @psycho4us4 who had allowed me to start a guide thread on the Note3 Forums on f2fs based on his thread from the Note2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-tmobile/development/how-to-conversion-t2853975
Kernel's with full f2fs support>System,Cache,Data
-Lean Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2488082
(Tested)​
-Shinto kernel.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2895089
(Tested)
Feel free to inform me on kernels which have full support with all 3 partitions mentioned
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONVERSION OF EXT4 TO F2FS
1.Make sure you have the latest TWRP Recovery on your device(V2.8.1.0 Should be good to go) Get it here> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2
2.In the { Settings } menu of TWRP make sure the [ Use rm -rf instead of formatting ] is unchecked MAKE A FULL, COMPLETE BACKUP with TWRP 2.8.1.0 ( I can't stress this enough if you don't want to use Odin). Keeping in mind that whatever format your partitions are is what format they will be backed up as, such as EXT2, EXT3, EXT4, FAT, F2FS, etc. This will wipe INTERNAL SD so please make a backup of it to your EXT SD CARD/EXTERNAL MEMORY DRIVE.
3. Next from TWRP home, select { WIPE }
4. Then select { ADVANCED WIPE }
5. Then select { CACHE } and click { REPAIR OR CHANGE FILE SYSTEM }
6. Then select { Change File System } and select { F2FS }, then SWIPE TO CHANGE. After it formats successfully click { Back }. Then hit the back button for 2 pages until your back at the [ Select Partitions To Wipe page ].
7. Now select { SYSTEM } and click { REPAIR OR CHANGE FILE SYSTEM }
8. Then select { Change File System } and select { F2FS }, then SWIPE TO CHANGE. After it formats successfully click { Back }. Then hit the back button for 2 pages until your back at the [ Select Partitions To Wipe page ].
9. Then select { DATA } and click { REPAIR OR CHANGE FILE SYSTEM }
10. Then select { Change File System } and select { F2FS }, then SWIPE TO CHANGE. After it formats successfully click { Back }. Then hit the back button for 2 pages until your back at the [ Select Partitions To Wipe page ].
11. Next from TWRP home, click { Settings } then { X } the box that says [ Use rm -rf instead of formatting ].
12. Hit the back button, then select { Restore }. Click on the package you want to restore ( this is the backup you made in step #2 )'
13. Next { X } the boxes { CACHE, SYSTEM, and DATA ONLY }. Then SWIPE TO RESTORE.
14. ALL DONE now just click { Reboot System }
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just in case you have a problem and you needed to convert back to EXT4,Here is how you do it
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONVERSION FROM F2FS TO EXT4
1. If you don't already have a backup that you want to use ( backed up with the [ Use rm -rf instead of formatting ] UNCHECKED ) then make one using Step 2 from above instructions.
2. Follow steps 2 through 14 from above, the only thing you have to do different is, instead of choosing { F2FS } for the file format you can choose ANY of the options available as long as the KERNEL you are running supports the format you are switching to.
3. That"s it
3a. If you already have a backup done with the format you desire all you have to do is make sure the [ Use rm -rf instead of formatting ] option is UNCHECKED then restore the { CACHE } AND { SYSTEM } partitions from the package you desire that was made in the format you desire.
3b. The { DATA } has to be done manually by following steps 3, 4, 9, 10 but then hit the back button till your at the TWRP home screen. Next do step 11. Then restore the { DATA } partition from the same backup as mentioned in step 3a.
3c. Reboot and done!​

Try slimming down your system partition before you make the backup. It's got to be twrp blocking the restoration of such a large system partition. We have the same issue with the note 2. Only for some users though.

The only partition that fails ( to restore ) is system.
So, if i well understood, i should try the following :
- format the system partition;
- restart recovery;
- restore the partition from the backup.
ok, i'll try !
thank you again !
EDIT : tried and does not work, reverting again to ext4

Does the back up of your ROM consist of a F2FS compatible kernel? If it does not, than it could be why your system refused to get restored.

Introduction
MultiROM is one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod for Galaxy ACE 3 LTE. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch, once they are ported to that device. Besides booting from device's internal memory, MultiROM can boot from external SD card. The main part of MultiROM is a boot manager, which appears every time your device starts and lets you choose ROM to boot. You can see how it looks on the image above. ROMs are installed and managed via modified TWRP recovery. You can use standard ZIP files to install secondary Android ROMs and MultiROM even has its own installer system, which can be used to ship other Linux-based systems.
Features:
* Multiboot any number of Android ROMs
* Restore nandroid backup as secondary ROM
* Boot from Internal memory and MicroSD Card (non tested)
Warning!
This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. It is no longer messing with data partition or boot sector, but it is possible that something goes wrong (even if never happened until now) and you will have to flash stock firmware with Odin. Make backups. Always.
Installation, Note: Only manual installation is supported, because this mod is not officially supported.
MultiROM has 3 parts you need to install:
MultiROM
Modified recovery
Patched kernel
Now let's head to the installation. Note: Your primary ROM is recommended to be lollipop, because it doesn't act well as a secondary, due to enforcing selinux. Although you can use it as secondary, but change it's selinux status. My setup is Lollipop as primary, and KitKat as secondary. Stock ROM was not tested, because I hate it
I spent about 5 days working on this. My head will explode There is a tiny issue. MultiROM boot menu does not show up as it should. That's why we should use the MultiROM manager apk. and switch ROMs from the app.
Attention: The steps are if you use CM-12.1 as primary ROM
Kernel for Stock ROM with kexec-hardboot patch here
Step 1: Install this patched kernel over CM12.1. Or this, if you want OC.
Step 2: Install the modified Multirom Manager apk, I added support for our device
Step 3: Install Multirom
Step 4: Install MultiROM TWRP, via previous TWRP recovery, it can flash images
Step 5: Reboot into new recovery
Step 6: Install CM11, as secondary ROM!!
Step 7: Go to recovery-->Advanced-->MultiRom-->List ROM-->Choose CM11-->Flash Zip. Flash either stock kernel, or oc_kernel. Both include the necessary kexec-hardboot patch. Usually Multirom requires only primary ROM to have the kexec-hardboot patch, but in our case it does not work this way.
Now you are ready to switch ROMs. Ooh, almost forgot. MultiROM boot manager will show up if you connect the phone for offline charging, you will find out what happens on each case. This is the only bug that I can't resolve yet. Although multirom can be used, with this bug.
Code:
Update 20150829: Download everything from this [URL="https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=37974"]folder[/URL]
Kernel will be updated when ROM is built
Changelog: Re-implemented kexec hardboot and fixe last_kmsg creation
Video on how to install
Video on how to flash updates
*Thanks Tech Tutorials channel for the videos
NOTE: If secondary ROM does not boot, select Restorecon under multirom

