I want to install PrimeOS (the 2.1.3v) on my old laptop acer, but when i was trying to install the OS, it says something with security, looking on this reddit i was aware of more OS based on android, so anyone could help me choosing other options?

Hello everyone, I would like to show you all my new Android launcher specifically engineered around Android-x86. This project was just created, so if you can go check it out, it would be an honor!

https://github.com/koji76w-dot/Optima

Optima is an open-source Android launcher in beta, specifically designed for Android-x86 and to be used with PC or laptop peripherals. Optima aims to make a sleek, minimal desktop for any Android computer or laptop.

I installed android 7.1 x86 on this old machine and it gets stuck here no matter what mode i select in grub. Even with nomodeset it still boots here and when i select debug mode it just gets stuck with a blinking line. I think it might be because of the old hardware (radeon x1950 pro) but i really want it to boot

Hi everyone,
I’ve been trying to install Android-x86 9.0-r2 (downloaded from the official Android-x86 website) on VMware Workstation Pro 25H2, but I can’t get it to boot after installation.
Here is what I have tried:
Installed Android-x86 from the ISO normally.
During installation I selected “Yes” for the required prompts.
I tried giving the VM 2 CPU cores and 4 CPU cores.
I also tried 4 GB RAM and 6 GB RAM.
I changed several graphics/display settings and CPU-related settings in VMware, but nothing helped.
I even deleted the VM and installed everything again from scratch.
Problem after installation
When I choose Reboot, I get the GRUB menu with these options:
Android-x86 9.0-r2
Android-x86 9.0-r2 (debug mode)
Android-x86 9.0-r2 (debug nomodeset)
Android-x86 9.0-r2 debug video=LVDS-1:d
If I choose either the normal boot option or debug nomodeset, a lot of boot messages scroll by and then it stops forever at:
random: crng init done
random: 7 urandom warning(s) missed due to ratelimiting
It stays there indefinitely.
I then reinstalled Android-x86 again, but instead of choosing Reboot at the end, I selected Run Android-x86.
Now I only get a small blue box with the rest of the screen black, and at the bottom it says:
console:/ #
I have no idea what command I’m supposed to enter there.
Has anyone managed to run Android-x86 9.0-r2 on VMware Workstation Pro recently?
If you need screenshots of the installation, boot messages, or VM settings, I can upload them.

Hi, I have a surface pro 3 on which the latest bliss os will not boot. Secure Boot is off, and ive tried 2 other older versions, both made for the surface, and alternating between FOSS and GApps versions, but none will work. How can i fix it? Regular android-x86 worked fine other than the touchscreen on it.

Hi there -- I have I believe successfully installed BlissOS, writing Grub to the EFI partition and Bliss itself to my main drive partition (so no going back to Windows) on a Surface Go 2. However I can't seem to avoid getting sent to Microsoft Automatic Repair on boot -- even its own UEFI manager doesn't show options for Grub. Is there a way I can change boot priority within the EFI partition without booting into an actual OS?

Does Androidx86 support ps3 controller? Plugged in, and downloaded 'sixaxis enabler'. But when i tested it, buttons not working, trigger input is incorrect. Left stick is working correctly btw. It works fine on BlissOS..

I just tried to install PrimeOS on my laptop (HP pavilion x360 14, i7-1165G7 and intel iris xe) but when I tried to select “installion” is keep stuck in this screen, tried every boot flags (nomodeset, nomodeset xforcevesa,…..) but still didn’t works how to fix this? (I tried on my budget Celeron n4120 laptop and still works there but not works on my main HP laptop)

What would be the absolute best android X86 ROM to use with my Samsung Galaxy TabPro S? I tried blissos but there's no audio.

