A ROM stands for read only memory and the ROMs we generally talk about an Android partition gets written to that partition. These ROMs decide the User Interface and the performance of your device along with a few other things like the custom kernel. The urge to flash custom roms often leads people to root their phone. And we expect that you have already rooted your Micromax A110 Canvas 2 and have installed clockworkmod recovery installed on it. Clockworkmod recovery (or TWRP recovery) is a must for flashing custom roms or any other third party zip.

• I have linked the xda thread of all the roms in their description. Visit that thread to learn about the latest updates and to download the latest rom version.
• The general method of flashing a custom rom on Micromax A110 is:
• Download the latest version of the rom you chose to try from the specified xda thread.
• Transfer the ROM's zip file to your Canvas 2's sd card.
• Power off your Micromax A110. When it vibrates, the phone has shut down completely.
• Press the Volume Down, Volume Up and Power button till your phone boots into cwm/twrp recovery (depends on which one you have installed).

• JMP ROM:
  
  JMP ROM was one of the very first roms released for Micromax A110 Canvas 2 and enjoys a good feedback from its users. I am sure you too won't regret downloading it.

  As Akshit Patel, the rom developer, puts it, this rom features a dark theme in most of its applications and  provides UI that is never seen before. To see if all that is true, you will have to try it out. The xda support thread for this rom can be found here.

  Known Bugs: Clicking Battery option in Settings leads to a Force Close. Also, the network signal stays even when it is not working.
• Stock Jelly Bean ROM:
  Wasn't it  a list of custom roms for Micromax A110? Yes, it was, but according to me Stock ROM is the most stable rom for any phone and given that no rom for Canvas 2 has been built from source and are just aggregation of tweaks, you can try all those tweaks on your stock ROM itself. If you want to revert to the stock jelly bean rom for Micromax A110, head here. As expected, it is totally bugless.

Update: All jelly based custom roms are reportedly having poor camera quality, if you want to solve it, read this.

Jelly Bean Based ROMs for Micromax A110:

Mobistel Cynus T2 Official Jelly Bean ROM:

• Overview: I was rather confused whether this rom should be included in a list of unofficial roms because this rom is official for Mobistel Cynus T2 users but unofficial for Micromax A110 users. It is a thumb rule that any rom not released by the device manufacturer themselves is said to be unofficial, but as Mobistel isn't the manufacturer of A110, and this post is targeted towards A110 users, therefore I decided to place it in here. The rom is quite stock like and you won't find most features you would generally look for in a custom rom. You will just get the Jelly Bean goodies that Google had in store for Android 4.1, nothing extra.
• Features:
  • As Cynus T2 comes with a 12 MP camera, this rom will increase the resolution of the output files your camera will produce when you flash it on your Micromax A110.
  • Internal SD card size is about 1.05 GB while space available for apps installation is also around 1 GB.
  • For detailed information about this ROM, read this.
