So I've downloaded and tried Wyse PocketCloud and AndroidVNC. Both will connect to my laptop (Ubuntu 10.04). Problem is, if I hit a button, open a menu, etc, it will show on my computer, but the "desktop," on the phone never updates. This is over wifi from my internal network, so I can't justify more than a second or two of lag.
Anyone else had this problem, or know of a fix?
Running a Samsung Vibrant, rooted, with Bionix V
I know this is a dead thread but I have the exact same problem. AndroidVNC worked perfectly when connecting to Windows 7 but I am trying the same device with Ubuntu and the screen just doesn't update.
Even disconnecting and reconnecting gives the same out-of-date screen. I suspect it to be an Ubuntu problem.
Hello,
I know this has nothing to do with mobiles but the people here are probably the best people to answer this.
I partitioned my HDD so i could install Linux (to build ICS) and it went all fine, it boots fine and Ubuntu runs fine. However when i boot into Windows 7, it all runs fine but the mouse is very jumpy. By that i mean that i can move the mouse from one side of the screen to the other and it suddenly stops and then jumps across screen. The CPU is fine (Have an Quad core i7 so its not a slow PC issue) but it makes me think that the HDD has corrupted or something. I have tried full defrag, and also the windows sector fixing and file processing etc. Does anyone have any ideas?
I've been messing with the new ASUS T100 Transformer T100TA and found a few boot key combinations through trial and error. I hope someone else can make use of them.
Hold the listed key while powering on the tablet.
ESC: Boot device selection menu
DEL: Boot into BIOS Setup (same as F2)
F2: Boot into BIOS Setup
F9: Boot into windows recovery mode
F12: Not sure what this is, it briefly flashes "Launching FFU.efi" then print "Main Start" and sits there
Vol Down: Boot Device Selection Menu
I tried each button on the top row of the keyboard plus: tab, alt, ctrl,fn, windows. In case anyone want to try other stuff.
blank..
not sure why but im drawing a blank here.
I cant get any bios options regardless of holding escape or f2 or delete while powering up my t100
cant figure out why?
And a question - does the bios look like any other or is it just like the "additional options page" you get when booting into recovery options, kinda like a win8 boot screen with efi option or restore etc.
i assumed i would see a proper bios but i just cant seem to get any key to do a thing - it just boots normally, i do have the latest 220 bios.
Thanks.

With F2 you should see a normal bios screen.
My guess is that you are doing a shutdown from in win 8, then turning on with the F2 key pressed.
Try doing a restart from in Win 8 and start holding F2 as soon as the screen goes blank.
By default win8 has "fast boot" enabled, which means it doesn't do a proper boot from bios when you turn of after a "shutdown" from in win8
Hope that helps.

Very useful. Thanks for those.
Holding Vol Up with power can help when it doesn't want to boot too IIRC.
Solving problem
Faced with the same problem after regular Windows 8.1 update.
Really thanks for advise given above.
To finally solve the problem just reset bios settings to default.
T100 Windows 10 Evaluation
In my zeal to explore the capabilities of my new T100TAF, I tried to install the Windows 10 Evaluation 10041. It kind of installed OK at first but now I have no WiFi and it will not allow me to do anything as the screen flashes and never settles down. I have tried to boot into retsore and reset it but I get errors. Any ideas?
boot from USB Asus t100ta
Hi everyone
A few days ago I was trying to install the preview of windows 10 on my Asus t100ta but looks like that system wasn't compatible with some software of the PC and I wanted to do the factory reset by pressing F9, when it was trying to restore I got a message saying "winload.efi is missing" then I tried to boot with a USB but doesn't work, I tried disabling the security boot. And nothing works. If someone please can help I have 4 days trying with none results :crying:
That is because the Asus T100 Tablet has an android based Windows 8/8.1 installed. I know that somewhere I had found information on downloading the Android based Windows as well as creating an installation USB of the Android based Windows. The Asus T100TA I have came with the x86 (32-bit) but, has an x64 based architecture allowing for the Android Windows x64 (64-bit) to be installed. To add, the tablet can have Android Apps installed in it as well. Think of it as a big Android phone (of course, you can't make calls unless you have something like Skype LOL!). I hope this helps.
UEFI allows 32 bit O.S's ONLY.

