Hey electrikjesus, This might seem off the topic of Bliss OS and I don't want to derail the topic, but if you could hear me out that'll be great. I've noticed some Android emulators, like Nox, Andy OS and friends use some sort of emulation layer like QEMU or something else (VMWare Player in...

Greetings, It's been a while since we last spoke but I was just wondering what the status is with Bliss OS. Last time I tried using Bliss on x86 was on my Windows 10 tablet which had a touch screen that I forget the name of and it didn't recognize the touch screen (even though the driver was...

For those who are a little too bleeding edge and like to adventure outside the recommended method that electrikjesus recommends, here's how to "prep" a USB using syslinux EFI to run Bliss 7.x/10.x. Also, I'd appreciate it if he could link it in the first post as a "experimental syslinux EFI"...

I will update this pot with a "Convert system.sqs to system.img for USB manual installs" when I get to my work station. ---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ---------- This is not a Android emulator. This is Bliss running as an Android OS. You won't be...

Root directory. It should be named syslinux.cfg , not syslinux.cfg.text or anything else

Sorry, I don't quite follow. Are you saying that rt5651 is causing trouble as well and is being resolved? On the silead front, hmm. Guess I'll have to extract my firmware from my tablet and give it a shot. Although what is "silead_dmi" then (it's in the kernel under x86 platform device...

I gave Oreo a shot and was able to get it to boot fine. Used a custom-built USB with EFI syslinux because GRUB2 caused the tablet to shut off every time it would attempt to boot EFI GRUB. Touchscreen was no-go, although it did manage to see the chip ID. It was looking for...

Alright, I'm getting somewhere. I'm noticing that the avc daemon is blocking a lot of requests to access /dev/dri/card0. Is that normal or do I need to specify a boot parameter to allow that? Seems the animations and stuff aren't hardware accelerated due to AVC blocking requests to those. Seems...

Thanks for that. Are firmware files copied to the filesystem image when the kernel is compiled or is that part of the 'lunch' android build process?

Alright, thanks for that electrikjesus. Only question I have is what do the kernels mean in your repo? There's heaps of them, and I'm currently basing my kernel on k4.12-cr-sp-ip. I don't know what the suffixes are for, so I just picked the one that looked the most recent. Compling went fine on...

Would the Bliss team be able to point me in the right direction as to how to build my own kernel (and if needed, ramdisk/initrd) to use with Bliss x86? I believe there's some kernel settings missing for Atom x5 Z8350 Cherry Trail tablets. I want to test my own kernel build as there's no audio...

Firstly, a big thanks for showing the x86 platform some love in regards to Android. I have a MeeGoPad T09 which is an Atom-based PC and I have been able to boot Bliss-x86 on it using a USB key install. It's slow, but it works. The only issue so far is there seems to be no support for the Intel...

It could be that there is no update mechanism implemented as of yet.

Do the install as shown in the first post. Just don't format your internal memory. Lineage OS has it's own update mechanism, but since this is unofficial, it probably won't have notifications for new builds unless the builder has set a server up that will push new builds for OTA updating. It's...

Thank you for confirming. Turns out I did not have the Marshmallow Bootloader installed. Also, has anyone got working 3G/4G data? I tried a marshmallow radio and it didn't give me mobile data. I tried the modem linked in the first post, and selected the right APN, but it hasn't popped the icon...

Can anyone else confirm that the latest build doesn't boot? On my T705 it just hangs on the "Samsung Galaxy Tab S T705 powered by Android" screen. Or do I have to wait a while?

You'll need to replace the screen. That's burn in right there. AMOLEDs are quite prone to it depending on the generation.

Updated SM-T705 to latest CM 12.1 Nightly available (20160529) and "No SIM Card" I just upgraded my ROM from a older version of Android 5.1 that was like a Feb/March build of CM 12.1. I took the latest that was offered via the CM Updater; and after backing up it applied succesfully. However...

Apparently I can't record videos. I go into "Camcorder mode" inside the Google Camera, go to aim, press the record button, make some beatbox noises for a few seconds to see how well it picks up sounds and whatnot, then press Stop. I hear the "ding ding" to say the recording finished, but there's...

Okay, first of all, I flashed the most recent build available to my Z3. Flashed smoothly on my D6653 after I hacked the build.prop to force it to install (D6653 is the Telstra variant here in Australia). I'm going to take a educated guess that the screen flicker is due to the GPU driver for the...

Thanks. I actually flashed deadman's last build (the one with reported calls working) and it booted fine. LTE radio initialized correctly, got 4G on Optus. Still has that little quirk where it'll lose data reception for a while, a quick toggle of 4G/3G in the settings will kick the modem back...

i dunno, but for me it just bricked my tablet and pegs the CPU at 100% causing a really hot spot on the back of the tablet when booting at the CM mascot face thing. left it for 20 mins, and it wouldn't boot.

