If you like Samsung’s skin of Android, One UI, there’s a way to get One UI on any Android, using a custom ROM. It depends in your device if it has it or not, but if it has, you can flash Ancient OS 11 to get One UI on any Android. We will show you how to do it with this article.
If you rooted your Android device in past, you problably have came across something called as “Custom ROMs”. They are like alternative Android versions for your device unofficial way that manufacturer doesn’t allow as they want you to use their skin. Today, we will show you an alternative custom ROM that looks like exactly One UI, which you can get on any device as well easily.
One UI on any Android: Ancient OS Android 11
Yes, this is the ROM you’re problably looking for. This ROM is based on AOSP, while having dozens of customization options and meanwhile aiming to look like One UI as well, which is a way to get One UI on any Android on the look. The ROM itself is avaible for many devices officially or unofficially, but if the device doesn’t have it, well a generic system image version exist as well that is also avaible for open public to download. You need TWRP installed on your device along with unlocked bootloader. We already made a guide on how to insatll TWRP for your device, which you can follow to install it.
As you can see above, the ROM is just AOSP with a proper One UI look compared to any other ROM out of the box. Although they have an Android 12 version, for One UI look and customizations, Android 11 one is much more recommended compared to 12 one, as 12 one still falls a bit barebones compared to the 11 one. The ROM doesn’t exactly look like latest One UI style out of the box, more looks like One UI 2. But, with some small tweaks on it’s settings page, you can make it look like exactly the pictures shown above.
