It is a really cool App, installing the roms takes some time, but switching between them is quick and easy.

OMFGodddddd!!!!!!!! Yes!!!!! This is like legalizing drugs for flasher addicts!!
EDIT: bought it, and playing with it right now
edit: I like it alot, set the newer cm7 as my phone rom, and installed vicious miui in slot 1 just to play around with, its pretty fun, this makes me a flash a holic x5 or is that 4
Is this a must?
really cool app but this thread belongs in the themes & apps section
Playing around with this now, thx for the post. Never would have thought this would have been remotely possible ..therefore I never looked for anything like it via market lol.
cool app, but, how does it work?
is it automating the flashing process?
is it changing the boot.ini to make my phone look for the other os install on the sd card?
am I flashing like mad going in between roms?
I find these questions need to be answered first before I install this.
the way I understand it is
1.main rom i flashed on my phone internal memory+(kernel)
(on SD)
{
rom2+(kernel)
rom3+(kernel)
rom4+(kernel)
rom5+(kernel)
}
and the app works by flashing an update.zip that changes where the phone looks to boot.
Am I correct in my understanding?

Useful answers
1. Will this also work if you have a froyo rom and gb rom that you are switching between?
Yes u can install whatever roms u want to whatever slots gb roms froyo roms whatever makes u happy they're all completely separate it's like having 5 different phones basically
**** remember your radios folks we have mr1 and mr2 some roms need separate radios so if you use the app and swap, you wont have any data untill you flash a new one through hboot.
2. Are you saying that when you flash between roms, the app will auto wipe data, cache and dalvik?
The app creates imgs into the slots when u install a fresh rom to a slot u should check all the check boxes to wipe data cache and system but it doesn't wipe the data cache and system on ur phone just the slots data cache and system the app doesn't touch any of ur data on ur phone just makes it's own in the sdcard
3. Let's say I have Chevy's Froyo rom and his SS GB rom on there. If I flash from GB to froyo, then back to GB. Will I have to restore apps?
No each slot is saved all of it's data stays there nothing is ever wiped again just like having five phones basically all of ur slots are completely separate all of ur data is separate and saved nothing is lost
it aint workin right for me. I tried doing an install from the sdcard and it is telling me i dont have enough space. but i have 1.37 gb free!
This app is kick a**! I know one of the devs that made this app back from my D1 days (he was co-creator of one of the best D1 ROM's IMO) and he is an amazing dev! I was lucky enough to test this app and it is def worth the $$ if you're a person that can't decide on 1 ROM or you just like to try all the latest and greatest ROM's that drop.

So my question is...does it run the ROM from the SD card?
If so...how is the speed/lag once the ROM is booted up?
I like the idea of having different ROMs to test, but I'm wondering how much time you'd be saving if it takes that long to install a ROM initially.
A lot of these Devs have nightlys or almost nightlys....
Very interesting...
looks pretty retarded to me... right up there with rom manager. i cant wait to see how it effs things up for some beginner noobie
not all roms work,you may get FCs during setup... yeah looks pretty amazing.
think ill stick to manually wiping and restoring my nandroids after i get them set up.

That's what has kept me from purchasing it. It's been in the market for a few days now but if the rom runs off the sdcard it could cause issues.

On initial setup do you need to reinstall your current rom?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
Yes, it runs from the sdcard. Lag is minimal if you let the kernel settle when you boot one up. On my thunderbolt I don't really notice any lag and i don't even overclock.

Hello welcome to the first ever Synyster rom. This is going to be complete 100% dinc stock that i will create from a nandroid back up (im getting a refurbished one today) It will be posted tonight so if anyone wants to be alpha testers PM me or simply comment. Also, if you want to be a tester, i would rather you have a good understanding of rom development. This is so that if you run across a problem you could fix it for me since i know little about this. If you are able to fix something and do it succssfully i will update the post and give you credit for what you did.

nice name.
While I love your enthusiasm, Stock+ is a good stock ROM. There's also several other releases of the OTA on here. If you were to develop another stock ROM for this community, it really wouldn't be a very big contribution.
A community built ROM is kind of a cool idea though.
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
yea but theres times when im looking for a pure stock rom for it and i can never find it. I love stock plus its great but i have 2 primary reasons for this: giving people a pure stock rom, and giving people a pure stock rom to use as a base. also i plan to do this for several other devices thatll be the point of the synyster stock rom series is to give different phones absolute stock if needed.

