Dual-boot of Sammy and AOSP is working!

RichMD · Feb 17, 2013

FYI - DerTeufel1980 had a solid kernel working fairly quickly and has since worked on the recovery mods to allow installing two ROMs, etc. He has been working through a few items such as USB only working for charging, etc. He is making progress though.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
DerTeufel1980 has a dual-boot kernel working for the Samsung Galaxy line (Captivate, etc). With our help, he has been able to purchase a Note II to work on and I have been updating this thread with donation promises.
The post is below. You can look at his stats (a recognized developer with close to 13,000 thanks) and know that he can be trusted. Just to have him working on the Note II will be a great addition. I started the thread on the AT&T forum and then added it in the N7100/N7105 forum when I realized he lives in Germany. He and I have committed a fair amount of $ to make this happen so if you feel inclined to help out then it would be appreciated.

Update 5/25 - DerTeufel1980 has spent a while perfecting a universal kernel that works on AOSP and Sammy ROMs. The thread is here > http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239453
He had to work out some bugs that prevented troubleshooting the dual-boot problem. However, he recently returned to the dual-boot problem and has solved it. He has been able to dual-boot with AOSP as primary, Sammy as secondary and vice-versa. He is still fixing some recovery issues, etc but is hopeful that the release will be available tomorrow. This turned out to be much more challenging than other phones but that is probably why nobody else has accomplished it until he had a device to work on...

Re: Dual-boot donation thread - Currently $50

Thank you very much for your effort. It's highly appreciated

I don't know much about the note 2 yet.
I know, it's similar to the S3 devices. Are there also different versions, like at&t or international? If so, are there big differences?

Edit: lol. I just realised, that I am already writing in the at&t section. Ok, how about the differences? Are there kernels working for at&t as well as international?

Btw: if this thread really is going to get me the device, ill pay 100 € myself, as I was going to get a new device within the next few months (i preferred nexus 4).

Only the n7105 version since it matches the basebands of the us versions since they are all the same

Thanks, I sent a link to the n7105 to see what would work in his area (Germany).

Have you had any more success in getting donations? I am willing to chip in - I wasn't aware of dual booting until I saw your thread - read a little and think it would be really cool - how much more is needed?

Re: Dual-boot donation thread - Currently $50

Count me in with another 25 bucks.

I'm not certain how much more is necessary. DerTeufel1980 said he would kick in 100 euros (around $136) if we can get it. I would assume he would get the N7105 (international) with LTE which a lot of our custom ROMs are based on. I have also posted a thread in the general forum for the N7100/7105 after this thead since that is probably more appropriate since he lives in Germany.
How much can I put you down for? I also have received some other donations. I will put names and amounts in the first post.

RichMD · Feb 19, 2013

And the total climbs some more...

RichMD · Feb 19, 2013

And another donation - good progress for day 1.

Thank you all who already donated. Looking forward to build a nice kernel for this device

Re: Dual-boot donation thread - Currently >$281.00

Where are we supposed to send donations to? I am interested in donating especially since Ubuntu mobile is going to be released tomorrow and I suspect that it will be made available for our device shortly after. It would be amazing to have a dual booting kernel to run Ubuntu and android side by side on our beast of a phone.

I can't promise, booting Ubuntu and android is going to be working. But of course I also would be interested in this combo and try my best to achieve it.

Thanks, I will add your name to the list. I will also create a thread on the Verizon forum since they would benefit as well.

Re: Dual-boot donation thread - Currently >$306.00

Cool. Also bump for great justice. Let's keep this thread on top so that we get more donations to make this kernel a reality. I'm so excited by the prospect

Edit: and make it $29 instead of 25 to make it a nicer number

When it's dual boot, does it mean we can boot 2 ROMS?

I am asking this coz, its been so long since the Note 2 released and we are still struggling with a solution to ALLSHARE DONGLE working with a CUSTOM ROM and this is specific to AT&T ( or rogers for that matter )

So, if there is a way to boot in Stock Rom for ALLSHARE and then boot in Custom Rom for other goodies, then this is awesome

Can someone clarify, i would be happy to donate

I don't know the exact ROMs that you can run with the dual boot kernel, but it does mean that you can run two separate ones on the same phone just by booting into one or the other. Look at the op and read the developers thread for the dual boot kernel that he made for another phone and it will help clarify the project

Any idea about price? Also, bump! Why would anyone not want this kernel for our device?
