Custom ROM is a uniquely modified operating system developed and built by a third party vendor which is available for older or newer devices before the manufacturer update release.

Hexagon DSP is an image processor available on some SoCs (processors) and improves processing performance while using less battery. Leaving it ON usually improves speed, but doesn’t work on all phones.
