Been awhile since I've come to this thread and I don't know what's new and hip these days, so be gentle!

SO -- in a little over a month, I'm going to go on a bicycle tour across Japan, and I'm thinking about taking my Cube i7 along as my primary computer (I'm also considering a Dell Venue 8 Pro, because it charges with a more versatile cable, but it needs more accessories to be useful, too) and I'm wondering if anybody ever found a smaller AC adapter for the device? Or maybe a AC cable that can accept power from a USB port / USB plug like my phone uses? I'm hoping to find something smaller and easier to deal with.

Also wondering if there have been any good bios / software updates I should consider. I haven't done many updates to it since a month or two after it launched.... I mostly just use it to draw on occasion.

Thoughts?
[Windows 8 General] DrHunt:
I have this issue that I would like to share my experience.

I cannot switch on my cube i7 from time to time; maybe once or twice a month. I do not know how to duplicate this problem, and I think it has something to do with the BIOS; this happens in both the original or Wootever's 5.7 BIOS.

What I have noticed when this issue happens is that the unit is actually being switched on but simply without display (because the metal back cover is warm). Here is how to recover from this no-display situation. Since the unit is actually switched on, you just press and hold the power button for couple of ten seconds to force the unit off, then release the power button and press it again, then this time you will see the unit comes on with display.

Hope this helps.

[Windows 8 General] DrHunt:
If you do not touch the touchscreen for a while, it will go into some kind of sleep-mode. To wake up the touchscreen, just press the windows key of the tablet.

What is the best actual android for the tablet, without the SD problem?

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAc5vpJ4mM8[/YOUTUBE]

So I installed adn tried the Remix OS beta today on my Cube i7 Stulys and everything is working great except for the WIFI. I ended up using a wifi usb adaptor but that too was disconnecting every few minutes. Except for that everything else is working great.

What I want to know is, if there is a way we can fix the wifi issue, using a driver from the Cube i7 Remix or from the android ports ppl are making in this thread?

Here is the youtube link as the above is not visible to me:

There's a dedicated thread for Android releases for the i7 stylus. I suggest testing the various releases as each one has its advantages and disadvantages.

Here is the link:

Androidx86 & Forks for UEFI Windows based tablets (custom kernels)

We already started discussing this latest beta release of RemixOS.

[MENTION=4056517]HypoTurtle[/MENTION] posted a custom kernel and modules for our tablet.

You can test it and follow the discussion in the Android thread I linked above.

Power Supply

What power supply do you guys have?

Mine is a 12v, 2000mA 0.6a Max - see attached image, but I see the some sites saying it the charger should be 2500mA.

I am trying to buy a replacement with a UK plug attached if possible, anyone have any ideas where to get one?

Thanks,

Jason.

I believe this will be OK, can't remember if the pin diameter is correct. If not there should be other choices.

I've got the same problem after flashing a new bios 5.7 mod.

No one software cant calculate capacity of battery, only can show voltage. For today I saw 8.3V and down to 7.35V. Monitored with hwinfo64.
[Windows 8 General] Artikbot:
Well. It looks like I need to send my Cube in for warranty.

Got both LEDs light up for a few seconds, then it shuts down.

This comes off the back of two subsequent bluescreens and some boot issues last month.

Hmmmm...

That's too bad.

Please update us about the repair process.

I solved the problem by letting my Cube discharge completely. After the next boot battery indicator works correctly again.

I've used Throttle Stop for a month, and I have had to use the custom version published here. Now the license for it expired.

Could I buy an official license and it would work with this custom version of Throttle Stop?
[Windows 8 General] baha76_s:
According to developer: it is a free forever beta version, and there's no attention from him to release a final version or take money for his work.

In the official forum site you can download the latest one then replace only the dll files and exe filewith the ones in your tablet, you will never lost any App settings or Windows schedule Setting.

I always used this procedure since long-time without any lost of parameters.

Thanks

Android OS Remix BETA whith real dual boot for PCs and other Win devises

I have dreamed when developers of Remix made two things. 1st its real dual boot bcs cube i7 is windows tablet so it will more comfortable use windows metro boot maneger, then use flesh drive with boot OS like it was in alfa virsion. So its happen!

