Luckily, this weekend i&#8217;ve got a borrowed device and finally made it porting the color os from my GDS custom rom.<br \/>\nAs I already told on my article before, this ColorOs is heavy weight ROM, the framework and all the apps were heavily customized to bring the slick look on the results, thus resulting a big footprints on the size of the ROM. If you concern about the simplicity and small footprints, and already happy with your stock rom or my Xperia custom rom, just stick with it &#8230; this is another league of android OS. If you ask for analogy, it&#8217;s like installing Unity after years using xfce \ud83d\ude42 LOL. Push aside the enormous size, nevertheless, this is one of the most beautiful android rom I have ever seen. This ColorOS is a stock os from Oppo N1device, The look, the launcher, widget, animation and icons is very well touched and had a slick design. It also has a nice gesture interaction feature that makes your device more intuitive and easy to use.
