I'm NOT the developer/creator of this app/method. Chenxiaolong is. Here's the link to the official thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447534
Credits: @chenxiaolong - This guy is just great. Our device required many additional hacks and changes to work because of its crappy closed-source update-binary and closed-source Mediatek sources. This awesome dev had to work a lot to get this work fully on our device. Yes, he did. Debug builds, logs, debugging, reworking and all, and he never stopped. That's just amazing. So, I want to thank him wherever you see his post and if you can PLEASE donate as your token of appreciation. :good::fingers-crossed:
@911-Future_Maker Some help and tips in the initial stages.
@FeyoMx Initial helps since my phone wasn't rooted then.
Me. No I'm not exaggerating. I did my fair share of work in testing debug builds and providing logs and testing again. So, press thanks if this worked for you :victory:
Disclaimer:
Neither I nor the dev is responsible for any damage this app does to your device.
You MUST have a nandroid backup in case something bad happens.
Only do something after the whole thread a few times.
Yes, this is true multibooting. Install as many ROMs as our internal storage allows. I can't install more than 3 ROMs (on extsd-slot) as I have a lot of apps.
Here's the procedure:
1- Download the latest version of the app from https://snapshots.noobdev.io and the DualBootUtilities.zip (https://snapshots.noobdev.io/DualBootUtilities-8.0.0.r2162.gc717564.zip)
Note: Only version 8.0.0.r2157.g7d47ab8 and newer completely supports our device.
2- Select ROMs from the navigation drawer of the app on the left
3- Grant supersuser/root rights when it asks
4- Click "Set kernel" if it is asked.
5- Click the three-dot menu on the first ROM, which will be your current ROM.
6- Scroll down and click update ramdisk
7- Reboot
8- Select "Patch Zip file" from the navigation drawer
9- Press the + button and select the zip of the ROM you want to install.
10- Select the slot to which you want to install the ROM.
Take either a data-slot or an extsd-slot.
I recommend using an extsd-slot because the internal memory gets full very fast. Even if you install to extsd-slot, only /system/ is stored on the SD card because having data and cache as image files on the SD card shortens its lifespan by almost a week.
11- Patch the GApps, Xposed or any other zip you want to install to this ROM the same way giving the extsd-slot number you gave for the ROM.
12- Install the patched zip. There are two ways:
I) in recovery (highly recommended)
II) through the built-in zip flasher. Click on the circle in the ROMs page. Add the zips with the plus button. Click the tick.
13- Reboot. It'll automatically reboot the new ROM if it was installed successfully.
14- Voila!! You are now multibooting!
To switch between ROMs, you need the Dual Boot Patcher app on that ROM. Navigate to ROMs, and click you ROM you want to switch. A tick will appear.
Reboot.
EDIT: Forgot about app sharing. Here it is
App Sharing:
Yes, this feature allows you to share the data of your apps across the ROMs. That means you'll have your Chrome tabs open as you left it in the other ROM. Cool !
Instructions:
1- Navigate to App Sharing settings in the navigation drawer.
2- Select "Share individual apps" and reboot.
3- Select the apps you want to share in "Manage shared apps" and select "Use shared data".
4- Reboot to the same ROM. This is very important. If you switch ROMs, you'll lose your data and you will have uncheck "Use shared data" to get it back.
5- Reboot to the ROM with which you want to share data.
6- Install the app if it isn't installed.
7- Do the same as steps 2, 3 and 4 in that ROM. Yes, rebooting to another ROM there can also result in data loss.
8- You will now have the same data across all those ROMs :victory:
I've tried sharing WhatsApp, Google Chrome, a game and Tapatalk and all these work perfectly fine.
Bugs:
I haven't seen any (of the app, do NOT report ROM bugs here)
If you find any, provide logs. If it was while installing provide the recovery.log from TWRP>Settings>Copy logs to SD
If ROM not booting, flash GetLogs.zip from the website (link: https://snapshots.noobdev.io/misc/getlogs/GetLogs-20160120.zip)
If a ROM is not booting, don't worry, reboot to recovery, and flash the DualBootUtilities.zip and switch to primary ROM.
N.B.: The touch screen doesn't work in AROMA on our device. So, navigate using volume buttons. It's a bit weird, but you'll get you used to it.
Yes, it's risky. That's why you should have a nandroid backup.
I'll try to help you as much as I can, but I'm not a dev. So, if you provide logs, I'll see and if it is something new, I'll tell the dev. He is usually busy.
N.B.: This whole post was written on my phone, so it's bad, I know. I'll edit it when I get time.
Please press thanks if I have helped you.
Good guide but if the roms support sdcard as default storage then its worth dual booting
Congrats for this great tutorial my friend! I'm sure it will help many peeps having questions around. Also thanks for mentioning me in the credits.

