OVERVIEW
ROM Installer, by JRummy Apps, is the best way to find and install custom ROMs and ZIPs. It is a must have app for any root user.
You will find more ROMs available than any other app on the Google Play Store. It has many of the same features you will find in Goo Manager, ROM Manager, ZipInstaller and other similar products.
Installing ROMs like Android Open Kang Project (AOKP), CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, Miui and others is easy. Some devices will not show as many ROMs because of the lack of support for that specific device. Please contact your ROM developer to add their ROM to ROM Installer or goo.im
ROM Installer also offers the fastest way to install the most recent recovery. All TWRP recoveries are hosted on our fast server and updated on a constant basis. No other app offers an easier way.
DOWNLOAD ROM
What is a ROM?
A ROM is a modified version of the Android OS. ROMs are often built from the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) with added features. ROM Installer offers many popular ROMs to download for supported devices, including CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, MIUI and AOKP (Android Open Kang Project). There are countless other ROMs and ZIPs you can install too.
ROM Downloads & Details
When you first open ROM Installer a list of supported device will be loaded. You must have an internet connection to list the most recent ROMs. Wifi is highly recommended when downloading ROMs because they are usually large ZIP files.
When clicking on a ROM in the list you will be presented with the ROM details page. This page offers screenshots, comments, likes, view counts, descriptions, a list of files to download and install and links to the ROM developer’s social media sites.
How To: Download & Install a ROM
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Click on the ROM Developer of your choice.
3. Under the ‘Download’ section click the ‘Download’ button from the quickaction menu.
4. The file will be downloaded in a background service and notify you when completed.
5. Once the download is complete, click the notification and it will open a new ROM Install activity.
6. In the ROM Installer select the option to wipe and backup your current ROM (optional but suggested).
7. Click install and confirm to reboot your device into recovery mode.
Tips and Tricks:
Before installing a ROM you should always know how to ‘unbrick’ your device incase anything should go wrong. Installing custom operating systems can be dangerous and rooting most likely voids your warranty. JRummy Apps Inc. claims no responsibility for any damaged or ‘bricked’ devices, loss of data or any other damage that could come from installing third party operating systems.
Always remember to have a current backup and keep your apps and data backed up. Forum members at websites like XDA-Developers or RootzWiki are helpful tools when you have questions about flashing a new ROM or ZIP.
BACKUP & RESTORE
What is a nandroid backup?
A Nandroid backup is a backup of your entire Android system saved to your SDcard. Due to the possibility of anything going wrong when changing aspects of the Android system, we highly recommend that you have a current Nandroid Backup. By having a current Nandroid backup you can manually restore your device through recovery.
How To: Create a Nandroid Backup
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Click menu -> Create Backup
3. Enter the desired name of the backup (no spaces allowed)
4. Click ‘OK’ and then confirm to reboot into recovery mode.
How To: Restore a Nandroid Backup
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Slide from left to right to open the sliding drawer.
3. Click ‘BACKUP & RESTORE’
4. Select the backup you want to manage or restore
5. Click ‘Restore’ and then confirm to reboot into recovery mode.
How To: Extract Files from a Nandroid
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Slide from left to right to open the sliding drawer.
3. Click ‘BACKUP & RESTORE’
4. Select the backup you want to manage or restore
5. Click ‘Extract’ and then select which tar file you would like work with.
6. You will see two tabs (Files, Apps). You can extract and restore app data and files from previous backups.
Tips and Tricks:
ROM Installer supports both TWRP and CWMR backups. You need to have the correct recovery installed to restore a backup (TWRP backups cannot be restored in CWMR). If you update your recovery manually don’t forget to update the recovery settings in ROM Installer.
Upgrading ROM Installer enabled the ‘Extract’ feature. This can be used to restore apps and old system files quickly. More features and planned in this section for the future.
Things You Should Know:
Creating a backup requires you to install a custom recovery. ROM Installer supports TWRP and CWM recovery. Please read more about recoveries in the ‘FLASH RECOVERY’ section.
FLASH RECOVERY
Things You Should Know:
After rooting your Android device, installing a recovery is the most important next step. What is recovery? In Android, recovery refers to the dedicated, bootable partition that has the recovery console installed. A custom recovery offers much more than the default recovery that comes pre-installed on your device. It allows you to install custom ROMs, wipe partitions and restore your phone when ‘soft bricked’. Before rooting and changing anything you should become familiar with a custom recovery.
