[GUIDE] Installing Windows 8 using USB Drive and Dual Booting on Windows 7 - Windows 8 Development and Hacking

Please lower the volume down. I'ts a little bit noisy. Thanks.
In this video, I am going to install Windows 8 from using UltraISO, to installing Windows 8 in continuous 46 minutes video. There will be some little captions telling what I'm trying to do or what I was doing.
so I'll be showing:
- UltraISO
selecting ISO
writing files from ISO to USB drive
- Selecting USB to boot
- Installing Windows 8
- Showing the dual boot screen
- Seting up the Windows 8 for the firstime
- Seting up my dual monitor in Windows 8
- Playing with the apps and features
IE
Video
Music
Pictures
Messaging
Mail
- Enabling Administrator mode
- Installing my System Power application
- Showing who boots faster

Strange, it worked with USB drive for me

I tired to install windows 8 by way of usb flash drive method. I got as far as to which drive i wanted to install windows 8 on i have 2 hard drives 1 tb and a 1.5tb i formatted both drives thinking this program was gonna install then the install failed said something about being unable to install. I was pissed off then i had to reinstall windows 7 Ultimate all over again. My flash drives are 16GB and a 4Gb and the 16GB had the windows 8 software on it.

That never worked for me. I always look for an easy way of doing things but it keeps failing so I end up doing the long way, but I think it's much safer and at least you know what's happening.

Man .. at least think of what happened first then try to do it all over again, try different flash drives, make a 2 copies and use the other one if the other one failed. Some files might be corrupted while you're on the process of transferring files from the ISO to flash drive.
Making a video is more frustrating than installing.

I never had that problem though. I have my windows 7 installed on SATA 1 with two partitions and installed on partition 1 and windows 8 on SATA 2 with also 2 partitions.and w8 is installed on partition 2. quite a complicated drive setup.

thanks guys will try this later on tonight when i get off from work.

I'll try to use the old Win7/Vista method (format thumb drive to FAT, write to the boot sector using bootsect.exe then copying the installation files from the ISO) to install the RTM (still downloading it, will need at least 3 days to finish it).
BTW, I used Windows 7's native burner to create the installer DVD. Windows 7 can natively burn ISO's and retain the bootable info from the ISO.

I can put the ISO to USB drive with Windows 7 USB Tool (or something like that), but the win8 won't boot at all after (halfway) installed. looks like display driver issue to me ... d*mn ....

OPEN CMD
1. diskpart
2. list disk
3. select disk x (où x est le numéro de votre clé USB)
4. clean
5. create partition primary
6. active
7. format fs=fat32 quick
8. assign
Put the file inside from CD or ISO.
Restart your PC and tape touch to run option boot, check your usb drive...
and install it...

[Q] UBUNTU

Im thinking of installing UBUNTU on my PC i just need to know how it works will it get rid of my vista ? I only ask cuase my wife will kill me if it does.
Please help I want to learn how to do more with my phone and it seems that UBUNTU is the way to go i cant get anything to work right on vista .
Thanks for any help sorry Im such a noob.
You can dual boot a computer with the OS you currently have and Ubuntu. I did it for years before I purchased my MacBook in '09. I really enjoyed Ubuntu but it has been a while since I last used it.

Yeah, you can add it as a dual boot, which is how most people do it.

When you run the CD, you *should* be prompted to choose to dual boot or not, if I remember correctly.

Correct. Make sure to hit the "install with" and not to reformat the hard drive. If you reformat the hard drive it will erase windows. I ran dual boot for a couple months then finally decided to get rid if windows all together and stick with Linux/Ubuntu. (Great decision by the way)

A dual boot system isn't hard to do if you are installing both os's onto a harddrive that has been pre-partitioned to accomodate both.
If you set up a dual boot using the existing free space on your harddrive, you have to partition that free space for the other os and if it's not enough you can run out of space fast.
The easiest way for you since you stated you are new to this is to use a virtual machine such as vmware, virtual box, or cygwin and load ubuntu in that. In vmachines the image for the other os can be set to grow in size if it needs it.

How would I go about partitioning my harddrive I really want to use this and I've tried to install cygwin with no luck I must have done something wrong ?
Now I'm on the ubuntu site and there are different ways to do this it says download and install and there is another option to run it with windows. Now I can't use these without partitioning my harddrive I have like 100gb free memory left on there is that not allot and thanks for the help btw.

