Has anyone been able to set the Phoenix Grub as the default boot? Ive tried setting Phoenix OS as default via BCD, the boot settings nothing. Anyone else have luck or knowledge on how to get it set?
I did the default installer way. No custom partitions or any other setup, just the default.
Go to bios menu and try change boot priority then save

There is no option for Phoenix OS in the boot priority. I've tried all Boot options as the primary and no matter what the only way I can get to Phoenix OS is hitting F12 on boot up

Already tried it. I can set it/move it to the top of the boot list. But it never boots to Phoenix.

That's what's currently in my EFI/Boot/Grubconfig. Im trying to get the BIOs to boot that GRUB first, not just straight to windows. =(

That's the way my Dell tablet works. F12 for boot options, whether it's a bootable USB flash drive or when I used to have Phoenix OS installed. I have an android emulator these days.
Same for me, I can only boot after F9 boot options...
So, this how I did it: I flashed Remix OS with the installer after Phoenix install. (Win10). You do get a efi boot menu from the boot partition not c:/ this one you have to edit, located in boot folder, grub, grub.cfg then add Phoenix entry before windows and here you go. To access boot partition use Linux or Remix Android 5.1( this one I use)
Hey guys, today I downloaded the updated Phoenix OS and decided to root it. I'm kindly sharing my image for anyone who would like to download it:
Instructions:
Install Phoenix OS v2.0.6 and do not restart your computer
Download the correct system rooted.7z file provided in the Download section and extract it
Go to C:\Phoenix OS (or wherever your Phoenix OS installation is) and replace the system.img file that's already there with the one you just downloaded
Reboot your computer now and boot into Phoenix OS. Complete the setup wizard
Install the latest version of SuperSU. Since Phoenix OS v2.0.6 comes with Play Store already, sign in with your Google account and update SuperSU that way. If you for some reason cannot use the Play Store, you can find SuperSU on the official thread. Download the flashable zip, extract Superuser.apk from the common folder, and install it in Phoenix OS by opening the .apk file with the default file manager that comes with the OS.
Update the binary by choosing Normal and your Phoenix OS should now be fully rooted

[Request][Root] Phoenix OS x86 v2.0.6
Hey first of all finally i found the way to root Phoenix OS but there is a problem i have x86 bit version of Phoenix OS so i was hoping you could help out so could you kindly provide a rooted Phoenix OS x86 bit system.img please or tell me the method to root it i would appreciate the help.
And by the way i have a question i have a 64-bit operating system but when i installed Phoenix OS it said it is recommended to install the x86 bit version so i installed the x86 bit version so should i use the 64 or 86 bit version ????
Well the x86 bit version works fine but some glitches can be seen and it gets stuck if i leave it inactive for some time.

Hey, I can work on getting the x86 version of the rooted image for you The method which I used could be found here.
Also, that suggestion sounds incorrect. What OS exactly are you running? Tell me more about your computer specs (CPU, Windows version, and especially how much RAM you have). If you have 4GB of RAM or more, I would go for the x64 version of Phoenix OS. Try it out and let us know if it works better for you, though there might not be much difference in performance. If I remember correctly, my Phoenix OS also causes my screen to go black after it's been sitting inactively for a while. I think it's a common issue with Phoenix OS.

The inactive black screen bug of Phoenix OS has to do something with the lock screen in android which auto locks screen if inactive for some time.
Thanks for the extensive info. It looks like your computer should be able to run the 64-bit version of Phoenix OS just fine. Why don't you give it a try? Also, I posted the x86 version of the rooted image if you still need it.

Good point, I will try to fix it. I'm assuming this issue can be eliminated by disabling the screen lock timeout timer.

Root is working fine, but the one app that won't install successfully for me is Google Plus. It claims my "device isn't compatible with this version" which is weird, given that it worked in previous versions of Phoenix OS. Any thoughts on this? Chinese localization or something maybe?
Edit: I can't even install it if I download it from APKMirror btw.

Hmm thanks for bringing it up. I haven't tried the app on Phoenix OS. Does it work on the original non-rooted version of Phoenix? Give it a try and let us know.
I've noticed that there are several apps that don't work for some reason. Some of the apps I use often give me an Error 501 when trying to install from anywhere. I've tried everything and still haven't gotten them to work. Hopefully more compatibility is coming soon.