Might I suggest using the latest OTA? A nandroid backup isn't necessarily the best base for a rom.
If you do end up going the way of a nandroid backup, only use the system and boot images. The data and cache partitions will be created on first boot.
I would also suggest making a /data/app folder in your rom zip for bloat/market apps, so the user can uninstall them easier.

If you want a stock ROM just use the OTA.
Let me google that for you.

If you are using the kitchen to build your ROMs you are better off using the rom.zip file found in the RUU or one of the other bases already posted on here. There are like 5 or them already. I personally would never use any ROM built off a nandroid even my own. That said I have made my own stock ROMs before using the kitchen and found its best to just use wildstangs gingerbread base which has been cleaned up removing all the Sprint stuff out of it. Saves the time of going in and editing the build.prop file yourself.
To extract the rom.zip file start the RUU and once at the first main screen click Start>Run and type %temp% now, find the newest folder and in there will be a ZIP file called Rom.
Wildstangs base:

Hey All,
Soooo this is my first Motorola Android device and I have to say I'm quite excited, but nervous. Just recently I was using Verizon's thunderbolt, and I've always used HTC. Well, after my 2nd thunderbolt, it crapped out on me again. So, I complained to Verizon and in return they sent me a Bionic. After reading reviews I hear nothing but great things.
Now my issue, I don't know what to do. Usually with my HTC devices, I root and flash roms, enough said. But with this Bionic I dont know where to begin. Some folks say install the ICS .232 build (which not sure how to do) and some folks say root and flash a ROM on. (Also, not sure what all this safestrap/bootstrap stuff is)
In all honesty, I really want a newer android OS. I think I was using gingerbread with my Tbolt, and I know ICS is out now, and Jellybean.
My main concern in what I want, and I hope someone can direct me to the correct place. I really want a fast, stable, build/ROM. I would like for everything to work as far as apps, gps, bluetooth, camera, etc.
I really appreciate all who respond, and I apologize greatly in advance if this is a repost. I tried researching before posting.
Again, huge thanks to all who respond.
Follow this guide to get on the an ICS leak. Personally I would strongly recommend not going beyond the .232 ICS leak for now.
Follow this thread to get rooted.
Here's a link to everything you need to know about the bionic. http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...tstrapall-download-links-in-op-updated-daily/.

Is .232 stable? Any known issues?

Yes you need to install the .232 leak in stock recovery. Then you need to root it and install safestrap, which is a recovery in which you can flash things. Once you have that installed, you need to boot into safestrap and make a backup of the nonsafe side. Safestrap works by partioning your system into a safe and nonsafe side. You are able to flash stuff on your safe side. So you need to toggle to your safe side and then you can flash a rom. I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32349741#post32349741 but thats just me haha, theres a ton of other info in the different sections here http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/forum/68-droid-bionic/
I'm just starting out with this whole rom thing. Currently I'm on Peach Sunrise(Gingerbread) and I want try out one of the best, but more importantly, one of the most latest Android version(which is Jelly Bean I think?) custom ROM's.
So which one exactly should I try out first.
I'll appreciate the help guys.
Go with SlimBean. It is one of the best jelly bean Roms in my opinion.

