[Q] Dell Venue 8 3830 - Windows/BIOS? - Dell Venue

Hey,
I'm interested in getting this tablet to run Windows, to my understanding you require a BIOS.
Seeing as how there is literally a counterpart tablet made with Windows (Dell Venue 8 Pro), wouldn't it be possible to figure out how to throw that BIOS onto here?

[Q] Asus FHD 10 ME302C (x86) boot windows 8?

I know it's possible to unlock the bootloader for the FHD 10 but how would I boot windows? I noticed people flash rooted images after they unlock bootloaders, would booting windows be the same? Would I need to create a windows image and then flash it like one would a rooted image?
Here's how to root the FHD 10 . Flashing full versions of windows 8.1 on and android x86 device seems like something no one has done yet. It will be awesome when it happens though.
Technically the hardware could support Windows 8, but I doubt we'll be seeing anyone trying to bring the OS to the ME302C. There just aren't enough developers interested in the tablet and it's not as simple as putting windows onto a new computer is.
windows on mobile devices (all versions) does not get as much support as android. and they are not open source so their hacks and mods are very few.
A $250 Win 8 tablet will draw in developers. I believe a lot of Asus Transformer Prime Devs will be interested.
As for installing windows, your right, tablet bios' are very basic.Either a bios will need to be ported or something like twrp2 could be used to make flashing a windows image manageable.
The biggest problem is getting things to work on x86, even the asus bootloader unlock was written for ARM and needs to be recompiled.
Another problem is storage. Even 32GB is not enough for Windows (not RT).
If you managed to install OS on SD, it's a different story.
Windows 8.1 has a minimum storage requirement of 16 GB. Installing programs would be best on a micro sd card. Although the fhd comes in both 16 and 32 gb. Enough to install microsoft office and some other productivity apps without a sd card.

Is it possible to run other operating systems on the Venue 8 7000?

TL;DR: Can I install Linux on the Venue 8 7000?
Hello, I am new to this forum, so please correct me, if I do anything wrong. I would like to buy the Venue 8 7000, but Android is not enough for me, as I'd like to develop desktop apps. Installing Linux should not be that hard, if it is possible to choose the boot device, which could be blocked. I mean, do Tablets work as normal Computers? Do I just need to hit F8 or something like that? Also what Architechture is the Processor? It is Intel, so I'd suspect i686 or x86_x64. Would I need to install the OS on the Tablet's internal memory? If so, do apps themselves need internal memory? I have never owned a Tablet before, so I don't know. If all of this doesn't work, could you recommend me another small Tablet? I read somewhere on here, that someone got it working on an nVidia SHIELD, so this shouldn't be too much different.
Thanks!

Dell Venue 8 Pro on Win10 - Revert to Win8.1?

I bought a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5830 second had, and it came preloaded with Windows 10. BIOS version is A16. I saw a bunch of videos on YouTube of this tablet running several PC games pretty well, as well as some emulators. When I try running some PC games, most run very sluggish.
I have done some reading on several forums, and it seems to be that having Windows 8.1 may resolve my issues. How can I install Windows 8.1 on this tablet? I can't find a recovery image anywhere.
Thanks!

Help with Dell P2418HT plus Android

Hi folks, I'm trying to use Mi BOX 3 with dell touchscreen monitor P2418HT.
On windows it's necessary a driver installation.
Anyone have an ideia how to make it possible to reconize it on Android?
I also installed Android on a notebook, (normal android, not the android tv), and also does not work....
Maybe write a small driver?
Thanks in advance!
Conclusion: does not work with linux and android.
This dell is not compatible. Even on windows is necessary drivers.
Need to choose other brand.
Same problem as the original poster, anyone have an idea?

WINDOWS 10/11 , CHROMEOS , UBUNTU

Do you think there's any way to install WIN 10/11 on our tablet? (No emulators)[Dual Boot Maybe], even the ARM version works.
I am also ready to install (dualboot) chrome os (CloudReady), but for that we need the device to boot from live usb which maybe isn't available on our tablet, and if it is, please guide me.
I've done my part of research and I've been using the tab s 7+ for about 4 months now. I need windows or a full on chrome desktop experience of windows. My last resort for this will be Linux/Ubuntu, which i am not willing to go for, but will do if i have no other option.

I haven't heard of anyone installing windows 10 even windows 11 on an android tablet like the tab s7
Your best bet would be Linux or smth like that because the kernel would be similar.
Windows can’t be installed because Windows use a different kernel process from Linux and android, nonetheless, I don't know if anyone has managed to run it.

Won't happen.
The bootloader will not allow it and Win 10/11 does not support the Qualcomm 865 SOC.

I don't think the 845 was supported either, yet the Oneplus 6t runs Windows 11 though

It loads and kinda runs, but core SOC features do not work.
So no, the 845 is not "supported".
No network, no bluetooth, no sound, partially functioning GPU... that's not a functional device.
An of course the high risk of bricking your device.
it is windows 11, idk if windows ARM would run it but idk, i rather not risk breaking my phone for installing windows
Hi,
I came across this article on how it can be done. https://www.androidauthority.com/install-windows-on-android-868800/

Here's how to install Windows on Android tablets
You can't directly install Windows on an Android tablet, but you can certainly use it on one. Here's how to use Windows on an Android tablet.

I wish this was possible .. now i am selling my tablet over this hhhh i mean cause i need to run windows
While the Windows 11 ARM Versions start to slowley emerge for some android devices, give Parsec a try for your Remote Desktop work. It differs from RDP, since over parsec you can actually use the Host PC's GPU.
There are some android tablets that have Windows 11 up and running: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Xiaom...devices-that-can-run-Windows-11.604674.0.html
