I have lollipop rooted, unlock bootloader. 1050F
and OTG cable, PS/2 to USB cable (I can enter bios), usb 32GB
I searched. but, nowhere guide
Can I install windows on my Yoga table 2 10?
I regret that buying an Android version. I want windows 10..
and Can I come back to Android?
you cannot install windows on this model as it has an locked bootloader
you should not play with that stuff as when you use that way of accessing the bios you have no valid bootloader (as the ESP partition files are missing), and if for some reason the dnx protocol is screwed you will have no way of flashing anything and this means you will have an equivalent of a hardware bricked tablet (you will have to send it to Lenovo support)
the bios you are entering is useless as you cannot activate any option on it (you can only go Up/Down with volkeys on it) and the keyboard will not work as the driver for that is not activated (the keyboard works on this model only after a kernel is started)
ps. you do not have an unlocked bootloader, i thought we have already clarified that in the previous thread posts (rooted != unlocked)
ps2. why should one want a windows on a tablet beats me (is the same as having a linux only), attaching wings to a bicycle... how will you work with that? you will carry around a keyboard/mouse? for now android is, no matter of our love or hate for it, the best os choice for touch devices (phones/tablets), sure one can extend android with the linux arsenal of tools (or even have android running on linux , but that's another story)

thank you!
I think - If I can flashing(It is not the rooted) == unlocked, I was wrong.(think) now, I think my bootloader is locked or unlocked (check no way..)
I did not fully understand. but, I was most understanding.
Come to think, Android is also good.
It has been very helpful.
now, I will install Linux (on Android)
@ionioni, its funny u say all and had a thread with a solution. That's makes no sense. U was searching for testers and I write u a PN, nothing came back. U see the Community want it and searches for this. I think u just want some attention.
So please don't answer something like this. I have time now and search now my own solution.
In my eyes u are a liar.

the fact that you cannot read and understand (right) i guess has nothing to do with it
the thread you mention is closed (at my request) and one could understood that i no longer need testers (but i guess not you)
(ever heard of things like "this beta period has expired"?)
edit:
also, your lack of logic in considering that if i didn't answered your email it automatically means that what i told regarding unlocking wasn't true is impressive. and yes i have seen the email and choose to ignore it due to the many "U"'s and alike/worthless, all in all not what i needed. as said, the "beta" is over since the day i asked the mod to close the thread (and your marvel PM was sent a week after), however, at this moment, considering the low interest shown in "beta" and the i****s (what could be there?) like you i will not make the result public, instead i will distribute that based on my personal/confirmed people (for now only @workdowg) selection. i did this in a moment when i needed it for my own personal use and the fact that i did a call for testers was only a proof for my generosity
now go read a book ... your post above is a complete mess, one can very hard follow what you say, except that you're pissed

First - seems to me @ionioni was very polite stating why Windows cannot be installed on the Android versions of these tablets (which was the question). And the OP also responded thankfully.
Secondly - A liar??? His search for beta testers was disappointing. He only got 2 real responses ( myself - 1050F and 1 other 830F) that were willing to do the work a BETA tester needs to do to get results. Maybe (you?) and a few other basically said ... gimme, gimme.
And not for nothing the one guy did some testing and disappeared off the face of the Earth. And me... Well I'm unlocked and running Android ON Linux now. So the testing was a "partial success" (probably could work on all yt2 devices though).
Thank you, irrelevant rant over.
I said at first I will test, u thanked that post. Look in ur profile. Even that I don't care when my Device bricks, I had a ISP switch so I needed some time.
You are the Person that posted around that someone will test it. I said yes.
I never see something legit about this Y2 Linux thing. Just posts. I'm sorry that I hurt feelings when I said liar, but nothing came back to Community, expect, I have it, and a closed thread. We are small number of Members on this device. So don't close ur self in a house and say, I have it and u don't. This is just not fair.
I post the last time now, I can test all stuff u want on the 1050L!

