Jide's Remix OS Violates GPL and Apache License

 By Vaibhav Jain on January 18, 2016       


Jide Remix Os has just made the dream's possible to Dual Boot Android and Windows on a Single PC / Mac .

Also Read - 



Its very easy to Install Remix Os via Official Remix Os USB Tool , But to all Jide fans Its not Official Remix Os USB Tool , its just a themed unetbootin ( Tool available for Windows and other platform ) . And that violate General Public License .


The Linux Homefront Project also found that , Remix Os that is based on Android-x86 has copied almost every thing from Android-x86 project ( same boot logo , build prop etc ) and that violate Apache Public License .

 Although that doesn't seems a very big issue , but still !

10 Features That Should Have Been In Remix Os 2.0 (But Aren’t)

 By Vaibhav Jain on January 16, 2016       


Recently Jide revealed Remix Os 2.0 for PC's and Mac . Remix Os 2.0 is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and is basically made for PC's and Mac . It is multi-windowed Android Os through which we can open Multiple apps and Games at Once .

Remix Os is all together a fully-fledged Desktop Os , but it lacks some features ( that Jide might add in future updates ) .

Here are 10 Features That Should Have Been In Remix Os 2 (But Aren’t) -

 1. Battery Indicator - There is no Battery Indicator , we can't see our Laptop/PC's battery status / life .

 2. Third Party launcher Support - We can't install any third party launcher !

 3. All Application's and Games support ( It doesn't support many applications and games ) .

 4. Live wallpaper Support - Currently Remix os 2.0 Doesn't support Live Wallpaper .

 5.Advance Menu - The ( Jide Logo ) menu just display apps and games ! There is no options for Accessories , Recently Opened applications , Games , Images etc .

 6. More Sooth user interface - The UI seems to be heavy and it hangs some times while opening multiple apps .

7. Widgets - There is a widget option , but it has only few widgets such as ( Play store , Chrome and Google Drive ) , There should be Widgets like Battery Indicator , Weather , Sticky Note etc .

 8. More Internal memory - Even If we are installing it on a Hard Drive , it only Gives 3.9 GB memory space , Memory space should be according to the space where Os is installed .

 9. Controls Support - There must be an advance option to setup Keyboard keys as a Controller ( For apps and Games ) .

 10. Direct Boot -Every Time we have to choose Guest Mode or Resident mode ( That are of no use in actual ) , There should be a Direct Boot or an option to permanently choose a Single Mode ( Guest Mode or Resident mode ) . 

 Apart from these , Jide has just done amazing Job in bringing Android Os to PC's . The Os is just awesome and can be a perfect Os for PC's in future .
