[09-06]SailfishOS & Multirom. How to set up guide

Hi sailors out there
When I'm going to read through the available sailfish threads the question about how to set up multirom & sailfish have been asked many times. So I thought I'm writing this little guide. I describe the procedure along the nexus 4 mako. But it have to be very similar on other devices like nexus 5 for example. The important parts that differs from mako are the kernel and modem image you've to use. I will describe the easiest way in my opinion. Experienced users have more capabilities to reach the goal. I will not describe how to install twrp recovery and unlock bootloader. Both are prequesites. Please use xda search or google to get this. But this little guide want's to be simple as possible. So let's begin .
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beginning:
First we have to detect you're actual setup and where you want to go. Because nexus 4 is up to date I think the most common goal is to run android 4.4 as primary and sailfish os as secondary. Atm I have only paranoidandroid 4.4 on my device and will show you how to get everything working.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements / Download following parts:
kernel aosp: http://d-h.st/A99
kernel cm: http://d-h.st/CCn
aosp = android open source rom. Ask in you're rom thread what version you're on with the rom
cm = cyanogen mod rom. Ask in you're rom thread what version you're on with the rom
Modem for nexus4 in version 0.84: http://d-h.st/cIJ
or
through an app in play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bpear.makomodem&hl=de
sailfishOS ea4: http://releases.sailfishos.org/sfa-ea/sailfishos-mako-release-1.0.8.19-EA4.zip
cm 10.1.3: http://get.cm/get/aWH
Multirom manager in play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr&hl=de
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before we're going on check up the following
1. All zip's you've downloaded have to be transferred on the device
2. Apps from play store are installed
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation process
Reboot in twrp recovery
Flash the new kernel
Flash the modem 0.84 in twrp. Or via the modem flasher from playstore. It's you're decision.
Boot back into android
Proof the functionality in android withe the new modem and kernel. Wlan working? Bluetooth? NFC?
Open mutlirom manager. Follow the installation steps.
After some time you'll be back in android. You have now the right modem, kernel and and a twrp multirom version on you're device
After this. Please reboot back into twrp recovery
There select the advanced button.
Then the multirom button
Select add rom and mark up the entry sailfish os
Press next.
Now you can choose two zip files to flash
zip1: Select the cm10.1.3 zip file
zip2: Select the sailfish EA4 zip file
Installation process is beginning.
After this select reboot
You automatically went into multirom where you can cancel the automatic boot process for the primary rom. Then you can select which rom you want to start.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the most important thing is to read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/jolla-sailfish/general/qa-sailfish-n4-thread-devices-t2727330 for further question before you ask. I have described there many things to start with sailfish. If you find this useful think about to press the thanks button.

I'm a bit confused why do you insist on updating the modem? I checked my modem version and it is newer so I imagine there is no need to update. Also why use such an old version ov CM?
Just asking because I did all according to your instructions except I used newer CM build and didn't update my modem firmware as it was already newer. But for some reason Sailfish wont boot. It just hangs showing Google at start.

Also I stated in first post why I only described the way I've did

Ahh ok nevermind got it working once I used the older CM image. Wifi seems not to be working but I guess that is because I didn't downgrade my modem firmware. I guess I'll wait for a more stable builde or better yet buy a Jolla phone. Just like having the nexus 4 as I can test bunch of operating systems on it.

yes. that's a great benefit of this device Do you like sailfish?
With modem version 0.84 you have all parts working in sailfish and android

Ok thanks for the hint. I used to be one of the early adopters of Jolla, but couldn't use it as my daily phone so I sold it, but now that the OS has matured I think I maybe swithing back. Even though I still think Nokia N9 had far better UI experience. If only some would port N9 UI to Sailfish

I feel the same, don't know why, but i just loved the N9 and the way the OS worked. I am not saying that sailfish is bad or something, but there Are somethings missing ...

