Remix 2.0 on Chuwi Hi12

According to this thread https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=223426&start=200
Remix 2.0 is available for the Chuwi 2.0
I have a dual-boot (Android/MS win10) Chuwi Hi12.
What would I gain, other than a MS win10-like UI, by adding Remix?
What complications may Remix introduce for long-term maintenance, and perhaps future app-selection, please?
Thanks - David
You should better ask here.

Hi David,
I bought a Chuwi Hi12 some months ago after crashing the W10 on a Teclast X98 Plus. Worked nicely for some months although I saw some BSD's right from the beginning. But then it started to reboot (with BSDs) several times a day. So I decided what the heck throw off W10 and go for Remix 2.0. So I flashed Remix 2.0 on an enlarged partition (gpt.bin from X98 Plus) and now I am running Remix as the only OS on my Chuwi Hi12. Looks good, feels good and does not reboot every few hours, so it was W10 which could not handle the Chuwi hardware.
Regards,
[BUMP]
I would like to buy an inexpensive, large tablet, but I don't want Windows 10.
The Chuwi H12 meets my hardware requirements (Good resolution, Stereo speakers, real USB ports even without keyboard dock, USB charging).
and Deal eXtreme still has them in stock.
I see the official remix OS 2.0 firmware on the Chuwi forums, but it does not look like there are/will be any up dates.
Are there any updates?
What works, and what does not?
Is there any hope of the rumored Chuwi Remix 12 pro? (or another Remix 3.0 device?)
Can I fall back to Ubuntu? What works and what does not (with current kernel/Ubuntu)
Yes, I've been Googling, but I don't see much in the way of current (last 6 months) articles. Has time already left this device behind? Has it left Remix OS behind?
Thanks for purchasing recommendations.
Here's Remix OS for various Chuwi devices. Hi12 is supported with compatibility patch.

That looks awesome ! I haven't bought my large tablet yet, but that looks like an awesome ROM. I see that you have a cyanogen too, as a fall-back.
I really like the Chuwi Hi12 with the 2 full size USB ports, "normal" (Micro USB) charging, and a great screen.
I am also considering some other 12" tablets that should support Remix, as well as Ubuntu 16.xx "out of the box". The availability of your ROM is a big plus for the Chuwi.
All it needs is a big Chewbacca sticker for the back :silly:
Has anybody noticed that Google translates "Chuwi" into "Out of"? Most of the Vendors seem to be "out of" the Hi12.
Techtablets on YouTube has info on the new 13inch Chuwi tablet that is just about to hit the market. Just like the Hi12, it's only being released with a single Windows10 platform to start with. It's a brilliant review outlet on YouTube, I suggest those that have not seen it should give it a view.
Try Cyanogenmod 12.1, works best with it.

BIOS Updates are always risky bro.
Don't do it if you don't know the risks.
Myself I updated the bios without problem on my hi12 dualboot

Best Smartwatch software for Pixel

Hi everyone,
I know this question looks like a no-brainer one as Android Wear 2.0 = Stock Android. Currently I am using a 1st gen Huawei Watch which as you all probably already know, runs Android Wear 2.0 and thinking about upgarding to Samsung Gear S3 Frontier which runs Tizen. Anyone here can enlighten me/us which of the two - Android Wear or Tizen has the overall great experience with our Pixel? Like the Pros and Cons of both? And yeah as of now I am running Android 8.1 preview 1.
My main concerns are compatibility, notifications, watch vibrations or sound, functionalities, battery life. Not the looks or number of third party apps that can be installed. Thanks in advance!

How to flash Full android from ATV 7.0 with NVidia Experience 6.7 - Dual boot option?

Does anyone know if a guide exists for 2017 model Pro (500GB) running ATV 7.0 with NVidia Experience 6.7?
See lots of threads and posts around earlier versions of Nvidia experience and ATV 6.x but looking for definitive guide.
Posts on Zulu99/droidmote are garbage is really about promoting download of his product.
Help! I'm getting close to returning this device... ATV is just so limiting. Please refrain from posting responses telling me how I shouldn't need to come away from Android Television... anybody that has this point of view probably doesn't really understand UX or Functionality.