Why? You can dualboot no matter what's your default write disk. You must just have enough free space. Using 4 roms currently, my default disk is internal storage and my primary rom has a tons of apps installed. Btw @sandeep.sethi I'm having problems trying to dualboot your latest AICP rom. :laugh: 5 fast vibrations and back to recovery.

To be honest 4 roms are overkill, 3 roms can serve me just fine.

This is easy. I'll guess you're installing MIUI or CM right? Because these roms usually contains this limitation about "hermes" only devices. Just open the updater-script which can be found in META-INF/com/google/android path, open it as text via some root file manager and edit it removing the following lines:
Code:
getprop("ro.product.device") == "hermes" || abort("This package is for \"hermes\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\".");
Success.
Hey @Salman A. bro I have a little update on your question about that can we install a VibeUI on extsd-slot or in any other slot different than primary. Good news - it works like a charm, screen attached from last night when I was again playing with flashing roms on my phone lol.
Installed VibeUI_1604_ST on extsd-slot all working, I just edited the updater-script to prevent boring errors like that one above removing these line:
Code:
getprop("ro.product.model") == "Lenovo K50-t5" || abort("This package is for \"Lenovo K50-t5\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.model") + "\".");
So now running VibeUI from my extsd card lol, I flashed it just to confirm it's possible, but I think I'll wipe it and flash it again as primary because I mostly play games on VibeUI and I don't want to run a heavy game from my extsd while the entire phone system is also running from the card. It will slow down the things.
Meanwhile I still can't make the AICP rom by sandeep a multiboot ready. Sometimes it hangs at the logo, sometimes vibrates 5 times and reboots back to recovery. I posted at the dualboot thread and really hope that Chen will help me.

Wait! I forgot to mention that I also tried VibeUI_1606 from needrom and it while it had instaled fine it doesn't boot! Got stucked at the logo... I don't know for the other MM roms, you may want to try 1605 as I already tried 1606 and as you can see without success. So may be no multiboot for MM for now...if you have enouh space on internal you may try and report. So the bottom line:
VIBEUI_1604_ST Android 5.1 is working
VIBEUI_1606_DEV Android 6.0 won't boot.
Phone: Lenovo K3 Note
ROM: 04_K3_NOTE_5.1_1604_STABLE_ROW_004_CUOCO92
Kenrnel fix successful but in primary ROM While updating ram disk it gave error
log file attached
Please help
Using the latest Dualboot 2162 build with the VibeUI_3.1_1606 - can't update the ramdisk and also not indicating that the primary rom is the currently running.
I still can switch to other rom via the utilities zip so for now it's a compromise that I chose to make.

