Sorry if I sound noobish but Since windows 8 is supose to run on ARM and there is n-trig pen support.... Would it be posible to get it running on the flyer?
There is supose to be a release tonight at 8pm of a working developers version of the new os and I think there is a leak version for ARM.
hi,
is there any chance to get windows xp or windows 7 running on my note?
i dont want a dual.
something like virtualbox would be nice.
i already serached, but i only found one nice ubuntu guide and a win 95 one.
i know that smartphone are not build to run a windows os aber guys you are the best.
Teamviewer and remote desktop not the solution
thank you
I don't think you're going to have much joy. Windows 7 and XP are built for x86/x64 architectures, the Note has an ARM CPU and I know of no cross-architecture virtualisation software for Android, or ARM for that matter.
Windows 8 will have an ARM build, so that's a more likely proposition for the future.
Has anyone put work into bringing windows to the non-pro Dell Venue 8? I have a Dell Venue 8 3830 I can dedicate to testing if anyone is willing to attempt it. Not sure if it's based on a uefi like it's pro version counterpart or if it could be hacked to support it from existing images for the pro.
Shouldn't be restricted to Windows. I'm sure if a UEFI based firmware can run on this tablet, it could be used for Linux just as easily as windows.
They're not uefi sorry only the Venue 10 5050 is uefi

Very similar tablets by Dell exist (the Pro versions) which are UEFI based. In theory it's possible to adapt it's firmware for this tablet due to the nearly identical hardware.

Good luck : but those two are not even close to identical hardware
3830 Clovertrail Plus
5830 Baytrail

Are you saying it's not possible, or that it would just take too much work by too many people and there aren't nearly enough people interested in trying it?

All the above biggest hurdle would be that the windows bootloader doesn't support sfi and then there are the proprietary graphics.
Really the only way it could be done would be by building a intel android boot image that supported xen and then boot windows as a VM. The bootstub used on the devices does support xen kernels but there is next to no documentation on how to build or set it up. Also I don't remember if the virtualization of the clovertrail plus soc supports hardware pass through or not.

Makes sense. Was hoping to run Windows on it just because I tinker with things in my spare time. Guess I'll search around for one of those Android/Windows dual boot tablets since those are usually not to expensive and less of a pain to get working than dual booting with Android manually. Thanks for the info.
Is there a plan of releasing a Version for x86 cpu?
I have an older netbook where the cpu is not x64 compatible, is there maybe a way to make it work there .
Because windows is very slow on it and i can`t find the right linux disto for me.

Simple answer is no. You cannot.
As far as linux is concerned, go to sourceforge and get a slimmed down linux iso. There are so many wonderful ones, even I use it. Slimmed linux distros are very light on the system, with all useless apps removed.
There will be a 32bit version released soon.
See this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remix-os-pc-update-version-2016012301-t3300940
I'm curious if the Remix O.S. can be used with a Raspberry Pi 3 which came out recently
( https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-3-on-sale/ )
I understand that the Remix Os is compatible with x86 chipsets (i.e. 32-bit chipsets)
And the Raspberry Pi 3 uses a 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU
however, even though the Pi 3 is 64-bit and the Remix Os is 32-bit, that doesn't mean it can't be installed, does it?
the website I mentioned above has a section that says "At launch, we are using the same 32-bit Raspbian userland that we use on other Raspberry Pi devices; over the next few months we will investigate whether there is value in moving to 64-bit mode."
so apparently a 32bit O.S. can be installed, even though the Raspberry Pi is a 64-bit chipset.
So i suppose my question is, has anybody come up with a way to see if this is possible or has anyone done it yet?
Any 64 bit processor is going to be able to run a 32 bit operating system. The only thing about that is that the OS may not take full advantage of what the processor is capable of. Check the RemixOS website for information regarding 64 bit support.

It appears that RemixOS offers a 64 operating system. Getting it on the Rasberry Pi should be as easy as pie.

No, at least not the RemixOS for PC(x86).
x86 doesn't mean == 32bit; x86 is the chip architecture; developed by intel and is used by intel/amd chips. It contains different standards with x86 being used in a different context to identify the 32bit variant and x86_64 (or more accurately AMD64 as the 64bit standard was created by AMD) for 64bit.
ARM is a completely different architecture, and has it's own variants; arm (or arm-v7 - and below) for 32bit and arm64 (arm-v8) for 64bit.
Just to clear up some of the other inaccuracies RemixOS for PC has both x86 and x86_64 versions; PhoenixOS just for completeness - last I checked was using a 64bit kernel with a 32bit(x86) system.
Not sure if/when RemixOS would be available for the Rpi3 but it would need to be treated like any other arm based system (android phone/tablet) and get a device specific custom build (not sure if the arm-based sources are available...)

so you say it'll be "Easy as Pie"...... lets hope that's true..... I'd love to see somebody do it. However i think HypoTurtle has confirmed that it's impossible

Impossible is a word that should never be uttered here on XDA Developers. With enough support from the community anything is possible in the realms of running a custom OS, especially any Linux based OS such as Android on a device that supports Linux OOTB.
Another option may be to go with the Pine 64 which supports RemixOS natively if you don't want to wait. I suggest the 2GB 16GB version as it will support the camera peripheral if you so chose to add that on at a later time.
Their own product the Remix Mini runs Remix OS on a 1,2 GhHz quad-core cortex A53 (64-bit) Allwinner SOC, wich should be simular to the SOC of the Raspberry Pi 3

I buy it.
The performance is pretty fast, but can be faster.
The Cortex-A53 supports the full ARMv8-A architecture.

so does that mean that the Remix Mini and the Raspberry Pi 3 are the same processor and that remix os should work on RP3

They are not really the same processor, it's just the same architecture.

Unfortunately, ARM is not universal like x86, so you are not going to get very good results, if any.
It's like trying to boot a rom for the OnePlus One on a LG G3, just because they run on the same chipset.
You could try porting it if you know how to, though, if the Remix mini and the RP3 actually run on the same chipset.
I think Raspbian OS is Best OS for Raspberry Pi 3. This operating system is specially designed for raspberry pi devices. I am using raspbian for my project based on raspberry pi starter kits.
It may be possible
For this to happen, the rpi should running android stable enough.
For now the most stable android project for rpi is been developed in this group:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/android-rpi
but even this isn't stable enough, it should be soon
here are the roms for arm someone with porting knowledge could probably use them http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/nanopi2 http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/pinea64 http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/mini the kernel source is available for the remix mini but i would like to keep this thread going for the devs because remix os on the raspberry pi 3 model b should be interesting as an alternative to lineage which sucks on the pi not saying it don't run im saying it sucks because of the dumb privacy guard i like my android devices to have full root and not have dev options disappear like the trash on tuesday
