Windows 7?

It is possibly to install Windows 7 and dual boot in tablet with Honeycomb 3.1???
I saw that the tablet its selled with windows 7 and honeycomb, i want to use both, d u know a way to do that?
Thanks a lot and sorry about my english

Windows 7 = x86
Transformer= ARM
Cant do it. The one that dual booted used an x86 processor, I think.
When Windows 8 comes out, might be able to do that.

Thanks for the quick reply ^^

Another option, since dual booting won't work, is if you have a Win7 system already, you can just remote desktop into it. There are a few threads on here that have discussed the best RDP client to use.

You can get the Iconia W500 tablet... which runs on Windows 7 with x86 platform... then you can try dualbooting Android x86 on it... I know Android x86 run pretty decent on the Asus T91 tablet.

However, you can install Ubuntu on it (the ARM version of Ubuntu that is). But still its not straight forward dual booting, where you can restart to the other OS. Read more here : DEV Thread, HOWTO Thread.
The other alternative is to use a remote desktop client, Splashtop HD is a good client if you want very a fast frame rate (for watching videos n stuff).

[Completed] [Q] Intel IA and Android x86 integration

So I'm trying to get Android running on my Yoga 2 Pro (not the Yoga Tablet Pro 2 or whatever its called)
IM ASSUMING MANY EFI devices are having the same problems as well. Fill free to contribute
I was able to get Android IA dual booting very smooth with windows. However I have a few issues (I'm not a developer, I'm a noob, but probably have enough skills to contribute fruitfully to the conversation)
It works ...ok...As many of you know it doesn't have gapps, and I cannot figure out how to install gapps. it cant be installed like a traditional android device where one can flash it...
As of now, Display support works great. Both touch and hi resolution support
no sound
no bluetooth
accelerometer not working
Many apps don't work on intel ia as well....netflix, watchespn...etc
After fooling around with intel IA, I tried Android x86 instead...heres what I got from it.
Only could boot into Android from the live CD (my case thumb drive) when using VESA mode
graphic is not supported at high resolution (only in VESA mode)
gapps worked well with Android X86
Sound works
bluetooth (not tested)
I could not get Android x86 to install AT ALL...I can't figure out how to boot into android x86 using VESA on grub
So my question is this...How do I begin integrating the two if it is possible (I've read somewhere the kernals are different)..do I need to use Kitchen or can this be done by copying and pasting lib, and apks?.
I need the graphic support of Android IA
Sound support of Android X86
Working Gapps
whatever arm translator that seems to work in Android X86 as apps seem to work a little better
EFI support of Android IA
Any takers?
If anyone needs a tutorial on how to get intel IA working on Yoga 2 pro, I'll post one if needed

Hi,
Would be best to ask about this here,
Chef Central
I'm thinking the windows section would be best, but I'll leave that to you.
Good luck!

Android on Surface 3 (and others z8700 devices) sound solution

Good afternoon, I'll try to explain my doubts as simple as possible, this would solve the problem of many users with Atom processor Z8700 that can not have sound on their android device.
Phoenix OS works perfectly BUT NO SOUND
Prime OS works perfectly BUT NO SOUND
Android X86 works perfectly BUT NO SOUND
OpenTHOS works perfectly BUT NO SOUND
ok, but i have a nameless .iso build of Android x86 in which the SOUND WORKS PERFECTLY but many other things do not:silly:
the question is, how can I extract the sound drivers from this .iso and put it on any one of the androids where the sound does not work and so have a perfect android on my Surface 3 ?

Microphone not working and Unstable WiFi in Surface 3 -Android x86
First of all I would like to thank you for having posted this version of Android x86. In installed on my Surface 3 128gb and worked!!
I have a couple of issues and hope someone can provide assistance.
Micropone not working: the mic doesn't work with any app.
Wi-Fi disconnects: WiFi periodically disconnects and in order to make it connect again I have to enable the hotspot. The screen then turns rapidly off and on and the problem is (temporarily) solved.
Is there anything I can do to solve this issue?

Please I have a surface 3 with 64gb 2gb of Ram without type cover and i want to ask you if the installation of android x86 requires a keyboard ? also i want to know if the installation of android X86 will erase my win10 and if the roll back is possible ? thank you inadvance for your help

So I know this is a older post, but I too have a Surface 3 (just to confirm, not a surface PRO 3), I understand these are ARM based processors. Is it possible to install android on this device?
Thanks in advance

Just to be clear, the "Surface 3" referenced in this thread is the Atom-based Surface released in 2015 and is the only Surface device to charge via a Micro-USB port.
It's Intel Atom x7-Z8700 is a full 64-bit compatible x86 CPU.
Surface 3 - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
The original "Surface" (2012, later marketed as "Surface RT") and "Surface 2" (2013) are the older Surface devices that use the Nvidia Tegra ARM platform.
The Surface Pro X (SQ1: 2019; SQ2: 2020) is the current-gen Surface device that uses Microsoft-developed ARM SOCs.