They've practically done nothing since pre-release to improve and refine the UI, and so many incredibly basic features are missing (voicemail notifications, global copy and paste etc). The pulley menus are ropey and the active covers feature hasn't really been made use of much. They seem to be mainly concentrating on the Jolla Launcher for Android, which will definitely make them higher profile ... but if all their software engineers and UX guys are working on that instead of Sailfish itself, then it seems like cutting off their nose to spite their face.
I'm not a fan of Android and I can't see myself ever using WP or iOS, but the lack of progress and their production priorities are a bit dispiriting. I'm hoping that they're holding a lot of big and waited for improvements for update 1.1 (October).
Anyway, I'll keep it as my main phone for a bit longer, despite the fact that I have a Z3C coming early next week. Hope to see a decent Sailfish port for it soon.

hope the same for the z1c, but don't how is the chance to see this port (soon or later).

Works nicely on my n4. Looking for getting gapps to run....

Don't think I'll regret getting the Z3C, from a hardware perspective ... held one the other day, as a friend had been gifted one by Sony. It's absolutely superb. Granted, I despise Android .. but for when the Jolla ****s itself / runs out of battery / when GPS or a camera is needed / roaming / skype /outdoor use, I can suffer it until there's a Sailfish port.
Hopefully as work is already under way for the One Plus One, the identical SoC used in the Z3 & Z3C won't be too much additional work.
For all the moaning and groaning about Mediatek, I'm guessing the simplest and best port of Sailfish will probably be for the Meizu MX4, as there'll be an Ubuntu ROM for it, and libhybris is used by Ubuntu Phone ...
Also, hopefully future iterations of the HADK will smooth out some of the problems porters are facing.

it's the same for me...
The SoC in your z3c and 1+1 is actually the same as in z1c, I guess – 8974 vs 8974ac – only higher clocked.
You should not suppose that mediatek SoCs will be easier in general just because of is one working device. Jolla runs a Snapdragon and it works perfectly, most of the devices sailfish is currently ported to run snapdragons – with very different results.

I wasn't saying Mediatek in general will be easier (though it's possible), but any device with an official Ubuntu ROM certainly will (should) be - Meizu MX4 (Mediatek) is the first of those.
P.S. The Z3C is fantastic ... though unfortunately in black as opposed to the red I ordered (it's being swapped tomorrow).

Thank you very much for these instructions. i have one question though. In order to download CM 10.1.3, it says to click that link which takes you to download CM installer app. Ive used that app before and as far as I kmow, it doesnt let you choose which version of CM you want to install, instead it just sets you up to install the newest CM 11. I downloaded 10.1.3 from their site. Either way, no big deal.
Also, which kernel do I download to install? Aosp or CM?
Thank you

Still up to date
Hi,
are these steps still up to date or should we follow a different set up guide to install the latest sailfish OS on the Nexus 4? Because most, if not all, the links on the first page end up 404...

Bluetooth sync from Jolla to Nexus 4
Flashed my Nexus 4 with the factory 4.2.2 from google with radio .48 and then flashed cm-10.1-20131003-SNAPSHOT-TREATFORCOOPER-mako-signed.zip because that seemed to be the 10.1.3 mentioned in the guides to end up flashing the latest sfos from this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/rom-sailfish-os-community-port-t2969823.
I didn't try calling, it has 3G network working and wifi is working but I can't seem to get the contacts from my Jolla phone using the Bluetooth sync from the settings.
Anybody has some advice on this?

Just had a good look at the wiki of devices on the mer website and found out the bluetooth is not yet working on the Nexus 4...

Works perfectly on my oneplus one

Android rom dump?

Hello,
Can anyone provide a dump of their Android rom or a link to a full OTA?
Would like to try to get it to dual boot on Windows version of the book.
Thanks!

if i'm not mistaken it would require root to make a full rom dump.
unfortunately we don't have root by now.

Remix OS
If someone could get Remix OS working with dual boot that would also be awesome Very keen for a dual boot solution and I think Remix OS would be a good fit for the Yoga Book. Although I'm not sure is the keyboard would work, would you need a driver for it?

Yep, that's what I tried already but the screen is rotated sideways (portrait) and the keyboard doesn't work... that's why I'd like to check the custom version by lenovo =)

hi...
does anyone have stock rom for YB1-X90L android Or how can i get it...
thanks in advance...:victory:

Anyone has been able to install Android on the Win Yoga Book? I love the functionality of Windows but sometimes it's a little laggy. I'd love to use Android for the daily stuff and use Windows for more complex tasks. I've seen that Lenovo posted he sourcecode of the Android OS for the YB. How can I install that on the Windows machine?

RemixOS anyone?

