I think that a porting ss possible but the windows 8 preview platform releas today is not for ARM acritecture right?
As soon as possibile hope that some devel will be a windows 8 port for folio 100.
let me know what U thinking.
thanks.
Yes, I heared for it but not arm version . I saw a post that say that windows 8 arm version will be for TEGRA 2(and some others arm processors)!!!
Hmmm, Windows is ugly in my opinion (sorry, I'm a Linux fan)... But, anyway, I don't think it's good for Folio as the RAM requirements won't fit... Heard it need at least 1Gb of RAM
That and Windows 8 won't be open source. That mean you can't do any porting work(with system you can do something but with kernel nothing)
Hey,
I whas trying diffrent distros off android x86 on my dell d630 with intel x3100 graphics.
The only distro that worked whas working whas android 4.2
But this version does not have the arm translator. Is there any way to get it in to there?

only intel got the sources, its not an open project afaik.
and the executable blob exist only for 4.1
Aww crap.
Is there any place i can check the progress of developing?
I can' t run gb/ics, and jelly bean isn't ready.

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

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
Hi Users and Devs
im writing my test results here about dual booting and other operating Systems that i have installed them on my yoga book Windows Version and i will try to explain lot of Details about this stuff
First i will share the operating Systems and Details about what work and what not on yoga book.
Ubuntu(17.10.1), PhoenixOS(2.6.2 based on Android-x86 Nougat 7.1.1), BlissOS(10.1 based on Android-x86 Oreo 8.1.0), DeepinOS (15.5): no Sound, no halo Keyboard, no Auto rotating, no sensors, no Bluetooth, only Booting, Touch Screen, Screen brightness controling and WiFi are working
Android-x86(7.1.2), Openthos(Based on Android-x86 Lolipop 5.1): nothings at all
There might be a lot of other OSs that i might Forget to mention above, but i released why some Hardware cant work like Sound, Bluetooth,......
the main Problem is the KERNEL(the kernel is a big Collection of modules and Drivers that boot up our Hardwares as soon as we enter any Operation system), some kernels 4,9.x cant boot or wifi and touch Screen cant work, all kernels 4.12.x Support booting, touch Screen and wifi, all kernels 4.15.x Support booting, touch Screen, brightness controling and wifi
the only kernel that will make other OSs work like a charm and without any missing Drivers is buildslave kernel, this kernel came pre-load with most of Lenovo Yoga series + Yoga Book (for yoga Book Android users go to about tablet and check out it), the Problem is that i dont have a 100 GB (i will explain this later) ( in 22 mar 2018 they released the second Version of the Open Source Code for Lenovo YB1-X90F/L https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/products/TABLETS/YOGA-SERIES/YOGA-BOOK/downloads/DS118515 ) also depend on my Tests the kernel is only for Android 6.0.1, not for 7.1.1
i tried to build Android x86 from sources using Yoga Book Open Source Code from Lenovo but AOSP files are Need at least 100 GB with Additional files from Android x86 abot 20 gb, unfortunatly i dont have this big size of hard disk on my SSD
Yoga Book Android and Windows versions are 99.99% contain the same hardwares (0.01% are only the Keyboard shapes but also the halo Keyboard is the same in both) thats why it make my optimistic about running Stock yb Android Rom on Windows (Windows Version of yb used same bios as yoga Windows series, but yb Android Version use the same bios as yoga Android series does and all of yoga win and Android series based on Insyde bios)
Android yoga Book System based on Android-IA Project which is from Intel to allow Android run in Intel CPUs https://01.org/android-ia as yoga Book based on cherry Trails cpu
for Android yb users you can install Windows and other OSs on your device but you will force same Bugs above and you need to buy a licence key to get Windows updates on it (i only have yb Windows so i dont know lot of informations about this)
Windows yb BIOS contains a very basic informations and options (for example there is no UEFI and legacy option, there is also no ACPI enable;disable option, cpu overclocking......)
I believe there is a way to install Android stock in yb windows, i mean through reimagie the eMMC, for more infos, visit http://en.miui.com/thread-419845-1-1.html

MOD EDIT: LINK REMOVED
i will add more informations in the future:fingers-crossed: Also i might be wrong about stuff, after all its my expermints and thoughts

What makes you believe the Android YB has an Insyde Bios? Not really, and as many tests demonstrated it not even has a proper ACPI implementation.

Windows BIOS dont support ACPI implementation, that because its hidden and it need to be edited through platform.ini editor tools (inside yb win version bios), the chipset on yb win and android (so far i know both are insyde).
after all you might be correct
correct me if i was wrong

It's quite the opposite...
Beginning with Windows Vista, the operating system supports only a computer with an ACPI-compliant BIOS
Android however does not use APM or ACPI directly for power management. Android instead has its own Linux power extension (wakelock).
That's why Lenovo uses a basic BIOS on those devices..

Fastboot is a Kernel feature introduced ages ago with 2.6.29 (2009) to allow asynchronous function calls (mainly to direct probe things like SCSI or libdata port scans). Nothing to do with the Bios.
Chuwi and some Chinese manufacturers use the special Insyde H20 Bios. Which the Yoga Book is not (by intention), the EEPROM is on a totally different basis.
@THE MAXIMUM POWER What is the best possible Android for playing around on the yoga book at the moment? I know, many things dont work for now, but if i want to try, would blissrom be the best way for now?

Hey Man !
I'm not sure if you're still following this; but, I thought maybe I'd better ask if you're still keen on development of this as I'm a kernel dev and have very recently migrated to this lovely new tab. So , I thought maybe if you're still into this, maybe we could gather a team to work on I'd be happy to help with the kernel part as far as my experience beside the medical school allows me to :laugh:
Kind Regards
