What is Stock ROM in Android ?
The operating system shipped with nexus one phone is called
Stock ROM.
What is Custom ROM ?
As you know Android is an open source OS. So, anyone can download the Android OS and
customize it for their personal use. The
customized Android OS is called as Custom ROM.
When I got my nexus one phone, I wanted to install the Custom
ROM. But at that time I do not know where to
start. When I searched the web, I was bombarded
with lot of information and it was too much for me to digest it. Finally after little struggle I have installed
CyanogenMod in my phone. Cyanogenmod is
one of the famous Custom ROM. One of the
best of feature of CyanagenMod is, it has FM radio in it. I dont know if any smart phones have FM radio
in it. FM radio will be useful to listen to radio stations while your travel
and you have no data plan in your mobile.
Following are the steps you need to follow to install a
Custom ROM in nexus one.
