[Official Version] Chuwi HiBook Bios + Android + Windows download

And this was posted by rck on the forum, all kudos to him.

It is possible to re-install android without losing windows. You need Intel's Flash Tool Lite. I used 64bit win 10.

1) Power on the HiBook while holding volume up and volume down. You should get the Chuwi logo and the words "DNX FASTBOOT MODE.."

2) Windows on my machine didn't use the right driver. I had to manually change the "Intel Android AD" device driver to "Android Composite ADB Interface"

3) Once the driver was changed, the intel flash tool recognized the HiBook

4) Browse to where you extracted the HiBook Android.rar file. 7zip works great for extraction

5) Choose "update" in the configuration drop box.

6) Start the flash. For me, it got do 25% and stopped. The HiBook rebooted to the normal android recovery

7) Windows again got the driver wrong. The HiBook shows up as a different device, so I had to again manually select the "Android Composite ADB Interface"

8) I power cycled the HiBook,entering DNX boot and restarted the flash. This time it worked.

My HiBook now boots both windows and android.

Some other tidbits:

1) Press ESC or DEL to enter the BIOS at the CHUWI splash screen

2) Press F7 to get a boot device selection menu

3) The left and right arrows, followed by enter can select windows or android instead of the volume rocker

Hi,

The HiBook is a dualboot tablet. If you don't need the Android partition, you can delete it. But the windows partition can't be delete.

multitasking fix for android

I gambled on such a tablet too, so far it is ok. Large gap between glass and lcd, touchscreen is not very accurate, which is irritating often in windows. The performance is bit low for regular windows use I think (but it is enough to substitute my laptop on a few occasions). Performance is much better in Android, the only problem is multitasking: despite 4GBs of ram, apps are killed really fast because the system wide process limit is set very low. This can be changed on a rooted machine fortunately.

1. So first root your tablet ( http://xdaforums.com/android/general/root-chuwi-hibook-kostyamat-t3368642).

2. Then copy ProcessLimit.apk to /system/priv-app, then chmod it to 644 and reboot.

3. Launch ProcessLimit app, set background process limit to 50 at least. (I use 70)

The processlimit app was written by Florian Scheibner (https://github.com/flode/SetAndroidProcessLimit), so credits to him. I only added a few lines to make it run on Hibook.
[Device Reviews and Information] javikiller:
I have the Hibook PRO version. The worst thing is not performance on multitasking, the worst thing is the performance of everything it does. In windows or android. It's too slow and laggy. I remembered Teclast X98 Air 3G with Mirek Rom more faster than this tablet. And has less Ram, and a little worse chipset. I think there's a optimization problem but I don't know where: on firmware, on android or on windows. Also I should say that connecting it to a 1080p monitor and disabling the tablet monitor works faster or at least less laggy than the tablet with its screen at 1080p.

I think this tablet could be great if some developer wanted to work on it, like Mirek with teclast X98. But for now this tablet is very frustrating.
[Device Reviews and Information] miniuser123:
Well the z8300 is probably not good enough for the screen resolution of pro. Android is fast on my Hibook. Loads/switches apps quickly, scrolls fairly smoothly. Windows is a different story, it is not very good for web browsing I think, unless you have a lot of spare time. Edge browser scrolls smoothly but loads pages 30-50% slower than Chrome, while in Chrome scrolling is very laggy on more complex pages and a bit slower in general than the Android version. However it will be good enough for occasional Word/Excel/Access or even Eclipse work. I don't play games so I have no idea how it performs in 3d. Maybe the partition layout is not optimal for me, more space for Android would have been better.

update: hibook only has 1066 mhz ram, vs. 1600 mhz in some other z8300 devices....
[Device Reviews and Information] miniuser123:
If you want to have a bit of extra performance especially in windows you can try setting memory frequency to 1600 mhz in BIOS. Switch on DVFS on the same page to avoid reboots during sleep. Do it at your own risk of course!

Chrome is pretty smooth after this change.
[Device Reviews and Information] javikiller:
After switching the memory frequency to 1600 I can say I am more happy with the tablet. At least it's similar to X98 in speed and smoothness of the ui. Thank you!
[Device Reviews and Information] flowin_through:
Does this apply to chuwi hibook pro, too?