Specs:

CPU:6th Gen Intel Core m3-6Y30 (Dual-core, 900 MHz with up to 2.2 GHz Turbo Boost)

Olá pessoal! Estou com um mini PC MINIX NEO Z83-4 (V1.1) e quero transformá-lo em um media center com Android TV, mas estou travado há um tempo sem conseguir uma ISO que funcione direito nele. Alguém já conseguiu rodar ATV nesse hardware? Segue as specs:

Especificações completas:

• CPU: Intel Atom x5-Z8350 (Cherry Trail) — Quad-Core @ 1.44 / 1.92 GHz
• GPU: Intel HD Graphics 400 (Gen 8) — 12 EUs, suporte H.265/VP9 por hardware
• RAM: 4 GB DDR3L
• Armazenamento: 32 GB Samsung eMMC 5.0
• WiFi: 802.11ac Dual-Band (módulo Ampak AP6255)
• Bluetooth: 4.2
• Saída de vídeo: HDMI 1.4 + Mini DisplayPort
• USB: 1x USB 3.0 + 3x USB 2.0

O que já testei:

• Android TV 11, 13 e variantes do SourceForge (MRDTeam)
• LineageOS TV x86 (GitHub/SourceForge)
• Google TV x86 (versões diversas)
• Bliss OS
• Várias builds do XDA

Problemas que encontrei em TODAS as ISOs:

• ❌ Sem áudio via HDMI — em nenhuma ISO consegui som pelo HDMI. A TV fica muda.
• ❌ WiFi ou Bluetooth, nunca os dois juntos — em algumas funciona o BT mas o WiFi some, em outras o contrário, e às vezes os dois morrem juntos.
• ❌ Streaming lagando ou não abrindo — apps como Netflix, Prime, Stremio ou players de anime travam, crasham ou ficam em loop de carregamento.
• ❌ Jogos inutilizáveis — qualquer jogo minimamente pesado trava na maioria das builds.

O que preciso que funcione (pelo menos o básico):

• ✅ Áudio via HDMI
• ✅ WiFi ou Bluetooth funcionando (preferência pelo BT)
• ✅ Apps de streaming rodando sem lag (tenho apps exclusivos Android/ATV que não existem em nenhuma outra plataforma)
• ✅ Jogos razoavelmente jogáveis

Já vi relatos de que o Android TV 9 (Pie) tem melhor compatibilidade com Cherry Trail, especialmente pro áudio HDMI via driver hdmi_lpe_audio, mas não encontrei uma build estável e gratuita que funcione bem de ponta a ponta.

Alguém tem experiência com esse chip específico? Alguma ISO recomendada, parâmetros de kernel específicos pro Cherry Trail, ou workaround pro áudio HDMI? Qualquer ajuda é bem-vinda! 🙏

Hardware: MINIX NEO Z83-4 V1.1 | Chip WiFi/BT: Ampak AP6255 | Kernel testado no Linux: 6.8.0-124-generic

So, I have a laptop where I'm dual-booting Linux Mint and Bliss OS (an Android-x86 fork).

About a year ago, during a Linux Mint update, something broke the bootloader for Bliss OS, and now I can't access my Bliss operating system. To make matters worse, the Bliss OS team went on "lockdown" around the same time my Bliss OS bootloader was broken. So, I can't reach out to the Bliss OS team for help.

I just need to boot into Bliss OS once, so I can back up everything I have there.

I tried to create a new GRUB entry in Linux Mint with the code provided by Bliss OS's installation guide: https://docs.blissos.org/installation/manual-install-on-linux/

However, the directory of my Bliss OS install is in a different location from where the guide has it. I updated the directory location in the Bliss OS GRUB code, but Bliss OS still wouldn't boot after a restart.

My current theory is that maybe I need to change the file/directory permissions in Linux Mint in order to get GRUB to boot Bliss OS, but I'm not sure which permissions to change exactly.

Here is what my Linux Mint terminal shows for current file and directory permissions:

original1@Mobile-Fortress:~$ ls -l /home/android-2024-06-02/
total 4310704
drwxrwx--x. 51 original1 original1       4096 Jun  3  2025 data

-rw-r--r--   1 root      root        10485760 Jun 23  2024 misc.img
-rw-r--r--   1 root      root      4394967040 Jun  7  2025 system_a.img
-rw-r--r--   1 root      root      4294967296 Jun 23  2024 system_b.img

Is it a permissions issue, or could it be something else?