Yea, it doesn't work in the non-rooted version either. Probably a build.prop issue with whatever the device is being identified as. I tried to modify it several ways, but couldn't get it working. It worked in previous versions, so I'm hoping they'll correct it soon. I'll report it in the official forums too.
Hi
After installing the PhoenixOS, the Windows Boot Manager(the blue screen one) did not appear when booting,it will boot into the windows 10 directly and I cant select to boot into the Phoenix OS.So I need to press the F12 button everytime i power on my laptop to choose whether i want to boot into windows or phoenix OS via the bios boot manager.Is there any solution to make my Phoenix detectable by Windows Boot Manager?

Chances are, Windows Boot Manager got moved up in the boot sequence. Using EasyUEFI, you can move the Phoenix OS entry back up so it starts booting:
Download and install EasyUEFI.
Open it, click OK, click Manage EFI Boot Option and post what you see here. This is your boot order. If Windows Boot Manager is above Phoenix OS, that means that Windows is being loaded using its default boot loader. What you're trying to do is use the Phoenix OS GRUB loader.
Click on Phoenix OS and click the green up arrow until the Phoenix OS entry is at the very top.
Restart the computer and see if it boots to the GRUB loader.
If it doesn't work, let's investigate what's inside your EFI partition.
First, open command prompt as admin (press start, type in cmd, press Ctrl+Shift+Enter, then press yes). Type in:
Code:
mountvol X: /s
Then type in:
Code:
cd X:\EFI\Boot
And then type in
Code:
dir
and press enter. It should list all the files in that boot directory. Post here on the forum what you see. You can use the command
Code:
dir >>C:\xda-efi-output.txt
to output to a text file and then it would make it easier for you to post it here. The file is located on the root of the C:\ drive. Open it and copy-paste what's inside on the forum, preferably inside code or hide tags to keep it neat. Assuming it's there, you can type in
Code:
grub.cfg
which will open the file with your default text editor. Feel free to post what's inside your grub file.

The solution is to add it yourself.
When in EasyUEFI:
1. click the add button.
2. From type list select Linux/Other.
3. Add a Description (this is what it will be called in the UEFI menu).
4. Select your efi partition (the FAT32 one with the light dot).
5. Click Browse
6. Select \EFI\PhoenixOS\bootx64.efi and click OK.
7. Click OK
8. Use arrows to reorder list to your needs.
And that text file you put up seems to be nothing to do with your EFI. It's a list of your windows directory.

Thank you so much to reply this. And again...after the phoenix os is added into the list and moved to the uppest side...I tried to restart my laptop but it still boots into windows without the system selection screen. After that I checked the list in EastUEFI and the phoenix os was missing again from the list :silly:

What kind of laptop do you have? It sounds like your bootloader is locker. Try going into BIOS and disabling "Secure Boot" or whatever is available from your motherboard. Also, since you couldn't find the Phoenix OS entry, maybe you should try reinstalling Phoenix OS.
Phoenix OS alongside with windows 10 & ubuntu. Total 3 OS=Windows + Ubuntu + Phoenix?
I need to install phoenix OS 7.1.1 in my pc.
It already has Windows 10 and Linux Ubuntu 17.04 in it.
Thru grub loader I'm able to choose whether Windows 10 or Ubuntu.
Now I need to install Phoenix OS too along with these two OSs. I tried installing it thru "PhoenixOSInstaller-v2.0.0-Alpha-60.exe" on my hard disk partition (tried NTFS & FAT32). But after installation, there is no boot entry for phoenix os in the GRUB menu.
I tried EasyBCD to add entry for this OS, but same ended in vein.
Note: When installed the same on my pen drive, it is working fine.
Requirement: Either I need to use my installed Phoenix OS by adding a boot entry or other possible to way to install & use.
Thanks

In Ubuntu, google how to install grub customizer. Once installed, you can add Phoenix to grubs boot options. I have Windows 10, Ubuntu 17.04, Phoenix OS and Remix all booting correctly from grub. Give me just a bit and once I'm to my laptop where the files are, I'll post the boot parameters for phoenix that you need to put in Grub customizer.
EDIT:Here is a screenshot of how to set it up, and I'll give a brief tutorial on using Grub Customizer to add Phoenix.
First in grub customizer, is to add entry. A window will pop up. Here is a screenshot of how it should look and be filled out. Part of the boot sequence is out of screen, so I'll paste the whole thing here.
search --set=root --file /efi/PhoenixOS/kernel
linux /efi/PhoenixOS/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86 REMOUNT_RW=1 SRC=/PhoenixOS vga=788
initrd /efi/PhoenixOS/initrd.img
Click ok on that window. Next, hit the save button. Once is saves successfuly, hit File in upper left, and click write to mbr. Confirm and let it write. Once done, you should be able to reboot and find Phoenix OS in your grub. Should boot fine. Good Luck!
@rebel1699 hi brother i am configuring my laptop to different operating systems
i want to have 5 operating systems install on my laptop i have searched and looked for it all over the internet but couldn't find the exact method..

