Thankyou. I will give that a try this weekend as well, although the hid_multitouch module is being loaded so maybe that is included by default in the newer versions.
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] thankyou as well, and sorry, I had not linked that post to this problem as I wasn't thinking Android = Linux at that time. I will also try reloading that i2c module. Just frustrating that it works perfectly on some distros and not at all on others.

ErylFlynn: If you get a keymap working for grub please let me know as that is really the only aspect that is completely unresolved., and your keymapping (presumably of the volume buttons?) is a great idea! So far my solution is to leave grub as the main bootloader, ensure GRUB has all the necessary settings, and then have a

grub-reboot x # x being the number in the grub menu list of the OS you want to boot

command in Linux to reboot to Windows on the next reboot. Ideally I would like that as a shutdown option from the Desktop Manager GUI, but that is still to come.

[MENTION=342460]KamaL[/MENTION] mEmu works for the few apps I have tried on it, however it does heat up the Cube quite a bit even doing very little so I guess it is not very efficient.

[MENTION=7079804]tprata[/MENTION] Without being able to use it a lot yet, Gnome-shell does look like the best "tablet mode" DE, although it seems the general approval of Gnome-shell in the Linux community is not that high. Unity also seems OK, but I do not want to use Ubuntu / Unity. Playing around with KDE Plasma 5 last night, I think it could be an option after some setup. It looks better with larger icons and text than Cinnamon does, and the panels can be moved into more places. Definitely need to find a better onscreen keyboard though as none so far match up to the windows 10 style.

Ubuntu touch and Plasma (Active/Mobile) could be options too, however Plasma-mobile will take too much effort to get running and touch DE is currently only available in install-images with .... Ubuntu.
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
Mine has not shipped either, has 3 days left before auto cancel.
[Windows 8 General] :
Ordered mine during the 11.11 event, got it shipped on Nov 16.

Some other unrelated products I ordered have been shipped only since today, and I'm still waiting for some to be shipped, so yeah.
[Windows 8 General] murpf:
I have the original as well as a Bamboo Stylus. The Bamboo is quite nice and feels better, but it has no eraser tip and the button is so "well" integrated, that i can't "feel" him. Dont get me wrong, the bamboo is an awesome pen, but especially the button situation makes me use the plain one a bit more (if i just write notes and have to be fast, for example during my lectures, i usually use the bamboo. if i write something for myself, which i want accurate and have time, i use the oem.)
[Windows 8 General] =jon=:
I had to download the windows10 upgrade package again (I think the link is http://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10)

It should download an exe file, when you run it, it offers to do an in place upgrade keeping apps / files. I had to do this with no SD card OR USB drive attached - with either attached it would crash out with an inaccessible boot device BSOD about half way through and roll back.
[Windows 8 General] majkel_94:
Thanks, now the BT is working :D

But the Wi-Fi performance is then really bad, and the BT mouse is quite laggy... but only during stress test like speedtest.net :P

Maybe there is a better Wi-Fi driver to provide better speed than 30-40Mbps when BT is off?
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
Problem is, that I did all of that, and it still crashes.
[Windows 8 General] KamaL:
Thanks.

Can anyone try Amiduos and test its performance on the i7 stylus? It is apparently the best android emulator as of today.
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
Painfully slow here. Lagging and constant messagds of apps not responding etc.
[Windows 8 General] KamaL:
That's what I expected..too bad. It would be great to have a good android emulation such a tablet.

Thanks for the reply.
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] could you suggest some replacement wi-fi antenna from ebay that would increase wi-fi signal and speed?

there are lot of them under 2$, i can see mobile ones (iphone, s galaxy..), ipad, laptop ones... but i am not sure which to choose?

hope to get decent speeds without spending more than few bucks, is it possible? thanks!
[Windows 8 General] TMSxXDA:
Try Nox emullator, works on cube very well...
[Windows 8 General] PSC12:
Hi I have a big problem.

I wanted to make a BIOS update and then restart.

But it will not boot.

Can someone help me?
[Windows 8 General] godzebu:
I guess it depend on your expectation.

AMIDUOS is not as fast as vanilla Andriod running on nexus device.

