Best Custom ROMs List For Nexus 6P 


Hello Friends, Today i am going to tell you Best Custom ROMs List For Nexus 6P . This is the Best Custom ROMs List For Nexus 6P . So you can check Best Custom ROMs List For Nexus 6P  Below Here. Nexus 6P is the latest offering by Google in the Nexus lineup. It is made by Huawei, a Chinese company. It boasts a 5.7″ Quad-HD AMOLED display, giving it a 518 ppi. Internals include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor clocked at 2Ghz, 3gigs of RAM, a 3450 mah battery. Though the Nexus lineup is known for not so good camera quality, but, this time, it is the other way round both the new Nexus devices, Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X, boasts a 12.3MP camera which is capable of taking great pictures in any condition.

The key feature of Nexus devices is their software, they run stock Android out of the box and are the first one’s to receive any updates pushed by Google. Stock Android is the choice or rather favorite of many Android device users including me. But then comes the power of custom ROMs which enable you to add some useful features to your smartphone experience and remove some unwanted ones. Nexus devices always receive good dev support and there are already lots of Custom ROMs available for Nexus 6P which was released only a few months back.

Before starting with the list, let’s start with the prerequisites or the necessities before installing  custom Rom on your device.

Prerequisites to Install a Custom ROM
All the Roms listed below are supported by Huawei Nexus 6P only.
Your device should have unlocked the bootloader.
You should have a custom Recovery like TWRP installed on your device (read article linked below).
Make sure to make a backup of our current ROM.

WARNING: Any damage to your phone, loss of data or any other problems faced by you while installing Custom ROMs on your device are your responsibility. The developer of the ROM or Droidviews should not be held responsible.

All the ROMs listed above are based on stock Android (AOSP), but I feel the list remains incomplete without the ROMs based on CyanogenMod. Well it’s still too early for CM13 and it’s not too stable for daily usage, that’s why it could not make it into the list. Hope to see them soon, as the CM13 nightlies for Nexus 6P have already been started to roll out. You may try out the official CM13 Nightlies for yourself, following this link.

Links to XDA threads are given above. Installation instruction and Download links are given in each XDA thread, if you still have any trouble while installing a ROM on your device, feel free to drop down a comment. We would be happy to help you.