Hi, Brother @rebel1699, I copied your boot sequence and pasted in the Grub Customizer, but it didn't work
I'm a Newbie, but I think this boot sequence is for UEFI-GPT and that's why it didn't work
I'm trying to triple boot (Windows7,Ubuntu,PhoenixOS) in BIOS-MBR
What should be the boot sequence for Phoneix OS in BIOS-MBR?
Help me out,Please
NOTE: I'm doing a fresh install of all three operating systems, so I don't need any data on my HDD
Thank You!

I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your PC/Laptop/Tab as a result of installing and using this script. you do so at your own risk and take the responsibility upon yourself.

Note: Backup your custom.cfg file if you are dual booting with other os if not then proceed further.
custom.cfg should be in /boot/grub/custom.cfg if EFI install then /boot/efi/EFI/yourdistroname/custom.cfg
p7zip-full should be installed its need for extracting ISO file.
Script should be placed where desired files or ISO is present.
--> This is tested and working fine in kde neon lts on MBR and GPT disks & EFI is not tested as I don't have that installation so it should work.
--> Other then Debian based distros IDK if my script works on them or not, so please test it yourself and inform.
--> If your home folder is defined on other disk or partition please add insmod part_gpt insmod ext2 OR insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 according to disk partition table to grub entry in custom.cfg

Not enough information. Please elaborate on the installation procedure itself. On Ubuntu of course it should install to sda2. I chose the path /dev/sda2/ then used .iso for the install method, and then upon trying to do the install using option 2 it simply keeps bringing me back to the menu where choices 1-4 are present.
I actually got PhoenixOS to install using the USB method, however I cannot find a working boot sequence for GRUB bootloader. I'm kind of at a loss for finding a way to easily switch between Ubuntu and PhoenixOS.

I got this done by making different partitions. Sounds like a no-brainer, but it works. My main OS is MacOSX, then I made different partitions of FAT32s using Disk Utility, I created them all in different sizes (to prevent confusion). After that, I just install the other OS one by one (Phoenix will always be the last). And, I made some extra partitions during Linux installation (just in case) and deleted them after.
As for the Phoenix post, Thank you

It does not work...
I have placed the script and the iso file in the same home directory, chdir in that place but the script does nothing ... It asks for sudo and the it does not create any directorys.
To complicated to debug for me....
EDIT:
I have managed to install it in home / iso mode
I had to edit the generated schipt for modifying GRUB. It was copiing the whole script and not stopping at EOF ?!
It works great
Setup;
1 - Download Phonix OS ISO image on Phonix OS web site
2 - Create a folder with any name
3 - Copy the Iso file to this folder and extract the PhoenixOS-Installer-Linux.zip file to this folder
4 - Open the terminal and go to the folder you created
5 - Now run "chmod +x PhoenixOS-Installer-Linux" and "./PhoenixOS-Installer-Linux" command
6 - The script will run
7 - Select "Select Path & Method"
8 - Type "home" for path and press enter
9 - Type "iso" for method and press enter
10 - Select "Install Rom" and follow the steps
11 - Run the "sudo update-grub" command using the terminal when the process is finished
12 - Restart the computer and select Phoenix Os
I'm sorry for my bad english

Hi there,
I have 1 copy of Win 10 Enterprise on NVME ssd. I reduced the main volume with Win 10 files to get a gape for a new copy of Win-sytem. That's it what I could. Could you please help me to install the second copy windows in this free space with an only circumstance is the loader must be installed on the USB stick.
I'm using grldr tool for multiboot, I can boot windows, linux, mac, dos, iso images...almost everything. For more info search google for grldr. Installation is simply and easy, just place things to C partition, edit menu.lst for your needs. Step 2 convert your partition c to nt52 with bootsect tool. Step 3 hexedit your partition c , you need to change NTLDR string to GRLDR in sector 1 and you are done, on next boot you can see bootmenu with all options defined in menu.lst. You will get probably some problems like bootloop until you figure out how to add or change something in menu.lst but when you get it right you will go in love with grldr and its simplificity