android or not, this is windows 8.1, it is NOT possible to (at this writing) to install a 64 bit based O.S. on this t100ta. while it does contain the architecture, the killer is the UEFI which is only 32 bit capable.
On my Asus Transformer T100 Chi, I have found that Volume Up plus power key boots you into the recovery menu. This also works on Lenovo tablets.
BTW, I have never heard of "Android based Windows". That seems like an oxymoron to me

Agrred, Android based windows, like wut. One is made by google and the other by microsoft. Not to mention all C++, c# and DOS code is directly incompatible with arm (what andorid uses). I mean yes some android phones are 64 bit and stuff but thats arm64 NOT the AMD64 standard that desktops and laptops use. The 32 bit x86 standard that laptops use is called i386 and was developed by intel. amd64 was developed by amd then purchased by intel who license amd to still use it. This is exactly why only Intel and AMD make desktop and laptop processors.
Companies like snapdragon simply take ARM chip designs and change them into their own processor, but its still an ARM based processor.
Two entirely different architectures, one designed for low power, standby , small screens and apps, the other for MAJOR general purpose use.
Take my word on this, the two will never merge
It's a true that ARM chip is an essentially simplified AMD CPU chip developed for portable devices such as smart phones, tablets etc. where performance requirements aren't so high and lower power consumption is important. I also understand, that apps and executable or install files for Windows PC are not compatibile for Windows ARM platform because of insufficient capability.
But how is possible, that ASUS T100TA with (supposedly) "ARM" CPU chip is seamlessly able to run with full featured Windows 10 PRO (for PC)... ?

ARM is essentially not a simplified AMD cpu, other than both starting with the letter 'A' the similarity stops. One is CISC architecture the other is RISC. There's no single intersection between the two, AMD has not been involved with the development of the architecture.
The ASUS T100 uses an Intel atom cpu. which is an 64 bit x86 core from Intel. (but since the T100 only has a 32bit UEFI, it's impossible to run a 64bit OS).
The T100 is not a PC, since it's using SDIO for internal communication instead of PCIE, making it more a tablet than a PC, this is why it's a bother getting linux to work on the device, since SDIO support is rather experimental and immature.
Windows 10 (and 8) is suited to run on x86 cpu's with SDIO connecting everything else.
Android on the other hand is running a modified Linux kernel making it having to do exactly nothing with windows, and the other way around.
Windows 10 is able to run on the arm architecture btw, look at the surface rt with the tegra, and there should also be a port able to run on the raspberry pi.
(Addressing a few incorrect statements found in this thread.)
The T100TA is not Android based. It will accept a Windows 10 32 bit upgrade. Don't try and boot from Windows 10 media. Run 8.1 and run the setup.exe program to start the upgrade. I upgraded my 32 GB system to 10 without problems.
It will run a 64 bit OS, but requires bootia32.efi putting in the \EFI\boot folder. There are various versions of bootia32.efi, some of which do not work.
i have asus t100ta ang i change my hardisk ang i want to install windows 10 can some help

were you able to instal windows 10 64bit on T100-TAF successfully ?
because when I try to install it says my CPU does not support 64 bit although when I checked on intel website its 64bit CPU but I guess the EFI for boot loader is only 32 bit !
can you explain how I can install 64bit on mine ?
Thank you!
I was trying to boot my ASUS T101HA from a USB disk, but all I found said to press F2 for the BIOS, which didn't work (probably because secure boot). Windows 10 64-bit was not starting up, so I could not start the restore from there.
Nobody said I could use the Esc key to choose the boot disk, but it worked!
ASUS T100 TA (Recovery or Reset) F9/Power
If anyone is interested... For ASUS Transformer T100 TA Win 10: While holding down F9 key, Press & Hold down the Power key until "Wait a minute" shows up: This Boots into Windows recovery mode with options to completely Reset to factory or Refresh. Do not need Password. I had forgotten mine & so had my daughter on hers...or more likely it's a flaw in the system or crap update...I do see a lot of requests on line looking for ways to reset the password on this "Laplet", & F9/Power was the only method that worked on both. In 20 years of using computers; I had never forgotten my passwords or had she. I spent hours searching for a work-around, hence the reason for me posting this here to help out anyone else.

