[GUIDE] Dualboot CM13 and TouchWiz on Samsung Galaxy S6 - Galaxy S6 General

/* INFO */
Hey guys, yesterday I've been able to dualboot CM13 and TW on my Galaxy S6. I didn't try all possible combination and will update this thread with your experience.
/* DISCLAIMER */
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices.
/* WHAT YOU NEED */
1. A Custom Recovery (TWRP or PhilZ Touch)
2. a TouchWiz ROM
3. The Dualboot Patcher : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447534 (Download the APK)
4. CM13 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/orig-development/cyanogenmod-13-galaxy-s6-t3269984
/* INSTALLATION STEPS */
1. Make a nandroid backup in case anything fails. (optional if you like playing with fire like me)
2. Install the Dualboot patcher.
3. In the patcher, go to the ROMs section, and a popup will ask you to set the kernel. Do it.
4. In the patcher, go to the Patch ZIP file section, open your CM13 zip file and patch it (and GAPPS) to install in data and select zerolte in the device section. Patch the zip. (See known issues)
5. Restart in recovery, flash the patched zip files (ROM and GAPPS). Restart your phone.
6. It will now boot onto CM13, once you've completed your first boot setup, install the dualboot patcher.
You are now able to select which rom to boot from the ROMs section. Once you've selected which rom is the default, restart your phone. Voilà!
/* KNOWN ISSUES */
- If you are getting a bootloop booting your secondary rom, reflash the kernel of your primary slot and reset your kernels. You can then reset your kernels and wipe data/cache of your secondary rom from the app.
- Patch your CM13 ROM to install in the data slot. (Some TW roms take too much space in system). (See 2nd screenshot)
- You need to flash CM13 on an EXT4 partition. F2FS isn't supported.
/* SPECIAL THANKS */
@sktjdgns1189, @tdcfpp and @arter97 for their hard work on CM13.
@chenxiaolong for the dualboot patcher.
@dovah Testing CM13 as secondary ROM and discovering the system partition issue.
@ktetreault14 For giving me the information about the data partition not being wiped on factory reset.
/* SCREENSHOTS */

Definitely going to try this later today, but with TW as my first ROM.
Don't forget to make a nandroid backup, just in case anything fails

Please let me know if it works, i will update the OP. Since CM13 is subject to a lot more updates than TW, i think it would be a lot better to install it as secondary but i don't know if patching the zip works, since arter97's kernel and back-to-n0t3 rom didn't work
I will add a section for nandroid backup aswell

Gonna try this too on 925F and WETA ROM as primary (with Hacker kernel). Will update this if it works.

I have been in contact with chenxiaolong regarding this device for awhile. Arters kernel doesn't work because of his own dualboot implementation interfering with the patcher.

Yes i remember being in contact with you on that old cm12 whatsapp group from mythos. I'm wondering why arter's cm kernel works, he still has his own dualboot implementation. Maybe setting the first kernel without patching the zip file works. We'll have to investigate.

Which rom(s) is/are working as TW base?
Thanks for the guide!

I patched Xtrestrolite myself, but i know that others would work.

Works with XtreStoLite 2.4, thanks for clear instructions

Working like a charm on my 925F! Thank you so much!

Thanks, another question.
Has anybody tested to dual boot it with stock rom rooted + CM13 as secondary? Would find that combination interesting
If nobody has tested it, could it work?

We're still unsure since Arter has his own dualboot method implemented in his kernels. It could work, it could not work.... still waiting for feedback to update the thread!

We know for a fact that back-to-n0t3 can't be patched. It could work as primary rom and set the kernel like i did with CM13, but we're still not sure if patching cm13 works lol.

I tried using TW as primary and CM13 as a secondary ROM, no dice sadly... It fails flashing CM, I'll have a look at the log to see if I can work out why, but it seems that running CM as primary will be the easiest option for most users.

Thank you for the clarification. So CM13 can only be a primary rom as we speak. I'm wondering if we flash an update over it, if it will override our secondary rom since it is stored in the system partition. I think there is an option to store the secondary rom in the data partition, we'll need to do some testing here again. Thank you for your information dovah

No problem ! Yeah some testing will be needed as new versions of CM come out, but it shouldn't be too complicated, I believe that in the dualboot app, there is a way to modify the primary ROM so that it doesn't erase the secondary one !

I don't think it would work since it is the same way of patching a zip file...
I would love if arter could remove his own dualboot implementation to use this app instead. I know he's more into fancy and complicated ways, but this application will help the community to provide feedback.

