Caution! This Is What Will Happen To Your Android If You Do A Wrong Update, See How To Undo

Some of you by now might have known what will happen to your android device if you go ahead to update it with an update meant for another android device or simply if you flash a wrong ROM into it.

But if you are yet to know, then this is the right place to see what will happen to your android device when being faced with the above mentioned situation.

If you do that, one thing is certain; you will end up hard bricking your android, period!

But sometimes, we understand that there are reasons why some of you will end up carrying out a wrong update to your android.

Apart from trial or testing out other ROM meant for other android devices, one of the major reasons why people flash wrong ROM into an android is because of having two or more extremely identical devices facing them.

Yes, we said extremely identical but we don’t mean that they the same and can be interchanged.

For example, we have a case of Infinix Hot Note and Infinix Hot Note Pro Devices; when you look at these two devices, in fact, you will never know that slight differences exist in them because even their models are the same except when you now go into detailed examination of their hardware components.

Even more confusing is that there are even two different Infinix Hot Note Pro devices, and both bear the same name and model but the only single difference is that one came with 16GB ROM and the other one came with 32GB ROM.

And this sort of striking resemblance is not only applicable to Infinix devices, you can as well come across such in other devices like Samsung, i.e. when you talk about Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo and you can also see it on other android brands.

Now, as long as there is a slight variation in either software or hardware components in two identical devices, those two devices will have different and unique stock ROM and you cannot interchange them; doing so will simply result to damaging your device or bricking as preferred in Android world.
