Hi there. Is there any chanse to boot Remix Os on this kind of tablets? Everything goes only to "detecting android" then stuck with black screen. Why ?
Hi, this is because on those tablets there's mostly Android on it, which means Remix OS' boot loader is not able to correctly detect those preinstalled partitions. If this is a dual boot tablet (Android + Windows), try starting up Windows first, then shutdown, then try starting RemixOS again.
baytrail
I know on my baytrail tablet, which came with windows on, to boot ubuntu I have to edit the grub.cfg to get it to boot. And even then it just shows a black screen for a very long time before getting to the UI.
While android is not ubuntu they do have a lot in common. I could dig out the grub.cfg if that helps.
I am running Remix OS on my Winbook TW-801 now and it works great.
Got this running on my NEC Lavie tw-708...works smooth and stable..but driver problems are present..
No Bluetooth
No rotation
No GPS
No audio
No brightness controls
No battery gauge
WiFi works
Video playback is smooth
The chipset of the device Intel atom 3735F..its a bay trail chipset with a 32bit uefi..
So strange that mine Acer W4-820 stucks on black screen after Detecting. WTF?
Means I am lucky that my tablet manufacturer officially released Remix OS.

The above does not work on my TW-801 either but I do have audio (it kind of sounds crackely though - when I route the video and audio via hdmi out -only the video works). Other than those things it works good. I was surprised that the touch screen works for me when running Remix OS. Now I want to try and make a NTFS sd and expand the data.img file so I can have more space. Anybody able to get it running on a NTFS sd and expand the data.img file? For a $150 tablet this TW-801 was a great bargain. Now I can run Windows 10, Ubuntu via VMware virtual machine, and Android. The TW-801 has a SD slot that works with 128GB sdcard - so I might try to make a partition on it. For now I am running Remix OS using a 3.0 usb card reader with a 32GB sdcard. The TW-801 has a full size 3.0 usb slot. I can also run a 3.0 usb hub for multiple usb slots (usb keyboard/mouse). I think I can use Linux Deploy to install Linux to a separate sdcard using the usb hub because there are x86 distros.

Make sure you have a fast sdcard - I used a slower one first and couldn't get it to boot.

Winbook TW802
Hi
I see one person got it to work on a Winbook. No matter what I do I can't seem to get it to boot off the USB. I got into the BIOS and put all the USB options to the top, made sure secure boot was disabled. It just goes right to Windows. no matter what I try. I also tried Legacy and EFI versions. Same result on both.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

make sure that you have the file bootia32.efi in /EFI/BOOT/ on you usb dongle.
I successfully boot on the key but it doesn't arrive on the desktop and stays stuck on a Black Screen. I have an Chuwi vi8 plus xz8300 bay trail processor.

Take a look on linux boot params on grub. try to test another params. bootia32.efi should work on any bay trail as John Wells do it for Ubuntu.

Not true. Microsoft Surface (2, 3, 4) uses those chipsets, and doesn't come with Android on it. My Teclast tablet doesn't have Android on it. Neither do 2 other tablets I looked at.
RemixOS doesn't seem to boot properly on any of these.

For those who gets back screen after reboot, the solution from a linuxium's post might help. Sorry i was not able to paste an external link here. You can find the while post on google+ searching for linuxium or ian morrison.

