[Linux User]

Android AOSP 7.0 Nougat ROM for Yureka is now available through an unofficial AOSP ROM update and this is a guide which explains how to update Yureka to Android Nougat ROM. Since the Android Nougat Source code release, till now we have many Android Nougat ROMs available for various devices and also we have many CyanogenMod 14 ROMs and here is the Yureka CM14 NOUGAT ROM available too, probably the first CyanogenMod 14 Nougat ROM for Yureka available out there. And now this time the Nougat ROM (build number: NRD90M) has arrived to Yureka (codename: tomato) which is brought to you by developer HridayHS. Yureka Users must be thankful to the developers for their priceless efforts and lightning fast development.

DISCLAIMER:
I DON’T KNOW THE STATUS OF THIS ROM YET. THIS COULD BE AN INITIAL ALPHA ROM WHICH MAY NOT BOOT AT ALL OR IF AT ALL IT BOOTS THEN IT MAY NOT BE USABLE AS A DAILY DRIVER. I JUST FOUND THE ROM AND POSTED HERE. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. ALSO MAKE SURE TO TAKE NANDROID BACKUP OF YOUR CURRENT ROM.

Installing a custom ROM on a the Yureka requires the bootloader to be unlocked, which may VOID your warranty and may delete all your data. Before proceeding further you may consider backup all data on the phone. You are the only person doing changes to your phone and I cannot be held responsible for the mistakes done by you.
