Root methods vary depending on the mobiles, and you can refer to our Root Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G regarding this method. After root, you can disable/remove the bloatware apps, and it will work better than the ADB Method.

Custom ROMs are great. If you are a regular user, you can use the ADB method or the Root method. But, You should know whether you need this or not. If you already use Stock Android and have limited hardware specs, you won’t expect much improvement. But, When you have a Custom skin OS and reasonable specs, you can experience much growth. Always use official Custom ROMs. Un-Official versions may have bugs. Refer- Best Pie Custom ROMs.

Yes. We do all the possible ways, but if you still face the issues, it is time to upgrade your mobile. Because based on your usage, the mobile specs can’t give you what you want. Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G mobiles can survive for a few years. But it did not have Flagship level specs and power. If you have a Massive audience of Flagship mobiles like Nexus and Pixel phones, you will get updates from Developers from the Custom ROM. You don’t have to buy $1000 flagship phones. Stock Android phones and 5G phones are available for $300. Purchase the latest version to use that mobile with proper support for 3 Years.