But I'd say, it's running as well as last gen (2013-2014) andriod tablets, which is still pretty cool for the fact I can do all I need outta andriod device running at that pace.
[Windows 8 General] KamaL:
Looks pretty neat!! I'll try it.

What settings are you using for best display? What resolution and DPI?

Thanks
[Windows 8 General] HypoTurtle:
Good shout on that - seems same kind of build as MEmu (self packaged VMWare emulation).

Comparing to MEmu:

1. Nox is 4.4.2; MEmu is 4.2.2

2. Nox is clearly native English, or at least de-chinesified. MEmu is the android emulation that is preinstalled in some Chinese Tablets (from Cube etc.) there is Chinese in parts (i.e. in initial startup)

3. MEmu allows for adb shell'ing in. Don't seem to have adb with Nox.You can use adb using nox_adb.exe

4. MEmu's emulator buttons seem to be more touch friendly (bigger and seem more responsive).
[Windows 8 General] KamaL:
Nice comparison. Have you tried to change the resolution and DPI settings in NOX?
[Windows 8 General] silverspring77071:
What's people's battery life like with this tablet after a charge to 100%? I only get around 5 hours 20 minutes with light web browsing, Bluetooth switched off and screen brightness at only 8% (I like a dim screen). Also, my tablet loses around 1% charge after being in sleep for 1 hour. Is this normal? I know it's no iPad, but my iPad can be in standby for days and not lose much at all.

Tutorial

Hello friend, i wrote that tutorial and you can ask me whatever questions you want, ill provide assistance
[Windows 8 General] TMSxXDA:
I noticed that wifi module is very energy hungry, with turned off wifi, as it is when I reading books, it can keep charge for like 15 hours of reding, with same your britnees, and same situation for sleep, turn off wifi, and it will keep charge for couple days.

P. S

This hapens even with "power saving" of wifi module.

Also note that power consumption on win 8.1 (as my case) is less than win10.
[Windows 8 General] baha76_s:
Hi, Thank you for your message, and sorry for any inconvenient.

I post your tutorial here in this forum only for the purpose of sharing your method which I considered the best method I tried (no lag, no resolution ni DPI problems), but I had a tiny hardware problem (USB boot) which I think because of my device but thanks to Wootever who provide the android core package (the pure fruit of your tutorial) which worked perfectly.

But results the same problems as almost all android package :

1. No touchscreen effect (because Failed of touchscreen drivers to work in our device as described by Wootever).

2. No wifi-bluetooth (as the wireless drivers of our device not yet embedded in the kernel of Android installed as described few pages above) and I must to reinsert manually these drivers to the kernel to work, but I don't have the necessary skill to do that or it will be a catastrophe to my tablet which I don't went [emoji12].

Yes as I understood that there is a hope in the next update of Linux kernel (I think v.4.4) that will have already the drivers of our wireless hardware Version of our device.

Thanks

Yea iPad = ARM i.e. designed for battery life over performance, still battery life seems lower than the reported stats from the Core M powered Macbook. Don't think there's a working hackintosh for the i7 (and probably shouldn't mention that here anyway), so can anyone using a Linux build daily report better battery stats??

Also might be would enabling and using hibernate rather than sleep to remove sleep power loss; it will take a bit of storage space - but I don't think it takes too much.

resolution/dpi settings seem to work fine (well resolution change isn't something I really notice). DPI wise i like using tablet/phabletUI so use a dpi that identifies as ~8".

Also of note chromecast seems to work fine with NOX I had thought previously that MEmu wasn't working with chromecast due to the bridged lan network meaning the emulation appeared to be on a different network to the chromecast but now I'm sure that the issue with MEmu is the 4.2.2 system - unless [MENTION=6925289]WKSR[/MENTION] did soething with Nox to 'fix' using bridged network.
[Windows 8 General] Aicene:
On Russian speaking forum 4PDA was tutorial about how to install hackintosh :cool: Pay attention to this post: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=645616&st=1140#entry43654384

