Del definately works; tested with usb& wireless keyboard (perhaps quick-boot is preventing it. The other way is to press shift while pressing the restart button (start ==> power). Then you'll find reboot to bios in there somewhere.
[Windows 8 General] oeriel:
Keyboard working, but can't go into BIOS with it.

I have similar issue with my other tablet - teclast X80H. Maybe they all have it. On this Teclast I have a Q-Cable which allows me to charge and OTG in same time through micor USB. There are 3 switches 1 - for OTG only, 2 - for OTG and Charge, and 3 - for Charge only. When I try to enter to BIOS by switch "1", when it's only OTG it works, but when I try to enter to BIOS through "2" position on switch I can't, but keyboard works. Keyboard have first reaction when Windows is loading. Till this time, it seems as disconnected.

Maybe your keyboard, have similar electronic "something" that only wakes on Windows or some files were loaded to operate it.

Try different keyboard and connect it most simple as possible. With Cube i7 Stylus, I have no problem with my 2,4GHz keyboards, but bluetooth never checked. When I try this Q-Cable on my Cube, it have same behavior as in Teclast.
[Windows 8 General] murakh:
The on-screen info message indicates ESC or DEL to get into bios, I have used both and they seem to work, BUT I have had the same problem as you. Button mashing ESC or DEL sometimes seems to go unrecognised (using the Stylus keyboard dock). Alternating between ESC and DEL is now my usual method. And I think timing also plays a factor, too early and it doesnt work.

Also try rebooting from Windows (i.e. boot, miss the BIOS entry step) get into Windows and reboot from Windows, this has almost always let me into the BIOS on the reboot attempt (thus why I think it might be timing, or "recognition" that the dock is connected).

This is a variable issue though, not every time. Once you are in the BIOS my suggestion is to disable quiet boot, and in future do the keypressing right after the initial white information text appears under the logo.

For the Auto Rotation, my only suggestion is to check if the Sensors services are being stopped, if so manually start them or set back to Auto and hope it works. Also check if the SDO sensor is still listed in the device manager and manually add it (Add Legacy hardware - Sensors - Microsoft - SDO Sensor V2.

If that doesn't work, and it were me, I would try removing the drivers, then ensuring the sensor services are enabled, then try installing the drivers again.

My question was regarding the "downloads" section of the Cube webpage. There are two Win10 ROM's each for two DIFFERENT IMEI's apparently. Now I need to know what's that all about.... Thanks. MOD EDIT
[Windows 8 General] mrozboss:
So rebooting windows and then entering bios finally worked thx a lot.

For the autorotation, i got the SDO sensor in my device list but i dont know how to check if the sensor service is actively working.

I will do a clean install of windows 10 though cause that seemed to resolve the issue for some people.

Im just not shure if i will be able to activate windows because when i was looking for the key with magical jelly keyfinder it just said the key is BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB-BBBBB.
[Windows 8 General] HypoTurtle:
You should be fine fresh installing Win 10 over activated Win 10. I believe the activation is tied to the device rather than the number/product-key with Win10.

That being said I think its the product-key and not the installed-key that you need. Not sure if magic jelly shows both.

[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] is there an OEM key in the default bios? i.e. if fresh installing would it be advisable to restore to initial from factory bios...
[Windows 8 General] mrozboss:
It shows both but i just started media creation tool and it recognizes the activation of my windows 10 as volume license and the program switches to chinese..... not exactly shure what its doing now :D

Do you think i will be fine if i just install windows from any iso because it should recognize the hardware and then activate it?

Hey, I get frustrated with sometimes unhelpful answers too, but it doesn't do much good to lash out. You just have to remember that since English is a defacto international language, not everyone is at the same level of expressing or understanding, so some replies might not always hit the mark. In the end, responding harshly to someone who means well may be counterproductive and make others less willing to respond or help. Remember, more flies with honey than vinegar (but who really wants to catch flies anyway, right? ;) )

Sorry I can't help on the actual question though about the Win 10 versions and the IMEI thing.
[Windows 8 General] HypoTurtle:
MOD EDIT

You didn't reference directly the download page you were referring to, so its reasonable for [MENTION=5226499]oeriel[/MENTION] to assume that you were looking at a list with actual 13 digit IMEIs (or how ever long they are).

I'd guess you're referring to something like this page (english version of this page), where by IMEI they actually mean model number (or serial number). From that list there is WW and WWA - looking at the back of my tab I have model i7 W and serial number i7W64GB****, so no help there when choosing WW/WWA. However in Windows System Settings my model is reported as WWA, and I have Win10 Pro.

If I was to guess I'd say that WW is Win10 Home and WWA is Win10 Pro.
[Windows 8 General] Ogider:
On back I have i7 W.

But inside device is a sticker with the inscription: i7 WW..and I have windows 10 home.
[Windows 8 General] oeriel:
Here were some people that tried to install wrong BIOS or other files. Not for i7 Stylus, but for i7.

You didn't provide correct informations..

