Windows 95, 98, XP and Linux hacked to run on Android phones.

Are one of those guys who wants to fiddle with their phones. Well here is a new thing to try out. Install full Windows 95, 98, XP or full Linux OS on your Android phones.






XDA-Developers forum member mnomaanw shared a way to get Linux--along with various old versions of Windows--to run on Android smartphone. His method will let you run either Linux, Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows XP on the HTC device, allowing for a bygone desktop experience on your smartphone. These are not mobile themes or ARM version of Windows CE made to look like 98 or XP. These are really the full versions of x86 Intel/AMD compatible Windows that you install on your PC.


To install Windows just download the few mentioned APK files. Get an ISO image on your SD card. Install and Run Bochs apk. 


Here are the controls :-

  • It emulate touchpad on touchscreen and left/right mouse buttons on volume 
  • You can also click touch screen to generate mouse left button click. 
  • Back = BackSpace, Menu = Enter, left-upper corner click generates TAB 
  • left-lower corner click popups keyboard

MHL to HDMI is tested and working. And your SD card will work as My Computer.



Most exe files are said to be working fine under this setup. But don't except to play 3D games or even latest version of Office without hangs and crashes.
Be careful while proceeding. The setup is tested on HTC Evo 3D, but others are testing it on tablets like Kindle Fire, Xoom Transformer Prime etc...

Decrapify / Debloat Windows 10 with a Powershell Script

Windows 10 is a decent OS from Microsoft after the disaster known as Windows 8 and 8.1. Although Windows is still better with no Modern UI crap, no ads, minimal telemetry, no Edge to bug you. But Windows 10 is a decent compromise if you want a stable OS with modern features like DirectX 12. Earlier OEMs used to bundle PCs and Laptops with crapware, with Windows 10, now Microsoft themselves bundle crapware. Welcome to Software as a Service (SaaS) model. On top of that we have OEM crapware on top of Microsoft crapware. As a result trying to Debloat or DeCrapify Windows 10 is getting absurd and as a system admin it is disheartening to see all that performance go to waste on the messed up attempt by Microsoft to do an Appstore and its apps. Fortunately a kind soul who goes by name  Sycne x has worked painstakingly to provide us a simple solution that works considerably well. Let's Begin To download the script visit  here , and click Clone or Download and Click Downl...
