Cube i7 Remix needs another OS. Since neither Cube nor Jide seems to be interested in supporting this device, its time for us to unite to solve this problem. I will reply to this post with my several attempts.
Wish us luck,
Bradley Norris
Cube i7 Remix - Ubuntu
I created a bootable 'live' USB using Ubuntu 16.04.
Power up with it plugged into the OTG. My unit defaulted to booting from the USB. You may have to interrupt the boot cycle by pressing Escape to change the boot order.
1. It booted very quickly and used native resolution of 1920x1080.
2. Surprisingly fast, especially considering that I am operating off a USB.
3. No wifi. No touchscreen.
In theory, you can follow a procedure here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2265190) to get wifi working, but I believe that is for the i7 with the Core M rather than the i7 remix.
The speed of Ubuntu, combined with native x86 applications and the new Unity touch interface would be a great combo. Does anyone know how to make this work? Topfreitas?
Cube i7 Remix - Windows
I created a Windows 10 install USB using Microsoft's own tool MediaCreationTool.exe (www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10).
Booting starts, but ends prematurely with a BIOS error.
I wonder if we could install from one of Cube's own devices. For example, the Cube i6 dual boot runs Windows on the same Baytrail (Intel Atom Z3735) chipset. In addition, they have an i10 and an iWork 11 that also use this chipset. (http://www.cube-tablet.com/download/) These downloads timeout before completion. Anyone else successfully download?
Teclast also makes model that is suspiciously familiar (probably built off of the same older Intel reference design): X16HD. Perhaps their version of Windows would work.
Cube i7 Remix - XJUbunTAB
Again in theory, this XJUbunTAB distribution was created with Baytrail tablets like our Cube i7 Remix in mind.
Here is the intro:
https://xjesus.net/xjubuntu/xjubunt...izable-distro-based-on-xubuntu-14-04-64-bits/
Here are the files:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/xjubuntu/files/
Again, I created a bootable USB and like Ubuntu, it boots quickly and runs wicked fast, but...
No wifi, even when I run their utility to fire it up: "Start WiFi RTL8723bs"
No touch.
Cube i7 Remix - Android-x86
Android-x86 is now up to 6.0!
http://www.android-x86.org/
Same as the other experiments, I created a bootable USB and tried it out:
Touchscreen not working (USB Mouse instead).
Wifi sees networks and allowed me to sign into one.
Screen resolution defaulted to 1024x768, so it looked large and fuzzy.
“Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped.” Repeatedly.
Signed into my google account, and then froze on “Just a sec…”
Hard reboot, this time Wifi doesn’t work.
Any thoughts?
Cube i7 Remix - Remix OS for PC Hacked
One last attempt... Remix OS for PC Hacked presented here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/remix/remix-os/remix-os-pc-hacked-edition-ota-v2-0-201-t3345968
Well, boot, screen resolution, and wifi seemed to work fine in "Guest Mode", but on first run of an app, crash boom.
Hi Folks!
You can try use a version of Ubuntu developed for Intel 3735F. Burn a pendrive with it and run from OTG, you'll have wifi working out of the box, but after trying a lot, I gave up on trying fix touchscreen or sound...
In theory for this kind of device, you need to upgrade to linux kernel 4.3 to get touch working but you'll lost wifi. (I didn't tried that).
Hope it helps

Topfreitas - What did you try to get touchscreen/sound working?
From reading other forums, it as least sounds technically possible to get the Broadcom wifi working.
I don't know where to begin getting touchscreen or sound drivers.

To get Wifi working is pretty easy if you try the ubuntu version developed by Morrison. To get touch working try to update the linux kernel to 4.3. Someone said that you can get touch working but you'll loose Wifi... Who knows I wish I knew more about linux and this kind of stuff.
Hi, was just wondering if you had any luck?

