Has anyone tried installing android for a dual boot?

I personally see no reason why Android X86 shouldn't run. Just install it. x3I run it on a Haswell i5 laptop, everything works, my touchscreen, wifi, audio, bt.4.4 RC1 definitely supports Haswell, as for this tablet..? I'm not sure, but I see no reason why not, as I said. x3

Look up AmiDuOS. People are having much success with it as an emulator. Much better than BlueStacks.

To install android, you need a firmware, and that's not publically available. You might get android to run in a VM since the Atom does support virtualization.

You best bet is to try Bluestacks, works way better at apps like candy crush saga, clash of clans, and other apps than android x86. But you have to install "sponsored" apps for the "free" version every day, which you can uninstall right after, or you pay the $2 a month.

Nope. I wish. I still need a bumper. Not worth it. You have to do so much and install so much in order to down android applications on an android device. It's pretty much all for Nabi only. I wish I could send it back.

If you are not planning to have a Dual Windows/GNU Linux Boot, you'll have no problem. I installed Ubuntu,Xubuntu and Mint. I finally left Mint as it had the least problems with the dual boot. (I use Windows only because of Microsoft Flight Simulator)

check Android Froyo capabilities. That's the Android OS version running in the device.

I have not looked into this, however, being an Android unit downloading is super simple. Game away!

nope tried it and it would not show up in the device manager. So the software could not be installed since the motherboard could not see it. I tried two different ones and both would not show up as a device.

Yeah you can. But you might not be able to find the app you need on the Google play store so in that case you just Google search for the actual app and install it individually. I don't use it personally but anything is possible with android.

Can't answer your question, because mine was not hard bricked. But service worked for me. I would check Android forums for advice.

Yes, the Android OS that comes with the phone allready has Google Play. Therefore you dont have to install it, just access it directly through your phone.

Bad install. Simple there. If Droid isn't dead on the screen (Yeah, it's like apple in a way) or had the Droid gutted open when you boot up, there is a software problem. Take it back. Someone going to say a hardware I can see it coming, but if the soft can't figure it out, then its a software issue.

Not sure about Android. However, I have successfully installed Windows 8 on this machine and it works rather well. You will need to download or find on the net all all of the Windows 7 drivers. Then you will need the ISO image install of Windows 8. Install the basic OS and then the drivers. It is somewhat tricky to do. Google it for help. Once it is working it makes a great Windows 8 PC. Good luck.

The windows 8.1 version of this tablet comes with M$-Office. If you are a bit handy, it would seem not too difficult to make a dual boot machine if you bought the Windows model w the free office and install Android 4.4.4. the issue may be hard drive space for personal documents, though that could always be stored on a flash card of any huge size.

I've used it with Android on my Note 3 and with whatever distro Symantec uses (I think it's Thinstation) for their Ghost boot disk. Android needed to be rooted and I needed an additional app to configure it but the other one was fine and configured automatically. In short, most modern distros will probably work ok with it.
