Make sure to check the Status of your Device here.
This Guide will show you how to install full Windows on your Device.

- PC / Laptop with Windows (Recommended: Windows 10 or higher)
- ADB
- Custom Recovery
- Unlocked Bootloader
- UEFI Image
- install.wim from an Windows 10/11 ISO
- Parted
- GDisk
I recommend UUP Dump to get a Windows 10/11 ARM64 ISO Image.
Chosse an Build and select all Options you prever.
After that download the zip File and extract it on your PC / Laptop. (The Path should not contain any spaces)
Then Open the extracted Folder and run the Build script, wait once it is finisched. (Some AntiVirus Programms stop the Build)
A ISO will apear in the Folder, open the ISO File and extract the install.wim from sources and place it somewhere, where you can reach it.
TODO: Add this Section if any Drivers are created for a Device
Boot into your Custom Recovery and unmount userdata, then open Command Promt on your PC / Laptop and enter ADB Shell.
Once in ADB Shell create a directory called worksapce in /:
mkdir /workspace/
Then extract the .7z Files and push the content with adb push into the workspace folder:
adb push parted gdisk /workspace/
After you copied parted and gdisk to workspace make it executeable and run parted:
# NOTE: If your device has memory type eMMC, instead of sda use mmcblk0!
chmod 744 parted gdisk
./parted /dev/block/sda
Once you executed parted print the partition table:
(parted) print
Find userdata in output and note the Number, Start and End Address.
Example:
# NOTE: Don't use these Values it just an Example!
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
38 141GB 241GB 100GB userdata
Once you noted the Number, Start and End Address delete userdata and create is again but smaller:
# NOTE: Some devices use f2fs filesystem for userdata, ext4 won't suit them!
# If you have a problem with the number of partitions
# (can’t create another partition), you can try:
# NOTE: If your device has memory type eMMC, instead of sda use mmcblk0!
sgdisk --resize-table 99 /dev/block/sda # 99 number of maximum allowed partitions
# Deleting userdata will wipe all your data in Android!
(parted) rm <Number>
(parted) mkpart userdata ext4 <Start> <End / 2>
After shrinking userdata We can move on to creating the other Partitions:
(parted) mkpart esp fat32 <End / 2> <End / 2 + 512MB>
(parted) mkpart win ntfs <End / 2 + 512MB> <End>
Now we set esp to active by running: set <Number> esp on.
Once that is done we exit parted and reboot again to recovery:
(parted) quit
reboot recovery
After that format the partitions:
mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/by-name/userdata # Userdata
mkfs.fat -F32 -s1 /dev/block/by-name/esp # ESP
mkfs.ntfs -f /dev/block/by-name/win # Windows
If formating userdata gives a error reboot to recovery and format userdata in the Custom Recovery GUI.
If your Device has an Mass Storage Guide use that.
If Not Use Mass-Storage.zip and copy it contents to a FAT32 Partition on your Device.
After that boot the UEFI Image then it enters Windows Boot Manager select Developer Menu -> USB Mass Storage Mode.
Then connect your Device to the PC / Laptop and find the Windows and esp partition.
Open diskpart in Command Promt and Find all needed Partitions:
# NOTE: Most likely, your system itself will assign a letter to the win partition.
DISKPART> lis dis
# you can findout the Device ID by looking at the Sizes you may regonize your Device Internal Storage Size.
DISKPART> sel dis <Device ID>
DISKPART> lis par
DISKPART> sel par <Number + 1>
# Use a other Letter if "X" is not availbe.
DISKPART> assign letter X
DISKPART> sel par <Number + 2>
# Use a other Letter if "R" is not availbe.
DISKPART> assign letter R
DISKPART> exit
Now we will apply install.wim using dism:
# R: Is what we assigned in the diskpart part, replace the letter if you used another letter.
dism /apply-image /ImageFile:<Path to install.wim> /index:1 /ApplyDir:R:\
After that we need to create the Boot Files other wise our UEFI won't regonise Windows:
# R: and X: Is what we assigned in the diskpart part, replace the letter if you used another letter.
bcdboot R:\Windows /s X: /f UEFI
TODO: Add this Sections if there are any Drivers for a Device.
cd into the EFI Partition of your Device and edit some BCD Values:
# Start CMD as Admin if you can't access The ESP Partition.
# X: Is what we assinged in the diskpart part, replace the letter if you used another letter.
cd X:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot
bcdedit /store BCD /set "{default}" testsigning on
bcdedit /store BCD /set "{default}" nointegritychecks on
bcdedit /store BCD /set "{default}" recoveryenabled no
After that reboot to recovery and remove Mass Storage, then reboot into UEFI and enjoy your Windows Installation.
After you boot into the system, you will be taken to OOBE or the desktop (depending on the image) and find that the USB does not work. In order to fix this you must:
Boot into custom recovery and run them mass storage script according to the instructions that can be found for your device here Mu-Qcom Guides
After that, in the command line of your PC, enter:
# R: Is what we assigned in the diskpart part, replace the letter if you used another letter.
reg load HKLM\OFFLINE R:\Windows\System32\Config\System
regedit
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/OFFLINE/ControlSet001/Control/USB/OsDefaultRoleSwitchMode change value to 1
After, in the command line of your PC, enter
reg unload HKLM\OFFLINE
Done!
To reinstall you need Mass Storage again.
Boot into Mass Storage, plug in your Phone into the PC / Laptop and format the Windows Partition on your Phone to NTFS using the GUI.
After that apply again the install.wim and then, create the boot files again.
Then also apply the BCD Settings again.