Click to collapse
Switch ROMs from the MultiRom manager app
NOTICE: I can't guarantee it will work on other variants rather than "R"
To uninstall Multirom simply flash this
You current ROM will not be erased by the installation.
Adding ROMs
1. Android
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm.
Using MicroSD Card
During installation, recovery lets you select install location. You just select the location (extX, NTFS and FAT32 partitions are supported) and proceed with the installation.
If you wanna use other than default FAT32 partition, just format it in PC. If you don't know how/don't know where to find out how, you probably should not try installing MultiROM.
If you are installing to NTFS or FAT32 partition, recovery asks you to set image size for all the partitions - this cannot be easilly changed afterward, so choose carefully. FAT32 is limited to maximum of 4095MB per image - it is limitation of the filesystem, I can do nothing about that.
Installation to MicroSD Card takes a bit more, because the external memory is (usually) slower and it needs to create the images. Also boot process is longer, highly depends on card's class. You can find ROMs installed on SD card in the "External" tab in boot menu.
Updating/changing ROMs
1. Primary ROM (Internal)
Flash ROM's ZIP file as usual, do factory reset if needed (it won't erase secondary ROMs)
Go to Advanced -> MultiROM in recovery and do Inject curr. boot sector.
2. Secondary Android ROMs
If you want to change the ROM, delete it and add new one. To update ROM, follow these steps:
Go to Advanced -> MultiROM -> List ROMs and select the ROM you want to update.
Select "Flash ZIP" and flash ROM's ZIP file.
Explanation of recovery menus
Main menu
- Add ROM - Add ROM to boot manager
- List ROMs - List installed ROMs and manage them
- Inject curr. boot sector - Use this option if MultiROM does not show up on boot, for example after kernel installation.
- Settings - Well, settings
Manage ROM
- Rename, delete - I believe these are obvious
- Flash ZIP (only Android ROMs) - Flash ZIP to the ROM, for example GApps
- Add/replace boot.img - Replaces boot.img used by the ROM, this is more like developer option.

Multirom works on fat systems on sdcard as fas as I know, see more info about the limitations on the OP. To use stock ROM you need a stock kernel with kexec hardboot patch, I have already patched it, it is also available on my github. I just haven't built it. I can build it although
Edit: Due to the bug, that multirom does not show up on boot, we actually can't install ROMS on Sdcard, they are not visible by MultiRom manager app.
Edit2: stock kernel with kexec-hardboot patch download
Edit3: Trying to make it fully functional

you can boot into multirom menu, if the phone is off and you connect it to the charger, so you can experiment a little

So we will stay do this , just if we install a ROM in the SD card .
Or what ?! :|
OK , after flashing the stock kernel with kexec-hardboot patch, I can't flash any other kernel like arasma kernel in my stock ROM(4.2.2) ?
If I can't .. Can you make a kexec-hardboot patch for arasma kernel ?
Here : http://d-h.st/aYr
Or .. Can you make the lollipop kernel (1.7GHz) work on the stock ROM ?

Mate I want to answer you and I do the best I can. Now I am working to make multirom fully functional, what don't you understand? The same time I am studying. It is pretty hard for me. The thing you ask me requires fully functional multirom. Enjoy it as it is, if you can and wait for the fix. Thanks
*Also, I will modify the stock kernel, as the others

May I ask why you do this?
MTP practically destroys any real world benefit that EXT could possibly offer you, and if you use UMS et al you'll hit permissions issues with the media that completely ruin its ability to function as removable storage unless every single one of the systems it touches only has a single user or you carefully craft the system environment so that the user always has the same UID.
It's just weird to use a journalled filesystem with access permissions as removable storage. Either MTP destroys any gains you might possibly get, or UMS makes it impossible to access the contents of the volume on ~99% of all the systems you'll ever encounter in the wild. Ever wondered why you never see external storage volumes with permission based filesystems? This is why. It's largely silly.
I tried to restore a backup of stock rom, i want to try if it works and maybe use it as 3rd rom but CWM says .android_secure.vfat.tar and .Android_secure.vfat.Tar.a are missing does anyone know what it means and how to fix it. Does CWM version matter? Can TWRP instal backups made by CWM?

To use it with stock ROM, you need to install a stock kernel with hardboot patch, there is one in the OP. TWRP can't restore backups from CWM, different format of backup. I don't see any reason of using CWM, since there is TWRP.

Thanks but the only backups i have of stock are made with CWM. When i try to restore it says .Android_secure.vfat.Tar and .Android_secure.vfat.Tar.a are missing so i can't restore and make a backup with TWRP. Found some info about it and trying tot make it work right now.
