Windows USER`S PLEASE READ THIS! we need your help - Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello, first of all please do apologize for my English (i´m portuguese) , and an actual yogabook android version user.
We (the android users ) are having some hard times trying to boot windows on our tablet (it makes sense because it´s the same machine) therefore, what we need right now, is for someone who could acess his bios (there´s a thread here explainning the process, its actually quite simple) and, tell us how the windows bios is configurated, to allow us do a "copy/paste" of the configuration.
would you guys be so kind and help us out? :crying:

I think its a very different bios on the windows version. Probably accessible upon keypress on boot but very different from android one.

i really hope you´re wrong lol let´s wait and see if anyone could help us out with this, because i can´t belive tha same hardware can only boot one OS

Dont think it's accessible on Keypress. That hasn't been a thing since Win7, I believe. Exactly what settings are you looking for? I could probably just share some pictures of mine, if thats easier.

Many thanks !
I just checked with mine, the bios is just completely different !
Do you have an option with ACPI enabled or disabled ?
That's what most of android users have after booting windows 10 on usb key.

ACPI is branded in the bios and on by default as Windows has it under control.
Power, Device, Processor-States etc... all handled by Windows and not like older (very old) bios which had APM
That's why you need another bios if you ever want to dualboot.

I'm pretty sure you can download the BIOS from Lenovo. I couldnt help you install it from Android though. Seems like a very easy way to a bricked device.

Well... There is a tool from lenovo site, but it seems to update only if you already have windows 10 (exe file).

You got it. Quite easy to brick it.
I am pretty sure Lenovo burned the BIOS in an EEPROM. Differently between Windows and Android models. Updates are just flashed in a CMOS, well rather NVRAM nowdays. That's why Windows and Android models have completely different approaches when it comes to update the BIOS. I doubt there will ever be a way to flash (supposed) "Windows" settings into a "Android" device, as the EEPROM was initially fixed differently, expecting specific store instructions for the NVRAM depending the OS model.

Anyone knows how to install WM6 ?

I down loaded WM6 but I do not seem to be able to install it on Hermes 100, can somebody help?
hey where you got the wm6 i dont think it is available as yet
he's downloaded a generic image from Microsoft.
the image is useless, you CANNOT get it onto your Hermes, or any other device for that matter; only HTC can do that.

launch setup.exe and follow the prompts. you need to have windows 3.11 for workgroups on your desktop PC with MSDOS 6.22.

No, you're wrong. He needs a dual-Itanium x64 CPU with 4GB of ram, 5TB harddrive (that's a "T" on purpose), and at LEAST Windows Vista Ultimate with Office 2007 Ultimate (all retail, and all activated). Then, you take the whole lot and throw it out your window and wait for HTC to put it on the device.
Hehe... nice.
i have a WM6 image.. it has all kinds of HTC files in its root, i'm afraid to install it though.

Where did you get this one from?
"nk.nbf"? Good luck installing it
Spank me if I'm wrong but the officially supported method to upgrade the ROM on the Hermes is through signed (encrypted) NBH files. Anything else is hanky-panky as far as HTC is concerned. So the package you found is most likely for another phone.
if i'm not mistaken, that's the Universal 'wm6cb' release, ie not for the hermes

heh ha heh
they are correct, this isnt the hermes wm6....
I tried flashing and failed, but no damage done.
Have not tried the Windows and DOS methode it saound interesting!! I did try pushing it in thogh, haha...
that means that I cannot install WM on any device? because my Toshiba g500 has a software which crashes after showing the welcome screen (TOSHIBA). DO i have to return it or is there any way to solve it myself?
bashma, is it a Hermes you're trying to put WM06 on?
You need to put the WM MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE on. If you try to put a version on that isn't made for your device you will end up with a brick. Its like trying to build a dvd player with chinese instructions, you know whats supposed to happen, it just won't start.....

Ok i will explain it to you! you can give the money to da_gnarf so he can desepair with it! but the day after when when you switch on your phone you will find wp7 on your HD2 you may feel little pain in the ass ! dont worry about it! it was just da_gnarf passing by last night
Ubuntu & Winmo7 are still in alpha stages. Few things work. If they work, they crash easily.
Read the reviews of WINMO7 ... souunds like a bad Windows Vista: no apps from WINMO 6.5 will work. Limited hardware choices for manufacturers. Ultra-tight copyright border-guards everywhere. Won't work with latest Flash.
hey someone know how can i flash any windows vista 64b in my lovely hd2
ey that is just in question ?...
HOW TO: Put WP7 on your HD2​
1) Download and flash a task29 ROM.
2) Download and flash SPL 2.02.0000
3) Download WP7 ROM from xda.cn, extract, rename it halechk.bin, place on SD card.
4) Flash it.
(I am not responsible if you actually do this )
Buy HD7 and take the screen from the HD7 and assemble it to fit perfectly on the HD2 using scissors, and don't forget to cut out the "Windows Phone" logo and solder it to the back of the HD2 case, you can also dual boot android using the same procedure with the Desire HD, and then just solder the logos on and off to change OSs.
Good luck mate!
EDIT:
BTW, I forgot to mention you don't have to change the screens if you're looking to dual boot, it seems the HD7 and the Desire HD use the same screens!, how convenient!
dude... i bricked my phone.. :O XD
no just kidding
but i think in a few months, we can be proud on our hd2's

LOL @ above

I just LOL'd all over myself!
Maybe I don't know the whole story, but from what I have read.....
Even if there was an available ROM, it's hardly even worth putting on your phone.
Why do people wish to make their phones do less.
I am not slagging on WP7, but I just don't see why all the fuss to load a locked up OS.
Wait 6 months or even a year till all the watchdogs in the sofware are nix'd and the XDA team has had a full go at working the bugs out.