Sometimes after installing your device only boots to a black screen. *Typically this happens when the NVRAM and ESP are out of sync. This can be easily fixed by performing the following:
1. Start with the device switched off.
2. Connect your LiveUSB.
3. Power on the device and press the relevant function key or key sequence to boot from the LiveUSB.
4. Open a terminal windows and enter:
type efibootmgr*
5. If the 'efibootmgr' is not installed enter:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y efibootmgr
6. Next remove any boot entries that may have been created through the earlier installs by entering:
* * * for BOOTENTRY in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
* * * do
* * * * * sudo efibootmgr -b ${BOOTENTRY} -B
* * * done
7. Now create an Ubuntu boot entry by entering:
sudo efibootmgr -c -d /dev/mmcblk0 -p 1 -l \\EFI\\ubuntu\\grubx64.efi -L Ubuntu
8. Remove the LiveUSB and reboot from the newly created Ubuntu entry.
Note: If you have a dual boot installation then the ESP partition may be the second partition so modify the '-p 1' in the command above to '-p 2' or to whatever the ESP partition is. Likewise for some devices the eMMC is '/dev/mmcblk1' and not '/dev/mmcblk0' so again modify the command as appropriate. If your device uses a 32-bootloader then use 'bootia32.efi' rather than 'grubx64.efi' in the command. It also sometimes doesn't work first time and requires all the steps to be repeated which should then fix the issue

Hello everyone,
I am having trouble with the new version of Remix OS 2 Beta.
I am running a 64 bit machine, and downloaded the correct version. I used the installation tool (not the original usb tool, but the one that allows you to install to the C drive) and it appeared that everything was installed correctly "BUT". When i boot i get the two options (Windows 10, Remix OS). I choose the Remix OS option, and it gives me an error (remixos/kernel error). So, i did some research and it says that the os might not recognize that i have a 64 bit machine. I then proceeded with the same installation but 32 bit this time since it should allow me to use that version if i have a 64 bit machine right? It allows me to boot, but then stays in limbo on the ASUS boot screen until i restart. any suggestions.
Have the same exact issue. Are you booting with legacy or efi

Take the intrid.img from the Android x86 project of 5.1.1 and replace that on the usb before install. Worked for me. Rinning Beta 64bit now wheni could only run 32bit before.

Run it off the USB. When option comes for resident or guest hit tab and add to the line (or e for edit) INSTALL=1
I have a 64 bit machine and it installed fine. I don't think I had to change any setting from the installer. Wouldn't work with the alpha but the beta installed and booted right up. When it was installing there was like an 8 minute timeframe where it seemed it wasn't doing anything and my monitor (an hd tv) was getting no signal but I just let it keep running and finally it came back on and it booted right up. I installed to the harddrive also btw.
Thank you all for your feed back. I will try some of your suggestions in the morning. I didn't think I would get a response this fast haha. Thanks again for now.

I tried both ways and and with efi just got the kernel issue. It seems that everything installed correctly but when I choose remix OS it tries to boot and I get the remixos/kernel error
This sounds exactly the same issue than I have with Dell Venue 11 pro (7140). It has Windows 10 installed and secure boot is disabled in BIOS. I can select Remix OS in boot menu but then the following errors are displayed Remix OS doesn't start:
error: 'ntfs' is already loaded.
error: 'exfat' is already loaded.
error: no such device: /RemixOS/kernel.
error: file '/RemixOS/kernel' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first.

If you would share some info with us, we might be able to provide a fix :
In Windows, open Run dialog. (Windows key pressed + r)
Type msinfo32 and enter.
You'll see a lot of information, please list the following :
1. System type
2. Processor
3. Bios mode
4. Platform Role
5. Secure boot state
6. Installed Physical Memory (Ram)
7. Total Physical Memory.
Also tell which version of beta you used. 32-bit or 64-bit?

You have as 64-bit capable CPU, as detailed on http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-Atom-Z3736F-Tablet-SoC.122214.0.html
So 64-bit beta should work for you. Don't know why 32-bit UEFI systems have this issue.
However I'll inform you as soon as I update my Grub2Win guide.

