[MENTION=3675849]ExtremeGTX[/MENTION] I've successfully installed and ran Android-x86, RemixOS and PhoenixOS builds using your app. It is awesome, but lacks just one thing - it works only for a single installation. Could you please add multiboot - possibility to install a number of Android installations? I'd like to have Windows, RemixOS and PhoenixOS simultaniously on my PC, but that can't be done with your app exclusively - right now I have to use other methods.

FYI, device I use is Asus T100TA.
[Android Software Development] C-Leung:
Hi, I would like to try PhoenixOS on my thinkpad8. But the file I downloaded from official website is a .exe file instead of .iso file. How can you install it by this x86 installer?

Thanks!
[Android Software Development] Vioner:
I don't know about the installer - I couldn't install it on my Asus T100TA with the official installer (probably because of the 32bit UEFI).

Here you have the .iso file: https://yadi.sk/d/DsmkTFMhrKSpk or here https://pan.baidu.com/share/link?uk=3696200278&shareid=1442534678&third=4&adapt=pc&fr=ftw :)

yes, but i delete it, now i want to install android again in my device
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
I see,I am not sure if it is possible,and it will probably need the same android as the one it had...
[Android Software Development] C-Leung:
Thanks. This iso works with x86 installer. Just my machine problem: no sound and rotation fail, same as remix...

Venue 8 Pro installation/boot attempt failed

Tried installing with Venue 8 Pro 5000 series, Z3740D processor, 32GB model.

Installation worked, created a 6GB drive.

Rebooted using Shift-Restart, and chose Android OS. GRUB shows up and the first option selects itself after 10s, and it goes to a blank screen. Backlight is on, but only a few console lines appear after GRUB.

I've attached the install log, though that didn't seem to be the issue. Is there another log file that I should be looking for? Tried to attach video of it booting, but I'm a new user and can't do that yet.

Thanks for all of your work!

I try to use this tool on my Acer Iconia w3-810 tablet. When I launch this tool it says CPU architecture is not supported.

The tablet uses Atom Z2760 SoC. Why it is not supported?

Thanks,

[Android Software Development] MagicAndre1981:
you need to connect an external Monitor via the mini HDMI port. But Android x86 freezes for me after running it for several minutes. I'll try different versions now.

try included installer with latest 32bit remix .
[Android Software Development] alwayssunil:
[MENTION=6954171]tailslol[/MENTION] Thanks for your replay. The problem is not with the image files, it's with the installer it self. It doesn't allow me to select the image, when I checked the log it say that CPU architecture is not supported.

I'm using the latest version of the installer.

Thanks in Advance,

Shiva.
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
I mean the latest official installer. Not the one on xda.

And what is your hardware?
[Android Software Development] alwayssunil:
I tired that also, it loads and just gives me blank screens with a cursor on the top left corner.

My hardware is :

CPU : Intel Atom z2760 processor with 2GB RAM and with Intel graphics card.
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
I see.then you can burn image on a cd or use unetbootin to make a boot device.

Then you can use it as a live or install it on your hard drive using the VM ware tutorial.

Note your device is 32 bits only so you can only use the remix os 32 bit installer and 32 bit image.

Not the 64 bit one.

android-x86_64-6.0-rc1.iso :(

[Android Software Development] soraxx:
That's because grub.cfg on that ISO is on \boot\grub instead of \efi\boot

Yes this is not for Android 6 rc1.

It is for remix and older.

Thank you so much. I extracted the Android 6.0 iso, made a copy of grub.cfg and put it in \efi\boot, and repackaged it with PowerISO. Worked like a charm!

Unable to get android working on nextbook flexx10

i have been unsuccessful in booting android with this installer. I am enclosing logs for android 4.4.3, 5.1 and remix OS.

(This is when install on c:/ drive)

in all cases, the install is fine but get a black screen with "Android OS boot failed" message.

the default remix installer gives this error:

error: no such device: /RemixOS/kernel.

error: file '/RemixOS/kernel' not found.

error: you need to load the kernel first.