Try Google translate. It' not without flaws, but looks like works ;)
[Windows 8 General] shunsai:
I agree. Nox is the best of them so far in my opinion!
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
In a careless moment i dropped the tablet and now has a crack in the screen, tablet ofc works but had to disable the wacom digitiser to be abel to use mouse/kb. I assume it's nigh on impossible to dyi a replacement glass?
[Windows 8 General] zeroonea:
Hi, is this tablet has hdmi, I want to use it as mini computer with mouse (usb) and keyboard (usb) support, can it link to a monitor 23" full hd resolution?
[Windows 8 General] shunsai:
Yes, it has a mini-HDMI port. You would need to buy an adapter, but yes, you can connect it to your monitor.
[Windows 8 General] fraktulnz:
Finished my modding, will post pics up this week.

Results as follows;

3DMark11 with adjusted XTU settings (7.5W, 28sec; -78mV, -78mV, -77mV):

Max. 66°C, 7.5W and P1127 http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/10571007

Very happy with results, can play Crusader Kings 2 now on 29 hour flight to NZ next month if baby and partner co-operate ;)

Only significant stuff up was when using the hair dryer on casing to get it a little more bendable to prevent clips breaking; you need to be careful around the plastic next to the power button as this can melt a little if you have it up too high/over too long. Oh and not checking my screen protector when it arrived and going to put it on only to find it has been broken in transit :(
[Windows 8 General] RagsJV:
Whoa, finally a driver that worked :highfive:
[Windows 8 General] demkohell:
If any Linux works on your tablet, with touchscreen, you can easily build a version of the kernel with the drivers that you want, android-x86 is open source, check it out.

Question

Thank you for good job! I have question.

I can't rotate screen on my Cube. Are you have solution this problem?
[Windows 8 General] AndriKoval:
wifi bluetooth driver

May be i found easy way for wifi driver installation.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install rtlwifi-new-dkms.

For bluetooth

sudo apt-get install rtl8723au-bt-dkms linux-firmware
[Windows 8 General] meandu229:
How do you plan to power it or does your plane have plug sockets.

Im flying to Aus in Jan and really wanna take my cube but I dont think I have a plug socket just a few usb ports. Edit just read I do have power sockets :D
[Windows 8 General] icsoft:
Interestingly enough

sudo i2cdetect -L

[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=6342495]fraktulnz[/MENTION] you made latest heatspreader mod (revision 2.1)?

which temperatures does it hit when playing demanding games longer time? and does cpu and gpu work on max turbo MHz all the time?

thanks!
[Windows 8 General] javlada:
It won't work. You need a new kernel and Android-x86 uses 3.18. The porting to Linux 4.0 is in progress.

I wonder if I install it in VirtualBox, will it work? How is the HW accessed? Is the net, BT, touchscreen etc. emulated or directly accessed by it's own drivers? I guess it must be emulated to prevent conflicts and so it should work. I will try it...
[Windows 8 General] fraktulnz:
Emirates A380s have power sockets thankfully.
[Windows 8 General] meandu229:
Thats what im fying on too(although quantas but they say they do too), nice will be loading up some games for the journey then.

Thanks
[Windows 8 General] fraktulnz:
Using revision 2.1 with some modifications of my own:

- Mixed thermal adhesive with thermal paste in 70:30 ratio

- used 0.5mm spreader

- used 0.5mm thermal grizzly minus 8 pad

- used 0.1mm copper foil across the case with mixed thermal adhesive with thermal paste in 70:30 ratio

CPU and GPU work on max turbo all the time when playing Crusader Kings 2, it sits on about 64C over an hour - I have not seen thermal throttling in any circumstance I have thrown at it yet. Ambient temperature is 20C.
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
Did your tracking number show in DHL? Mine shows not found, concerned it is a bogus tracking number to get around the shipping time limit.
[Windows 8 General] recmajkemi:
I have same issues. Four days already sice tracking number provided but not found on DHL site.
[Windows 8 General] fraktulnz:
Have tried Civ 5 for 60 minutes tonight and got at a maximum of 72C where it flat lined after about 30 minutes. Zero thermal throttling recorded, however I would note that the CPU is not fully utilised 100% of the time in Civ 5.