ROM Installer goes to great lengths to get you the most recent recovery for your device. It has thousands of recoveries hosted on our fast servers to meet your rooting needs. ROM Installer is the easiest way to install your favorite custom recovery.
How To: Install a Custom Recovery
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Slide from left to right to open the sliding drawer.
3. Click ‘FLASH RECOVERY’. A list of supported recoveries for your device will be listed.
4. Select the recovery of your choice and click ‘Yes’ to confirm your install.
5. The recovery will download to your SDcard and be installed.
6. To reboot into recovery mode you can click the menu -> Reboot Recovery.
Supported Recoveries:
Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP)
We recommend that you use Team Win Recovery (TWRP). TWRP will allow you to easily install any ROM using ROM Installer. TWRP is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. TWRP is built off AOSP recovery and has the standard recovery options and much more. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Clockworkmod Recovery (CWMR)
ClockworkMod Recovery is popular and has been around for years. Unfortunately this developer blocked all other apps from using the official version of ClockworkMod recovery unless ROM Manager Premium is installed on the device. If you choose to use CWMR then ROM Installer needs ROM Manager to install custom ROMs.
After you have selected the recovery you would like to use just tap on it. The recovery will download and install.
ROM INSTALLER
Things You Should Know:
Installing multiple ZIP packages at once has never been easier with ROM Installer. You can drag and drop files to order when each flashable ZIP will be installed. Before your recovery installs any packages, you can choose to backup your current ROM and wipe data and cache partitions.
How To: Install a Custom ROM
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Download the ROM and any extra packages (Like GAPPS). Use the ROM list to navigate and install your favorite ROM.
3. Once the ROM download is finished click on the notification to open the ROM Installer
4. Select to backup your current ROM and wipe data and cache if desired/required.
5. Click ‘INSTALL’ and confirm to reboot into recovery mode and install your ROM
ROM PRE-INSTALLATION:
Backup Existing ROM: This will create a backup in your recoveries default backup directory that you can restore later. You can locate your backup in the ‘BACKUP & RESTORE’ section after you install your ROM/ZIPs.
Wipe Data and Cache: This will wipe any apps and data. It is important to backup your apps and data before installing a ROM. You can use ROM Toolbox’s App Manager or another of your favorite backup apps to easily restore app data afterward.
Install Queue: To add ZIP packages to the install queue click on the ‘ADD ZIP’ button. You can either add a flashable ZIP package via a built in file browser or from the files saved in the download database that ROM Installer manages. Once you have added your ZIP packages you can re-order them using the drag and drop feature, slide them to the right or left to remove them from the list and click them to see more information about the file.
Installing ROMs & ZIPs:
The ROM Installation depends on your custom recovery. When you click on the ‘INSTALL’ button (located at the bottom of the screen) it will ask you to confirm to reboot into recovery and install the ZIP package.
If you are using an officially built version of ClockworkMod recovery then ROM Manager is needed to install a single ZIP package. If you want to install multiple ZIP packages and also use the official version of CWMR then ROM Manager Premium also needs to be installed in order for ROM Installer to work correctly in recovery mode.
ROM UPDATES
Receiving notifications for ROM updates:
Installing the latest build of your ROM can become exciting and addicting to see the new features. The ROM Update service provided in ROM Installer checks for new ROMs on goo.im and the individual developer’s server (if enabled).
How To: Enable ROM Notifications
1. Download and install ROM Installer from Google Play.
2. Open the sliding drawer and select ‘ROM UPDATES’
3. Select the time interval (from the dropdown menu) and the time of day to run the service.
4. Make sure the Switch is set to ‘ON’
5. If an update is available you will see a notification in your app drawer. Clicking on the notification will start a new activity to download the ZIP from ROM Installer or goo.im.
GOO MANAGER
GOO Manager Features:
- Browse compatible ROMs and ZIPs for your device
- Browse and search any file hosted by hundreds of developers
- Sponsor login for faster downloads
- ROM Installer for downloaded flashable ZIPs
- Download thelatest Google Apps (GAPPS) hosted on goo.im
- Installe the latest recovery by Open Recovery hosted on goo.im
- Receive update notifications when goo.im developers add new ROMs
Things You Should Know:
The website, goo.im, is a popular hosting site for ROM developers. The Goo Manager built into ROM Installer offers all the features found in the official app from goo.im. Many of the ROMs available in ROM Installer are hosted on goo.im. For faster downloads you can donate to goo.im to get instant downloads instead of waiting 10 seconds. Donations to goo.im do not support JRummy Apps Inc.
If you would like to have direct access to the Goo Manager from your launcher you can enable this feature in ROM Installer Settings.