Thanks for sharing! The volume down + power also works with Surface Pro 4 tablet.
Thank you, Hold power and volume up then go to Enter BIOS, then disable the Boot Priority, and re-install your windows 10 again, if you want.
Hey XDA,
I recently bought a cheap Android TV Stick, a MK908 to be precise. I did't pay much for it, because the previous owner said it didn't work well. Indeed it doesn't really function like it should (sometimes boots regularly, sometimes shows glitches and just reboots), so I decided to flash another firmware to see what that does.
However, it doesn't seem to work. I obviously have read how to flash, so to connect the stick with the OTG-port, press the button and connect it to pc while the button is pressed. But windows tells me it found a new usb-device, and not even a second later it tells me the device is disconnected. I am using windows 8.1 in a virtual machine on a macbook through vmware fusion. OS X (10.9) is completely up to date, windows too. I have told vmware to always connect the tv-stick to the virtual machine, not to the mac.
Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this? Below is an image of the internals of the stick.

Hi guys. Help greatly appreciated.
I bought a Cenovo MiniPC from Gearbest 2 months ago and from day 1 I've been getting blue screen errors. I immediately reported this to Gearbest and as you can imagine with the time difference between here (Sweden) and there (China) I was getting slow responses. Cut a long story short they 1st offered me a $20 refund from a $90 device, I accepted at the time as the errors have not appeared for over a week and thought it could be the end of it. 2 weeks after this the errors came back and it wasn't just blue screen on startup but it would freeze up during a session. I again reported this demanding for a full refund and they refused. I opened a dispute with PayPal and after a while they offered me a further $20 which I refused, they then sent me an email and said if I close the dispute they will give me a full refund. I was hesitant whether this was a scam but I went along with it and to their word I got a refund 3 days later.
After I got my refund I thought I may as well try and fix it myself now so I started in BIOS and fiddled with some switches for the emmc, one was 'secure erase', I don't know what was going through my head or what I thought the outcome would be but I enabled it and restarted. Now it just boots into BIOS and I am guessing the reason is that the emmc is now blank.
So ive now got a minipc with a blank emmc, I have loaded a bootable copy of Windows 10 setup to a usb and forced a usb boot in the bios but nothing happens.
I have opened the case to look for a emmc card I can take out and put in my laptop to reformat with an os but I couldn't find anything, there was a metal grill on one side that looks like it is hiding stuff and it is impossible to lift the grill off.
There is a tf card reader on the side so i am thinking that I can extract a Android image onto the card and boot from the card but I am not sure how and whether it will work.
Can i get some assistance in this please.

Hello, I've got same problem, 0xc000025 error code, arrived my tentative to upgrade the PC to Windows 10 (the PC arrived with 8.1 installed)
No way to boot my USB in the bios. Have you solved? Someone can help?
try and format the usb stick to 4k sectors before using the win10 media creator, think that's how i did it
Thank you for replying and sorry for the late response.
Have you got the same mini pc?
How do you format stick into 4k sectors? What format did you use (Fat32,NTFS...)?
fat32, in windows format dialog box its "allocation unit size" set to 4096
to boot from usb the stick has to be recognised as bootable before u can run the bios command to override boot device
yep i figured it out thanks. ive now got another problem and this is totally my fault if it cant be fixed...
in bios i unchecked the option to use integrated graphics so now when i boot i see nothing

