UNOFFICIAL VERSION - BETA
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.

Requirements

WoW! i didn't see this coming! thanks! hope to try it in the next days

---

Finally my favorite rom. Props for the good work.

My phone is K30 Pro, running 12.0.9 cn. With all these weird rom requirements and smartphone varient (f2 pro/k30 pro. although these are the same thing.), I am now very confused about flashing. Can you confirm me that will it be working if I flash it to my K30 Pro over 12.0.9 cn?

Pretty sure it will not work flashing over 12.0.9 at this point.
All the custom roms for the device right now use a pre built vendor partition and pre built kernel from the specified miui rom they name.
If you use a different one and flash over it, stuff will be broken. This will likely change as roms evolve and mature.
What likely will work but is untested, is using the eea equivalent 12.0.3 but even that is not confirmed right now.

Is it really recommended to use mauronofrio's TWRP? Based on experience, the latest Chinese one is more stable.

---

This is big and wonderful news. Thanks a lot

I use it only to flash the rom and don't actually flash twrp onto the device.
And definitely do test any other twrp if you like and if that works please let us know.

That depends on your phone.The global and eea modele have 12.0.3 available to them.
If you are actually using the Chinese version of the phone that was meant for the chinese market (your CN firmware seems to indicate that) you probably shouldn't install any other miui rom on it than CN. But again, this is not something I am knowledgeable about and would recommend you search for more information elsewhere.

I installed this rom, I made a mistake the first time. Didn't know you had to be on stock recovery, I only saw that part of the instructions in the readme file that was with the rom file. I tried to install from recovery and I had to flash back to stock with miflash.
Some feedback - only slow charging ATM, I was transferring some files and it seems to drop off MTP and just started charging the device. No rcs messaging in google messages? 5g is working and volte! Otherwise nice job!
Note: on the main charger it seems to be charging pretty fast even though it says charging slowly.

---

Just want to say that I manage to flash this with LR team TWRP.
Awesome ROM, so smooth.. the biggest issue is the fingerprint not accurate , it takes 3 to 4 times to get detected if at all.
Also magisk is not working for me using stable, I'll try canary maybe. For first launch this is great, will be waiting for your update, cheers.

---

First of all, thanks for the work, the installation went smoothly, everything working perfectly and without errors. Great job.

---

So how's the setup

You're right about the fod not being all that great, that's going to be worked on.
As to Magisk, 20.4 works here with Magisk Hide Props and a switch to basic authentication.
With that setup the phone is used here with google pay and no issues at all.

The charging works here, both slow and rapid charging are indicated properly. Maybe check with the next release since mine is always a little bit newer than the one posted.
As to RCS, I think we may have talked about this earlier on TG. RCS seems to work here just fine so I don't really know what the issue is with that right now. Maybe if you have the chance test one of the other new AOSP ROM's for the device too, to see if it's any different with those.

Ah ok, will try magisk hide props.
Also, I turned on the option to hold power button to turn of flashlight but not working for me? I'm starting to think this and FOD issue is because I didn't use miflash to flash 12.0.3 ROM first....
Btw thanks for all your work, the ROM is amazingly smooth.

FYI - Since I have unlocked the phone a lot I have found I have been way more accurate with FOD. It seems like the area is a little smaller to press than what it was on MIUI - my two cents lol.
I'm charging the phone again now and it says charging slowly, but it seems to be charging fast.
I will test out another base, I know someone else who's on Evolution X - same country and carrier. Same issue as me and rcs worked fine for both of us on MIUI.

Rcs has worked on every rom for me after updating the messages app. Sometimes if that doesn't help it'll randomly start working on its own somehow after a few mins
