Multibooting on AHD - Motorola Atrix HD

Hey everyone im new to the AHD forums so bear with me for asking weird questions....
Is there some app similar to BMM as in boot menu manager that can help me multiboot ROM's on the AHD
i saw that the safe strap by hashcode was used earlier and it had that option....
But since the unlocked bootloader ever1's using CWM or TWRP so ne suggestions or ideas on how to make it possible ???
Searched everywhere but couldn't find nething related to multibooting on dis fone .....
THNX in advnce

Ya did u read my question duh??
Is there something equivalent of bootmenumanager for the AHD instead of making stupid answers can you respond to the question i am asking
can we make a virtual partition in the main ROM so that we can boot into another ROM when we enter into recovery
@Jce9182 if you can't answer/understand what I'm saying then it would help everyone if you don't make stupid posts that have no substance or information.

Your clearly the one making stupid posts. And I already answered your question. Unless you develop it, it is not around currently. Don't you think there would be a topic about it?

Thnx 4 the reply bro everyone above are being such jerks all i asked was a plain simple question these guys instead on answering it
keep fin arnd bout sm sh it or the other.....
BTW is it possible to set a virtual partition in the cwm root and dual boot via recovery and can safestrap support these other new ROM's lyk PAC....
IF your interested i don't mind trying to port BMM equivalent to the AHD coz m used to it in my A2
i'm not fully aware of all the intricacies of AHD so could you help me out a bit .....:laugh:

I answered your question 3 times saying you couldn't.. I don't understand why you don't get it. And skeevy was being a smart ass hence the gaps lol.

If you want to dual boot you need Safestrap 3 and both ROMs must use the same kernel, such as Batakang and stock. You cannot dual boot with CWM.
99% of ROMs that can be dual booted are now dead for the most part. None of the new ROMs like Carbon, PAC, Probam, CM, and whatever other complete ROMs we have can be dual booted, which is what skeevy was saying.

can i dual boot?

can i dual boot 2 roms?
Yes and no. The closest thing to it is through an app called bootmanager that installs roms on your SD card which doesn't take long to switch between roms. But you can't truly dual boot off the phones internal storage.

Our device is not supported.
It won't help with trying to get the KU900 V30 to work on our P970 as it doesn't boot. I am not sure how they do this from what I can tell they boot much later by mounting their file image then booting from that. The problem we are facing happens before that, but it does look interesting.
EDIT: Those sizes you are looking for can very easily be found using any terminal emulator or adb shell.

To what extent does can it "emulate" the alternate ROM booting. Can we alter bootargs that are passed to kernel by u-boot. Their website actually tells me very little about how it is actually done.

Just the kernel won't help. We need to alter stuff before the kernel gets initialized and if we make a mistake then we might lose the ability to go into SW Update mode and we can't risk that.
We can easily re-flash kernels as is so that's not the problem.

I believe that was done by Dexter, although I can't be certain as you didn't bother to post a link to the video. If I am right then it's a beta version which is run with the stock kernel - if you search on these forums you will probable find a reference to it, but I think he has stopped developing for our device due to the locked bootloader and (I think) he has got rid of his 4X as well.

you are correct
I do not have o4x in my possesion anymore, sorry. I have limited support options now and not very interesting. the modem driver was not easy to get around, so the sense4.1 release was never public, since it would be 900MB download for nothing, but a startup and running the senseUI, but no modem/data and wifi making it worthless.

I'm not sure there are actually ANY developers on XDA for our device. Also, the last thing I would ever want from a custom ROM is Sense - that is one of the main reasons why I moved away from HTC - it may look pretty, but it is a serious resource hog. The only custom ROM I would ever really be interested in is something vanilla - CM, AOSP, AOKP, whatever.
I would like to learn how to develop roms for my device
Can someone help me

Start off by searching - both XDA and Google. Find out how a ROM is put together, what part the kernel, and the main O/S do - find out how to sort out the drivers, get someone else's ROM for a different device and see how it is put together. There is so much out there already, you simply need to search and if you are good enough to produce a ROM then you will succeed.

Do you mean you flashed [ROM][SENSE][10-01-2013] UnoX SENSE4 for Optimus 4X HD - FIRST CUSTOM ROM!
If so then that's a fairly silly thing to do - it is an Alpha release, from a developer who no longer has the phone, and it's based on ICS, not JB.

It can be dangerous flashing firmware meant for another phone even if the specs are similar or even identical. Each firmware is made specifically for each phone. There are a number of things that can go wrong by flashing firmware that was not made for your phone causing you to hard brick it. You need to consider partition sizes, the bootloader, and the boot image just to name a few. Replacing the boot image with one from the AHD won't guarantee the phone will boot and if it does end up booting the phone will most likely not work properly.

No no I'm not that stupid lol I'm gonna deodex this then post a link for others and I plan to build a moto x ROM but base it off Mexican retail and try to implement as many moto x features as possible
really ? you care about my signature
Don't think there's much good in this.
The main moto x features revolve around the architecture of the x8 (such as the google now feature) and the amoled display (such as the active notifications)
It has a customized snapdragon processor but the problem is that the Moto X has two additional cores for handling all of the "always running" sensors, such as the mic and gyroscope. If we did port it, our battery life would be KILLED due to these long running sensors and the lack of a low power third and fourth core.

Before flashing any custom ROMs, you need to root your phone, unlock the bootloader, and flash a custom recovery. After doing this, you can flash moto msm8960 ROMs for jbbl.

Stop being afraid and use the basics of ROM flashing. Just try it out, but make a backup of your current ROM before flashing that ROM.
Edit
did you read the last post in that ROM's thread? Someone posted about 7 hrs ago that it was NOT compatible with our JBBL, and that it requires the KKBL. you posted your last post on this thread about 6 hrs after this was reported. Why are we asking about this when we know that it will not work? Contact Motorola and request that they release the KKBL to us.