You have to change ro.build.product to aio_otfp without _m in your build.prop. If you are still trying that zip, you will still have to edit the updater-script. My advice, don't use it. That's very old. Try the new CM 12.1 Beta 3

TESTERS NEEDED
so i just finish porting/adding arabic, urdu and farsi language/locale to this rom. basic things like making calls, messaging, wifi, usb connection works but i need to know if theres any bug exist. so i need anyone who mainly use those three language to do further test, feel free to pm me and ill give the link to this new arabic ported build. no dont be scared, this will not bricked ur phone, it installed and boot just fine. im actually using this rite now. i just need to know if theres any other bugs because i dont understand those added language, such as translation error, menu out of order when using ported language or anything at all.
changelog v1.5:
1- added arabic, urdu and farsi locale/language.
2- added fonts to support those three language.
3- removed lg keyboard, added swype which support arabic, urdu and farsi locale/language.
4- rtl fixed, character shaping works on default browser (see screenshot).
5- removed touchwiz launcher and replace it with zeam launcher.
6- removed default mms.apk, replaced it with mms.apk taken from htc desire.
7- updated gmail to v2.3.5 without signature permissions.
8- added facebook 2.0 apk.
9- filesystem is still ext4 but this time unjournalled ext4.
10- because im completely decompile/compile all apks one by one to add those three language, basicly all those apks were compressed abit more so this time theres more internal storage free compared to earlier v1. on fresh install, after installing 3-4 apps from market i still had 18mb free in /system/apps now.
11- remove qualcom bootanimation, uses default samsung's now.
12- cwm 4.0.0.9 smaller image file by 1-2mb, taken from ketut's cfroot b-82.
13- true onepackage install. no need to update kernel via cwm after odin install like previous build, cfroot b-80 already integrated in odin one package install.
sceenshots v1.5:
end of updated post. below is from previous v1. i'll edit it when this v1.5 is ready for public.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
what u'll get with this:
1- based on ZCKPA china fw but on first boot uses english.
2- unique feature that only for ZCKPA which is triple network mode selection (dualmode, 2g only, 3g only) and advance call managing (reject call with message, auto reject, auto reject list, phone number locator, ip call, etc etc...)
3- deodex and pre rooted.
4- full ext4 filesystem.
5- cfroot B-80 kernel.
6- cwm 4.0.0.9.
7- lg keyboard.
8- hostfile modified to block ads.
9- gapps preinstalled.
10- darktremore a2sd should work by default.
11- added a2sdgui.
12- super smooth phone with help of fugutweaks patch v0.1.
13- huge apn list combined from XWKPN, DXKP9 and ZCKPA itself.
14- near to stock ZCKPA rom. just remove some chinese app to free some space.
14- maybe more.. too lazy to remember rite now.
step to install:
1- create backup with cwm and transfer that backup to a safe place eg ur pc. if something happen and u did'nt create cwm backup, i'll just sit quietly and laugh at u.
2- download S5830ZCKPA.NoName.v1.7z and extract it in ur pc.
3- download MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition, install it and use it to format ur sdcard as two primary partition, 1st partition as fat32 and the 2nd as ext4. take note that u should use a usb card reader to plug ur sdcard to ur pc when do partitoning job, its dangerous to partition ur sdcard directly while its still on ur phone and not adviseable to do so.
4- put CF-Root-S5830-v3.7-b80_boot.zip on root of ur sdcard.
5- reboot ur phone into cwm and do "wipe cache partition".
6- turn off ur phone, take out ur simcard and put ur freshly partitioned sdcard inside it.
7- boot ur phone into download mode and connect it to ur pc (please double check that sdcard IS in the device but simcard IS NOT in it).
8- run odin 4.42 and tick at one package.
9- for ops use Cooper_NoName.ops that u got from my extracted archive earlier. dont use other ops file, strictly just use what i gave u.
10- at one package option, navigate to S5830ZCKPA.NoName.v1.tar and choose it.
11- cross ur finger and flash ur device. ur device should automatically reboot if everything goes to plan.
12- first boot can take a little bit of time. when it finally boot, restart ur device into cwm and flash CF-Root-S5830-v3.7-b80_boot.zip(see step 4).
13- enjoy ur phone

Pretty hard to install I say! Can u make it more easy? Like just Open ODIN & flash via 1 package?
wow great, will try this one, thanks for your effort.
I think partitioning is not necessary for those who have already partitioned their card.
We can just flash this via odin as one file and if successfully booted flash cf-root then reboot and flash gapps for the market and other google apps.
Your instruction will harvest many questions.Make it easy.

