THIS APP IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED AND PROBABLY WILL NOT WORK.

This app only works on selected devices. Check the list at the bottom of this description.
This application requires root and it is designed to be used by experienced "power users".

It is strongly recommended to read XDA thread before installing this app, you can find links at the bottom of this description.

MultiROM Manager can install or update MultiROM, it's recovery and kernels. It can also install Ubuntu Touch system-image based builds into MultiROM as a secondary ROM.

MultiROM is one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod for Android devices. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch. Besides booting from device's internal memory, MultiROM can boot from USB drive connected to the device via OTG cable. The main part of MultiROM is a boot manager, which appears every time your device starts and lets you choose ROM to boot. You can see how it looks on the left image below and in gallery. ROMs are installed and managed via modified TWRP recovery. You can use standard ZIP files to install secondary Android ROMs, daily prebuilt image files to install Ubuntu Touch and MultiROM even has its own installer system, which can be used to ship other Linux-based systems.

Awesome!!! Nexus 5 Works GREAT!!!! This is an excellent app, it does it's job perfectly. The thing is NOT TO MESS WITH THE STOCK ROM!!! Leave that alone after installing multirom, then and only then will Ubuntu Touch boot, also you'll have no other problems with booting ROMs and whatnot. Another thing to take in mind is NOT EVERY UBUNTU IMG WILL BOOT!!! Do research and/or test to find which channels work for you. Great job to the devs who made this possible, it's like an lil Android BIOS, which btw is awesome!

GNU/Linux User

Awesome app. Run great on my Nexus 5 (6.0.1) , the only complaint is... Ubuntu card not working. I already select every single option. The phone reboot, Google logo appears, reboot again and back to ROMs screen. Please add option to choose between Ubuntu and Plasma Mobile(KDE).

fred Julio

Great app I want to install nethunter as my second rom. I had it as my first but was destroying my battery life so flash new pure Nexus as primary and still have all the files from the nethunter install. Flash pure Nexus as second rom and it boots up fine. But when I flash anything else like SuperSU,Kali kernel,or gapps ECT it never boots stay stuck at Google logo

Aman Amar

Does it support Android 7.1.1 ?????Awesome way to enjoy your cake with coffee 😉👍 Dev pl reply will this support Android N as I have tied on NEXUS 6 there is some problem! Is there an update which you are going to release ? I love to flash ROMs and this is the one app which is a must for every power user. Good job developer👏👏👏

Alan Gaudet

My device galaxy note 3 (hltecan) not supported but it looks great and maybe some day it will work for me. To all those giving 1 star because your device is not supported that is not fair. Go port it yourself

Steve Pringle

This app makes it so much easier to test different ROMs. If you have the Nexus 6, Ubuntu is not available to you. One Nexus 6 fell and scattered the screen. The other drowned so I am back to my Nexus 5 running M. Can't wait to see what's new from the devs.

Easiest yet most useful mod ive made to my device! Installs with literally just a tap of a button. I can swap between multiple roms, and install them on a usb/sdcard. This way I wont have to worry about wearing my phones emmc chip by flashing/testing so many new roms each day XD

Earlyseven Neverbroke May 2, 2016

Nexus-O+Evo 4G They can't function to my device its seems android version 4.4.4 and have extra 4 layer but absolutely malfunction. The nexus and their ally company have avail this kind of multirom manager. But I can give 4 star for developing this to the other android devices. Thanks more powers. God is Good all the time.

Neil September 29, 2016

Super cool idea. I can technically boot into two ROMs. That's awesome. Unfortunately, Internet is really slow/spotty on Dirty Unicorns, and the camera won't launch on stock (which is the only real reason I'd want a stock TW rom). Props for trying, and looks like it works for many others.

Hayden Mason-Bedford November 13, 2016

Be Careful This app has bricked my OnePlus One after updating the TWRP. I can't get it to open in to fast boot or recovery mode.

Syed Wafi Hasan March 19, 2017

Well, unfortunately, my device (kenzo) is unsupported. But, I've seen it working in a video. Hence, I'm more than glad to give it four stars, and hope my device will be supported soon. Five stars promised when my phone is supported.