intesting, daft thing to do tho, u could try borrow a usb gfx card?
Does anybody know how to reset the bios, because I've disabled the usb ( stupid x 10000 ) and I cannot use the usb ports (mouse and keyboard)
same problem here... I've disabled xhci support and no USB right now. The problem is that removing the battery does not make the bios to default.
I've still got the issue with no picture. I need to reset the bios but not sure how. Or maybe I can connect it to my laptop and get it working from there
yo. just got myself a cenovo mini pc 2, and it runs windows 10, but it's not legit. That bothers me, so I want to run android or linux. You guys mention that it's running a BIOS, but i think perhaps the mini pc 2 is running non-BIOS/EFI, because there's no preboot screen, and USB drives don't boot up at all.
Hi !
Did anyone got a chance at installing another os ?
I have a Cenovo mini pc 2 and I had troubles with sound. I had no issue for a week or two and then (maybe windows update, who knows) the sound would switch to the speakers output instead of the hdmi one. (it was plugged on my tv) so I decided (stupidly) to uninstall the audio components with the hope that windows would redetect and reinstall them with better drivers. Well, that didn't work and now in my device manager are two unknown components which don't work and I have no sound at all. If anyone found the global drivers for the device, or could make me a screenshot of their devices panel...
In the meantime I would probably try my luck to install openelec or kodibuntu on it but I couldn't manage to boot on bios. Did anyone tried using the Advanced startup option of windows 10 ?

I still have the problem with no graphics.
I know the problem as I disabled the onboard graphics in bios... I know **** head move.
I have tried to remove the lead leading from the bios to the motherboard in hopes it will reset it but nothing.
Is there anything I can do from USB do you think? Such as flash a new bios.

I have a Cenovo Mini PC 2 with 2GB/32GB. BIOS/EFI/set-up is accessed via pressing F2 after boot. Sometimes it will accept the F2 request, sometimes not. Not sure if this is an issue related to the keypress timing after boot being critical, or the unit being generally fussy (maybe selection of which of the 4 + 1 USB sockets for keyboard is critical?). Only wandered around the BIOS settings a few times but there was all manner of Android-specific options available.
Strangely, when the F2 key is accepted, a message is flashed briefly on the screen saying "Esc key pressed" or similar, as if the "Esc" key was the BIOS access key.
The NexBox T11 InsydeH20 UEFI / BIOS / set-up options are near identical to the Cenovo Mini PC 2. There is a video walkthough of the Netbox T11 Setup Utility although it does not mention the very first screen and options seen when F2 is pressed. The Cenovo Mini PC 2 very first screen titled "First Page" can be viewed at

I initially had issues attempting USB boot of Macrium Reflect with my Cenovo Mini PC 2. Eventually solved by one or more amendments of changing brand of USB stick, using Rufus to generate the bootable USB stick via formatting to FAT32 with 4096 bytes cluster size, and disabling fast UEFI in settings. USB stick was inserted into the Mini PC 2 and UEFI / BIOS was accessed by pressing F2 immediately after boot. From the first setting screen, "Boot Manager" was selected and the USB device was visible and able to be highlighted to boot from.
Hi,
Can someone please share the wireless drivers for the minipc2?
I did a fresh windows 10 install and can seem to enable wifi and device manager the wireless adapter shows an yellow triangle.
I've tried with SomeoneYouNeverKnow drivers but it didn't solve this issue...
Thank you

Graphics drivers for cenovo pc mini 1
I Had all the issues which is in this thread so i took the steps as follows it came with windows 10 dual booting android when i looked on the partitions it was a joke several all using up space i entered bios disabled secure emmc created a windows 8.1 32 bit usb boot disk using rufus selecting gpt also fat 32 16k sectors , it worked once i entered install i delete those partitions all of them until i had a single 32 gig partition which i installed a clean windows 8.1 leaving me 20 gigs after install now the problem i have like a idiot i forgot to take a note of the device id vendor etc of the display which does not even appear in the basic adaptor tree in device manager ,, i have tried several drivers but none worked the website who made this device needs a good slap, no drivers no support but a nice device with much potential and why lock the bios to 32bit? what is wrong with these people in the mean time
if anyone has the drivers for this device please share them i would be grateful and if needed i can make a guide on how to turn this little device in to a full windows computer its locked on windows 8 in the bios and most settings in the bios is locked to but i have obtained bios editor tools for this american trends i will give it a try later once i have full gpu control the rest i do not care as it will be used with bluetooth but intel hd drivers or the device if would be appreciated
Kind Regards
