JRummy Releases ROM Installer To The Play Store, It's Like ROM Manager On Steroids

Cameron Summerson

If you're a frequent ROM flasher, then you already know the tools of the trade – ROM Manager, ClockworkMod Recovery, TWRP, Goo Manager, etc. – but now it's time to add another to the list: ROM Installer from JRummy. If you're not familiar with Rummy, he's been putting out top-notch apps for root users since the OG Droid days. He's responsible for killer tools like ROM Toolbox and Root Browser, among many others.

But I digress – let's talk about ROM Installer. Basically, this is an easy way to find and install new ROMs, much like ROM Manager. According to the Play Store listing, "ROM Installer has the most ROMs available in any app you will find on the Google Play Store," so of course you'll find all the big names there: CyanogenMod, AOKP, Paranoid Android, MIUI, Carbon, and many others – perhaps some you've never even heard of.
