Xeon, 31 Jul 2018The operative system it¨s a shit: How i install Windows... moreYour device, the ASUS TF600T, runs on an ARM-based processor (NVIDIA® TEGRA® 3 Quad Core CPU), and it originally shipped with Windows RT, a version of Windows specifically designed for ARM architecture. This limits your options when it comes to changing the operating system, as not all operating systems support ARM architecture.
Here are some potential options:
1. **Linux Distributions for ARM**: Some Linux distributions support ARM processors. Examples include:
- **Ubuntu**: Ubuntu has ARM versions that might work on your device, but installation can be complex and may require technical knowledge.
- **Debian**: Another Linux distribution that supports ARM architecture.
- **Arch Linux ARM**: A version of Arch Linux for ARM devices.
2. **Android**: Since your device uses an ARM processor similar to those found in many Android tablets, you might be able to install Android on it. However, this would also require significant technical expertise and potentially custom ROMs designed for your specific hardware.
3. **Windows 10 IoT Core**: This is a version of Windows designed for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and might be compatible with your hardware, but it is not a full desktop operating system and has limited functionality compared to Windows RT or standard Windows versions.
4. **LineageOS**: This is an open-source Android distribution that supports various ARM devices, although it might require a specific build for your device.
Before proceeding with any OS change, you should:
- Verify compatibility with your specific hardware.
- Backup all important data.
- Be prepared for a potentially complex installation process that might involve unlocking the bootloader, flashing the new OS, and troubleshooting any hardware-specific issues.
In general, switching the operating system on a device like the ASUS TF600T can be challenging and may not provide the full functionality of a desktop OS. If you are not familiar with the technical processes involved, it might be worth seeking assistance from someone with experience in modifying and installing operating systems on ARM-based devices.

Jailbreaking (Advanced and Risky): There was a jailbreak available for Windows RT that allowed users to run unsigned ARM-based desktop applications. However, this is risky, could void warranties, and may make your device less stable or even unusable if done incorrectly. It’s generally not recommended unless you are very experienced and understand the risks.

I am loving this device. Just got it from a friend, with a broken corner. Maybe that was the fix for the ghost touch, I doubt it, and certainly do not recommend breaking a corner. The specs are more than adequate for doing the basics, I mean it came with a full compliment of Office 2003 installed. That in it of itself is pretty great, but to know that I can slip a 32 or later even a 64GB microSD card, bonus for sure. Cannot say anything negative, pretty excited actually.

The issue with this tablet is that the touch screen at some point, start to act funny, like if someone were touching the screen; it touch by it self. Once it happen, you loose control of your screen; of the tablet. DON'T BUY IT. To use it, you will have to disable the touchscreen drivers and use it with the keyboard like if it was a laptop. There's no way to fix it. Even when you send back to AsusTek, they change the screen and it will work from hours to maybe like 2 month, then the problem come back. That's the ghost touch or phantom touch everybody talk about. When you contact asus, they send you instructions about how to reset your vivotab to factory settings. I did twice and it wont work. Some minutes after you reset the tablet, the ghost come back.

If there was ever a good example of built obsolescence, the ASUS TF600T RT pad is it. After paying $600 for it, it has been the biggest waste of money on technology I have ever made.
So, caveat emptor avoid ASUS completely and learn to put up with microsoft. Neither one cares too much about the customers

to someguy
you say ipad 4 is better and vivotab is outdated
ipad 4 has 2 cpu cores and 4 gpu cores
vivotab has 4 cpu cores and 12 gpu cores
If vivotab is last years tech then ipad 4 is from 3 or 4 years ago tech
P.S. they are both good tablets - which is better depends on what you are using it for.

With the RD OS this beautifully built machine is a lemon. It is slow and ponderous in operation, lacks decent apps, gets no support from ASUS, and gets no support from Microsoft. To have spent $600 on what promised to be a little gem only to realize after a relative short time that it was money down the drain is not good enough. These two companies should get together and work out how we can go to Android OS or Linux or something also that works.
