I also have this issue. When I boot up, it goes through the grub menu fine, and I can proceed from the USB write speed test (I have to "press enter to continue"), but after it does that, my machine resets. As in, the power goes off for about five seconds before starting up again.
Anybody have any ideas?
My system specs:
CPU: AMD FX-8350
RAM: 32GB
M/B: Asus M5A99FX-PRO-R2
Video: nVidia GeForce GTX 970
Sound: Creative X-Fi

I tryed to install an other version of Remix OS (1.5) but it also don't work. At the begining a thought that thé image "system.img" was missing but nothing else hapenned. I am starting to think that the problem is coming from the version and that we do have to wait for à better version. So I think they are not solutions yet.

well, going by their FAQ thingie, it's likely to be nVidia graphics cards causing the issue.

Hey,
Thank you. Somebody knows if Remix OS could work with NVIDIA in yhe futur ?

By pressing tab and typing "nomodeset" at one of the boot options, it boots successfully for me, but it's ugly as all hell, and there's am unsightly blinking text cursor in the middle of the screen

So we just have to write this command when they ask us which mode (resident/guest) we want ?

Yes. highlight "Resident" or "Guest" and press Tab. Then, add "nomodeset" to the end of the command and press Enter. It works for me, but it's not pretty. Not by a long shot.

It is not generaly solutio for "Remix does not boot" comonly problem. "nomodeset" is just one of various parameters which you can add to your GRUB kernel line. Here in second post (post with green check mark aka accepted answer) you have nice explanation what "nomodeset" does. Remix is in alpha stage and wont run on all hardware. If someone succsesfuly booted Remix on his own hardware with "nomodeset" parameter, it doesn't be case that you will also, on your hardware. I also can't bott Remix on my Toshiba Satellite L775D, and I was try many of kernel line parameters. From other side, I succesfully run Remix on other laptop (Acer Aspire something) without editing anything.

Resident Mode Troubles (Built PC)

I built myself my own computer with an NVIDIA GTX 970 for it's graphics card, i5-4690k processor and the motherboard is an Asus that has USB 3.0 ports.
I was using an old 16GB Sandisk that's USB 2.0. Guest mode boots fine and there are no graphical issues it boots up fine and normal on my end..
However booting into Resident Mode I have issues. There is an infinite boot loop on the Remix OS screen, when I reboot to try again there is an initial loading screen in Mandarin (Or at least I believe it's Mandarin, sorry) but then I get stuck on the Remix OS screen once again. I even tried deleting data.img to try again and that didn't work.
I let my computer run it all night and still haven't managed to boot up.
I even managed to run Guest Mode on a 4 GB USB Stick that is on 2.0, which leads me to think there isn't anything wrong with the OS itself but with creating a permanent partition on the USB Stick for the OS and the data you want to store on it. Does anyone have an idea to fix this? Haven't found a solution and searched everywhere for one.
Thanks in advanced. :good:

That's strange though it booted up on Guest Mode, is Resident Mode more dependent on the GPU I suppose?
I'll try running resident mode once again but on my integrated graphics. Wish there was a seamless was of booting Remix OS then to windows easily though.
Thanks for the response!

Yeah, can't seem to boot up on my desktop but no big deal. Hopefully I can boot up on my laptop in resident mode. Only Guest Mode works but eh.

** THEORY **
Not going to post anymore since I realize i've been spamming my own thread with micro-updates.
I'm going to theorize that you CAN'T run Resident Mode if your USB Stick goes under 10 (Which the OS does warn you about this). Unless anyone else has been able to run Resident Mode on a 2.0 Stick please do post here. I order this from amazon, hopefully it'll work. ALSO, from my findings I do believe that even if the USB port is 2.0 it'll still run well because USB 2.0 ports are capable of writing up to at least 15 - 50 MBps assuming your USB Stick is USB 3.0.
TL;DR
USB 2.0 can't run Resident Mode
USB 3.0 is fast on a 2.0 port which should be able to run Resident Mode
Only a guess/theory from observations.
Guest Mode works on USB 2.0 <= 5MBps
This link goes to a possible solution regarding NVIDIA Cards!
I have the same trouble with an ASUS F200-CA intel celeron. I run quite well guest mode but resident mode has your same issue. I've installed Remix OS on a 2.0 usb stick.
The only difference between me and you is that the first time i booted it war working also with resident mode (for example i installed Google Play Services). I don't know why but after a reboot it stopped working. I tried to format and flash many time the usb stick trying to make it work.

Uefi bios only !
Hey Guys,
So i have download the beta on the Remix OS (32BIT) although for the life of me cannot get it working. I have a linx Tablet which doesn't seem to have legacy support within the BIOS. As far as i am aware the 32BIT version of the OS is Legacy only so how am i meant to install the OS? Here's what i have tried so far.
- Used the beta software to install Remix OS on the same drive, installs fine but when i restart the tablet it boots straight into windows 10. Also when looking at the boot manager there's nothing there to boot from.
Installed the 64 BIT version which also doesn't boot although if i go into my boot manager it appears but when selecting the screen goes black. Most likely due to the fact I'm trying to boot 64 BIT on a 32BIT tablet.
Now this seems like its going to be an issue for many people with 32BIT systems with no legacy option available.
Has anyone had luck getting this working ???

While booting, press ESC when it prompts you...to go to the main menu.
Press E
You will get 3 or 4 lines
Highlight the line that contains kernel and press E again
move left or right using the arrow keys
add those flags right after androidboot.hardware=remix_x86_64
Be sure to add spaces as needed.
Once done, press Enter.....then press B to boot.
Same Issue : for 32 bit version

It does not give the options to as it did in the first time.