We all have our moments *takes a bow
But seriously what is the question? He/she is already on peach so obviuosly this person knows how to flash. We all know it takes very little effort an time going from one rom to the next. "So which one exactly should I try out first." says what gona flash again anyhow? All these roms have pro and cons an most people cutomize them anyhow.
Like so many other threads on xda all this thread really is (or at best could become) is a debate or argument about which rom is best. Which btw those threads eventually end up closed. An rightly so since it all comes down to personal prefernce. Lets see someone tell me what my personal preference should be.
As for helping i have no prob there. Have tried many times, even succeeded on a few occasions.
Its all good nomad, I'm not mad at ya'. Just remember we all had to start somewhere.
And yeah, I'm rooted and on a custom ROM but that's as far as I've gotten. So i'm not sure which of the 4.0x roms are good.
Anyways guys, one more question. I suppose I should backup before I flash slimbean, and I have clock work installed. Would that suffice in backing up my peach sunrise or are there another app you guys would suggest for doing a back up.
Thanks.
You can use clockwork mod to backup. It will do a complete back up of your entire system, so you'll be able to return it just the way you left it when you made the back up, so if you happen to run into some challenges and want to go back to the way you had things before, you can just restore that backup through clockwork.
If you have any downloaded apps that you want to bring over to your new rom, and you don't feel like downloading again or you want to keep the saved app data say for like a game you are playing, you can backup these up with titanium backup which you can find in the play store. Once on the new rom you can reinstall titanium backup and restore all of your app backups through there.
Ah! Thanks for that titanium backup info. When I went from stock to custom I lost the majority of my apps and contacts. So thanks for letting me that clockwork mod won't back stuff like that up for me.
Ok, I should be good to go now. I'll flash tonight when I got a bit more time.
You've been tremendous help and I really appreciate it.
Thanks.
No problem. mate. Here's an extra little tip. When you first flash slim bean, everything will look tiny because the default dpi is set to like 182 I think, and some apps in the play store won't be compatible due to this. so you have to go into settings under Interface > General UI > LCD Density and set it to 240 reboot and clear play store app data.
Thanks for tip about the dpi setting. Maybe this change should be rolled into the next build.
I haven't tried slimbean; I was going to recommend CM10. I thought Slim was not quite ready for prime time maybe.
I'll watch this thread to see if the new guy comments about his experience.

I'm thinking you realize this already, but just to clarify:
CWM will backup that stuff for you, but it would not be too useful when changing ROMs. 'Cause CWM backs up everything, including the OS, into one big glob. It's mostly useful when you hate the new ROM or something effs up and you simply want to roll back the phone, lock stock, and barrel.
I'd wager that most of us use both CWM (or TWRP) and Titanium. Titanium is a more finely-grained restoration tool.
As you gain experience you might want to check out TWRP. It's a bit more convenient than CWM. But really there's nothing wrong with CWM.
Yeah the new build has a res fix. And yeah I'm really liking slim. It is really stable, and I feel it may be even more stable then cm10. And it is definitely, noticeably smoother in performance. You should definitely give it a try.
Another vote for SlimBean. I used CM10 for a little bit. Since going SlimBean, there's no way I'd go back. Significantly smoother.
Slim Bean is really nice, thanks for the heads up!
I change my vote to Slim Bean.
Well I tried installing the zip from here and I get some kind of installation aborted error. I finally got around to trying this because I installed a shut down app and when the app shut my phone down, when I went to start it back up it would hang at the Exhibit screen. So I guess I have to be cautious on the apps I download that are for rooted apps.
Ah well, I'll go back to peach sunrise(hopefully, i'm redownloading it now, a restore from clockwork wouldn't even help). I'll play with Slim a bit later when I have more time.
Now I'm getting an installation error with peach sunrise. So I deleted off my phone, put it back on it, and when I go to install it the screen just flashes real quick and that's it. When I reboot the phone I get hung up on that Exhibit screen again.
What the heck did I do to my phone with that shut down app? I even forget the name of the app and I don't see it on my phone.
EDIT: Looks like I'm in a boot loop.
EDIT AGAIN. Well I'm finally on Slim Bean. I had to wipe my entire system to do anything with it. What can I do in the future to prevent this? Like I said even the backup that I set a few days ago wouldn't work. So this app must have really messed with something...
Sounds like you flashed an apk for some other device. In future only flash what us meant for this device. Playstore won't let you install non compatible and chances are if from playstore it isn't harmful as they are strict and quick to root out malicious software.

This, a thousandfold. If you can't do this yourself - meaning you choose to not learn how to do it yourself, more often than not, and expect people to hold your hand and just fulfill the GIMME GIMME GIMME nature - then why bother, stick with stock and be done with it.

