  1. Providing a link to “How To Flash a Custom ROM on the Samsung” is perhaps a little misleading since it links to the generic loading a custom rom on an android device. There are currently no custom roms available for the Stellar, at least not on your website.

    1. The custom ROMs pages are regularly updated and whenever a new custom ROM comes out, we add it to the particular ROM page for that device.