And BTW, I'm not pissed, but XDA is always the same s**** over and over. Look at Bump for G3.
When u and workdog have a nice time together, it's OK.
And for the sentence read a book, I prefer u "Knigge" on page stands that a answer on letter is always needed.
This means, if u just answered me, and said, OK I have already a tester, I don't need one, I never created that post #3.
Gesendet von meinem LG-D855 mit Tapatalk
ok, this is my last action on your garbage... here or elsewhere
1. i never thanked you for anything, check (it's simple, just go here and click on 'Most thanked' you should be able to do it and while at this maybe you understand why i would have not accepted you as a tester anyways)
2. i don't/didn't have to prove anything to you or anybody else, this was my work and i get to choose who will benefit, you didn't hurt but my time that's wasted in writing this answer
3. i don't need you to test anything, you came too late anyways, the "beta" was closed and even if it weren't i wouldn't do it with you ( it's not just a matter of installing an app or flashing a rom)
4. yeah, workdowg is a cool guy and way way above the average "gimme gimme" user (i have worked well with him during the trials, although i have screwed/bricked things up at some point, but luckily he's a patient person) as most of the users in the threads know already
5. i don't have to answer your (expired) pm's more than i have to answer the spam in my email
6. you were the one who started ranting in this thread on a completely off-topic subject about something that nobody asked/cared about i.e. how frustrated you are about this and that (btw the post is #4)
have a nice life
U are a little bit offense my friend.
Last post to this story, a answere that the thread was closed, because!!! U have enough testers, will be a other thing as just closing it.
The resoan why don't want me as tester, Is nothing about i care! I have 3000 post on a German forum, have a knowledge over Android, I can made own stuff etc. So please stop too call me between the sentences as a stupid User that just want the stuff. I
And in not that type of user as u call me, I donate a coffee or beer for good stuff on XDA like Bump.

Asus and Sony have provided guides and programs to unlock the bootloader of its products. We ask Lenovo to release the process to unlock the tablet.
Any update on the situation now that we have a bootloader unlock method?

Yes.
Okay. bootloader can be unlocked, Bios can be activated and menues can be choosen. Is that right? Im not familiar with the tablets bios/uefi but couldn't there be any chance to boot any windows version (internal/external)? Maybe , now that it apears that other linux versions can be installed, is it possible to install even something like a grub bootloader and then manage to boot to windows? Perhaps this is a bit to naiv to say but there seems to be a small chance.
Just picked up a 1050f cheap ($50AU) and my first 'how to get Windows installed' lead to this. Is it even possible?
I just found this thread, becuase I got an Lenovo Tablet 2 as a present from my sister.
After searching around, I found the bootloader-unlock by surdu_petru.
Also I found out that you can change settings in the bios with the lollipop-system.
So shouldn't we now be able to install Windows/Linux on this tablet.
Shouldn't we now be able to flash a dd-image from any Lenovo Tab 2 Windows, and boot it ?

we can install linux, but with android...
Run Linux with Android. Search Android on Linux (AoL), now I use tablet. therefore I difficulty upload Link.
and maybe.. current We haven't grapical card driver for Linux. (need porting)

Thank you for your post, @neverapple88
I know about A.O.L .. and there is no installer downoadable anymore. I think it's a great idear and shows how powerful and versatile our device is.
I think that you could use aol to repartition or device and boot windows with it, but the rist in bricking the device is very very high.
It's really a shame, that lenovo did not include the usb-drivers into the bios, because now you should only be able to boot things on the internal storage.
Also the Bios has a file manager, but cant show any files :/
btw. the DEV-Thread only talks about using ubuntu to compile the cyanogenmod rom

Root your phone without unlocking the bootloader. How? A new application called UnlockRoot does it all for you! Literally, all you need to do is download the UnlockRoot.exe, run it and enjoy your new rooted device. I can confirm that it is 100% working and took about 2 minutes from start to finish.
All you have to do is connect to your computer, enable USB debugging which is accessible through Settings>applications>devlopment>USB debugging
open UnlockRoot.exe and click root, after that it should take the comp. 1 min tounlock then 1 min to reboot then voila you have it rooted! You will then see the superuser app inside your app drawer. I recommend you to download busybox and titanium backup to have full control on your device. I've just rooted my xperia play and my wife's arc s using method. Both of them are running v2.3.4 so this should work on lower versions.
If there will be an instance wherein your device didn't reboot automatically,manually restart your device.

IT show support for the Kindle Fire. Anyone try it?

First of all that is not my site and i'm not a spammer. I only posted this method in two different forums,the other one is in the android general hacking tips. The only reason why i mentioned the site is because i'm having problems uploading the unlockroot.exe launcher in this thread. As you can see,i'm only a new member and i don't usually start threads. I'm just trying to help because i had a lot of frustrations using other rooting methods. I have a descent job and i'm not gonna benefit in spamming so don't accuse me. I just felt very excited to share this method as this worked like a charm for my xperia play. I'm not forcing you to try this so ban me if you feel like doing so.