You can try the ISOs from linuxiumcomau.blogspot.com.
Everything seems work out of box, except the touch screen. (Touch screen is "ft5x0x_ts".)
(touch not okay, screen resolution correct, sound okay, wifi okay, bluetooth okay, battery stats okay)
Even the old iwork8 with CPU z3735d works nearly perfectly, with the touch screen working. (wifi okay, sound okay, bluetooth not okay)
Thanks for the reply, but I have now sold it..
Ubuntu Success
So I pulled this Cube i7 Remix out of the back of a cabinet and thought I should either make use of it or throw it away. Well, since I last attempted this, Linuxium has done considerable work developing specialized versions of linux for our ancient Atom-based processors and unique (read fussy) Broadcom radios.
I downloaded one of his prepackaged ISOs for Atom processors and was able to boot from a live USB. I installed, but the first attempt would not boot. I installed over the first installation and was then able to boot. It looks great and wifi works well, but I haven't gone much further than that yet. I am running 18.04.2 LTS. I used the default partitioning which resulted in:
512MB fat32 EFI System Partition /boot/efi
28.6GB ext4 root partition: /
HD Videos seem to play smoothly, but no audio yet. Linuxium has a fix, so I'll be working on the ALSA UCM audio drivers.
No touchscreen, but won't likely be able to fix that.

So I've been playing around with my SL101, and finally got a version of ubuntu working (kindof) enough to do some playing and whatnot.
Currently using the TF101 image from lilstevie (unzipped to /sdcard/ubuntu.img ) and ubuntu-mountloop.zip from here (which I flash from recovery because i can't apx mode because of SBK's not found for my device).
I'm just running into a few issues:
Onboard keyboard not recognized (any release) (on boot it looks for a dock and doesn't find one, but the SL101 technically doesn't have one)
Intermittent stalling inside ubuntu
Touch isn't what I wish it would be like (no swipe, no longpress for menu, etc)
WiFi only works in one version I've tested: lilstevie's
We need development on the SL101, or at least some kind of guide helping semi-advanced users inject the needed modules/drivers to load things specific to the SL101! (onboard keyboad, remove secondary battery indicator, etc)
I'd really love to get all the kinks out and have a stable ubuntu dualboot (be it, pseudo dualboot, still none the less)
Now, I was asking around a couple of days ago in #android and #android-root on freenode, and found out, for "ubuntu for phones" (which we should see a version hit for the galaxy nexus near the end of this month) they're actually using android drivers, so I'm wondering if anyone's played with this at all, i.e. loading ubuntu with android's drivers and having everything work out of the box...
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/01/02/canonical_announces_ubuntu_for_phones/ said:
Because it uses the same device drivers as Android, Ubuntu for phones will be able to run on a wide variety of hardware, ranging from entry-level devices with single-core processors to advanced "superphones" based on multi-core ARM and Intel chips.

Hello!!
I have an OnePlus One, rooted and with lattest kernel, and android 5.0
what i wat to do is :
Install linux preferably Debian, but any distro is ok.
Native would be the best option so it can acces and use all the hardware.
Or via Linux deply using frambuffer.
I have read a lot, and what i can understand is that with framebuffer i can acces all the hardwarare, like mouse usb keyboard BT sound etc directly. Via vnc if i use an usb mouse y get the mouse pointer and separatly another pointer that is the one in vnc and it lags after the mouse.
I have installed debian in my oneplus one smartphone with Linux Deploy. And with vnc is rather slugish. Via XServer SDL it runs more smooth. But i have read that framebuffer is the fastest way in terms of performance. i have even read that framebuffer will get 3d acceleration and stuff. but i could be wrong.
But everytie i try to run via framebuffer i get a black screen and nothing happens. i have click the option of stop the Android giu.
But then i have to restart the phone to come out of the black screen. and if i have Android running i still get the black screen but i can snap out of it.
I want to use this tablet as my working unit. But i need to have a working linx distro that runs well enough to do all my daily work on it.
I have spend 3 weeks to try to get it to work. and read a lot and so on on my own, but now i need help.
Has anyone sucessfully run linux in OnePlus One?
Any help about how to acomplish this will be really appreciatet.
I thinks this will help a lot of people that want to have a tablet and be able to tun linux and do their everyday work on it.
specially if you travel a lot.
I have write a post very much like this regarding Onda tablet v989. Because it has another hardware. If I can get any of them to work it would be a bliz.
thanks everyone in advance.
I think the first step is to get frame buffer to work , afterwards the rest shoud be easy. I've tried compiling a kernel with fb support , but I have not had any success yet, i'm not even sure whether my device will supports it (Alcatel 918D android 2.3.5) .Building this phones kernel has been a nightmare , but finally I got it to run my own, now i have to figure out how to get Fb on this phone.

