Hi,

was somebody able to run BlissOS 14.3 in VirtualBox on a Linux Host?

I've tried every setting in VirtualBox but I can't even get the Live Boot to work. Just a blinking cursor.

When trying to install after the installation guide GRUB can't be installed and I can choose between "Retry" and "Skip". I've tried both and when skipping GRUB installation the installation finishes but when I try to boot nothing happens besides - You guessed it - a blinking cursor.

Some time ago I've installed BlissOS (not sure which version) in VirtualBox on a Windows Host. So does anybody know if the problem relates to the Linux Host or is it a BlissOS problem?

I've also tried android-x86 and needed to try some settings in VirtualBox but after some time this one was able to boot.

Has anybody an idea?

Hi

In my company, we have a batch of retired Lenovo Miix 310-10ICR Tablet (ideapad) - Type 80SG tablet PCs. These machines are not enough powerful to run modern Windows machines fluidly, so they were retired. I had the idea of repurposing them with Chrome OS Flex or some Android ROM, and this is how I found Bliss OS.

I have been testing the machines and I'm in a pair of blocking issues for which I don't find a solution

The most serious is that I can set a pin/password/pattern lock in the machines. With the Android 9 based ROMs this works but not with the Android 11/12 variants. The machine has no TPM chip, I'm not sure if this can have any relation with the issue.

The other problem is the cameras are not working, for this I have a theory, it seems that the cameras for this device use the atomisp kernel driver, this driver was retired time ago for not being properly maintained but it's in process of being resurrected (https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.8-Media-Updates) although is still in the staging folder of the kernel sources so it must not be ready for production use yet

A third problem is that automatic screen rotation is no working, this is not a serious problem as the rotation can be managed manually with an app

I would to ask you if you have some idea or advice about how to resolve these problems, the first one is the most impeding as you can't deploy hardware for which you can't set the basic security measures

Thank you very much :)

Hey... just a query, I have seen no updates at all from the developers of this, and wondered whether BlissOS is infact a dead project now? it would be such a shame as BlissOS Pie is a brilliant beast :-) I have been looking forward to 12L builds... they are a little buggy atm but have not seen any further developement for ages. Anyone have any insight to this?
[Android Software Development] JerseyChewi:
I sure hope it's not dead, as I just installed it! It seems less dead than Android-x86 at least. Assuming there's still life...

Is there any way to disable double tap to sleep from the home screen? I searched around to no avail. It's quite annoying.

Also just curious. The installer recommended ext3 over ext4, which seems odd to me. Anyone know the reason?
[Android Software Development] HMTheBoy154:
ofc it is not dead yet

Hi folks.

I'm trying to follow the VirtualBox installation (https://docs.blissos.org/install-bliss-os/install-in-a-virtual-machine/install-in-virtualbox) with the 'android_x86_64-a12.1_r1-03.16.22-01-mesa22-ksu-gapps-libndk-sd.iso' downloaded from its official source.

Everything works up to the point where I'm supposed to install Grub to the virtual disk, which is when I'm getting an error I can't seem to get past...

BTW, host system is as follows. Any help appreciated.

System: Host: vmint-pc Kernel: 5.4.0-121-generic x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: MATE 1.26.0 Distro: Linux Mint 20.3 Una

I've been testing 14.3 with an Asus CN60 Chromebox and it probably my favorite Android x86 build to date. It feels super polished in a way that other builds have not.

Gearlock tries to expand my system image with the main build and borks it in the process. Reading online puts blame on sse4.2, but my processor supports that.

The newer x86_64 foss build gives me a kernel panic at boot, the slightly older build(202107152110) boots fine.

There is a bug in the k5.10 builds, it seems like a system binary needs to be updated :

This leads to freezes when you start running out of ram. Ripping the 5.4 kernel and injecting it into the x86_64 foss build corrects the issue and runs wonderfully.

The foss builds come with rusty-magisk, but it seems to be broken. The su binary exists but is unusable. I removed it and replaced it with initrd-magisk to get Magisk to work. Needed the Viper4Android module and got it working in the end.

But apart from these little issues, this build truly is amazing. Thank you so much for making and sharing it.

For other users, here are some fresh Kodi builds if you want them. There are official Jenkins builds now, but they do not build binary addons for Android. The x86_64 build here lacks most addons too, but does have InputStream Adaptive at least.

This is how I managed to install:

Format the USB stick in Rufus with GPT.

Format the HDD you going to intall to with GPT, an EFI partition (FAT32) and a partition with EXT4 "BEFORE" you installing the Bliss OS.