Could someone link me the last working build of the ROM? I just applied a "official" CM update (I think it was the 26th December klimtlte official one) via the auto updater tool and pretty much bricked my tablet (apart from TeamWin Recovery Mode). ttopia.co.uk just gives me 403 Forbidden now.

Which build is the latest? I can't find it in the Google Drive mirror.

Has there been any builds since the last build, or has the dev vanished?

Anyone else experience a delay when sending texts before it will actually send?

carlo.cagnoli: No, you need to root to be able to install the custom recovery, which will allow you to then install this ROM.

Manual flash for people who don't have ODIN. Make sure you eject your SIM Card before you do this. Open a terminal, get root (or use a ADB Shell on Windows/Linux with the remote root access enabled in Dev Settings). Copy the modem.bin in the first post to your external SD. If you put it on the...

What I meant was the radio I'm using is from a KitKat ROM as I was using CM12.1 that the other dev had built. So I went from Kitkat straight to CM12.1, bypassing the Lollipop Touchwiz ROM for the device. So I'll need to flash it or not?

Thank heavens that I stumbled across this ROM. I was sad when the other dev threw his arms up and pulled the pin, going away from XDA. I will try the ROM out because I'm very close to regretting my purchase of this device, mainly because it feels unsupported in the open source community and I...

vincer0102... yep, just note that you may have better/worse reception because I think the modems in the ZIPs are optimized for that region. On a general note, I flashed the AU 5.1.1 D6653 ROM over the top of SlimLP. The stock ROM installer went though, hosed SlimLP and went from there.

Is there a list of the bloatware we can remove in the System partition? I perfer to remove all the apps I won't use, because well, what's the point of them hogging valuable resources? :P

Thanks for confirming that. Scheduled it to be installed tomorrow. Now I just need way to remove the horrible bloat that comes with the stock ROMs...

I've already unlocked my bootloader. Can I flash the appropriate ROM for my device (D6653) anyway? Or does it absolutely require locked bootloader?

Does this ROM have the fisheye camera issue that seems to exist on CM12/Slim/AOSP ROMs?

Yeah, I did. Haven't had time to fix it up though, been busy. Still annoyed about the fisheye issue. Le sigh...

Seems to be an issue, trying to boot into recovery when at the Sony logo will just boot the SlimLP but without the radio initialized. Might look into that tomorrow.

Unforunately, this ROM has the fisheye issue. I'm using a D6653 (Australian Telstra variant). Is there any known fixes or am I just unlucky? EDIT: Hmmm... Baseband seems to be "Unknown". That's odd...

How's the camera? Still fisheyed?

Does this ROM have the issue where the camera photos are fisheyed? Or has that been "fixed" ?

Does the camera capture curved photos still, and is the delay before the call or picking up a call fixed?

Sounds about right.

I got mine from a Hong Kong based crowd (Yatango). I thought I'd get the Snapdragon as per their description, but I got the Exynos instead. Originally I was confused but then I read that there were some variants of the device with Snapdragon CPU. I haven't seen any custom ROMs so far for the...

Just keep a backup of the official firmware, and you will be OK. I got my SM-T705 from a Hong Kong based online retailer. I haven't had any phones or devices die on me from custom ROM flashing. YMMV.

It would, unless the LTE modem chip is different or the partition layout has changed. Also, just a tip: If you need to flash a recovery in a pinch and your current recovery is borked (which happened to me due to a mistake), if you are running a build of this ROM, you can dd the CyanogenMod...

When I was running the 0319 build of the ROM, I found the bootloader battery charging icons to be offcenter. For example, on stock firmware, the images would be in the middle of the screen, but when I was running CM12, the images got offset to the right. To see what I mean, turn off the tablet...

This looks like a really useful app. I'll give it a shot. Just a request: Please also don't riddle it with ads. I'd gladly donate, but I'm really sick and tired of seeing apps get infected with ads and/or "suggest you install this free companion app that will mine your data while you use our...

Thanks mate. Will give that a shot.

I never thought i'd see CM12 on my Galaxy Tab S. Thank the heavens that some kind soul has compiled CM12 for the T705. **** TouchWiz, hello clean CyanogenMod! EDIT: Could someone please link me to the 19 build of this ROM? I flashed the latest and it's just erroring with the Setup Wizard.

Do we need the locked bootloader? Or will the ROM flash onto a unlocked bootloader? I've got an Australian D6653 variant, but reports say the D6603 firmware works none the less.
