Doesnt work because of AMD GPU, probably even an AMD CPU? AMD it not supported by Android-x86 which is the base system os RemixOS.
Try again with Intel. Should work.

Endless Boot Loop - Booting from USB

I'm trying to boot Remix OS Legacy version on a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop, from a San Disk 16GB USB 3.0 drive. I've downloaded and burned the Remix OS to the USB twice but all I get is a Boot Loop.
The PC starts booting and I get the option to boot in Resident Mode or Guest Mode. Doesn't matter which I choose, it gets to the point in the screen shot below and the PC simply reboots over and over.
I've checked the BIOS and can't find anywhere to disable secure boot or anything like that. Any help or ideas Thanks!

When your pc starts, keep pressing F2 key. You will enter the BIOS menu. Go to the boot tab, select "Legacy Boot" mode and disable "Secure Boot". Change the boot structure from HDD to FDD. Press F10 to save and reboot. Done.

Ah, but you didn't say search harder. You just reiterated what I'd already been doing.
I guess that old PC isn't gonna run Remix.

My nine year old ****ty laptop has legacy boot, dude, how is it possible you dont have it. If not, get an update from the motherboard's official website.
For example, some acer laptops did not have legacy boot mode, so, they released an update to it on their official website. Maybe, your manufacture did it too.

Do you really think that all the brands release updates for their bios?
Most of them don't! The one for my motherboard ends at 24/11/2010....

Well, thats potato. No remix for you.
Well, how about dual booting? YOu can always try my grub2 method. I have posted it in the forum.

Well don't look anymore for secure boot because Inspirons don't have/support it.(Under system information mine says unsupported) I don't have any ideas/recommendations for you other than to redownload and reburn to usb because on my Inspiron all I had to do was change the boot priority order in the boot menu and whenever the usb is plugged in I boot to it.
I think Remix is still in alpha stage. From other side, there is to many diferent hardware, and it is hard to support all of them. My experience: I have Toshiba Satellite L775D AMD quad core wit AMD Radeon 6520G hd and 6GB RAM. I am very familiar with instalation of OSs on hdd, I have 4 Linux distros, 1 Android x86 and 1 Windows 10 on same hard drive (multi boot, runing GRUB from Arch Linux), but I can't boot Remix. Also, I can not boot Android x86 Lollipop and Android x86 Marsmellow. I can boot Android x86 KitKat and have one installed on hdd. From other side, on my wife Acer Aspire, I can boot all of these stuffs.
Sory dude, but I think you simple have no luck with your hardware and Remix. Maybe things will be better in future for you (and for me).

Same with me still, with beta
Workaround for dell inspiron is to use PlopKexec boot manager. Don't know if it will work for HDD but I got USB 32bit version working on my Dell inspiron 1545 using it.
32bit works for me!
Got an old Dell GX620. 64bit gave endless loop symptoms. 32bit works like a charm! :good:
My Toshiba Sattelite C50d-a-13w can boot remix and android x86(_64) from 5.1 to 7.1 ...................
I realize that this is way overdue, however Dell laptops back then did not support secure boot, and while they did support both UEFI, you could not enable or disable either, you just had to manually specify each time you boot from USB what you wish to boot (and Dells use F12 for manual boot).
As to whether RemixOS boots or not, that is down to the specific hardware and OS version.
I have an Intel DH55HC motherboard, and Remix OS booted on it without issues, until the last versions, where it would keep failing to boot.

Do remix os work with a i3

I just got a pc part by part but i didnt have much money so i got a i3 processor i was trying to install in on my pc but did work i was getting a error
Try this
You need USB with Remix OS (from step 1 and 2) install it using there .exe on Windows
Start from step 4

That isn't an error. I had that with my i5. It is just the system setting up. Reboot and it should be good to go.

Nvidia ION 2 Optimus Issues

hi,
i installed the latest remix os for my Netbook which is an ASUS Eee PC 1215n equiped whith an Intel ATOM D525 CPU and an NVIDIA OPTIMUS ION 2 (GT218),but nothing is working and the boot freezes on "Detecting Android-X86".
So i think that the Optimus technology is not yet implemented in this last release!!!!
Is there any chance for a Remix OS version that supports my netbook please??
I am running Remix OS on my Asus Eee PC 1015pn, which is working quite well. However, I need to boot first into Windows and use the Asus Graphics Switch tool to active the optimus mode. Then I can reboot into Remix OS.
Best, maris

hi
on the asus 1215n, the optimus technology is already running automatically in windows 7, and asus doesn't provide the graphic switch tool for this device, however i tried to download it and install it from the asus 1015pn support web page but it did'nt work on my device...

