To be honest, I don't need it and that's why it's not a big deal, but I can't find the digital wellbeing app anymore. There is no longer an icon in the "settings" overview. Only on my device?

No, I can't get it to show up either. You can download it on the play store, but it never shows up in settings for me.

As you said though, i don't need it, so I haven't worried about it much. The rom is absolutely fantastical otherwise.

does safetynet pass CTS profiles? I read through the forum but didnt see anything mentioned so apologies in advance if it was mentioned and I missed it. I would just try it myself if I didnt just rebuild my entire OS lastnight with AOSiP so my Whatsapp (used to communicate with son overseas doing doctors without borders) has been activated to many times. I cant risk switching over to test ABC and have it fail the safetynet, then have to swap back and activate Whatsapp. It may make me wait the day or so because of to many attempts (it happens alot more than you would think it would, especially for flashaholics like me). I must have Whatsapp working or I cant talk to him (which is dangerous if he needs me and I am unable to use Whatsapp until the next day).

*** EDIT ***
disregard! It passes SAFETYNET,, awesome, great 10 ROM!

Flashaholics always takes the plunge despite the known pain. Didn't know WhatsApp has any restriction on number of activations. Amazon music does for example. Can be a real pain with these apps.
I'll try AOSiP with Feb release. For now, in love with ABC.'s stability.

LOL good points :) and its so true, I am like a true addict when it comes to my droids. I have been building OS's and modding since the early days of Android (ICS). I am a long time developer and senior sys architect so technology is in my blood, I have been in IT since the early days of DOS and made it my career and have been since the late 80's. I LOVE IT, so Android especially since it goes along with Linux so well its second nature to me.

I did take the plunge and I have to admit, this is probably the most stable, best running 10 ROM right now available. I am not taking away from PD's 10, thats good too with more options, but for 10 ROMs, ABC is by far the most stable, I feel its a better version of Google's OS. Its like ABC somehow made Google's version better. Thats I felt when I was on ABC, but I got sick of 10 and rolled back to 9 (Havoc). Havoc has just everything I need, is stable, is 9, and works so its my true dailydriver but I do come back to ABC and this ROM every so often to test the latest releases. PD is cool too but I am not a big Android 10 fan so for now, I am mainly running 9 ROMs.

I will try to drive home the point I am making to everyone coming to this forum, ABC ROM is the most stable and best running 10 OS available, I found it more stable than Googles official firmware! Well done ABC team and the OP for making this available for us! Android 10 is just not for me, I dont like some of the new changes, and I find it far less stable than 9's later revisions.

Help Flashing

I'm a little rusty here but want to try this ROM. I'm on stock/rooted Android 10 (Mar) but the latest TWRP (yes I know it limitations with 10, which is the reason I usually don't flash other that stock) 3.3.0.0 will not mount system/vendor. Is the proper procedure to flash the ROM in TWRP first then back out to fastboot and flash vendor/bootloader/radio? Thanks for your help

The April factory image is not out so the latest build is based on the March image. Go to twrp, factory reset, flash rom and twrp installer and reboot to system. If you want magisk and another kernel, then reboot to recovery, flash kernel and magisk and you are good to go.

Perfect, thanks jlokos!! I have it installed and glad I did. I got really excited to see the face unlock option during setup as this is what kept drawing me back to Pie ROMS. I don't can't find it in settings, did I get excited for nothing :) TIA
