[Q] Dual Booting Galaxy S? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have had a look around, and I have yet to find a way for an i9000 to have two ROMs installed.
Is there such a thing? I'd like to have CyanogenMod 10 (stable) installed as my primary ROM, and CM 10.1 (nightly) installed as a second partition, and a way to chose which to boot into.
Can someone point me in the right direction for this?

What's the purpose?
Cm 10.1 is much more better than 10. Trust me. Go for it.

I don't think it's possible for you to have both cm10 and cm10.1 dual booting but there is a dual boot kernel that allows two 4.2 ROMs by dertufuel search devil dual boot kernel

That was more of an example. 10.1 would be the first I got, and if I had more slots I'd add on other ROMs that weren't Cyanogen.
I'd mix and match the ROMs, I just needed a simple example of what I wanted so anyone could understand
I did actually install 10.1, a couple of things I liked, others I didn't. For now, I'm sticking with 10.0, but I'd like to dual boot some other non-Cyanogen ROMs to see what they're like

Even without both Cyanogens, if I can get CM10 as my phone ROM, and another of whatever kind as a second, that'll do me. As I said in my last quote, CM10 and 10.1 were just examples, I would eventually download other ROMs to try.
Thanks by the way, I'll look into your suggestion

Its not possible now to make dual boot with DerTeufel1980 DualBoot - Devil4.2 (04-Feb-2013) and its working on 4.2.1 roms, not 4.1.2.
Many thanks to him...:good:
The Q is: Can anybody recommend which rom is suitable to use with this kernel?

[ Guide / Script ] Auto-Porter

WINDOWS
Note: Tested on Windows 8
1) 7-Zip
2) Winmerge
3) Notepad++
4) Java SE Development Kit
5) Place on your Desktop in a folder.
This script comes with instructions for each step, It is the MIUI auto-porter modified for general use with CM10 based roms.
It will say a bunch of stuff about MIUI on the splash-screen at the start, Ignore it.
Any Rom that uses CM10 as a base can be ported to this device using this script.
Download: Auto-porter
I know It's not a new rom update but I figured you folks would like it better, to test it out go to AvatarRoms site or some other CM10 based rom and try your hand at porting!
Some roms will have TW framework or other things like this and that must be taken care of manually, so for more complex ports you will need a good understanding of how to port and diff and xml editing and so on; but for very basic things or to create a quick port to assess what kind of potential work would need to be done, how compatible your device is with a base; this is a good place to start.
Hello
We can port any rom based on CM10 with this ? Like Paranoid Rom ??

I have already tried this with CM10 epinter for base and Paranoid for AT&T One X because they are the same architecture and screen size ( 1280*720 )
But they don't start, i see the log but i don't understand anything ^^'
I retry and i give you feedback

Sometimes the foreign rom is just not compatible as a base, you will see results as you experiment and find which phones are most 'similar' to yours
If anyone has successfully ported a rom with auto-porter that boots and is somewhat functional or functional, then please post and share the details here. I personally do not know how to port a rom, or make a rom etc., But I am willing to learn how to use the auto-porter in this thread if someone is willing to point me in the right direction. Like which base to use, and what modifications need to be done and so on...
the tmobile s3 is based from the same chipset, should try there to see

Hi buddy you can try different custom roms for SSG3 mini one of them is Maclaw's CM10.1 you can check out the Dmod Rom too it's on version 6 by now, there are also pacman and AOKP custom roms as well as enox and benz rom, there are some other more roms but these are the most used by people around, (there isn't a paranoid rom until I know and unfortunately there isn't a MIUI rom either ) i'm personally using carmor rom that is based on Dmod rom v6 good luck trying out pal

Install a custom recovery, easiest way to install is by downloading goo.im (TWRP) or rom manager (CWM), just choose either one
then you can flash custom packages in recovery, and you might also want to flash the 3 button mod to enter recovery

already done installing a new custom rom i tried the [ROM][AROMA][DEODEX]DMod v6 its cool.. thanks all
CM10.1 and AOKP are very good but lacking the ability to record videos.. Dmod is my favourite stock based ROM but they're all worth trying.
My first custom ROM on this phone was benzrom, no problems there.
PAC ROM and paranoid android were a bit slow for my liking. Perhaps they're not as suited to this phones speed.
I'm currently using AOKP by maclaw studio and it is my favourite as its very smooth and light, and has good customization.

Slim Bean for me. I don't know how close to stock it is, but it seems very light on bloat. I did use Paranoid Android for a few weeks, but found stability going backwards the further it was developed. Maybe PA is good now, but I'm sticking with Slim.

