How to create Dual boot with Stock 4.0.4 ICS?? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
I have been using codecROM for the past one month and i felt it was Superb. but i'm a viber user so viber isn't working on codecROM 9.1 so i had to revert back to stock ICS ROM. i have seen few posts regarding dual boot in Siyah Kernel. what i wanted to do now is as follows:
1st Boot: Stock ICS 4.0.4
2nd Boot : Any other custom ROM
is this possible..??
Currently my phone is Fully rooted.
also suggest me any ROM in which apps like viber which use wifi for calling will work for sure..
Thanks a lot guys i have learnt a lot from xda-developers

my bad ... sorry guys.. just now i came across this thread.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709686 so according to tht dual boot is not supported by ICS... what if i update to 4.1.1(jelly bean)?? then how to dual boot??

Once you upgrade to jelly bean you will have to install siyah kernel, the latest version to be able to dual boot. Read through the siyah kernel thread under original android development, it'll explain everything.

MIUI ICS v 4

Hey guys, I have managed to setup MIUI v4 on my SGS2 with success and its brilliant.
I have two questions, first I feel the ROM is a bit sluggish at times, is it a kernel related? cuz it says my base band is LPQ and the software is based on LP7 ?!
I tried flashing different kernel LP7~LP3 and didn't work out, and got boot loop.
Second, is there anyway to enable Screen tone in video layer like in Samsung stock ROM? thx

CWM Problems

Hi all!
I'm sorry if this question been asked before! which i see it has ! But I'm confussed to what to do! As there are several different answers to the same question ???????
So this is my problem!
I have a Galaxy s2 i9000 which i updated the ROM to Resurrection Remix ICS v1.0 by westcrip. a few months back!
All went ok. Rooted phone using odin and “CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5.tar” from galaxy s2 root.com.
got it all working and all great till It came to other day! I wanted to udate to Resurrection remix 2.6 or v3.0 ??
But when it came to CWM - it kept coming up with
This version of CWM Manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. It appears you are running a different kernel. Various features have been disabled.
including the backup and recovery! I've tried ROM manager too. that says that I have CWM 2.5.1.2 and also CWM touch not available for this device. my phone is rooted. I have Su0.93,busybox v1.17.1
BUT NO JOY !! I tried to backup on there too and just takes me to CWM with no backup on the menu..
I always like to do a backup in case of problems! But cant in this case!
I read that flashing kernel could work! But as I'n not 100% which one to use! I'd be happy of any advise! I really would like to update now! As Res V2.6/v3 look great! so does the Salman ICS ROM..
I was thinking of flashing Siyah Kernel v.3.3.2 for Galaxy S2 i9100! [ICS] - but read somewhere this has problems with Res v2.6..
Can some1 please just tell me in simple terms, What is the best way to go about doing this! and if have to use new kernel which one and where?? I really would be most grateful of the help !!
Many Many thanks in advance .. A person who don't want to mess his much loved s2 up !!!!

Dual Boot on S3 I9300 Change 1st ROM

Hi,
Should be a fairly easy quick question
I'm running Siyah 1.8 Kernel on my phone to have dual-boot, which I really like as I can use a lightweight ROM for gaming and things and also have my stock features to hand as well.
However have decided I have tired of Stock and would like to use CyanogenMod JB 4.2 as my primary ROM and stick with my current WanamLite as secondary.
Are there any issues with flashing a new Primary ROM with CWM and keeping the 2nd ROM as it is?
Thanks

The Siyah thread gives you instructions on how to flash CM 4.2. If I remember well you can only have it as 2nd ROM (??). If so, than you can just select in STweaks to boot always into 2nd ROM for instance. To keep your WanamLite version, just swap 1st & 2nd ROM.