I have tried installing on a separate partition but same results as above.

furthermore, i have created a live USB for 6.0 and did manage to install it onto a 10G ext4 partition (same as d: for the above experiments)

at the end, i could run android but when i reboot, i didnt see an entry to reboot though..

any help is appreciated.

thanks

Bot or spam? This info doesn't belong on a thread for a UEFI dual-boot installer for Windows. But, to help anyone who needs it, to get newer versions of Android (6.0 and Remix) running with the installer, you have to extract the ISO with WinRAR and put a copy of grub.cfg in \efi\boot from \boot\grub.

Then, download PowerISO (you will need the full version, or a cracked version, as it doesn't support sizes above 300 MB) and build a new ISO.
[Android Software Development] Robo-rooter:
No bud, I'm not a bot. I installed Android-x86 6.0 on my Dell laptop. It's now part of my multi-boot setup. It's working fine. I added it to Grub (the Linux boot manager) with the instructions above. I did not use the utility at the beginning of this thread and I didn't use Windows. I did it all through Linux Ubuntu. All you need is the Android-x86 6.0 ISO, the Linux utility UNetbootin (similar to Windows Rufus) in Linux to make a bootable USB install drive from the ISO and then a few Linux commands in Ubuntu to make Android-x86 6.0 appear in Grub.

I'm running a multi-boot configuration on my Dell 5737 laptop. Windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04, Cub Linux and Android-x86. All on my Crucial BX-200 ssd hard drive partitioned with UEFI.

If you only have Windows 8, 8.1 or 10 on you pc, here are instructions on how to install Ubuntu (or Linux Mint) along side Windows 10 without erasing your hard disk. After Ubuntu is installed, adding Arndroid-x86 is easy: (after all, under the hood Android-x86 is really Linux).

Cub Linux and Ubuntu?

Cub Linux being just a reskined Ubuntu to look like chrome,you basically have 2 times the same Linux...

If you want a real chrome os.

Try cloud ready from never ware.

Or chromium os by arnoldthebat.
[Android Software Development] Robo-rooter:
I've got CloudReady on an older Dell 1545 laptop. Works good. It's just more tricky to install on an existing Windows 10, Ubuntu hard disk. I didn't want to start over on my Dell 5737, so I installed Cub Linux to play with for now.

My goal was to put 4 operating systems on my Dell laptop, Windows 10, Ubuntu 16.04 (with Cinnamon 3.0 desktop sideloaded), Cub Linux (Chromebook clone) and finally Android-x86.

At boot time all are accessable from the Linux Grub boot manager. Windows, Ubuntu and Cub all boot in about 15 seconds. Android-x86 boots in about 20 or 25 seconds.

I've got Android-x86 running a lot of TV channel apps like Discovery GO, History Channel, etc.

Overall with 4 operating systems the laptop is a real multi-media machine.
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
they are a bit late but it is same thing basically,and yes dualboot chrome os is kinda hard.if you do not have uefi and a correct set up on your hard drive .

just because it does not have a regular installer.
[Android Software Development] Robo-rooter:
Anyway, running Android-x86 on a 17 inch laptop is a whole different experience than running it on an 8 inch tablet as I did previously. It was worth the effort to get it running.
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
true,i wonder how it will be when android n will be viable on x86

i am thinking it will be awesome.

but it wont be until next year.

or maybe someone will be able to port the android and playstore for chrome on chromium os for pc.

that will be a killer.

Google is bringint Play to ChromeOS

Google is doing exactly that. Both of my parents have Chromebooks and I can't wait for this feature to be implemented!

http://www.businessinsider.com/google-brings-play-store-to-chrome-os-2016-5
[Android Software Development] tailslol:
No not really...

You see the play store part will be closed sources and chromebook hardware exclusive.

This mean it will not be in chromium open source project.

And it will not be in chrome books older than 2 years.

So no Google is doing it but only to sell more hardware.