Hmm i getting problem login into google acc. Seems like som kind of permission problem when installing gapps from zip flashable file. Think i should create another build. Next todo list:
1- remove some chinese app from system. Those app really takes huge space while i hardly believe anyone use it because its in chinese language.
2- maybe wait for next cfroot release that should bring smartass cpu governor. Btw im using kpn wifi module to make cfroot works with this rom. Dirty hacks here and there. So in theory, if the next cfroot still support kpn rom, it should also works with this rom.
3- gapss installed by default.
4- maybe rtl fix.
5- tun.ko, cifs.ko and other module preinstalled.
6- port seilent´s frozen winter theme. God how i love that theme

so here it goes, my 1st custom rom i've created out of curiosity. at first i just create this just for fun and learning, would'nt even expect it would boot, but hey, it boot and running just fine
i called this beta because i think there should be many more that can be done with it, but i'm too lazy to create another build. this one alone took me a whole night to create

10- near to stock ZCKPA rom. nothing were remove, just those stated above. means u'll get all those app that some of u consider bloatware, but maybe some find useful. so i just leave it be. if u feel its bloated, remove/freeze/uninstall those app via titanium backup or similar tool.

5- download gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip and place it on root of ur sdcard.
6- reboot ur phone into cwm and do "wipe cache partition".
7- turn off ur phone, take out ur simcard and put ur freshly partitioned sdcard inside it.
8- boot ur phone into download mode and connect it to ur pc (please double check that sdcard IS in the device but simcard IS NOT in it).
6- run odin 4.42 and tick at one package.
7- for ops use Cooper_NoName.ops that u got from my extracted archive earlier. dont use other ops file, strictly just use what i gave u.
8- at one package option, navigate to S5830ZCKPA.NoName.tar and choose it.
9- cross ur finger and flash ur device. ur device should automatically reboot if everything goes to plan.
10- first boot can take a little bit of time. when it finally boot, restart ur device into cwm and flash CF-Root-S5830-v3.7-b80_boot.zip(see step 4).
11- reboot ur phone. if it successfully boot, reboot once again into cwm and mount system partition, then flash gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip(see step 5) and reboot again for the last time.
12- enjoy ur phone

Any Screen to show us ? can type Chinese on this rom ?
First of all i would like to say a massive thanks to:
- Cj360 for the epic Jelly bean Rom
- Cosmicdan for his awesome kernel
- Lupus as well for his awesome kernel
- And everyone else who made this Rom possible, I thank all of you !!
So now with the intro, I'm new to the forum and i shall be testing different Rom's and kernels and giving feedback mainly on the Xperia play R800i and the Xperia x10 mini pro U20i, recently I've been trying a lot of different Rom's and i stumbled acrossed this JB slim Rom (For the Xperia play) and i was extremely impressed with its performance. The interface is simply stunning, blazing fast and built firmly compared to other ICS and JB Rom's.
Here are some of the specs i gathered from my phone's settings
- Operating system, 4.1.2 Android Jellybean
- Model Number, R800i
- Slim version, Slim-3.1.0-20130202-2346-UNOFFICIAL
- GSM ( Note GSM Version is for UK only)
- Kernel Version
2.6.32.9-Turbo_v3.1 [email protected], #66
- Rooted (Built within the kernel, Both Cosmicdans and Lupus)
[ I have attached some screen shots of this Rom ]
If you have an Xperia play i would highly suggest trying this out, as it is one of the best I've seen on xda:

