Ok good, I think it should be all good for you then.

GRUB Customizer will also help you rename and reorganize the boot entries.

Here is my configuration in GRUB Customizer, basically I only see Ubuntu and the Advanced folder on Ubuntu boot :

I added some informations about Ubuntu too at the end of the Android guide,

and some more details for the things to do / not do when you're using a SSD installed Ubuntu.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Yup, I allready used grub customizer to do some experiments.

Soooo, with a fresh install on EXT2 and with partition copying, Wifi seems to work properly, at least most of times, sometime it doesnt want to connect.

Bluetooth can be turned ON, but if I turn it on, I must reboot to trun it off, if I dont reboot it says "Desactivating" Bluetooth then it's ON again.

And strangely, language revert back to English, but not keyboard language or settings when I turn Android OFF then ON with PowerMenu

What model do you have exactly ?

I have XE700T1C-G01FR builded in Feb. 2014 ( I bought it 2 weeks ago )
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
WiFi yes, happens 10% of the time (fails, and takes a bit longer then), but it works fine normally.

Bluetooth, I never had the issue. And you'll find it funny, I have the issue right now. So yes.

We won't play with it then (On / Off / On / ... for the Bluetooth isn't a good idea anymore :) ).

Yes ! Good thing you talk about that, I'll add it to the guide.

Done. It's under "Important things about Android on the XE700T1C"

I have the XE700T1C-G01FR too, bought new on the 26th of October (2014),

have it since the 3rd or November, and it was built in March 2014.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Ok then, thanks for report, good to know that it's not my setup that makes weird things :)

I'll try to not play with bluetooth then :P

Thanks again ! Be sure I'll follow Android IA/Android x86 evolution. ( And this thread too )
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] salahmed:
OP updated... Link to your great guide added... Thanks
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
Thank you too ! ;)

Let's hope it will help some XE700T1C users

(and maybe other SSD devices because it should mostly be similar)

enjoy their ATIV with Android and / or Ubuntu as much as I do :D .
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] salahmed:
I will try to free some time and SSD free space to try your guide, right now I am running windows 8.1 and A-IA which I spent a lot of time in customizing it to what I like, but it is always fun to try new things. I tried Ubuntu but only run it from a thumb drive not a full installation.

Sent from my SM-N910C
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
For moving on from A-IA to Android-x86, you have to remove the thousand partitions it created :laugh: .

Very good point of Android-x86 is the single multimounted partition, so much cleaner..

You can easily use Titanium Backup on your A-IA to backup all your applications,

save the TitaniumBackup folder (USB stick, SSD partition that is accessible, ...),

and restore your needed applications when you're on Android-x86.

At first I had a really good and stable installation of Ubuntu 14.04 on a USB stick

(installed from USB to USB, works fine and boots fine for anyone who would ask),

and then decided to have a proper multiboot Windows / Ubuntu / Android with clean partitions on my SSD.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
And you can note that you can even put Android folder with linux to have more ( and shared ) space.

It will be on EXT4, but I dont think it's a real problem finally.

BTW, anyone tried Xposed on last Android ? Got bootloop after framework installation.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
Yeah can be done too, but I prefer having the OS on individual partitions,

if anything goes wrong, only one can be affected :).

I didn't try Xposed on Android-x86, last time I read about it, it wasn't compatible at all,

now even with the ARM support I wouldn't expect it to work.

And I won't try because I'm trying to live without Xposed xD,

used it a lot under CM11 and now with CM12 Lollipop I manage to do everything without Xposed :D.

Interesting thing on my UEFI files, you can add this on a new line after the timeout in grub.cfg,

the render is more adapted to the Samsung XE700T1C : set gfxmode=1920x1080

Same resolution can be used in GRUB Customizer for the best render.

Updating the zip with this.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
That's sad, Xposed is a really pretty tool.

It was working with 4.2.2 Android IA image ( 1st post for exemple ). And it is supposed to support x86 architecture.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] z750leovince:
big thanks Adrian DC, your tuto work fine, and thanks for your help
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
I'm copying my android folder to an android-test, adding a new boot option in my Ubuntu GRUB

(but can be done in the Android EFI too), and will boot on it to see how it goes.

Ok. Boot ok. Some cleaning because 2 Android makes my big 5GB space now small :) > (1GB free, should be fine now).

I clean it because I might keep it to test unstable things on like Xposed.

Yes, it doesn't work, bootloop and then black screen of death :D .

So as I remember, still no Xposed for us !

I might repair it by just crashing the system folder with the working one.

Done, works again, so you might fix yours with the system from your USB.

Remember to only use the cp command of my "Update" section, don't copy it with Nautilus.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Yup, dont worry, I managed to get it working back ;) That's a shame we cannot connect to PC to get logcat, I'm curious to see why it got stuck with Xposed.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
Adrian DC,

I've been trying for the last 3 days and can not get it working at all. Would you be willing to post a video on how to install? I'm currently running dual boot windows 8.1 and 4.2.2. I would really just like to update to 4.4.

