How to install on pc with legacy bios secure boot not supported
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Using the suggested bootable USB install method maybe?
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Uploading a forgotten Kernel-4.18 build. Changelog is between the previous and the last release, maybe a week or two before my last update actually... This should help those using some AMD & Nvidia GPUs too.

This build will not have IPTS support though.

Please test and let me know the results. Thanks!!

Going to test this when I get home. Do you have any knowledge of cpu governers and intel_pstate? I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to get frequency scaling working on Intel chips, and iv had quite a few sleepless nights trying to figure it out. Any info would be cool (:
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
I haven't added any of the traditional Android performance governors. Just what comes with the mainline Linux kernel. I've been waiting for [MENTION=5037435]REV3NT3CH[/MENTION] to get his x86 on and hopefully show me a thing or two about kernels ;)

Working on a little update for Pie to include some proposed patches for Android-x86 to fix freeform window dragging and resizing, along with adding a back button to the titlebar. Will post more news on that soon. Other updates in the works are to add the rest of the missing pieces for selecting combinations of GRALLOC & HWC. If things all turn out to be running nicely, I'll push the results on up to Sourceforge.
[BLISS ROMS Development] andretrek:
Hello, yesterday I installed Bliss OS on my Microsoft Surface Go (first gen) using the installation method recommended for beginners in the Bliss OS documentation. The specific rom I installed was "Bliss-v11.10--OFFICIAL-20191215-1101_x86_64_k-k4.19.24-ax86-ipts2_m-18.3.5-pie-x86-llvm80_ld-2.4.99-ma-p_dg-pie-x86_dh-undefined_gms.iso".

The installation was a success, and almost everything seemed to work fine out of the box, including Wi-Fi. The only major problem I noticed was that attempting to enter sleep mode by pressing the power button would completely lock up the device instead of entering a sleep state. So I looked for information about this problem and saw in this thread and in the one for Bliss OS 12 that adding the options 'VULKAN=1' or 'GRALLOC=gbm' to the GRUB boot configuration could potentially fix this issue.

I tried both of them (one at a time), and indeed both fixed the problem. 'GRALLOC=gbm' even fixed another minor issue I'd noticed where the apps in the Recent Items menu appeared blank.

However, when I boot Bliss OS with either of these options, my touch screen becomes wholly unresponsive. I found this to be rather strange, as when I boot without these options the touch screen works fine.

Is there anything I can do fix this?

--EDIT--

Well, after some more fiddling i've managed to boot into Bliss OS with the 'GRALLOC=gbm' option and the touchscreen functioning correctly, but I couldn't say what exactly fixed it.

The only thing I did differently this time was that I edited the GRUB boot entry through Windows to include this option, as in my other attempts I was adding the option by pressing the "E" key to edit the boot configuration directly in the GRUB menu.
[BLISS ROMS Development] bisio971:
Hi, first of all, reinstalling the os now rotation doesn't freeze the device anymore. I think the problem was related to some modifications I did on the UI through Bliss settings. After reinstalling I didn't touch that part and now it rotates with no issues, though I have to do it manually.

I'll try to search for the kernel modules, I don't know where to start but I'll try figuring out.

Really really thanks for your work and sorry for the late response

Desktop Asus P8P67, internet connection

Hi,

I'm new to this, but I'm trying different Android distributions on my Asus P8P67 desktop PC.

I also wanted to try Bliss OS. I only managed to install, but I don't have an internet connection in any of the many versions used.

If I connect WiFi, I won't find a network. No wonder. My desktop PC doesn't have WiFi. I am connected classically by cable.

Do I just choose the wrong version? Or is there an unknown procedure on my LAN connection?

For example, the PrimeOS I tested detects the cable connection immediately after installation.

Thank you for your answer and help with the solution.

Data image size

Hi, thanks for your job and contribution. I installed BLISS 11 in ASUS TP410u along with WIN 10, everything is OK, but I realiezed that in the 20 GB partition for BLISS it only see 8 GB, in the installation guide says "Then the installer will ask you how much space you want to allocate for the data image. Most users choose 8 GB, 16 GB, or 32 GB.", it didnt ask anything. Is there any way to increase it or reinstall it with more memory? Thanks
[BLISS ROMS Development] JrOmnia:
Just trying my luck here, is there any 32bit version?
[BLISS ROMS Development] panRajce:
Hi, I don't know if this will really be the answer to your case .... but try RMX Tools ... you can use it to increase the size of the data.img file that Android takes as storage.

However, it is an application for Windows, so it will require your Android Bliss OS partition to be visible to Windows (NTFS).