But cube i7 11'6 inch and cube i7 stylus isn't having no wifi conection. I guess that problem whith drivers in Remix OS.

I wrote to developers, but they are having a lot of work bcs they have to support many devises and PCs ". So I'm looking for help in comunity, maybe someone have got skills to fix this problem for cube i7 stylus version and for cube i7 11.6 inch (no stylus vesrsion).​
[Windows 8 General] jcsammut:
I have the same problem

I have exactly the same problem, it started two days ago. However mine happens every time I shut down the tablet.

It only happens on Shutdown, not on Hibernate or Sleep. Does this sound like a hardware problem? Sounds more like software to me.

I did not notice it previously, however the first time it happened when I switched the tablet back on the battery had completely drained.

This says to me that the shutdown procedure is hanging after it has turned the screen off, but before the shutdown is complete.

Your work around of holding the power button in for 20 seconds seems to prove this, as after holding the power button down for that length of time it really does switch off the tablet, hence it powers on again afterwards.

For now I am using hibernate, which is not ideal, but a little more ideal than having to hold the power button down for 20 seconds.

Let me know if you get to the bottom of it and I will do the same.
[Windows 8 General] khanhtung16:
hi everyone, who can guide me how to reset battery parameters on this tablet.

Why i ask this question....

Because i recently figure out each stock cell can store 5300 mah (charge from 2.6 - 4.2 v) aka 39.220mWh at 7.4v

But in windows it still give me old capacity 31.820 mWh (wear 16.1%)
[Windows 8 General] h0l:
I installed the latest RemixOS Beta from March 1st, booted fine, dual boot with Windows 10 is working. I have the keyboard dock so I can navigate around fine, but the touchscreen and wifi are not working.

Has anyone come up with a solution for this (that I was not able to find)?

Hi guys,

Has anyone ever experienced that if you turn on Bluetooth and connect e.g. a mouse to it, the whole Wi-Fi connection dies?

Starts dropping from the network and chrome says there is no internet....

Is it driver or HW related?

With an external USB Wi-Fi stick, this ofc doesn't happen.

Yours,

Csaba
[Windows 8 General] PeppeBove:
It is HW related issue, we have just one wireless device with just one antenna, for both wifi and bluetooth, and it is obviously that it will conflict when you try to use simultaneously (usually they will just go slow, they should no crash, but may happen, rarely)

[Windows 8 General] c0de90e7:
I removed the ****ty wi-fi antenna and replaced it with these two the last week. wi-fi is really good now and I have no interference problems anymore. But, since I used two antennas, and from what you said, would it mean that both bluetooth and wi-fi can work propperly now ?

[IMG="cube i7 stylus wi-fi antenna replacement"]http://i.imgur.com/qD0ZfNz.jpg[/IMG]

Thanks in advance.
[Windows 8 General] DrHunt:
Both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are 2.4GHz devices, I have found this Chinese-made tablet has few more or less serious issues, therefore it is no strange to me that some units would have hardware design issue causing a conflict between WiFi and Bluetooth.

One issue I have is that the Wi-Fi connection is constantly dropping out; it is still working but quite annoying. Soon or later, I shall follow Wootever's instruction to replace its WiFi antenna; the method had been posted by Wootever at the first page of this forum. I would suggest you try this for your problem.

I have another annoying issue with this tablet, and wondering if anyone has any suggestion.

From time to time, my cube i7 original keyboard becomes not working, none of the keys is responsive. I have to separate the tablet and the keyboard, and then put them together and hear the device-connected sound to make the keyboard working again.

Does anyone know why?

Thanks
[Windows 8 General] ahmed1994:
Wow thats my video

Yes everything now works under os x el capitan including: gpu , sound, touch, wacom, battery status, cameras,

Only internal wifi and Bluetooth not working you'll need external adapter

And the performance is awesome

And the temperature is cooler than Windows i think
[Windows 8 General] richownsyou:
Excellent job Ahmed, I am looking forward to try that on my own cube i7.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:

Hi all, long time pass when I was off due to work and other activities 0:)

I want to say, that is nearly year (3/4) and my Cube i7 Stylus is working great. Till now I did not opened him, but this time is coming soon 0:)

I want to share 2 things for this tablet I'm using or planing.