i have installed debian sed with the linux deply app. and framebuffer. i get of course black screen, but before when i dropped out of the black screen i see the terminal with different errors.
Bot now i see that framebuffer start ...ok no errors. i even try to run glxgears and i got the terminal telling me is running at about 100 fps. like its running in some monitor that is off.
I try this with my acer pc conected to the tv the tv was off and it was running about 100 fps, when i turn on the tv i saw the gears ans the speed wentdown to normal 60 fps.
So i conclude that in my Oneplus One is also running in some screen. but i get black screen.
Does this help you in any way whatsoever?
i hope we can get frammebuffer to work.
By the way running it trough the framebuffer....wil it go faster than the Xserver SDL?
It seems you‘ve had luck with setting up framebuffer console on your phone, now all you need is a library to enable window applications to access it.
Also you may post some screen shots.
Am on phone ATM, but will give you some hints tommorow.

Hi Devs!
I'm wondering why not more people here working to get android lollipop working on our beloved tablets
I started to read a little bit into the topic and found quick easy solutions on the web to get ordenary android-x86 images boot very well.
Draco wrote an How-To that is easy and works also perfect with the Surface-Pro
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/D85Jq02cLrE
I modified the UEFI files to work better with a out of the box intallation of the Surface and put it together with Android 5.0.2 test builds.
Collect everything I've uploaded in a Folder:
https://drive.google.com/folderview...V3VU0wYV9MY2VVVkY2eGJPT0EyTkQ4WnM&usp=sharing

How-To
Here to download a Testbuild for Android 5.0.2 from Google Groups from rgb
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-x86/3xClAbl5D_w
Info:
If an microSD card is inserted the boot process will fail, because the microSD replaces the SSD to be the hd0 device.
Solution: change the grub.cfg entry from hd0 to hd1 and also do the mod in the loopback cfg
[EDIT]: sinc latest UEFI Firmware update, booting from microSD isn't working anymore
gapps can be used from any place, just copy the contens of the .zip file to there correct places.
atm I use a small gapps package from paranoidandroid (PA)
http://d-h.st/o72
WiFi: (not required any more on available builds)
I compiled a build on my Ubuntu intallation and extract the files for you, hope copy the files works also on the downloadable iso.
Please give me feedback if the files are working for you.
usb8797_uapsta.bin replaced in /lib/firmware/mrvl/
mrvl folder replaced in /lib/modules/3.10.58-android-x86+/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
Touch/Type Cover 2: (not required any more on available builds)
hid folder replaced in /lib/modules/3.10.58-android-x86+/kernel/drivers/

Hi,
I'm very interested in this!
Could u pls post a tutorial of installing OSX on surface pro 3 ?
I have only installed Max OS 10.9 in VMware, but it's not smooth verywell.
Does WiFi work well within your OSX install ed on the Disk ?
Hi!
For OSX Yosemite go to
http://www.insanelymac.com
I'm on the SP2 and WIFi only per external USB Stick sorry
I hope similar tho the SP2 kex Files for SP3 are available
For me OSX with the use of touchscreens is not very comfortable.
Is like Win7 to small buttons
Also at Android I only get WIFI working via external USB Stick atm.

Thanks a lot, I'll try it.. someday..
Solution for gapps found by the guys from google groups.
Use a EXT4 Partition on the USB-Drive/SSD to get gapps working like a charm.

Surface Pro 3
I can verify that this does not work on the Surface Pro 3. The touchscreen doesn't work, the type cover doesn't work and the pen doesn't work, so I can't even choose my language on the first screen.

