As if to "hijack" Mac users from Apple, Google announced the launch of an early access program for their latest OS, Chrome OS Flex which is designed as a lightweight OS that runs for older laptops, PCs, or Macs, with a more modern minimalist UI.

Conceptually, Google wants older Mac users who can't run macOS Monterey to install Chrome OS Flex with the latest security and features.
That way, older Mac users don't have to run macOS, which is no longer supported by Apple in terms of feature updates and security systems.
Chrome OS Flex has the same look and feel as Chrome OS on Chromebook devices. That's because Chrome OS Flex is built on the same codebase and includes Google Assistant, Chrome browser, and Nearby Sharing.
FYI, ChromeOS Flex is Google purchased from developer Neverware in 2020 and is optimized for PC and Mac devices.
Users can download Chrome OS Flex early access for free on the official Chrome Enterprise website.
After downloading the Chrome OS Flex master and installer, the user must create a bootable Chrome OS Flex on the USB Drive.
Once everything is ready, users can install Chrome OS Flex on their PC or Mac to replace the previously used OS.
How about interested in trying Google's Chrome OS Flex??
I think very good
Google Play and Android apps: Chrome OS Flex does not support Android apps or Google Play.
Differences between ChromeOS Flex and ChromeOS - ChromeOS Flex Help
ChromeOS and ChromeOS Flex share underlying technology and management tools. When you install ChromeOS Flex on Windows, Mac, or Linux devices, you get most of the features and benefits of ChromeOS. Ho

JavaSCRIPT != JAVA - javascript is a very specific subset designed for doing just a bit of flow control textual / dialog programming on web sites. Java uses semi-compiled byte code to create full stand-alone applications.
technically, yes, android supports Java, in fact, at the core of android is linux, which handles all of the hardware input/output stuff, but then right on top of linux is Dalvik which is a Java byte code virtual machine designed by google to be nice and lightweight as well as supplying additional features for tablets and phones specifically (touch screen support and such). so yes, android by nature of being android, can run java. the trick is weather or not the application that you're trying to run from the web site uses code that is fully supported by Dalvik.
unless someone more knowledgable than I would care to chime in, I would strongly simply recommend either borrowing a friend's phone / tablet for a few minutes and just test out the application for yourself and see how well it runs for you, or visit your nearest cellular phone store and try one of the store demos in the same capacity.
Good luck!
Upon my visit to your link Amiga:
I guess that about says it all.
Pushing the ok button just gave me the same message.
I'm pretty sure that android cannot run normal java applets. The JVM used oly has a certain subset of java capabilities.
Not a mobile site either, I'd guess.
there a workaround to this?
Upon opening the site I chose install and it auto downloaded a file but it could not run on my note. The other option was a button that I couldn't activate. Thats where the Java would be needed.
Hello, it is me again, testing something interesting on my Ugoos AM6 device.
A Group of developers called F.K. Tech Team have been posted distributives for different Amlogic SoCs.
They have managed to run XFCE and KDE Linux builds on mentioned SoCs.
I have managed to run both of them, but for KDE I had some problems with WIFI, so XFCE is more interesting for me.
The basic process to start distributive is simple:
1. Download archive with needed build from the F.K. Tech Mirror
(I put the link for Ugoos but you can find other devices on their website)
2. Burn flash drive or EMMC flash to plug in your Amlogic device.
Here I usually use balenaEtcher app for Windows PC (can easily google it)
Interface is so simple, so you need just to choose unpacked archive from the folder you have been downloaded and choose USB drive to burn (or EMMC flash)
3. Plug in the flash drive and start your Amlogic device. Some devices start initially from your drive and some of them need to be pushed using recovery button (there is a hole in AM6's housing case for this button)
4. First run may take a time, then follow simple instructions on the screen and in the end you got your XFCE ready to rock!

