BLISS OS FOR PC


ANDROID FOR YOUR PC

An Android-based open source OS that incorporates many optimizations, features,
and that supports many more devices. What's more? It's available for just about
any Chromebook, PC or tablet released in the last 10 years.




BLISS OS FEATURES

FOCUS ON DESIGN

We have a minimal theme design, without any bloatware or unwanted adware apps

CUSTOMIZED SETTINGS

We offer many customizable options for screens, big and small, that allow you to
setup your device for whatever task is at hand



PERFORMANCE

We built the OS with a focus on speed and stability with tweaks to assist in the
most demanding use cases

COMPATIBILITY

We bring Bliss to every device we can, and our PC builds even include extra
ARM/ARM64 compatibility so you can use your favorite apps


DESKTOP OR TABLET UI

Bliss OS lets the user choose between Desktop or Tablet UI, based on the
launcher being used. You can even mix the two to truly make your system your own

TASKBAR, BY @FARMERBB

An Open Source Desktop launcher that allows the use of a bottom taskbar, with
Bliss button (start menu)

SMART DOCK BY @AXEL358

A user-friendly desktop mode launcher that offers a modern and customizable user
interface

BORINGDROID BY @UTZCOZ

An integrated desktop launcher with tasks, built into the navigation bar
(Experimental, only on 14.10)

AOSP'S QUICKSTEP

The classic Launcher3 from AOSP with some minor tweaks for desktop mode and
navigation


MORE COMPATIBILITY

Bliss OS comes with a variety of added features for compatibility, be it
ARM/ARM64 app support on your PC, letting you use the games & apps you know and
love or VA-API hardware accelerated video decoding to watch your favorite
streaming platform. Also, with the latest XtMapper keymapper, you will be able
to control your apps using a keyboard & mouse with ease.
(More app support will be added soon, also Xtmapper is still in early
development phase.)


IMMUTABLE SYSTEM


BLISS OS USES AN IMMUTABLE SYSTEM SETUP BY DEFAULT 

This ensures the operating system's core remains unchanged. The root file system
for the immutable system remains read-only, also allowing for a secure way to
update and maintain critical system structure.


PRE-ROOTED WITH KERNELSU

Bliss OS is the first Android-x86 derivative that includes weishu's KernelSU
that works with the systems immutability. With it, you can easily grant root
permission for apps and even install Magisk modules without having to install
Magisk or write to the system partition. 
(KernelSU is still in the beta stage, and modules support is still experimental)

EVERYTHING WE DO IS OPEN SOURCE

Many of our competitors offer their OS as a free download, but with no
source-code available, that typically leaves you as the product, with no way of
knowing what data they are collecting or if they are selling your data as a way
to make profits.
By making Bliss OS open source and being part of a non-profit org, it can be
ensured that nothing is being sold and no malicious code is included.


WE RESPECT YOUR PRIVACY.

Not only do we respect your privacy, but we vow to never include anything to put
your data in jeopardy. We are also constantly updating things with the latest
security updates from Google for the currently active and maintained versions of
Bliss OS. And as an open source project, all our source code is also available,
so you and others can ensure your data and safety are at the top of our
concerns. For users that have an even greater concern about their user data, we
also offer Bliss OS builds that are Google Services free, and come with F-Droid,
Aurora & microG for a truly secure user experience.




WE VOLUNTEER OUR TIME.

We are just one of many other projects under BlissLabs, a 501(c3) nonprofit, run
by people that donate their free time towards the project. We do our best to
bring a quality OS to your device, while working a real job on the side in most
cases. Please consider showing us we're on the right track by donating using the

delivered.
It is HIGHLY recommended to download Bliss OS 14.x or 15.x builds instead.
Support and updates are available for those versions.


BLISS OS COMES IN A FEW FLAVORS

Since we're usually working across multiple versions of Android with Bliss OS,
things can get a little confusing when it comes to figuring out what build type
is right for you. Here is an explanation of our currently supported variants to
help things along.


BLISS OS 14.10.X

These are generic builds based on Android 11 and BlissROMs sources. These builds
are considered stable.

XDA thread


BLISS OS 15.8.X

These are generic builds based on Android 12L and BlissROMs sources. These
builds are considered stable.

XDA thread


BLISS OS VARIATIONS

Info about what is included in the different builds and how it relates to your
hardware.

APP SERVICES

These are the apps included in the builds. Each set is a minimal set of default
apps, providing basic functionaliy.


 * Stock or Vanilla - Normally barebones, minimal apps added. Perfect for
   product testing
   
 * FOSS - Includes Free and Open Source apps and app store solutions (Aurora
   Droid for open-source apps from F-Droid repos, and Aurora Store for accessing
   the Google Play library of apps)
   
 * Gapps/GMS - Includes Google Play Services (Minimal set of apps, comparible to
   Pico/Nano)

KERNEL

The Kernel is the most low level part of a system, providing the functionality
that Bliss and the majority of other operating systems rely on. As such, it is
the most crucial part of the OS. New Kernels can cause instability in older
hardware so choose according to your computer's functionality.

How to identify the Kernel version of the ISO file?
This is the naming system we use to define kernel & system architecture in our
ISO builds.


 * x86/x86_64: Device Architecture, 32bit or 64bit respectively
   
 * _k-xxxx: Kernel Branch, e.g. _k-5.4
   


Find more info on Bliss OS Knowledge Base

MESA

Mesa is an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification. OpenGL is a
programming library for writing interactive 3D applications.
Basically, it's what handles anything 3D for Android-x86.

How to identify the Mesa version of the ISO file?


 * _m-xxxxx: Mesa Branch, e.g: m-r-x86 (r/r-x86 means stock Mesa branch in
   current manifest)
   
   
   
   Find more info on
   Bliss OS Knowledge Base

NATIVE-BRIDGE

Native-Bridge is an ARM translation layer for android x86 developed by Intel and
Google to run ARM apps on x86 architecture.

How to identify the Native-Bridge type of the ISO file?


 * houdini - Includes Intel's Houdini (Works with most Intel CPU's and some
   recent AMD CPU's)
   
 * libndk - Includes Google's libndk-translation (Works on all CPU's, but not as
   efficient as Houdini)
   


Find more info on Bliss OS Knowledge Base

SUPPORTED CPU'S

All Intel & AMD x86_64-v2 compatible CPUs
You can find more info on Bliss OS Knowledge Base or Wikipedia & Android
Developers Documentation.


SUPPORTED GPU'S

All of our builds include support for the following GPU's:


 * Intel / AMD iGPU - all supported + Vulkan
   
 * AMD Desktop GPUs - mostly supported + Vulkan
   
 * Nvidia Desktop GPUs - poor support - no vulkan

BLISS DOCS

Bliss ROMs documentation can be found on our docs site, while our development
update posts can be found on the XDA thread for that devices release version.

We recommend all users start with using the documentation we have provided
before trying to ask us questions as this not only takes away the valuable
development time we have committed towards this project, but is also a waste of
time for the user as their question may have already been answered. None of us
are paid for the work we do on Bliss, so please set your expectations
accordingly.