Hey guys,
has someone maybe tried to install RemixOS on the windows version of the Yoga Book? I would be interested if everything works well or if there are any drawbacks? I think if it's good enough for daily use we could get the best of two worlds - if you need it you could fire up windows and otherwise you just go with the (imho very exciting) RemixOS Android for x86 systems.

I tried to get Remix OS to boot from a memory stick but it got stuck on the Remix OS logo. I'm not sure if it is because it was connected via USB 2 and not USB 3.0, or if there is another issue. I also have a feeling if you could get Remix OS to boot the keyboard wouldn't work.

It boots but indeed keyboard doesn't work, so you cannot go further in the android initial setup. Also screen is rotated (sensor seems to not work) by default.
There's been an ota dump provided in a thread I started here if you also want to hack your way there.

What about now

Could we build a custom rom from the sourcecode provided by Lenovo?

Hi,
As the owner of a Nexus device, I am used to regular OS updates with included security patches. Since my Android Lenova Book has not updated yet, I started to look around
to see what could be find on the internets about that. I did not find much, but on the Lenove website I did find the Open Source Code for our Book.
http://support.lenovo.com/nl/nl/products/Tablets/Yoga-Series/YOGA-Book/ZA0V?tabName=Downloads&linkTrack=Mast:SubNav:Supportrivers%20and%20Software|Drivers%20and%20Software&beta=false
After downloading and unzipping it, to me it seems that these are the prop files you need to create a custom / updated rom. Since I am not that savvy on the subject, I only compiled a few roms, It would be nice if somebody could tell me if this is indeed the code that is needed to compile an updated rom and what steps should be taking to make this happen?
gr.
M

I, too, would love to see this happen.
I own the Windows version, but I've been flirting heavily with the idea of dual-booting. The major obstacle at the moment appears to be that Remix and the other x86 android builds don't recognize or support the halo keyboard. I'd love to have a ROM or something I could install to get the proper Android experience.

I'm down for this... providing my Book arrives soon (in AU so it'll take its time). If I find anything, or get enough free time to throw together a custom ROM I'll update. But I can't guarantee the latter (custom ROM from myself) as it will be a big learning experience.

Have you had a look at the current version of Android Lenovo provides? That certainly does support the Halo keyboard.

For Mediatek Devices it is pretty easy because if you manage to build a ROM for a device that has its software made by the same company who did the same software for another device (i hope this sentence is clear), then you can build a ROM for both devices with just some minor changes.

I'll just reply here for the last time, it is OT, but still useful for development
When there is no kernel source code, i use the prebuilt kernel image (included with the Stock ROM), while everything else gets compiled (excluding proprietary files required to handle the hardware).

i have tried that rom, it does not work for 4gb version, doogee logo stuck on the screen

i bought phone from banggood came with offical outdated software, so i will never get update.the only rom with update is 20170621. the rom that we have here 6gb version,hope someone will provide rom 20170621 for 4gb version.
many thanks

I'm also wondering about ROMs for the 4gb version of the phone? Have they updated that to the same level as the 6gb ROM? I thought the specs were identical apart from the extra 2gb of memory??

Can you do a rom for 4gb Version?

"Can you do" doesn't exist yet.
It is only the Stock ROM provided by DOOGEE directly, not something I made. You have to ask DOOGEE if you want other variants, then provide me the link.

Ah okay, i thought this was the pure stock Android Rom without Doogee "bloat".... Do you think there will be a lineage Version in future?

It does, I have flashed it on my own MIX.

How did you flash it with SP Flash Tools?
When i connect and try it says BROM ERROR: STATUS_BROM_CMD_SEND_DA_FAIL(0xC0060003)
What does it mean.
I installed drivers for MT67xx and latest SP Flash Tool
I have my phone turned off and when i connect (after clicking download in SP Flash Tool) it says the error.

Hi guys, i'm pretty novice about all of this and i dont speak english a lot, i have a problem with my new DOOGEE MIX (6gb i think), i tried to uninstall the "DOOGEE OS" many times but i failed all time. There is a cat/gameboy on my screen and i cant remove them, maybe i can find an issue here. Thank a lot in advance and have a good day !

home screen, press on the screen a few seconds,you will see launcher settings, then turn off search bar and know on home screen
