​
What is a 'custom firmware'?
A custom firmware is a type of third-party software aimed to replace the current one installed on your device, typically installed by your manufacturer. Through custom firmware (also known as "custom ROMs"), you can:
Keep Yourself Updated
Custom firmware can keep your device updated to the latest available version of Android.
​
Experience More Features
Custom ROMs add features to your device that would have typically required a flagship, more expensive device.
​
Improve Performance
Custom ROMs typically have 'tweaked' the system, allowing you to run more demanding apps and games on your device.
​
Custom firmwares are developed by developers not associated by the device manufacturer. Make sure that you trust the firmware's developer before proceeding to install a custom firmware.
