Personally, I think there is no better form of android compared to stock android. Stock android is android in its purest form exactly the way google made it without any 'noticeable' additions just as seen on the infinix hot 2.
Android is a free open-source software and as such allows phone manufacturers to make adjustments to their devices and this results in custom UI which are seen in a lot devices today such as TouchWiz for Samsung devices, XUI for infinix, Sony Xperia's UI and many others.
For some people, these forms of android may seem like a lesser version of android.
If your android device runs a custom OS and you would like to experience a purer version, follow the steps below;
For our experiment, I'll be using the infinix hot note and making changes to it to make it appear stock.
The Hot note started out looking like this.
This is the most important part of the custom-stock change.
For this, head on to google playstore and install google now launcher. This changes your home screen and app drawer which are the main part of the switch.
When you first install the app, you'll be asked if you want to make the app your default launcher.
Select Google now and choose Always and your phone should now look like stock android.
Most times, android makers include their own camera app so if you would also like to get the stock android camera for your device click here to install it from google playstore. However, you can't replace your default camera with google camera .
You can also head to playstore and install Google dailer app and Google Contacts app.
This isn't really necessary but if you really want to nail the stock Android look I suggest you do it.
The only problem here is that the updated versions of these app only work on Android phones running Android Marshmallow which are very rare. However, if you run android Marshmallow on your device, I really suggest you get these apps.
The last thing that's left of your stock android transformation is WALLPAPERS!!!
For that, there are a couple of Marshmallow wallpapers click here to download. It's a zipped file so you have to unzip it with an application like Winzip
After all tweaking, our hot note ended up looking like this.
