Hey there,
so I thought it would be cool if I could run Yosemite on a tablet and it might be possible after this tablet is going to be released.

The tablet has a core M with 4 gb of ram and is a dual boot tablet so it can run windows and android. I've used some of these tablets and there fantastic for on the go programming and secretly playing games at work. It has intel HD 5300 so it can definitely run yosemite. Not too sure about the wifi or audio drivers since the tablet hasn't been released but do you guys thing there would be a way to get the touchscreen working? If so that would be awesome and it would be one of the first hackintosh tablets.

Yosemite has (single touch) support for USB touchscreens. Not all touchscreens are connected USB, but most are.

There is Broadwell info in the FAQ: http://www.tonymacx86.com/yosemite-...faq-read-first-laptop-frequent-questions.html
 
Got myself ordered one of them cheap Cube i7 Stylus tablets and would love to get osx working on it to. The Cube i7 has a wacom digitizer, supported in osx I would guess?

No idea. Will depend on driver availability.

I see this is a couple of months old thread, has anybody had success with this tablet?
 
Thanks for the quick reply RehabMan,
I read the Broadwell section, so I guess with the proper graphics fixes this could work? We don't know anything about the integrated wifi and bt hardware though...
Might order a tablet then to test it!

You never know until you get it in hand. The biggest problem with Broadwell graphics is whether or not you can set DVMT-prealloc.

Okay, I will definetely post here if I buy one and get to try it out.
Thanks for your help once more :)
 
I actually have one of these tablets. After a long and stressful process, I managed to install El Capitan on it. I could not for the life of me get the Intel HD Graphics 5300 to work. I followed Austere.J's guide, but the bios on this tablet is fully unlocked, you can change just about everything including the DVMT pre-allocated memory. I used clover to try and inject the graphics but it didn't work. In the "About this Mac" window it showed "Intel HD Graphics 5300 12mb". One thing that could be wrong is that I had to delete 2 of the Intel graphics kexts in order for it to boot or else it would kernel panic. I installed them back after and tried to inject the graphics again but it was a no go. Wifi doesn't work although the source code for the RTL chip is online (not sure if that'll help port its drivers or not), bluetooth doesn't work, sound doesn't work (haven't tried headphones, possible fix with VoodooHDA), I can't lower the resolution nor rotate the screen due to no graphics kext loaded. It was just a mess and the result wasn't very satisfying. I was hoping for an epic "hackbook" :cool:. I could put up a guide on how to install it, but I'm not sure it'll be worth it. It just needs a lot of work and when it comes to the real complex parts of hackintoshing, I don't have the knowledge for it. Here are some pics:
