Hi,
it's possibile to install Windows 8, with vmware or something like this, on note 2? or we can only use the infrastrutture client server, of vwmare client for android? Because i need to intall it, in local, for work...
Thanks in advance.
That's an ambitious wish, but the Note 2 has no x68 architecture, so no...
Windows 8 on Arm won't help either, without some serious porting efforts an besides that: you' d need the specific Arm arcitecture Vmware client too...
You can however use web-based clients to control hypervisors. There are many, not only Vmware...

No. Not possible. Windows 8 is x86 architecture. You will never be able to run it on ARM.
WinRT or WP8 may be possible, but extremely unlikely.
All you'll really be able to do is use an RDP client to connect to a real Windows 8 machine.
I second the RDP method: I use it myself (Remote Desktop Client, Xtralogic) and on the Note 2 with all that screen real estate, it's a breeze...
Combine it with a VPN (either builtin or download OpenVPN) and you are ready to go anywhere with it.

Use windows launcher.... lancher 8
Windows phone 8 for Galaxy Note II.
I heard a windows phone 8 rom for galaxy note2 is already available. Is this true ? Does this mean we can run windows phone 8 OS in the note 2. I am excited. ..
No!

It isn't possible.
But....you can install windows8 launcher that fakes the appearence of windows 8. Search it on playstore.

I know I could technically play an app via any kind of remote viewer, but I don't think it would be able to use my transformers USB ports, unless I'm wrong.
What I'm aiming for, is using redsn0w, in ios jailbreaking app. It would be amazing because I have to run the windows program to boot my phone correctly.
Is there a way I can run a windows app natively, or at least could teamviewer use my keyboards ports?

Hello,
this topic was already discussed but little response.
I would like to install Windows 8 on my TF201 as in vivo tab which to my knowledge has the same characteristics as our premium.
Who has ideas? who can help us? The goal is to have android and windows 8 (use of Microsoft Office tools for efficient can android) and when the tablet starts we can choose between the two systems.
thank you

If you want MS Office the only way you are going to get it it to buy a Windows RT or Windows 8 device. Even if someone finds some kind of hack for it it won't be legal and microsoft will sue them out of business like apple dd with the company selling OSX on non-apple hardware.
I use a lot MS Word and Excel files in my Prime for work.
Polaris is as good as you need just for viewing.
To edit MS Word files. Polaris, Quickoffice and Officesuite are great.
To edit MS Excel files is more difficult but Planmaker has all you need.
MS Office for Android will be out in the Spring..
Google it.

This is the truth...
The textmaker and planmaker office programs are impressive indeed.... They are pricy but worth the cost as they are by far the best in my experience.

If you really need windows on your prime try using OnLive Desktop, it allows you to log in to your own personal Windows 7 virtual machine with access to apps like Word & Excel for free

I think Google Drive is awesome as it automatically makes your files accessible on Google Chrome on your computer.

SkyDrive does the same thing but with the added bonus of also working on your Xbox 360.

Sorry, i don't really get it yet... Does it run entirely on android? If so, how does it differ from launchers? And can it run on other linux kernel, specifically a x64 one? I would like to have a touch-friendly linux on my tablet which i could dual-boot with windows 8.1 (x64 version, not RT) without using any virtualizing, emulating, or buggy workarounds like android-x86...

Can you suggest me a WM or a DE suitable for touch? I have tried kde active, but it launched into the regular kde
That's here and it's called Ubuntu Desktop Next. Basically the Ubuntu desktop with the phone and tablet UI.
Download link: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-desktop-next/daily-live/current/
Just wondering, is the current Ubuntu Touch supporting a full desktop when connected to a monitor like through an HDMI?
I saw videos from Ubuntu on this feature and wanted to know if it working?

It's not working yet. Canonical has proven that the concept can work by its Ubuntu for Android project. After the release of version 14.04 two weeks ago, they will start work on bringing Unity 8 (the desktop environment, current desktop version is 7 while the phone version is already Unity 8) and the Mir display server to the desktop. Afterwards, it should theoretically be possible to do that stuff. Additionally, they will continue to improve their SDK for the development of Ubuntu apps which already work on all platforms (phone, tablet and desktop) and adjust to screen size.
The whole concept is what they call Convergence.

Some of their ideas for convergence are quite awesome. The recent news has been that they have stopped the Ubuntu for Android project. I have been wondering since where their views on complete integration, their "one device to rule the all" direction, is heading.

It's great on both PC and mobile. However, on mobile it still has a long way to go until it reaches the state when it can be used by the average end-user. Keep in mind that it's making progress very fast though.
Has anyone tried to install a windows emulator on your nexus 9? I don't even know if it is possible, but I would like to run visual studio express. If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated.
