ROMs

AlThough rooting is not required for flashing new ROMs, many apps ask for you to root your device so that the work you do is more easier.

CyanogenMod is a very famous Rom that majority of the people put on their devices. It is easy to install it using the ROM Manager application. First you have to do is, install the Clockwork recovery. After that run a backup before you will flash any Roms.

Make sure to check out “From Where can I able to seek stock or custom ROMs for my device” or the XDA forums that will work for the other custom Roms. We know Most devices have a specific or more accurate “Android Development” sub-forum which is the place they are posting about the ROMs. 

You had better always do a nandroid backup before you install any Rom or mod for your device. It will reduce the risk you will have to take. Furthermore You may also need to clear all the data and cache memory from your device before installing or upgrading a ROM.