Vista has a disk management option that allows you to partition your disks.
Virtualbox is an easier setup for novices IMO but you still need to download the ubuntu iso to install into virtualbox.
Your 100GB free space can be used to make an 80GB partition for ubuntu which will be plenty. But I still suggest you use a virtual machine first before going the dual boot route.
Check dsixdas kitchen thread here in xda to get a tutorial on setting up ubuntu in virtualbox.
If you want to go dual boot, the best thing to do is read over the install instructions before you do anything so you're familiar with the steps. Google installing Ubuntu Dual Boot, too and you'll find a lot if info on how much space to set up for the Linux Partition, which, during install,m you have the choice to set yourself, or you can let the installer use a default size for the partition.
I remember I tried to do this on an old computer once.
Ended up overwriting windows and ****ed everything up. Especially since I couldn't even get Ubuntu to boot.
Might try it again and actually read some instructions first this time.
I just read this thread last night, and it inspired me to try dual booting Ubuntu. I had always wanted to try it, but never got around to reading up on it. Everything went smooth, and I'm now learning Ubuntu. Seems pretty nice so far, and installing it was a breeze for me. Nothing got jacked up, which is always good!

I still didn't get to try it out but what method did you use it sound like what I'm looking to do ?

It is really nice to have access to both. I had to use my Ubuntu install to Root my EVO. It wouldn't work in Windows, so having a choice was great.
There's a lot to learn with Linux, in general, the command lines, etc, just Google as much as you can, and you'll find all the answers you need.
Also #Ubuntu on IRC is a great place to ask questions.
You people are nubs
Use the install inside windows option.... it will allow you to install ubuntu from within windows and DO ALL THE WORK for you...it adds ubuntu as a second boot option sindie of windows's bootloader... it will boot primarily into windows and at the boot screen after turning your comp on just press down and select the second option which would be ubuntu.
If you need any help just pm me. I have this set up running and ubuntu on my ext hard drive as well.
surprising that nobody's said this is a phone forum yet. this is a good thing. and i've asked more off topic...
either way, i've been trying for a while and haven't been able to install it on my late 09 imac. i mean i've tried forrever and still can't get it. anybody kno?

They have done away with usb mass storage in JB and gone to MTP storage. A decent work around is to mount with CWM recovery or TWRP recovery

Wanted: Asus VivoTab RT Recovery Files to download

My Asus VivoTab RT 64GB is playing up and I cannot refresh or reinstall the OS as I get an Insert Media missing files error (see photo). Obviously Windows RT tablets don't come with external media with the OS.
I would be eternally grateful if someone could copy the recovery files to a usb (an option given in the OS) and then upload the file to either skydrive, drop box or other host for me to download. Once downloaded, the file can be deleted from the host. I think the file is between 3.5gigs and 4gigs. I could then re host it for anyone else who needs it.
Please, I have contributed a lot to the xda forum and would really appreciate some help.
FYI I had sent my tab to Asus for repair and it came back with the ability to not be able to refresh pc and I am furious. I don't want to send it off again and be without it again for another two weeks.
Thank you!

Sorry, I don't have the tablet, otherwise I'd be glad to help.
I have the x86 Windows 8, and it has the option to create recovery media (I used USB). I gather this is how one would create the files you need? It is probably a stupid idea, but have you tried creating a recovery media (assuming you can get to those menus)? The recovery data should be somewhere on the disk, so it might work.

I plugged in a usb to make a recovery usb but it only copies files to boot up and not all 3.5 gigs worth. The option to copy the recovery partition to usb is greyed out so I cant check it. When I use Disk Management, the recovery partition reports 4 gigs and is healthy so can't on earth figure out why I cant make a recovery usb. is there a way to show the recovery folder and manually copy the files? I uses security tab to get adminsterative rights to show the recovery folder in C:\ but the folder is empty.

Any clues, any one?
That´s a bit tricky. It depends what you are going to do and on what S3 Rom you are at the moment.
For KitKat Rom there are 2 USB Modi for the S3.
USB Storage : Direct connection to the SD card. Windows needs no driver.
MTP : Connection to internal S3 RAM and SD card. Windows needs driver. Look in optional drivers in Windows update for AyunOS driver.
This 2 modi can be chosed, when you connect the S3 viy USB wire.
For Lollipop ROM the USB Storage mode isn´t working right now.
For MTP you should find a driver in Windows update too, but i don´t use Win10.
Last but not least driver for SP Flashtool. SPF needs a special driver (VCOM-Driver). More tricky to install, but you can find information
and how-to on google and youtube.

Thanks for replying! I have the stock OS, KitKat, so it seems like I should be able to connect - I think there must be a problem with my laptop in that case, I will have a look in device manager and event viewer and see if I can figure out what's happening.
Out of interest, what is the status of Lollipop on the S3?
Thanks!