Will be trying with a slightly more aggressive undervolt later in the week on each of the core, cache and GPU.
[Windows 8 General] Ragingsheep:
Yup same issue. Tracking number appeared on a Saturday night (local China time) but still hasn't appeared on DHL's actual website yet.

I'm actually really annoyed with this considering I paid for express shipping. If I wanted to wait, I could've just taken the free option.

Does entering your tracking number on http://global.cainiao.com show any progress beyond fullfillment?
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=2712684]Ragingsheep[/MENTION] when you finally get it, open a dispute and ask for a full shipping price refund.

don't forget to attach screenshots of date of purchase, payment, sent out from china date, and finally date of arrival to your customs.
[Windows 8 General] javlada:
I found a solution at least in KDE. The shortcut it displays is not Ctrl+Z but Meta+Z. So associated this as a global shortcut doing nothing. That solved the problem.

Now I have 2 remaining problems in Linux:

1) Long touch is not recognized as right mouse button.

2) I can not find any touch friendly applications. There must be some designed for Ubuntu Touch but I don't know how can I find and install them.

It would probably need to switch from X.org to Mir. But then I'm afraid that KDE won't work in Mir, they prefer Wayland. Anybody has tried the Ubuntu Touch version or has any idea how to get those applications in desktop?
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
Same for me order fulfillment.

So if it does not show in the 7 business days for DHL listed on the order we should dispute for that money back once we receive it?

Sounds like you can add the repo.

[Windows 8 General] Ragingsheep:
From my conversations yesterday, it seems pretty much confirmed that the tracking number is a fake since they need to get logistics to send me a new number, which is going to take a few days to receive.
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
What did you say to them to get them to send a real tracking number?
[Windows 8 General] Ragingsheep:
I told them that the number wasn't working and could they confirm that it's shipped and if so, provide me with a working number.
[Windows 8 General] WarcraftZIV:
11.11. sale tracking number

i'm also a buyer from the 11.11. sale

try to track the parcel over 17track.net. I thought my tracking numbre was fake as well but they send me the link to track over 17track.net and it is a real numbre, my parcel is at customs here in switzerland now.

Good luck with yours.
[Windows 8 General] remixxer:
Guys, did you find a solution for the touch? Sometimes it doesn't work, even if I press the windows logo, or keep the finger pressed on the screen. It's very annoying, I flashed the mod 3 bios on the first page. Thank you.
[Windows 8 General] tprata:
Thanks for the feedback, yeah i think i might go for gnome, after i do some more live image tests to see if i can be productive with it. It pains me to say it but M$ made a bloody good work on their touch interface, for all its flaws W10 runs pretty smooth on this thing.

On another note, I managed to get a 20$ refund from gearbest due to KMS activated w8.1. Only half the cost of a license, but give it a try, and do make a fuss about it.

To end with something, does anyone know the pinout for the dock connector? I think I saw some comments a while ago, but cant find the post... If it's only a usb connector I'm thinking of making my own dock to a mechanical keyboard. 60% layout is pretty perfect size for this tablet
[Windows 8 General] majkel_94:
Does both CPU and GPU run on full speed (in MHz - 2GHz and 850 MHz), or the frequency switching beetween different values? :P
[Windows 8 General] shunsai:
What works for me is rapidly rubbing back and forth on the screen with one finger. It takes a few seconds, but so far, it has worked for me every time.
[Windows 8 General] remixxer:
I ll try next time, but I'm pretty sure that it won't work.

Another question: sometimes it happens that the tab starts to lag without any reason, is not warm, nothing is open, even if I'm on the desktop trying to move the mouse it lags. Any idea?
[Windows 8 General] pablo01609:
Hi, i have installed a win10 of zero, but i can change the brightness and when i press the botton for switch off the screen it swich off the tablet. i'm think, i must install some drivers or apps.
[Windows 8 General] Lorideste:
Help me