Unless you put it in the grub file you have to add this code everytime you reboot. Can you edit the code in windows? You need the space so u don't confuse the pc.

Installing Windows 10 / Android x86 on an x86 tablet with Droidboot

Hi,
First of all, if this is not the right forum, I'm sorry. I read a lot and I thought this was the best fit.
Anyway, I have an old tablet with an x86 cpu (atom z2460) and Droidboot bootloader. I was wondering if there is any way I can install Windows 10 32 bits or Android x86.
I know there aren't any Android ports and it's running JellyBean 4.2, pretty useless. I can only use it to play video files, not even modern browsers can be installed.
I tried pressing F11 and F12 when turning it on but nothing happened (external keyboard of course)
The tablet is the Intel TM105a.
Any help or link with more info is appreciated, I haven't found anything I can use.
Thanks!

If the bootloader is not locked, yes, you can. I tried this on an Intel Atom tablet that I have but couldn't get it to work because the bootloader is locked. If the bootloader is locked, you can't flash anything except the official stock firmware.

Hi, thank you for your answer!
If I do manage to unlock it, how would I go about installing something else?
I mean...
I know that for Motorola phones I can use RSD. Samsung uses Odin.
That's it, that's all I've ever flashed.
What would I be using here?
No need to waste time explaining, if you can point what I should search for or learn, that'd be great.
I tried to search for info about Droidboot but couldn't find something useful. Just some things about some Asus phones.

Hi, thank you for your reply.
OEM unlocking is not available for unlocking the bootloader, as far as I know that started on Lollipop, this is running JellyBean.
I really wanted to try Windows 10, but I don't even know if it will load the touchscreen drivers.
Maybe I should just let it die? There's something about me always wanting to use as much as possible any piece of hardware but I probably should be realistic and leave it if there's no "easy" way.
I really did search high and low.
I wanted to see if I can unlock the bootloader and then see how to install Windows, and if it doesn't work just go back to JellyBean.

If the device has fastboot, you can try these commands:
fastboot oem unlock
Or
fastboot flashing unlock
Or to check if unlocking bootloader is allowed or not, try this command:
fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability

According to Wiki (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Atom_microprocessors) this is Intel Penwell (ah, and CPU lies about 64-bit ability, it's 32-bit only). Luckily you still (!) have support from Linux for that chip (no 3D acceleration though, it uses SGX overlay which is closed source, but you may find a blob in the Android distribution). It has no EFI, no ACPI, it's SFI one! It will be fun to install an OS there such as Windows.

Question Help Rooting Poco M4 Pro 4G - PC not detecting phone while in fastboot

Hi,
I am experiencing issues with my Poco M4 Pro 4G and trying to unlock the bootloader. What I am currently doing is the following;
I enabled developer options, enabled usb debugging and OEM unlocking. I went to unlock status hit agree and hit pair and have waited 7 days for the timer to run out
I shut down the phone and then enter fastboot by holding the volume down button and the power button at the same time.
I downloaded the mi flash unlock tool from here and I logged in using the same account as on the phone, and got up to this screen.

I then connect the phone which currently has the fastboot logo on to the computer but the button stays grey.
The following is what I have done;
I have installed adb tools. When the phone is booted and is connected to my computer I can see it via "adb devices" in CMD as admin. I can even send it to fastboot mode by "adb reboot fastboot"
I have installed the qualcomm drivers but I am unsure if they are the correct ones.
I have tried with different cables.
I have tried with different PCs.
The computer that I am using mainly to try and unlock the bootloader is a laptop and the specs are as follows;
Model: GP72 2QE Leopard Pro
Intel Core i7 5700HQ

There does seem to be a known problem with the Mi Unlock tool not being able to communicate properly with the system drivers. There are some tips for getting it working on this thread:

If that post doesn't solve the problem then try reading through the later posts in that thread.
Sorry for the late reply, I did the suggestion and it worked! Thank you for the help.
My goal was to flash the indonsian rom of the device onto and I had a bit of a problem last night I ended up sending it into a bootloop because the connection wasn't stable from the computer to the phone, I just woke up today and tried it again on a different computer and a brand new cable and the connection wasn't cutting out at all. I put it in fastboot and succesfulyl flashed it. I can't thank you enough for the help.
I just need to know if I need to close this thread or something now that my issue is complete. I'm new around here so I don't know if I shoudl do that.

Hi,
I am experiencing issues with my Poco M4 Pro 4G and trying to unlock the bootloader. What I am currently doing is the following;
I enabled developer options, enabled usb debugging and OEM unlocking. I went to unlock status hit agree and hit pair and have waited 7 days for the timer to run out
I shut down the phone and then enter fastboot by holding the volume down button and the power button at the same time.
I downloaded the mi flash unlock tool from here and I logged in using the same account as on the phone, and got up to this screen.

I then connect the phone which currently has the fastboot logo on to the computer but the button stays grey.
The following is what I have done;
I have installed adb tools. When the phone is booted and is connected to my computer I can see it via "adb devices" in CMD as admin. I can even send it to fastboot mode by "adb reboot fastboot"
I have installed the qualcomm drivers but I am unsure if they are the correct ones.
I have tried with different cables.
I have tried with different PCs.
The computer that I am using mainly to try and unlock the bootloader is a laptop and the specs are as follows;
Model: GP72 2QE Leopard Pro
Intel Core i7 5700HQ
16GB RAM