I think, we don't have a stock rooted odexed or deodexed rom here, because the Nexus 7 isn't the real developer device. On nexus 4 and Galaxy Nexus there are those roms.
I hope to have those rom here in a while.

You can get the stock factory images directly from Google (search for "Factory Images for Nexus Devices" - xda won't let me post links), but they don't even have 4.2.1 anymore, just 4.2.2 . You *should* be able to install those directly.
I'm getting some odd "can't open /tmp/update.zip (bad)" messages on install though which I haven't gotten on prerooted roms.
Easy way to root the new stock 4.2.2 and install it full image.
To the OP there is a way to get the original full factory image for your nexus device. Here is the link.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
You can find the nakasi image 4.2.2 and download the tar image.
Then I would download and install the google nexus 7 toolkit here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1809195
Then install the sdk manager and update.
http://developer.android.com/tools/help/sdk-manager.html
Once all is installed then in the toolkit make sure you install the android usb drivers. I would then reboot your pc.
Then take the factory tar image and move it into a folder called "put factory image here" in the nexus 7 toolkit program files.
Then follow directions to flash it. You can then after it is flashed follow directions to root it.
Now you have a stock rooted version of 4.2.2. That is what I did and it worked for me. I am no expert by any means. I hope this helps.
I am not sure why I can't post links to help but if I have done something wrong please delete my links to the google factory image. If you google nexus 7 factory image you should find it.
R
These things take a little bit of time. 4.2.2 JUST rolled out, and the code was later dropped to AOSP. It will take a few days for the minds (who have other stuff to do, like jobs, families, etc.) to set everything up.
Also, Wugs root toolkit makes this process pretty idiot proof. I'm unsure if he has updated it to include 4.2.2, but you should definitely check it out.

It has nothing to do with the 7 not being "the real developer device." Nothing is further from the truth. ROMs available for the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 aren't here because the devs simply DONT HAVE A NEXUS 7. Why would a developer make a ROM for a device they don't own? It's the same reason there are ROMs for the Nexus 7 and not the others.
What I'm saying is you probably won't see those ROMs unless you take the time to port it yourself.
Developers on this site get really annoyed with those who have no idea how things work, and are also impatient for updates. This is a community, and we are given the opportunity to use free software these developers spend countless hours working on.
Learn to respect the developers and be as self reliant as you can. The tools are here at your disposal.
As the post above makes abundantly clear, 4.2.2 just rolled out yesterday and in roughly 24 hours Google posted the full factory images, and voila, now there's even a deodexed and and odexed and rooted too stock 4.2.2 ROM available - this stuff takes time, but it sure seems like some *cough*people*choke* are pretty damned impatient sometimes.

Wow!!
I don't want to start off by being annoying but I was really saddened to read this. I'm new to Android. I got the N7 for Christmas. My first Android device. Love it!
I only had it a couple of days before I had it rooted (much easier than iPod). I wish I would have known not to update to 4.2.2 straight from the tablet. I had no idea it was going to unroot it doing it that way.
Any suggestions on weather I should do a clean install, re-root then use CWM (I'm guessing it stands for ClockWorkMod) to do the update or just wait to root the 4.2.2 .
Obviously I'm going to have to reinstall all my stuff if I do a clean install.
Any advice on the best way to do this would be great. I guess it shouldn't be that hard to learn how to do the updating using CWM
Thanks in advance.

Any suggestions on weather I should do a clean install, re-root then use CWM (I'm guessing it stands for ClockWorkMod) to do the update or just wait to root the 4.2.2 .
Obviously I'm going to have to reinstall all my stuff if I do a clean install.
Any advice on the best way to do this would be great. I guess it shouldn't be that hard to learn how to do the updating using CWM
Thanks in advance.

well buddy if i was you i would wait till wugs updates his tool kit it will be much easier but if your impatient like the rest of us just go in to wugs tool kit thread and download his kit it has an option to root since im assuming that youre unlocked all you have to do is re root it
