I am considering the X98 Pro. I have read through this entire thread.

My question is if I purchase the 64GB version, can I install a 512GB m.2 SSD, flash and adjust Win 10 partition? It seems as if that would have to be modified before flashing?
[Android General] chat1978:
My previous tablet is the teclast x80h.

The reason I had bought it then was because I was curious for the dual boot and windows on tablet.

After some time I never logged into windows because the performance was bad.

I have to say, the android is was flying and I was very satisfied with the intel chipset fit a android.

If anybody here had also past experience with the x80h or the 98 equivalent variants, can you please provide a short comparison for both portraying systems?

I've read here that the android is flawed but a new rom can be installed that improves things.

Another important question is whether windows benefits from the extra memory.

I expect big improvements but does it make the device usable?

Somebody also mentioned the lack of proper keyboard cover. Can you actually turn this device into a cheap surface?

Hello every one. I've just got my X98 pro.

I've managed to root it with the instructions so thanks.

I've also managed to mount the android data partition in windows I think I used ext2fs or something like that. It's on Google (they say it won't work with win10 but I've had no problems)

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------

Their is a problem I'm having. I was playing around with root features and I've bricked the Android side.

I'm guessing it's just a case of system restore.

I'm trying the "usb power then volume then remove USB" and I get yellow writing but nothing happens. Is their a video?

If not can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong.

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

I think this device needs at least a 3amp charger.

The charger can't keep up with demand @ 2.4 A

This device is to easy to bend (the alloy is to soft and cheap)
[Android General] mdrodge:
Thanks for clearing that up [MENTION=4036181]Darth[/MENTION] maybe I misunderstood.

Any one able to offer advice I might need a fresh ROM or a way to factory restore.

I just got Teclast X98 PLUS dual boot...

I can say first impression are better on what I expect... But i have some questions...

1. On Android partition, how can i remove/erase all that Chinese applications?

2. How can i set win10 on English language and remove Chinese apps?

3. On Android version how can i add 2 accounts (2 deferend Gmail users/accounts and each one to be separated from other? I need one account profile for my self and one for my wife.)

4. And last question does mirek190 had any rom that can make that tablet a beast??

Thank you in advance..

And sorry for double posting..
[Android General] mdrodge:
Mirek190 is much better. (As good as cm12.1 on most other devices)

The best way I've found to completely remove Chinese on windows on similar devices was to go in to settings and near where the updates are there is a restore windows option (it's basically the same as a fresh install) (not sure on exact wording)

This will take you through the setup options so you can select language and country.

(People will tell you that you don't have to go to that extreme and just changing it in the language setting but in my experience that doesn't help and still leaves a few bit's of Chinese on menus etc)

As for multiple account's in Android, not 100% sure
[Android General] phoenix10:
for multiple accounts i found that its a users account .. that you can add as much user you need .. so everything ok here !!

also does mireks release rom especially for X98 Plus dual boot ???

i dont want to risk by bricking my device ...

as about windows i thing

its hard for someone who used to use win7 to go to win10 (personal opinion)

was strange for me !!
[Android General] agustincordoba:
Hi mdrodge, my machine is C5J6, so this isn't really the thread for me, but "a propos" ExtFS I can confirm that it works fine from Windows 10, in fact this is how I accidentally trashed my Android!

[Android General] mdrodge:
Ext2fsd 0.62 yes I can confirm it works %100 with no patches or anything.

Just installed and set up.

P.s I also trashed my android once but a reflash fixed me.

---------- Post added at 09:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 PM ----------

Anyone in contact with Mirek190 ???

I would like to ask him if their is anyway he could add a script found on another xda page.

The script would add exFat, NTFS etc support to android.

My new 128 Lexar x1000 would comes exFat, Windows won't format large cards in FAT32 anymore without 3rd party software.

Android can't format this card without crashing.

My Samsung thinks the card is awesome but I can't use it in the x98 Pro.

The card from my Samsung is also a 128 but it's already FAT32 and works fine in the x98 pro.

In conclusion the Mirek190 v3 ROM needs exFat support to work with decent memory cards and NTFS would be nice for HDD's etc

[Android General] phoenix10:
Hey guys

Am very disappointed from my buying

(teclast X98 plus dual boot)

The tablet its too weak with much lags or delays..

