How to install:

  1. boot into TWRP recovery
  2. backup -> backup (create a nandroid backup of your current ROM)
  3. wipe -> advanced wipe -> wipe /system
  4. wipe -> factory reset
  5. install cm-12.1-xxxxxxxx-KonstaKANG-chuwi_vi10plus.zip
  6. (install Hi10 Pro/Hibook/Hibook Pro/Hi12 patch if necessary - see FAQ below)
  7. install open_gapps-x86-5.1-pico-xxxxxxxx.zip
  8. reboot system

 

FAQ:

Q: I can't find developer options and performance settings, why?
A: Settings -> About tablet -> Click 'Build number' several times
 
Q: I don't have reboot options in power menu, why?
A: Settings -> Developer options -> Advanced reboot
 
Q: I have no root, why? What is that hashtag on my status bar?
A: Settings -> Developer options -> Root access. Root management is now integrated as part of CM's Privacy Guard and you can manage per app permissions under Settings -> Privacy -> Privacy Guard. You'll have a persistent notification in the status bar when you're running an app that uses root permissions.

Q: I have Hi10 Pro. What should I do?
A: Download patch below and install it in TWRP.

Sorry but I don't understand any things. 

I have a Chuwi hi10 plus (vi10 plus evolution) with dual OS remix and Windows 10. Can I flash this ROM? And how? First of all I'll need to be root but and don't know the way to do it. 

Sorry for my English

I don't know if Hi10 Plus is the same device as Vi10 Plus with just bigger RAM and storage or if there are some other hardware differences as well. I tried to look for a stock firmware for Hi10 Plus (http://forum.chuwi.com/thread-2657-1-1.html) and apparently the stock Remix OS is actually the same as Vi10 Plus' one. Is your device identified as Vi10 Plus in stock Remix OS? In that case I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work on Hi10 Plus, too.

You'll need custom recovery (TWRP) to install this ROM. Installation instructions (with link to TWRP thread) in the third post of this thread.

Thank you. 

I am not a developer but I think that I am an advanced user or not a noob in any case ;) 

That link on Chuwi forum was exactly that I was thinking to send to you. As you can see vi10 plus and hi10 plus are the same and only bios is different. I don't know about vi10 plus ram compared to hi10 plus and it is important for ROM installation. 

What I want to know is that: if I flash twrp and install this ROM will l lose my two partitions with remix and Windows 10 OS?

In effect , remix recognices my hi10 plus as a vi10 plus but remix is not an stable ROM for Chuwi's tablets: freezings , battery discharge with keyboard connected, not possible to install an alternative launcher as nova, etc. I sure you know that. 

Thanks in advance for your time and effort

No, you won't lose Windows installation or ability to dual-boot (there's actually more than two partitions - info on my other device but should be the same on other intel dual-boot tablets). This will just replace stock Remix OS with custom firmware (system and boot partitions, TWRP will live in recovery partition). CyanogenMod doesn't have option to reboot directly to Windows but dual-boot menu powering up the device works just like before.

I didn't experience any freezes with stock Remix OS but I only used it for about a day anyway. Issue with keyboard dock waking up the device is present with CyanogenMod as well. It's possible that these are hardware related or issues with low level firmware (BIOS, bootloader, etc). Kernel and bunch of binary hardware drivers are also the same as with the stock firmware so it's very possible that these issues persist even if you install CyanogenMod.

Ok. I don't have nothing to lose and I'll get root and cm lots of configurations and personalization.  

I suppose you will continue to develop this ROM, isn't it ? Count me as tester

Your ROM works like a charm on my hi10 plus tablet. Thanks a lot,@Konstat

Now I see if I can find bugs.

For the moment, the only "bug" is that Tesla Unread doesn't work with Gmail app, it gets force closed when you try to configure it.

Enabling SELinux enforcing is on my todo list. CM12.1 itself is already pretty dead and there isn't much happening in upstream code base.

Great job here!

Any chance for releasing the source code? I'd like to try port to this to Chuwi Hibook Pro. It is pretty much the same device, except that the screen has different resolution, so it should fairly easy.

Thanks!

Hi Konstat,

 

just signed up to say thanks for this amazing port!

 

i can confirm no lockups and no Keyboard wakeups with your cm 12.1 port.

 

maybe you can have a look at the german medion Image for Android 6.0 for the cherrytrail linked a few post ups.

 

edit : Audio not routed through HDMI  <- works for me without a Problem!

About wakelocks, i can confirm that with keyboard connected your CM 12.1 based ROM doesn´t waste battery as remix do. 

Congrats  /profile/834050-konstat/" rel="">@KonstaT

Edit. Bug with keyboard and battery drain still present [emoji24]

Sad to say that I can confirm the freezing problem persist on cm, at last for me. Unfortunately :-( I am pretty sure that My problem is WiFi related. My vi10plus froze first time just after typing My Gmail and password. The second i pushed next botton it froze. Other times it's when just browsing. Thanks for you effort.

Yes. Vi10 2gb/32gb Remix only

Sad to hear that.

In my hi10 plus no freezing problems. But in all cases, CM is better than remix and most configurable.

I have no freezings but keyboard wakes up screen every minute or less. Problem for battery. Any configuration or solution?

Now i reboot completely (no soft reboot) and keyboard doesn't wake up screen for a while but problem persist again after a few minutes