Yeah I tried it with rooted Stock TW as primary but it fails flashing the CM13 zip.
I had a look at the logfile
Some errors occurs on unmounting, so I tried unmounting everything first and flash via sideload, no luck.
I think this is the first error (I checked via adb shell and the path /tmp/install doesn't even exist during flash)
Code:
[D] update-binary-tool: Mounted /mb/system.img at /system
about to run program [/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh] with 2 args
/tmp/install/bin/backuptool.sh: cd: line 112: can't cd to /tmp/addon.d/
md5sum: can't open '*sh': No such file or directory
Then it has a chain of these
Code:
[W] /system/multiboot/dual/system/bin: Failed to create directory: No space left on device

I didn't see the link to v.1029 but I did see it over at tegratabs. Also you mention in the post over there that flash does not work? does that mean the flash apk from the folio does not work with this build... that would keep me from installing from the 1106 update...
And lastly just to echo so many others, Thanks for your hard work on tracking this stuff down and packaging it up... you have really helped make an unusable device quite awesome.

Sorry, that is from early on when we did not have the flash apk. Maybe I'll add that to a new build if I get a chance. I have been working on getting the next version of zpad which should have flash stock.
You can definitely use flash on zpad if you add it yourself.
Do I need to flash .01 thru .03 and the 1106 or just .03 and the 1106?
Also over at tegra.com board there is a very easy way to flash clockwork onto this badboy, it is the last post in the clockwork thread posted by photonmedia
I think if you use the v.1029 update.zip it has everything... otherwise I did the .3 and then the 1106.. and then just copied the flash apk and ran it to install it.
I am very happy with this so far... very stable
@Rothnic ,
is the v.1029 the same as 1106 update?
thanks

I'm having a problem with the 1106, it is saying that the boot.img is corrupt and wrong crc #? Anyone know what to do?

what steps are you using?
what are you flashing from ?
are you using cwm?
Yes I'm CWM 8, I'm using the install from sdcard then choose update.zip, I choose the one I want. Then it says "assert failed: package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img")
Error in sdcard/update.zip

It sounds like something is messed up with either the update or clockwork. I'd try reapplying clockwork recovery and redownloading the update.zip.

v.1029 is a total package of v.1029 boot.img plus system.img. Zpad Clean 0.3 is just a cleaned up version of this total package.
I only have the 1106 boot.img at the moment that still works with the v.1029 system.img. I am working on getting the whole 1106 firmware.
One option you can do is take the 1106 boot.img and paste it into the update.zip for v.1029 Zpad Clean 0.3.

That is what I tried and that is where I get the error that it is corrupt and the bad CRC #(all 0's) using winrar. I am using my work computer and if you know about Altiris it won't even let me use the Altiris Image Explorer on it the boot.img
hopefully here someone can help me out, anyone got a link to that specific task manager, i cant seem to find it on the market?
Wipe Data/Cache
I'm sure this is obvious to many of you, but what exactly is meant by "you must wipe data/cache"? What specific action do I need to take -- is there a menu option in recovery mode or is this something I need to do from the Settings menu in the TapNTap interface?

in clockworkmod recovery these are things you do before flashing a new rom.
Got it now, don't know what was going on with it going on my computer to tablet. I just downloaded straight to tablet and moved the zip to the root of the internal sdcard and it worked. Also has anyone ran benchmark with this rom cause I did and its not very good 525. Anymore possible tweaks/lag fix coming?

i think that has to do with the drivers being young - the tegra2 hardware is really new. the only other rom that is "fast" is cyanogenmod and i don't think it will bench much higher.

That shouldn't be a quadrant score. Those tend to be in the 1800+ range.
1106
Sorry for the Noob question but how exactly to I "flash" the 1106 boot.img file? I've successfully installed the v.03 update and everything's fine except the time/date resets on reboot. Just can't seem to figure out how to do the next step
Also, has anyone tried the Subsonic app? Can't get it to work on this version although it did work on TnT Lite. It's the best app I've seen so far for streaming music from my home server, both home and away on all our devices (iTouch, DX, and now Gtab.)
I do appreciate the hard work everyone on these forums has provided with customizing this tab and helping with problems. Man this tablet would be 100x better if some of the folks on this forum and the tegra forum were involved in getting this tab developed. Here's hoping that Viewsonic provides us with a decent firmware update.

*with R13 certain builds of google apps will cause a no boot situation if you wipe /data and install the rom and gapps together before booting android. Setup wizard craps out and never gives you a usable system. TO FIX: wipe data and cache, install rom, then boot to android BEFORE flashing gapps. from android reboot to recovery and install gapps and you'll be golden.