Stylus

I'm using 2 stylus, original one (but from Dell Venue) and bought the cheaper one, just for pointing and as the "trip one". Many people said that it don't have a pressure levels, only one. I've tested it with my original one, and all works the same, pressure levels are just the same.

Here is link to this item - It costs about $8, I've bought mine for $7. But on this pictures it have red endings, mine come to me with black ones. Maybe it's difference? Anyway - 8$ stylus it's ok instead of $15+

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Digi...-Tips-High-Quality-Brand-New/32500573424.html

You can look similar stylus on other offers.

Charging jack ending

Many people was searching for alternative charger, just to have 2 or to have it when moving and don't want disassemble their original at desk 0:)

With this end, you can use any 12V charger which have 5,5x2,1 mm plug. Connect it, and it comes to your tablet as original one.

Second good thing is that it is angled, so sometimes it could be very helpfull.

Important. I've ordered it, not tested, but when it comes, I'll give you sign, how it works. I think the ending is correct for our Ci7. It has: 3,5x1,35 mm.

[Windows 8 General] rilot:
Just bagged myself a 256GB SSD to stick in this thing. Once it's in, this is going to be a seriously useful device.
[Windows 8 General] Tyrant82:
Please make photos of the inside so Wootever can check if the mainboard is a different from the ami bios version :)

Would like to stick a bigger SSD inside too but i am rather scared atm to break some clips or anything else..

i would also love to exchange the aluminium heat plate with a copper one or to stick better heat pads in there. Has anyone did this already and made photos of it?
[Windows 8 General] mixterz:
Installed one today by ztc.

Seems a lot quicker .

Installed no problem with a clean windows 10.

256gb will make will ease my mind now.
[Windows 8 General] rilot:
Sounds like you got the same drive that I ordered. I'm glad it's working for you.

Did you do a clean built of Win 10 from boot media or did you clone the drive across?

I'm thinking of using Veeam Endpoint Backup and doing a bare metal restore from a backup of the tablet.
[Windows 8 General] mixterz:
Clean windows 10 install from USB. Still have the original from the tablet as a backup just in case.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
Probably a difficult task, my guess would be a small copper sheet attached on the back, with some insulation foil that only leaves space for the cpu and ram.

Or (with the right equipment) built a new copper heatspreader that exactly fits the threads on the mainboard.

However i used a much simpler approach:

The red dots are filed down to remove the gap between the cpu and the shield (there is a thermal pad between cpu + shield AND shield + back), on the green marking i removed to insulation foil to fit the thermal pad for the LPDDR3.

On the back i attached several layers of copperfoil:

I used duct tape to insulate the copper foil and just leave a notch for the cpu.

There is still a thermal pad between the top aluminium shield and the copper foil, but it already increased heat dissipation.
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
This is exactly how it works.

These are probably just remnants from the intel uefi toolkit, so some of settings are just empty placeholders.

It should be in the same folder as the Flash.cmd is located.
[Windows 8 General] rilot:
Anyone got any ideas how to get the tablet to switch automatically between tablet mode and desktop mode when the keyboard is attached / removed with Windows 10?

My other convertible does this and it just works. This however doesn't.

I'm going to dig around in the registry and see what I can find.

Hi! I have a valid Win 8 (or 8.1) Pro key and would like to test if the upgrade is possible with the key.

Let me know if it's still available, and thanks in advance
[Windows 8 General] casioyan:
u mean a new file would appear in the same folder?

if so, i thought it didn't work.....:(

do u have the back-upped stock file?

huge thanks!
[Windows 8 General] Tyrant82:
anyone got other ssds yet? the ztc is not available for me in europe and the other option i prefer is the Transcend MTS400 M.2 SSD 256GB SATA III, MLC, but it says 160MB write and that seems rather slow because the stock one is about the same speed.

[MENTION=4709667]Wootever[/MENTION] : thanks for the explanation. Seems to be a difficult task, even in opening up :( What thermal pads did you use? 0.5mm, 1mm, 1.5mm? some Arctic ones or any other brand?
[Windows 8 General] Wootever:
[MENTION=6876510]casioyan[/MENTION]

This backup is more to be meant as precaution if something doesn't work as excepted on your device (never happenend so far).