Installation Guide [For people who do not know how to install anything]
DISCLAIMERS
Before you start anything, I'm not responsible for any: Bricked devices, dead SD cards, boot-loops, etc (You know the drill). You do this of your own free will
Ok with all the serious chat aside lets begin. Firstly you will need the following:
- Unlocked boot-loader -----> Follow this guide from Sony:
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
- Flash tool -------> Get that from here:
http://androxyde.github.com/
- The Slim-bean Rom -----> Download slim-bean in Second post, pick GSM or CDMA depending on where you are:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975851
Below are two links i found showing all countries that use GSM and CDMA, hope it helps ! (If your still confused do a little bit of research !)
GSM -----> http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html
CDMA -----> http://www.cdg.org/worldwide/index.asp - The kernel -----> Get either Lupus or CosmicDans turbo kernel (There both epic!)
Lupus kernel from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861970
Turbo Kernel from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1817548
- AND A VERY IMPORTANT THING YOU MUST HAVE IS ..... patience's
Ok if you have everything lets start the guide (Note: Make sure everything is done on windows 7, as its easier than older versions of windows)
1. Before we do anything make sure that you have a unlock boot-loader and you have a downloaded the following files:
- The Rom itself ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975851
- The Google apps -----> http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
- The Kernal -----> I did Turbo Kernal http://www.mediafire.com/?ncgvp2qcuns9m (NOTE: PICK ZEUS as that is the code name for Xperia play)
- Flash tool -----> http://androxyde.github.com/
- Fast boot Package -----> http://db.tt/B5vG1ynM
- R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_phoenixvendor.ftf ------> https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3UZttldr317Zm4xRnQ2WkRFbHM/edit?pli=1
2. Preparing your phone, make sure that you usb debug mode on and file transfer to MSC and allow unknown applications. Next you must connect your phone to your computer or laptop via usb, and open up flashtool and remember to install the drivers, they are located in C:\Flashtool\drivers and install the xperia play driver, fastboot driver and flash mode drivers. (MAKE A BACKUP OF ALL YOUR FILES IF YOU HAVE TO)
3. Go into flash-tool and select flash (Its a lightning sign) and then press flash and open up the directory where you downloaded the R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_phoenixvendor.ftf and flash it. Wait a few secs or minutes depending on your computer/ laptops speed, then a dialog will open telling you to shutdown your phone so shutdown and wait until its completely off. Now connect the end cable to your Xperia play and hold the back button and connect your USB into the computer and wait for it to flash. This can take some time and you must keep hold of the back button until its completed. After completion it will ask for you to unplug the USB and turn on your phone so do so, then it will launch up the Sony sign and it will pretty much look like the original firmware you had before. Now moving on, once booted up you must skip all settings and wait for the phone to fully load once the set up is done go back to setting and make sure again that USB debug mode is on, unknown sources is enabled and it is in MSC mode. (Note for CDMA R800x users you don not need to flash the R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_phoenixvendor.ftf )
4. Now connect the usb to the computer/laptop and place the Rom and Gapps onto your sdcard (Make a folder called Custom Rom). and then disconnect the usb after thats done.
5. Now this is were it can get complicated, so please pay attention. You must now shutdown the phone and disconnect it from the computer. Extract the fast boot package (Note: i would recommend to do this all on windows 7) and place it on desktop. Now drop the kernal you downloaded into the same folder (In this case i picked Turbo kernal, so i place it in the same folder). And holding the SHIFT KEY + RIGHT CLICK will open up a little menu (like when you right click anyway) and so you click on open command prompt here (CMD). ok now you type in the following code (In this case the turbo kernal) :
Fastboot flash boot boot_zeus_turbo-v3.1.img
Now it will say waiting for device so you now have to have you xperia play of and hold the search button and plug your usb back in then it will start transferring the kernel onto your xperia play, wait until it has finished and then disconnect your phone and boot it up.
6. You should see the sony sign and the Turbo sign underneath at this point you have to keep press the volume down button -
and then you will enter into a screen where it shows slot 1, 2, 3 and 4. So press slot 1 and then it should say: Boot, TWRP recovery, change slot and Tweaks and mods. So press recovery and then you will come to a screen with different options. First you need wipe data so goto wipe and do a factory reset and then go back and wipe dalvik cache and go back again and wipe cache.
7. Now you must go back and press install and it will show you, your sd card so now you must go to the folder that you name 'Custom rom', like i said before and now install the slim rom, it will ask you to swipe to install so do so and then restart your phone !!. (WARNING DO NOT INSTALL GAPPS STRAIGHT AFTER INSTALLATION OF ROM, INSTALL ROM AND THEN REBOOT AT LEAST ONCE BEFORE FLASHING GAPPS).
8. So now you have rebooted your phone, you should see after the sony sign, the world 'Slim bean' flashing. Wait a bit for it to boot up and then fill out the basic installation form.
9: restart the phone and install Gapps through recovery but do NOT WIPE DALVIK CACHE OR CLEAR CACHE OR FACTORY RESET, just install the gapp zip the same way you installed the rom in 'Custom Rom' folder and then restart.
10. you should have google apps now but the screen might look very small at first and so to fix this press: Menu button> System settings> Interface> Genral UI > LCD density and follow the steps. (This fixes issues with the screen and allows you to use apps like Facebook)
11. The final step of course is to enjoy your new Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Rom and Remember to thank everyone who made this Rom possible!!
So all in all i would highly recommend this, if you currently hold a Xperia play and your fed up with gingerbread then try this out, you won't be disappointed !!
Did i miss anything, if so reply back and i'll do my best to answer your question.