Oh I think I have the Nvidia Tegra ARM version

Frustrating installation on X1 Tablet 3rd Gen

I've tried just about every build of Bliss OS , as well as many Android-x86 images, and cannot get anywhere with either booting the live OS or installing on my Lenovo X1 Tablet 3rd Gen. The basic specs on this tablet is 8th Gen Intel CPU with Intel 620 UHD graphics. I was told that Bliss OS should "just work" on this hardware, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I suppose part of the issue is the HiDPI touchscreen at a 3:2 aspect ratio and 3000x2000 resolution 3K IPS display. No matter what I try, I cannot get past the initial menu. I choose to boot Bliss OS live, the screen turns black, and I get a cursor (underline) in the upper left corner and nothing else.
The BIOS is setup for UEFI (as far as I know, there is no legacy option on this tablet).
Currently I have Manjaro Linux installed on the tablet, with a free partition formatted as EXT4 that I'm hoping to use to install Android. I've tried messing around in the grub settings trying options like 'nomodeset" and 'vga=ask' and others.
Has anyone managed to get Android up and running on the Lenovo X1 Tablet 3rd gen? I have this dream of a dual-boot Android and Linux device.
Thanks so much. Very grateful for any pointers.

Progress but still not quite there with my Lenovo X1 Tablet

Good day all. Hope this messages finds you safe and well in these challenging times.
I'm hoping to find some help a goal I have to have a single tablet PC that serves as both my daily driver PC running my OS of choice (Linux) and having the ability to dual-boot into Android for things like media consumption, reading books, etc.
I was fortunate to be gifted a Lenovo X1 Tablet 3rd Gen PC from a family member, and I'm truly enjoying it from the perspective of the form factor (it's similar to probably a Microsoft Surface tablet). Spec's can be found here:
[https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/tablet...es/ThinkPad-X1-Tablet-3rd-Gen/p/22TP2CP0113#)
But it's essentially an 8th Gen Core i7 with vPro, Intel 620UHD Graphics driving a 3:2 aspect ratio 3000x2000 native resolution touch screen with WACOM digitizer, 16GB RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD, etc.
I have tried just about every ISO that BlissOS offers (as well as other such as Android X86) and simply cannot get anywhere in the installation. Occasionally the boot process will get as far as displaying some of the boot sequence, and then he screen will go black and either have a flashing or solid cursor in the upper left corner. On the newer ISO's, I could get to the point where I can hear some audio. And in some cases, the screen will sort of flash lighter and then darker (like the backlight is getting brighter and then dimmer). But at no point did I ever see an Android desktop.
I tried to boot the ISO as a Qemu VM, and this does seem to work (as I can see the full boot sequence and get to a point where I'm looking at an Android desktop). Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to configure the VM for proper touch support. Ideally, I'd rather have Android running natively on the device.
I'm finding references to others who have tried this on the Lenovo X1 Tablets and had either moderate or no success. A no point could I find a guide or reference on what combination would allow BlissOS (or any Android X86 based solution) to boot and install on this hardware.
To anyone who could help me get BlissOS running and installed on this tablet, I'd be truly in your debt.
Thanks in advance.

Update:
After some more research and experimentation, I was successful in getting Bliss OS installed and running on the bare metal of my Lenovo X1 tablet 3rd gen. However, the install isn't ideal as I leveraged an install script from JAXPARROW on Github (https://github.com/jaxparrow07/Android-x86-Installer-Linux) to complete the install. While this allows me to install and boot BlossOS (and other Android X86 releases) on the tablet, it's installing into a folder of the existing Linux ext4 filesystem and using the existing grub to boot. Ideally, I'd want the Android install in its own partition and ultimately use something like Refind as the boot manager.
I've attached an image of the grub entry that the JAXPARROW scripted install creates. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out what his script is doing that allows me to boot and install Android X86 on this hardware that a native boot and install won't work (black screen with a non-blinking cursor).
If anyone has any thoughts or feedback, I'd be grateful. I'm excited by the prospect that at least now I know I can run Android X86 on this hardware. And BlissOS is an amazing desktop implementation of Android.

Hi @tech101, I am interested in buying a used thinkpad x1 tablet 3rd gen and planned to dual android or chrome os with windows.
Have you been able to successfully make android work?
this link https://github.com/jaxparrow07/Android-x86-Installer-Linux does not exist anymore.

Hello, I'm the developer of the mentioned project. I'm glad to see you're able to boot after installing via the installer. The installer has been updated recently with bug fixes and other distro support ( comes as a single executable instead of an installer ).

You can do that by mounting them beforehand via cli or by a FileManager and then choosing in the Installation Partition in the installer.
Mounting a partition e.g : In Dolphin, you can do that by right clicking a partition
​
Basic help such as finding your filesystem name ( sda5 etc.,. ) is available in the installer's help menu
Help menu ( Ctrl + H or Help > Help in the menu)

If you take a look at the line which has linux in it. It loads the kernel. With some parameters, it's possible to boot the android.
Bash:
linux /{name}/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive SRC=/{osname}/ noibrs noibpb nopti nospectre_v2 nospectre_v1 l1tf=off nospec_store_bypass_disable no_stf_barrier mds=off intel_pstate=disable mitigations=off
As explained by @Night(SG) in this commit. We removed the unnecessary ( in most cases ) kernel parameters ( ig which used to help you boot in this case ).
You can test the latest release and let us know if you're able to boot. If not, I'll add an option to enable the extra parameters while installing.

OP made a typo, here's the correct link :
https://github.com/jaxparrow07/Androidx86-Installer-Linux
( unnecessary "-" after Android caused this )
