Aftermarket tinkering on Android phones isn't as prominent as it once used to be. That's not to say you can't root your Android phone or install a custom ROM like LineageOS on it. You can still tinker and customize your phone to a large extent as long as you have the interest and the technical know-how. Most — if not all — aftermarket tinkering requires you to connect your Android smartphone to a computer using a USB cable, so you can use tools like the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to interact with the device.

Regularly updating your GPU's drivers is one of the best things you can do to maintain your PC. From improving stability to enhancing performance and getting rid of bugs, it is also one of the best things you can do to maintain your PC. However, there are rare cases when you might want to uninstall the drivers. For example, you may have corrupt drivers that could result in your GPU not sending any output to your monitor. It’s also possible to run into compatibility issues if you upgrade to a new graphics card without uninstalling the older GPU drivers.

If you're anything like me, you like to keep your laptop and gaming PC running at its best. Updating the drivers for the hardware components is undeniably an easy way to optimize your computer.

Smartphone-oriented websites tend to focus only on the latest devices, but a large chunk of users choose not to upgrade their phones for one reason or another. Barring hardware failure, many of these devices may still have years of use ahead of them because, to their owners, they still work just fine. While custom ROMs can keep legacy smartphones alive for ages, it can be a nightmare for the modders to keep things like the camera and graphics drivers up to date without official manufacturer support.
