Installing Remix OS on the Chuwi Hi12 (While keeping Windows)

[Chris G]

Search the internet, there are some guides. The main issue I see is Realtek wifi and audio drive issues in Remix mean no sound and wifi. For now, seems kinda of pointless. Our best bet is to wait. Chuwi will be releasing a Hi12 / Remix OS 2.0 dual boot version soon. Within weeks apparently. Let’s hope they release the files required so existing Hi12 dual os owners can flash WIn 10 and Remix OS.

There is something called google translate.

Chris G is right. I spent long hours playing with RemixOs, but no WiFi and no sound. Also, no touch. Remix runs pretty good, but the desktop version is not good for tablets!

The above image was released by official Chuwi manufacturer, they are sharing with the hi12 testers and reviwers for pre-release, they were running a campaign to reward the best reviwers. Should have all the drivers needed.

Might I ask that someone upload that file here or somewhere else? The download site is only giving me “save to cloud” options and I’d rather not register with that site if I don’t have to.

Its working really well

The only problem is it seems to have wiped my windows partition…. oops

I am going to play with it for a few days then reinstall windows

[Mickey Y]

If you read the instructions, There were two json files to use with the Android flash tool, one is to keep the windows partition(flash-no-erase-all.json), one is to wipe out windows (flash.json), use the correct file accordingly.

I think i downloaded the wrong file as I only have one Json

thee password ab85 is unfortunately not working now

@Mickey Y can you upload the flash-no-erase-all.json for us? as some of us cannot register a account to download
