Rom Switcher
This is a Mod which allows you to switching between Timescape and any AOSP based rom.
It's only for advanced users and I am not responsible if your device get bricked or transform into a monster and eat up your cat.
Before you install this, please read the whole post!
Your first rom is Stock Timescape and second rom is any AOSP rom.
The second rom is installed on the /cache partition.
/data and /cache folders for second ROM is in /data/dual/
This Mod switches between two kernels.
For Timescape you have to use my CWM kernel for Sony Rom, for AOSP you have to use my modified CM kernel which will be automatically downloaded by the app.
What is this project about?
Its about a dual boot implementation that is somewhat universal and supports a lot of device. We are the Rom Switchers.
Default kernel for Timescape is Stock Sony Kernel with CWM,
if you want to use another kernel, replace fiirst.img in /sdcard/romwitcher/ with your favorite kernel(must support the rom you are installing).
Sources:
Kernel Source
Dual Boot ramdisk
Currently only supports pollux_windy (might port to pollux if there is enough support)
How to install?
You can use any AOSP rom for second rom!
Needs Unlocked bootloader
First Install stock ROM .ftf
Install CWM kernel and root from HERE
Install BusyBox from HERE
Lazy Version
Open Your AOSP rom zip and copy this zip over it- LINK
Open Your Gapps zip and copy this zip over it- LINK
Long Version
Download any AOSP rom. Extract it and open META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
replace this line
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
with this wherever u see it
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache", "/system");
then delete these lines
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
and
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");
and
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "SGP311" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SGP311" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "SGP312" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "SGP312" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "pollux_windy" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "pollux_windy");
You will need Gapps
Get it here http://goo.im/gapps/
Extract it and open updater-script
and replace
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
with
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache", "/system");
Zip your rom and gapps.
Flash both in recovery. (first rom then gapps)
DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
Reboot your phone and if you did all correct. You should boot into your Timescape Stock rom.
Now download and install the app
Download app here
Open ROMSwitcher and follow the instructions. It will fetch required files automatically
NOTE: Currently First Rom needs to be Sony and Second rom any aosp rom, you can manually replace the first.img with a stock cm kernel to dual boot 2 aosp roms (the folder is /sdcard/romswitcher/, this method should work but i have not tested it due to lack of time)
That's all have fun

Thanks. Been waiting a long time for something like this. Downloading now. Thanks again

I have followed all the steps here indicated, like this:
Starting with a fresh flash of a Sony stock 4.2.2 firmware.
Flashing modified kernel and rooting.
Modifying PAC nightly (09.05) updater-script.
Modifying GApps updater-script.
Flashed them both, first ROM, then GApps.
Successfully booted stock.
Installed ROMSwitcher.
Opened it and it downloaded a download.zip.
After finishing downloading, re-opened ROMSwitcher.
It receives root permissions but then it's just a black screen, all I see is top and bottom bars.
I guess that when I open ROMSwitcher, it should show me a menu with both roms, right? What could I've done wrong? Should I flash that download.zip or something?
I'd appreciate any help Thanks in advance.

Can you posted here corectly
Second.img???
Us i understend
first.img - its stock core.
second.img - must be moded core for pollux_windy roms.
But in folder we have same img. file

^
Yes it have the same size.. But If it's the same kernel I think when we switch to the AOSP rom we should get a bootloop !?
Or maybe that's how it works .. with the same modded kernels
...
I've deleted the RomSwitcher folder containing the two kernels and download.zip and give it another try.
Got the same result .. restarting to the stock rom. =/

thats because the default cm image u used is not configured to boot second rom and its trying to boot sony files
what i think went wrong with your installs is busybox because busybox is supposed to change kernel from first.img to second.img
did u use smart install on that app?
i am uploading the same first.img and second.img to my host so u guys can try that too but i think the issue here is busybox if u already have working root and cwm

I don't think it's busybox related.. I'm sure it's installed correctly.
When I tried to install busybox to another folder.. The device didn't reboot at all.
So I think rebooting the device means that busybox is working.
And you didn't tell us.. does the two. img files have the exact same size?

Will there be a CWM version uploaded later? I will sure try this out, but its much easier to ad and delete apk`s from a zip file ,also changing .png and so on. please consider.
By the way, THANK YOU ffor this new version i have about 60Mb to download then its flash time.

As it seems the file is somehow corrupted I at least hope the system.img can be pulled from it, then it's no biggie to make a CWM-flashable version. We'll see in about 50mb..

