Good to see a new release :)

But this forum on XDA, don't you think is messed up a lot? So many repeated questions and answers, polls etc, while the useful guides, tricks, and tools are just lost somewhere. It's very hard to find things in here.

In my opinion there should be a separate question and answer sub-forum, just like many development forums have. And all the announcement, releases, guides, tools, etc should be in a clean sub-forum. This one it'll be easy to know where to look for problem and where to look for solutions.

Thanks :)

Any support for h264 ? Would love to use moonlight app on this
[Remix OS for PC] Stegue:
I uploaded the 2.0.402 version of last week. The version cited here is different ?
[Remix OS for PC] jtrosky:
Stupid question... I'm new to RemixOS (just installed it a week or so ago) - am I supposed to be able to upgrade to this via OTA upgrade? When I try, it just tells me that I'm onthe latest release (2.0.205).

Or are OTA updates not yet implemented?

Thank you!

EDIT: Also, any way to mount Samba filesystems on Remix? THat is one thing that I really need (have a FreeNAS server that I need direct access to, preferably via cifs)..
[Remix OS for PC] jtrosky:
Hmm, I also found that with the new version, I can no longer see my "Windows disk" from within RemixOS (could see and access it fine with previous version). I'll have to look into that... If anyone has any tips, I'm all ears! :)
[Remix OS for PC] flotux:
I also not see the update when I click on Updates. It makes no difference if I choose the stable or the development branch.

Or is it possible to do the upgrade manually? (e.g. extract image files from ISO and replace the existing files?) Which files do I have to replace then?

Thanks

can't get google play to work. Tried everything:

1. Downloaded GMSInstaller.apk

2. Installed APK file and run it.

3. Clicked on "One-click to install Google Services" (this will automatically download google play services)

4. cleared cache of all 3: play, framework and service

5. rebooted, google play didn't work

6. cleared cache again and repeated 5-6 for 2 times

7. tried clearing google play cache only, rebooted and tried to launch google play - still couldn't sign.

8. reinstalled remix os

9. went for the local copy by executing as root:

pm disable com.jide.apppolicy

pm enable com.android.vending

pm enable com.google.android.gms

pm enable com.google.android.gsf

pm enable com.google.android.gsf.login

repeated 4-6 steps afterward, still cannot sign in (and all caches are cleared numerous times).

How should I continue investigation further on?

p.s. successfully installed remix os on asus eeepc 1000h, x86
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
stuck on fullscreen mode for all apps and system, switch locked, no way to get back to windows mode, any help welcome...
[Remix OS for PC] jtrosky:
I ended up updating by booting into Windows and just running the installation application over again - and told it to keep my data. That worked, but so far, I found .205 to work better overall - at least on my system (and old dual-core Pentium PC). Without access to my Windows "C" drive, it really limits the usefulness of RemixOS since I have tons of stuff on that drive.

I have not yet tried to add it manually though... I might try a fresh install of the latest release too...
[Remix OS for PC] flotux:
Hm. I didn't installed it with the Windows installer but manually with the tutorial step 1 "Install Remix OS on HDD [Using Ubuntu]:".

Can I replace the existing files initrd.img, kernel, ramdisk.img and system.img? Will I then loose my apps and settings?
[Remix OS for PC] RenChon:
I have same problem :crying:
[Remix OS for PC] ZiQn3zZ:
To install the Play Store, you have to use the Installer in Remix Central.
[Remix OS for PC] HypoTurtle:
You can replace those files - your apps and settings would be kept as they are in data.img (or data folder/partition)

2- Open your apps and click/tap on "Remix Central"

3- Click/tap on "Google Services Installer" (green ". . ." icon)

4- Inside "Google Services Installer", click/tap on "Install Google Services"

6- Everything should work, now.
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
Okey, doing it "live":

1. launching clean install (2016-07-11 10:26) and made a small break

2. select your language -> English (10:34)

3. user agreement (10:34)

4. wifi setup (10:35)

5. setup completed (10:35)

6. remix central (10:36)

7. reloaded remix central twice (wasn't connected yet 10:36)

8. there's no "google services installer", so clicking on "Google Play Installer" instead (yeah, same green "..." icon, 10:37, clicking on download sign, since clicking on app doesn't work)

9. opening downloads 10:39

10. clicking on downloaded GSM_activ...apk. Google services installer launched , clicking install 10:39

11. Open after installation and clicking "install google services" 10:40

12. downloading / installing; Got a warning: "Installation completed. Please reboot your system to use google services". Pressing "ok" and keeping the rest installer window open(10:41)