Especially on battery that seems to be powerful its still weak..

Today from 62% remaining battery suddenly drop to 35% and after 20mins it get shut down with 0 battery..

Am very disappointed

In one hand i didn't use Windows only android section but its still weak..

Also from tablet are missing apps like a task killer or gapps

I hope mirek190 to give us a rom for PLUS dual boot as he did with PRO dual boot..

Any one else facing that problems??

P. S.

How is possible with 4GB ram to be laggy or apps like SwiftKey keyboard and eBay app to be so slow??
[Android General] Metrino:
First of all change loader, stock one is buggy. For second not all 4gb are used in android so. And yes, battery managing is buggy as well, but it works
[Android General] phoenix10:
which loader do you propose??

Also any solution for battery?

And last

I also noticed that there is not any light flashing when tablet charging
[Android General] Metrino:
I use nova launncher, way better after I installed it.

About battery we need changing ROM, maybe the problem is the kernel or the system, I don't know (they should work "together"). You can try a custom rom, the ones from Mirek should be fine but I still didn't test that personally.
[Android General] phoenix10:
Hmmm do you have any idea if mirek190 will work on plus for a custom rom??

Am worry of getting my tablet bricked :P
[Android General] Metrino:
v3 looks like the last one.

It improves battery save in sleep mode .

Flash script should leave windows partition untouched.

The most important things you have to know before doing anything are:

- You must use a good quality "tested" data cable, try to transfer something from/to the tablet by using cable, to test speed and throughput stability

- You have to check exactly your hardware version , (supported K9C6 and K9C3 but for the second camera doesn't work )

After that, follow literally instructions and if something goes wrong stop everything and ask for help in their forum (techtablets)
[Android General] mdrodge:
I'm a win7 boy to so I know what you mean..

The ROM worked well on my dual boot.

I did however lose the option screen when booting to pick OS but once booted to what ever swapping in the normal way is fine at the moment.

I'm guessing this can be fixed somehow but I haven't looked yet.
[Android General] phoenix10:
Which ROM did you flash? And that was on Plus or Pro?
[Android General] mdrodge:
As I'm talking about it...... Anyone got any ideas....

I've put Mirek190 v3 ROM on but I've lost the option to pick witch OS gets booted.

Once I'm booted I can use the swap OS bit so it's not a deal breaker.

I liked being asked what OS would start on power up and if anyone could help that would be awesome.

I'm wondering if it's a small zip I need flash or something?

[Android General] phoenix10:
I think mireks v3 iys only for PRO...
[Android General] dstenc:
I bought used X98 Pro K9C6 which initially comes with dual boot, but previous owner deleted Android partitions and expanded Windows 10 partition to get more space.

I would like to install Android and use it in parallel with Windows.

Is this possible and what are the steps to do that? It's not the problem if this requires reinstalling Windows since currently I don't ave nothing important on it.

Battery on X98 plus dual boot its horrible...

Its running out extremely fast..

Not even 5 hours of working
[Android General] supercowz:
Yes and charging is slow too

Very crappy tablet

[Android General] phoenix10:
Yes that tablet sucks...

Any idea if mirek190 will work out on a rom for that tablet?
[Android General] bluiis48:
Just had my X98 plus dual boot for a few days and I don't agree that it sucks. The 4GB ram makes it plenty fast. Yes the battery does seem to drain fairly quickly but I don't sit using it all day, a lot of the time it is on a stand charging still playing streaming music or video. Screen is great and plenty of brightness available. My problem with it is that windows does not see the SD card (64GB Patriot) and I have tried everything I can think of with no luck, so that is a needed fix, probably by Microsoft. I ran Windows update right away and it seemed to do a complete OS refresh or update leaving behind about 13 GB of data as a previous OS backup. That cleaned out the Chinese apps. I pretty much stick with Android though which runs really well and has no problem with the SD card. I got Playstore loaded by a Google search for Google Play in the stock browser and the first hit was an offer to download and install Google apps which included Play, Gmail etc. Then I installed Nova Launcher and got things looking normal. With Nova it is easy to uninstall the Chinese apps. Drag to top of screen and pick uninstall - simple. Now I have got it the way I like it and overall I am very pleased with this tablet. One other issue of note is that MP4 videos will not play smoothly from an OTG attached USB 3 flash drive but at least that drive is recognized in both Android and Windows. The OTG cable was included. I think the default dock buttons are great, from the left, screenshot; volume down; home;recent apps; volume up and settings.
[Android General] phoenix10:
My main problem its battery .. I bought this product because on reviews they said for very powerful battery..

