## Custom ROMs
Besites the stock-firmware of vendors there are also custom ROMs.
These are alternative firmware variants made by third party providers.
A well known custom ROM is [LineageOS](/wiki/android/lineageos.md).
It is possible that some custom ROMs require the user to
[unlock the bootloader](#unlocking-the-bootloader) before the installation can happen.
## Unlocking the Bootloader
Unlocking the bootloader can be a bit challenging for some vendors especially.
For [smartphones and tablets](/wiki/smart_devices.md#smartphones-and-tablet-computers) made by
Xiaomi there are some steps that have to be done to unlock the bootloader.
This section is based on an
[article about unlocking the bootloader](https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245) on Xiaomi
Community aswell as another
[article on specifics for HyperOS](https://xiaomiui.net/how-unlock-bootloader-xiaomi-hyperos-53493/).
First the user has to apply to unlock the bootloader.
For this open the Xiaomi Community app, navigate to the "Settings" and select "Change region".
Select the region "Global".
A new option called "Unlock bootloader" now appears in the settings.
Select "Unlock bootloader" and "Apply for unlocking".
It may be possible that a specified time has to be waited for the application process to happen.
Next go to the phones settings.
Navigate to "About Phone" and "MIUI Version", repeatedly tap on "MIUI version" to get into
developer mode if the phone is not already in developer mode.
Navigate to "Additional settings" and "Developer options".
Enable "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging".
Now add your Xiaomi account to your device.
To do so navigate to "Mi Unlock status" and agree then "Add account and device".
Shutdown your phone and boot into "Fastboot" by holding down the volume down button and the power
button.
Then connect it to a computer via USB.
The following steps have to take place on a [Windows](/wiki/windows.md) system or an emulation or
virtualization of it.
Download and start "Mi Unlock" - it is available on the
[article mentioned prior in this section](https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245).
Follow the steps of the software, select "Unlock" and confirm it multiple times.
It is possible that now 72 hours have to pass for the unlocking process to continue.
If that is the case wait the specified amount of time and repeat the last step.
Make sure to not apply for unlocking again and do not add your account to your phone again as this
will reset the timer.