Amazon prime video or Netflix not working

Hello, I am new to Bliss OS and also Androidx86 on PC. I was able to successfully install Bliss OS v11 & 12 without any issues on my Dell Inspiron 3147 2-in-1 laptop. Only problem I am facing is, unable to install Amazon Prime Video, Netflix or Disney plus apps either from Playstore or as APKs. Can someone please let me know if these apps are suppose to work or am I using wrong build? FYI, all these apps work without issues using Prime OS. I really appreciate your help.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Those are all ARM dependent apps and will require Bliss OS 11, with the native bridge modules enabled and installed. And you should also realize that we are working a good 3-4 versions of Android ahead of Prime OS, and ours is open source, so comparing our work to theirs is meaningless
[BLISS ROMS Development] vishvam_430:
Sorry, I didn't mean to compare just saying those apps work on my hardware with Prime OS. I also had native Bridge enabled but with no luck. Would you please let me know if I am missing something in order to make Netflix & prime video work with Bliss OS?

Bliss OS 11.11 x86_64 Generic - With Vulkan and other graphics options - Build Date 2020-06-24

!! Please remember to not quote these update posts, or any of the OP's !!

This build picks up where the last one left off and is using all the Android-x86 repos for most things in the source. After this, we will be picking Bliss OS 11.11 apart and handing things up the ladder for Android-x86 project.

Release Notes:

- Switched su to Android-x86's Superuser.

- Switched back to Houdini from ChromeOS with recent updates from the latest ChromeOS recoveries

- Went with Mesa, gralloc, hwc, etc. from Android-x86

- Added back button to freeform window titlebar (thanks to [MENTION=8539180]utzcoz[/MENTION] & [MENTION=1870779]ROGERT[/MENTION] )

- Fixed glitches with window dragging and resizing (thanks to [MENTION=8539180]utzcoz[/MENTION] )

The Positives:

- Hulu works again

- Updates for many devices that were previously having issues booting.

The Negatives:

- Latest Netflix is back to not working

Notes on sleep states:

- They work on most machines when using Vulkan mode. DRM/GRALLOC mode results may vary.

To run in Vulkan mode:

- You will need to select Vulkan from advanced grub menu, or manually add "VULKAN=1" to Grub command line

Builds being uploaded:

Bliss-v11.11--OFFICIAL-20200624-2026_x86_64_k-k4.19.122-ax86-ga-rmi_m-p9.0-x86_dgc-p9.0-03.15.20_ld-p9.0-x86_dg-p9.0-x86_dh-p9.0-x86_mg-p9.0-x86.iso

Native Bridge:

The process for enabling native bridge has changed again, but it is enabled by default out of the box. (too many people complained about the download for houdini, so we went back to this for now)

Known new issues:

Some navbar issues still persist when using Taskbar. Please set a fallback Gesture method in the Blissify app first, then switch navbar to SmartBar, then disable it and enable Taskbar. This can also be switched later using Quick Tiles from the statusbar. **Update Taskbar through Play Store to fix for now.

Sleep states might not be working right by default on non Vulkan & IA-Hardware-Composer builds (Still working on it). Some can cause SystemUI to restart (lockscreens won't be of any use due to this)

Power buttons may still not work on a few machines.

Some SDcards might not mount right. Please use SDCARD=/dev/sdx from Grub or manually mount from alt-f1 console

Changelogs are working again:

Please help with choosing the most suitable assembly for PC on Asus P8P67, Intel i5-2500K CPU (year 2011), 16GB RAM, nVidia 980 GPU, Logitech USB keyboard + Wireless Logitech mouse, non-touch monitor DELL 2209WA 1680x1050px, I try to use for the game LifeAfter + Octopus.

I've tried many versions of the Android OS.

PrimeOS Standard 0.4.5 is functional, but it has graphical errors for LA - it uses kernel 4.14 and mesa 17.1.10.

Bliss 11.10 (for example Bliss-v11.10 - OFFICIAL-20200411-1427_x86_64_k-k4.9.214-ax86-p_m-18.3.5-llvm80_ld-pie-x86_dg-pie-x86_dh-pie-x86) and above I run, but when launch LA game crashes.

I achieved the best results in stability with Bliss-v11.9--OFFICIAL-20190525-2025_x86_64_k-k4.9.153_m-18.3.5-pie-x86-llvm80_f-dev-kernel.org .... the game is running, the graphics are great even for the highest details. Unfortunately, just the game itself. When you try to use Octopus, the game cannot start.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Octopus does that on a lot of games with Bliss (almost as if they are targeting our os for it to not work on purpose) , this is why most have success with Tincore Keymapper
[BLISS ROMS Development] panRajce:
I don't think it's aimed directly at your Bliss. I also tried the distribution from the Android-x86 project (android-x86_64-9.0-r2) and Octopus also doesn't work here.

I haven't tried Android-x86 with Nougat or Oreo yet. Maybe Octopus is looking for what's missing in Pie Android-x86.

