HI, I currently own a chromebook that I use for college, but I am in need of a full blown os like windows. I was thinking of using that rufus tool to flash windows bios on my acer chromebook 15 to get windows 10 then do the procedure with cloudready to be able to dual boot into chromium os. The reason I want to keep the chrome/chromium is because it is way faster for general work and only one of my classes require windows 10 so I would hate to have to suffer with windows 10 on it for the whole semester. Also, is 4gb ram enough for windows 10 to run smoothly?
Get rid of chrome OS, flash Linux and run Windows on virtual machine if you need it. I'm doing this way with my Toshiba Chromebook 2 and everything is working fine. Linux is almost as fast as chrome OS but muuuuuch more powerful as an operating systen

I have a Windows 7 64-bit Desktop with a 3.1 GHz AMD Athlon processor, and around 4GB of RAM. I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. I want to learn to build android from source, but the better step-by-step guides are for ubuntu. If I were to get ubuntu, I would want to boot from a USB flash drive. Would an 8GB USB flash drive be sufficient for setting up ubuntu, the android sdk, and building a rom? Can I use my PC's harddrive for storage while ubuntu is running from the USB? I have found that Ubuntu 10.04 is recommended for android development from source. The only problem is that there are so many different downloads and files with different file sizes no matter how much I search. If someone could answer my questions and post a link with the ubuntu image, and perhaps a guide on how to install it on my usb, I would be very joyous.

you could run ubuntu live off of a usb, but it would be painfully slow. Especially when you are doing cpu/ram intensive tasks like compiling.
Id recomend doing one of the folllowing things:
First/Better option: install ubuntu onto your computer in a dualboot with windows 7
-it will be faster because it will be installed on your computer rather than having to read from the usb
-also faster because all of your cpu and ram are being dedicated to ubuntu
-some people see the word dualbooting and immediately think that its too hard but it isnt. Watch this tutorial: Click here for tutorial
Second option: install ubuntu in a virtual machine within windows 7
-this will be slower because you need to share your computers hardware with windows 7 and ubuntu at the same time
-heres a tutorial on how to do this: Click here for tutorial
Also heres the download link for ubuntu 12.10 (the newest version 64 bit): http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso
Some people say that 10.04 is better, but i know lots of devs that use 12.10.
If you still want 10.04 here it is: http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.4-desktop-amd64.iso
Yup...true..you can run ubuntu live cd/pendrive but it will be really slow as said earlier.
So wat u do is to download that ubuntu image files.
Then you can use 'unetbootin' for making bootable pendrive.
And 8gb is enough(though 4 will also not be problem in anyway).
For easy installation partition your harddrive to make some 'unused' space(not free..delete the partition as ubuntu needs diffrent partition table,we don't need ntfs partition) for ubuntu.
Now install ubuntu with option 'install ubuntu alongside windows' and you are done with ubuntu part.
Now install android development kit and start working..all the best.

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.

There is no EasyBCD for Linux, and I have no Windows on my PC. OMG, maybe I have no PC, because in OP clearly said "we going to share this article to run Remix OS on your PC ". What is, for God, that strange Toshiba 17" thing in my home?? Probably is UFO

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.

Actual things needed.
1. Extracted .iso file
2. *Unix bootloader that runs on your device and can identify the extraction folder
3. Hope that at least your cpu/gpu are supported
Things like EasyBCD are ways of simplifying #2

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:

I know... I noticed your post was made in jest; figured I'd 'fix' OP and support your point at the same time.
Hello!
I have a tablet with UEFI 32bits (it's a Emdoor EM-i8080 with Intel® Atom™ Processor Z3735E) and I'm trying to install just RemixOS at the HDD, without Windows side by side.
The thing is, I tried many tutorials that I found here at XDA and nothing seems to work with my tablet. I understand that the process is the same as install the RemixOS in a VM, right?
I managed to format the HDD with GParted, install RemixOS with "INSTALL=1" but, after the install, it just doesn't boot. Then I tried another tutorial using a Linux USB Live, but the linux usb doesn't boot (tried with Ubuntu and Debian).
Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks! =D
Hi, I know this an old thread but if you have not fixed it yet then this might help. I got a similair tablet and got Linuxium 16.04 and 16.10 to boot on it, by using kernel parameter
nomodeset
then at least you can get to the desktop. I have only tried the 64bit and Gnome, Unity, Xubuntu, Kubuntu(don't use this one as it uses too much RAM).

I can't help you with the android as I have not yet got that to boot to desktop.
Hope this helps

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

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

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
