We are very excited to announce the release of Paranoid Android Quartz, 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. 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 enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app, included in our builds.

Our builds are based on the Code Aurora Forum Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

Note: Custom kernels are NOT officially supported!

Hi Dev, my phone stuck on the bootloop at the beginning. Solved by re flashing again and again. However I cannot find the option to change back button position from right to left. Do I miss something?

I'm going to flash this either way, but i was wondering how is the battery life compared to stock?
Cause on LOS17.1 "unofficial" i could get easily up to 10-12 hours sot, on the official port it was the same as stock 7-8 hours sot.
I'm wondering if it's any better or just the same.
Great work btw ^_^

After flashing the rom the battery life is good enough, it is very smooth and stable, but my only "problem" is the lack of universal equalizer settings and the lack of screen recording *with* system audio. (btw any advice on what to do about my issues would be helpful, thanks in advance :D ). Other than that, this is an amazing rom !!! :good:

Just wanted to report back and show my appreciation

To put it simply, it just works!
Battery is good, ROM is smooth.
Didn't found any bugs yet.
Magisk and g cam works perfectly.

Hello everyone, I honestly can't install this rom. I currently have miui.eu, so I formatted the phone and installed the global miui 11.3, and only then I installed this rom, but the phone is always doing a bootloop. Someone with installation tutorial?