Re: [JB] Slimbean for Xperia play Review (Thanks to; cj360, cosmic dan and lupus)
This is a rather good guide. You might want to change the title. By saying "review" it could give the impression that you were just giving your opinions on the ROM. I used this guide to put slimbean on my Play and i found it easy to follow and understand. However, transferring my apps and data is such a pain:banghead:. I bought TB Pro as well but it tends to hang which leads to frustration as i have to go through the process of which apps i want restored and which ones i don't again and again. It's quite tedious and slow. Anyone know how to make it work "properly" or an alternative?

Thank you for the reply
I look forward to make more installation guides for people in the xda community and i agree i think i should change the title from 'Review' to 'Installation' (My bad sorry ). This is my first installation guide and i'm very happy that you were able to use it and install the slim Rom, as for the apps i think if you have a Google account anyway you should be able to backup your apps from your previous firmware e.g. Gingerbread. I think if you go to Play store then press menu and go to 'My apps' you should be able to see apps installed and previous apps installed if you swipe to the right (However you have to install them individually). I know how you feel though I've been trying different Roms and every time i find myself re-installing and backing up a lot of data, but for now i'm not sure if there is fix or an alternative for TB pro. But i would suggest backing them up manually for now via play store, until there is a way to do it all at once. But nevertheless I will try my best to give installation for all different roms (Hopefully for all phones), making it simpler and helpful for people to understand. Currently i'm studying in college but when i have time i will post different Rom installation guide, but for now thank you.

Good guide, noob friendly. I was just about to whine but I haven't found anything useless here although just edit the first post with flashing kernel via flash tool as it's much quicker and easier for everybody.
And it's called kernEl not kernal

Well don't get me wrong but all you actually have to change are just few lines in the thread and the title of the thread... Seriously, it's good that you've created such guide but come on, creating like 10-20 threads for different roms which doesn't actually differ much in the installation process? Come on, it's just bad...

I like Appextractor from AppsbyAndy. It lets you extract your apps from a nandroid backup. It's not perfect, sometimes apps are missing, but I like it WAY better than TIBU. The only thing I use TiBu for anymore is removing system apps I don't want.

I loved the performance of the rom. True jb feel with amazing customization tweets. Checked high end game FIFA12. Works great.
But the rom ultimately is useless for me until you come up with a gamepad and touch pad fix.
WE HAVE XPERIA PLAY. But without the gamepad working; gives such an ordinary feel. sorry.

