If you have been looking forward MultiROM for your Nexus 6, feel free to follow the guide below to install it on your phone.

Before we start with the guide on how to successfully install MultiROM on your Nexus 6, lets explain what this is and what it does. MultiROM is a mod for some of the most popular Android devices and as the name says, it allows you to install multiple ROMs at the same. If you are an avid Android user, you know how important installing ROMs is. Custom ROMs provide better performance and enhanced battery life. But finding the perfect ROM is a tough thing to do and you have to install many of them to find the ideal one.

Every time you flash a new ROM on your phone, you have to wipe data and cache which will delete all your installed applications. You need to download them one by one after installing the new ROM. With MultiROM, you can install a second ROM on your Nexus 6 without having to lose any data. You still keep the first ROM with all the applications alongside the second ROM.