If not, Grub will not be installed.

hi just want to ask

did this os support touchscreen and multitouch touch like in the phone ?

i want to buy loki handheld pc and want to dual boot with this os
[Android Software Development] fddm:
Depends entirely on the touchscreen controller being supported by Linux and when that support was added. I couldn't find any information on the platform you mentioned though. Just some vague marketing stuff.

It's............. there ?

It actually not just ffmpeg problem, it's the whole video playback in general with the new fix of gbm_gralloc. The solution currently is to use another gralloc/hwc

I don't understand what you mean by this. But please remember that from Android 12L Google provide a new taskbar and that is a part of the framework now.

Bluetooth audio ? This is new, I only tried with my BTR3K on 14.10 and it's fine.

We don't have any browsers yet, still planning to choose which one as the default.

idk about this, but I installed apps through Play Store or Aurora and it's fine.

Any plug-in browser is suitable (without binding to Google services).

I tried installing Google Chrome: > (attach files)
[Android Software Development] HMTheBoy154:
You mean bring back the old Navbar ? Well then just install apps from Play Store then, this is Android 12L which Google brought the new taskbar in for tablet UI.

If you want to use this taskbar while having the pinned app, there is an option at Blissify Settings => Gestures => System navigation

Both of them have the different Bluetooth stack. Also I just tested on my Sony SRS-XB23 and still no problem

As a user of Bliss OS, I would like to request the addition of support for Ericsson F3507g mobile broadband hardware. This would allow me to use my Ericsson F3507g mobile broadband device with Bliss OS, giving me the ability to connect to the internet while on the go.

The Ericsson F3507g is a widely used mobile broadband device that is compatible with many different operating systems. However, it is currently not supported by Bliss OS. Adding support for this hardware would make Bliss OS more accessible and useful to a larger number of users.

I understand that adding support for new hardware can be a time-consuming and resource-intensive task. However, I believe that the benefits of supporting the Ericsson F3507g mobile broadband device far outweigh the costs. I strongly urge the Bliss OS team to consider adding support for this hardware in a future release.

Thank you for your consideration.

Looong thread so haven't read through all of it (sorry).

Used Bliss a couple of years ago on my Surface pro 4 but the battery died so now I'm looking into trying to install Bliss on my surface pro 7 plus. Is the surface pro 7 plus supported?

I have a Ubuntu PC and my initial effort was to install on a USB drive and use it when I want to run Android. However the installation failed due to some grub failure. So I ended up doing a manual installation inside my Ubuntu installation. I just copied 3 files to a folder on my Ubuntu ext4 drive and added a custom.cfg to grub.

Which are the 3 files ?

I have the bliss os iso file

Can I copy files into windows ext4 drive ?

You can unzip the iso to find the 3 files. Windows doesn't use an ext4 flle system. So I am not sure if this can be done with Windows. I have only done this with an existing Ubuntu installation.

If I remember correctly about the Conexant mic, it is actually use mono instead of stereo. So what you should do is using alsa_mixer or alsa_amixer on terminal to mute one side of the mic (could be the right side) like this and then try to record. But you will have to do this in every boot

About the camera, idk. You can try again

Hey there,

I'd like to use bliss for a (smart) home screen at home. Everything runs fine and I like it very much.

One last issue i couldnt resolve is a buggy "sleep" mode.

I installed 15.8 on a Shuttle x50v6. If the device wakes up from sleep, the touchscreen isnt acting like a touchscreen anymore, its acting like a touchpad with a cursor. After reboot everything is working as expected.

As an Alternative I'd be happy if the device stays awake but only the screen itself shuts down. But it seems impossible, "display timeout" leads to complete sleep mode.

Is there a plain display off delay without sleep?

Or

Is it able to set up like a phone when pressing the powerbutton once the screen gets off?

I'tested hours different settings.

Grub: Vulkan=1 does'nt change this behavior.

With Ubuntu, the Touchscreen keeps working even after sleep.

Thankanfor your thoughts!

Hello everyone. I'm having trouble running BlissOS on Surface Pro 3.

I've installed it several ways and it still won't boot. Automatic install mode didn't work either. After installation, I press the system to start but the system does not start and goes to the bios. I will check if any of the older versions will work. Are android to pc sleep issues a common problem?

I've found a solution, which is switch to the latest plain Android-X86 version (Android 9).

I am missing some features, but with X86 it is possible to switch the screen completely off and the device does not go into sleep mode - which is buggy also in Android X86.

I'd love to see this possibility in BlissOS. And I am wondering why it is not because of Bliss is based on Android-x86.
