Success! Multirom running unlocked and rooted KK and Lollipop

Success!
I hadn't installed Lollipop on my 2012 Nexus 7 (Grouper) because of all the problems I read about but I decided to try it through using Multiboot and keeping KK 4.4.4 too. I now have Lollipop running, including most of the apps I have running in KK, without any apparent problems. I initially installed Lollipop as the secondary ROM. After Lollipop is installed as the secondary ROM, it takes a while for the boot process to complete the first time, it seems to take forever. In order to unlock and root Lollipop I had to make it the primary ROM and used Nexus Root Toolkit running on Windows 8.1 to unlock and root Lollipop just as I had with KK. Now I can alternate from KK to Lollipop and vice-versa.
This is for Nexus 4 but works the same for Nexus 7 if the correct Lollipop version is used:

Hi
Did yolu installed also kernel for lollipop? Or are you using KitKat kernel? I tried to install as you described but lollipop always directs me to recovery.

asking same qeustions as hugo_bjk , before i updated to LOL' from 4.4.4 i tried to multirom various 5.0 roms but none worked all went to recovery as hugo_bjk says, im now 5.0 and performance for me is better then 4.4.4 anyways and now i do have kali nethunter installed via multirom ontop of paranoid saber remix:laugh:

I also installed 5.0 kernel but no go. Still directs me to recovery.

success
Âfter swapping internal and lollipop roms lollipop boots with success.

I've been away for a few days and just read the postings since I did the OP. I installed a Lollipop kernel with the kexec-hardboot patch and made Lollipop primary. Lollipop is working well, so far.

leanKernel question. Since I'm new, it wont let me post in the dev thread.

Hi all,
So I want to install leanKernel on my Nexus 6 so I can undervolt it, and I don't know which version to go with.
I have stock Android 5.1.1, and stock kernel.
Which version do I flash? lk_shamu_m-v3.0.zip or lk_shamu_lp-v2.14cm.zip, or lk_shamu_lp-v2.14.zip
I checked the FAQ and it doesn't have the info I am looking for. Moreover 3.0 isn't even mentioned.
I assume CM ys for CyanogenMod? But that still leaves me with 2 options.
Thanks guys!

Hello, you must flash lk_shamu_lp-v2.14.zip (lp stand for lolipop)
lk_shamu_lp-v2.14cm.zip (cm stand for cyanogen mod)
lk_shamu_m-v3.0.zip (the "m" stand for Marshmallow)

Android 6 is M (Marshmallow)
Android 5 is LP (Lollipop)
Android 4 is K (Kitkat)
Since you have 5.11, go with the LP version

Final question. Will it be safe to flash SlimRom over this kernel?

Flashing any rom will likely overwrite the kernel with the one provided in the rom. However you can just reflash your kernel after flashing Slim.

Fire OS 5.1.1 - What can(and can't) I do on this version?

After buying it I powered on it and it auto updated to Fire OS 5.1.1.
Looking through XDA it seems like there's no differenciation between 5.0.2 and 5.1.1 for making custom things.
My question is which of these:
-Changing the default launcher (to Nova for example)
-Rooting
-Installing custom ROM
methods are compatible with 5.1.1?
Sorry for the bad english, help is appreciated.

5.0.1 allows Fastboot boot which allows custom recoveries to boot
5.1.1 does not but you can flash roms using Flashfire instead after getting Root

5.0.2 You mean 5.0.1
There is no 5.0.2

Which version to install for Samsung Galaxy S4 on 5.0.1 rooted stock rom?

Hi,
The default build thread seems to save there is a boot loop problem with Samsung stock rom. Then there is a thread for 5.1.1 which some users say won't work for 5.0.1.
Which one should I install on Galaxy S4 with rooted 5.0.1 stock rom?
Thanks

Yes there's a thread for Samsung 5.1.1, but did you know that if you bothered to look, you would find that there's another thread that's called [UNOFFICIAL] Xposed for Samsung Lollipop by arter97. If the one for 5.1.1 doesn't work for 5.0 then maybe, just maybe try the other thread?

I was hoping there is someone knows what to do. Trying different installer means bootloop and re-flash for me.

You need to have a deodexed ROM for arter97's version to work. It says so right in the first post.
