X80 Plus (H6C3) no longer boots to Android

[Edwin]

My new model (H6C3) X80 Plus bricked Windows after trying (automatically) and failing to install the Anniversary update (It got stuck at 6%, and after 12 hours in this state I decided to power-cycle it). I’ve managed, after a struggle, to re-install Windows 10 using the guides here, but it took a lot of effort and file tweaking.

Unfortunately I can no longer get into Android. I do get the dual-boot screen, but when I select Android I get the Windows crash screen that is characterised in the first stage of the Windows re-installation. I’m guessing that partitions have got garbled. Is there any way I can tweak the dual boot to look for another partition, or worst case re-install Android without messing up Windows again? I’ve no problem with the inner workings of Windows, but Android is a bit of a mystery to me (and is the reason I bought this tablet in the first place!)

I’ve no reason to believe that I specifically damaged or removed an Android partitions, at least not intentionally, I just have a feel that the dual boot is directing to the wrong one.

Thanks for any help or advice

From my limited knowledge is you have to flash Android partition again, doing so all your current Android and Windows data will be wiped out. Then you have to install windows again. Both have to use firmware that is provided by teclast for your model (H6C3). You can take this opportunity to shrink Android partition so that you have more space in windows partition. Please see this link for my steps.

Thanks for that. That seems like a lot of work, and probably a high risk. I may sell this tablet as a Windows-only tablet buy a replacement 🙂
