Hi Users and Devs:)

im writing my test results here about dual booting and other operating Systems that i have installed them on my yoga book Windows Version and i will try to explain lot of Details about this stuff

First i will share the operating Systems and Details about what work and what not on yoga book.

Ubuntu(17.10.1), PhoenixOS(2.6.2 based on Android-x86 Nougat 7.1.1), BlissOS(10.1 based on Android-x86 Oreo 8.1.0), DeepinOS (15.5): no Sound, no halo Keyboard, no Auto rotating, no sensors, no Bluetooth, only Booting, Touch Screen, Screen brightness controling and WiFi are working

Android-x86(7.1.2), Openthos(Based on Android-x86 Lolipop 5.1): nothings at all

There might be a lot of other OSs that i might Forget to mention above, but i released why some Hardware cant work like Sound, Bluetooth,......

the main Problem is the KERNEL(the kernel is a big Collection of modules and Drivers that boot up our Hardwares as soon as we enter any Operation system), some kernels 4,9.x cant boot or wifi and touch Screen cant work, all kernels 4.12.x Support booting, touch Screen and wifi, all kernels 4.15.x Support booting, touch Screen, brightness controling and wifi

the only kernel that will make other OSs work like a charm and without any missing Drivers is buildslave kernel, this kernel came pre-load with most of Lenovo Yoga series + Yoga Book (for yoga Book Android users go to about tablet and check out it), the Problem is that i dont have a 100 GB (i will explain this later) ( in 22 mar 2018 they released the second Version of the Open Source Code for Lenovo YB1-X90F/L https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/products/TABLETS/YOGA-SERIES/YOGA-BOOK/downloads/DS118515 ) also depend on my Tests the kernel is only for Android 6.0.1, not for 7.1.1

i tried to build Android x86 from sources using Yoga Book Open Source Code from Lenovo but AOSP files are Need at least 100 GB with Additional files from Android x86 abot 20 gb, unfortunatly i dont have this big size of hard disk on my SSD :mad:

Yoga Book Android and Windows versions are 99.99% contain the same hardwares (0.01% are only the Keyboard shapes but also the halo Keyboard is the same in both) thats why it make my optimistic about running Stock yb Android Rom on Windows (Windows Version of yb used same bios as yoga Windows series, but yb Android Version use the same bios as yoga Android series does and all of yoga win and Android series based on Insyde bios)

Android yoga Book System based on Android-IA Project which is from Intel to allow Android run in Intel CPUs https://01.org/android-ia as yoga Book based on cherry Trails cpu

for Android yb users you can install Windows and other OSs on your device but you will force same Bugs above and you need to buy a licence key to get Windows updates on it (i only have yb Windows so i dont know lot of informations about this)

Windows yb BIOS contains a very basic informations and options (for example there is no UEFI and legacy option, there is also no ACPI enable;disable option, cpu overclocking......)

I believe there is a way to install Android stock in yb windows, i mean through reimagie the eMMC, for more infos, visit http://en.miui.com/thread-419845-1-1.html