I noticed that too but trust me,it worked for my xperia play and my wife's arc s. Both of them are running the latest android v2.3.4 that's why i'm very surprised that it worked. Other rooting methods didn't work for that version so i resorted to doomlord's method but i'm having problems installing the adb drivers as i'm using windows7. I'm so happy using this method because it's very safe,no need to unlock your bootloader. Best regards!

No, offense, but if you post directly to their home site, it makes it seem a lot more legit than just posting a link to your download account.

Sorry bro but i already did that when i started this thread. I just edited my post because that d31boy guy is accussing me of being a spammer and just promoting that site.
When I see a brand new poster posting a link to relatively unknown website for use of an unknown exe file, it's hard not to be suspicious. I mean, you obviously know the benefits of root and you know your way around this site. The site has absolutely no mention of how the root is applied (which isn't your fault provided you don't have an affiliation to the site ). It's a pretty big leap of faith.
However, I may have jumped in a bit too quick on this one. It would have been better just to report the post and allow a mod to make a more informed decision. For that, I apologise.
All this method is, is the zergRush method with a different name...
Here's what I did (quick run thought of what i did, attached screenshot for reference)
Downloaded it from the OP's post (http://unlockroot.com was running at 2000BYTES/SEC)
Installed it on my XP partition
rebooted, went to my linux partition
Mounted XP Partition
went to \Program Files\Unlockroot\tools\
Copied rootutility to /home/myusername/
adb shell rm -r /data/local/tmp
adb shell mkdir /data/local/tmp
adb push rootutility /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rootutility
adb shell /data/local/rootutility
and got the attachment

Over the internet there are various guides teaching the lesson 'how to get out of a soft brick.' Some guides can be hard to follow and very hoarse leaving a noob feeling like he/she has destroyed their device. Fear Not.This is a comprehensive guide for less experienced users who happen to find themselves in a soft brick.
Dictionary - Soft brick - the phone can still boot, and be flashed easily but in its current state is unusable.
- Hard brick - the phone cannot boot and requires additional devices to do so (USB Jig, Riffbox).
This is the quickest escape route on the interweb and you will be done in no time. Here we go:
First Download Flashtool. Here (You may download any version from the previous versions tab.)
Install Flashtool.
Find the stock firmware for your device. For the x8
E15i android 2.1.1 http://www.multiupload.com/VKNI6Q6ET5 (2.1.1.C.0.0 latest firmware)
Dictionary - stock firmware - latest version of software released by the manufacturer
After downloading the firmware. Extract the file. You will be left with a firmware file with .ftf as the ending.
Go into 'my computer' then 'flashtool' folder then 'firmware'. Then copy the .ftf file into that folder.
Close the folder.
Now to make sure that your phone is recognized by flashtool, go into computer then flashtool then drivers.
Now Install the driver for the x8.
Connect your x8 to your computer.
open the Flashtool program.
Click the bolt icon in the top left.
Select the name of the firmware you downloaded (2.1.1.C.0.0) in the left panel. it will highlight blue.
Click ok (bottom right).
A box will appear telling you to put your device into flash mode. Follow the instructions it gives.
Once this is done the box will dissapear and firmware will flash.
Finally device will reboot and phone will be back to normal.
Congratulations you have unbricked your device.
I hope you found this useful. Please thank me using the button if you appreciate my efforts. #
This is my first guide. Tell me what you think. Anything I could improve.
Very good guide, cause didn't know yet about this..very thanks..:thumbup:
Sent from my XPERIA X8 using xda premium
nice and quick guide, i guess that what a paniced newbie search for!
suggestion:i think you should add about the installation of drivers,as many users come here telling that their phones is not recognized by flashtool
also change the 4-noobs at the title, is kidda disturbing...put "for" instaid of 4
There is about 100 threads about that. Just color of text and size is diferent!

Thankyou for everyone's support. I have changed the '4' to 'for' in the title as suggested by stamatis16.

As someone who studied psychology, I know that people learn in very different ways. A guide from someone else may not help a certain person. Different fonts evoke different responses and speeds of learning. Different colours do similar things too. So in response to the 'there are millions of guides' argument, I say . Everyone learns differently and this may help someone desperate more effectively than any other. I know that when I needed this help none of the guides were as simple as the one I have composed.
In addition to this, please remember, I am spending my personal time to aid others. So negative flaming saying that my posts are 'not really helping' is always a let-down.
Thankyou once again for the support.
Special thanks lyhengboy stamatis16 for comments.
Guys, think of it this way. Its better for someone to make a new thread which will prevent 2000 threads asking the same topic.
Hmm OP can we merge this topic with the existing one with Lucas? You can always PM him for ideas
For now I agree that it is somehow odd to create extra thread for the same purpose for noob knowing that there is already an existing one. Very nice purpose but we need to be organized as well hugs.