You forgot zipme!!
does this mean ROM manager in the Toolbox will be no longer updated? thanks
hi,
could you add PA-Google Apps? Because they offer a minimal gapps package as well. For me, i only need a few of the google apps.
Can i only resotre apps+data from nandroid backup? Or is it "advanced restore" -> "data" ?
Does Rom Installer notify me when a new recovery update is released?
1. Just added PA gapps
2. You can extract apps from a nandroid backup. Click on the backup and click extract.
3. Yes, it will notify you of recovery updates.

Ya I think its a bit lame but guess they just don't want to deal with it or what ever.
Be wary of this... I followed the instructions TO THE T yet I believe this flashed a recovery to my phone that was not from the HoS. I had to Ruu to stock to fix it. Suppose I could have done something wrong... but nonetheless. Also, when I tried doing the recovery it opened my docs... I put the .img in there and then it said I needed to put it in ETv2/prog/zo so I did so and that's when bootloader froze up on me.
Re: [TOOL] HTC Everything Tool!
Fastboot is programmed to execute 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' it flashes it the only way you can via pc, although I will look into the problem and see if its on the software side!

Uh i think u just got a bad flash. it happens once in a while. Happened to me a few months ago. Had to RUU back to stock before flashing anything cuz fastboot commands wouldn't work. and i do everything by hand. not a fan of tools.

Yeah, that must be it. No worries guys, like I said... I got it back. ^_~ I was just really scared thinking I screwed up the recovery partition or something because flashing the recoveries manually did nothing and when I tried to boot to recovery it would just go to a black screen. At that point I was unsure how to re-lock the phone without the recovery to flash my bootloader lock zip so I tried fastboot oem lock and though it gave me an error I saw that it was now "Relocked" and I was like.. "Oh crap, please RUU back to stock with stock recovery... PLEASE!" XD

Sorry to hear that. SuperCID looks a bit complicated. Pushing the files and rooting must be do-able.
Look like I'll have to wait a bit more then.

STOCK ROM JB 4.1.2 FOR BELL CANADA SGH-I757M (FLASHABLE ZIP)
*** NEW AROMA INSTALLER FOR STOCK JB 4.1.2 ***
***************************************************************************
WARNING
***************************************************************************
I assume no responsibility in the event you brick your device. Make sure you have read the instructions before flashing as they may slightly differ from what your used to.

About This ROM:
Hey guys, so Samsung has finally released JB 4.1.2 for the Bell Canada SGH-I757M, which is currently only available through the sammobile.com website and through Samsung KIES. The download zip contains a tar.md5 file and includes a 3e Recovery partition. That's bad news for those of you with a custom recovery. It will be overwritten and you'll have to go through flashing your custom recovery partition again.
So I bring you a Stock Flashable zip that won't replace your custom recovery. That way you can try the new stock rom without loosing root or your custom recovery.
The only credit I assume here is putting the zip package together which involved using @dsixda Kitchen (thanks dsixda). I also added root to this package so that you can have a fully rooted Stock Rom.