Ok I screwed it!! Don't ask me why, I was trying to install the dispcalGUI software, but zero-install gave me error about downloading something from server, so I thought "whatever" and uninstalled it. the problem is that now the touchscreen (with my fingers) won't work, idk why!! I'm using the wacom pen now, but before everything worked, both touch and pen! What can I do? thanks mates
[Windows 8 General] shunsai:
Just out of curiosity- anyone else's Windows Defender detecting malware in Nox? I came home today to find my shortcuts had been removed and the exe quarantined because it detected trojans. It's a bit disappointing since this seemed like such a promising emulator to use on my Cube.
[Windows 8 General] billybanana:
I've managed to get a microSD card stuck in the slot. Tried the thinnest tweezers with no joy. Any pointers on removing the back cover. Seems like the only way I'm getting into the slot.
[Windows 8 General] fraktulnz:
As noted, in Civ 5 the CPu is not at 100% all of the time, this only occurs when you end a turn and the AI moves are calculated, otherwise inbetween it sits at about 50% utilisation, however this seems to be at the full clock speed.

Unfortunately I have not had time to do much more testing due to having a stinking cold and pretty much going straight to bed once I get home ....hopefully will be in a position to get pics uploaded on the weekend and finish testing. I am fairly confidant however that I should be able to run 100% CPU and CPU without thermal throttling occurring at all based on the results thus far.

One thought that has occurred hoverer for those of you looking at heat pipes that the the additional heat in the casing directly above the batteries may potentially cause accelerated ageing of the LiPo cells. I am not as familiar with LiPo chemistry, however for lithium ion this would certainly be a concern of mine at the temperatures being reached.
[Windows 8 General] TMSxXDA:
Nope, crystal clear [emoji16] , Eset Nod also says everything fine.
[Windows 8 General] KamaL:
How is Nox's player impact on battery life and overall performance? If we keep it running in the background, without CPU intensive apps and games, does it have a big impact on the battery?
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
So did peopel finally manage to get passed the W10 Threshold 2 BSOD thing successfully?

And have ppl have had problems with the usb ports either not detecting devices or being awfully slow on them?

Is the modded BIOS trying to reduce heat and save battery maybe responsible for it?
[Windows 8 General] jessie57:
my cube i7 just arrived this morning from the 11.11 sale. do you all recommend resetting the device before use? any other tips to enhance the user experience?
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
Just got mine also, have a Win 10 threshold 2 USB and debating about doing a clean install with a Win 7 Pro key I have. Also debating if it is worth getting a bigger drive to try and get a linux distro working on it.

So far I have it updating and that is all.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
Samsung NP N310 WiFi antenna was suggested by [MENTION=4477814]Artikbot[/MENTION].

It's very unlikey that dispcalGUI or Zero-install modified anything that disabled the touchscreen, i guess it's caused by the erratic touchscreen sleeping function.

Restore the default Bios and see if the modified Bios was the source of error.

Picture is made by GreenGO21 (4pda.ru)

Original replacement parts doesn't seem publicly available. A similar ~10" tablet glass could fit if it uses the same connector and touch controller (this is without guarantee of course).
[Windows 8 General] Ragingsheep:
FFS still no idea on where mine is. Can I ask what countries you guys are in?
[Windows 8 General] reggiexp:

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-6...mputer-XN-1572-B-Glass-Touch/32516333228.html

This one is also for a Cube tablet, just the i10, not 7, and the camera cutout hole is more centered there then on the i7, which I potentially wouldn't mind, I dont use the camera. But I am not even sure the touchscreen digitiser on it is compatible.
[Windows 8 General] Aicene:
First, I think, it's possible to contact with seller and ask, maybe he can get right touch. I heard a lot of stories about when you must ask, even any part aren't available in shop. Second I suspect, it is not right touch at all, we need Wacom compatible.
[Windows 8 General] leo06:
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] can i use this for heat spreader?
[Windows 8 General] Aicene:
You can use it, but with low profit. Copper has much better heat dissipation :good: Look on Aliexpress or Ebay. But copper are not very rare material, you should look around in tool or like that shops.
[Windows 8 General] leo06:
Already have the aluminum panel that's why i am asking
[Windows 8 General] mixterz:
memu emulator is the best out there at the minute,playing intensive games just fine , XDA support too.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
The wacom components are built inside the display. Something like this could possibly fit, the connector has 10 pins but the glass is only 10.1" which will leave a gap.