I can understand that but I have clearly highlighted in my post before this one why I made a new thread. Please read it if you have not.
Also I would like to have my own 'branding' if you like, of guides and reviews. I try to spice each one up differently to combat that argument.
Thankyou very much for being kind when posting. :laugh: Sorry if I come across as rude, I do not mean to be this way.
Q:Hmm OP can we merge this topic with the existing one with Lucas? we need to be organized as well
A: I would be very sad if you were to delete or move or zap this thread for the reasons you mention above. I have spent great periods of time composing and tailor making this for certain users. As a RC I hope you can understand my reasoning.
Thankyou once again.
EDIT: I have changed the title to make it seem 'different'. I also want to mention my 'dictionary' feature. I think this is different and may help my argument.
I fully understand you. Thy will be done
Can someone with a soft bricked X8 let me know if its possible to boot into safe mode?
Hold menu when booting.
Thankyou. I was a bit scared when you said you wanted to remove this post and 'merge it with another.' Great to know you are so supportive.
Yes, please do not merge this. I have benefited allot from this post. Merging it I think will take out the time put into to this. Plus, other people may not see this. I am happy the op decided not to merge.

I don't have a soft or a hard brick. But I acknoledge you made a great guide and thank you anyway.
It was also useful because I am still considering if I should root my Galaxy Ace Duos GT-S6802 or not. And this made me realize that even if it bricks, it can be reverted. Do you have any idea if a hard brick is reversible? Also, in worst case scenario, can I simply download the software from samsung site and install it? Thanks. And sorry if I broke any rules here, I'm still a noob (still scared by the introdutory video haha)

Hey Guys
I recently heared about the MULTI ROM And I really like it
But When I Installed it says that our device isn't supported :crying::crying:
And The End It Says if U want to develop MultiRom for your Device , The MultiRom Wiki Page Is GooD Is UR Place To Start
Link : https://github.com/Tasssadar/multirom/wiki/Porting-MultiROM
:highfive::highfive:
AS I am not a dev. I am Asking :angel::angel: OUR GREAT DEVS. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed: To Port It For Us !! ( @pawitp , @k2wl , @jackeagle , @xenon92 , @codekidX , @Any other great dev. I haven't mention ) I am SURE That U can do it if you become a group
What Do U Think ????
THX
Dude currently multirom supports very few devices.
How could you install something without confirming if it supports your phone or not? It shows absolute ignorance on your part. If it included some other method like flashing, you could have bricked your phone. Do not blindly do anything in future.
Well now back to topic, multirom is basically similar to dualboot.
And many people have dualboot problems with pc itself. Now what would you expect from this in android? I would expect a lot of roms( read all latest roms) to be incompatible with multirom+more usage of precious system space(which we are all kinda low on).
As for developing, our developers may give it a try if they have nothing else to do. But i dont think this is the case,as you can see all lead developers are maintaining and building seperate roms of their own directly from source. Thats a herculean task.
The rest is in their hands. All i am saying is that dont expect a affirmative reply.

Dude currently multirom supports very few devices.
How could you install something without confirming if it supports your phone or not? It shows absolute ignorance on your part. If it included some other method like flashing, you could have bricked your phone. Do not blindly do anything in future.

I did install the app on the device but didn't install DUAL BOOT its self due it is not supported !
How Can I Brick My Device AS I didn't and can't install it !!!!!! :silly::silly:
Not Every One Can Use DUAL Boot ( For Me It Is Easy ) But They Can LEARN :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
And As Our Devs. Who Will Develop It I am Sure he Will MAKE It at least Compatible With His ROMS
As For STORAGE : U can use a MICRO SD CARD or Check Out @k2wl tutorial for increasing the SPACE !!!! :good:
I am not forcing the DEVS. to make it ready after 24 hours !!
If U read the post I Sais " I am ASKING "
And Really Appreciate their hard work on 5.0 LOLLIPOP !!!!! THX FOR ALL DEVS
GOOD LUCK :angel::angel:
You couldnt dual boot coz it didnt support. No use lamenting here about it coz it was your fault, u should have checked for supported device.
So i am assuming you will install just abouy any new interesting feature u find, without even knowing what it could do to your phone. In your case, it did nothing. I am saying it could have corrupted your phone(had it been something else, say, for explanations sake, a zip file. Now zip files replace things in your phone. Something could have gone wrong).
What i am coming to say is do not try anything new without knowing its compatibility, and then come crying here and saying that it did not work.