Mithun's Rom Switcher
This is a Mod which allows you to switching between Timescape and any AOSP based rom.
It's only for advanced users and I am not responsible if your XZ get bricked or transform into a monster and eat up your cat
It is still in alpha state, but is working for daily use
Before you install this, please read the whole post!
Your first rom is Stock Timescape and second rom is any AOSP rom.
The second rom is installed on the /cache partition.
/data and /cache folders for second ROM is in /data/dual/
This Mod switches between two kernels.
For Timescape you can use any kernel, for AOSP you have to use my modified CM kernel.
Why I created this Mod?
fusion3 devices haven't got a multiboot option like this
Default kernel for Timescape is DooMKernel,
if you want to use another kernel, replace fiirst.img in /sdcard/romwitcher/ with your favorite kernel.
Sources:
https://github.com/RomSwitchers
OUR APP IS CLOSED SOURCE
How to install?
You can use any AOSP rom!
First Install stock ROM .ftf and root it
Then Flash DooMKernel
Download any AOSP rom. Extract it and open META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script
replace this line
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
with this wherever u see it
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache", "/system");
then delete these lines
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
and
Code:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot");
You will need Gapps
Get it here http://goo.im/gapps/
Extract it and open updater-script
and replace
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
with
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache", "/system");
Zip your rom and gapps.
Flash both in recovery. (first rom then gapps)
DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING
Reboot your phone and if you did all correct. You should boot into your Timescape Stock rom.
Now download and install my app
Download my app here
Open ROMSwitcher and follow the instructions. It will fetch required files automatically
NOTE: Currently Recovery works on Stock ROM only
That's all have fun
​
Wipe data/cache on AOSP rom
Wipe data:
Delete /data/dual/2nddata
Wipe cache:
Delete /data/dual/cache
Install new AOSP rom
Wipe cache in recovery and delete /data/dual
then flash your new rom
Remove AOSP rom
Wipe cache in recovery and delete /data/dual

Few questions about ur CM kernel:
Undervolting possible ?
Governors available?
Min and max clock speeds?
And is there no way to use a different kernel for AOSP ?

@mithun46 Everytime I switched back to stock timescape, I realised that it's necessary to flash doom kernel again for the wifi fix. I often switching between them and I find this fun. But it's annoying to flash doom kernel for every time I switch back to stock. Any workaround for this?

Strange, this doesn't happen with me. Are you running pure stock or a custom stock rom?

from omnirom KK sure u can but if u wanna come back KK u gonne need a pc, cuz cm lollipop recovery is broken for all devices, u need to fastboot a KK boot.img in order to get back working recovery
But how exactly to flash ?
1. Place the ROM on your SD-Card.
2. Extract boot.img included in zip and fastboot flash it via Flashtool or CMD
3. Reboot to recovery.
4. Wipe data-factory reset/cache partition/dalvik cache
5. Flash the ROM.
Did i need 2.) ??
or can i directly go to TWRP an flash your .zip ?

I think it's a good idea to wipe system too. I initially used the boot.img (I actually used the CM11 one) as I'd screwed up my recovery by installing the latest TWRP 2.8.4.0 on the fota partition, I think that version is faulty. But I tried installing TWRP 2.8.1.0 on fota once up and running and screwed it up again! (black screen when trying to boot to recovery). So I flashed a stock ftf, booted and flashed an omnirom boot.img with fastboot, booted into it (2.8.1.0) and flashed this rom no problem. So I guess if you already have TWRP, you'll be ok!
*edit* Oh no! My recovery got overwritten with Cyanogenmod recovery. (No options to install zips) Hoping I can get TWRP back...
Tapatalked that shiznit.
well ...i have to modify steps, because as included recovery into lollipops kernel, i was wishing cyanogen fix their sh*t, but it semms they are not gonna fix it soon, is broken, u can't flash anything from it, or else from sideload.
better way is:
From a fastboot flashed cm11 (yeah KK) boot.img (or if u already are on a cm11/or based rom with working recovery)
u boot into recovery
make a nandbackup
wipe data factory reset+wipe cache partition+wipe dalvik cache
flash rom+gapps
reboot
let settle
reboot once again...
Huge thanks to @scoobyjenkins for testing and spending whole afternoon to try flashing and freak out lolz
Lollipop links wrong way round
BEWARE !!!! The links in the OP for the Lollipop ROMs are the wrong way round
The pollux one goes to pollux_windy, and the pollux_windy one goes to Pollux
I nearly flashed the pollux to my wifi-only 311 UPDATE : Links sorted :good:
UPDATE : Flashed, booted (took a few minutes for first boot - be patient!), No GPS. Not had time to try anything else.

Well I think I'm getting somewhere... After having my recovery overwritten, I flashed stock ftf again, booted, flashed omnirom boot.img (TWRP 2.8.1.0) and flashed Pacman Rom 4.4. Then I booted to recovery and it was once again overwritten by cwm. So I booted to system, used the fota install method for TWRP 2.6.0.0 and hey presto! It was successful. So I'm guessing later versions won't stick if flashed for the first time. I was on TWRP since 2.6.0.0 and have updated using fota method ever since. So now I've installed this rom again and will see if I can get TWRP 2.6.0.0 to stick, then maybe update...