Thanks for all considerations.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
4.2.2 was installed with android ia installer?

What is your problem exactly?

Tapatalké depuis mon OnePlus One MIUI !
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
No video sorry because it would mean restart everything from the beginning on my very stable Samsung ATIV

and I need the computer as it is, and as soon as I add one information in the guide the video becomes useless in a way...

Please give more details about where and why you have a problem.

Several users contacted me by PM and did the complete installation without any issue.

If you have 4.2.2, I suppose you had Android IA installed right ?

If so, please delete (when you saved your datas from Android IA on a USB stick or somewhere)

all the Android related small partitions (9 on mine if I remember correctly...,

and then you'll put the new Android partition from the USB drive there.

I also suppose your Android IA left enough free space when all its partitions are deleted,

otherwise adapt the sizes you want and need for it.

To give an idea, my fully installed Android takes around 2.40GB, will some heavy datas on the Android 'SDCard'.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
I have in the Android partition copied onto a partitioned 10GB fat32 harddrive of the main harddrive from USB.

How do I get it to install and stick?

I end up having to reinstall after every reboot.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
Please be more explicit, I do not fully understand what your did, and why you need to "reinstall after every reboot".

Are you talking about harddrives (HDD), USB flash drives or the internal (your "main" ?) SSD of the XE700T1C ?

Do you mean you use an external HDD instead of an USB drive ?

What and where did you exactly install ?
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
I have the XE700T1C-A04US model. This is what is did:

Per your instructions:

Prepared the installation with a 1GB USB: steps 1-5

Prepared the Ubuntu Live USB if you do not have one : steps 1-7

Prepared the SSD and USB destinations : At this point should the 3rd 4GB USB be used? What format partition should the partitioned SSD be ? I partitioned the SSD Harddrive and I also prepared USB Flashdrive both to Fat32

(Totaling SSD and 3 USB's prepared)

Prepared the BIOS Configuration : steps 1-8

*** Here starts the difficult (misunderstood) part-

Used Ubuntu to migrate Android to the SSD :

Started using Ubuntu : steps 1-5

Copied the Android partition from the USB drive to the SSD :

1. Launch the GParted application (or in Terminal, "gparted")

2. If you can't find it or it isn't installed, read this : http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/gparted

3. You can select the SSD or the USB drive in the top right selector

4. Right clic the "Android-USB" partition, if available "Unmount" it

5. Copy the "Android-USB" partition to the empty SSD space, resize if needed. Should the SSD patition format be? Ext2, Fat32? UnAllocated?

For that, right clic on the "Android-USB" partition, "Copy", right click on the empty space

from the SSD, "Paste", adapt and accept the Resizing Popup if needed

6. Apply the changes

7. Rename the partition "Android" (Right clic, "Label")

8. Apply the changes to the drive

9. Just look what number your "EFI" partition has (around 100MB, probably sda2)

10. Exit GParted when done

11. Unplug the Android USB drive

Prepare the Android SSD partition contents :

From this and beyond I get lost. (I have no idea what or how to access 'Nautilus'

I hope I'm confusing you. Thanks for all of your help and time assistance.

As far installing, i get the screen where there 3 options:

Install Live

De... mode

Android Installation
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] z750leovince:
1- for ssd format not allocated and android usb format to ext2

2-is partition unllocated for installed android in your ssd

3-and to open nautilus, its explorer
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
Sorry for the noob questioning but some terminology I'm not too familiar with.

Is nautilus opened thru the usual windows explorer, Ubuntu, or another program?
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
Point by point :

- No SSD partition to create, as you will later copy the one from the USB drive to the SSD.

- The SSD copied partition (from USB drive) will have the same system file, so ext-2.

- Nautilus is the file explorer from Ubuntu, as if you would use Windows Explorer on Windows.

You can quickly find applications by their name with the "Windows" keyboard key.

It will open the applications menu, and by typing nautilus you'll find it instantly.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
Prepare the Android SSD partition contents :

Launch the Nautilus application

On the left, open the newly created Android partition

Close Nautilus

Launch the Terminal application

Execute the "sudo nautilus" command (I'm stuck starting here)

On the left, open the Android partition

Rename the "android-X.X-rX" folder to "android"

Launch the GEdit application

Save an empty file named "android.id" in the Android partition's root

This file will help identifying the partition and simplify your life
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
You just have to launch the Terminal and enter the commands as indicated :
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
I’m getting the ‘Windows’ and ‘Android 4.4’ as boot options but it only boots Windows. When I click on ‘Android 4.4’, it won’t boot and it does nothing but highlight the ‘Windows’ as the only option.

Prepare the Android SSD partition contents :

1.	Launch the Nautilus application

2.	On the left, open the newly created Android partition

3.	Close Nautilus

4.	Launch the Terminal application

5.	Execute the "sudo nautilus" command

6.	On the left, open the Android partition

7.	Rename the "android-X.X-rX" folder to "android"

8.	Launch the GEdit application

9.	Save an empty file named "android.id" in the Android partition's root. This file will help identifying the partition and simplify your life. The only way I’m able to save file is by saving to desktop or somewhere and coping/moving file over to Android folder.)

