yeah signed up for the beta long ago when they showed this at CES and from what i've gathered here in the main android forum, no one new has gotten into the beta at all.
sucks just need ot release the thing or invite more ppl in the beta, or least give an update. you delay too long and you will be forever playing catchup to the newer OS's

Windows 8 on galaxy s

Hi there ..... I know that this is the most stupid post you ever seen, but after seeing a galaxy note running windows 8 on it on youtube, I am asking if there is any possibility to have it on our device even in the far future

in dev section ?

How can one become a senior member and then post a Q/A in dev section?

There is no Windows running on that galaxy note. Just the screen from a distant PC is sent to the Galaxy: splashscreen
You can remote control your PC running WIndows 8 through this Galaxy App....

If it's the same video I just watched then he's not really running Windows 8. He's using Splashtop Streamer to stream his pc running Windows 8 to his phone.

if u meant this http://youtu.be/ODo2In7nEng then its Splashtop Remote, a VNC/RDP client that allows users to access and control their computer remotely through a mobile device running iOS or Android... win 8 isn't actually installed in note.for more info go here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splashtop.remote... have a nice day...

easy bro. install remote desktop client. tadaaa !!!
enjoy windows 8 on the 4" screen. make sure u bring magnifying glass.

Might be Windows 8 will support it.
Sammy prepared phone win Win 8.
If exist driver for Exinos platform in Win8 - it is POSSIBLE to write loader to load windows, why not?
See HTC HD2 as example - it can run as Android so Windows Phone as well

You sad it about Omnia, i am speaking about HTC HD2 - can not see connection
I am saying, HTC HD2 was build as Windows Mobile.
One great person (from Russia BTW) - hack boot loader, made OWN loader - MagLDR - that can load Android or Windows Phone 7.
So it is POSSIBLE to somehow run WP on phones, not designed for it.
Though writing such a complicate code, and in such a dangerous place as bootloader (may kill phone forever) very, VERY hard task

Well ATIV line of product is pretty much the WP8 cousin of Galaxy line. If you look closely, Galaxy ATIV is S3 hardware with WP8 installed and some minor changes.

Why? Just look at the upcoming windows phone 8 devices.

Everything is possible with proper sources (bootloader and drivers). Without them not possible.

Why would you want to offend your SGS3 by putting Windows Phone on it? Why not try putting iOS there while you're at it?!

That's just silly.
But for those saying that WP8 can be run on the SGS3, I'm afraid you're mistaken. The i9300 uses a Samsung Exynos Quadcore while the ATIV S will use a Qualcomm Snapdragon Dual-Care. There will most likely never be a Windows Phone 8 device with the same SoC found in the international SGS3.
The US versions could have more luck as they indeed do have the same CPU as the ATIV S and thus that a much better chance of getting drivers that work for them also.

Could you give me more information? Thanks

But would love later on to have it on my Note2 with the vig screen..

I'd like to see Ubuntu on the Note 2 as well, in the future.
If it's not too much to ask, I'd like to tri-boot my Note 2 with Android, Windows Phone and Ubuntu.
If a tri-booted phone like that can't get you laid, nothing can.

Source code is out and the porting guide will be out tomorrow. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
It's based on the AOSP android Kernel and drivers. So porting it for the Note should be pretty easy. They went with the same approach as Firefox did. I might even give this a try myself.
For anyone else that will attempting this port or that of Firefox os , build against Cyanogen source and not the Samsung one.

It is actually based on Cyanogen mod and not AOSP.

Win 8.1 rtm

I am having a boring afternoon and thinking about playing with 8.1 release to manufacturing version on my Acer Iconina w3.
Any advice on the risk or installing this versus just waiting for another month to get the release version?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium HD app

If you have no reason to install it and are unsure on the risks, I would advise just waiting.

Actually, you missed one possibility. If you're installing this on a "sandbox" with the known intention that it won't be for long, go to town. If you're considering installing for daily use without having to start over later.... yeah, you probably want to wait.
Hence why I put 8.1 on the build box and 7 Ultimate on the new "family" box... for now.

Note that the reply wasn't aimed towards you.
But to answer legitimate or not. Some people do have it legitimately, RTM is given to quite a few people legitimately early (not just manufacturers, several of the library computers at my university have it via microsoft directly). The copy these guys are using, not so legitimate.

RTM is what you'll see available to the public very soon. It's no different to the retail version.

I have legit access. I haven't bothered, turns out the university can give people copies of 8.1 pro (although that probably comes under MSDN). I'm perfectly happy with 8.0, see little improvement for me in 8.1 (I have no desire to see the start button back), I'll probably just wait a few weeks and get it via windows update.

It may be Dreamspark, and you may be entitled to a heck of a lot more software if so! Depending on what a university agrees to it could include Visual Studio, Office, etc. Worth finding out for sure.

I have dreamspark already, mine doesn't have Windows 8 or office in it though. Does have visual studio and windows server 2012 though, must try out the latter (already use visual studio heavily). Mine wasn't university issued though, havent been in a rush to check that out with uni as I have windows 8 and don't use ms office (use libre office instead, ms office is better overall but libre does the job fine), I will check it out eventually though.

Quick question. If I install the preview today, well I still be able to install the real thing on Thursday? I'm bored and feel like playing around.

If you install the preview then you can't update to 8.1. You would need to do a full install.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I thought they had changed it so you could do, so many mixed messages :lol:
Personally I'm already running the RTM that was leaked a while back so makes no odds to me, I'll just grab the official ISO's when they land and add them to my ISO store and carry on as I am currently.

That's for RT... it's possible via a bit of a hack on x86, but I can't recommend it.

So I'm getting an"autorun.dll could not be loaded" error message when trying to install the preview. Anyone know how to fix it?

Are you trying to install from within Windows?
That's the only case I can think where it would try to use Autorun.
Try booting instead straight to USB/CD and installing that way.