Instructions:
*** MAKE SURE YOUR BATTERY IS AT LEAST 75% OR MORE BEFORE FLASHING ***
Before you flash this ROM, you will need a custom recovery installed. I recommend Philz touch recovery found here:
[celoxhd][SGH-I757M][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch
*** UPDATED: July 31, 2013 v3 - See second post for changes ***
Those of you looking for a flashable zip for rooting that works with the tar.md5 JB rom from sammobile.com, use this one:
CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip - I did not put this package together, it was given to my be another member, but it worked when others did not.New Instructions (Aroma Installer):
Instructions for the Aroma Installer version is extremely simple, there is no need to wipe data/format cache/format dalvik-cache as the Installer will take care of that for you if you want it to.
*** ALWAYS REMEMBER TO TAKE A NANDROID AND ALL YOUR NECESSARY BACKUPS BEFORE FLASHING ***
The one zip file contains all of the modems (ICS & JB), the new playstore app (install optional) and all mods. Just download the zip file and flash it like you would any other ROM, then you will be taken through a series of installer screens that will allow you to choose which apps, mods and modems you want to install.

*** ALWAYS REMEMBER TO TAKE A NANDROID AND ALL YOUR NECESSARY BACKUPS BEFORE FLASHING ***
The one zip file contains all of the modems (ICS & JB), the new playstore app (install optional) and all mods. Just download the zip file and flash it like you would any other ROM, then you will be taken through a series of installer screens that will allow you to choose which apps, mods and modems you want to install.

MODS
Extended Power Menu MOD
To apply the Extended Power Menu MOD, download the following zip to your sdcard as it needs to be flashed from CWM:
MOD_SGH-I757M_STOCK_JB_EXTENDED_POWER_MENU.zip (19.6MB)
1. First take a nandroid backup since we are modifying system files and can easily soft brick our phone by doing this.
2. Flash the MOD from CWM, and restart your phone.
Please be aware that the phone doesn't like to start up for the first time after you flash this mod, you will get stuck at the bootloader screen (not sure why). This is easily overcome by pressing and holding your power button for a hard reset (Hold it for about 10 to 15 seconds. You will feel it vibrate). It should then get past the boot screen. If that did not get you past the boot screen, restore your nandroid backup and try again. If the problem still persists. Post a message and I'll see if I can help you out
S-Voice (like apple's SIRI)
Here is a CWM flashable zip that will install the Galaxy S4's S-Voice onto your SGH-I757M. S-Voice is Samsung's SIRI clone. It seems to work fairly well so far. Just a little slow at times. Just download this zip to your sdcard, make a nandroid backup, and flash this zip. This will install S-Voice on your device. (It may force close on you a couple of times when you first open it up. Just keep opening it up until the force closes stop).
SGH-I757M-SVoice-MOD (62.4MB)
Thanks to @cabetoguerra for finding this leaked apk. Other files and libs were gathered by me and mostly found from a zip file created by xda member zoot1.
FAQ
Q. After I flash the Rom, I get FC's (force closes) like crazy, and I'm gonna pull my hair out!
A. If you did not expressly follow the instructions above, go back and read them. You must format the system, cache and data partitions manually in addition to the regular method.
If you did read and follow the instructions and are still getting FC's. Try the whole process over again and flash the Rom twice just to make sure it fully flashed and all the scripts ran successfully.
Thanks to @4runner10 for actually having to try this
Q. I'm on a Telus network and I get no data connection.
A. Check out this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987678 for Telus APN settings as they differ from Bell APN settings.

CWM 6.0.4.8 Advanced Edition / PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.40.1
PhilZ Recovery is a CWM Advanced Edition that adds all the features you could ever miss in CWM.
It is a well proven recovery for many phones.
Please give your feedback, what works, and any bug you could encounter.
Read the features at the Main thread, and check if you are missing something.
To take a screen shot, just slide left!
And don't forget to read about powerful aroma file manager integration and double-tap shortcut (in FAQs).
How to install recovery?
From download link below, you'll get a 'recovery.img' file. Put that recovery.img file at root directory of your
sdcard. (means not in any folder)
Now, go to terminal emulator.
Give command:
Code:
su
You'll be asked to grant superuser permissions, grant it.
Now, give the following command:
Code:
flash_image recoveryonly /sdcard/recovery.img
Wait until it executes the command (4-5 seconds), it is installing the recovery.
Now, normally reboot to recovery and enjoy new recovery!

