Can you please write a short guide how u made it? I have the C720P and wanting to install it, but fail to install grub however i do it, got custom bios with uefi support too
//Bultiz
I don't really recommend doing it because it still has a few bugs like app crashing and such but if you have a spare chromzbook here is the tutorial which also is in the video description of the video
Step 1 installing custom core boot by coolstar
Warning: this BIOS is only for the Acer C720, C720P, HP Chromebook 14, Toshiba CB-30, and Dell Chromebook 11.
Please remove the write protect screw before flashing the UEFI.
Please check your CPU before flashing the UEFI.
Easy Flashing Script:
cd ~; curl -L -O https://coolstar.org/chromebook/setup-firmware.sh; sudo bash setup-firmware.sh
Select the “Install/Update custom coreboot firmware” option.

Bluetooth is working randomly sometimes it connects perfect and most of the times it fails to turn bluetooth on.
It's installed directly on my ssd am not using Live usb anymore
Yeah I've installed to ssd now also, but when I used live usb Bluetooth was working perfectly..?
I've found a real random thing, reboot to live usb, toggle Bluetooth off/on/off, reboot to ssd install, Bluetooth works again.. This method worked every time for me today, whilst only doing reboot never fix the problem..

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
Enio
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

Probably is a hardware compatibility issue. For example: I can boot Remix, without any problems, on my wife Acer laptop (Intel machine), but cannot on my Toshiba UFO (AMD machine). I try all possible methods for booting and installing, but without succses (editing GRUB kernel line with various parameters, resident - guest, installing on hdd on fat32, ext4 3 2, ntfs, installing as a copy/paste than adding entry to my GRUB, installing via Remix's installer than adding entry to my GRUB,...) I always got endless bootloop, just as you. Remix is alpha yet.

Yeah I know that, my previous post was little sarcastic because of many people equals PC with Windows PC. I think a computer which runing Linux, is PC also. In that case you should to add Remix OS custom entry in /etc/grub.d/40_custom, because os-prober don't recognize Remix, Android x86 and similar. Sorry cause off topic :highfive:

Hi, I just tried, hope it might help me with my stupid mixed arch 32bit uefi/64bit system laptop. the install process went well, on the partition of the internal drive i reserved for remix os, (D or gpt4, win is on C, gpt3) i see the files (data, initrd, kernel, ramdisk, RemixOS.boot, system, TRANS.TBL) but my computer still directly boot into winwin when i restart it... any idea? where are the efi files? especially the bootia32.efi, because i need to validate it from the uefi setup to let it boot . thanks
It seems like a big work from you, if i manage to make my remix install boot, i'll donate for your work. but right now it doesn't
to give you more info, i managed to make it boot from hdd on a fat32 partition, i had to ass the bootia32.efi file from efi/boot of remix os install to my trusted list, put that but file on the top bootable file and disabling secure boot. it started, but with fat32 i had only 4gb data.
what's missing to your installer that make my remix install not boot up?
where are the EFI, isolinux and .android_secure folders?
power up you laptop
at the first boot screen hit F12 or whatever your laptop boot menu key
you will see RemixOS boot menu

Ok i found my mistake. I had to take the 64bit remix os. Up until now i have tried with the 32 bit version. I realized that editing the grub conf.
All works well as on usb stick. You can add that on acer switch you have to access efi setup and add the remix32.efi file to the trusted list then put it at the top of the boot list then disable secure boot.

Works on a tablet Asus Vivotab 8 (M80TA)
Great work and thank y!
The Vivotab is another 64bit CPU device in a 32efi env.. Created at 1st another volume next to Win10, give it disk letter to d:, let run the installer. Finally added keyboard, to be able to switch between Win and Remix. First run of RemOS needs some min. WIFI, on-screen keyboard and touch works fine, but NOT autorotate screen, GPS or the other sensors.
Best regards to Austria
Nic
PS: Maybe y can change this installer that it is possible to install any Linux Distro on a 32bit UEFI machine, there is a big lack of 32bit UEFi compatible Linux.
I'm glad to hear that
Doesn`t work anymore
Unfortunately after several successful boots to RemOS, I am stuck now on grub menu with the messages
Code:
error: no such device: /Remix-OS/RemixOS.boot.
error: file `/Remix-OS/kernel' not found.
...
No chance anymore to boot into RemOS or Windows or BIOS! The connected keyboard via USB isnt recognized, so no chance to use cursor down to select Win-Partition or hit F2 to go into BIOS.
Maybe you add in grub menu loading additional driver that helps at least to support the touchscreen because the Vivotab is a tablet w/o keyb. And as additional fallback switch autom. to 2nd menu item in case 1st item isnt working.
Could be my fault, because I was able to switch into BIOS all the time, before(!) I (assume) enabled Fast-Boot

