We won’t be surprised at all if Xioami doesn’t releases the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update for Redmi 1S. Because, not only Redmi 1S is pretty old device now to receive an upgrade of Android version, it also lacks enough hardware — despite ticking the minimum requirements for Marshmallow. What’s so cool about Android is stuff like root, custom ROMs, TWRP recovery, etc. Thanks to custom ROMs, which can be installed using custom recovery like TWRP, you can install the Marshmallow update right away in a matter of minutes, or couple hours at max. Thanks to release of Redmi 1S CM13, and many other ROMs as you’ll see below, upgrading to Android 6.0 is easily possible — and it’s not bad either, you have some nicely working ROMs available. Let’s check out all ROMs available for upgrade to Marshmallow for your Redmi 1S.
