Ive narrowed the problem down to the pen tablet function, since in Vista I was able to turn the tablet input process down, and the problem seemed to go away. It was a simple matter of just opening the task admin and killing the process.
However, as far as I can tell, I can't find the same process in Windows 7, and I have supposedly already turned the tablet functions via "Start" -> "Control Panel" > "Programs and Features" > "Turn Windows features on or off". Yet after a reboot the screen still seems to react to the tablet pen.
The link below shows how to disable a number of irritating Tablet PC functions on windows. It doesn't completely remove the Tablet PC feature though and is intead focused on minimizing the pain of experienced by users of pressure-sensitive tablets on Windows 7.
Disable Dynamic Feedback. This requires a registry change because there is no Control Panel UI for this in Windows 7. Go to this regkey [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\TabletPC] and set the value TurnOffPenFeedback to 1. The link has a .REG file you can use.
Google Play Store states that Sticky Notes have been added to the Android version but I can't see them? This is a key feature as I use sticky notes on my Windows 10 desktop and want to access them on my tablet. For some reason I can see them on my Samsung phone as it has a Sticky Note icon at bottom of OneNote, but not on a Samsung tablet - why?
I have further bad news. I have just replaced my android phone and the tab you seek in OneNote 16.0 is not there. The 3 tabs are now Home, Search and Notebooks, the Home tab has your history where the sticky notes reside.
The same Android app, and the UI difference between the phone and the tablet is incredible. And the tablet has NO StickyNotes, still. Mine you, I'm not a fan of the current implementation of StickyNotes on the phone, either.
I want to build an app that runs on windows tablets. This is not to windows store app, rather, I will be developing this app for some company to visualize the data they have. And they will use this app on tablets or other touch enabled devices.
You will need to use framwork 4.5 to develop Windows 8.1 RT apps though - and this is what you want to do if you want multi device apps. If not then it`s just normal Windows applications that can olny be runn on Windows devices (not Windows phone, or RT tablets)
2.1 Honestly you should consider buying a book before developing. The "Windows 8.1 Apps with XAML and C# Unleashed" one is really goodone - you can even read a good share of the first chapter with example code (see links below)!
2.3. Doing touch support is pretty straightforward, it`s just another event handler (touchdown instead of mouseleftbutton down) so all you need is to know how to best handle events in MVVM (link attached below). Another thing is gesture support (see link)
Here is the standard library of xaml controls.. pretty basic but you can do a lot with them: -us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh465351.aspxif you need better /more graphical controls you might consider using Developer Express or similar APIs heres a list of the graphic tools they provide. Pretty neat: also a WinRT XAML Toolkit available: (Tutorial and Graph Preview see below)
I was under the impression Google Voice was what most people used when trying to use their tablet as a cell phone. As long as you have service you should be able to have calls ring through the google voice app as long as there were number blocks available in your area code (or any area code near you) when you did the initial account setup.

Nice case for a build !
I have done a couple of builds with old radio boxes,
no fancy constructions just a Rpi and active speakers , the most advanced soldering job i have done is move the volume control
from the speakers to the front panel
Thanks again for the info. I was really looking for a simple solution for a jukebox interface without more expense of adding a pi etc. If I had deep pockets I could get a pi, a monitor and a pa system and be done but I already have the tablet, a surround sound system that will work so I was hoping my expense would stop here. The tablet is much more powerful than the pi and has 64 gb storage which is plenty for my needs and should run a jukebox easily.
*Another way is to have the VM running full screen, but that would require installing VirtualBox Guest Additions. I have not tried this as I think accessing Volumio outside of the VM is simpler and more straightforward.
I performed a fresh installation of Windows 10 on my Stream 7 tablet and it worked well. I posted the procedures I used below in case it might help someone. One warning is that you have to first upgrade the original Windows 8.1 with Bing installation "in place", letting Windows 10 activate before wiping the disk clean and installing Windows 10 fresh. If you do not do this, Windows 10 will not activate when it is installed fresh.
If Windows 10 tells you that you do not have enough room to upgrade, you may have to restore the tablet back to the factory configuration using the recovery media. Other reports indicate you can complete the upgrade by pointing to an external drive for additional space. If you recover, you do not need to apply any Windows 8.1 updates after the recovery, you can upgrade using the Windows 10 USB immediately after the tablet is restored to the factory configuration.
Updating Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 on the HP Stream Tablet
- With Windows 8.1 running, start the setup program from the Windows 10 USB drive.
- When it prompted: "Get Important Updates?", I selected "Not Right Now".
- Accept the license agreement.
- When it prompted: "Change What To Keep", I selected "Nothing".
- Click the Install button, the upgrade took 30 minutes on my Stream 7.
- When the upgrade finishes, add a WiFi connection and go to the Start button => System and make sure it says "Windows is Activated".
You can stop here if you have enough disk space and do not want to do a fresh install. The 5.2 GB recovery partition from Windows 8.1 can be deleted now since Windows 10 creates its own 450 MB recovery partition for WIMBoot. Unfortunately it seems the C: drive cannot be extended to include the 5.2 GB of space so an additional drive letter (such as "D:") will need to be created to utilize it.
If you want to do a fresh Windows 10 install, you can also wipe the drive completely clean at this point. This will provide the greatest amount of available disk space for the C: drive (21.1 GB free of 28.5 GB following the fresh install).
The RTL8723BS WiFi driver is already installed after a fresh installation but the other five drivers needed for the Stream 7, (Driver Pack, Bluetooth, Realtek audio, Goodix touchscreen and Kionix motion sensor) have to be installed from the drivers available from
hp.com. The Stream 8 may have additional drivers needed. The Stream tablet drivers site on
hp.com has been going up and down periodically since the tablet was introduced so you might want to download the drivers first and copy them to the Windows 10 USB before beginning the installation.
After the reset is finnished and before installing any HP drivers, side swipe gestures works without problems, but the start button is disabled. Then I installed all Windows 10 drivers from HP.com, except the Googix-driver. Nothing changes.
I think the side swipe gestures and start button are working for me, I don't use them very much, I use a trackball or mouse most of the time. Did you try updating to the new BIOS update from July 2015?
Does this process work for the HP Stream 8? My first attempt ran into issues just getting to the boot menu. Instead of F9, I had to press the volume up button while powering up. This brought me to a menu but I'm unsure about the rest of the steps.
I have a different problem. Was able to get windows installed on stream tablet with no problem and have been running for several months. One problem with windows 10 is the automatic updates. While in the airport a couple days ago I wanted to use the table to do a web lookup. When I turned it on it infoormed me it has 72 updates to do an please do not turn off. After a 20 minute wait I said the $@#% with it and turned the table off, then turned it on. Guess what, it won't load. So with no operating system to connect any repair mechanism to, I looking for some help in reestablishing windows 10, and ten will very quickly go back to either 8 or even 7. I have Windows 10, 32bit and 64 bit on a stick, but not sure it will boot. Any suggestions (ps: already discovered holding power and volume trick).
Yes I can get to the trouble shoot menu. But when I last did that the system either refreshed or reloaded the BIOS. Not sure what that did. I am currently on the road and did not bring the tablet with me but will be back in office Friday and plan to again try to get to the troubleshoot menu , then hopefully, but using the usb stick get it to recognise the microsoft windows repair feature. If not, then I am out of ideas. BTW, the USB stick has a boot record on it but not sure how the table will recognize the stick as anything other that an disk device.