Hi all, here I wish to continue porting OmniROM from the P4/P4wifi over to our device the P5/P5wifi.
*Please note that this is simply a port of an already built rom. It was not built from source therefore anything that you may find to be broken will more than likely remain broken until it is fixed in the parent ROM.
-Many thanks to the builder of this rom @AAccount. His hard work made this ROM possible. :good:
-Thanks to @jolinnard whose kernel is being used in these ROMs. :good:
*On first boot the keyboard will not be showing. The fix is simple. Go to settings>Language & Input. Tap on Current Keyboard and flip the toggle next to Hardware. The keyboard should now be fine.
Working:
Everything works on the P5 AFAIK
Not working:
SELinux---------Need a recovery that supports it.
To those looking forward to a P5 3G rom then please note that there will not be one any time soon. AAccount has stopped building for the p4 3g so that means we don't have a 3g rom to port anymore. So unless AAccount starts porting for the p4 again there won't be a P5 rom.
Flash Instructions
Wipe data, system, cache, dalvik if coming from another ROM. If ugrading to a newer build then a simple Dalvik and cache wipe will do
Flash the ROM zip
Flash GAPPs (Thanks to @jolinnard)
Flash SuperSU
Reboot and enjoy
Original ROM thread
Credits
@AAccount - for the ROM
@jolinnard - For the kernel
@decatf - for his work on the p4 kernel which is used here that delivers great performance
If you helped out and I missed you in the credits then send me a PM and you will be credited
This port has been discontinued!!

Hey! Maybe some day I will back to Omni. I'm planning to erase my Gtab of Google stuff and enjoy a clean Android experience.

If you want to port or start with omni source? Nice to See your work for our Tab 8.9.

Awesome!! Erased my internal sdcard by accident last week. Luckily I have the same files on my Nexus 9 so I was saved. This port works great for me. Should I even port for the P5? AAccount stopped building for the p4 as of May 23. Reason being that 3G doesn't work but oddly enough it does work on the P5 using our modified KK kernel and your data_on script.

Did you try with advanced wifi configuration? Try not use dhcp to assign wifi. Use a fixed ip. I had the same issue and that was the solution.

I have no such problems. My WiFi connects just fine. Try turning airplane mode on for a moment then turn it back off and try connecting again. Could it be the kernel? I'll p.m you a kernel to try and see if it fixes anything later on. Any logs?
OP has been updated with links to the new build released by AAccount today. According to him there were no major changes, just the usual Omni sync.
thanks for the unexpected gift! unfortunately i have problems with the zip package, it can't be opened/flashed, redownloaded 4-5 times from pc and tablet, same, checked the MD5 and it matches...am i the only one having troubles with it?

Edit: used the sideload option with ADB and used the omni-5.1.1-20150706-p5wifi-HOMEMADE ROM
Got also problems with the WiFi connection. My network uses 192.168.2.xx range

No you are not the only one. This was reported to me earlier today by another user. I'm in the process of uploading a new zip to androidfilehost and another to mega. They will be up soon.

I'm sorry to hear that. You can use adb to push a zip file to your sdcard for installation.
Use this command
Code:
adb push romname.zip sdcard
Or you could use sideload to install one as well. in twrp go to advanced then select adb sideload and connect your tab to your pc. Open up windows command prompt and type
Code:
adb sideload romname.zip
This should get a rom installed to your tab.
File has been re-uploaded. It opens fine now and should work fine.

tnx for the quick answer. I've been able to sideload your first rom but it has lot of fc when installing or updating the apps from the playstore. Setting cpu to 1.2 had no result.
I will try your new uploaded file tomorrow.

I have absolutely no problems with the ROM. No force closes or anything. Can you try a clean install of the 0716 build and see if it fixes anything?
Just before your re-upload I installed aosp-5.1.1-p5wifi-20150513. (Jollinnard). This ROM runs better than the UltraPlus I had before.
What are the advantages of your ROM over Jollinard's?

