After using Derpfest Rom, I think Bliss Rom was awsome in every aspect.
Now going to install Bliss again.
Feel free to use what makes you happy
But please explain what's the problem??
and keep it on your mind that this rom is at beta stage and jens was so busy these weeks for building different roms for this device

Instructions


At least MarshMallow bootloader is required or you will not be able to boot the rom !
Latest stock firmware is recommended before installing this rom, even if it might work with older versions !
You have to reboot one time after first boot to make mobile data work.
Use the TWRP from the download-link for your device above (needs to be flashed from existing TWRP, or use ODIN version)
Download the latest build
Put it on your device
Reboot to TWRP
Take a full backup
If you want to be sure wipe the device
Flash the latest build
Clean Cache and Dalvik if you want
Reboot and enjoy




Others



Easily rootable with the great Magisk (stable) by @topjohnwu.
I use it as daily driver without major issues, except mobile data (see above).
I use microG as google replacement and for push-services, signature-spoofing is already build into the rom but need to be enabled in "Settings -> DerpQuest -> More" and granted in microG-Settings or "Settings -> Apps & notifications -> Permission manager".

No, as long as it is not added to the roms sources, I will not do it.


And that will not happen:
DerpFests telegram group: #neveradding said:
- Smart charging (battery charging limiter)
- Smart pixels
- Gaming mode (that thing with the settings)
- OmniJaws
- PA Pocketmode
- LiveDisplay or other LOS ports
- Gradient cancer
- Insecure face unlock solutions
- AppLock
- MIUI looking **** (brightness slider, vol panel etc...)
- Disco fking tiles - this is an OS not an icecream truck
- Even asking about disco QS acid **** will result in me flying to beat you up in person

Hello, I'm using your room and it's very good, but I noticed some bugs. if you download another keyboard as an example Gboard, it starts to lock the phone and it takes a long time for the keyboard to appear on the screen.

The other problem is with the 2nd Plan, when you use Youtube Vanced in the background and you go to another app like whatsapp or Facebook the youtube app closes, the same thing happened in the Teams app (App that my school is using for online class)
Other than that it is quite stable.

I would like to ask you to add a better keyboard in the room like the one from sansung. Gallery app like quickpic. Customization app just like what you had in bootleggers / Shishufied I think she is very beautiful

I used pixel launcher and I got a better and smoother experience so I would ask the developer to make Pixel launcher the default launcher.I think it would go well with the google boot animation and make it look pixelish.

@jenslody So could you replace the ROM launcher with a more compatible launcher ? it may even be the lawchair 2 you have in the Playstore

I'm not the rom developer and I don't have the capacities to maintain my own rom (I have a fulltime job and a private live).



And besides the time, I don't want to do any major changes to the rom, because I will probably try to get it official.

I use Hacker's keyboard without any issues (I need a full blown PC-like keyboard sometimes).


Third party gallery apps can be installed, if you want it, I use Simple Gallery Pro.


You already have a lot theming settings in "Settings -> DerpQuest -> Design[ -> Themes]" and "Settings -> Display" and in lawnchair, if you use it.

Yes this ROM does not even reach the feet of the BLISS ROM
You can use whatever rom you like.
Feel free to build Bliss yourself (or stay with the version on my server).


I feel better with DerpFest (at the moment), that's why I build it.
I just share my builds with other users, because I have a j5nlte and my daughter and my son have j5xnlte and building and uploading for the other three devices is not too much work.


I can stop sharing my builds (and my trees) without issues for me and it would save me a lot of time and headaches.

some people don't know other hard work and contribution. just complain about weak point and less features etc. we are lucky , we have legend developers for j5.
be mature and respect for our developers contributions.
i want to thanks @jenslody for felling alive on j5 community .
