    Using EaseUs Partition Master V10.5 with Windows, I can see all partitions on the device. Can I just resize the Android partition smaller and resize the Windows partition bigger?

    I would like to know this also.

    I wanted to know on this as well. Have anyone done this before? It seems quite easier to just use this.

     

    Yes it works with X98 Plus II. I tried the 6gb one and it worked. I will now try to install windows to see if it works.

    As for the RAM, it is not displayed correctly but it is using all 4gb of it. If you go into the “App” category under settings and switch to the “running” tab, it will show you how much RAM being used by system, apps and how much free ram, totaling to about 3.8gb.

     

    Windows Installation worked great. I have 47gb free. I wonder if I can do a full clean install of Windows and still be able to flash Android back if I ever wanted to.

    I lost the ability to read SD cards a few days ago so I am now in the club of people waiting and hoping for a firmware update to fix that.

    Once you have a burn like this it’s pretty much over for that component. You’ll need to get a replacement tablet. This is why I haven’t touched the insides yet. It’s already finicky to begin with and it could just stop working any moment.

    When I got my C2D4 tablet, SD card worked on both Android and Windows. After a short amount of time, It stopped reading in Windows. Didn’t really care for that since I used it mainly on Android. Now I can’t get it to recognize in Android either. Whether it’s on Stock Android, Remix OS, or even with root and in TWRP recovery, the micro SD card won’t read. On Android it keeps saying it’s safe to remove. Sometimes, the SD card will mount and read but it won’t stay like that forever. It’s annoying and I hope a firmware update can fix this issue like it did with the previous Plus model.

    I do want to know if there is a way to restore the tablet back to factory settings. I know you can flash Android back using the Intel Flash tool and then install windows using a USB drive but that doesn’t reinstall the firmware that handles the dual booting, which is the cause of the SD card reading issue. Anyone have an idea on how to do it?

    I hope the sound issue can be fixed. I really like Remix OS and the Android 5.1 this tablet comes with really sucks. SD card recognition in Android works but most apps don’t recognize it.

    Woah it took me a while to notice this but sound does not work. Speaker and headphone jack. Bluetooth works so I am able to hear sound through bt headphones. After some searching around, I’ve found that Bay trail and Cherry Trail devices such as ours don’t support sound. I don’t know if there is a work around yet.

    how did you flash it? how did you get it to work?

    OP’s post is a bit confusing but I’ll try to be as throughout as possible.

    Download the Remix OS file for the Teclast X98. Also Download the Android 5.1 recovery files for X98 Plus II that OP linked

    https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B0ni6G00YeZzNE1TRGM4Rks1UjQ&usp=sharing

    What you’re going to do is pull the boot.img out of the Android 5.1 zip file and replace the one in the Remix os zip with it. This will allow Remix OS to boot. Next up is to Boot your tablet into DNX mode.

    With your tablet off, hold the power button and the + and – volume buttons. Once it displays you’re in DNX mode, plug in your tablet to your computer and run the Intel Phone Flash tool. If you have all the drivers installed correctly, the software will recognize the tablet.

    Select Browse and choose the Remix OS zip folder that you’ve modified with a different boot.img file.

    Under configuration, change it to “recover” or “recovery”

    Click Flash. You’ll see Errors both on your PC and on your Tablet but once you reboot you’ll be able to boot remix. It takes a while for the first time boot.

     

    Note that you lose your Windows 10 boot when you do this. I’m about to attempt reinstalling it to see If I can use it again. I’m also looking up way to resize partitions and abandon Win 10 all together.

    Woaw I can’t believe how simple this was. I lost my Windows Boot tho but I’ve been thinking of going entirely Android since Windows runs like crap on this tablet.

    Brightness isn’t so bad. Auto rotate not working is no big deal since I never hold the tablet in portrait. Plus, Remix was made to be used in landscape, like Windows.

     

    Edit: Camera app doesn’t work. I didn’t use it before but I’m testing what works and doesn’t.

    I have the X98 Plus II (C2D4) and I tried installing the update from both TWRP and from the Teclast App itself. No new app appeared. I then unzipped it and installed the Fastmode apk but if I open it it says I’m already in Fast mode. I haven’t noticed a change in the games I play that do struggle a bit.

    User kaljo provided with this G-drive link that contains the windows 10 image for this tablet. I used this when I tried resetting my tablet and it got stuck at 5%

    If you already reinstalled Android: Download the first 4 files and unzip them together into one folder. Copy those to a USB drive (I used an 8GB one), You’re going to need to use a USB hub because you need both the USB drive and a keyboard plugged in. When you turn on the tablet, you need to press F7 until the boot menu appears and you can select to boot from the USB drive. Windows will install automatically. Once installed, your dual boot menu should reappear and work.

    I’ve been going through many reviews of the tablet on different websites and I’ve noticed the top right corner (where the camera and wifi chip is) never sits flat on the review units either.

    Here’s an example if you look on the right, where the camera is, it does not sit as flat as the center or left (you can see more of a shadow). Like I said, the bend is very slight. I was worried that mine came defective but it seems that some units just look like that.

    Hey everyone. I bought a Teclast X98 Plus II and just received last Friday. It’s been great and I haven’t really had any wifi issues on either Android or Windows. I did reinstall both and root android and everything is running better than when I opened it out of the box.

     

    One thing I noticed though is that the tablet does not sit flat. It looks like it’s slightly bent outward. I wouldn’t have an issue with it but it looks like it is putting pressure on the display (not the digitizer) and creating a slight discoloration on the corners. It’s really only noticeable on a black screen but it’s bugging me since I just got the tablet and everything else works great. I noticed in one of the review videos that the guy’s tablet was also bent (he was holding it on its side to measure it). Is anyone else noticing this or is it normal?
