I posted about this a couple of times in the multirom thread but I never got and answer so I thought I might post about it here in the q&a.
My question is when/how do I install the kezec hard boot kernel during the multirom setup /install? As in do i install it before i install multirom? Do i inject the boot.img after?
I didn't really get how to do it from the instructions and I'm quite wary about doing things I don't understand.

There isn't a kernel in the Multi-boot package, so are you referring to installing a 3rd-party one? It's probably most convenient to have that installed beforehand, because you will need to do the installation differently otherwise.
He says in his post that from multirom v3 onwards multirom uses some kexec-hardboot thing and that u need a patched kernel. Thanks for youre reply anyway

Right, pretty sure most devs have patched their kernels so most should work.

This is just a quick question,
I am running 4.2 Jellybean on my Nexus 7, and wanted to flash a custom kernel. That supports 4.1.1/4.1.2 and the kernel hasn't been updated by the OP. So, if I flashed it, would me Nexus work? Would it be fine?
Thanks. -cburk
I think I heard that it will indeed work. I suggest you just try it, but first, make a nandroid!!!

Hi everybody! I am quite new so please show some understanding recently I rooted, unlocked boot loader and installed rasbeanjelly ROM and trinity kernel. After a couple of days using it I decided to install Franco kernel.. So I downloaded it and installed it (thought so). When I boot up my nexus 7 the boot animation was still from trinity kernel, so I installed it again but same results. Please help :/ I install the kernels with CWM touch. Thanks in advance
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
i installed mine with fastboot because as far as i know the kernel file was an .img file and not zip (which it has to be for using cwm).
but donot forget to wipe your davlik cache after installing the new kernel.
It's beacuse the Franco kernel doesn't have a boot animation but you can flash the file i added to this post.
There is both ways to install the kernel, also with .zip! I cannot post the link right now because I don't have posted 10 times but I can send it by pm . thanks though

Hey guys I have recently rooted my Nexus 4 and left the stock rom on it. Now a few days later I am experiencing issues mainly with apps that change settings, like juicedefender or a cpu speed app.
I have done some research and according to juicedefender error log it shows I need to have busybox or I should have CyanogenMod.
Ok i hav 3 questions
1. Will installing busy box cause me to lose any data?
2. I know installing CyanogenMod ROM will clear all my data is there a way for me to backup need for speed and bad piggies?
3. Is there a way for me to keep my stock rom and fix these problems?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Since you're rooted all you need to do for backups is download Titanium Backup and use that to keep all of your data.

You will probably want to start with a stable release before jumping into a nightly. Nightly build aren't really known for stability.

To update cm all you need to do is download new rom, boot to recovery, flash rom and gapps, wipe cache, reboot. Of course this only applies if the rom base hasn't changed, which is infrequent.

Ok hmmmi think u might not be getting what i am saying lol sorry. What i am getting hung up over is does flashing wipe my data? And do cm updates wipe my data?

If you are going to flash cm for the first time a wipe is required. Usually wipes aren't required when flashing a newer version of a Rom.
But will it wipe data automatically? No. Wiping data is an option you have to confirm in recovery.
Is that what you are asking?

Thanks thanks i will be flashing cm soon, thx so much yall. Sent a donation to mskip for making it so easy to do all this.

I am using Purity 4.4 + Matrix 11.5 right now.
Now my question is how do you guys update your respective ROMs instead of flashing newer versions through recovery? I tried GooManager but it didn't work for me :-|
You should ask in thread about your rom. If devs do not do OTA update you must use recovery to update rom
I think most use recovery
Sent from my Nexus 4
Download updated ROM zip file and flash through recovery (TWRP for myself).

Well being a new member, I am not actually allowed to ask in ROM threads, that's why I asked here.

not for Purity. You must update through custom recovery.

It's not hard but sometimes you get too lazy
Simple. Set up VM environment there are simple walkthrough video and once your set up you can pull straight out of the devs or any branch. I do my own when I feel I need to add a feature I do. There are a major variety of bases to choose from. Its much easier than many think. In my opinion its safer as I know exactly what I'm getting. Not to mention an addiction lay within too. Lol Have fun bro. Welcome to the machine. Many new devs are so stoked when the first ROM they build is complete they can't stop. Lol peace.

I do know stuff about Android development but I am too scared to try that kind of stuff. Can you link me to those tutorials or videos?
On Stock ROM (KOT49H), rooted, xposed.
Whenever I try to flash Hells Doctor Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/kernel-mod-hells-doctor-r8-t-r-d-s-mod-t2548872 via CWM (have latest version), installation gets aborted due to set_perm error (code 7). Kindly help.
Are you running the latest recovery on your phone?
Yes. I already mentioned that.

Sorry, I meant to say try TWRP. I have never had any issues using TWRP.

No problem here with latest TWRP and stock Rom.
Cwm has some issues though.

Thanks, it worked
TWRP works fine.. thanks..
One more quick question, if I install TARDIS mod patch, will it affect when I move to another kernel on the same ROM?
Kernel patches need to be re-applied each time you change the kernel.
