HDMI Issues

Sound

- sound is not working through HDMI.

Resolution

- Remix OS doesn't detect the TV's resolution properly, and does not have a resolution settings.

Hi guys! I have encountered these issues on my Intel Compute Stick (STCK1A32WFC), I also found some users who use the same device with the same specs as mine that has experienced also these issue. I am currently running on Remix OS 32 bit version 3.0.207. I am looking forward for a fix to these issues, as it decreases my user experience.

[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] danjac:
hi folks, thanks to [MENTION=2195656]joesnose[/MENTION] we can now enter the yoga book's bios/uefi. you might say 'thank you' to him for this!!!

more about his tries can be found here: https://xdaforums.com/thi...ncept-t3565366

to do so just follow the following steps:

1. start adb shell

2. type the following commands

(alternatively you can also enter the commands in TWRP's terminal)

mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars

printf "\x07\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00" > /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/OsIndications-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c

reboot

!!!as always, be very careful what you do in the bios - the chance for creating a stylish and expensive chopping board is quite high!!! :D

unfortunately, it seems like you always have to type those commands to enter the bios.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
About entering the bios. On my YT3P after entering this command just once I am then able to boot bios from twrp reboot screen. This is not working for you danjac?

Also if you make the changes in the bios to get usb keyboard working you can also disable fast boot which allows you to press f7 at boot which allows entry to bios. gets you to boot device selection and pressing esc will take you to other bios options.

And everyone should give thanks to [MENTION=4477649]danjac[/MENTION] for trying this on the yogabook.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
really tnx [MENTION=4477649]danjac[/MENTION] :) , helpful i will try this later

how ever did you flash twrp as your default recovey?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] razielvamp:
mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars

printf "\x07\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\ x00" > /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/OsIndications-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c

reboot

Not working for me (Yoga book android WiFi only).

What means printf symbols? Unicode characters? If yes, space between "\x00\ x00" is needed?

I tried to insert commands three times, and tried to use "Reboot BIOS" in TWRP. No profit. Device booting in android.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
try entering commands from adb shell with tablet on android.

Then on your pc copy and paste

printf "\x07\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\ x00" > /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/OsIndications-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] danjac:
no 'space'!!!!

there is/was one in the original thread (see the last x00) ...so it also was the reason why it didn't work for me from adb shell. presumably i just ignored the space when typing it manually in twrp...

now it also works from pc/adb...

I corrected the OP! thanks for reporting back!
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] razielvamp:
Ok. I get BIOS but OTG keyboard not working. Halo keyboard too.

I can use only vol up, vol down and power buttons. But I need "ESC" button too, in other case I can not escape submenus.

I got!

long press VolUP = return.

But still do not understand how select usb device in boot order. It seems like BIOS not support OTG function, so how can I change for boot from USB drive when it not detected?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
Device manager......

System setup........

android.......

Uefi secure BOOT=disable.

South cluster configuration.......

Usb configuration.....

default drd CONFIG=hostmode

Usb VBUS=on.

that's it save changes and exit. Next time you boot to bios you can use keyboard connected via otg to use bios. You can also select next boot device in bios boot manager.

If you want to be able to interupt boot process to select boot device also disable fast boot under boot category in bios . This will mean you get a black screen with progress bar on power on but allows use f7 to select boot device.

After booting another os from usb it often takes 3 boots to get back to android, don't panic.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:
Hello Guys and Girls,

Sorry for my english, which is not my mother tongue.

Just to say that after reading a lot in XDA folder (thanks to the people who provided how to root/use TWRP and access Bios)

I managed to boot from USB key but I have a acpi-bios-error ( no matter what I changed in the bios related to acpi) while intalling windows 10 32/64 bits.

I would like to know if someone met this issue and solved it somehow ?

By any chance, is there someone (who was able to boot to W10) who can tell which software they use to make their usb bootable ?

I gave up for the moment (I spent too much time on it, need to rest lol)

Thank you for reading my post,
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
With windows I always get the acpi bios error! I have tried many bios options but obviously with caution. Always the error. I keep trying with my "win to go" usb stick.

This error is also quite generic so its hard to know what is causing it.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:
Many Thanks for the answer,

I guess this will be a blocking issue for everyone.

I "heard" on other forums that we might need to upgrade the bios, I don't think it will be possible from Android side.

(I saw there is a tool on Lenovo support site)
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
Or possibly the current bios needs dumping and editing to allow "hidden options". I did see some pics during searching of a similar cherry view bios but there was a "select os" option that does not show in mine.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:
Wooh, maybe we are almost there !

I guess the time has come to wait and see....

---------- Post added 25th April 2017 at 12:09 AM ---------- Previous post was 24th April 2017 at 11:56 PM ----------

Just a check, did you go under system-setup >> south cluster configuration >> SCC configuration >> SCC eMMC Support & SCC SD Card Support (internal and SDcard)

here we can set ACPI mode/PCI Mode or disable

I'm afraid that it will remove android, but it might be a key issue.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
Sorry missed your post there.

I have tried many things in bios so its hard to remember them all. I think i tried pci mode and also disabled.

Also it might be good if people post what they are trying which could be then added to the first post.

And, i was changing one option at a time then reverting the changes after failed boot, there is a possibility that multiple changes are needed.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:
No worries,

Are we agreed that if the installation succeed, it will remove android, right ?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
agreed.

Like I said I was mostly trying with my "win to go" usb drive. That is a complete win 10 os on a usb stick, boots just fine on other pc's I have.

I would not recommend full install at the moment for two reasons. 1) who knows what kind of driver issues/problems there will be. 2) would returning to android work if whole device was overwritten, losing bootloader etc.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:
Alright, thank for clearing this up.

