The installer will install your version of x86 to the drive you select

Assuming your windows ntsf installation is on drive C:, when you select Drive C as your x86 installation location, it will install to folder named Android OS to the root of your C drive. If you select a different drive(or partition), it will install there instead. It will create the grub2 EFI entry for you to the install directory of your choosing.

I find it easiest to install it to my windows NTFS (c:) because this allows easy update and access from within Windows. For example, you can replace the image files within the folder without having to reinstall should you mess something up within Android, or you can easily do future upgrades by unpacking the x86.img/.iso and moving and replacing the files in the installation directory.

Also allows you to rename the install directory(for example, I change Android OS to BlissOS for my bliss install, and then modify grub.cfg to reflect the directory name change) and then I can use the installer again for another variant of x86, and it will then install clean again to the now free Android OS folder

Smooth~ experience

I'm reply to you in Android. I'm using Asus X205TA and everything seems to work fine for now, no freeze. Still, the touchpad only recognize one finger so no scroll.

I went to android-x86 project site but only found ISO not .img file like android 5.1. So is there any other way to upgrade the OS to Marshmallow??? My laptop CPU is 32 bit, UEFI.

This tool has not seen an update for quite some time.

There is a modified version which was edited to be compatible with Nougat builds(change in the file structure between Android versions)

From your log it looks like it is failing to extract system.img from the system.sfs

Try the newer installer. Should fix for you.

I was criticized once before for pointing someone to a working version of this tool(which the modified version was approved by the original dev of this tool) so I will not link to it here. It will be a few pages back. Or in the Bliss-x86 Project thread in the installation instructions area

[Android Software Development] Predatux:
Hello, everybody. I didn't know about this project...

I tried installing the latest version of Phoenix OS based on Nougat in my Surface Pro 4.

The installation right, no problem.

When you start Android, the black screen with the static cursor on top left remains. I've tried all the boot options (nomodeset and vesa) none of them work.

Any suggestions?

As a suggestion, I would like to ask you for add compatibility with "Clover Bootloader", since it is the one I use in the Surface, and it doesn't recognize Android, and a Linux versión.

Greetings and thanks
[Android Software Development] electrikjesus:
I don't understand why we would go out of our way to make Clover support Android-x86? Isn't that a Clover issue?
[Android Software Development] Predatux:
Really I don't know, but would be good for all, I think.

Regards
[Android Software Development] louisr21:
good, excellent your project. to start with this project in the search for solutions for the installation of Android x86 ... perform the whole process by installing it by boot, which could never be operated because when you get to the menu choose the partition where you want to install Android, the keyboard stops the pc stops working. Try setting up the bios and you will never get it working in that installation menu.

now when using android x86 installer v2.4 when starting it tells me that the requirements are not met. and he sends me to check the .txt to save on local disk "C:"

when entering and reading the registry I see that in the line of "system firmware" it says: "other"

in spite of that, try to select the iso image but do not allow it.

P.S. I use google translator to communicate with you.

[Android Software Development] The VoidKing:
Sadly it doesent work on my Device. (Surface Pro 2017)

Good evening

I followed the Instruktions on the post and the installer said that it worked. But as i tried to reboot into the Android mode, my surface just reeboted into Windows 10.

But it seems a pretty cool Projekt and hopfully some people can help me to fix my issue.
[Android Software Development] ElfinJNoty:
It tells you the error just before it reverts the install

If using this installer, there is no need to create any fat32 partition. Just try to install to the root of your C: drive to test

It creates the proper directory and point grub to it. This installs within windows, allowing for easy access to the .img files

The OS itself requires about 4gb of space, and then whatever you set your data.img size to.

I test by doing an 8gb data.img, + the 4gb for OS. So make sure there is 12gb+ of space(using my settings mentioned) and shouldn't have a problem

---------- Post added at 11:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

This version of the installer is deprecated.... Does not support Android Nougat and up.

If you search XDA for "Bliss OS x86" or Google "Bliss OS XDA" you will find the thread for Bliss OS where dev electrikjesus has an updated version we've been using since Nougat, is patched to support a change in Android-x86 project where the /EFI/boot location is slightly different than previous Android versions.

I REPEAT: this UEFI Installer in the OP is deprecated!

Cannot be used with any x86 .iso that is nougat or newer

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 PM ----------

This error is because there is something occupying the EFI that is causing conflict. Use the "Uninstall Android" button first, then attempt to reinstall

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------

I'm not the OP, but why? Phoenix has it's own installer.

Phoenix also has been caught stealing from Team Bliss's open source. Which is why we took our public repo down temporarily.

They suck. But enjoy them kanging stuff if ya want. Good luck with that :svetius:

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 PM ----------

Did you go into your devices bios/UEFI and set the default boot option to grub bootloader or "AndroidOS" instead of the Windows Boot Manager?

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 PM ----------

The OP has not been active in this thread for some time and has not been easy to get a hold of in general.

This version of the tool is deprecated.

Read my other responses to locate an updated version that works better.

Edit. Flash drive was formatted to fat32
[Android Software Development] ExtremeGTX:
1) Please Send me the installation log so i can fix the issue

BTW, The installer will allow MaxUserData = (total free space - 2GB)

2 and 3) Please google the problem or contact android-x86 team.

Thanks for testing the installer and your feedback :)

rtc is (Real-time clock) driver which has nothing to do with Graphics problem, if i found a solution i will contact you for testing but it's better to start new thread for graphics issue or contact android-x86 team.

SDCard installation is not supported now, I will contact you to test this feature when it becomes supported

Installation went fine (with both .img and .iso), and androidos was added to boot manager, however it just rebooted to windows and androidOS entry was removed from windows boot manager.

I think problem is due to secure boot. I'll see if I can disable it and try again - but is there anyeay to readd the boot manager entry without reinstalling?