And it will not be on pc.

problem with android logo booting

I finally booted into android, but i'm now stuck with the Android logo freeze and cannot access anything. I am using HP stream 7. Anyone using the same device as mine have the same problem ?...

[Android Software Development] akio0504:
Hi,

After i tried to boot several times again, it finally jumped into the Android OS but it's a little bit laggy. After 10 minutes, it freezes and i have to restart and boot into the android again. The touchscreen seems not stable, sometime it freezes. I don't know, i also tried to use Remix OS, but maybe the 1 GB Ram cannot handle it very well.
[Android Software Development] midi_1996:
Hi, I would like to report a problem, as the UEFI Installer tried to find grub.cfg under /efi/boot/ while lately (actually way back to the 5.x versions) the grub.cfg is now located under /boot/, it fails and removes all the files, so maybe if you could add a automated scan to grub.cfg and use it, or maybe also add a prompt to either delete the files (or keep them, that also applies to the UEFI boot entry you make ) would be very welcomed. Thanks for this software.

Hmm, you tool worked for 90%

who 90% well, I finally found a version of android that would still boot via UEFI 32bits (android x64 5.1)

It copied the files to the C drive for booting, yet I do not have the selection to state i want to boot from it.. If i open the hidden drive on the B-drive, I do see there has been a folder been made named android and it has a grubia32.efi file in it..

How to get the windows loader to show the android loader in the boot list so I can use remixOS?

I want to try Remix-OS on a cherry trail tablet (linx vision 7), but it only has a 32bit UEFI, no legacy support. After a lot of searching and chatting I found this tool. Going to give it a try tonight. I've been under the impression that a generally a 32bit uefi can't boot a 64 bit OS, even if the arch of the device is 64bit. I also read grub is able to boot either from its 32bit version? Is this true? Additionally, I see that this tool is capable of dual boot configs, is it possible to use it to completely replace windows after verifying everything works?

Adding Android option to Windows Boot Manager is not supported from Windows side. if you talk about the ease of booting to android i think we can have two options.

- Desktop shortcut to reboot to Android

- Set GRUB as default Bootloader

Excuse me, can you explain your recommendation please .. what is that 8100MB and 6GB ??

Thanks for attaching logs :)

I compared the log with the one attached by "user: anthonythangaraj" and you are using same android image, same CPU, same firmware version

I think there is another factor i'm not aware of .

Can you please post any pics, and tell me if you reach a black screen with two options "Android" and "Windows" ? can you take a pic of it ?
[Android Software Development] VincenzoDM123:
If you can add Desktop shortcut to reboot for android in the next update, would be wonderful.

I reccomend for who have a SSD 32GB (for example) create a partition of 8100MB for set in the software 6GB of User Data

Can't get it going :( Keeps saying UEFI INIT failed. Asus T100ta, Windows 10 x86, .net comes with 10, trying to install the x86_64 5.1 img. Secure boot disabled. Any ideas on whats wrong?
[Android Software Development] ExtremeGTX:
ok ranajblas you can see in the second pic "Detecting android x86 ...." then you have successfully installed Android but there are a problem with GPU support which is something not related to my installer it's related to Android-x86 team. another user also reported a black screen so i will check if i can find a workaround for this issue.

If you want to try running android on your device without installation you may do the following:

1. format USB Flash drive as FAT32

2. Extract All file of android .img file to the ROOT of USB Drive, So you have that EFI folder directly on the root of flash disk

3. restart and boot from usb then select "Live" option

try it and tell me what you got

Thanks :)

Please post logs at "C:\AndroidInstall_XXX.log" and "C:\UEFIdbg.log" so i can help you
[Android Software Development] heat22:
One important thing about my install. I have a clean windows 10 x86 installed from USB, not the original partition layout and OS. Do you think I need to re-install Windows using a UEFI bootable flash drive to get this working?

I think you should contact android-x86 team as they are the developers of the System, I'm developer of the installer only.

I think the problems comes from Graphics drivers built into Android.