A few things I noticed:
- External micro SD detects in storage including size of card, freespace, etc but won't let me do anything beyond that. Titanium Backup won't detect the card at all. I can write files to it on Windows 7 but it won't let me read files from it.
- Same sound issue as on the 4.3 ROMs (up pitch audio). Tested with YouTube.
- Other stuff outside of camera and NFC seem to work just fine from testing.
Clean flash using the latest CWM for the Sero 7 Pro.

Downloading as we speak. I Don't use the camera or nfc much right now anyway so i'll give it a run. I admire all of the work that's been done with this. I wish I had the time to learn all the intricacies and inner workings to be able to contribute.
For some reason when I go to install, I get stuck in a boot loop. I'll mess with it when I get home and see. Trying to do this while at work.

I was only able to test for 5 min this morning but here's what I noticed:
1. HDMI is broken as it was in jellytime, all output is forced portrait.
2. When using the tablet in landscape the text of the icons on the home screen are cut off. Probably an alignment issue.

Wow, this is so much better than the previous build. You deserve a beer.
I don't use NFC or camera that much. So this is almost ready as my daily driver. Could you make fixing the SD card issue your next target?
Thanks.
About to test drive this as my first rom for my brand new s7p. Will report back if I have any issues that haven't been mentioned yet.
ETA: Nvm, can't figure out how to mount the sdcard to throw those zips on it. My buddy I bought this from rooted it for me so it's running CWM 6something already. Can't mount sd from recovery, can't paste files when connected normally as I get some sort of error about the device being disconnected.
going to try this out. what seems to be the problem with camera? is it the modules? or something else? have you tried vermagic and repacking them as a zip?

I'm pretty sure the root is fine. It's windows not recognizing the device properly for some reason.
I am really liking the fact that I can run 4.4 on this tablet. One bug I have run into however is that I can't get .mp3 files to play from memory using Apollo or Google music player. When I try to play a song the system freezes.
I'm not complaining though! Just wanted to report a bug.

Well, the original dev made superuser inbuilt in settings which was not giving proper root rights. So, i removed superuser. That fix zip, is an updated version of settings without that root column in advanced>tool section. Also, flash the fix zip after first boot, after setting things up. If you flash it right after flashing the rom, setup wizard will force close. Good luck ?

Use the latest one (v2). It works fine without any issues. Also, more io schedulers are there in it. ?

so what im going to do now is
wipe > flash rom > let it boot > reboot to philz > flash fix zip > flash WR-kernel
or shall i reboot again after flashing fix zip then reboot then philz then flash WR-kernel?
sorry im noob
How can I go to recovery mode? After I flashed the rom zip, When I click volume up and down it goes to Factory Mode? Or maybe the combination is changed?

rom cant detect internal sd card. Also Mp rio repartition doesnt work
Problem solved. Turns out Wiko has emulated partition and the internal storage can be used for both apps and files

This problem is with most of the ROMs based on wiko due to emulated partition. You'll be notified as soon as we get any fix for it.
And no need to repartition internal storage on wiko base, it can be used for both purposes, as app memory and as internal storage.
FIxed storage issue
I eventually fixed storage issue, now 3rd party apps like es file explorer detect internal sd. Full rom will be updated soon with all the bugs fixed (including bluetooth soon) Stay tuned guys!
All the bugs eventually fixed by me, even the storage issue which has been causing trouble to us since a long time. Enjoy!

Hello,everyone.
I am simply sharing this with others! All the credit goes to the person who made this build!
The original thread is HERE(if you cant enter the page,turn on VPN as US,and it will work)
I reuploaded the build because one had to make several chinese accounts in order to download the rom at only 200 kb/s,which was extremely bothersome and time-consuming.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.Wipe Dalvik,System,Data and Cache
2.Flash the rom(it will most likely fail)
3.Reboot the recovery
4.Flash the rom again,without previously wiping anything(wiping directly before flashing it will cause errors while installing,for unknown reasons)
5.Flash this boot.img(the stock one boots only on 1806 variant):https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911971047
6.Reboot,and let the system fully boot
7.Boot into recovery
8.Flash Gapps
9.Reboot​

Nice!! Going to flash now!
EDIT: ROM works flawlessly, very snappy. I didn't flash the boot.img because my phone would go into a bootloop. ROM works fine without it at least for my device(6045O)
Thanks @The Marionette.

Whe have to debloat chinese apps and install Playstore.