Phoenix OS, based on Nougat, a source for Android-x86, has a directly implemented Octopus and works. But for my purposes, it has annoying bugs in Open GL (flashing or completely missing textures, disappearing objects, ......).

But that's just my consideration.

Safe mode

Hello,

First, congrats everyone involved on this project, Bliss OS is really easy to install and it worked in my, almost 10 years old laptop. I was surprised how smooth it is.

But I need a help on something that is preventing me to use it properly, I probably messed up because my Bliss OS always starts os Safe Mode, so I can install third parties app, but I'm not able to open then.

I have a Dell Inspiron 14 N4050 running a windows 10. My Bios doesnt have secure boot options, I tried everything that I found online to make sure secure boot was disable.

Hope you guys can help on this.

Thanks in advance.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
You would have to show us the grub options your device is booting with. Safe mode can be tripped from there, or by holding vol-down (or up, not sure) while booting, so unless your laptop has a stuck key somewhere, not really certain
[BLISS ROMS Development] Marvelous Marlon:
Hey, man, Thanks for the reply

I linked my grub options, not sure if it is attached here.

Not sure if any keys are stuck, I'll disconect my keyboard and try another one, I guess.

Thanks for posting

I have a surface pro 5.

Can you please tell me where did you add these commands?

I tried adding them by pressing 'e' on the grub screen but it doesn't seem to work.

I tried to add them before the Android parameters and in them, and at the end. But I think I am missing something here.

I really appreciate your help.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
After you can't boot, add 'nomodeset' to your grub command by pressing 'e' at the menu and add that word before quiet. Once booted, use alt-f1 to get to root terminal and enter the command from the Surface instructions there. Then reboot by typing 'reboot' or by hitting alt-f7 to get back to UI and use the power menu
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
Thank you for your answer.

I really appreciate all the work you are doing.

Thank you.

If I did everything correctly it seems that this does not fix anything on the SP5. Hardware buttons and sleep mode are still non functioning, everything else works great.

If there is anything I can do to help please let me know.

Thank you again.

11.11 on a GB-BXBT-2807

Hi. I installed 11.11 on a GB-BXBT-2807 and was pleasantly surprised that it actually booted. :D I had been tinkering with the Android-x86 builds and not having much luck so kudos!

I do have a couple of things going on and a search of this thread doesn't seem to get me answers (or I'm doing it wrong). First thing is an oddity when I push the Bliss Icon to get the menu up it pops up but as I hover over to whatever I want to open it quickly goes away. I've gotten decent and knowing where to have my pointer so if I quickly move there as the menu is drawing sometimes I'm lucky to be in the right spot and can quickly click. Is this a known thing?

Second, I can't put credentials in the play store or add a the account from the accounts page in settings. I assume both places are calling the same thing but what I see it a brief flash of the Google "Checking Info" screen and then it goes back to the previous screen.

UPDATE to the above... I used the more basic launcher and via that one got a notification that updates were available. Much to my surprise it let me update things (including google play store) without logging in. Once that was done I was able to put credentials in and can run the store from both launchers. Very odd....

I can pull the drive (this is from a full install to an SSD) and look for logs if that helps.

Thanks for any help - I'm really hoping this can be thrown on the TV in the kids play area.
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
I have the same problem. Did you find a way to enable native bridge on the surface? Thank you.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
The initial credentials issue is due to a needed update to webview I think. I or someone else could pull the updated apk off the device, and I could include that in the next update.

Taskbar start (bliss) menu issue, some users reported this on Telegram and found that they can move the mouse around the menu and enter from the top, they are able to select an icon then. Its an odd issue, so if you're able to collect logs of the event, I could pass those along to the dev for that app ( [MENTION=4289533]farmerbb[/MENTION] )

And no need to pull the drive for logs, just use the alt-f1/alt-f7 console to : logcat > sdcard/log.txt
[BLISS ROMS Development] Marvelous Marlon:
Dude,

I removed my keyboard and... IT WORKED. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
It seems that native bridge is disabled in the surface pro 5 build prop. Am I supposed to turn that value to a 1 or am I so over my head and going to cause my device to bootloop?
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Should go to Settings > Android-x86 Settings > And enable it there. It will either download or it will already be enabled, depending on what build you downloaded
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
Thank you for replying.

We do not have the 'Android-x86 settings' in the settings menu in the latest ipts build for the surface pro 5.

So I understand that I shouldn't be touching the build prop?

Thank you.

I appreciate your work.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Oh, I glanced over that part then. Didn't realize you were on an IPTS build

Houdini should be enabled by default then using Houdini from Chrome OS in those
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
My apologies.

I don't know what made me think that I couldn't run ARM based apps in this rom.

Netflix runs well.

Thank you for the amazing work.