Best regards

MOD EDIT
[Windows 8 General] mrozboss:
So the clean windows install finally resolved the autorotation issue, only now my windows is not activated :(

Should i contact the seller or write directly to cube for a license?
[Windows 8 General] HypoTurtle:
I'd leave it for a day or so, it should auto-activate while connected to wifi. At least that's based on every article on fresh installing after update to win10.

(the only addendum to that is if the stock bios has something to do with activation/keys).

Edit. I think the bios key is an OEM key, whereas these win10's are retail activated - so ignore the above.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
Yes, the default windows key is embedded into the Bios. However you can also extract it from the bios backup and enter it manually on the windows setup.

Edit:

Download HxD open the bios_backup.bin file and search for this hex value:

01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 1D 00 00 00

Touch screen advice

Got my i7 two months ago. Installed w10 and drivers. Functioning very well in every respect. But yesterday after attached to the cube keyboard, the touchscreen suddenly stopped working.

Before that I could scroll with my left hand and use the stylus with right hand.

Now only the stylus works.

Guess this is a w10 driver problem? Reinstall drivers?
[Windows 8 General] baha76_s:
Hi Wootever,

I saw this article in the hackinformer forum:

http://hackinformer.com/2015/11/12/android-pc-without-emulation

that detailed a tutorial for installing a dual-boot android x86 with any windows 10.

So I tried this method but I always blocked at step 4 which I must booted a bootable USB drive of Android x86 (created by unetbootin in step 3), as the tablez didn't recognised the bootable USB even if I changed the boot orders to Nombre 1 USB drive, save changes then reboot.

So can you help me find what I must do to work or what I missed to boot this USB drive.

Or can someone try this method if the boot work for him to see if the dual-boot work for him or not in our tablet.

Thanks

[Windows 8 General] HypoTurtle:
I tried looking for this in the bios yesterday (before knowing that string). It's definately not in my bios backup anyway - if you still have your preinstalled win10 bios backup can you check to make sure that the bios key is just there in the win 8.1 bios...
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
I checked it again, interestingly i got two different serial numbers: the bios embbeded one is Win 10 RTM CoreCountrySpecific OEM DM and the other (used for the pre-installed windows) Win 10 RTM Professional Retail.

I also replaced the SSD and made a clean Windows 10 Pro install, it got activated right after connecting WiFi without entering the serial, still i tried to enter the RTM Professional serial on a different computer and it shows the Windows 10 activation message.

It seems they are using valid Windows 10 Pro licenses now, which is a nice change compared with the highly criticized KMS activation policy.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:

copy the content to the new created fat32 partition and boot from uefi os, you also need an external keyboard to navigate the bootmenu.
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
Think there is a way to get the volume and maybe windows key to work for grub menu for a dual boot setup? That way you could select which OS from the menu without a keyboard.

stylus i7 successor

Does anyone have some information about the next Cube i7 stylus?

I'd like a surface pro3 / pro 4 clone (bigger screen, 3:2 aspect ratio, skylake maybe, bigger ssd)

Is something coming out soon? Or i buy this one?
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] do you know is there any space between battery cells and back cover?

What do you think about Surface Pro 4 heatsink? http://www.technobuffalo.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/surface-pro-4-teardown6.jpg

If there is space between battery and back cover maybe there is possibility to also extend copper plate to that area.

Something like this lets say: http://i.imgur.com/Top9UQq.jpg
[Windows 8 General] baha76_s:
Yes it work for me I can boot to android Efi sector with my original i7 stylus keyboard.

But unfortunately I don't have wifi nor bluetooth, is it the same case with you?

Because if it is the case so it will not worth the try.

Impossilbe update to last Windows 10 treshold 2. I tried twice and get this error "INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE".

Any suggestion?
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
I got that error when i tried to force the update with the upgrade method someone posted.
[Windows 8 General] Ogider:
For me ,new Win10 upgrade passed without any problems.

I did that from normal windows update program.

Only Bluetooth driver was removed,after the first run.
[Windows 8 General] MDaveUK:
Works for me the new Windows 10 threshold update. Incredibly long update and install process though, make sure you don't need to use the tablet before update install starts.
[Windows 8 General] ender7:
Ok. Some people have this problem and others no problem.

can be for the modified bios? I have bios mod v3.
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
Must be it, I am on the latest BIOS mod too and I got the BSOD on both forced update and regular update via windows update.
[Windows 8 General] Artikbot:
Potentially the BIOS, yes.

Default BIOS here and zero trouble updating. It did take most part of an hour though.

On another note, I am thinking of making a new heatspreader, but optimised to use the back cover as its main transfer surface. We will see how it affects processor and skin temperatures.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
Realtek WiFi/Bluetooth support this is likely added in a future release.

Not enough to fit anything more than a small thermal pad, but you could move the second battery cell to gain some space.

A thin heatpipe and copper heatspreader then would fit between the battery cells, similar to the Surface Pro 4 cooling solution:

Remove the left cell from the protection board and extend it with cables (note the correct polarity).

Edit:

I actually have some spare heatpipes from my replacement part notebook to test:

Edit2:

The notebook heatpipes aren't thin enough, i ordered one with the size of 100mm x 9mm x 1 mm.

