With the release of Google’s Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update, more and more developers have shown their interest by bringing custom ROMs to many Android devices. One of the most popular ROMs is the CyanogenMod, and the HTC One X is getting another custom ROM based on CyanogenMod 10 (CM10).
The Domination ROM is a newcomer Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean custom ROM for the HTC One X and takes Jelly Bean to the next level.
The said ROM introduces many features that mashes up different ROMs, like AOKP, for its customization features. Since Domination ROM is entirely built from CM10, don’t expect it to