I guess that for the moment, we need to set the issue with ACPI, I will keep looking to other topics and forums here and there.

If I found anything, I will post it here.

Many thanks for your answers.

Good morning, has anyone tried doing this but with any linux distro? i'm not sure which one is compatible with our device :(
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
I have booted several versions of linux and android x86 on my yogatab3pro.

Would like to hear your findings.

on yt3p all need the nomodeset flag in order to boot. This of course means no hardware accelleration.

for me no touch , no sound and no hardware accelleration but they will boot.

Oh and there is some cherrytrail targeted distros. One by linuxium and another called xjubutab.

first of all need some one with yoga book *windows* , he will boot to his bios and we will put the *Exact* same settings

and then we will try to boot windows and try :)

how to boot via usb?, just change the order and then it will boot from usb forever ? , if i disconnect it , it will boot back to android ? , thanks
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
If you go to boot manager you can select usb, it will reboot/(power off, just restart) and boot from usb, at this point you will need a keyboard so powered usb hub is necessary.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
not working , booting to android back

my usb is on ntfs , you booted from fat32?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
You are trying to boot windows?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
yes
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
Ok. Ntfs should be fine.

You need to change some settings in bios to allow usb boot.

To get keyboard and usb boot support, in bios

Device manager......

System setup........

android.......

Uefi secure BOOT=disable.

South cluster configuration.......

Usb configuration.....

default drd CONFIG=hostmode

Usb VBUS=on.

that's it save changes and exit. Next time you boot to bios you can use keyboard connected via otg to use bios. You can also select next boot device in bios boot manager.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
i tried all this already , im followed the steps and yet not booting just showing black screen back to bios boot manager or the main bios , or after fews time its booting to android again..
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
So you have working keyboard and usb stick shows in boot manager?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
yea the keyboard working , and the stick is showing in boot menu.. when i click usb its turning off , and turning on back to android

i got this intel message bootloader error code 03 , what i need to disable to remove it ? , and by the way when i am entering fastboot mode says that secure boot is still enabled , maybe i need to delete all the keys?

edit:

srry for the interption !!

uefi secure boot was Enabled!!

now its disabled , trying to boot ::))))
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] joesnose:
The only way to disable the bootloader error 03 is to re lock it, this is not reccomended as with thlocked bootloader you wont be able to load twrp if anything goes wrong with your android system.

Mine still says secureboot enabled and I able to boot win10 and win to go usb sticks. I would not recomend deleting the keys! But only because I don't know the outcome.

Does your stick boot on another pc?
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] sagi232123:
ok , i disabled uefi secure boot , and now its code bootloader 04 , but still says : Boot efi usb failed prees any key to continue and back to bios ,

I tried this and it started out OK but I messed up. I typed the command to mount in adb shell and it was OK. While I was typing all the x00\ I hit enter at some point while going for the back slash. I now get device or resource busy. I tried to start over and now when I type the mount command I get Permission denied. I tried the mount command after using the su command but the same results. I restored the original system partition from a twrp backup and get same results. Any idea what I need to do besides get better at typing.

It did not work for me but I don't have twrp installed, I just booted into so I don't know if that is the cause.

[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] morrolinux:
Hello there! I was wondering if it's possible to enable VT-X from the yoga book bios. I haven't rooted the device yet, and i'm not sure if it's worth. Could you please check it for me?

If it's possible, we could use Limbo x86 with KVM support to run Windows/Linux just like we would on VirtualBox I think.
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] morrolinux:
I've successfully managed to root, unlock boot loader and enter BIOS. VT-x is there, supported and enabled by default on this bios.

The only thing is missing is an android kernel which supports it for the Yoga Book. that's a blocking issue as long as we are not able to recompile a full featured working kernel from Lenovo's sources.

I've also tried booting several Linux distributions:

Ubuntu 17.10 (boots fine, wifi working) BUT be aware, the installation process of Ubuntu seems to overwrite some android boot files, and therefore my device is fu**'ed up ATM. Probably a total fastboot wipe will be needed.

Antergos (boots fine, wifi not working out of the box, installation does not break anything, but post install boot seems to fail for now)

Manjaro (boots fine, wifi working out of the box, haven't managed to install it yet.)
[Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion] Sweetgeex:

I rooted my Yoga book months ago but for nothing, not worth it for me and had difficulties to revert, no more official updates for me ?

Anyone satisfied with a G4 battery purchase in Europe?

Been reading the battery threads here in xda, seems you can get some good batteries but only in the US.

Getting a non fake battery is not as easy as it seems, so, is there anyone who got a good battery (via e-shopping, eBay preferably) in Europe? By good I mean either true original or performing at least like the stock one.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EPa:
Yes, your thread is well known, but there's one more thing I should have mentioned: I have the black leather back which I love and don't want to change.

So that rules out most of the batteries in that thread since they need custom covers.

The few that are labeled slim do not ship to Europe (links from the 1st post, don't know if there's more links later in the thread which is quite big)

Thanks anyway.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EPa:
A few cases I've seen with batteries that are already available in both Europe and US (mostly fake ones typically marked as original in bulk form) the shipping varies from $10 onwards.

Maybe I would pay that shipping cost for a battery like the TQTHL for which many say is very good, but the problem is noone ships to Europe.

Wow thanks man, but what if the battery is problematic or something? I mean, I would have to send it back to you, effectively paying shipping back and forth, which would probably cost me more than the battery itself, and that is IF you would invest the time in such a situation.

Yes it seems so (as one reviewer also says), but reviews after some time after purchase would be good.
