[MENTION=3856942]p0k3y[/MENTION] ... if you have XE700T ... not the XE700T1C then follow these instructions from A-IA site:

as I mentioned in the OP the XE700T is officially supported ... link to the site https://01.org/android-ia/documentation/samsung-xe700t

[MENTION=1898003]bdroid[/MENTION] ... use a recovery USB to roll back to windows only...

if you accidently lost recovery ... here is the link for XE700T1C-A01US reocovery image zip ... just unzip it to USB then boot using it and follow the onscreen instructions...

BTW this Recovery zip is not mine ... but I tried it and it is 100% working ...

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] p0k3y:
Battery indicator? That's not a show-stopper. Back to my question - safe to use your original instruction for my model? Thanks!
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] SixSixSevenSeven:
I dont own a windows tablet no.

From what I have heard though, core i5 systems benchmark damn well for android but have 2 notable issues.

Firstly they don't use full hardware acceleration, I dont know if thats a thing being worked on or what, but for now the sheer CPU power just hammers its way through that.

Secondly its an x86 processor. Android apps use what is called a virtual machine (its called dalvik, alot of people claim its java, but its not) which allows them to run on any hardware. However some apps use what is known as the android NDK, or native code running outside of the virtual machine. Reasons for this are code re-use (android ports of some iOS apps take this approach) or performance. The android NDK is platform specific, with the default settings if you create an app using the NDK, it will throw the little dalvik bit in needed to start the app and then it will compile the native parts for ARMv7 (most android devices). Changing the settings allows for x86, ARMv6 and MIPS but not everyone changes that, especially as it leads to its own problems in either distributing separate x86 and ARMv7 apps (possible) or it will let you throw both x86 and ARM versions in one app but this leads to an app double the size it needs to be. So nice and simple, many developers ignore it entirely and leave it at ARM only.

So you may come across certain apps which don't function on your device. The x86 devices sold to consumers such as the galaxy tab 3, do include an ARM emulator to help avoid some of the above issues, sadly android-ia and androidx86 dont do that.

Have fun. And yeah, test that you can get into your recovery first, always a good idea.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] salahmed:
You made a backup... And you have a recovery... And I give you a link to a working recovery image in case you need it...

Please try it... So it can be added to the OP...

It is not hard to recover your PC...

The long story:

I was running windows 8 then installed 8.1 preview to try it then installed android... Everything was OK... Then I was trying to play unlucky game with the partitions and corrupt them... But I used the recovery USB ... Back to windows 8 then installed android again...
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] p0k3y:
Thanks, I will try it soon. What I meant by "safe" was whether your instruction applies to my model XE700T1C-A01US. I think it does. But let me know if it doesn't.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] KaminoReal:
Thanks Adrian DC, your guide gave me a very quick run, got everything installed in less then 30 min!

Now the problems :P

I have the H01US, the model with Sierra Wireless EM7700 4G LTE modem, works just fine on latest Ubuntu, even it see it as MC8700(idVendor: 0x1199 Sierra Wireless, Inc. idProduct: 0x68a3 MC8700 Modem), anyone have an idea how to get it working on androidx86?

Second bug, since I wanted AC WiFi, I changed the combo card with Broadcom BCM4352.

Both wifi and bluetooth are dead on androidx86 and again they work just fine on latest Ubuntu(wlan0: Broadcom BCM43b1 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 6.30.223.248 (r487574))

Any inputs much appreciated.

Does anyone know how to upgrade android to a newer version. Would I have to remove it first or could I redo process
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
You're welcome, happy you successfully made it through the whole guide.

I can't tell you about the 4G module, I don't use it so I can't tell you either if my 3G SIM is working.

Ok so Now I tried my 3G H+ SIM on my Samsung ATIV, it does work great on Windows,

but I'll probably never use it (or perhaps when I have big Internet issues and want to open my Xperia SP..)

My Ubuntu didn't see the 3G SIM, doesn't matter for me anyway.

But I'm not surprised your Android installation doesn't see it,

it does not include all the existing drivers for all devices,

so it may be available one day but I not convinced about it.

Maybe a report to the Android-x86 developers could help.

