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!

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.

I would be VERY happy if you could dig up that GUB file and put it someplace where it could be downloaded.

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
Hi hoping for some help.
I have an old Compaq v2000, low specs 1.5g ram, running windows 7 32bit and vista dual boot.
Trying to dual boot remix beta, have followed all the instructions a couple of times now, can get it to work fine on my desktop.
So I use the installation exe and install onto the hard drive and reboot, dual boot options come up and I click on remix os and it loads for the first time, read write speed as around 32mb/second ,slow but it should be enough. It goes through the first time install stage and then goes to boot into remix but is just a blank screen with a cursor at the top left corner, and just stays like that. Keys don't do anything. Any ideas?
reboot and press ESC key to go to main menu....press E
highlight the line that says kernel, press E.
go to the end of the line by pressing END key...press spacebar and type DEBUG=1
Press Enter......Press B to boot. Look at the verbose output on your screen and report at what point you get stuck.
btw....why on earth are you using windows vista??? XD
Ok thanks for replying.
I have done what you said comes up with this:
"[ 1.321221] failed to find cpu0 device node
+ exec
+ exec
...could not find a valid V7 on sda
could not find a valid V7 on sda1
could not find a valid V7 on sda2
couldnt mount as ext3 due to feature incompatibilities found at /dev/sda2"
then typed exit to continue boot and said "couldnt probe module"
Using vista as its faster that 7 on this old thing.

Which one did u install...32bit or 64bit? Since your system is old, It might not support 64 bit.
And which graphics are you using....onboard or PCIe card?

I installed the 32 bit version and im using inbuilt graphics.
I have had linux mint running on here and also other android x86 roms working.
hmmm...so it just stays at "couldn't probe module"??
i never got that error before....so dunno how to exactly deal with that.
maybe search/google will turn up something...

Have searched google and it seems to be a graphics problem, looks like its not supported at the moment, could be that Remix cannot locate the driver?
On a android x86 rom i installed on here the wifi had the same issue and that was managed to be fixed using a few commands that i found on google.
The VGA graphics adapter is RADEON Xpress 200G Series.
Hopefully it gets fixed in a later update.

Try booting with nomodeset vga=791 flag....
If it boots up, it means your gpu is not supported.
How do I connect to internet? I am using Remix through USB on Dell OptiPlex 780. My internet connects through a username and password which I have tried through the third option but did not work for me.
WiFi adapter not identifying by remix os
remix os is not recognising my WiFi adapter I tryed both Alfa and beta version but it is not recognised by bot of the versions. some one pls help me out of this problem.

Hey tried what you suggested and nothing.
I am able to go in and change the screen resolution but still only get a blank screen in DEBUG mode but still no actual display. Im guessing that its just not supported.
Video
I can see videos on the ROM but when i install Google Play Services, i can't see videos, any solution?
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.

Been using it from USB for weeks now I'll try the Linux USB tool, would be amazing to get this running on the hdd. Does you're touchpad work??
Edit: just read it does work but hasn't for me, been needing my wireless mouse

Is it possible to boot a linux live usb and install remix os on the ssd with Gnome disks?
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. If I install the GalliumOS kernel on Debian it works fine, but no idea how I would do that with Android. Your touchpad really just worked huh? Not for me, not in the version of RemixOS I downloaded from the Jide site last night, nor in the hacked edition or whatever it's called here on XDA.

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
Recently, I just installed Remix OS on my USB and it worked fine. Because of my USB port are bit unstable, I just trying to install Remix OS on my HDD (hd0,7). But, when trying to boot from Windows Boot Loader. It shows "minimal BASH-like command - - -" , i found a solution for this and bring me to the Remix Mode Options (Resident/Guest). I tried to boot Remix from any options but it only shows and stop at blinking kernel messages and error message
"intel_powerclamp: Intel powerclamp does not run on family 28 model 43
intel_rapl : driver does not support cpu family 28 model 43"
When booting from USB, it doesn't matter and it can continue booting to Remix, but it won't continue boot when ran from HDD from my HP 14 Notebook PC.
I have alternative by using my Ubuntu's Grub legacy and succesfully boot. but, it won't save any settings.
Please help me to resolve my problem.
Here's my Laptop Specifications:
CPU: AMD-A8 6410 2.0GHz
GPU: Onboard
RAM: 2GB, 1.71GB usable
Boot Mode: Legacy, Secure boot: OFF
Installed OSes: Windows 7, Windows 10, Ubuntu, Remix OS(unbootable).

It seems you're booting into guest mode since nothing is being saved. How do you boot into Remix OS? I have an HP laptop too and press F9 as the laptop boots which then allows me to boot using the EFI file. That's the only way I can boot into it as the dual-boot screen doesn't appear automatically. You have quite a bit of software installed for a machine with only 2GB of RAM in total but I don't think that's your problem. Have you installed it onto a separate partition or installed it into the Windows drive in a folder? I made a new partition of 32GB, gave it a random letter for the drive, and it boots fine to that as long as I press F9 immediately on boot (repeatedly) until the boot loader menu comes up and I choose the EFI file to boot from, and eventually after that using grub.
All HP machines have the same F9 function key which will pull up the boot menu. Try that and see if you have the option to boot from EFI or EFIx64 depending on your system. I don't know why it's not saving anything from your sessions unless it is a lack of RAM/virtual memory space. I wasn't even aware there was a guest mode if you installed to hdd (so maybe there isn't). You could try to produce a logcat of what is happening as you boot and especially as you shut down to find out why it's not holding anything from your sessions in memory. I have 8GB of RAM in my laptop but as far as I know Remix OS only gets to use a fraction of that (about 2GB) so if you're only using a 2GB RAM in total laptop with several OS already installed on it you were bound to hit problems sooner or later as you add more, but whether that's related to your current problem I wouldn't know.
Well, I guess it was my fault because of using Linux-created Partition more than using Windows one. Maybe I'll try using windows-created partition, Thanks for your reply.
EDIT: It doesn't work, I tried to install it on 9 Laptops with 7 Models for 5 Manufactures (My friends are Remix Anthusiast you know) and only 2 Models have same problem with me. My Conclusion is that my Laptop model aren't supported yet to boot RemixOS from HDD.
