Running Windows on the Xiaomi Pad 5

Dualboot guide (DualbootKernelPatcher)

There are two methods listed below, the first one requires root, the second one does not. Use whichever method suits you the most, as they both do the same.

Prerequisites (method 1: root required)

Setup - Android

  • Download and install the WOA Helper app, then open it and grant it root access.
  • Open WOA Toolbox, then press the DUALBOOT KERNEL PATCHER button.
  • Wait for it to finish, then reboot your device.

Booting into Windows

  • Close the magnetic case and reboot (or turn on) your device.

Booting into Android

  • Open the magnetic case and reboot (or turn on) your device.

Finished!

Prerequisites (method 2: no root required)

Opening CMD as an admin

Open CMD as an administrator, then run the below command, replacing path\to\platform-tools with the actual path to the platform-tools folder, for example C:\platform-tools.

Do not close this window. You will need to use it throughout this entire guide.

cd path\to\platform-tools

Boot the modded recovery

While in fastboot mode, replace path\to\recovery.img with the actual path of the recovery image

fastboot boot path\to\recovery.img

Back up your boot image

This will back up your boot image in the current directory (for example C:\platform-tools).

adb pull /dev/block/by-name/boot_a boot.img

Setting up required files

  • Download magiskboot.exe and move it into the platform-tools folder.
  • Download DualBootKernelPatcher.zip and extract the DualBootKernelPatcher folder into the platform-tools folder.
  • Download nabu.fd move it into the platform-tools folder.

Unpacking your boot image

Make sure boot.img is in the platform-tools folder.

./magiskboot unpack boot.img

Patching your boot image

./DualBootKernelPatcher\bin\Windows\DualBootKernelPatcher-x86_64.exe ./kernel ./nabu.fd ./output ./DualBootKernelPatcher\Config\DualBoot.Sm8150.cfg ./DualBootKernelPatcher\ShellCode\ShellCode.Nabu.bin

Renaming the kernel file

  • Delete or rename the kernel file in the platform-tools folder, then rename the output file to kernel

Repacking your boot image

This will repack your patched boot image into a new file called new_boot.img

./magiskboot repack boot.img

Reboot to fastboot

adb reboot bootloader

Flashing the patched boot image

Replace path\to\new_boot.img with the actual path of the image

fastboot flash boot_a path\to\new_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b path\to\new_boot.img

Reboot your device

fastboot reboot