I will refrain from bending it, unfortunately this also reduce the size of usable copper:
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] thanks a lot for your effort,

since there isn't enough space without moving battery I won't be doing that mod, since temperatures should be ok with "normal" copper heatsink mod.

But for sure something like that will be necessary when Chinese manufactures start to produce tablets with real i7 cpu and iris gpu, or maybe even future intel i7 generations..

Right now I am happy with this tablet and will not change it before they produce something at least 2x performance of this one..

But will follow you closely on this one, because this will be something very interesting and also necessary for future fast tablets which are going to be very very interesting for gaming (on the go) too.

p.s. you can bend copper heatpipe easily, there are instructions available online
[Windows 8 General] pablo01609:
Whith a normal copper heatsink, how many do °C it reduces?
[Windows 8 General] ender7:
Could anybody with modbios update to Windows Treshold 2?
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
You need to ask [MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] that because mine isn't finished yet, and I am not sure if he tested temperatures on latest revision.
[Windows 8 General] icsoft:
Please be aware that Android is basically just Linux with a different user interface, so most Linux drivers will work (except video card drivers due to the different GUI), so compiling the wifi driver mentioned on the Linux guide, with the same Linux kernel you are using should bring up the wifi for Android.
[Windows 8 General] mrozboss:
well for me it didnt auto activate but luckily i had a windows 8.1 pro key laying around and since windows threshold 2 you can use that for activating windows 10

had the same problem. i downloaded the threshold 2 iso and did a clean install with that now everything works perfectly
[Windows 8 General] baha76_s:
Thanks, I will try your method to compile wifi drivers from github.

But I have some questions because I'm not very expert (or not familiar) in Linux coding:

1. When you said "compiling the wifi drivers with the Linux kernel" are you means the "kernel file" which presented in the android x86 package that Wootever provided or you means another file.

2. How can I compile with the code "sudo make"

3. With the resulting .ko file (from the previous compiling), where I must put it, because there is no such tree location in the android system files.

Or is it the location tree of the decompiled kernel?.

Thanks

I get a weird error when trying to update to the latest version of Windows 10: "You can't install windows on a usb flash drive during setup".

I'm not trying to install it on a USB device, I'm trying to install it on the primary SSD.......
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
Did this two days ago without any problems.

Cpu reaches up to ~70°C and backcover gets noticeable warm but it's within the limits. Still a major enhancement compared with the default cooling solution.

Indeed, this is what i'm thinking as well (cherry-picked Core U for example). I really like the concept of the Surface Pro 4, the thermal system is dimensioned for 15W TDP but even without an active cooling the passive elements should be able to dissipate 7.5W+. Perfectly fitting for a 6W cpu and even usable without throttling.

I know but i don't like to take the risk, also i'm probably using those heatpipes in my next device as well.

"Live" image (battery cell cables are just temporary):

I will just add a second heatpipe beneath to take advantage of the free space.

Edit:

Perhaps change some modbios values could help....
[Windows 8 General] ajdeneka:
[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION]

If I understood right, heat pipe is 1mm thick, so when mounted over heatspreader Part 1 on cpu, it will be just 0.1mm under back cover.

So in order to keep heatspreader Part 2, you will need to cut it exactly where heat pipe is going to fit on Part1.

Do you plan to do that or you will remove Part 2 completely?
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
Did a google on WIndows 10 Threshold 2 BSOD, and found peopel have issues when a SD card is used when updating, which is exactly what I have atm. Wonder if Ender7 does too, I am trying the update without SD card in the slot right now to test.

Look more carefully on screen size ;) Just Cube i7 are 11.6", Cube i7 Stylus 10.6" screen size. If it is 10.6, then it's OK.
[Windows 8 General] -MB-:
Welp, taking out the SD card did nothing, it stil crashes after installing it rebooting for the last phase of the setup with that same BSOD error. Gettign bit pissed now with this tablet tbqh.

Maybe it's due to having a i7 stylus with improperly activated windows 8.1?
[Windows 8 General] ErylFlynn:
That is what threw me. It says 10.6 but as you mentioned I was pretty sure the i7 was a bigger screen.

So what is the opinion on the AliExpress screen protector?

I used a Techgear matt screen protector film for a surface 2 and had to trim it down slightly - the camera hole is in slightly the wrong place, and the corners are a very slightly different shape - but I guess it would depend on how close to the edge the glass one goes as to if it would fit or not...

I don't use Android as a dev platform or as an everyday OS.

It is not easy to natively compile software for android as it is for other Linux OS as there is no repo for android like others. you need a full development environment set up with the kernel headers, I would imagine that the kernel headers are available with the SDK for the particular version of android you are using.

You would need to run the "make" in the chroot for the OS you are using with the dev environment you have set up.

I do not know where Android stores it's kernel modules, you mey have to compile the kernel with the module statically linked.

These are very advanced topics, I would suggest that if there is not a very detailed description on the net about how to compile installable driver modules into the Android Linux kernel, or you have done it before, i respectfully suggest that you don't try.

Best of luck