:FAQs:
Q: Wanna know about Aroma File manager?
Visit the aroma file manager main thread for more info---> Aroma file manager main thread
Aroma file manager is a touch file manager which can be used while in recovery. It has options for copy, paste, delete,
change permissions and many others. Also, it has a Terminal inside. So, if you forgot to give correct permissions to any
file you can do that directly from recovery. This file manager has got many themes, font, icons, etc. options and it's UI
is fully customizable.
Q: How to start this File manager in Recovery?
Rename the downloaded file to 'aromafm.zip'.
Create a folder 'aromafm' inside 'Clockworkmod' folder on your sdcard.
Now, move that 'aromafm.zip' file to the 'aromafm' folder.
We're ready now, when you want to use it in recovery just double tap anywhere OR go to "philz Settings" and select
"Aroma File Manager" and it will start up.
If you also want to browse /data, /system and /sd-ext then mount them in the "mounts & storage" option in recovery.
Q: Problems with Aroma file manager startup?
After doble-tapping OR selecting 'Aroma file Manager' option under 'philz settings' if recovery gives error: 'aromafm.zip
not found at /clockworkmod/aromafm' then, wait for 4-5 seconds and again select 'Aroma file Manager', because it maybe
busy mounting sdcard.
If still doesn't work, you've made mistakes in steps mentioned in first post, please do again carefully.
Q: Does your phone every time reboots to recovery?
This happens very rare when you flash the recovery using any bad app or via any wrong (not proper) method. What you can do
is:
-If you've made a backup of your current ROM then just restore only it's "boot" and then select 'reboot to system'.
OR
-You don't have a backup? Then just flash the ROM which you are using currently again and wipe 'dalvik-cache'. Then reboot
to system. Booting process will take time.
NEW: Now you can enjoy the full version of the recovery! Thanks to @Phil3759 for uploading necessary
commits for armv6. And, everything is expected to be bug-free. Please report the bug here if you find any.

Wow this should be great
I tried the recovery and it works. Installation is quick and simple and works just as described. Installing, wiping, backups, touch (up and down) and everything else works just as said. Kudos to you OP!
The last thing I wanna know:
After installing/restoring anything, can you successfully reboot to system?
You should also try Aroma File manager, it's the best part of this recovery.
Gonna Try...
@Bhargav97 i tested it , everything is working but there is one big problem , the recovery cannot reboot to system , it only reboot to recovery ,even if i shut down the device and then boot it , still stuck on recovery

Always Read OPs of a thread.
See my post #3, I've already stated that Right/Left swipe won't work yet. We're lucky to at least have a basic touch code implemented in our androidarmv6 sources. It is improving...someday if androidarmv6 developers plan to furnish the recovery touch code, right/left swipe will also be fixed. I can't fix that.

Only valid for Moto G 2014!
Hello, forum mates. I have spent few days with this great device, I gave it meanwhile to my sister as present.
ATM, there are barely any custom ROMs, so I will list here few good things to do right after unlocking its bootloader and obtaining root access :angel:
So here you can read my little checklist and do whatever you prefer:
DISCLAIMER:
Code:
[I]your warranty is now void. All you do
with your phone is on your own risk!

