[Remix OS for PC] alz_uk:
Hi all, using a Samsung ativ pc pro xe700t1c-a04uk

dual boot: Windows 10 pro / android remix os 3.0

screen 11.6 full hd 1080p

cpu intel core i5-3317u quad core

ram 4gb

gpu intel hd 4000 (128mb dedicated)

hdd 256gb msata ssd

I run remix os 3.0 from a 64GB 544/MBs msata drive in a usb 3.0 enclosure.

Very fast system. Everything working including apps and games and all hardware (touchpen/touchscreen/gyro/accele/light/nfc/otg/gamepad/cam/mic/sound/gfx/etc).

Problem: Its not a major problem but the screen dimming or brightness control dosent work and thats the only problem.

The samsung ative pc pro xe700t1c is by far the most superior convertible laptop/tablet in the world!

Request to developers:

Can you please implement the sim function for internet and calling. Also can you please implement a gamepad configuration menu just like the keyboard config menu?

Thank you very much for all the good stuff remix team.

hi all i thought this turorial might help you guys....

This is a working usb install media creator method for os remix installation and legacy bios circumventing all known errors made for noobs including USING full drive internal storage space etc.

You will be able to use this usb stick for future creation of other usb install media

you will have the choice to also install to hard drive

you will need 2 x usb drives and require drive write speed to be higher than 10 mb/s

the first drive will be the installer drive and the second will be the actual usb drive used to run remix os.

For first drive basic fat 32 install you will need rufus 2.9 usb boot media creator

after creation of the installer drive keep it safe i reccommend you use a 4gb drive $4/£2 off ebay but get something thats got a write speed higher than 10 mb/s or else install will fail!

Format the second drive to your liking ext 4 for example on your pc with minitool partition or acronis disk manager (make sure the drive is formatted as primary and set to active flag)

1. Create fat 32 usb boot disk with first usb drive and rufus 2.9 and the remix os iso

2.make sure after creation you boot up the usb drive and enter remix os then shutdown and boot up again to write the config files

3.make sure you dont boot up the ufi version of the boot up, only use the legacy version (it will have ufi next to boot drive in bios usb boot up list)

4.after you enter remix os go to settings and download the update (ota) (this is the main fix)(if this update fails you cannot proceed further with instructions)(DOSENT APPLY TO REMIX OS 3.0+ INSTALLATION)

5. After ota update reboot and enter remix os again and let android upgrade

6.after this stage is complete your fat32 remix os usb bootable drive is ready to create a usb drive that runs remix os from the drive itself.

7.insert the second drive in a usb hub and boot up the computer with both drives in the computer and boot from the first drive (the usb remix os installer drive)

8.boot up and at the grub boot menu (it should look blue with yellow writing not the black ufi version) press tab and type: INSTALL=1

9. then press enter then you will enter usb media creation menu select scan usb drives and select the second drive (the remix os running drive)

10. It will ask you what you want to format the drive as so select do not format option (becus you already formatted it)

11.then it will ask you to install first grub boot menu say yes

12. Then it will ask you to install second boot grub efi menu say yes

13. Next it will ask you if you want to format the boot partition or something like that say *** no ***

14. Then it will ask you if you want read/write privelage say yes

15. It will proceed to write the remix os onto the drive

16. When finished it will ask to restart (at this point i just switch the pc off by holding power button then restart and boot off the new second drive to run the os from it already upgraded too)

note: If wanting ntfs version of remix os then its a little complicated than this and you will need to use imgtools to increase the data.img file on the ntfs drive after creation with the first usb media creator drive.

The remix os ota update addresses the boot media creation errors. After the ota update all drives created with the grub menu installer boot up as they should but only ufi boot up option hangs!

Hope this helps hit the thanks dont forget so i know how many people were helped by this! enjoy.

I have the ativ pc pro xe700t1c the uk version with intel core i5 quad core and its also a convertible tablet with msata ssd as hdd drive and as you all probbaly know android was created for fast flash memory and linux format os so the best combination is an ssd and ext4 linux file format. I have a 64gb 544 mb/s msata drive in a usb 3.0 enclosure which i use to boot remix os and run it off it. Its perfectly smooth and fast enough 5 secs to boot and the ativ pc pro convertible laptop/tablet is fully compatible hadware software wise, no problems at all. The 5 year old Ativ pc pro gets 119,000+ score in antutu benchmark same as the latest LG G5 with the latest adreno 530 gpu/snapdragon 820 cpu which costs approx £600 now in retail!!! I bought the Ativ pc pro convertible laptop/tablet for only £200 two weeks ago with accessories (ethernet dock etc) worth alone £100 on its own off ebay!!! On top of all that its also a windows 10 pro convertible laptop/tablet system which on its own without android was initially worth £1200 five years ago and still costing approx £500 even now in retail. So what im trying to say here is that for only £200 i get a £600 android 6.0 laptop/tablet and i also get a £500 windows 10 pro laptop tablet ALL IN ONE. Muahahahahahaha haaaaa hahahaha kekekeke.
