I know it's possible to unlock the bootloader for the FHD 10 but how would I boot windows? I noticed people flash rooted images after they unlock bootloaders, would booting windows be the same? Would I need to create a windows image and then flash it like one would a rooted image?
Here's how to root the FHD 10 . Flashing full versions of windows 8.1 on and android x86 device seems like something no one has done yet. It will be awesome when it happens though.
Technically the hardware could support Windows 8, but I doubt we'll be seeing anyone trying to bring the OS to the ME302C. There just aren't enough developers interested in the tablet and it's not as simple as putting windows onto a new computer is.
windows on mobile devices (all versions) does not get as much support as android. and they are not open source so their hacks and mods are very few.
A $250 Win 8 tablet will draw in developers. I believe a lot of Asus Transformer Prime Devs will be interested.
As for installing windows, your right, tablet bios' are very basic.Either a bios will need to be ported or something like twrp2 could be used to make flashing a windows image manageable.
The biggest problem is getting things to work on x86, even the asus bootloader unlock was written for ARM and needs to be recompiled.
Another problem is storage. Even 32GB is not enough for Windows (not RT).
If you managed to install OS on SD, it's a different story.
Windows 8.1 has a minimum storage requirement of 16 GB. Installing programs would be best on a micro sd card. Although the fhd comes in both 16 and 32 gb. Enough to install microsoft office and some other productivity apps without a sd card.

I have a Toshiba Satellite L505, running Windows 7 Home Premium (dual core 1st gen i3).
Recent events have made me need to run android-only programs on a semi-daily basis. Combined with the cool factor, I am seriously considering buying a Honeycomb tablet. However, money is limited and I can't really afford it, so I would most likely wind up with a rooted nook color, or just upgrading my phone (LG Vortex). Not terrible options, but my sister has suggested something that would work just as well, if not better, for free.
I know there's at least some version of android that is compatible with x86 processors, and i could get my laptop to dual-boot W7HP and Android, that would be wonderful. Obviously I would want 3.0 Honeycomb, but I would be willing to install 2.4, 2.3, or 2.2. if something newer is not available.
The problem is, I have scoured google and found nothing about this, at all. I have heard of people installing android on their laptops, and some netbooks/laptops are even sold dual-booting, so I know its possible. Now, how on earth would I go about installing android as a secondary OS on my computer? So far I have only been able to find instructions to create an Android Live CD/SD/flash drive, but i need something permanently on my computer, where i can actually save my work and apps to the hard drive. WiFi, keyboard, trackpad, and USB drivers are required, CD and SD would be greatly appreciated as well.
How would i accomplish this? Any and all help would be massively appreciated.
um, hello? anyone?
Yeah thats because only google has a bootable version of their os on a pc. They implement their virtual tool with sdk tool so thats how they want you do it its crazy..There is probably a way though you just have to modify the boot.ini file on your hard drive thus pointing it to the android os. First youll probably need a new hard drive if it can be done on a usb it can be done on a hard drive plain and simple. Dual booting is done through the bios. The bios is what loads the HD which loads the boot.ini file telling it what to boot. Not sure if that would work but its a start there might even be a windows app that will help you do this. Like I said if people are making bootable usb drives its the same process on a hard drive the bios is whats booting that usb so if you direct the bios to an extended hard drive thus booting the android os. Its the same process as it would be on a usb that would make it permanent and there is a program called EasyBCD which easily allows you to change the boot.ini which will basically allow you to have the selection of both operating systems on boot you can choose between the two once you get it working!
Actually it is so much easier. The Android x86 project uses grub. You can boot it and run from livecd, usb or install android to your home pc. I started doin this today to see what the performance benefits would be from a developer point of view.
Installation is pretty straight forward, with loads of tutorials on the website. Have a look at it here http://www.android-x86.org/
I have installed Prime OS classic 0.4.5 works fine on my L505-LS5014
Just wondering if it was possible to install windows (xp or newer) after the bootloader is hacked.
I got bored and looked at all the minimum requirments and the nook tablet meets all of them (except for hdd requirents for vista and 7) however i don't know anything about processor architecture and compatibility.

I don't mean to smash your dream, but there is a 0% chance of that happening. Window XP will not work on ARM.
Windows 8 will be the first version with an ARM port and I seriously doubt even the Nook Tablet has the horsepower / memory / emmc space to run it.

