Custom is a modified firmware of a smartphone. It differs from the official one in the innovations that can be added by one person or a group of users.
Custom firmwares is needed in the following cases:
- expanding the functionality of the system;
- getting rid of the standard applications that are difficult to remove in the case of the stock firmware;
- increase the speed of the device;
- extending the autonomous operation of the device;
- access to root-right without additional user actions.
Installing unofficial firmwares is worth remembering about the possibility of bugs. This kind of software is not always well thought out by the developers, and it may cause the phone’s performance to fail right after the installation. Therefore it’s better to download custom firmware to your device only from verified sites and consider the feedback from other users.
