Best Android ROMs for Huawei Nexus 6P
Google’s Nexus line up has the purest form of Android OS. But, not every one needs the purest form. There are 3rd party ROMs that offer lot more while retaining the vanilla Android experience. Some of these turn out to be faster than the stock/factory ROM. Here is a list of five third party ROMs that not only offer plain Android experience but come with options to heavily customize the experience. Before you think of installing these, you need to know how to root your Nexus and how to install a 3rd party ROM. Do note that these modifications will void the warranty on your phone and do not try any of these when your phone is on low battery or on a computer that is not connected to a UPS. Neither GadgetDetail nor the author can be held responsible if you end up with a bricked phone while performing these steps. Try this at your own risk.