I'm sorry for that, if you have time, can you also test a available Android 4.4.4 installation if olso there touchscreen is not working?
I correct the title and update the OP that everyone sees that on SP3 ther are more problems.
Touchscreen is working on SP2 but Type Cover 2 did not so I also need an external USB keyboard for analysing things in console (ALT+F1)

Haha, I understand you, but I have to mention that I'm a noob.
As far as I understand, creating/porting the drivers/firmware/kernel modules for the surface rt will be much more difficult than starting from an existing project like android-x86.
At the moment I split my SSD into more partitiones, installed the third OS (Ubuntu 14.10), get the complete code from git repository and try to set up the build environment to learn more about things are working together.
Also on Ubuntu the WIFI (USB version of MARVELL 88W8797) wont work out of the box but after replacing the firmware from git.marvell.com I get it up working.
Unfortunately this is not working on Android that easy.
The kernel modul for WIFI is loaded (mwifiex.ko) but no additional network interface is showing (mlan0 should be created)

Haha, so glad I found this thread. First things first, is your avatar a paragliding or skydiving canopy? If so, end cells look fantastic and very nice acrobatics with your leg straight up...how did you manage that?
I spent all evening and well into the morning finally getting 4.4-r2 running successfully on my SP2 using Draco's guide. Very nice work there from him.
It's unbelievable how smooth the Android experience is natively. When people recommend the emulators they just don't understand until they experience it themselves.
I have the Type Cover 1, and it's fully functional, but bluetooth and WiFi do not work. I have an Edimax EW-7811Un which does work, but the internet speeds are unusable; it maxes out at .25 Mbps. Is there something I need to do or is there another WiFi dongle which works better? Which one do you use?
Do you know of any combo WiFi/BT dongles that work?
If I can solve the WiFi issue (don't really care about having a small dongle plugged in for android), I will be one happy camper.
One more question: I read the 4.4-r1 had some drivers or something that 4.4-r2 didn't. However, I couldn't get it to boot from USB (it would hang on the android screen). With that said, I just replaced the files within the 4.4-r2 files with the 4.4-r1 on the USB. Do I have to rebuild the thumb drive or can I just replace files?
I will try the Lollipop build later. Good to find someone else doing this! Too bad we're both newbs lol.

Thats a paragliding canopy, and what you can see is the basic you have to manage when you want to fly acrobatic style.
Its a full stall where the canopy is not flying forward any more an the pilot is falling backwards untill the body stabilized under the backflying canopy
At the moment I use a USB2.0 HUB to connect the USB-Drive and the WLAN Stick at the same time. because after the last firmware Upgrade of my SP2 the Tablet do not boot any more from the microSD card. ?!?
The WLAN Stick is a original Samsung WIS12ABGNX for my Samsung TV/BD Player I used to test what can be done with them.
on Win8.1 I got a Speed of approx. 8-9MByte/sec (internal Marvell Wifi)
on Android 5.0.2 I got 4-5MByte/sec (external Samsung Wifi)
on Sony Xperia Z2 5.0.2 (unofficial) I got 2-3MByte/sec (internal ... Wifi)
when copy a file between my NAS (100MBit Network LAN structure)
so there is room for improvement, but first I really like to get more familiar with building Android from source by my self and try to get the internal Wifi working.
Also on Ubuntu 14.10 WiFi is working but not very stable but it does. (with including the firmware from git.marvell.com)

I'd rather get a small nano USB WiFi dongle and "set it and forget it." I don't want to have to carry around the SP2 and my phone with a USB cable just to use the internet.

Ya, the image was blurry, I was pretty sure that was a paragliding wing. I was a competitive high-performance canopy pilot (swooper) but have been out of the sport for a number of years. Some of the canopies now have radically different designs and the different wings between skydiving/paragliding/etc are merging now to make some cool stuff. Made a few paragliding flights, but never got into it.

You were able to boot android directly from a microSD and keep the SSD untouched (didn't even think of that)? Did the upgrade affect the partitions at all? Maybe the set root=(hd0,gpt#) and root=/dev/sda# changed, but I'm sure you already looked at that.

Ok, I just want to make sure we're on the same page here. So on Android you were getting 5 MBps (40 Mbps)? That's super fast, unless you meant 5 Mbits, which is still faster than what I'm getting. Right now, I'm getting 0.25 Mbps (0.03125 MBps) which is unusable. I have another WiFi dongle arriving today, so maybe that will help. If it doesn't, why am I getting such slow speeds?

