The Motorola Droid RAZR at Verizon won’t be getting the Android 7.0 Nougat update officially from Verizon, let alone the Android 7.1 update that is currently out as a developer preview for Nexus 5X, 6P and Pixel C. But thanks to the Android developer community over at xda, you can get Android 7.1 Nougat installed on your Droid RAZR with CM14.1.

CM14.1 is an Android 7.1 Nougat based AOSP ROM developed and maintained by CyanogenMod — the most popular custom ROM for Android devices.

This is an unofficial release of CM14.1 for Droid RAZR and might not be perfect for everyone. Check all details about the ROM below, along with downloads and installation instructions.
