crDroid is one of the longest-running custom ROMs for Android. It’s built on LineageOS and adds a lot of extra customization on top, so you get a clean, Pixel-style phone that you can tweak far more than stock Android allows. The current version is crDroid 13, based on Android 17. It started rolling out on October 11, 2026, and the older crDroid 12 (Android 16) is still being updated for many phones that haven’t moved over yet.
This page lists every phone with an official crDroid 13 or crDroid 12 build, with download links, plus a few unofficial crDroid 13 builds for phones that aren’t on the official list. The list is up to date as of October 29, 2026.

What is crDroid?
crDroid started in 2012 as a ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S III, and it has followed every major Android release since. Today it uses LineageOS as its base, so it inherits LineageOS’s device support and security patches, and then adds its own settings on top. Official builds come with OTA updates, so once you’ve installed crDroid you can update from the phone itself instead of flashing every new release by hand.
crDroid features
- A large crDroid settings menu for the status bar, quick settings, lock screen, navigation and buttons
- Theming options, including custom fonts. Recent builds let you add your own font file from crDroid settings, under UI and then Font style.
- Support for Pixel live wallpapers that you can download from inside the ROM
- A Pixel-style weather pill widget powered by OmniJaws weather, along with customizable height and color for the Pulse music visualizer
- An option to turn off the confirmation dialog when you toggle mobile data from quick settings
- Built-in OTA updates on all official builds
crDroid 13 (Android 17) official supported devices
63 devices have an official crDroid 13 build so far. Most of them are on monthly builds, and a handful get weekly updates. More phones will join as their maintainers finish moving from crDroid 12, so if your phone is only in the crDroid 12 list below, check back later.
Each download link opens that device’s official crDroid folder on SourceForge, where you’ll find the ROM zip and, for most devices, the matching recovery image. Read the device’s install notes before you flash, because some phones need a particular stock firmware first.

crDroid 13 unofficial builds
Independent developers have also built crDroid 13 for a few phones that don’t have official support. The crDroid team doesn’t check these builds, so read the release notes and known issues first.
How to install crDroid
The exact steps differ from phone to phone, so treat this as an overview and follow your device’s own instructions where they differ.
- Back up your photos, contacts and anything else you want to keep. A clean install wipes the phone.
- Unlock the bootloader. How you do this depends on the brand, and some brands make you wait or request permission first.
- Download the crDroid zip and the recovery image for your exact codename from the table above. If you want Google apps, get a Gapps package for the same Android version (Android 17 for crDroid 13).
- Install the latest Android SDK Platform Tools on your computer, boot the phone into Fastboot mode and flash the crDroid recovery.
- Boot into recovery and run a factory reset (format data).
- Choose Apply update, then Apply from ADB, and sideload the ROM with
adb sideload followed by the zip’s file name. Sideload Gapps straight after if you’re using them.
- Reboot. The first boot can take a few minutes.
If you’re already on crDroid 12, you may be able to move to crDroid 13 without wiping your data. Check the upgrade notes in your device’s forum thread first, and remember that Android 16 Gapps won’t work on crDroid 13.
Please note that GetDroidTips cannot be held responsible for any damages, either internal or external, that may occur to your device as a result of following this guide. We advise you to proceed only if you have a good understanding of what you are doing and are confident in your ability to follow the instructions correctly. Your caution and care are appreciated.
Frequently asked questions
Is crDroid 13 stable?
Official crDroid 13 builds are tagged as stable releases. That said, a lot of devices only got their first Android 17 build in October 2026, so if you rely on your phone every day, you could stay on crDroid 12 for a few weeks while early bugs get fixed.
Does crDroid include Google apps?
Most builds don’t, so you’ll need to flash a Gapps package yourself if you want the Play Store. Your device’s forum thread says which Gapps package works with it.
My phone isn’t listed. What can I do?
Look for an unofficial build on XDA Forums, or try LineageOS, which crDroid is built on and which supports more phones. You’ll find links to our LineageOS device lists at the top of this page.
