Uh, I never said PN complained, I meant my secondary rom which is RR that complains. My PN is perfectly fine. Both are with the March update so I don't know why PN would be fine while RR isn't except that it's the secondary rom. Both are using FK R12. Also, it's not the vendor mismatch error. It's a completely different phrase. Let me boot up and get you the exact error msg.

It says "There's an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacturer for details." and that's it. I click OK and everything still works. Lol

Oh I take it back, the newest RR does not contain the March security fixes so it is probably that issue. Just checked in the About phone details.

That seems to indicate a fingerprint sensor malfunction: the fingerprint sensor support is much improved in Stable 2 - try updating. It seems to be harmless anyways.

So... I was dumb enough to test the Android N flashable a page back and it has forced an encryption on my phone and there is no password!
I didn't even flash to primary, it was 4th MR ROM - not sure how it's locked it like it has.

Is anyone able to tell me how to format my device??
Every time I try to format I drops out with an error - I tried fastboot erase and /data won't format.
I used setting/format device and it reboots to TWRP asking for a password.
I have removed all OS info I could, reinstalled CM13.0 and same issue.
I cannot format because some fool has upped a dodgy file. (im an idiot for trusting)
Is anyone able to tell me how to format? Device is working (to a fashion) but I cannot get it to wipe... (TWRP asking for password and so is Android)
Click to expand...
Sorry to hear about that! Go into TWRP, press Back when it asks for a password, then see if you can format from there. If that still doesn't work we could make a flashable zip that tries to format /data and see if TWRP would flash that.

Oh don't think it's that cuz that works fine. Pretty sure it's the vendor issue. Don't have another secondary rom with March security fixes to test but I can if ya need some testing done.

Is the encryption fix from previous posts for the ROM booting up or accessing the data partition in TWRP? I remember someone saying hopefully there will be a fix for that around Saturday?

You scared me for a sec! I didn't remember doing something with TWRP 3.0.0-2, I only have 3.0.0-1 on my toolkit.
- You're awesome too :cool:

Edit: yeah you're right, haha sorry I mistyped the -2

No I haven't, but I know it should fix the problem. I was meaning for a MultiROM TWRP 3.0.0-1 release for one of my upcoming videos. :)

trying it out for first time, are there compatibility issues for using CM based roms and google based roms together with this mod? i have PN, i want RR and DU as my extra or secondary roms etc, how unstable would it be? would both roms be affected or can i atleast use one as my d.d safely?

and also, i installed a mod to theme my twrp 3.0.0 , so is that gonna be a problem?

I used Chroma along with CM13, with zero issues. About the theme, you can try for yourself. If it works, keep it. My guess it, that it would work without issues.

Flashed the MR recovery stable 3 on MHC19i it shows storage encrypted and asks for password. Contents of internal memory not shown. Booted back to system. Did I do something wrong.

Okay, two things. First, try off with decrypted boot.img from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/stock-modified-boot-img-regular-root-t3306684

Flash the boot using fastboot. Also, use fastboot format userdata && fastboot format cache.
Finally, boot and check if encryption is disabled or not. :cool:

Or if you're not keen on losing your data (or making a back up), if you can, try waiting for TWRP 3.0.0-1 for MultiROM which should fix the encryption bug.

what about gapps? do i just flash one for all? RR uses banks gapps while PN uses dynamic, what should i do?:confused:
Click to expand...
Once you decide to add the new ROMs (PN and RR) just flash their own gapps to their own MultiROM entries.

Edit: you'll want to flash gapps for each ROM anyways. They don't carry through each MultiROM ROM.

Nope. The new builds today should fix your issue.

    TLDR:

    This project is no longer actively maintained, see explanation here.

    1: MAKE A BACKUP. Seriously.
    2: Downloads in second post. Flash recovery, then kernel, then MultiROM.
    3: Any issues: please report at https://github.com/multirom-nexus6p/multirom/issues I won't be reading this thread very often.

    35yghmf.png
    Introduction

    This is a port of Tassadar's MultiROM, a multi-boot mod for Nexus 6P. 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 and MultiROM even has its own installer system, which can be used to ship other Linux-based systems.

    This is still very experimental!

    This has been thoroughly tested with the most popular ROM's for the 6P.

    Make backups. Seriously. Please.

    Features:
    * Multiboot any number of Android ROMs
    * Restore nandroid backup as secondary ROM
    * Boot from USB drive attached via USB-C OTG cable

    Warning!

    It _is_ dangerous. 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 and you will have to flash factory images again. Make backups. Always.​

    Installation
    We have a custom built MultiROM Manager .apk in the downloads section, feel free to try it! (somewhat untested, please report, even if install doesn't work, ROM name customization, etc. should work fine)
    1. Via MultiROM Manager app
    This is the easiest way to install everything MultiROM needs. Install the app found in the next post, and select MultiROM and recovery on the Install/Update card. If the Status card says Kernel: doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch! in red letters, you have to install also patched kernel - either select one on the Install/Update card or get some 3rd-party kernel here on XDA. You are chosing kernel for your primary ROM, not any of your (future) secondary ROMs, so select the version accordingly.
    Press "Install" on the Install/Update card to start the installation.
    Accept any Super User request prompts.
    ​

    2.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.