Unlocking Bootloader: Motorola's website
Removing startup screen with warning of unlocked bootloader: flash attached zip in custom recovery
(I can confirm that the attached zip works, it will restore the white original Motorola splash screen)
1. Boot custom recovery without flashing it:
Copy and paste custom recovery (file format: img) into your SDK/platform-tools folder, I recommend here TWRP_2.8.0.1_Titan_v2 that I have successfully tested myself. Until this point the latest Motorola USB driver must be installed on your Windows PC, USB debugging (under "developer options") on your phone must be enabled. However, I generally recommend using Linux instead of Windows. You can check in my short guide for Ubuntu users how to install fastboot and ADB in Ubuntu. I have no clue about Mac iOS, sorry.
Here we go:
Navigate in CMD line into the directory where your adb.exe is saved. Example on my PC, it is in the folder "AndroidSDK", and there in the folder "platform-tools". So my commands would be:
Typing on keyboard Win+R
Enter cmd
the command line appears after that
Code:
cd c:\androidsdk\sdk\platform-tools
Now I'm in my desired folder. The next command is checking the USB driver / ADB connection:
Connect the phone to with your PC via USB cable and enter in cmd:
Code:
adb devices
Correct response:
HTML:
xxx(serial No)xxx device
If you don't see serial No of your Moto G, check if USB debugging is enabled. If serial No is there but "offline" instead of "device" appears, you will only have to confirm the promt on your phone's screen to allow USB debugging. If nothing appears, try to update your USB driver (don't go any further without working ADB connection!)
Now we will boot into bootloader mode and check there if fastboot connection is also working:
Code:
fastboot devices
Correct response:
HTML:
xxx(serial No)xxx fastboot
If the response looks like that, we can now boot into the custom recovery without flashing it onto device. The recovery.img will be booted directly from "platform-tools" folder, while stock recovery still remains installed on the phone. My recovery.img file's name is for example "TWRP-Titan", so after I've previously saved it in my "platform-tools" I will now enter in cmd:
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP-Titan.img
The phone will boot into the beautiful touch-recovery TWRP. Blue screen is there? Yesssss!! :good:
Now we can start with backups of our still 100% stock firmware in the next chapture.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2. Backup your stock firmware:
While still in the TWRP, simply create backup of all your partitions. It is strongly recommended to save backup on the external SD card, as many modifications or next unlocking of the bootloader (if relocked) will every time blow all your data from the internal memory.
Now still in TWRP, install SuperSU.zip
Reboot into the system
Now we will backup stock recovery, that we can later flash at any point back:
Code:
adb shell (enter)
su (enter)
Look at this point on the screen of your phone, SuperSU will promt you to allow SU access for shell, You should confirm that.
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p32 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
It will save the "recovery.img" file in your /sdcard folder on your phone's internal memory. It is strongly recommended to create the new folder on your external SD card where you can move all backup img files. To move the files, use any root file browser like for example Root Browser. When you open Root Browser for the first time, it will prompt oyu to install few utilities (busybox, unrar etc) which you should allow.
At this point, your entire stock firmware has been saved as backup.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Backup all partitions of your factory image / firmware:
Just the same way as you have previously created backup of your "recovery.img" you can
create "img" backup files of all your partitions. Check the attached screenshots and simply replace in the adb shell command the number of the mmcblk0p block No with the one you desire to backup and change "recovery" to the proper partition names, just like in the screenshots:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Restore to 100% stock firmware:
To return to 100% stock, you simply need to flash (or only boot) again TWRP 2.8.0.1, to restore your nandroid backup of your stock firmware and -if custom recovery was flashed- to flash in bootloader mode your stock recovery back. Paste your (stock) "recovery.img" file into "platform-tools" folder and execute in bootloader mode:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
After that simply restore your TWRP backup of stock and flash in bootloader mode your stock recovery back. To unroot permanently, open SuperSU app and choose the option "Full unroot" under "settings".
To relock the bootloader again: reboot to bootloader mode and execute in cmd:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Your Moto G should be now again 100% stock.

