I come with a background of operating and exploring Android devices since the last 6 years. I dwell on technology and Android to be precise. Its open-source nature and the enormous scope for possibilities have intrigued me ever since I operated my first Android device. All this ultimately led me to start "TheCustomDroid". Apart from that, I spend most of my time mountain biking and gaming on my Xbox.
