Introduction

MultiROM is one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod for Nexus 7. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch, Plasma Active, Bohdi Linux or WebOS port.Besides booting from device's internal memory, MultiROM can boot from USB drive connected to the device via OTG cable. 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 left image below and in gallery. ROMs are installed and managed via modified TWRP recovery. You can use standard ZIP files to install secondary Android ROMs, daily prebuilt image files to install Ubuntu Touch 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
* Use for example Ubuntu Touch (will be there in future ;) ) or Desktop alongside with Android, without the need of device formatting

You can also watch a video which shows it in action. Tutorial by @TheDj408


Everything Fixed :) , No issue's

Warning!

It _is_ dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. It is messing with boot sector and data partition. It is no longer messing with data partition or boot sector, but it is possible that something goes wrong and you will have to flash factory images again. Make backups. Always.​

Installation


Manual installation
Firstly, there are videos on youtube. If you want, just search for "MultiROM installation" on youtube and watch those, big thanks to all who made them. There is also an awesome article on Linux Journal.

Note 1: Your device must not be encrypted (hint: if you don't know what it is, then it is not encrypted).

MultiROM has 3 parts you need to install:
MultiROM (multirom-YYYYMMDD-vXX-condor.zip) - download the ZIP file from second post and flash it in recovery.
Modified recovery (TWRP_multirom_mako_YYYYMMDD.img) - download the IMG file from second post and use fastboot
Patched kernel - You need Kexec-hardboot patched kernel (i will share XT1022 stock and cm-11)

1.First Flash MultiROM zip via Recovery :- LINK
2.Reboot to bootloader
3.Fastboot MultiROM TWRP Recovery (Terminal Command "fastboot flash recovery MultiROM-TWRP.img" ) LINK
4.Reboot recovery.


Adding ROMs

Android
Go to recovery, select Advanced -> MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm. As for the space, clean installation of stock 4.4 after first boot (with dalvik cache generated and connected to google account) takes 676mb of space.​

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.

Issue's :-
1. Touch doesn't work on MultiROM Bootmenu (wait for 5 secs after pressing vol down button it will let you select) , so need to use volume key for navigating and power button for selection. (Haven't looked into touch input's yet, will be fixed asap)
2. I haven't try to boot ROM's on SDCARD but i have tested CM-11 and stock 4.4.4 on internal , because i don't have sdcard currently. Let me know if it work's fine

Nice work! I'll try this on my xt1023 once the sd card support is fixed and report back.

Also, what's with all the full quotes of the OP?

About SDcard support​

"MultiROM only supports devices with storage in /data/media/. Physical SD cards are not supported because of how slow and generally awful they are, but some devices have "fake" /sdcard on separate partition, which is not supported as of yet."

Now you will ask ,why ? doesn't it makes sense 30-40mbps speed SDcards will be so slow and it will affect the sdcard also .4GB Internal storage can handle 2 to 3 firmware's easily imo and keep all other stuff in external SD :)

About Touch Not working

It's fixed ;) http://youtu.be/G9lDvfN-9mk