I am really disappointed by the memory use and lag of this tablet. It never goes up from 1GB occupied ram! And leaves 3GB free! It's as if it has a memory limitation like internal storage partitions somehow..

It also lags in everything. I have chuwi hi8 pro and it is so far from such behavior..

For future reference, chmod it to 644 means set permissions of file to rw- r-- r-- (it`s a standard precedure but not for all of us :) )

I confirm the above procedure works for chuwi hibook pro 2560x1600 also.

SD card on chuwi hibook

Strange thing is a lot of users and myself experience no problems for a couple of weeks and than suddenly the sd-card stops being recognized, while the cards are recognized in other devices. Very strange, looks like the sd card reader firmware bricked... efi bios problem I think as the dual boot bios of these tablets is a total MESS !

As I once saw in chuwi forum for Chuwi hi8 pro, they said it is not possible. You can delete the Windows, but the partitions will not merge all together, you will just void Windows. I don`t know if something else is valid now

Hi,

does anyone know if is it possible to have a landscape bios view ?

(Or if any bios mod exist to switch to landscape. ? )

Becaus when the hibook is docked to his keyboard, the screen stay on portrait in the bios, and it's not very easy =D
[Device Reviews and Information] tdvolland:
Have I understood correctly, that on the dual-boot Chuwi HI 10 plus it is not possible to get rid off the Win10?

Is it then at least possible to use some kind of partition manager to reduce the Win10 partition size and increase the android partition?

Thanks

4. Finished Installing Rom

5. 7 mins. Total

6. 3 Mins to complete install of Rom.

Note**** Every time it would stick on Big Red so after 1-3 mins by your choice i pulled battery and replaced reboot and it started all the updates of the install and finished*******

I hope this will be helpful

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
This rom takes a little longer to boot the first time and a little longer on reboot. Make sure to do full wipe and do not restore any system data at all. Remember this is an S6 rom with S6 apps and they don't like S5 data restored to them. If any hangups on lockscreen a reboot will fix. Also if having lock screen issues try disabling gestures and edge screen features.

This works with the Alliance Framework out of the box! Stock keyboard didn't work, but I copied secime from AllianceROM's s6 zip and it worked perfectly! I'm going to test to see if I can find more bugs. Tried dark version, flashing light now then I'm going to see how it interacts with the s6 theme engine. Perhaps all backs black could be replacement for black glass? Totally did not exp ed ct this to work. I know you're probably having fun with AOSP stuff, but this is awesome for people like me with Toshiba Emmc. There quite possibly are other bugs--wanna take a look?

Hello guys!

I flashed Marshmallow for the K4 note from http://www.techolite.com/35528/lenovo-k4-note-marshmallow-6-0-update-official.html and it works smoothly with some bugs here and there.

Okay so coming to the bootloader unlock part,

After flashing Marshmallow, which definitely works,

Enable Developer Options in the Setting by tapping on 'Build Number' under About Phone in settings in Device Information

Then go back

Now you'll see a new option called 'Developer Options'

Click on it

Check for 'Enable OEM Unlock'

then move the switch to 'ON'

Enable USB Debugging

Connect your device to the PC

then open command prompt

navigate to adb(You need adb and fastboot)

now under command prompt type 'adb reboot-bootloader'

now your phone will reboot to Fastboot Mode

Now in CMD type 'fastboot OEM Unlock'

then on your device,

Press the 'Volume UP button'

your device will be formatted and will reboot to fastboot again.

Press and hold the Power button and it will shut down and then press and hold again and your device will start

NOTE:-This Bootloader unlock must be performed by advanced users, Also the Marshmallow ROM can't be rooted using kingroot :D Thats the only downside.. But still..

I tested this 'RIGHT NOW' and just typed this thread in case a developer can now create ROMs and stuff.

This is my first 'Development Related thread' so if this isn't the right place to place it, please move it if necessary :D

Do press THANKS if this helped you in any way.