EASY MODS (Moto G 2014 stock firmware)
I am myself very big fan of SlimRoms (I was AlphaBeta SlimKat tester on few devices), so I was desperately missing the "Real Dark Slim" mode (and several other mods) on the Moto G 2014 factory image 4.4.4
I had to darken my Moto G 2014, so here I share now quite easy way how to get dark UI on many apps:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
DARK UI APPS:
On the attached screenshots is an example of the "normal" Play Store (light UI) YouTube app vs the modified, dark UI YouTube app.
Luckily, the Team BlackOut consisting out of some great developers and contributors has darkened out whole bunch of apps. Please visit their website or please visit their thread where you can get more info and download directly the app TBO updater (ver.5.0.0 is up to date ATM, it is a lot better than the v.3 which was suffering of regular FCs on many devices).
With the TBO app you will find also boot animations, wallpapers etc and info how to install, the most important to avoid data loss and crying is: don't forget to create nandroid backup before modifying!
List of modified apps by the TBO available in dark UI (choice, uncomplete list):
Apollo music
Calendar
Chromecast
Drive
DropBox
Ebay
ES File Explorer
Facebook
Google now
Google+
Gmail
Hangouts
Instagram
Keep
MMS (AOSP)
Netflix
PayPal
PlayStore
WhatsApp
Skype
Spotify
Translate
Twitter
YouTube
etc.
Small tipps for the flawless un/installation of the system apps:
Regarding the fact that issues could occur when replacing the system apps (probably caused by smaller scripts which might remain as "corpses" after removing the apps) here is quite reliable way to go:
gain root access (flash SuperSU zip in custom recovery)
backup all apps that should be replaced with the darkened ones (recommended: Titanium Backup to create backup, or SD Maid to create *apk file)
now uninstall the respective apps (also with TB or SD Maid)
Open Play Store, install again and uninstall respective apps (that will remove reliably all rests)
Install the darkened apps (apk files or flashable zips that you have downloaded with TBO Updater)
Enjoy dark apps!
TROUBLESHOOTING: If anything goes wrong (bootloop, dark app FCs etc) delete darkened app and restore your app backup. I have never faced bootloop, but some apps simply might not work and will FC. Even if somebody would face bootloop, restoring the nandroid backup will revert all changes.
For normally installed apps (non-system apps): simply uninstall them through Play Store and install darkened ones instead. If TBO apps don't work, uninstall them and install again from the Play Store normal versions.

Xposed frameworks
Add hunderds of mods, change functions of your hardware buttons, add double-tap-to-sleep, make your phone to fly etc, endless mods possibilities with Xposed frameworks (main thread)
Little guide for people who never used Xposed frameworks before:
download Xposed installer apk (v. 2.7 experimental is my recommendation for 4.3 and newer firmwares)
download also Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip from the main thread (if anything goes wrong)
create nandroid backup!
install Xposed installer app
open the app and Install/Update framework
reboot
if anything goes wrong, you end up with bootloop or so, reboot recovery and flash Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip (if even that doesn't help, restore nandroid backup)
if the phone reboots fine (it should) download modules you desire to use and install them
reboot
enjoy your new, customized firmware

Second post updated (mods of stock 4.4.4 firmware)
Multiboot project is a work done by @chenxiaolong , I do not own any of the work presented over here.I just sent the author need logs.Support All Version
About Multiboot : A project to handle different ROMS at the same time so that you actually can use different ROMS without having to wipe up device to flash ROMS, it allows installation of more thn one ROM with all the features enabled.
USAGE1. First, boot into your primary ROM and install the Dual Boot Patcher app
2. Open the app and go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer. It will ask if you want to set the kernel. Make sure that you do.
3. Go to "Patch zip file" in the navigation drawer and patch the ROM or zip you want to install.

To use in-app flashing, go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the floating button on the bottom right, and add the zips you want to install. You can queue multiple zips and they will all be flashed in one go. Once you've added all the zips you want to flash, click the check mark in the action bar and they will be flashed right away.

then:
If you are CMuser ( means you have a cm12.1 , cm11 or ... on your primary rom)
and want to install another cyanogeonmod rom (cm11 , cm12.1 ...)
Select the partition configuration as "Secondary"
If you are trying to install another ROM that has a huge system
Select partiton configuration as "data slot" and select an ID for the ROM
better to be a number
(It will be installed on data partition this means it will use the device internal storage space )
and select continue and set where to place patched file .
you can add more files to patch there .
and after you are ready to patch the files tap that tick button in action bar
to start patching
Step 4
After you patched the zip ROM go ahead and navigate to ROMs from the menu
select button down corner and select patched zip you patched
and then select keep location (or if you want you can change the location ) and add more patched zips or tap the up corner tick to start install
note : if any thing wrong happend PM me on telegram and send me multiboot.log in internal storage.
Step 5
after ROM is installed
it should be selected the installed rom .
tap and switch to primary rom

