Dual Boot Support will REQUIRE PhilZ Touch Advanced from here: PhilZ

Dual boot instructions will be below BUT if installing TW be sure to install as primary whether it will be or not, it doesn't matter. The last used rom will boot by default but you will also be presented with a boot menu. Also TW Roms must be fully deknoxed or it is reported to not boot. I DO NOT own this device. Ramdisk was ported by @jlmancuso and also tested. So give him thank

Dual boot Instructions(will be updated)

4. "I want to setup dual booting."
A. There are four situations:-
1) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as secondary.
2) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as primary.
3) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as secondary.
4) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as primary.

Prerequisites for any setup is
a) Flash latest Shift kernel.
b) Flash latest Extended PhilZ Touch recovery from the OP
c) Atleast 90% battery left.
d) 3 GB free on internal SD.
e) Some spare time

1)Start out with a full wipe of everything including internal sdcard
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Select "Run Aroma Dual Boot Tool" in Advaced Menu, create system.img of at least 1 GB for Secondary ROM and then exit tool as suggested. Now flash Primary ROM, flash shift kernel. Boot the primary ROM(again TW must be PRIMARY). Reboot to recovery and when boot menu is presented
iii) Reboot into secondary recovery (red on screen navigation buttons)
iv) Flash 2nd ROM
v) Flash Shift kernel again
vi)Choose booting ROM with AROMA boot menu on initial startup

2) Present sammy, setup aosp as primary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Nandroid backup your current sammy ROM
iii) Select "Run Aroma Dual Boot Tool" in Advaced Menu, create system.img for Samsung stock/stock based ROM and then close it
iv) Reboot into secondary recovery (red on screen navigation buttons)
v) Nandroid restore your sammy ROM as 2nd ROM
vi) Flash Shift kernel again
vii) Reboot into primary recovery
viii) Flash aosp ROM as 1st ROM
ix) Flash Shift kernel again

3) Present aosp, setup sammy as secondary:-
Same as (1), instead of flashing aosp to second, flash sammy to second.

4) Present aosp, setup sammy as primary:-
Same as (2), instead of flashing aosp to first ROM, flash sammy.

NOTE:
-To dual boot Two Aosp or Two Sammy roms, just follow (1) or (2) (depending on which one of them you want as primary/secondary), just flash Sammy instead of aosp or aosp instead of sammy.

5. "What things should I be taking care off while dealing with dual booting?"
A. - Make sure where you are: in primary or secondary recovery.

6. "How to boot into primary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.

7. "How to boot into secondary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.

8. "Is kernel partition shared?"

FYI this will only work on fully deknoxed tw roms!!! Which right now is my stock NE2 1.2.


If the rom you are using does not want to work there are a few steps you can do (suggest you do this to the zip before flashing)

Remove any apps that say knox (although I am pretty sure all custom versions have this done already)

DO NOT EDIT MY STOCK 1.2!!!

These are the steps I used to get Classic Priest Punch working


/system/app
delete universalmdmclient.apk

/system/priv-app remove klmsagent.apk

/system/lib
remove libknox_encryption.so

/system
delete container (leave containers or add if not there)

then in build.prop
change ro.config.knox=v30 to =0

ro.config.dha_empty_max_knox=0

Do I need the latest philz to flash this or just when using dual boot ?

I am on the stock ne2. I can't get past my lock screen. It just freezes, then turns completely black requiring a battery pull.

Should be only for dual boot. I did not test this as mentioned. @jlmancuso has been doing all that

 

[deviouskind]

That is my problem... I cannot even get to that page. When I click on the download link to get to the page you are referring to, it takes me back to latest posts within XDA app. I would need the URL to the download page.

The screenshots show what I mean.

Ok time to back up and try this on chaz classic.

 

[Bossog]

I tried this on Rwilcos stock rom and I was stopped at the Note 2 screen. Just an FYI.

 

[jlmancuso]

Hey this will not run on chazs or rwilcos roms. Knox is giving this kernel major problems. Every last bit of knox files must be removed from the rom or this kernel wont boot. Hope to have a knox friendly version very soon. Also for aosp roms they must be cm based.

Well it flashes and booted the first time. Then all go nut with constant reboot. Thanks for letting me know. If there are files I can manually remove to use this please let me know. I'm on Chaz Classic stock.

Observation: I don't see option to change voltage, only overclock when it was running.

 

[DisposableHero1985]

I cannot get past the note 2 screen with your stock ne2 rom if I flash the kernel any suggestions?

 

[jlmancuso]

I will go through your rom and make a list of everything you need to remove. I will hit you back on hangouts with the info.


Now voltages are in stweaks you need to look a little better next time.
