One of the most popular reasons to install a custom ROM on the Android operating system is to remove bloatware. It’s common for our phone carrier networks to sell us a device that comes with their own carrier applications for texting, watching videos, voicemail, and so on. Furthermore, anyone buying an unlocked device can also get additional applications that let people play with apps for a stylus pen and other things that take up a good deal of memory space but are rarely ever used.
A custom ROM is a great way to remove bloatware the easy way — a way in which you don’t really have to do anything but flash the new ROM itself. It seems like a big step to take but you can rest easy in the fact that these expert developers have already chosen which apps can be removed so you don’t have to.