Riddle Me This People: Remix OS installation vs other Android distro

Ok, so here's the run down. I can install/run off a USB Phoenix OS and the Android X86 versions off any of my computers at home. But Remix OS will hang forever on the "Remix OS" splash screen. Since Phoenix and Remix are variants of Android x86, what could be the differentiating factor?

Try the 32 bit version... Had this and it worked for me.

Yes, I tried this too. Unfortunately, no dice.
@K387 it's probably the GPU handling. Remix OS handles GPU drivers differently from the rest Android-x86 forks.
Try adding: "androidboot.swrast=1" or "EXTMOD=radeon" or "EXTMOD=nouveau" to grub kernel line. Do NOT mix these together.
You didn't mention the basic info needed in troubleshooting this kind of problems - device model, CPU model, method of installation, install to USB/HDD?
RemixOS main system are "seamlessly" different from other Android-x86, Remix has different drivers which some have incompatibility with some hardwares (and it was the one which preventing me from booting via my Laptop's HDD).
If you can stuck on bootloop at 64bit version, that means that you are ran RemixOS on right hardware but it have incompatibility with drivers and your hardware. After all, if you ran 64bit on 32bit Processor, you will just end up at "Minimal BASH-like command... " or it wont boot up anyway.

Amd Ryzen info !!! You can't do anything with this platform.

Just wanted to post some info about Amd Ryzen based laptop.
It seems that you can't Unlock, Flash, use adb or fastboot command on this platform.
It has to be intel based computer.
Yesterday i tried to unlock bootloader and flash custom rom.
None of this worked on my Lenovo AMD Ryzen Laptop.
I used my wife's old MacBook pro with Windows running in virtual maschine.
Trying to unlock with official Xiomi Unlock tool won't work. Nothing happens, no error message no nothing.
The same thing is if you try to flash TWRP with fastboot flash recovery twrp.img, it simply waits, nothing happens.
It's a problem with USB drivers. Use any simple USB hub and it will work [emoji4]
Enviado desde mi MI 8 mediante Tapatalk
I have a first gen. Ryzen desktop and it's working without any issue.I unlocked my bootloader,flashed twrp,and adb/fastboot works like a charm on other mobile devices too.
Yup, can confirm 2nd gen Ryzen doesn't work without an USB Hub, it's pretty annoying but atleast we can get those for cheap anyway

It's not your AMD, its an issue caused by buggy Windows 10.
I have a brand new Intel Core i9, and the antivirus stops/ partially deletes every ADB tool that I attempt to use, even with antivirus and signature enforcement disabled.
I end up using my Macbook or the old PC for matters that involve ADB.

It's definitly not the antivirus or anything like that since the same app/folder for ADB/Fastboot works perfectly fine with the phone connected to the USB Hub and not directly to the MB. Don't know anyone with a Ryzen 2 or 3 that has managed to get Fastboot to work without an USB Hub
I'm using AMD Ryzen 2600 and everything is working fine.

Same here...I think its non-sense it is not based on the Ryzen Architecture...possibly OS or Manufacturer FAULT. (Chipset Driver etc.)

Thanks for that info, I had read about people using usb hubs and had intended on coming back to edit what I wrote previously. However, i was not certain.
I am glad that you provided a definitive answer that will help this whole community. Cheers.
Eidt: It is interesting however, that I experienced a similar issue with my brand new computer and yet was able to use the old computer. Now the old computer has been updated with the latest Windows update and it too now has the same issue. However, using a hub indeed works. weird.
I have the same problem with my 3500u laptop. But ryzen desktop 3700x works fine.
i am having the same issue.. i have ryzen 3600x on b450 flashing with mi flash tool or twrp flash or anything didnt work for me.. tried minimal adb,qualcomm driver, google driver. didnt work but as i installed minimal adb in my laptop i fastboot and flashed properly.. something is wrong with amd or driver or chipset. any ways to get it to work.
I have a I have a ryzen 5 3600 and have no issues at all.
Yep same problem.
MSI B450 Gaming X and Ryzen 3600
Can't unlock or flash recovery.
Always used Intel computers. Recently got my friend a Ryzen 2600 with AMD4 mobo. Fresh Win 10 x64 install and we had a problem with USB WiFi - kept cycling power on / off / discoonecting / reconnecting. Was fine prior on Intel with Win 10. Found the issue and fix - Win 10 installs all default drivers nowadays for easy setup. Most USB controllers are Intel also. AMD boards most have AMD USB controllers. Fixed by installing AMD Chipset Drivers.
Using threadripper CPU, works fine just have to use usb 2 instead. Reverted to stock numerous times and managed to unbrick twice.

Hey, will this work for the ryzen 5 3550h as well? Or do I have to get a USB hub? I'm planning on going for a ryzen based laptop and this is one of the main issues I'm concerned about as I own several Xiaomi devices and would like mi flash/unlock tool to work on it.