Tried to flash the rom from external sdcard with TWRP but encountered a mount error. Any advice?
Note: appears the error doesn't affect the installation. Nevermind.

To fix google account and apps install under playstore, you have to comment line in build.prop BEFORE install gapps.
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint= blablabla
just add # at the begin like this:
Code:
#ro.build.fingerprint= blablabla
and then, install open-gapps 5.1.
it work fine for all regions
For better battery lifetime, you can take ramdisk from Flyme and Arde Dev CM zImage.

[GUIDE] Android 9 Pie AOSP phh-treble ROM

The purpose of this thread is to describe treble ROM installation process for Mi Max 3 with specific detail for AOSP phh-treble, for a user to be able to get all required instructions in one place.
What does not work (everything else is supposed to be working):
VoLTE (did not have a chance to verify, reported for other GSI ROMs)
Stock camera does not auto-rotate photos (use third party camera)
Equalizer (MusicFX)
Disclaimer: Everything you do is your own risk. GSI is ARB-agnostic, since it does not contain firmware.
Prerequisites:
Bootloader unlocked
Data backed up (factory reset is required in the process). NB: if you had screen locked while backing up with recovery, this guide to reset the lock may be helpful some day in the future
TWRP 3.2.3 (other recoveries may work as well) installed
Xiaomi.eu Android Pie ROM installed
Note:Xiaomi.eu with Android Pie is required.
Skills required:
TWRP - flash zip files
Archive tool (like ZArchiver, to unpack XZ system image)
Steps:
Choose and download the "arm64-aonly" system image - with or without root and gapps. I used system-arm64-aonly-vanilla-nosu.img.xz from phh-treble releases page
Decompress system image using archiver tool, we need .img to flash
Download opengapps x64 nano or pico for Android Pie (this step is for vanilla system)
Download phh-treble-pie-fixes-minimal.zip for Bluetooth, camera2 and vendor fingerprint (the file is attached to FP)
Make sure your data is backed up
Make sure Xiaomi.eu ROM is already installed, or reinstall using respective instructions
Reboot to recovery
Install - select image type - select phh-treble .img file - select system partition - install
Install - select zip type - select opengapps archive - install (for vanilla image, this is not needed for image with pre-baked gapps)
Install - (make sure /vendor is mounted) select zip type - select phh-treble-pie-fixes-minimal.zip from this post below (to fix brightness, camera2 api and bluetooth)
Factory reset, note: google setup needs gapps-su build or you can dirty flash (restore /data from backup)
Reboot system, fingers crossed for several minutes. If the system does not boot for 2 minutes, you probably did not perform some step correctly
bonus material: one can re-arrange soft buttons following instructions from this post https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...icons-or-re-arrange-the-buttons-without-root/
bonus material: one can adjust auto brightness by issuing "settings put system screen_auto_brightness_adj 0.4" via ADB shell, where 0.4 is any value between -1 and 1
Note: to completely unroot, execute /system/bin/phh-securize.sh via adb root shell
Thank you!
So if I have Xiaomi.eu stable and go back to beta 8.10.25 (with ARB activated) I will be able to install this AOSP ROM ?
Before MI MAX 3 I got a OP3 so ARB is my nightmare.
I am dreaming of AOSP ROM installed. Is much better than that MIUI.

Yes, you can. Treble roms can be installed on ARB and NON-ARB roms.
Battery life looks decent so far

Tried both phh-treble 8.1 and 9.0. GSI roms can be flashed one over another (factory reset may still be required for downgrade 9->8.1)
New Pie release with November security patch and some fixes
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases/tag/v107
Hello guys.I own mi max 3 with unlocked bootloader, and installed xiaomi.eu stable.I would like to transform it to stock android device.Is this roms are stable for daily use, without fail, or battery drain?
Is it possible to make more detailed steps for newbies like me.. thank

Hi @galev_90, it's stable with known issues - bluetooth and brightness need a fix described in the first post. MTP (usb file transfer) does not work (the patch may exist, did not try any), volte - probably does not work.
To get more specific instructions, one needs to explain what is not clear from what is already described. It may be helpful to read phh-treble thread by phhusson as well.
Allready instaled pixel experience rom on my mi max3 via another guide.evrythings work fine, and i test it

Link pleased.
It is not in this forum.Maybe link will be problem..
Instruction updated for latest Xiaomiu.eu baseline. MTP is fixed in 8.11.29 vendor.
Patch prepared for direct flashing via TWRP.
What does the patch do?
Edit: nevermind - found it in the OP: phh-treble-pie-fixes.zip - fixes auto brightness and bluetooth