Currently not, it seems to be not possible to load BIOS first. I think it is caused by missing driver controlling the keyboard.

I assume no chance, that could be a bug in Beta, I had the same situation with the Asus Vivotab. Also in case Win was started it seems that its normally oriented in portrait mode on such a tablet.
WIFI and attached keyboard were recognized in my RemixOS session but none of the sensors, that one is needed for screen rotation.

Thats fine, I was using mostly a wireless keyb from Logitech, that was always working fine in BIOS and boot menu of RemixOS etc.
My ASUS seems to be now in a endless boot loop (see my posting #12 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65793962&postcount=12 ) without any chance to go into BIOS or selecting the WIN entry in grub menu. The keyb isnt recognized anymore, maybe through FAST-Boot enabling afterwards as RemixOS was installed and running.
Also through a passiv or active USB hub with wired or wireless keyboard or a mouse isnt recognized in system anymore.

Thats not the issue the problem is there are 2 os in a hard drive windows in c: and remix os in v: so the bio detects the hard drive but not able to boot in any os
your boot configuration is messed up. easy way to fix it is to tell windows to make a new one or the hard way is to find the file manual edit it.

you are in the remix mini area not remix pc.
but anyway what version of windows you was using and with what you shrinked your partition?
is is a uefi or bios computer?
it look like you ****ed up the uefi boot or the partition table.
you could make a cd/usb key of your windows and use it to restore your boot.

you are in the remix mini area not remix pc.
but anyway what version of windows you was using and with what you shrinked your partition?
is is a uefi or bios computer?
it look like you ****ed up the uefi boot or the partition table.
you could make a cd/usb key of your windows and use it to restore your boot.

Try the following steps:
Step 1, Boot the device and press F11 for System Recovery (this is not the same for every device, check your device manual for your System Recovery button) / or use a Windows 10 Install USB
Step 2, Under System Recovery/Repair, select Advanced Options
Step 3, Under Advanced Options, choose Command Prompt
Step 4, When you are at the Command Prompt run these commands:
Code:
bootrec /fixMBR
bootrec /fixBoot
bootrec /rebuildBCD

He hasn't told us what his system/bios is based on, so I assumed it would be a legacy device.
Your linked guide will work, but this guide allows you to select if you want every Windows installation (or just one) added to the boot configuration.

Congratulations! Have fun!
You can install a clean copy of windows in your Yoga Book using the ISO from Microsoft and these drivers.
You will need a USB OTG cable and a USB hub to connect a keyboard, a mouse and a USB drive to your Yoga Book.
You will need three USB drives. One for creating a rcovery drive (16GB), one for windows Installation (8GB), and one to hold the drivers.
- Make a recovery pen drive before you modify anything. This will allow you to restore the device to its factory state, in case you need to return it or are not happy with the results of your modifications:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/instantanswers/3a747883-b706-43a5-a286-9e98f886d490/create-a-recovery-drive
Keep this drive safe and use it if you want to restore your Yoga Book to a Factory state.
- Download a copy of windows and make a USB bootable drive:
https://www.microsoft.com/es-es/software-download/windows10ISO
- Download the drivers and put all the files in a pen Drive. These drivers are from september 2016, posted by UweThelen63 at the Lenovo Forums, looks they deleted the post, here is a copy I made:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxTLcy78OveNUW1KVk9iN3lBS2s/view?usp=sharing
To install windows, put in the USB with the ISO, boot the Yoga with VOLUME UP + POWER button, choose boot manager and select USB UEFI.
Follow the windows 10 installation to the end, you'll get a couple of black screens, just wait. The display will be rotated, use the USB mouse to navigate.
When windows is installed, use the Drivers USB, extract everything and start an Administrator command line ("windows key" + "X", "m"). Go to the folder where you extracted the drivers and run "startmodule" for each driver. Start with the Intel Cherry trail drivers.
I haven't installed the LenovoShutDownHelper yet. I don't know what it does.
You'll have to go into the display settings and rotate it to 270º when the Intel graphics drivers are installed.
For me, everything works except the haptic feedback for the keyboard. If you find ahow to make it work, please, let me know.
I don't know how to install the Dolby programs. Any idea?
thats all great but how do we install it if we have the android version of the yoga book?
Need unlocked bootloader.