But that its not seems to be correct..

Mine it's seems to get empty really really fast..

It can work for around 3 hours

Just so few..

I was expecting for a tablet that at least could work for 7 hours..

Any ideas on this?

P. S.

I agree about response and screen
[Android General] bluiis48:
I am going to give mine a test now. Will leave i unplugged and stream MNM radio with covers for a few hours.
[Android General] phoenix10:
Please check it,and let me know
[Android General] bluiis48:
Tablet ran seven hours from full to flat with screen on, bluetooth and wifi on, streaming radio with continually changing album art. Not as CPU intensive as playing video or gaming but pretty good considering screen on all that time. It seems to me that the battery icon is not very accurate as it seems to drop quickly for the first hour or so and the slows down.

Does your Windows 10 recognize SD card ?
[Android General] phoenix10:
I just used it on Android system..

And i can tell you for sure that it don't least 7 hours.. High medium use, can least 4 hours..

I don't know what is wrong with my tablet..

I will try factory reset and start over again to see, what is going on...

Teclast X98 dual boot (A5C8)

Kernel version 3.14.3

And build number v1.05_20160120
[Android General] bluiis48:
I notice that the battery area in settings does not include the usual information about what processes are using power, just a time graph so no help there analyzing your problem. Perhaps there is an app that can help ?
[Android General] phoenix10:
I don't know.. I will try to uninstall everything.. And build from the beginning..
[Android General] bluiis48:
Good luck, when you have time can you boot to Windoze and let me know if the SD card shows up as a drive, that is the only thing that is bugging me about this tablet. Thanks.
[Android General] phoenix10:
Yes of course, i will go tomorrow to buy an sd cart 128GB and i will let you know..
[Android General] yurirui:
Yes. Windows detects the micro sd card and it shows has a second drive..
[Android General] bluiis48:
Thanks for that info, my problem might be that I let Windows update run a complete OS update and lost the drivers in the process although I have removed the Intel SD drivers and let them reinstall hoping to fix it but no luck. No big deal because I mostly use Android. I will experiment some more with a different micro SD and NTFS although then Android won't see it. I have Googled for a solution and find it to be a fairly common issue with Windows 10 on portable devices but no solutions have worked so far.
[Android General] yurirui:
I also made that windows update.. It still works.

If you google "teclast x98 pro drivers" you will find all the drivers needed for windows for our device. :)
[Android General] bluiis48:
Ah sorry, we have kind of hijacked your area, I have the X98 plus dual boot A5C8 which was just released but I might just try the pro divers, different chipset but probably won't hurt anything. If there is enough interest we should probably start a new area for the Plus dual boot A5C8.
[Android General] yurirui:
The file with all the drivers also exists to the Plus version..

Its 145 mb of drivers for your model :)

You should try that first :)
[Android General] bluiis48:
Well it is not the drivers, I inserted an old 8 GB micro SD and Windows saw that just fine so my new 64 GB class 10 is the problem. I will try formatting that card to NTFS and try again (after waiting an hour to back up the music and movies from it ). If that works I just have the problem of getting both OS flavours to read from that card.
[Android General] mdrodge:
I've had this problem with a different dual boot tablet but my x98 is working well with a 128gb UHS 3 lexar x1000. (As long as its fat32 or android won't find it)

I think instead of saying it's a Windows problem we should push for exFat or vFat support in Android this way it should keep Windows happy because card's larger than 32gb should not be used in Fat32.