Nope nothing. I flashed back to stock with ODIN and was able to get it to boot. went through the initial setup and logged into the home screen. Rebooting into Download mode.

Do u know how to build a kernel? This tab3 has only Cm10 and Cm11 kernel (boot.img) cm10 kernel don't have flickering issue, but cm11 has. I use cm11 kernel when I need Wi-Fi and to play game that need sensor like temple run.but for movies I flash cm10 kernel.
If u build a kernel for this device than it will be very nice.
I saw a kernel source in github.

I only know the basics. I'll see what sources they have on GitHub, fork it, Download source(slow cuz I only have 3mb connection), borrow some commits(from s4 mini?), setup the defconfig, and compile on old machine(Celeron dual core 1.7ghz with 4gb of ram). That could take a while... and I'm not familiar with decompiling an already built kernel for different roms. It sounds like u have cm12 working with wifi? Could you upload it or any rom for us while I try to work on finding source? I know @negamann303 has 3 kernels built, a rom, and 3 different recoveries on android file host.

AICP
Android Ice Cold Project
AICP is known by everyone as Ice Cold Project that started on Desire HD and since then evolved into a mature ROM with the BEST community you can find!!!
Until Lollipop, Rom has always been AOKP based. Unfortunately, since AOKP either stopped development or will make a comeback later this year, we changed our base to CM when it comes to hardware, drivers and some features.
If there are any bugs, either AICP will sort them or CM team if it concerns their modifications. This rom isn't CM supported so no need to report errors or bugs to them!!
CREDITS:-
In the beginning we would like to thank:
CM team and esp to the great @arco68.
@F4k for giving permission to use their source.

GREAT !
i have solution to the sensor bug. (github)
why u didn't include the build.prop in the rom ?
EDIT: for the sound: u need to use stock or cm11 snd_soc_msm_2x file.
in the newKernel.zip file /system/ folder is useless, i added that folder for because i have used cm11 etc and hw folder in cm12.1 thats y to overwrite them... as i built cm12.1 kernel so no need of cm11 files.

@DarkFrenzy thanks for the edit feedback. I will add that soon...... For some reason I when I tried to add the build.prop to the ROM, the rotation was off. Even after setting the right permissions and setting "ro.sf.hwrotation=270". The changes wouldnt stick so I came up with flashable zip. As far as the newKernel.zip /system folder, I was wondering about that, thx for clearing that up. Will remove those folders and update to the new sensor config.

@haroon aejaz , thank you for the article but in the edited article, the download link takes the reader to the wrong DEV and ROM. Also, make sure to list Developers name in the article for proper credit.

system folder inside the rom zip file is not commaned to extract. you do that by adding " package_extract_dir("system", "/system"); " before the last unmount of system.
ex:
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system", "");
package_extract_dir("supersu", "/tmp/install/bin/supersu");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "unzip", "/tmp/install/bin/supersu/supersu.zip", "META-INF/com/google/android/*", "-d", "/tmp/install/bin/supersu");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "sh", "/tmp/install/bin/supersu/META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary", "dummy", "1", "/tmp/install/bin/supersu/supersu.zip");
[COLOR="Red"][B](ADD HERE)[/B][/COLOR] [B][COLOR="Lime"]package_extract_dir("system", "/system");[/COLOR][/B]
unmount("/system");
or u can do all modification you want to the system in your tab (like remove useless apps and add needed libs or files or add apps) then you can dump the system and convert the system.img to system-new.dat and update the zip with new system-new.dat
Any chances building it for T110, please? Device name is goyawifi, and here are the sources.

The hardware architecture is different so someone who has that device should build from source.
~~SORRY~~

Do you know if this rom is compatible with the sm-t217t version of this tablet

Not 100% but from what others have told me, it is compatible with sm-t217t. Make backup just in case. Im using recovery from sm-t217t on sm-t217s.
Heres updated link to 6.0 roms

So I've been running the cm13 ROM from the sm-t217s on the sm-t217t version of this tablet and everything has been good. So yes I can confirm they are compatible. I also tried the AICP rom and it also worked. When I get some time I'll try the new blisspop one to see if its compatible also and let you know how it goes if you want.
*UPDATED: Build.prop and Kernel is now included in ROM.
-Download ROM (and GAPPS if needed)
-Boot into Recovery
-Make Backup
-Wipe/Factory Reset
-Flash Rom
-Flash GAPPS (if needed)
-Reboot
-Install Performance Control .apk (for Kernel Features)
-Enjoy!
