  • Collect the right ROM that is ported for your device
  • Before Installing new ROM, always keep a backup
  • Before installing rom do a wipe (Factory reset/Wipe Data/System/Cache)
  • After flashing rom if it wont boot keep patience and wait for 5 min.  If it still won't boot go to the Recovery Mode again and Restore your original ROM from backup
  • Do it at your own risk. I am not responsible for any damage
