  • The data on the device will be completely erased if you successfully unlock the bootloader, so make sure to back up important data.

FAQ

What is Nusantara Project?

Is NusantaraROM safe to use?

Basically, ROMs sourced from the Android Open Source Project are safe. But security can be risky for advanced users if enabling root access and installing modules is not obvious.

What's the difference between the Vanilla and GApps versions?

Vanilla is an uninstalled version of Google Services. So need to install Google Play Services provider separately. While GApps is a version that has Google Play Services installed, and can be used immediately.

While LTS meaning of Long Term Support, which has the same meaning as eLTS but with a faster support period than eLTS. This update support only applies to devices based on android 11.

Is NusantaraROM only for gaming?

No. We make these works for everyone, just like our tagline, From Nusantara For Everyone. So the claims from some users are very good for performance, it's just the assessment of each user. Because there are no definite things that prove NusantaraROM is specifically for gaming.

Why is my device not available yet?

There are only two possibilities. First, your device does not support to open system sources via UBL. Second, we don't have a maintainer taking care of that device model yet.

Can I request features?

Maybe. Provided that the feature allows it to be implemented in future updates. However, we can't guarantee that it will be accepted. But it can be a suggestion if one day we want to implement.