Memento More August 4, 2017

Actually, I was looking for a solution like this! I needed to install my backup in the same device, so I've tried all other, which aren't working correctly. Also whit another, when I install the secondary ROM on my device, I cannot install the GAPPS!!! Thank you very much, amazing apps!! Keep your work!

Anchit Chitrigemath September 24, 2016

I just have one problem; when i boot into ubuntu after installing from this app, it won't boot into ubuntu and just reboots again into the stock os that I'm running on my o oneplus one. Everything else is just perfect

Pedro Amoedo May 2, 2016

This app is a must! Excelent work Can you please just review the ubuntu touch installation scripts? once updated the base rom to CM13 (android 6) seems that partition schema has changed and whatever flavour of utouch I try in my nexus4, it doesn't boot anymore. Thanks

J. Smith December 2, 2016

This is the most amazing app in the Play Store, and my personal favorite by far. Allows you to have multiple Android installations on the same device. Before I buy an Android device, I check 3 things: can it be rooted, can the bootloader be unlocked, and is it supported by MultiROM. ** Warning ** Once you try this app and experience the sheer awesomeness of having multiple versions of Android to use on the same device, you will find other unsupported devices with only 1 Android installation to be boring and lame. Mr. Bocek, you are a dev prodigy with insane next level skills. Mad props yo.

Icarus Tage February 6, 2017

I have this app on my nexus 5. but the Nexus has many issues. Please let me know when is available for Samsung s 5 Neo. I would love to continue using this app.

Hasan Alizadeh April 23, 2017

was best! but right now is worst! I mean, doesn't work on nougat specifically in nexus 6p with 7.1.2 Android version

Spencer McClendon August 21, 2016

This developer needs a donate button! I finally got to preview Ubuntu Touch! Thank you so much. I finally got to try Ubuntu Touch as well as other ROMs without having to lose my current setup. This shall have a permanent spot on my Nexus 4!

Yahya Rahman May 15, 2017

Amazing idea but there isn't much use for me as you can't use the same app data on different ROMs, so I would have to download the apps and games twice taking double the amount of storage and I would have to backup my game data with Titanium Backup before I change ROM every time, then restore the data. Please work on making the same app data available on all ROMs, unless we choose not to. Thank you.

Indra Wirawan September 3, 2016

Not supported My device is not supported. Im using Xperia z ultra,please update. I'll give 5 stars. Thnks

YoMarshMellow June 3, 2017

Useful if your on marshmallow, useless if your on nougat. You should add support for it on devices like Flo (which I'm testing on) and many more. Multirom on nougat would be great.

National Security Agency September 9, 2016

If u change the multiboot like I did u can run windows but its still a little glitchy but I'm in the works of making it work!! Thanks Yes

Krishnakumar KR July 25, 2016

Great app but unable to install ubuntu For some reason, I am unable to install the ubuntu OS from inside the app.

Rene Bauer March 5, 2016

awesome! i love it! perfect for experimenting with different ROMs. but i can't edit ROMs on SD-Card (ext4) with the app. they don't appear in the app.

فرحان باشا December 28, 2016

Please add OnePlus 3? It's unofficially supported. And works perfectly fine. I don't see the problem in adding convenience by officially supporting it.

Zed Kay April 28, 2016

Downloaded 400MB of data and Ubuntu just doesn't boot up! This is annoying

santosh pasupunuri April 12, 2017

NocturnalBoy April 19, 2017

Oops... doesn't supports my devicr yet... Hoping one day it can... the app seems to be the one what i was lookin for years 👍 plz make support for my device (j210f)

Thomas Anderson March 21, 2016

Nexus 5 I have used this for a long time now but latest update to 3.0.0 has some problems. It worked initially but when I updated primary rom, Multirom would seemed to be skipped and it would boot like it would if I didnt have it installed. Its there but wouldnt boot into it automatically, so I reinstall multirom over previous installation and it started at boot again. Then later, I found out my primary rom didnt have Kexec so through the Multirom app I installed Kexec. When it rebooted it skipped the Multirom boot

LUSOSEC 11B July 31, 2016

Ubuntu doesn't work. Tried most of the builds. Going to try another rom like copperhead. Anyway nice work thanks. will update when i try another rom. Nexus 5