    MultiROM has 3 parts you need to install:

    • Modified recovery (TWRP_multirom_angler_YYYYMMDD.img) - download the IMG file from second post and use fastboot to flash it.
    • Patched kernel - You can use either one of the stock ones in second post or third-party kernels which include the patch, you can see list in the second post. Download the ZIP file and flash it in recovery.
    • MultiROM (multirom-YYYYMMDD-vXX-angler.zip) - download the ZIP file from second post and flash it in recovery.


    Your current rom will not be erased by the installation.​

    Adding ROMs
    1. Android
    Go to recovery, select MultiROM -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm.​


    Using USB drive
    During installation, recovery lets you select install location. Plug in the USB drive, wait a while and press "refresh" so that it shows partitions on the USB drive. 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 USB drives takes a bit longer, because the flash drive is (usually) slower and it needs to create the images, so installation of Ubuntu to 4Gb image on my pretty fast USB drive takes about 20 minutes.
    Enumerating USB drive can take a while in MultiROM menu, so when you press the "USB" button in MultiROM, wait a while (max. 30-45s) until it searches the USB drive. It does it by itself, no need to press something, just wait.​

    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.

    Note that swapping roms between internal and external is not supported (yet). Also, after flashing a factory image to the primary system and boot partition, make sure to immediately inject MultiROM before first boot, otherwise the secondary ROMs will be deleted.

    Thanks

    Issues

    - None that are known. If you find one that this thread does not know about/hasn't answered (solid rule, read the last three pages of the thread befre reporting an issue), report it on the specific repo in question here.

    - IF YOU GET LOCKED OUT OF YOUR DEVICE: Don't worry! Your data is fine. Simply boot to TWRP, choose 'Advanced' ==> 'Terminal Command' ==> type "rm -Rf /data/system/gatekeeper.*.key" (without the quotes). This is a dirty fix, and should only be used to recover data, not as a permanent solution! After you recover your data, wipe /data (you don't have to wipe Internal Storage), and re-setup the device.

    Please report any unlisted issues to the GitHub bug tracker at https://github.com/multirom-nexus6p/multirom/issues . You'll get faster response if you post there instead of in this thread

    Extra Information
    Unlike some of the other 64-bit MultiROM ports, this port does have kexec-hardboot enabled, which is less risky and speeds up boot into secondary ROM. Anyone porting MultiROM to a Snapdragon 810 device may find the source to be useful. The patch was written by @500 Internal Server Error

    Also, due to recent events on other projects of mine, you are welcome to fork our Github repositories, and use them to port MR to new devices, and as a reference, but, I ask that no one build targeting the 6P using our source and post it publicly (of course you can build for personal use, but distribution is forbidden). Of course, I welcome and ask that anyone who wants to pull request changes in to do so!

    The only acceptable releases based on our source for the 6P is recovery/multirom themes, though, I strongly ask you tag me so I can note the themed version in the OP.

    UPDATE: I've got all the necessary repos brought up to building in a 7.1.1 tree! For those that don't know what that means, It means that MR is functioning on 7.1.1!

    Unfortunately, I've run into an issue. TWRP is unable to bind certain mounts (the most important of which being that even though /data decrypts fine, /data/media/0's bind to /sdcard/ fails for reasons I can't comprehend). This messes up everything else. Hours of debugging have yielded no results, so, I have reached out to some other developers I know in an effort to solve the problem.

    If anyone is able to help me solve the TWRP mounts issue, or wants to update multirom_adbd to 7.1.1 (an optional task which I've opted not to spend my time on), they can build In a Lineage/CM 14.1 tree. For those who can help, but don't have the resources to build, my personal builds can be found here: ods.ninja/Server/Android/angler/MR/

    I WARN those who opt to use builds from the above, I have intentionally*disabled multiboot functions in them (in essence making multirom useless so the average user doesn't use them). These are only to be used if you are able to help work out current TWRP issues.

    Thanks to all, and happy new year.

    I will be updating this soon.

    I've got most of MultiROM's issues worked out, and was planning on waiting until I had it all fully building with clang/7.1.1 sources, but, I'll concede that those things aren't /that/ useful to the end user.

    As of this next release, the recovery will be built in a CM 7.1 tree, and everything else in an Omni 6.0 tree.

    If you don't know what any of the above means... you don't need to. Just know that within the next few weeks I'll be posting a new build.

    I think StarShoot97 is testing the official version of TWRP.

    It has recently been released on TWRP's website: https://dl.twrp.me/angler/twrp-3.0.3-0-angler.img.html

    As for Multirom, I don't know, but there are some new commits on npjohnson's fork: https://github.com/npjohnson/Team-Win-Recovery-Project

    Yup. We have 3.0.3-0 working, with a usable theme (like we had previously), and, N-Block encryption (like on the 6P) works, but, we are still working on FBE support for those on the 6P using the option in developer settings, and Pixels... (hint hint).

    The MultiROM repo is also brought up to support N.

    All that is left is updating multirom_adbd to 7.1.1 so we can get ADB working on the MultiROM boot selection screen, updating Kexec-Tools (and remerging DTB support), then just updating the build system (branches, dependencies, etc.).