Do you hear the windows sound when connecting the S3? If not try a different USB port on the laptop.
There are 3 official Lollipop ROM right now. All 3 are good, with minor bugs. LL5.1 NewUI is for the chinese,
so a lot of chinese crap with it. I´m on Xtreme from TF right now for 3 days and pretty happy with it.
For more information read the last 20 pages of the monster thread above.
Ok, yes, I get the sound. Trying a different port does yield a slightly different result - if I connect in USB storage mode I see a new drive in Windows Explorer ("Removable Disk (E"), but if I try to open it Windows tells me to insert a disk. In MTP mode I see 'S3' in Explorer, and if I open that I see the phone memory and the SD card. This seems mostly ok, although it can get really slow.

Ok, MTP is working good. If it´s slow, then your SD is slow.
For USB Storage : What file system do you have on the SD?
I don't actually know, is there an easy way to find out?

Jap, either you use an external partition manager or from windows "disk management".
Also you can left click the drive, right click -> properties -> also shows the type of partition.
If you don´t see a partition type under windows, chances are its a linux/android one.
Check it with Linux or download the app "aparted" from playstore, so you can check it
with the smartphone.

I didn't install any drivers on Win 10 laptop, S3 (on KK) connects without any problem either with MPT or USB (only mSD visible) selected...

I wonder if it's the file system type of my SD card, Windows Explorer shows nothing when I attach it via a USB adapter to my laptop?

Accelerometer is a sensor that defines a devices's position, so it gives you ability to use such functions as screen auto-rotation. And the bug is that sometimes this sensor stops working until the next reboot.
1-After format the SD with cm13, then how to back to normal SD?
2-Is right that if we use sd like part of system we can't use real system memory?
3-After formatting SD (with cm13) for using it like part of system, if we try to put it in PC and then back in the phone, it's real that the SD automatically delete all file inside it because was encrypted?
4-Can we store file like music, photo, video... on SD or it's only for app?
5-If for example i break my phone and put SD in an other phone what happen?
I know that are a lot of question but i hope someone can answer

1. Settings > Storage & USB > sdcard > menu > Format as portable
2. No, sdcard space magically adds to real internal
3. Of course no.
4. From phone: yes, photos goes there
From PC: unknown, because MTP broken now. But probably yes.
5. Data will be unaccessable because partition encrypted.
And formatted in unusual way - Windows anyway can't deal with it.
Card supposed to work only with ROM where was adopted (key stored)
UPD: it somehow works in other phone
You can format back it into FAT32 via Explorer or some partition manager.
Also seems this feature still semi-broken: large games won't install.
Maybe PecanCM can fix it.

And formatted in ext4 - Windows anyway can't read it by default.

Are you serious? I even successfully tried creating folder via it. Did you switched from Charge only mode to MTP? 'Cause in charge-only mode MTP device is recognized, but it is empty, without available storages. Or maybe for you it doesn't work because of Windows crappiness, lol. Linux is more friendly with Linux.

Yes, I selected MTP and use Windows.
Just empty window.
@FindYanot somehow managed it to work on Win 10 after enabing / disabling USB debugging.
Anyway good, that MTP not completly broken.

There are often problems with Android on Windows that are absent on Linux. I had irritating issues with UMS mode in TWRP when I was using Windows (more strange is that it worked earlier and then suddenly my PC went insane when connecting USB in TWRP with storage mode enabled), but on Linux it works like a charm. And it is not the only example of problems in Android-Windows "relationship".
Guys I flashed the rom and it booted as usual and i went to next page of the setup guide i.e. add wifi in that i tried connecting to my wifi but while entering the password it shows unfortunately, aosp keyboard has stopped after i removed my wifi password and connected then it goes again to the first page of selecting country and i repeatedly pressed the yellow icon to proceed to the next page but its stucked on that page plz help me guys and do i need to do anything else?

Oh, there are a bunch! Wondering how it'll fare with the Android File Transfer on Mac. �� At least, ADB works, right? I need to update a few of my apps to support Marshmallow since they removed the Apache HTTP client (Google, must you really make things difficult? I spent an hour yesterday writing 75 lines of code just to add dividers between RecyclerView items... SMH). I'll most probably be shifting back to Lollipop AOSP by tonight. Anyway, if MTP works, I'll update you guys...
EDIT: So, no. Unfortunately, doesn't work on OS X as well. I didn't really expect it to, but then I was hoping that since it was UNIX, it would.
EDIT 2: So, it works with OS X as well! I hadn't selected the USB to transfer files previously.