First the issues. I was not able to figure out how to set it up to where I can install Remix OS on my chromebook's SSD instead of having to use a USB stick. I also wasn't able to figure out why running the ISO installer tool that comes with the most recent download (yesterday) didn't work. I used it on a 32GB PNY USB flash drive, but after going into the legacy boot menu on my Chromebook, and selecting my USB stick to boot from, it was not able to find an operating system. Instead, I used Linux Live USB Creator (LiLi). I manually selected the Remix OS ISO that came with the download, and installed it to my USB stick. My chromebook recognized it immediately as a bootable OS. It even gave me the options for guest mode, and write mode. I chose write mode. The only downside to this is not being able to choose how large the partitions should be. Either way, it installed successfully.
The awesome parts. It recognized and works uniformly with my chromebook's touch screen and touch pad. Zero issues. It even recognizes some touch-pad short cuts like two-finger scrolling, etc. It doesn't recognize some of my keys on the keyboard itself, like volume up/down, and brightness up/down, but this is easily managed at the task bar. I also tested Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes to see if games would be sluggish running on a USB stick. I don't know about all games, but that one in particular ran as though it was on my Nexus 7. Super smoothly, with no issues. Aside from it being a bit sluggish running apps for the first time, (it frequently asked if I wanted to wait, or to force close Facebook and others - hitting wait works), I am very impressed with the experience. It's everything I could hope for in a beta android desktop OS! :good: :good:
PS, I'm actually running it right now as I type this.
I got it to install on my Acer R14 with a triple boot, windows 10, ubuntu, remix os. If you use universal usb installer and install directly to a NTFS partition on your hard drive you can use RMXtools to make the data .img whatever size you want. I did it for 50GB and have installed alot of apps and i still have 48GB left. I really like this OS.
Well I tried ubuntu on my chromebook for a while, but wasn't feeling it. I would have to put it on in order to install Remix OS to a hard drive no?
No just use universal usb installer and select non-linux installation and install directly to your ntfs drive. The expand the data file with RMXTools to whatever size you want.

There has got to be some variation in components with revisions of the C720P, because no OS I have tried to boot on mine has supported the mouse other than Gallium.

Asus T100 uses Intel Atom Z3740, a 64bit processor. So use the 64-bit version of Remix OS. The 64-bit version of Remix OS also has UEFI, which makes making the drive easier, and booting faster. Make the bootable USB as per instructions, and disable secure boot in your BIOS. You should then be able to boot from the USB.
it won't work. T100 has 64bit processor but a 32bit system

Ok I just did it so, here is how I did it. Use gparted, from gparted.org, booted up, partitioned, small 500MB FAT32 formated partition, second partition EXT4 the rest, 58GB+. Then took 32bit beta using JIDE's tool to put on a USB stick. Booted the stick and when it came up, entered e, to enter grub boot config. On the second line removed the part after and put INSTALL=1. Installed android to the larger partition, then installed grub, grub efi, formated, then rebooted. Side loaded google services from this forum and it works. Bugs, biggest issue is no audio. Let me know if you have any luck.

From windows:
1) Dowmload and unpack RMX installer everywere you want (you will have a folder called RMX installer).
2) enter on RMX installer folder and execute the .EXE file.
3) Browse for the Remix OS .ISO file (use the 64 bits one, works like a charm for me )and choose the Data size (will create the data.img file).
4) disable secure boot and fast boot in your BIOS.
5) Boot and you will see the grub menu with Remix OS and Windows options.

OK but Asus t100 only uses 32bit which isn't a problem. And I don't have windows on it I have anot her computer that has windows on it but the Asus t100 has no OS at the moment I'm trying to install remix on it without installing windows so if the RMX Installer only works with a Windows installed then I have no use for it
Yes I'm having the same problem, with the new T100 that has both OS and CPU 64 bit.
The thing is, whatever you do grub won't detect either an external SD card or the keyboard dock's HDD as a boot option. They don't even show up in BIOS ! The only possibility seems to be booting from internal storage, which is too limited to dual boot Windows + Remix OS.
Anyone has tips for this ?
Thanks

When installing Ubuntu on a Surface Pro I had to use a USB-keyboard as the BIOS didn't recognise the original one. If you have one laying around you should try.

