Installing custom ROMs for your smartphone

Devices like the Nexus, Google Pixel come with pure stock Android while some other manufacrurers have their own modified OS. E.g. Xiaomi devices with MI UI and Lenovo devices with Vibe UI. These manufacturers have their own responsibilty for updates, bug fixes and lots more.

At the other side they include their bloatware in the device which sometimes proves unneccessary. Talking of updates manufacrurers mostly forget about the older models and dont roll out any update for them.

But if you have your own desired ROM, all you get at a snap.

Custom ROMs like CyanogenMod, Lineage OS, Ressurection Remix etc. have always been praised very much by reviewers not only because they are free of bloatwares but also for their extra functionality. Also some of them provide OTA updates for easy upgradation.

So go ahead. Find a custom ROM for your device now. But be careful while choosing one, because the ROM must match your device model or else there is a risk of bricking your phone which will be potentially unusable.

If you whisper, “Echo, play a lullaby,” for the infant who’s almost asleep in your arms, Echo will whisper back, “Here’s a station for lullabies from your Amazon Music library,” instead of screaming at  full startling volume. What's more? Whisper is not the only important feature that will come to Amazon Echo devices this year, we also have bunch of new ones. Guard : Guard will let you say, “Alexa, I’m leaving,” and the device will automatically acti...

Beware of Windows 10 Activation Tech Support Scams

Windows 10’s growth is on a roll, the flagship operating system is currently running on over 300 million PCs and devices worldwide, since its launch last year. With the accelerated growth, comes new opportunities, both good and bad. The latest example of the bad is a Product Activation Scam that some users are starting to see on their installations.
