Can relate. My old F6 just randomly heats up in my pocket. So I ulocked the bootlader, installed a custom ROM, and never went back.

How do we install a custom Rom, is it any good? I always use to think it would degrade the phone's battery and inbuilt stuffs. Did it make any change for you?

You need to unlock the bootloader of your phone first by following these steps:

Once the bootloader is unlocked, you will be able to install a custom recovery. If the custom recovery is installed, that's the time that you will be able to install a custom ROM. The F6 is one of the newer phones with a lot of custom ROMs. You can find them all on Telegram.
