- Custom recovery ZIP (TWRP) or patched stock recovery image for your device.
- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Keeping ROMs secure and updated
- Use ROMs from reputable developers and active threads (maintainers with regular updates).
- Read changelogs and user reports before upgrading.
- Avoid unofficial “random” builds without user feedback or source code availability.
- Check permissions and audits for bundled apps — uninstall or disable anything suspicious.

Even if you somehow unlocked the phone, the Y1S has only 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage (eMMC 5.1). Funtouch OS is heavy, but custom ROMs like LineageOS (lightweight) would actually run better. The irony: The phone is perfect for a debloated custom ROM, yet Vivo's ecosystem makes it impossible. is a budget-oriented smartphone powered by the MediaTek
