Anyone managed to do this? I only want Win10 on there and extra space.

Yes, I tied a couple of days ago with a windows image that I have. Just removed all the partitions and formatted the drive, then installed windows using the whole drive capacity.

Just use a windows installation disk or use any bootable drive management software like GParted to remove the android partitions and expand windows partition.

However you’ll still get the boot selection screen and if you choose android it just keeps rebooting, not sure exactly how you can disable the boot selection screen.

@lalla521 @abdullah-f-alromaih The problem is that I don´t have the CDK05 keyboard yet and my normal cherry keyboard doesnt seem to be working at the beginning of the boot, so I don´t achieve to enter neither the bios nor the boot menu :((

that’s weird. my usb keyboard works when connected directly to the tablet, even in bios. are you spamming that ESC key enough?

Me too, I use a keyboard that I have lying around plugged in to a USB hub.

[Abady]

yeah that’s a good idea

 

Edit: tried to flash the modified boot image and got an error! Even though the last thing I did is flash the official images!!

 

Do I need to restore the partitions? And which ones are they? I have “bootloader2” and “bootloader” -100mb each-, and “boot” which is 30mb. Are those the ones I need to restore?

Edit 2:
Nevermind, just restored them and rooted successfully.

Thanks.

Does reflashing the android partition requires me to also reflash windows? Or is there a workaround for that?

I plan to root mine, but I’m afraid if it get’s an update I’ll have to reflash the whole tablet to update it, I wouldn’t mind reflashing just the android partition because I mostly use windows.

[Abady]

Yes.

For some reason changing the boot order in the BIOS doesn’t change anything for me, so I only use F7. In the BIOS there are two menus for boot order, the first one I can’t modify, the second I can modify but it doesn’t help!

After I deleted everything, how do I boot from my USB-Stick?

Press F7 repeatedly while booting until you get to the boot menu

Yeah I just saw that, great work.

Both android and windows are now up and running thankfully, I have the i15-TD version BTW.

Hi guys,

So I just had to struggle with this today and got me frustrated! I created an image with clonezilla a couple of days ago and formatted the drive, however it didn’t go as planned so I restored the clonezilla image and it screwed up the android partition, it wouldn’t boot! I could go to the recovery and wipe data and factory reset and it still won’t boot. So I decided to just reflash the tablet.

I followed the steps I gathered from here, the word document, and @Daan’s post as much as I can get out of them, However I still get an error when attempting to install windows, and every time it does it screws up the USB2 stick, only to find out by checking out the chinese word document that also the USB2 stick HAS TO BE labeled “WINPE”.

Once I made sure both USB sticks are labeled “WINPE” it worked flawlessly.
