Project summary
Android on Intel Architecture (Android-IA) is an open source project based on
the*Android Open Source Project*(AOSP). Intel is a contributor to the AOSP and
provides code for enabling Android on Intel Architecture platforms. (read more: About
A-IA )

this is a thread for installing, exploring, discussing dual boot Win 8-8.1 and Android for
XE700T1C, and I have XE700T1C-A01AE which is one of many variants of
XE700T1C, in the official site of A-IA only XE700T is supported which is a whole
different model, the XE700T1C comes with a keyboard dock that transfer it to laptop style, so the installation will be muc
easier because we don't need USB hub and USB keuboard.

I tried this on my own risk on both Windows 8 and 8.1 preview. so by doing so you accept any risk from this procedure .
patient and read carefully before you start...

Before you Start ...

It is highly recommended that you download and install the latest BIOS firmware from Samsung while you still have wind
on the device. The installer requires windows to run, and recent versions provide significant improvements.
Back up your PC using the Samsung recovery ( if it is preinstalled ) or any back up program.

What you need ...

1- USB thumb drive 1 Gb at least.
2- Download the latest build for Samsung XE700T installer from A-IA site ( https://01.org/android-ia/downloads )
3- Download "Image Writer for Windows" from https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/
4- A space on your PC for Android (more details in the installation)

Preparing the USB thumb drive

1- Back up the content in the USB drive because it will be erased ...
2- Extract Samsung XE700T installer
3- Extract windows image writer tool and run Win32DiskImager.exe
4- Browse for the image you extracted from the Samsung XE700T installer
5- Select your USB drive letter and hit "Write"
6- Done

Installing .....

1- Restart your PC with the USB drive inserted and as soon as it start press "F2" or you can follow the other way which
A- swipe from right and enter settings from the charm bar and choose "change PC settings
B- go to general and scroll down to advance start up and press restart now
C- after restart choose "Troubleshoot"
D- then "Advance options"
E- then "UEFI firmware"
F- then "Settings"
2- After going into settings ... go to " Boot " and set " Secure boot to OFF "

2- After going into settings ... go to " Boot " and set " Secure boot to OFF "
3- Then from the first option select Boot device priority and put your USB in the first place.
4- Choose "Save"
5- After restart the installer begin you will get five options. select run interactive installer
6- It will ask you " do you want to reserve windows and dual boot " Type: Y
7- Then " Do you want to resize windows to make more space " Type: Y
8- You will be asked " Enter the size in Mib for Windows " and the installer calculate the minimum and maximum size an
recommends the maximum size ... if you choose that value you will get about 350 MiB internal memory for android and i
small if you want to install large apps. so the trick is to subtract the amount you need from the maximum value for ex: if y
have 116000 Mib maximum then if you type 110000 you will have a 6000 MiB for the internal memory for Android.
9- After that you will be asked " Install GummiBoot bootloader " Type: Y
10- Then set the boot menu timeout ...
11- After the installation is completed remove your USB drive and press any key to restart.
12- Done.

Note:
1- When the PC start you got options, use down key or volume down to navigate. up key or volume up key to select.
2- After the first boot of windows you may be asked to do disc check...

Things you may need in Android:

Google services framework and Google Play store. Download and extract (Zip in the attachment)

And this how to install it

After connecting to Wi-Fi, open the browser and download a file manager with root capability for ex: search for ES File
manager, download, install, open the file manager and then root explorer then Mount R/W and set all the options to RW
copy Google services and play store to: system/app ... then change their permission to rw- r-- r-image
Exit the file manager and pull the quick setting toggles area from the upper right corner and select power off " this is how
turn off Android "
Turn on the PC again and enter android and open play store and enter your user name and password .... because addi
account from setting will not work and force close it...
In play store there are many apps that set to be not compatible but it may work and if I remember for example angry bird
space free is working fine after I transfer and install it. so you can try...

Known Bugs:

1- Auto brightness is working by default even if disabled

2- If you want to use the on screen keyboard you have to disable the hardware keyboard after each reboot.(shortcut fou
the notification area)
3- Tell me to add if i forget something

How many times does it have to be said, it wont work.
AndroidIA is custom tailored for intel core series processors not atom. Clovertrail as in the xe500t is also hardware locked to windows 8 (no idea why).