As for your ac WiFi, again, can't tell you more, if it's not seen then either wrong / missing drivers,

or an error trying to connect to the hardware using the normal WiFi configuration...

Try to search about this issue on the internet, in general, not only for our ATIVs.

If it is for Android-x86, see my "update process when a new version is released" part of the guide,

I always do it like this and it preserves your whole installation as on a normal smartphone ROM flash.

USB installation is mandatory to retrieve the new system files.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] alphamale:
Thanks for the reply I didn't install Ubuntu though I used a different method. Do you know any other way. Could I do the process over not worried about saving data. Or would I have to remove android then do it again
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
You can still use the Android Live USB to perform the transfer of files.

As done in the rest of the tutorial.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] alphamale:
I decided to redo whole process over during installation I get Error mounting /dev/sdb1
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
When and where is it occurring ?

sbd1 should be the partition from your USB stick, or maybe MicroSD..
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] alphamale:
I select installation it starts bout process then ask to select partition I select USB stick. Then it ask to format I select no. Then I get error. I don't know how to partition abd1 on usb
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
You have to partition the USB key, it won't work without the Ext2 4GB partition.

You have to know / learn how to partition a hard-drive or a USB flash drive,

otherwise you can't do anything else from the tutorial.

The USB partitions can be done either from Windows

(Ease US Partition Master for example) or Ubuntu (gparted)

Different informations about it can be found on the Internet.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] dudi4ek:
Many,many thanks to [MENTION=2233641]Adrian DC[/MENTION].I just installed androidx86 on my ativ following his great guide:good:.Only 1 thing ,after "sudo apt-get install efibootmgr" command it installs "android" folder in "EFI" and just had to replace it with the attached file.After that it booted into Android right away.

Android runs faster than on my LG G3,but so many apps are incompatible so it's kind of useless.

Thanks again for all the efforts from the community and I'll keep watching the thread for any future development.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] dudi4ek:
If anybody is looking for an easy way to uninstall Androidx86 or Android-IA just use soft like EaseUS Partition master to delete all the partitions created from android and then use EasyUefi to delete android boot record,then reboot and after that resize windows partition with EaseUS Partition master and it will auto reboot the system and applies the changes.That's how I uninstalled Android after using both of the guides in the thread.Such a pity so many apps cannot run properly or force close on our Ativs.
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Yeah Android x86 still need work but it's a great start though.

I just hope they will continue to support Ivy bridge.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] midi_1996:
Thanks for the guides (both of them), just for your information, there is a thread on InsanelyMac on how to install OS X on this device (pretty much everything works but the wifi card, need change, easy tho) and it uses Clover efi bootloader, you can simply configure it to boot ANY SYSTEM YOU LIKE! (It's based on refit btw, and better have the efi file) and can also boot OS X.

Here is the thread: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/298815-guide-samsung-ativ-700t-yosemite/

Once I'll get my hands on that device I'll clean up this os x thread mess (hackintoshers will know what I'm talking about: look at the config file!!) and link to this XDA topic for quad boot POSSIBILITY (even tho 128GB is barely enough for dual booting)

The OS X thread still need work (ill try to help too), so follow at your own risk!

(Fyi: insanelymac DOES NOT support tonymacx86 or iATKOS, and its users DO NOT support niresh either, please do not mention any of those distros/tools there, rules are rules)

Thanks again :)
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] pushnoi:

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] midi_1996:
Go to android-x86.org, and look for an iso with kernel 4.0, you will have to install GRUB2 and remove the 01.org's android with the partitions. Its still in an alpha stage, Gapps arent fully working (for play store and app downloading it's ok, but you will get som FCs from time to time) and I cant guarantee that the touch screen will work, normally it should as it's a usb interface touch screen. That's all I can tell, as I dont have the tablet :/
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Mr_nUUb:
Hi!

I just wanted to tell you how you can change the brightness without the shell script UbuntuBrightness.sh.

Add "video.use_native_backlight=0" to the kernel comman line,

Like this;

GRUB_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)"
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet video.use_native_backlight=0"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true

in your /etc/default/grub file and rebuild your grug configuration with

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg

Have fun using the brightness control of your desktop environment :)

PS: I use Fedora Linux, so change the path to the config file as needed :)
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] AdrianDC:
Well done, I tried an other one before but without result, everything's ok now ;).
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Mr_nUUb:
The driver creates its own backlight (intel_brightness or so) and ACPI creates its default backlight control.