I am using windows phone 8.1 (lumia 535) . i have just tried to install haret following the exact instructions from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=648045 but when i am trying to install on my 16 GB sd card using sd reader on my pc it showing that haret is naot a valid win 32 file to run.
and i also tried to install it on my phone however i didnt understand in the instruction where to do it. there it also indicating that is an error .
so is it possible to install android in lumia 535 dual??
or the haret is invalid for my phone? Am i have to use another sd card?
please can anyone tell me??
No Android on windows phone 8.x.
I'm going to give you the benefit of a doubt that you simply don't know anything at all about wither Haret or Windows Phone, and advise you to take a long, step beck from whatever you were trying to do. There are so many problems...
1) Those steps are for Windows Mobile. Windows Phone is *NOT* Windows Mobile. WP7 had a lot in common (though also a lot different) with WinMo, but WP8.x has almost nothing in common with WinMo.
2) That post was written before WP7 was even released, much less WP8. Expecting it to work on an OS that wasn't even released yet is... unreasonable.
3) Haret requires very deep access into the OS internals. WinMo had a very minimal security system that basically allowed apps to run as root without any restriction. WP (even WP7, much less 8.x) is much more restrictive.
4) Those steps explicitly say they require running unsigned code. While technically that's possible on WP8 via sideloaded apps, anything that isn't signed and isn't installed via .APPX or .XAP isn't going to run.
I could go on...
TL;DR: Can I install Linux on the Venue 8 7000?
Hello, I am new to this forum, so please correct me, if I do anything wrong. I would like to buy the Venue 8 7000, but Android is not enough for me, as I'd like to develop desktop apps. Installing Linux should not be that hard, if it is possible to choose the boot device, which could be blocked. I mean, do Tablets work as normal Computers? Do I just need to hit F8 or something like that? Also what Architechture is the Processor? It is Intel, so I'd suspect i686 or x86_x64. Would I need to install the OS on the Tablet's internal memory? If so, do apps themselves need internal memory? I have never owned a Tablet before, so I don't know. If all of this doesn't work, could you recommend me another small Tablet? I read somewhere on here, that someone got it working on an nVidia SHIELD, so this shouldn't be too much different.
Thanks!
Do you think there's any way to install WIN 10/11 on our tablet? (No emulators)[Dual Boot Maybe], even the ARM version works.
I am also ready to install (dualboot) chrome os (CloudReady), but for that we need the device to boot from live usb which maybe isn't available on our tablet, and if it is, please guide me.
I've done my part of research and I've been using the tab s 7+ for about 4 months now. I need windows or a full on chrome desktop experience of windows. My last resort for this will be Linux/Ubuntu, which i am not willing to go for, but will do if i have no other option.

I haven't heard of anyone installing windows 10 even windows 11 on an android tablet like the tab s7
Your best bet would be Linux or smth like that because the kernel would be similar.
Windows can’t be installed because Windows use a different kernel process from Linux and android, nonetheless, I don't know if anyone has managed to run it.

Won't happen.
The bootloader will not allow it and Win 10/11 does not support the Qualcomm 865 SOC.

I don't think the 845 was supported either, yet the Oneplus 6t runs Windows 11 though
Here's Windows 11 running on a OnePlus 6T months before it gets Android 11 [Video]

It loads and kinda runs, but core SOC features do not work.
So no, the 845 is not "supported".
No network, no bluetooth, no sound, partially functioning GPU... that's not a functional device.
An of course the high risk of bricking your device.
it is windows 11, idk if windows ARM would run it but idk, i rather not risk breaking my phone for installing windows

Here's how to install Windows on Android tablets
You can't directly install Windows on an Android tablet, but you can certainly use it on one. Here's how to use Windows on an Android tablet.

I wish this was possible .. now i am selling my tablet over this hhhh i mean cause i need to run windows
While the Windows 11 ARM Versions start to slowley emerge for some android devices, give Parsec a try for your Remote Desktop work. It differs from RDP, since over parsec you can actually use the Host PC's GPU.
There are some android tablets that have Windows 11 up and running: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaom...devices-that-can-run-Windows-11.604674.0.html