INFO
Code:
Quick info
The patcher offers several locations for installing ROMs:
Primary: This is normally used for installing a zip to the primary ROM. It is not required, but is strongly recommended because it has code to prevent the zip from inadvertently affecting other ROMs.
Dual: Dual/Secondary is the first multiboot installation location. It installs to the system partition. This is a good spot for installing a second ROM because it doesn't take any space away from the internal storage.
Multi-slots: There are 3 multislots: multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3. These install to the cache partition. This is specifically for devices, like the Galaxy S4, that have a massive cache partition.
Data-slots: There can be an unlimited number of data slots. These install to the data partition and eat up space on the internal storage. This is useful for devices where the system partition is nearly full and the cache partition is tiny. These slots are named "data-slot-[id]", where "id" is something you provide in the app.
With that said, let's get to the "how to"!
First, boot into your primary ROM and install the Dual Boot Patcher app
Open the app and go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer. It will ask if you want to set the kernel. Make sure that you do.
Go to "Patch zip file" in the navigation drawer and patch the ROM or zip you want to install. You can select one of the installation locations described above.
There are two ways of flashing the patched zip file. You can either flash it normally from recovery or flash it using the in-app flashing feature. Both methods are explained below.
Flashing from recovery
To flash from recovery, just flash the patched zip file like you would for any other zip. Nice and simple.
In-app flashing
To use in-app flashing, go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the floating button on the bottom right, and add the zips you want to install. You can queue multiple zips and they will all be flashed in one go. Once you've added all the zips you want to flash, click the check mark in the action bar and they will be flashed right away.
App and data sharing
DualBootPatcher very recently got support for sharing apps and their data across ROMs. Maybe sharing is somewhat of a misleading term. The feature actually makes Android load the shared apps and data from a centralized location, /data/multiboot/_appsharing. So you're not sharing apps from one ROM to another per se. The ROMs are just loading the apps from one shared location. Let me make this clearer with an analogy.
Think of the people in a company office as ROMs. You want to share with your coworkers some documents (apps). Instead of telling them to come over to your desk to see those documents (sharing apps from one ROM to another), everyone goes to the conference room to look at the documents together (loading apps from a shared location). That's how app and data sharing is implemented.
To use app sharing, follow these steps in every ROM that you want to use app sharing:
Install the app you want to share
Open DualBootPatcher and go to "App Sharing" in the navigation drawer
Enable individual app sharing
Tap "Manage shared applications" and enable APK/data sharing for the app
Reboot
When you uninstall an app that's shared, it simply become unshared for the current ROM. That way, other ROMs are not affected. To continue the analogy above, if you quit your job, you won't shred the documents that everybody else was looking at.
If you unshare an app's data, it will go back to using the data it had before it was shared. In other words, you leave the conference room and go back to work on your own documents at your desk.
How do I...?
Switch the ROM if something doesn't work properly?
You can flash the DualBootUtilities zip from recovery. It will provide a menu interface that allows switching to the various ROMs.
If you have TWRP, you can also switch manually by tapping Install -> Images (bottom right) -> Go to /sdcard/MultiBoot/[Your ROM]/ -flash boot.img.
Wipe /cache, /data, /system, or dalvik-cache?
The easiest way is to do it from the app while booted in another ROM. Just go to "Roms" in the navigation drawer, tap the 3 dots options menu for the ROM you want to wipe, and tap "Wipe ROM".
Alternatively, flash the DualBootUtilities zip from recovery, which will also allow you to wipe a ROM.
NOTE: Don't use the recovery's built-in wiping abilities as that may delete non-primary ROMs!
Update the primary ROM?
Patch the zip for primary and flash it. The "primary" installation target is designed so that other ROMs won't be affected when you want to flash something for the primary ROM.
Update a non-primary ROM?
Patch and flash the zip exactly like how you did it the first time.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for the primary ROM?
Patch it for primary before flashing. If the zip does not wipe /cache, it is also safe to flash it directly.
Flash a mod or custom kernel for a non-primary ROM?
Just patch and flash it
thx so much inote 2 still not get work on it so sad