We need unlocked bootloader, however, I think its not developed yet.
Anyway,when bootloader unlocked, android users can install windows because of dproldan's contribution!
I'm going mad because of android's humble multitasking interface! I really really hope Nougat releases ASAP!

Sorry. I don't know... I tried to unlock but, at that time, I recognized there is no custom rom or bios and I can't build that. So I gave up to trying...
I believe some hero will lead us...T^T
First, let me thank you for those drivers... I can't believe Lenovo is removing the drivers from their support site and forums. Mind-boggling.

I'd like to know how to install the Dolby programs as well.
That said, to enable the haptic feedback you have to either fix the startmodule.cmd in the immersion vibrator driver folder or manually install it. The .cmd file doesn't set the paths right for the files it needs to copy.
To manually install it:
copy to %windir%\system32 :
Code:
touchsense.dll
touchsensed.exe
(maybe vcruntime140.dll... on my windows 10 it already existed)
then make the folder touchsensed (still in system32, so after it will be %windir%\system32\touchsensed)
copy to this new folder %windir%\system32\touchsensed :
Code:
license.param
tuning.param
then open an admin command prompt and do:
Code:
sc create TSSvc binpath= %windir%\system32\touchsensed.exe start= auto DisplayName= "TouchSense Service"
sc start TSSvc
sc failure TSSvc reset= 0 actions= restart/1000/restart/1000/restart/1000
After that, reboot... and on next boot you should have haptic feedback.
thank you. I reinstalled everything again and did that. Haptic is working now.
Dolby also installed by itself. Probably has something to do with the order of installation. i did the cherry trail drivers first and then the rest, with a few reboots between them.
How did you get the product key or did you have to get a new one?
In my case, Windows activated itself if I connected to WiFi just after the language selection display. I guess the key is stored in the BIOS/UEFI/Mother board.
I don't have a Microsoft account.

I heard win 10's activation is related to M/B.(Maybe from win 8's tablet edition?)

Just loaded a fresh install of Win 10 and it activated on its own. Thanks for the info.
Has anyone got the Automatic System update to work? On Lenovo's website I click 'Start Scan' -> Install the Lenovo Support Bridge -> Then it starts to scan but never gets past 0%
can anyone explain how to install windows 10 on an android version of Yoga book?
who has the ROM of Android version within Google service ? Plz send me one, thank you so much !
hello all...
i have a trouble to clean install my windows yoga book (YB1-91F). Basically i have done all the preparation, driver, windows on usb. Even i make sure i've created bootable usb flashdrive. But everytime i go to boot menu there are no UEFI usb option, there are only greyed boot EFI and boot windows option. i have try to load from advance startup option inside the windows, but in the end it only show "the system doesn't have boot to EFI". so it kind of stuck for me. Even if i choose reset my pc, it always says there are trouble reseting my pc, no change were made.
i want to reset my yoga book, because i've been infected by some malware, and i think my internal storage and windows registry is somewhat junked.
Ups, sorry... i've solved the problem. Eventually I use MBR for the bootable flashdisk where it shoud GPT format... now, i'm clean installing my yoga book. Crossing finger, hope all goin well.

you should start command prompt as an administrator.
- click start
- type cmd
- right click cmd, select run as administrator
- continue to each driver folder
- run startmodule.cmd

you should type command completely with the extension... it's should be "startmodule.cmd" inside each folder of the driver
When I installed Windows 10 again, Windows Update did most of the hard work with installing drivers. So as long as you can get an internet connection by installing the wireless drivers (try using the Device Manager > Search for drivers on this PC) you should be good.