•	Mount the UEFI partition in order to edit it :

1.	This step should not be needed if you're using Ubuntu installed on the SSD,

to make sure, check in Nautilus if "Computer/boot/efi/" is accessible

2.	Launch the Terminal application

3.	Execute the following commands one after the other :

1.	"sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"

2.	"sudo mkdir -p /mnt/boot/efi"

3.	"sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot/efi"

sda2 may have to be adapted depending

on what you earlier saw for the EFI partition

4.	"sudo apt-get install efibootmgr"

5.	Accept the installation with Y and Enter (I don’t get this option to accept or not)

6.	"sudo efibootmgr"

7.	If you do not have a full list of your booting options,

please stop here and post a question to fix the issue

4.	Launch the Nautilus application, make sure "Computer/boot/efi" is accessible

and contains for example a "EFI" folder with a "Microsoft" folder into it.

Otherwise, please ask for help and delay your installation to an other time.

Which file below should be used and exactly where is it put?

Android-UEFI.zip

Android-UEFI-v2.zip

These are pics of what happens when I try to save Gedit file and when I entered "sudo nautilus" command in terminal app.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
1. That one isn't important as long as the "android.id" file exists on the root of the Android SSD Partition.

2. Doesn't matter, some versions ask different question, the main idea is the same.

3. V2, I let the first one just in case but I will remove it now.

4.1. The sudo nautilus command works fine, don't look at the output, most apps launched create a lot of non important informations output.

4.2. If the gedit cannot save a file, run it using sudo gedit, it will have the needed rights then.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
You can use

sudo touch /yourandroidpath/android.id

To avoid using gedit or anything

Tapatalké depuis mon OnePlus One MIUI !
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
That's the way I do it but I wanted them to avoid searching for the /media/username/.../.

Thanks ;) .

Edit : I attached to the tutorial a small .sh script I made for Ubuntu (14.10)

in order to change the screen brightness (as it doesn't work by default for the moment).

The script requests a brightness value between 10 and 100 (represents percent, 10 minimum to see things),

and works fine so far for me, I'll let you know if I find a complete solution one day.

I now use the s2disk hibernation manager instead of the default pm-hibernate,

search on the internet, it really works better than the original one.

I had issues of random fails of pm-hibernate, and since s2disk nothing.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Thanks for your work mate. I'll take a look at this.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
By the way, there's something I didn't talk about :

My XE700T1C now has separate 3 EFIs (Windows 8.1, Ubuntu 14.10, Android 4.4.4)

+ a new EFI I use as a Multiboot for the 3 previous ones (named rEFInd)

It allows me to choose on each boot properly which OS to boot on,

automatically boot on the last one I used after 5 seconds, and so on.

If anyone is interested, I can share with you the configuration and rendering I achieved.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Yeah, looks cool, I'm curious to see your configuration. I'll take a look at this too.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
I cleaned my files to the minimum needed, finally found a nice icon for Android

and redesigned it to a design inspired by the Next theme, looks good now I think.

I attached the refind folder to the Guide, you can see and test it out.

Let me know if you can't make it work, but the way I did it,

it should be 100% compatible with the rest of the tutorial,

it uses the Windows EFI, the Android EFI and the Ubuntu EFI.

If you don't want the Ubuntu one, just edit the refind.conf

and remove the Ubuntu entry at the end of the file.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Thanks, I'll try it as soon as I can.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] :
I'm still not able to get Android 4.4 to boot.

sudo gedit worked to to be able to save android.id

But using the following did not work:

"sudo touch /media/ubuntu/Android/android.id" which seems to be my android path to android.id.

Can I post a snapshot of something that you can look at to see if I'm actually doing it correctly?
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] ruagun:
I can't seem to find the attached refind that you speak of.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quimerinha:
Hey guys, i know it is a n00b question but i'll ask anyway.

I am planning to flash CM 10.1 (Nightly), it's the first time i flash a ROM (Okay, i flashed XXLSZ some time ago but didn't wiped the phone, just flashed it) and at the moment i am backing up everything with Titanium Backup. But how will i get my things back after flashing CM? Does it come already rooted so i can just install Titanium Backup again and get everything back?

Oh, and another question, i know i will lose a lot of TW features like S Planner, S Memo and S Pen Gestures. But i really would like to just be able to use the pen to navigate through menus and stuff like that, is that possible?

EDIT: Oh, and is there another pure 4.2 Android ROM better/more stable than CM10.1 Nightlys? Can i flash it normally once i am using XXLSZ?

Thanks guys, and sorry for my bad english.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoteboyTech:
1) Yes, CM roms are pre-rooted

2) Yes, you can use your spen to navigate through menus..

3). http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1847786 this is the place which you might need..

4)all the CM roms are good.. there is nothing like good or bad...

5). No you need to wipe everything i.e. system, preload,data.. then flash for a clean install
