@Phil_Suz, you probably already know this, but your modified v2.7.0.0 TWRP for the d2spr fixes the "official" release's problem of not seeing any partitions on some newer S3s.

I was wondering if you would mind if I, or you yourself, whichever you like, post links to here (or you tell me where you'd like the links to point to) in the TWRP and the all recoveries threads since this makes v2.7.0.0 usable for the rest of us who had problems with the official release?

Thank you for this!

Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SIII with M.O.A.R. v9.0, dkp kernel dated 2/25/2014 and TWRP v2.6.3.0.

Hi roirraW "edor" ehT,

No I did not know that you had this problem and that this version was working. Yes, you can post link to here but as a temporary solution, I don't manage at all twrp code, my add-on does not touch twrp code so it's a bit weird that this correct a problem on twrp side.

Philippe,

Absolutely, I won't expect you to provide anything and I will explain and encourage others not to either. Thanks again for this. I love the idea of multi-boot although for myself I probably won't be curious enough to try it until a new x.x version of Android drops and won't be provided in a TouchWiz version, so just guessing 4.5 or 5.0 although I hope we get one of those too. :)

Kudos!

Edit: Do you take donations?

Hi All,

Multiboot v2.11 is now ready.
This version adds feature to multiboot ubuntu touch 14.04 on galaxy S3 ( img format only, external sdcard strongly recommanded).

I did this ubuntu port on my d2att model but it could possibly work on your device.
If you want to test, I prepared a d2lte test version (0.13) here : http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407583872

Important recommandations and details of working features can be found in this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2702692

multiboot v2.11 is at same usual location.

Note : Please let a feedback message in this tread or original one if you tested it. if you report that it is not working, I will remove download link.

Philippe,

S3 TWRP back in business

Thought my new "Best Buy Black Friday" Sprint special was not going to be as cool as it could be since I couldn't get 2.7 TWRP working - but thanks to your modded version I am back in business.

Been running just pac rom for so long forgot there were other sections to this forum. Noticed this today thanks for the work it's nice being able to preview and have multiple roms for ultimate compatibility. Running 5.0 and 4.4 which really helps the transition in my case.

I've been trying this for the past couple days. I can't get it to boot into Ubuntu or any 5.0 ROM. Ubuntu just stays on the boot screen. 5.0 Roms hang while installing.:(
