I was wondering If it is possible to change Android OS with Windows 8...Is there any way to do that(such as changing ROM)or it's impossible?

Closest way is to flash a ROM that has been themed to wp8 or using a windows themed launcher from the play store. You will never get true windows running on an android for o so many reasons

Two letters: No.
At least as far as I know, WP is limited. Android has a market that has everything and iOS has Cydia.. I hope we get something like a jailbreak for our phones.
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.

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...

Use a better wm/de on ubuntu x64 that's better for touch rather than looking at ubuntu arm

Can you suggest me a WM or a DE suitable for touch? I have tried kde active, but it launched into the regular kde

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.

this should work
although streaming is a better option just download something like team viewer or splashtop and connect your pc to it and enjoy
Is it possible for an app that is suitable only for Android 4 or lower to run on Android 5? Now it crashes the app Android 5 but not in Android 4?
Unfortunately there is no option to update this app to a newer version.