The instructions are here - http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/installation. Make sure you read the page fully, including the warning in bold at the top, and that you understand everything before you start.
The instructions make sense to me, but I'm used to flashing. The instructions are not a full flashing tutorial and they only cover the key points specific to Slim Bean. Steps which would apply for all custom ROMs include....
1. You will need to install a custom recovery on your phone as the instructions cannot be followed using the standard Samsung recovery. This would be true for any custom ROM. There are various options for installing custom recovery. Telling you what to do is outside the scope of the ROM developer and the installation instructions for the ROM. Personally I install Philz kernel onto my stock ROMs in order to gain custom recovery features. Now that I have a custom recovery installed this is not a step I need to repeat every time I want to flash a new ROM. It's also why ROM installation instructions don't bother to mention this - it's assumed as a given.
2. It would be a wise precaution to create a Nandroid backup before flashing a new ROM. A custom recovery will let you do this. While recommended, it is not a requirement for a new ROM install so it may or may not get mentioned in the instructions.
3. You will need to download the new ROM and Gapps to the phone. I download to external storage (the micro SD card).
4. Worth repeating - wiping/flashing always carries the (small) risk of something going wrong, which could in the worst case destroy your phone. Less dramatic problems might be boot hangs or boot loops. I've only got into a boot loop once, and that was because I tried to short cut the instructions. Fortunately I dug myself out of that hole by flashing a stock Samsung ROM using PC Odin. The risk is yours if you want to go ahead.
That's the best I can do to help. If anyone else cares to chip in to cover anything I've missed then feel free.
If you want a pure aosp experience use the supernexus rom.
All the others mentioned here are CM based ones, not AoSP

You're right.
Always thought it was, but it seems it only has cherry picks from CM and AOKP.
Still, super nexus is built purely on AOSP code, and technically is 'closest to pure android'.

[Q] Front Camera problem

Hi, is there a patch zip file for the front camera? because every time i used other Rom, front camera doesnt work, Only the Rom stable to my P1000 and working camera is AOKP jb 4.1.2, thanks.

The (Front) Camera + Bluetooth problems are both well known post Android 4.1.2. (i.e. CM10.1 or CM10.2)
If you wish to continue using those Features you'll have to stick with Android 4.1.2. ROMs (CM10).
As you have already noted akop-sgt7 works well with our GT-P1000s, as does those from Paranoid Android, and Sapir.
I suppose the next question is will we ever get to see a working CM10.1/.2 mod for our GT-P1000s now that Android 4.4.x (CM11?), is now out?
Here's hoping that those Builds won't be plagued by those same Bugs!
just wondering
if you camera screen flashes/jumps when lighting/focus changes?
i am currently using 10.1 4.2.2, and it dose that on both back and front cam...
very annoying especially when filming

I could say no it doesn't, then again I could also say that I don't use CM10.1/(.2) Android 4.2.2 / 4.3.1 either because I prefer a 100% WORKING Environment over having the latest shiny shiny, either.... It seems to me like you've been 'round long enough to known that much of it to by now. If you like the (Front) Camera & Bluetooth that much, and who doesn't? Then you had best stick with CM10 based ROMs for now...

Same question applies... Does the (Front) Camera, and Bluetooth work?! If not why waste our time with it?
@Icarus1314; Very simple rule CM10 WORKS... CM10.1, and CM10.2 + CM11 currently do NOT work! Its still early days as far as CM11 goes, and People are working on it for the P1000, but it may still be some time before we actually see anything at all, if ever. As far as the (Front) Camera & Bluetooth is concerned.
After all this was a Bug that plagued this Device for nearly a Year now, and it still hasn't been fixed.
P.s. If your looking for "compatible" ROMs for your Device. I'd suggest you go to the Play Store (Formally the App Market), and download, and install the Goomanager app. Then search for compatible ROMs, and pick the last CM10 ROM http://goo.im/devs/cm/p1/nightly/cm-10-20130203-NIGHTLY-p1
You can also just download it to your Computer by going to http://goo.im and "Browse roms by device" (search) GT-P1000, or P1.
Sadly goo.im seems to be a bit wonky after their most recent update. So you might either have to fight though it, or find a different source.
Sadly Cyanogenmod do not seem to be hosting this File anymore though.

[Q][I9001] Dual Boot Kernel for CM 10.1

Hi all,
I hope this is the right section for my answer.
I want to install CM 10.1 ION on my S plus, as a secondary ROM. The last version is release 4, but the dual boot kernel is released at 2013-12-26.
Is it support the changeset made in ROM?
Thanks in advance

That is near impossible. Not because of the inability to make a dual-boot kernel, but the size of the /system partition. I'm guessing it's around 620 MB. Let's take a hypothetical situation that someone DOES make a dual-boot compatible Kernel, and you install two ROMs, Gapps will be a problem. You must be wondering "But then there's the tiny Gapps!". But in Tiny Gapps , There is a 99% (sorry for exaggeration) chance that it won't include all the libs for other google apps to work. I'm saying this by experience, If I'm wrong, you have full liberty to correct me.

Sorry but I don't understand.
Four month ago I installed CM 10.1 R1 with dual boot kernel and GApps without problems. (no space problem)
Now, the rom version is CM 10.1 R4, but kernel is not update, so I don't know if a old kernel could be support the new ROM version.
I don't think that the space is the problem, because I have already install CM10.1 R1 as secondary ROM (also with GApps)
I hope I described my question clearly