Hello All,
With all the chatters about rooting available for both Xperia z3+ dual and single sim, I thought it would be appropriate to start a thread where noobs may be able to get information regarding the root status of the phone.
Can someone please explain to me (and other noobs, if there are any,) what is the current status? I'm particular interested in the E6533 Dual Sim version with Build Number 32.1.A.1.185. since that is the model of my phone. If there is a tutorial I would be forever grateful if someone can be kind enough to link it here. Thank you all so much, this community is awesome!
I have that phon
I have that phon and I try all rooted kernels but mobile hangs and random reboot I return it to factory reset by flashboot and work some time good then make reboot it seems the developers don't work on dual sim phone sorry for my bad English
So essentially no root for the dual sim? :'(
That would be great if someone writes some "How-to..." Root and Backup and wth are those "different partitions", i think you should backup some of them before doing anything else. I am not a beginner with Android and Rooting and so on, but i come from HTC and this is my first Sony Phone and its really different. I know that there are severall Threads about this, but all the informations are split into a dozend threads and if you are a beginner with Sony its really hard to understand what is the "actually" best you can do.
Great topic, I would also like to know how to. Dont want to lose some goodies such as the excellent noise cancelation and the cameras many functions
Guys, that topic we have already had a number of times. Please use the search function and find (also for the Dual-SIM):

That is basically the problem. These "tutorials" are hidden in several threads and not visible to everybody. Of course you can use the search function and it's highly encouraged to do that. But at the same time we need somebody that has successfully rooted this phone to write a proper decently up-to-date "how to" thread so that everybody knows that they can find the necessary steps to root/backup/etc. their device successfully. Although, OP says noob friendly, I think it's also enough if anyone can follow the steps without hassle and getting lost quickly (understandable = decent English). I mean, I don't force anybody to do this, but it would be highly appreciated by many other users if somebody could take the time to create it.

So step one doesnt work, it says device not working.
Would appreciate it too if someone could make an easier tutorial. but i guess the support for z3+ is just not there.

I have successfully rooted the phone with TA backup, recovery and root for a few weeks now and I have zero problems. I wrote a guide for tablet z4 in its general forum. The procedure is a bit different for z3+. If there is a need for it and I have time today I will do the same for this phone and post it in the general forum.

Since we now have a working "TWRP", it would be great to have a real Custom ROM. Not to degrade xXx and the other Magisk "ROMs" (using xXx now), but TWRP flash-able ROMs would be great.

You are risking lots with the Chinese version. Not being able to see source , you could be dealing with malware etc

I scanned the package with viruse and malware software.
Are there any limitations or dangers with that version we should know about? I'd risk it just for the ability to make a solid backup right now.
Can anyone point me in the right direction without breaking XDA policy??

If itnwas safe then why haven't the main devs pick it up
Oh cuz they can't see source. You have no idea what could be loaded in there. Whether it works or not. The point is there COULD be malware or spyware or whatever loaded and you would have no idea

Let me ask you a question. How do you know that normal open-source TWRP doesn't have malware in it?
The reason why 'main devs' as you call them won't accept it, is because of licensing and money. And also embarrassment because they can't figure out how to get a version booting.
The wonderful thing is we can all do what we wish to do. you can use ADB and make your life infinitely harder, and I'll keep using TWRP and accomplish things in a fraction of the time.

just to let you know as most of us devs live here on xda and our friends are devs and are working our asses off to get things going like our main twrp dev who has always provided us with twrp since op6 and is working on it now for 3 different devices which now is super hard being our current partitions and such . ... .

There you go again. You're not a developer ... And why do you care if somebody uses something that's making their life easier?
In case you can't tell the 7t pro still doesn't have a working TWRP. 8 whole months later. There's a working TWRP for OnePlus 8 pro right now. why do you care if someone is using it? How is using a Chinese TWRP going to hurt development? It's not. I'm going to share it with each and every person that asks for i. Because we deserve to use something beyond crappy ADB.
Chinese recovery works just fine. I was running custom TWRP recovery by this Chinese locked LR. Team two years ago on my Xiaomi Mi Pad, and nothing wrong happened. You all could wait year or more for official relase as development is going very slow, or enjoy it now.