However, it is common problem for such SoCs to appear here too, video acceleration has only software support. So if you would like to check 1080p videos in youtube it is better to run Android or Andrroid TV even for such powerful SoC as AMlogic S922.
Hope guys can Fix it soon. For now, particularly for Ugoos AM6 there is a bunch of Android , Android TV and DualBoot CoreElec Firmwares
If anyone would be willing to help me troubleshoot the cause of these Hypervisor Errors, I would be eternally grateful. I've never asked anyone to help with this kind of ****, so take it easy on me for not knowing the etiquette.
Anyways, I'm running Windows 11 Pro (Ghost Spectre) from a custom bootable with Partition Master and a bunch of tools to save the rig if the ship goes down, which it usually does not, but I keep trying to get this one back in the win column and failing. Basically, I can run/play anything with no issues, Windows Updates are fine, and I get to the point where I feel comfortable trying to install WSA again, even though after 9 or 10 attempts with fresh installs of Windows (Both legit isos from Insider and the custom), it always crashes the same way.
1. I activate SVM in the Bios (MSI 970a-G43 Plus)
2. I remove the very minimal overclock settings I run before saving and exiting bios en route to first boot with WSA installed
3. Windows hits the desktop, I move the mouse maybe an inch or two (sometimes it takes a second for the bad part)
4. The system is locked up like if you ran 500% disk and cpu it just doesn't register any actions
5. BSOD labeled Hypervisor Error
And the kicker for me is that even with Hypervisor Platform off, and Virutalization Platform on instead, I still get the same Hypervisor Error.
Please harass me for any information, I made cookies. Love you guys. Sorry for the format. XD
I have in addition to having Developer Mode enabled in Windows Settings also both the Virtual Machine Platform and the Windows Hypervisor Platform features enabled and rebooted computer afterwards. Resume: WSA perfectly works for me.

Gost Spectre isn't official Windows 11, it's a modded version of stock Windows 11. May be Gost Spectre has left off parts what Windows 11 by default has.
Root Windows 11 (Hard Mode)
THESE STEPS HAVE BEEN SIMPLIFIED FOR YOU~! FORGET THIS MESS, PLEASE CHECK OUT THE NEW WINDOWS 11 ISO I MODDED FOR ALL OF US https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/jrom-windows-10-and-11-lite-iso-plus-win11r00t-w-wsa-bundle.4392727/...

Hi everyone,
I am here to share with you my attempt at making an APK installer for Windows Subsystem for Android, WSA Sideloader. This has been an open source project I had been working on for over 2 months now, with the first version released around the same time as the WSA public preview.
Like the name suggests, it features a user friendly interface allowing anyone to easily sideload APK files onto the subsystem, without typing any commands. Since the launch of version 1.0 back in February, I have continued to update the app with new features and bug fixes. Recently I have launched version 1.2, which includes an updated look and feel, APK permission viewer and WSA autostart.
But my work is not over yet. .apk file association is coming soon, so you can double click to install from File Explorer. I also have plans to launch an ARM64 build of WSA Sideloader, for devices running the ARM version of Windows 11. A test ARM64 build is currently available for version 1.1.10.

This is my first big open source project, and I plan to support it for a long time to come. It is also available to download from the Microsoft Store!
GitHub: https://github.com/infinitepower18/WSA-Sideloader
Microsoft Store: https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9NMFSJB25QJR
Instructions, known issues and FAQs can all be found in the GitHub readme.
It would be greatly appreciated if you could try it out and leave feedback and any bug reports, so I can work on improving the program even further
Happy to announce that .apk file association is now available in version 1.3. The application now integrates with File Explorer, web browsers and other supported programs enabling (double) click to install functionality.
The update is now available to download from Microsoft Store as well as GitHub Releases.
Hi all,
On Android 13, Google enabled KVM support for Tensor Chips model(Pixel 6 / 6pro / 6a). So we can run a Virtual machine at full speed, but there is no APP to utilize this feature.
I modified the Limbo Emulator (QEMU), so it can enable the KVM on Pixel 6 Phones. Due to the limitation of the kernel, the APP needs ROOT permission to access the KVM service(/dev/kvm)
Currently, only VNC is working on this APP, and you can only boot directly using the Linux kernel. UEFI did not work on KVM.
Network functions worked, but you may need to set the DNS inside the Guest OS.
Arch Linux for arm64 runs pretty well on Limbo. It runs even faster than Raspi 4. You can download it from ArchLinuxARM-aarch64-latest.tar.gz
Other Linux can also run on the Limbo, but you may need to recompile the kernel to enable virto-related functions.

Limbo for Tensor is a QEMU-based Hypervisor for Tensor-based Google Pixel devices such as Pixel 6 & 7 series. - wasdwasd0105/limbo_tensor

You can install an apk package as a test package via adb (command adb install -t limbo~.apk). You can also use LADB to install (tested)
Simple installation of the apk is not possible due to the included test build in the application manifest
Awesome! This will come in handy.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to use the simulate secondary display dev option with a display link device or Chromecast?
A while back I discovered that the second screen will actually automatically tie to the (separate from main phone gui) mouse/ keyboard connected. The start menu of that virtual display opens apps in desktop resizeable mode.
It's just not practical to run a desktop as an overlay. If someone can figure out how to feed it to an external display we'd have a solid makeshift DeX with much more flexibility and potential.
Anyone managed to get a working internet connection on the guest?
Can you please tell us how to run windows arm using your latest update there are many trying to attempt this even by installing native qemu and all trying to create a different version of your app with more commands and also how to run other operating systems besides your provided one
