Bugs

While the developers haven’t listed out any bugs as such, I had faced a couple of issues. These included the device crashing when enabling Extreme Battery Saver Mode or when trying out WiFi Calling and the Advanced Reboot option missing from Power Menu, If you come across any such issues, then it is recommended to take a log and report it directly to the developers either at XDA or GitHub.

How to Install Bliss ROM (Android 12) on Pixel 4A

The flashing process will wipe off all the data from your device, so take a complete device backup beforehand. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.

STEP 1: Install Android SDK

First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide.

STEP 2: Download Bliss ROM for Pixel 4A

Next up, download the Bliss ROM for your Pixel 4A device from the below link. Once downloaded, extract it inside the platform-tools folder using WinRAR. [Credits: XDA Recognized Developer jackeagle]

STEP 3: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking

Next up, you will have to enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking on your device. The former will make your device recognizable by the PC in ADB mode. This will then allow you to boot your device to Fastboot Mode. On the other hand, OEM Unlocking is required to carry out the bootloader unlocking process.

So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking.

STEP 4: Unlock Bootloader on Pixel 4A

Next up, you will also have to unlock the device’s bootloader. Do keep in mind that doing so will wipe off all the data from your device and could nullify its warranty as well. So if that’s all well and good, then please refer to our detailed guide on How to Unlock Bootloader on Google Pixel 4A.