GRUB
libergm said:
Ok I just did it so, here is how I did it. Use gparted, from gparted.org, booted up, partitioned, small 500MB FAT32 formated partition, second partition EXT4 the rest, 58GB+. Then took 32bit beta using JIDE's tool to put on a USB stick. Booted the stick and when it came up, entered e, to enter grub boot config. On the second line removed the part after and put INSTALL=1. Installed android to the larger partition, then installed grub, grub efi, formated, then rebooted. Side loaded google services from this forum and it works. Bugs, biggest issue is no audio. Let me know if you have any luck.
V/R,
Gary

how can i install grub? i tried every method found in the internet but non of them worked.
please help
Hey guys, Meep here, I'm new!
So yesterday I tried installing Remix OS on my HP Pavilion 17, (Core i5-4200M) and a HD 8000M card from AMD.
I intalled the 64 bit version using the HDD installer provided with the ISO, and when done, I select the partition, after some text the RemixOS logo flashes for let's say 3 minutes, then it goes to a black screen witha mouse that I can use with my trackpad, and that goes away when I click a key on the keyboard. If I leave it there for let's say 5 minutes, the fan will start to go crazy. normal AndroidX86 works fine booting from USB. and my laptop is UEFI, so the 32 bit doesn't work either. making the USB installer with both the RemiXos tool and Rufus didn't help. after the remix os logo I am thrown into a black screen with a mouse. any help? thanks in advance.!
It's probably due to the amd card, remix does not play well with non intel graphics cards atm(they're trying to get it to work). The march 1st build was a lot more stable for me but it autoupdates so couldn't stay there. You could try to add nouveau.modeset=0 i915.modeset=1 to the menu.lst file(inside remixos folder) under kernel to force it to use the intel integrated.

Hey. I tried using all kinds of parameters, nomodeset, nomodeset vga 7**, what you said, but everything stops working. now I just get to a black screen, with a stuck white dash at the top left. strange thing is, only thing that works is the brightness support on the keyboard!

I managed to get it Installed to a hard drive partition, I had all kinds of issues with that but I've had issues with the 32bit efi on most linux distros. The boot up is still a bit buggy.
I copied the USB to the hard drive after installing to the USB the live ISO. I booted the partition through the bios (might have changed some grub option to get it to boot). I then changed the Grub option to load the install. I installed to the same drive and left it NTFS made a 3gb data.img. After messing around with the file system and grub, I got that booting. Install/updates apps but not the system update, that hangs at 20%.
I've had nothing but problems with this 32bit EFI/64bit systems. I'm trying to get some Linux running fairly nice so I can remove Win 10 , I don't see that happening
I've had luck with Ubuntu Zesty Linuxium build but only to the point of it being a Laptop.
On Remix the screen stays in Portrait and it don't fill the screen, its centered. No Bluetooth, No sound but I did see a link here for possible fix for that. No touch Screen. No battery ready, stays at 100%.
On the plus side the Docking keyboard works and wifi.
It looks like a nice GUI, its the first time I've looked at it.
I assume I'm missing a lot Kernel modules and firmware? Most of what I read looks like old info on these X86 Tablets. Is there anything new to help set them up, what works on them and what don't? I'd like to start with display and sound. Move to touch. Mostly all I care about and a working battery meter.
Thanks PS still boots Windows 10

I managed to boot 32 bit legacy install on a baytrail 2-in-1 tablet with intel atom z37355 ( Notion Ink Cain 10) alongside windows 10. Though the processor supports x64 as it says, the installation always failed, but 32 bit installation succeeded ( to my surprise). I booted up with fully functional touchscreen, wifi, detachable keyboard,wireless usb mouse etc.
Bugs:
No autorotate ( a third party seems to allow me to manually rotate though).
Power and volume hardware buttons dont work ( no volume either).
System seems to freeze if left alone after a while ( however, playstore downloads that were stuck are resumable after force shutdown are start).
Battery indicator stuck at 100% ( am trying to calibrate using some random battery app, but i really doubt it would work)
I'm gonna install kernel aduitor and check if the system freeze after a while can be fixed ( some guy said changing kernel governer to interactive would fix it) later.
All above bugs are known i guess. Just putting it in here so someone with baytrail tablet googles it can see it in one place
