[Q] Windows 8 running on Gen8? - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I was reading this article:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/3...ptops and Tablets [VIDEOS]&utm_campaign=Array
And wondering if we could run Windows 8 on our gen8's. Although the official requirements for a tablet as stated here.. and their a bit too much for our poor device.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8#Tablets_and_convertibles
Could we make it run?

No, and there will never be a way to do so.
The video shows a x86 Tablet, that has allready a normal windows running.
The ARM version of Winodws 8 ( called WinRT ) need alot more then the Gen8 can provide.

Windows Phone 7 on samsung i900

im using samsung omnia i900. how to make my pda using windows phone 7 ? how step to make its ?? or link i can download ??
You can't run WP7 on your phone right now because:
1) Windows Phone 7 is not even released yet. The emulator builds are running only on x86 architecture(and our omnia is ARM).
2) There are some issues about the CPU instruction set that Windows Phone 7 uses, in short, it will run on SnapDragon processors(for example, hd2).
your x86 processor is a CISC processor, and your ARM processor is a RISC processor.
Instructions designed for one CANNOT be used on the other. They must be recoded.
Complex Instruction Set Computing - can handle almost any length instructions
Reduced Instruction Set Computing - can only handle a specific length instruction (no longer, no shorter)
My phone is samsung omnia i900 too. it can't run windows phone 7, and 6.5 is the best for it.
there aren't any chance to make it compatible?

WP7 has very high HW requirements
Even you port system it will work extreamly slow

lol, dual boot with Windows 7? on an ARM processor? I don't think so, not to mention limited RAM (512Mb)... Windows 8 may be possible but not in the near future, and even if it could, I think it will slow like hell on our Toshiba tablet
I no they managed it on the nook check this thread out
and then there is this one witch alows you to dual-boot with linux on our folio from a memory card
some one might be able to do something with these or give them some ideas on how to achieve this for us
Yes, ofcourse you can dual boot different version of Android or Android + Linux (Ubuntu), but not with Windows 7.... What he referred to was Windows 7....
i know windows had no hope and i wouldn't want it, i would like to duel-boot folionotion and foliocombe

[Q] Run windows on android [Dual Boot]

So these days i was googling for a way to really install windows 8 on android tablets. I came over a video about a software called "changemysoftware". It seems it would make your devicea dual boot with windows 8 and android. What do you think? Is this fake?

But theres a video of someone installing it on their Android, it dual boots windows 8 and android, but windows 8 was laggy due to his dual core tab. There were 200+ likes and 20+ dislikes so, seems legit, he also uploaded the program onto ZippyShare so that you didn't have to do the survey, but when I tried it tells me the software is outdated and needs to be updated, so I cant do it unless I update it completing the survey...
You do know that it can still be faked right?
Give me half an hour and I'll show you how to install any OS on any device. All that was is a video of something on someone's PC screen.
Okay, I know this I am late for the talk but I think this is best for future questions. Just to be clear for other people who is confused with this scam.
The program is .NET framework based so I decompiled it with .NET Reflector. I got the source and trust me, there is no ADB related code. It is picture and text popping out. Also if you try to rename one of its .DLL file, it is the text "changemysoftware" spamming around to make hundreds kilobytes file. You might think I'm lying so you better see the source itself, download the attachment.
Note: Reflector failed to decompile it into Visual basic or C# so .IL file is only working. Try to find "ButtonX_Click" event in the Form1.il. Pictures and assets are in the .resources file.
fake images only
It's a fake. I just tried without connection any device. it showed as my device locked and have to contact them to unlock. to drag money....

Change my software is fake! But there are many ways to run windows on Android:
Can you install it with BOCHS, but it is Windows XP
Can you use TeamViewer but you need a PC
If you find 2 tablets with the same hardware but one with Android the other Windows one then it is not a problem this dual boot with just a some fix to the bootloader. Or if you collect all of the drivers from windows tablets and find Android tablet with hardware that has win drivers and then mod the windows rom...
Only phone I've ever seen that on was the old HTC HD2.

You can't do that, but may be ask a dev to build a Windows arm build may be?
Technically, yes.You can find arm64 windows rom on UUPdump.
But it does not works on any android so we need to develop.
First you need a rooted 64bit phone with twrp and unlocked bootloader.
Then wait for a dev to re-partition device to only /system ,/ recovery and /bootloader.
Then he needs to develop drivers for that device.
That dev also needs to debug a uefi bootloader and after bootting from usb and install windows,thats done.
But it still need a arch converter which is placed in windows installer that can convert X86 or AMD64 apps (.exe)(.msi)into ARM64 apps.
It is hard so no one(at least not me ) can do this and the device-adding speed will be extremely slow.
(You need to re-develop when the cpu is changed. So only the arch-convertor is usable when you are working on a different device.)
[This is the full process to building windows arm64 build ]
Please note that arm32 is not supported.

[Q] HP Stream 7. Can run Android?

Hi everyone, I bought an Hp Stream 7 some weeks ago. This tablet has the same hardware of the Trekstor Surftab Xintron i 7.0 but the Hp Strem 7 has Windows 8.1, while the Xintron i 7.0 has Android 5.0 Lollipop,
so i think: Is it possible do a porting of Android on Stream 7? Thank you to everyone!!
Try android x86. there are plenty of guides on how to install it. there shouldn't be much of a difference between the ordinary pc and your tablet.

Except that the HP Stream 7 is x64. However, it does run 32-bit Windows 8.1, so maybe it's okay?

Every x86_64 bit processor supports execution of x86_32 code. So, since you can disable secure boot in uefi, you are free to try it. however some things may be broken, wifi or bluetooth for example.

Installing Nougat on any device?

Hi guys, I have a question for you. I have a tablet, which is not supported above android 4.2, but it is not that old (Asus Memopad 8 K00l). Nobody even on XDA posted ROM for Android 4.4 or higher. But: I can install Android Nougat on my laptop and it surprisingly works without any issues. Why is it so difficult to install it on some random tablet device?

Did you install nougat on a virtual machine?
No, it was installed normally as dual boot with my windows 7 (on separate partition of my HDD)

Every handheld device like a smartphone or tablet has its own hardware.
The kernel, for example, needs to be programmed about which drivers to load.
And most of the time, each device has its own drivers.
Each ROM is built for a particular device, that's why one ROM which works on one tablet does not work on another.
But in case of large devices, like laptops, they are designed so that any kind of OS can be installed upon them according to the concerned person's needs.
There are operating systems which work only on part of a computer chip.
These OSes help in installing almost any OS in a laptop.
The same are probably not available for handheld devices like tablets
