Do remember seeing the current bugs and instability i wont suggest anyone to try this GSI for now, If you wish to use it, flash it at your own risk and I or anyone else linked to this project will not be held responsible if anything is going wrong with your device. So flash it entirely at your own risk and you cant blame anyone of us later on

I am on the CAF based, so only install GSI Q? Will the Orange Fox TWRP works? I used it to get Pie PE

I has error 20 when installing Pie Gapps pico (something 9.0 vs 7.1.2). Then it start to android Q (voila) but show error: Android System: There's an internal problem with your device. Cannot access internal storage. Try to repeat procedures

Finally I made it. Repeat from installing Gapps. Now I have Q. Missing Pixel Expeience interface. Hope to get it soon

The Q beta is smooth. But as Shreejoy Dash mentioned, the camera is not working, even mod camera apks. Network signal bar is weak vs Pie PE. And the Pixel Experience UI is not integrated so I am missing it. Have to use Pixel launcher. No pill home button, only three classic 3 buttons. Dark mode is show but not working. Magisk is maybe not available for Q.
Bluetooth works. Light sensor is not so the automatic brightness is not working.

The reason is its basically not Q at exact its AOSP master its means the base is completely that which you will see in Q but most of the UI elements are same as old
Its better to wait for Q developer preview to come out once its out Erfan will port it out for us

I am enjoying Q on the cheapo Redmi 5. Fingerprint reader is lightning fast. But trusted face option for face unlock could not be found. Especially root is not available. I read on Twitter that John Wu has rooted Q, but all available Magisk v18.2 are failed to root

The alpha Q is missing some important components: mobile hot-spot, VOLTE and digital well-being. The Digital Wellbeing is available on Google Playstore, but it is not show in app draw. Other Q alpha show link to enable it in setting/privacy but this GSI on my Rosy doesn't have this link. This rom is also not include the great DIRAC sound which available in Pixel Experience Pie CAF. So I have to use Dolby Digital V6.0 magisk module to boost sound. The DTS magisk modules on xda both lead to bootloop.

Basically in proper words its not even Q its base is Q but most of theming is based on P and they removed some things from this as they may remove it or modify it in future with Q