Unable to find phone in Emergency or Recovery mode during KDZ flashing

Hello friends of XDA, i'm here to ask you help once again! This time the problem is about a mysteriuos p760 aka LG Optimus L9. The problems in which i came across is the unlocking the bootloader and installing a custom recovery.
I tried so many ways that i'm really out of resources and ideas... Here few screenshots of the phone informations from setting app:

I am using Windows 8.1U3 on an Alienware 17.
I'll try to explain as fast and clearly i can:
First i read about this thread and it simply didn't worked (wow totally unexpected thanks to my fortune (Y)).
Then i thought i could easily flash some KDZ with unlocked bootloader and a sparky CWM built in, so i've google a little around and i found this and I then tried to flash the
with this guide but here the fun begun! No matter how i installed drivers, rebooted the system, tried in recovery mode or S/W Mode, the software did not see any phone at all; on the contrary the device manager sees it clearly and install correctly the drivers.
After posting the errors i found an answer a month later in the same thread.
This guys advices to use this tool instead, but as you can guess from me writing here, it did not work.
Then googling again i found this guide where you can install a CWM without even unlocking the bootloader! So, hey, i just need the root!
So let's go finding some way to root this F device (may LG go bankrupt now)! Again i googled "root p760/l9/optimus/plslgdie" and i found few ways none of them working. The Saurik one tells me that there is no bug available to exploit, the Chinese all-in-one rooter seems not having any green button and other script based on adb simply do not find the phone!
Of course i've tried a lot of cables and computers, all of them not working (still i need to try another OS....) and i'm going crazy. Only another device drove me crazy like that (the e610 aka L5 - wow this too was totally unexpcted!) but i finally found a ways to solve.
Please help me to delete every single line of code LG compiled in this device, please!
Up! Halp pls!

It's hard to say. I remember some people told me that windows 8 have problems with l9 driver. I don't want to say that you can reinstall drivers, because I'm sure you did it a few times. You can always install windows 7 but it's derp idea (of course if you want, you can do it). Did you try to run official LG recovery program and try to install from it?

Never tried from the official software, but tomorrow i will try both XP SP3 and 7! I fund an old rusty laptop with 2GB ram and a Pentium D! I'll format it until drivers will work :silly:

Thanks for the reply. That thread is actually the first thing i read before i actually signed up as a member. I read through all 20 something pages and the author of the thread states close to the end of the thread that one has found a firmware for the maven pro with android 6.0. If I could manage to get the drivers installd atleast i could make some kind of leadway on doing other things, like installing a custom recovery but i cant even get my pc . .. laptop running windows 7 to recognize the tablet when I plug it in.... i dont know what else to do at this point but drop kick this tablet into another universe....

Hi, I, too, have been very frustrated with the same problem, having tried all the root apk's I could find to root my RCA Maven Pro 11.6 tablet pc rct6213w87mm to avail. This device has to be one of the most difficult, if not impossible, tablet pc's to root and I'm wondering cynically whether the manufacturer intentionally made it like that to prevent the user from deleting many frivolous bloatwares installed that cannot be uninstalled without rooting the device. I sent an email to the RCA tech support requesting the usb driver for this model, but have not gotten any response, yet, if they will ever respond, that is.
Another Jon here. No relation.
I support a bunch of these specific tablets, we use them for sheet music display. Can't find firmware, can't root them. I feel your pain. However...I also know that the #1 problem with the RCT6213W87M tablet is that it spontaneously crashes & reboots whenever the Play Store app tries to install the latest version of the Google app. Took me awhile to figure this one out, let me tell you. Google doesn't care, because Android 6.0 is yesterday's news to them. RCA doesn't care, because they want you to buy a new tablet. But all the musicians care, very much, when their sheet music display crashes in the middle of a set. I told them to stop being lazy and just memorize all the music. They didn't think that was funny.
My initial fix was to disable auto-updates in the Play Store app, but that's a maintenance headache. A better workaround is to use the instructions at https://www.maketecheasier.com/prevent-specific-android-apps-auto-updating/ -- scroll about halfway down to "Stopping One App From Updating" and do that for the Google app. You still can't root the tablet or remove the bloatware, but it will at least stop the spontaneous reboots. And the musicians will stop throwing the tablets at you.

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.
Thanks again!

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.
