Hello everyone. I am new in xda, but i know the page long time ago. I was wondering if my LG Gpad 8.3 may get installed Windows 8.1. I need a new laptop, and i heard that talbet's windows 8.1 runs like a desktop windows. Thank you very much :highfive: :highfive:
nope
LG G pad 8.3 uses ARM architecture
(Full)Windows 8.1 requires Intel x86/x64 architecture
The Windows 8.1 RT does run on ARM (and has office), but dont think anyone has ported it to a non-supported device yet

Is it possible to upgrade the Dell XPS 10 which comes with RT to a pro version? If not what is the next best pro tablet for the least amount of money? Thanks!
It impossible because the architecture of CPU was not the same. Windows RT CPU base on ARM but Windows 8 Pro CPU base on x86-64.

Could you put the win8 pro version on the Dell?
I would think so, but would the touch screen be supported. No idea if the xps has touch

The XPS10 is a 10" windows RT tablet using a qualcomm ARM CPU. So thats a no for win8 pro.
Hi all,
It's too early to ask but is there any possibility that the new Samsung GT3 10.1 (P5220) can support Windows 8?:fingers-crossed:
From what i've learnt, it has the Intel Atom Z2560 and Windows 8 supports that chipset, right?
I am looking for an alternative to Sony Tablet S which has either been discontinued or trashed as I am unable to find a vendor anywhere in India selling them.
I am crazy about the IR Blaster feature (both available for the above two devices).:victory:
And if Windows 8 can be installed, that would be VERY great too.:fingers-crossed:
Please share your thoughts.:good:

it is not completely a matter of windows 8 having support for the chip it is a matter of the boot loader and being able to load it theoretically if the tablet was identical to a windows tablet if the boot loader and rom image could be transplanted successfully it might work but i would not hold my breath on that working soon the most likely way you could possibly do it is remote desktop or virtual machine but then again that is not really running it on the hardware.

Hi,
Thanks for the heads up...I guess I will have to be content with Remote Desktop for now
Peace!!
Hey, I recently got a Vivotab Rt TF600TL, which runs windows rt. And I hate windows, but since it was a present, I don't really wanna sell it. I researched about installed android into it and couldn't find one, there are some for other vivotabs that are already androids. So is there a way to install android, on a Vivotab Rt specifically for TF600TL. Thanks
Hi
Does anyone know whether this will happen, or is CM13 our best bet?
Thanks.
It would be really nice of LG to give us 6.0 especially since the tablet is newer and more powerful than the 2013 Nexus 7, which has already gotten Marshmallow. That and LG is bragging about being the first OEM to push 6.0 to their G4, so how hard would a STOCK update be for our tablet?
Could it be possible to make Vulkan-compatible custom/roms for the LG GPAD 8.3?
it's clear that Qualcomm will implement it only in adreno 500 series and later but,there is always a way around!