I would like to ask you if we will ever see a functioning sleep mode on the ipts builds?

That's the only missing feature . Other than that everything works perfect.

Thank you again.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Sleep modes are all fixed in the latest 11.11 versions, so I might be able to run off another IPTS build. Are you on the latest one I uploaded?
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
That's awesome!

Thank you for answering

It seems that the latest Bliss version for IPTS devices is 11.10 as can be seen from the attached screenshot.

I am on the latest version.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
So I finally had the issue some of you have reported where Downloading the Native Bridge Libraries seems to have worked, but none of the apps you install seem to work. The solution is to use a tool like Android PC Toolbox ( http://bbs.phoenixstudio.org/en/showthread.php?tid=9661 ) to create a new data.img (deleting your current data.img first) then setup your Bliss PC again, and enable native bridge from Settings before downloading anything from Play Store.

I was able to reproduce this solution twice so far, so it should work for you all too ;)
[BLISS ROMS Development] Dasmikko:
Is it possible to manually install the IPST firmwares on the non IPTS build?
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
No, it requires its own kernel which requires to be built into the system
[BLISS ROMS Development] Dasmikko:
Alright, thanks for the response. I'm experiencing issues with touch stop working after some time with the IPTS version. And hoped the latest version would help.
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
I am just wondering if the battery indicator is also fixed in the latest 11.11 version?

I know you are busy with other projects but I can't help asking if we will see the 11.11 IPTS version anytime soon?

Thank you very very much.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
I've actually been busy working on Pie lately.

Preview attached
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
Thank you.

The preview image could not be loaded. It shows error 404 Not found.

Now I am curious what the image shows:D
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Try that preview again...
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
Awesome!

I see that the battery indicator is working.

Can't wait to install it on my SP5.

Everything is much faster than Windows. Even browsing the web.

Thank you sooooooo much.

A installation problem

I am trying to install Bliss OS 11.11 (x86_64) from USB but I have a problem:

Once the USB is booted and it starts in the BIOS, when I choose "instalation", a screen appears that says "Choose partition" and the options "Create / Modify" and "Detect devices" appear. When I give "Create / Modify" an error appears saying "Fatal error: primary partition 0 incorrect".

Notes: My BIOS is UEFI and I have disabled "Secure Boot".

It has also tried creating a partition from W10 in NTFS format and does not recognize it either.

I want to get a dual boot between W10 and Bliss OS so I can't use "Auto Install".

I boot the USB with Rufus on FAT32 file system and with MBR partition scheme.

Could you help me? Thank you very much.
[BLISS ROMS Development] xhamadeex:
I installed Bliss 11.10 on my SP5 using the android x86 tool accompanied when you extract the iso. I'm dual booting without a problem.
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
As the other user stated, if you already have a windows install, we recommend using the .exe installer we package in the .iso. Make sure you have plenty of space on your Windows C:\ drive, clean up any previous Android-x86 installs and then run the installer. If you have a previous Android-x86 variant installed, hit the "clean Up" button in the installer first, then after that completes, you can select the .iso, and drag the slider to how much space you want your data.img to use.

You may also need to adjust your UEFI boot order after install so that Android is on the top of the list.
[BLISS ROMS Development] Rodri90:
Hi again, I am following your advice and trying to install it using the .exe installer. However, once the installer is done, I press reboot + shift and I continue with the process, and it gets stuck on "Detecting Android-x86" I left it for a long time and I can't get it to work. What is wrong with the installation?

The installation instructions say that for Android Pie you have to use a command in grub, when should I use it?

Note: I have installed Bliss OS in c: and I have given it a data size of 48gb.

I am very grateful for your responses.

Whatsapp web from Bliss OS

Hi electrikjesus,

Thankyou for the fantastic rom. I have installed it and it works great so far.

TL;DR

I need a way to emulate the camera for logging into whatsapp web on this. Is it possible to use web cam or pass through a screenshot when the WhatsApp requests scanning QR Code for log in?

Full:

I have created a virtual machine where BLISS Os is installed and whatsapp will be installed here. This will be used as a central place where whatsapp will be used to log into web.whatsapp in 4 Laptops.

The issue is that I have no way of using camera on Bliss OS. So I am unable to scan the QR Code from those laptops. So I need a way to emulate the camera. I can pass my webcam of my PC to the virtual machine. But how do I access this web camera in BLISS OS?

If it is not possible to use webcam in BLISS OS then is it possible to emulate camera such that a photo can be selected and it is recognized by BLISS OS as camera Input?
[BLISS ROMS Development] electrikjesus:
Most of my test devices have a camera module that works in Bliss OS. So with your devices, try and find the name of the camera module first, then google it and add "linux kernel module" to the search string. See if you can find us some drivers for those things and i can add them to the next update