ACPI = native, so this one will be used (kernel 3.13 and above) but it is useless. It won't change anything.

Gonna test some settings in Android tomorrow.

Hi!

i'am looking for the recovery zip for my device (XE700T1C-A01FR).

Did you know where can i find this?

i need to restore my tab and impossible to restore it form the recovery.

And impossible to instal win10 from usb key, it say that partition system is in wrong format...
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Andycar:
I think there is no any recovery for this device in the same sense as on android devices.

EDIT: if you mean original win8 factory image, I can have a look tomorrow, but cannot promise anything.

Regarding Win10, you should go advanced and delete all partitions [ONLY IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT DATA!] then you should be able to install Win10.

Good luck!
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] salahmed:

No problem! Can you upload it when you will be back at home? It's my second pc and I can wait!

Yes please have a look. I don't care about data so I can delete all partition. It's strange because I can boot on my win 10 key, impossible to instal on it. It say: the selected disk use CGP partition system. And it's the same results for all 6 partition.

This are all part I see in win10 installer:

Part 1 : recovery

Part2: I have it without part system because I have remove it

Part3: reserved for MSN (126mo)

Part4: like my part 2 (106.3 go) where I want to install win 10

Part5 : Samsung_rec(11 go,)

Part6:Samsung rec (1go)

They can update from 11 to 12 cause update is mean to do so but try a 5.1 rom on a 4.4 and you'll see.

Anyway that's a bit off topic.

For my new installation I extracted within Ubuntu, system folder from system img, I put this along with kernel etc then I created android.id file to be found by grub and then I tried to boot it but I got bootloop. I proceeded like this for my 4.4 installation if I remember well but here it only got me to the prompt and it's looping on starting surface flinger but it fails.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Mr_nUUb:
If you want to install Windows 7, please disable Secure Boot in UEFI/BIOS setup.

You have to update GApps if you update Android.

First of all, boot your Win10 thumb drive in UEFI mode and not CSM (then GPT is no problem). You can change this in UEFI/BIOS setup.

Second, if you still want to install it in CSM mode, press ALT-F10 and start diskpart. In diskpart enter the commands "select disk 0", then "clean", then "convert mbr" and then "exit". You have now deleted all partitions, converted the drive to MBR and can create new ones.

But please boot the Win10 setup in UEFI mode as the tablet will boot faster in UEFI mode.

[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Mr_nUUb:
Did you update as AdrianDC described in his tutorial ("sudo cp -rp ...")?

Or did you update without the switch to maintain permissions?

If you updated without copying the permissions, then you screwed up pretty much everything.

I did this, had the same issues and I am ashamed of it...

Normally I would fire up my recovery and press "Fix permissions", but this device has no CWM/TWRP/etc...

So just do the update again, but this time instead of "sudo cp -r ..." do "sudo cp -rp ...".
[Windows 8 Development and Hacking] Kingzak34:
Of course I forgot, you can't be more right ! Thanks I'll make it clear and be coming back for results.

I dont remember if I copied it from a blank ext4 parition to the root of my ubuntu one, or if I directly installed it on my ubuntu one, but I have probably done from a blank one for having this problem.

Hey Guys. Quick question

Followed the instructions. Created a partition in windows for android 10gb. then installed the andoid OS on this partition (sda4 - diff for everyone) and was advised on another forum to format the drive as the same type of the SSD so i chose NTFS (i had done ext2 before and symptoms were both the same).

My issue is after installing everything successfully, through the installer, i could either run android or reboot. Running android starts the OS and everything works. but when i reboot I dont get the choice to chose booting from different drives.... It boots to windows automatically. When entering the BIOS and going to the boot device menu I only see the windows ssd 128gb and nothing else.

I can't seem to get the new OS to be recognised at a bootable drive.

How should i proceed?

I did not use ubuntu to install the OS on ssd. The instructions threw me off a bit because I've never used ubuntu. The original guide allows the installation without ubuntu. Please help