Hi!
I did a 2nd x-check
Defenetly can receiver a 260MB file Form my NAS with ~3,2 Megabyte (~2min) per second and transmit the same file with ~4,5 Megabyte per second back to my NAS with the external Samsung USB WiFi stick
I would say its also possible to installiert Android to the microSD on a EXT4 partition and boot it via Grub.
Yes its all about the (hd0,gpt2) and /dev/sda2 or similar.
Just try it and if the numbers are not correct Boot into Grub and adapt the setting by pressing "e" and thest the setting with "F10"
Well I just tried the TP-Link TL-WN725N and it did not work at all.
Tried within 4.4-r1 that's installed to SP2's SSD and Lollipop booting from USB. WiFi just hangs at turning on and doesn't recognize the dongle.
Why am I getting such slow speeds on the other dongle? And do you know of any specific nano WiFi dongles that work well for this application? I tried searching on Google and in the Android-x86 group but came up empty.
I just want WiFi!!!! :crying:
Hi sorry for my english,there is a guide for install android on surface pro 1 ?
I think is same of surface pro 2, thanks.......
Cheatman put together a great tool for running Android and Ubuntu off a memory stick on an Asus tablet. Should it work on any tablet, x86 or x64? I tried it on my HP Stream 7 (x64) and was actually able to bring up Android, but then it would eventually freeze up after a few minutes or less. There were a couple of ominous error messages as soon as the bootup started, including an ioremap error (see attached screenshot). I got my Stream 7 as a gift, but would much rather have Android running on it than the Windows 8.1 it came with.

I tried version 1.5 and got all the way to Android running on the tablet, but it still freezes randomly and I can't download any apps. Too bad, because it looks great otherwise.
Yep, same thing.
Tried also directly the new Android x86 4.4 R3, but same issue
I assume the freeze on boot after grub is according to 32/64bit.
Regarding Android-IA Kitkat is 64bit Kernel with 32/64bit userspace.
Therefore Kernelpanic on 32bit Atom.
Hello. I need help installing Bliss-OS on my surface LAPTOP. Think of me as a complete noob, even though i ma not, just so we don't misunderstand how much the other knows, vice versa. You guys are amazing and i just want to dual-boot android x86 on my laptop.
Oh, sorry my problem is that when i boot it it works surprisingly well, i go into the OS then like remix OS, android x86, phoenix os, Ubuntu the keyboard doesn't work and i have to attach an external keyboard.

Hello. I need help installing Bliss-OS on my surface LAPTOP. Think of me as a complete noob, even though i ma not, just so we don't misunderstand how much the other knows, vice versa. You guys are amazing and i just want to dual-boot android x86 on my laptop.
Oh, sorry my problem is that when i boot it it works surprisingly well, i go into the OS then like remix OS, android x86, phoenix os, Ubuntu the keyboard doesn't work and i have to attach an external keyboard.

That's quite the odd issue. Have you asked this in the Bliss OS (x86) thread? https://forum.xda-developers.com/bliss-roms/bliss-roms-development/x86-bliss-x86-pc-s-t3534657
Any Luck?

I have the same issue on my Surface Laptop 2. Every install I try, no matter what it is, I have no keyboard. I am able to plug in a USB keyboard, but as you said, that really doesn't work for me.
Did you find any solutions?? I have no clue what to do. SUCKS not having a keyboard and I'm loving BlissOS.

Unfortunately no, keyboard doesn't work on BlissOS yet.
I asked the developer and he said he would be implementing drivers to make it work
I did get ubuntu to work - You might want to check this out:

I run the linux-surface kernel w/ Ubuntu on my SL3, and it runs great. I’m having issues getting Bliss OS to even boot off the usb; assuming I get it on, is there a way to install the linux-surface kernel in Bliss or would I break everything? It’s been a while since I’ve messed with Android so sorry in advance! (Also with the SL3; the Keyboard, mouse, and touchscreen do not work right off the bat with any linux distro/flavour afaik until you install the linux-surface kernel)
Yes, the easiest way to install the Linux surface modules for android is via gearlock using the gxp files available from gearlock forums. Install both the surface kernel module and the daemon from gearlock recovery menu during android boot up not from within android terminal. Touch screen may not work from every boot has been my only issue.
you can use gearlocks windows advanced android installer to install android and include gearlock from windows as well or install gearlock to most flavours of android x86 after the osnhas been installed.
you are also better off placing any gxp files into the dedicated gearlock folder as thats easily visible to gearlock during recovery