[Q] Dorimanx Kernel + Neat ROM Lite 4.0 refuses dual boot

Hi everyone
My issue is somehow strange, I performed a clean install (full wipe, etc..) with Dorimanx Kernel 7.43 of Neat ROM 4.0 (XXLSJ) as primary ROM
When I install secondary ROM, Neat ROM boot loops and get stuck on the first Samsung bootanimation (where the logo is being drawn again and again)
I fixed permissions for secondary ROM, but still no boot, neither primary, nor secondary
I thought that ROMs are independent but seems like I'm wrong
Now I'm hesitating to retest the same with 7.44 kernel and 4.1 ROM (XWLS8)
What Have I messed ?
PS:
I reflashed my ROM and my phone is working fine, this thread is not about solving bootloop (with hundreds of threads dedicated here), it's about dual booting
Dorimanx doesn't support dual boot with any Samsung jelly bean roms currently
So it's kernel related, I did not notice this detail when flying over the changelog or the infinite number of replies :silly:
Thank you for the quick answer...
Try this Siyah MCM Kernel ver 3.0.60
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cm10i9100vsync/files/kernel/
I believe it is smoother than the Dorimanx Kernel and it supports dualboot.
Tha'ts the Kernels XDA thread:

Not exactly sure what Conny has posted, but just incase you didn't know dual boot can't work with any siyah or dorimanx kernel till the dev fixes it, and only siyah 6 beta 1 or above and dorimanx v3.37 or above work with samsung jelly bean

1Chef is right, I thought Neatrom published a 4.2.1 release
Considering neatrom is based on stock Samsung and not aosp then it can't have released 4.2.1
Got another bootloop while trying (hopfully) the new setup (7.44 + 4.1.2 XWLS8), nothing happened
I think that siyah will give the same result as Dorimanx is forked from, maybe with latest stable future release of Siyah, it could be fixed.
Now, I got tired from re-re-re-re-reflashing my phone :silly:
I'd better wait
Newbie Takes The Plunge to Custom Rom and Kernel: Any Suggestions?
I'm still fairly a newbie, but have rooted two phones so far, thanks to the great information, tutorials, guides, resources, and videos posted here on XDA. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 and my daughter's Samsung Epic 4G.
I rooted my I9100 successfully a few months ago, but have never flashed a rom. I'm going to try out Neat Rom Lite tonight. I've finally gotten up the nerve!
QUESTION: Does anyone have any suggestion of which kernel I should flash along with it? I need better battery life. I would love to be able to watch videos and use the phone regularly and make it through the whole day without charging. Is this possible? Can a kernel and Neat Rom Lite do this for me?
Also, I rooted the Samsung Epic 4G yesterday. Any suggestions on what rom and kernel to put on it and how would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch for any assistance and comments.

Which ROM to install to P7500 3g?

Hello everyone
I'm thinking to install a custom ROM to my P7500 3g but still not sure which one. I specially want to play my 720p brrip movies on my tablet. Any good roms to recommend? btw i used overcome rom like last year,the first release i think. it was good but couldnt follow the hack scene since.
If you have no special needs not covered by stock rom i would advice to stay on stock rom.
GV
Well the stock rom starts on lagging on me lately and uses too much of the ram.Plus since I havent heard of jelly bean coming to the tab 10.1, i wanted to try the custom roms.do you recommend the cm 10.1 or the overcome rom?
I have no personal experience with other Roms on my P7500 but i have tried cm10 on my other Android devices. From what i read on the xda forum i am not at all sure that another rom (ICS or JB) will improve my Tab rsponsiveness. My Tab runs currently extra smoothly with stock 3,2 HC rom, rooted and overclocked with setcpu app using Pershoot's kernel (thanks)
GV
Be very careful .. I bricked my first tab by simply putting an american rom on it by accident. When I went to factory reset from the recovery it triggered DSOD and locked the device.. A very rapid learning curve indeed!!
aaanyway....
Been on CM10.1 for a week now on my GT-P7500.. fast , buttery smooth and a pain free install....make a nandroid backup from recovery first !! do a wipe and factory reset afterwards. I love the look and feel of it now... mmmm shiny
Thanks for the reply caramel.Ok i'll install the CM 10.1 too I'm using 4.0.4 now.In Galaxy s2 the 4.0.4 has a wipe data bug, bricks the device.Does the tab has that too?

IF you've flashed a custom recovery, there's no worry with the emmc bug.