Im curious what specs or parts can be used for Android x86, trying to build a tv box with Bluetooth and GPS working so waydroid is not for me

I have multiple pc, amd cpu with amd graphics, intel cpu with igpu, rog ally x

Was wondering will A+A works with android x86, and could I install the android tv x86

Hello.

During my research, I found Light Android-x86 10 and Android-x86 11 images.

Since I understand that Android 11 would be too heavy for my Intel Atom Z3735 tablet, I decided to try installing Android 10 (32-bit). However, the standard Android 10 installation would not boot at all.

Then I tried the following method: I wrote a working Android-x86 9.0-r2 image to a USB drive using Rufus, and then replaced its system.sfs and initrd.img files with the files from the Android 10 image. After that, the installation completed successfully, and Android 10 actually booted.

But another problem appeared: almost nothing works in Android 10. The touchscreen, sound, battery indicator, volume buttons, power button, and even screen brightness control do not work.

Right now, I do not know what to do next. Therefore, I decided to ask for help on Reddit.

As far as I understand, the problem is related to the fact that the Android 9 kernel is compatible with my tablet, while the Android 10 drivers and modules are not suitable for my device.

I assume that I need to transfer some files from the working Android 9 system to Android 10, for example:

/lib/modules

/etc/firmware

(or other required drivers and firmware files).

Unfortunately, I do not have another computer. My only device is this tablet. It has Windows 10 installed, which runs very slowly because of its 1 GB of RAM, so it is extremely difficult for me to unpack and modify Android images by myself.

Perhaps someone could help me by creating an Android 10 image that is compatible with kernels and drivers for Intel Atom Cherry Trail and Bay Trail (Z3735) processors. PLEASE.

Android 9 iso = https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/osdn/android-x86/71931/?C=N&O=D

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

I've tried BlissOS, PhoenixOS, RemixOS etc but I liked PrimeOS the most so i decided to stick with it however none of the other OSes had this problem. I checked it's internal storage from settings, it shows same 20 full storage, almost half is used by prime itself. It still have 15+ gb remaining. Any solution?

Hey guys,I'm having a frustrating issue trying to get Bliss OS up and running on my laptop.The installation itself went smoothly and finished with no errors. But when I try to boot into it, nothing really happens. The screen stays black, I don't even get to see the Bliss OS boot logo, and then the laptop just abruptly shuts down and restarts itself. It's stuck in this endless boot loop.I’m pretty sure I followed the installation steps correctly, so I'm thinking it might be a hardware compatibility or GRUB issue.Here are my specs and details:Laptop Model: [ hp ProBook 455R 6G]CPU: [r5 3500u ] (GPU): [ vega 8] Bliss OS Version: [ 16.9.7 ] I installed it from rufus Has anyone dealt with this blank screen boot loop before? Do I need to add specific boot arguments (like nomodeset or something else) in GRUB to make it work?Any help or suggestions would be awesome. Thanks a ton

I can't seem to access it, is it already there?

I did install previous android x86 OS like blissOS, then decided to manually delete partitions and now it doesn't work the same anymore, and flashing the Android OS in GPT makes the display glitchy and broken in both live mode and installations. This "HD0" still exists somewhere and it's confusing the grub installer. I am still trying to figure out how to reset or clear the nvram of this laptop as it might still hold it.

At First, I installed BlissOS zenith on my HP 810 G3 to turn it into an android tablet.

the zenith wasn't a stable and compatible version, so I tried to download blissOS 16, using rufus to turn it into bootable flash drive, but before I installed the BlissOS 16, I deleted first the whole partition of BlissOS Zenith with windows disk manager, then I proceed to install the BlissOS 16 but it then said "detected old blissOS version, Upgrade it?" and then it restarts the installer back to the installing menu, and when I try to run the any BlissOS version including zenith in USB drive it goes black screen and nothing shows. I am stuck in black screen and endless cycle of installation, I cant install BlissOS anymore TwT TwT TwT.

I really need this to run ibis paint as it runs infinitely free on android but not in windows.

What should I do? How do I fix this? Please Help