There aren't any huge differences but here are a few notable changes
1) Ability to change battery icon
2) Battery color changes based on charge level
3) Pre rooted
4) Performance settings app included
5) Omniswitch recent
And a few others nothing big. IMO I prefer the browser in the omnirom over the aosp browser and the omni keyboard over the Google keyboard in the aosp ROM. But that's personal preference. Try both and pick a side *twix ad*
how i can use this rom for the p5 ?
thanks

Edit the updater script and at the top where you see p5wifi simply delete the "WiFi" part so only p5 remains. Save the file put it back into the ROM zip and flash. Or you could simply flash the p5wifi recovery and you'll no longer have to worry about editing the script.
For future ROMs I think I'll remove the assert lines in the updater script so nobody else will have to worry about them.
For this fix to work you need zip of two different ROMs one with working adopted sd and other is the rom you want to flash ( the one showing corrupted sd card when you try to format it as internal eg- cm).
I recommend you to use orion as the first zip (the one with working adopted sd).
Now follow these steps:-
1- Flash the first zip in which adopted is working fine.
2-format your sd card as internal
3- using any root explorer copy misc folder from data and paste it in your sd card
4-now perform a clean flash of your desired ROM (dont wipe sd card)
5- before rebooting go to file manager of twrp copy misc folder that you copied in step 3 to the data folder.
6- reboot , you will notice you have a working adopted sd (no need to format it again).
Well its long method but it would surely work and you can switch roms without loosing adopted sd data with the same method.
Feel free to ask if you didn't get something.

It's the same thing mentioned in here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/enable-adopted-sdcard-cm-based-roms-t3322415
Either you dirty flash the 2nd rom or copy the misc folder. It's the same thing.
Isn't it's easier to dirty flash rather copying and pasting things?
And success rate with this method is 100 % for every rom

Maybe.
Since after flashing the first rom, the only thing we're supposed to setup is the google account and no other user apps. Since we are dirty flashing the second rom, there's no messing with data partition. So chances of having bootloop is very low.

I flash Stock KitKat ROM via twrp and it reads:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
This package is for "Kraft-A6000" devices; this is a "a6000".
The last successful flash was the official Mokee ROM.
Please help.
I was able to flash ED300's Cyanogenmod 12.1, but I cannot flash Stock ROM.
I tried flashing Mokee ROM and it showed error: 255.
Flashed stock ROM after updating cyanogenmod, booting into recovery through advanced reboot & flashing stock rom.
No errors this time. Case closed.
Thank you all.

Very sorry, I am on ED300's CyanogenMod 11 right now. Its very good.
I used stock ROM with MoStock kernel. RAM was 1.3~1.4 gb free.
Battery Life was excellent, especially after flashing MoStock.
Sorry can't post the screenshots.
But flash it and check for yourself.
Its out of my way to say this, but always have stock (kitkat) ROM and 2 twrp images (kitkat & lollipop) on your PC. It really helps. That way you can easily revert to start if any errors result.
Good Luck. :good:

No bugs as of yet.
I find it much better than stock ROM.
RAM management is really great - 1.5 gb free after booting.
A thing to note is that I replaced stock keyboard with Multiling keyboard; deleted the Ringtones, Notification, & alarm tones (except for the ones which I use) and also deleted a lot of inbuilt bloatware (see here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721531).
Replacing the keyboard is easy just rename the MultiLing keyboard (it uses 12~16 mb) to LatinIME.apk and paste and replace it inside system>apps.
Edit: You can view the xlsx extension online - search "zolo xlsx."
Also, if you don't use the second inbuilt theme, delete TWMaterial.apk
Back up the original CM11, just in case.
Good luck.

Go to system>>media>>audio.
Here you can delete the Tones you don't use.
However, (make sure you have backed up the ROM) you need to make minor changes in build.prop.
1. Download notepad++ & go to line - 277, 278 & 279.
2. Copy the name of the tones you want - right click>>rename>>right click>>copy.
3. Paste it in build.prop under respective sections.
4. You can delete all other tones now.
5. Also, make these changes (steps 2 & 3) in the update's build.prop.
You can also add your own tones (.ogg format) by deleting all tones and add yours to the respective section & doing steps 2 & 3.
On another note, after I switched to Multiling keyboard, whenever I click back after going into input & settings (it opens up Multiling keyboard settings), it says settings have stopped and restarts settings.
Not a major problem, but I thought I'd point that out.
Happy to help bro.