You will notice when you have this problem with Windows it is only present for cards of over 32gb that are formatted Fat32.
[Android General] bluiis48:
Very much appreciated and I agree with you, Fat 32 introduces the file size limit and is way outdated for the size of removable storage now available. I will continue to experiment, all part of the fun. I see that Paragon has a possible NTFS and exFat Android solution but only for rooted devices and why should the average user need that. I am not inclined to root a brand new tablet unless there are other real benefits, such as the case with my Elephone P8000 for which there is a fantastic custom rom by Eragon. We might push for NTFS/exFat:) support but seems to me that in some cases Android moves backwards such as no installing apps to sd any more and several other "improvements" . I really appreciate all the support here on XDA.
[Android General] phoenix10:

King Root and other Android run apps have very limited success when dealing with the x86 versions of Android.

Most x86 root tools are PC linked.

I just bought this tablet. can't wait when come. Got one question though and can't find answer so far.

There is someone on ebay.uk who is selling this tablet and claims it is with GPS built on... He says there are two models of teclast x98 pro... with and without gps...

Anyone knows anything about it ? If so how to recognise which one is which ?

Or it is not true ?

Alleged X98 pro with GpS is here
[Android General] Blandroid:
Er...........what are you on about mate?

Yes there is - mine was rooted with TWRP installed within hours of me receiving it and Teclast themselves published the rooting method.

That's very dodgy and erroneous info you're giving out there.

Have you SERIOUSLY just spent £265.00 on this tablet??? :eek:

I got mine for £172.85 - I think you've been done even though they are throwing in a case and screen protector.

My Teclast X98 Pro case cost £6.90 and a tempered glass screen protector cost £6.50 - that's a total price of £186.25 and still almost £80.00 less than you're paying.

You could buy another tablet with that money.
[Android General] agaryt:
No... I didn't :) I gave this link just to show there is gps in description...

I paid for my 189£. I'm really confused about this GPS though .

I have been following this thread for a while. I really want to get a dual boot with win10 and 4GB ram.

This tablet seems to offer this chance for a reasonable price, because I know that at the end I won't use win10. I just want for some small extra charge to see how the new operating system behaves with more ram.

Unfortunately I read a lot of complaints here and most are against the android os.

Not getting a good vibe to buy this device.

What do you think?
[Android General] Blandroid:
Ah.........this thread isn't about that device hence my disagreement with your comment.

I think you should make your own decisions and own them - whatever they are.

I could find positive and negative information about every single device on the market but when all is said and done, only by owning one can I decide whether it's a good buy or not.

Some of the criticisms are fair and others are not when they compare this tablet with others costing twice as much or more.

For the price - I think it's bloody brilliant.

How to fix Teclast X98 Pro stuck on BIOS boot issue.

[YOUTUBE]lPqpPNLypEI[/YOUTUBE]
[Android General] bluiis48:
Firstly I apologise again for hijacking this X98 Pro forum. I agree that it is getting confusing with the release of the latest X98 Plus dual boot. I have emailed one of the XDA mods requesting that they consider a new forum and list this device a few days ago but so far no response.

Secondly just my observation on this latest Teclast tablet, (A5C8) Plus dual boot, which I got from GB a couple of weeks ago. So far I (and my Valentine) enjoy it very much. Android is great once the bloatware is removed. I find it plenty fast with the 4gb ram and storage in Android is reasonable combined with a 64gb sd card and a 128gb flash drive via OTG if necessary. Build quality is good and all the apps run fast and smooth. The stock dock buttons are very useful. Nova launcher greatly improves this tablet, as it does with all devices. For me Windows 10 was just a bonus, I wanted the ram and Android 5 primarily. There seems to be a problem with Windows and sd cards over 32gb as I have noted here and others are reporting on other tablet forums but I mostly use Android anyway. For what it is worth I think it is great "bang for the buck" although our weak Canadian buck is detracting from that a little. Just my humble opinion as an owner and everyone's needs and definition of great are different so as quoted above, go with your gut. I also got the bluetooth keyboard/case from GB at a great price and it works really well. And I can confirm there is no GPS but Google's location magic works when on WIFI but this is definitely not a satnav device.
[Android General] Blandroid:
If you want to discuss a tablet other than the one that's the subject of this thread, ie the Teclast X98 Pro, why not just start your own thread?