However i can give you a backup of an earlier bios revision, did you get your device from the cube sale?

[MENTION=1859278]Tyrant82[/MENTION]

These are called Phobya XT, 1mm (for the ram) and 0.5mm (cpu package).
[Windows 8 General] sneakerdad27:
Mine works fine. I've had it since Wednesday now and have used it everyday. Sometimes there is a slight delay when I first put my finger on the pad but other than that it's been good. I'm still using Windows 8.1 Pro though, I hate windows 10 for what I use the computer for.

My problem is the touch screen. It stops working completely maybe every other day... like today. The stylus works still but it won't recognize my touch.
[Windows 8 General] forcuby:
Thank you for your reply, I fould the cause of this issue.

I found out that the user folder had a strange name, e.g, if my email account is xdadevelopers@xxxx.com, and my user name is forcuby, the name of user folder is like 'xdade_000'.

(and this acount was using for my other PC.)

So, I created another account until the user folder had a valild name, and the problem is solved now.

However, I cannot use my old account. I need to use that account on cube i7, because of syncronizing and so on...

Do you know how I fix that strange name of the user folder?

Thank you!

Turning off the capacitive Windows logo button

Hi!

I found a way to disable Windows button. For me it's really annoying because it's hard to hold the tablet in hands in portrait mode without touching it.

So:

In control panel you can do this to ;)

The cons is that it also disable the volume buttons and it still vibrate. I tried to disable it in device manager but there are only pen and digitizer device - when i turn off the digitizer the button also stopped working so it looks like they are connected to each other :P

If someone has a better way to do this - please share it with us! :D

hi guys, I have just received my i7. On the HW side it seems all ok, no wifi issues (for now), no keyboard isssues (it is not so bad). On the SW side, unfortunately, I detected KMS an i’m not able to use MS application so I can’t test the stylus. Can you help me to log in and use at least onenote? It shows an error similar to 0x00081. I’ll open a dispute for a partial refund.

How can I test if I have an original bing key?

If u have any questions on the tab/keyboard I’m here for you :)

PS I bought it on 23rd july and I paid 38 euros to DHL.

I had to reset the BIOS using the reset button at the top of the tablet after flashing 5.8, but I was using the original manufacturer BIOS when I flashed. After doing that I haven't had any trouble. Windows key is working OK here. I did have to adjust the thermal control offset as I had a pretty bad FPS drop in a couple of games with it set to 25. After setting it to 0, everything was back to full frame rate.

Even after pressing the reset button, volume and windows keys do not work for me.

Thats very peculiar, are you using the Stylus keyboard? I don't have that particular keyboard so I only tested with my BT keyboard and the onscreen keyboard. My volume keys (on the tablet itself) are also working ok. Wonder if there's a variation in the models.

hesitating

I bought cube i7 stylus for 300, then dhl asked 50, I rejected, and seller does not seem to want to take it back but on some auction I saw for 225 euro, surface pro 1 with typecover. I am hesitating... I am going to become homeless and live off solar energy, so the tablet that charges relatively fastest would be the best, and I like emulators, ffxiii etc, the gpu shows more fps on cube i7, because I saw someone benchmarking and cube had more fps, could also be throttling on i5, because core m is fanless and does not produce as much heat

SURFACE pro 1

-BETTER CPU 3317u passmark 3084 vs 5y10c 2824 - better for rendering videos of stars in 4k

-BATTERY 1HR MORE I think

based of bbench, having to charge less often is important

-WIFI 5GHZ 802.11 abgn, very important because annoying connection limited is not tolerable

-CHEAPER TO REPLACE SSD and standard more space, msata ssd is far cheaper than shady cube one

surface pro to 5.5x2.5mm dc to external battery to solar charger is possible

CUBE i7 stylus

4HR charge time

-LIGHTER 220g, very important because my bag is my home and less weight is important

-LESS POWER consumption same 12v voltage surface is 3.74 3.6a vs cube 2.5a^ means it will pick up lower frequencies of solar energy and thus better for charging

-HIGHER FPS ON HD5300 but overclocking surface will do,

cube i7 stylus 3.5mm to female 3.5mm to solar charger possible

Help me decide
