Updated: Google released the official build of Android 10 for the Google Pixel series devices. The latest official Android 10 GSI builds (generic system images) are now available for download officially from Google servers. Earlier, we posted about the Android Q GSI beta builds available for downloads directly from Google’s servers. Here are the Android 10 GSI builds. We also have the custom Android 10 GSI by Erfan Abdi for One UI, Oxygen OS, MIUI, Zen UI, Flyme OS, Hydrogen OS, NubiaUI, Moto, Candy ROM, Xpieria, Pixel, ZUI, and more.

Original: Android Q is going to be the next version of the most popular mobile operating system in the world. This is the tenth iterations of Android OS and it comes packed with many new features. These features include a native system wide dark mode or night mode, advanced or complete control over Android permissions using permission usage section, possible accent and font options, and time to read feature. So download Android Q GSI right now!

With the new permissions usage section under Privacy tab in settings app, you can control all the permissions that certain apps are using. Moreover, you can monitor the permission used by a certain app in real time right at the status bar. The dark mode can be activated from the Developer Options and can also trigger some apps to get native dark mode feature. Most importantly, there is a new option in the Accessibility settings called Time to read where you can control the time of heads up notifications that appear on the screen.

There is also a new Desktop mode under Developer Settings that we may see more about once the Android beta program kicks in. Maybe something like Samsung Dex? Android Q may also support accent colors or fonts similar to Oxygen OS, and support for native face unlock feature for all.

The Android Q beta program that will start likely in mid-March and stable builds will be available in 2019 itself. Moreover, here we have the early builds of the Android Q GSI (Generic System Image) even before the Android 10 Developer Preview builds. You can flash the GSI images onto your Project Treble supported Android phones.
