We’re really excited to announce the release of Paranoid Android Quartz Alpha, based on Android 10.

On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with a beautiful wallpaper from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. For those who are unfamiliar, Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhances the overall user experience. This time around he have his wallpaper app Abstruct, were you will be able to find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers alongside a huge amount of amazing wallpapers.

The alpha builds include adjustments and improvements on top of the stock Android CAF base. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features.

Can you please post features of this initial build? On twitter there is no mention of it.

Finally, PA is also changing the way it names its releases in response to Google doing away with Android treat names. Going forward, new Paranoid Android releases will have names related to minerals, in this case, Quartz (Android Q). So the official name for the latest PA ROM is Paranoid Android Quartz.

I've just read this in an article on androidauthority because I was unclear on Quartz in the title.

I really don't know who thought it was a good idea, but I can tell you I was sick of treats and minerals don't sound promising at all.

Dirty flash a rom will break gapps. All Google apps or service crash. Happens on LOS or PA. Anyone has a workaround to fix the problem? It's hurt to clean flash all the time.

The workaround is called good backups.
The alternative is to stick with a single stable custom ROM. In this case that would mean a PIe based ROM, as none of the Q custom ROMs are at a stable state.
You could also stick with the current build of a Q ROM and not update it again until it goes stable, living with the current minor issues.
Going from ROM to ROM, expect trouble if you dirty flash.
Having the latest version of a ROM before it's considered stable, expect trouble occasionally with the new release if you dirty flash.
This is how it's always been.

bug report:

when playing audio over BT with native decoder(like retro music player) the audio stops playing when you get a notification sound over speaker like with the Blitzer(speedcam) app. Touch sounds (if enabled) and not native decoders like Spotify have no issues. Only a reboot fixes it

Blitzer(speedcam) App:

But no other real issues so far. Super fast ROM :D

also if someone is interested, I have made a script which debloats PA (or any other Q ROM) . it survives OTAs, means the apps will be automatically deleted after every OTA update (like magisk is reflashing itself after OTAs)

you can easily customize it. just edit zip/system/addon.d/33-barebones.sh with the folder names of apps you want to remove.
