The new release can be easily installed through the ROM Manager. Users running the stable version on their devices should receive a notification when the update is available for them.

Those who haven’t installed the software before should know that it requires the rooting of the phone, which would result in voided warranty. They would be the only ones responsible in case anything goes wrong during the installation process.