13. selected to restart 10:42

14. restarting, selecting remix os to boot up, remis os logo shows up 10:43

15. Remis os booted up, The PC is online. 10:44

17 loading... and boom! "There was a problem communicating with google servers". Try again later. 10:45

18. Clicking on "next" which closed the google play 10:45

Confirming - it DOES NOT work on Asus EeePC 1000H

Extra:

19. Clearing cache of all 3 services:

Google play store - force stop; clear data;

Google play services - force stop; manage space->clear all data->ok; and force stop again (weird);

Google services frame work - force stop; clear data; ok; force stop again (weird)

20. reboot; booting up remix os (10:54)

22. loading... and boom! "There was a problem communicating with google servers". Try again later. 10:55

23. Clicking on "next" which closed the google play 10:55

24 shutting down for the next options to be tried.

Confirming - it DOES NOT work on Asus EeePC 1000H again
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
i would suggest to use your old remix 205 if you had one with playstore working and just replace the files except your data folder/img, the files i mean initdr, kernel, ramdisk and system
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
I didn't have it working before, it's the first time I'm trying Remix :).

But thanks for the tip - will try older version as well.
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
ok then you could try remove your account, softreboot, set your account again and try playstore...
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
there are no accounts added at all...

If I try to add a google account, i get the same message, that it failed to connect to google play services.

and i can't find older versions to try as well. Will try adding random, other then google account:

* adding Appstore account doesnt work

* adding Google account fails with "unable to connect to google services"

* adding quickpic account didn't help - still "unable to connect to google services" (after adding and after removing)
[Remix OS for PC] mahir555:
wifi stopped working !!

while in the previous release it was fine

my chip is broadcom wireless .This is the case for alot of users too.

any fix???
[Remix OS for PC] kretex:
same problem solved by clear cache and data framework, playstore, playservice + remove update if any

reboot and booommm....login to google account succest :D
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
can't do that - there are no accounts entered. It's empty. No initial created at all.

while trying to add the first google account it already fails to sign in and connect to google services.
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
then i think something is wrong with playservices, try installing it again from apkmirror
[Remix OS for PC] pipyakas:
has anyone got root working with this version?
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:

* none opened after installed

* none appeared in settings->applications after installation

will continue after a break...
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
or update from 205 hacked after setting your account just keep your data and replace everything else in your remix folder
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
do you have a link to 205 hacked?

my last tests failed:

fresh install of remix os for the next test, installing pkg's from apkmirror.com in the following order:

* google account manager v. 5.1-1743759

* google services framework v.5.1-1743759

* google play services v. 9.2.56 (270-124593566)

* google play store v.6.8.22.F-all [0] 3046094

* none opened after installed

* none appeared in settings->applications after installation

edit:

had to do previous code to enable services:

pm disable com.jide.apppolicy
pm enable com.android.vending
pm enable com.google.android.gms
pm enable com.google.android.gsf
pm enable com.google.android.gsf.login

rebooted and play failed...

* tried to clear cache after last try - failed

*downgraded current version of google play service to stock and tried dumb luck on launching google play again - failed

*cleared cache just to make sure that no magic happened here and failed on google play again.

*trying different builds of the latest google play service:

*9.2.56 (070-124593566) - fail before and after cache clearing / rebooting; however started to receive strange notification: "Google play services won't run unless you update google play services". Lol, no accounts created (empty)

* 9.2.56 (270-124593566) - was tested already in previous attempts, moving blindly with other versions...

* 9.2.56 (280-124593566) - that would be hell of the fun if worked (TV version)... but as expected after cache clear and reboot - failed, and no account created as well

* 9.2.56 (470-124593566) - parse error, while trying to launch the package (no wonder because it's for android 6+)

* 9.2.56 (480-124593566) - same as before

* 9.2.56 (876-124593566) - cleared cache, reboot - same results (failed to connect...)

* downgrading google play to default version for fun to check how it doesnt work with 9.2.56 (876-124593566) - yep, it still doesn't work

* upgrading play back up, since it's most likely google play services problem...

See thread for "Systemless Root"
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
for the 205 link just check the thread in remixos for pc...
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
I've tested remix hacked version 205 and google kinda worked with some bugs (failed to download first application). But hey... atleast it didn't get stuck on signing in!

