Just wondering if I could use 4EXT on my Nexus 7 or if I have to use CMW???
Thanks in advance!
As far as I know the dev has not added support for the Nexus 7 yet. So no support =do not flash it.
I use 4Ext on my G2 and I love it, so hopefully it will get support. Send the developer an email and ask. Right now CWM seems to be the only option.
TWRP is also supported

Has anyone checked this recovery console project out? it's a GUI / TouchScreen based Android Recovery. IMO for a tablet it makes more sense.
Release Site : http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp

I'v come across this before, it would be a great recovery to have on the XOOM, I can't believe nobody has made an effort to port it.
We now have 4ext touch recivery for our sensations its so good!

After helping raidzero try and port his recovery to my xoom I can see the issues with twrp
Ill be happy with Twrp 2 once its ported but I know it will be awhile

Hey all,
I currently use TWRP 2.0 and I was wondering what are the pros and cons of each? I've heard that CWM is less buggy... anyway, is it much different than twrp in terms of interface? I'm used to using twrp and dont really want to switch unless there are distinct benefits.
Thanks

One man's opinions on the pros/cons of each...
TWRP
- A more friendly user interface... big buttons and swipe enabled
- Option to compress backups can save space
- Reboot options are broken as it does not set the bootmodes properly before restarting the device
CWMR
- Interface is less developed and the menu options are not so well organized
- Additional formatting options for some partitions
- Reboot options work as expected
- Backs up to .img files, which can be useful if you want to fastboot flash some of them without using recovery
As a side note, installations of some zips are problematic in the new version of TWRP 2.1.0 and I was not able to flash a handful of ROMs I tested.
Overall, I think the two are pretty much are on par with each other in terms of features and work well. You should settle on one or the other though... back ups on one won't restore on the other.
Thanks for the replies, i think i'll stick with TWRP for now

I just thought I would make this thread so that we can see which recovery is most popular

I have not been able to find any threads for the Nexus 10, but I was wondering if it were possible to dual boot the Nexus10?
My goal is to try and install both Android and Ubuntu Touch preview on my nexus 10 tablet so I could try out Ubuntu touch without losing all of my android functionality.
Are there any resources on how to do this and has anyone ever attempted to do dual booting on the Nexus 10.

I found MultiROM for the nexus 7, which seems to work exact how I wanted, even supporting booting from otg cable. However, there was no release for Nexus 10, or planned, and there was one thread asking about its existence on the Nexus 10 but was locked by a moderator for being in the wrong sub forum.

What's the thread for it? Maybe we can get some developers to port it to Nexus 10 .
Pretty sure kernel/recovery is a big part of duel booting and not a Rom

Yes it mostly has to do with kernel and recovery but rom must also be edited to work on dual boot. On my xperia play I can boot up to 4 ROMs using turbo kernel. The kernel creates slots on the SD card where the other ROMs are installed. I don't know a lot about how its done. But its very useful to have especially when you have a low ram phone so you could boot different android versions. Now if someone could get that done for nexus 10 it'd be awesome. Cosmicdan is the developer who did it for xplay

I've been learning and figuring out how to port MIUI, and I have a general understanding of it, would anyone be interested in a port for Nexus 4? I do not have a Nexus 4 on the ready though, so it'd have to have others testing it.

Is it the global version of MIUI 8? Must be based on cm13. Right? I will be glad to be a tester.
Me...
Would be great to have a Miui8 for N4! I will be glad to be a tester.
im so interested
Miui 8? of course
Somebody tell me the procedure... I can port it...
I was reading the porting guide myself the other day... but it seems to be quite a bit of work!
Count me in. Currently running the last version.
Bleh........

What's the status?
I'm interested
Past monday I've made one version based on AOSP 6.0.1 from xda
I can't test it yet, because I've only one nexus 4 and it's used on my work.
I've tried to flash but, I can't, get stuck on the begining of updater script. I think it was because I'm on TWRP and I need to change to Clock Work Recovery.
I have no time to flash it beacuse I need to travel out from home this week. All rejects should be repaired.
If some want to test, i'll put a link to my drive. It's a heavy zip about 650 Mb, I think some apk's should be removed like FM that will not work on our nexus 4 but I can't do it today..

It's not a problem with TWRP, it's a rom size problem. Fullota.zip is too big and compatible with TWRP 3.0.2.
I'm reducing his size deleting sounds, apk's inside the zip.
I've made a first version that can be flashed (takes really long long time it's about 550Mb).
Unfortunatelly, boot begins, miui animation is charged, but get stuck with this message in logcat