I gave it another reboot and it started to download and install applicaitons :). Cheers!
[Remix OS for PC] jtrosky:
What am I missing here? When I installed .205, it was pre-rooted (downloaded directly from the Remix site). I keep seeing people asking about how to root, etc?
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
I'm not sure... but when I've installed original Remix OS and typed "su" in terminal - I was allowed to gain root. So IMHO the original Remix OS is already prerooted, isn't it?
[Remix OS for PC] jtrosky:
Yeah, that's my point - it's already pre-rooted, so I don't understand what people are trying to root it (and having issues!). :)
[Remix OS for PC] SmilingMe:
Maybe they don't know what "rooted" means :). But once I compare 205 Hacked version with original, I can clearly say, that Google play doesn't work for me with the latest Remix OS release, while it does with 205 hacked version... So they did some changes that mess stuff up... (for my PC case: asus eeepc 1000h)
[Remix OS for PC] wizmart:
have you tried a manual update to 403 just replacing your 205 system, initdr, ramdisk, kernel from an original 403 install but keeping your 205 data..?

Still can't get Remix to boot on my Dell Inspiron 5150.

However, of all the releases so far (hacked and official). this is the only one that has given a clear message. I usually can't boot the nVidea graphics.

intel_rapl: driver does not support cpu family 15 model 2

Processor: Mobile Intel Pentium 4 2.80GHz

Family, Model, Stepping: 15, 2, 9 (Pentium 4)

I'm wondering if this is related to the SS3 instruction set, as the only version of Android I could get to run was an early version of Android x86 patched for SS3 running in generic vga mode.

Wow i managed for the first time to make this one work on my old and ancient PC, ASUS P5N-MX with NVIDEA GeForce 7050 / nForce 610i chipset.

I had to edit the "menu.lst" file on the end of kernel line at the Remix Os folder from windows by adding the "nouveau.modeset=0"

Remix Os boots now fine and looks like everything works, internet, sound keyboard mouse etc.

The only problem am facing is the low resolution and i cant change it is like a default one. Any help with this as from the settings within Remix Os the change resolution doesnt show up? Is there any other line i can add or edit to increase the resolution !?

Thnx

[Remix OS for PC] Dior DNA:
I am running 2.0.402 32bit on EeePC 1000H and I see on boot something like:

"intel_rapl no support for processor family 2 model 28"

The RemixOS GUI is terribly slow as compared to 2.0.205. CPU usage high but eventually drops.

GUI remains slow (even mouse moves with delay).

RemixOS Launcher reboots frequently (but Linux stays up)

Is there a correlation with the "no support"?

Does this ring any bell?

Let me know how I can help troubleshoot.

Google Play is not working for me on this version.

I've installed 2.0.403, and then Google Apps with the Google Services Installer.

But then installations within Google Play just fail (including updates to Chrome)

I've seen the download running multiple times one after another.

And 'Installation' just running on without completion, just consuming CPU.

It's strange, because on the June version, it just works.

[Remix OS for PC] longjohn41:
Not yet. If they create an S3 (instruction set) patch (or driver) for these mobility cpu's as was done in one of the early Android x86 versions then that should help. But it's probably something they have to compile into the os, but there doesn't seem to be much priority for them focus on old hardware yet. Maybe it will happen when they get more people helping with development.

Thanks for the hard job. This is my test results against my old laptop Aspire 5610Z (Intel Core Duo T2250 / 1.73 GHz of 32 bits, intel graphics "Mobile Intel 945GM Express" & upgraded to 2GB RAM):

- Wifi works.

- Now I can see uncorrupted the Kubuntu (linux) partition.

- Is weird the current setup (Win8.1, Kubuntu and RemixOS) to boot. in Grub2 I have to enter to WIndows 8 option, then in the Win8 boot menu select RemixOS and in the new reboot in Grub2 select again Windows 8 option to run RemixOS. If RemixOS could be added automatically to Grub2 instead of the Windows Boot manager...

- Apps in landspace (Tablet mode) still doesn't work unless you usee the full screen mode. I use the default SO options so the tablet mode should be used when you resize the window...

- Youtube and other YT apps doesn't reproduce video.

- MX player doesn't work, I have to use VLC.

- The previous RemixOS build worked "Easy Audio Recorder" now it doesn't.

- Camera. It doesn't. I tried "Open Camera" (Open Source, free app) and I can take photos but if I preview photos then the Camera app will not work until the next reboot.
[Remix OS for PC] ranaxda200:
Same problem for the YT app in my pc BTW YT in chrome desktop mode is perfect (though audio not good). As for MX player uninstall the default one and reinstall the latest one from playstore, also download the all-in-all codec from xda to decode in MX player to support ac3 codec.
