One of the most compelling features of the Paranoid Android ROM is the the Pie Control. Now a similar feature has been added to CyanogenMod 10.1, and is available in the most recent nightly edition dated March 27th. For anyone unfamiliar, the pie controls replace the existing onscreen navigation controls (Back, Home, Recent Apps). To access the Pie, you swipe from the edge of the display, a... »
If you are a CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly build user, we’d like to point out an awesome new addition that can be found in the latest builds, from March 11th on forward. If you’re rocking a device that uses the on-screen navigation bar (like the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7, or Nexus 4, for instance), this applies directly to you. You know that awesome little swipe on the home key that brings up G... »
Heads up, crackflashers! Those of you who love CyanogenMod as much as we do here at OMG!Droid will be happy to learn that the team has released the second milestone in its 10.1 branch, bringing the latest and greatest Android 4.2.2 to a number of devices (21 in total, not counting various carrier variants). Here’s a note from the CM team: “With this release, we’d like to remind you all... »
As is usually the case, the CyanogenMod team has been hard at work to bring the latest and greatest features to the masses. As of yesterday, a three-month effort to bring HDR Camera mode functionality to the project finally came to an end thanks to the blood, sweat, and tears of CM team member, Guillaume Lesniak. Similar to the HDR functions found on the Nexus 4, Cyanogenmod’s rendition of H... »
CyanogenMod, the largest and most popular AOSP-based custom ROM project on the planet, rang in 2o13 with the introduction of its brand-spankin’ new wiki page. Drew Suarez, one half of the wiki development team, took to Google+ to share the news. Here’s what he had to say: I am very pleased to announce the new CyanogenMod Wiki page to the public today. Fattire and myself spent many hour... »
![[Lulz] Verizon gets crap on Twitter for being dev unfriendly, gets all butt-hurt](http://www.omgdroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/crybaby-204x200.jpg)
It’s no surprise to anyone that Verizon isn’t the most developer friendly carrier out there, with numerous instances of them ridiculously locking down bootloaders as tightly as possible. As a result, there have been “developer edition” devices that have rolled out where you’re paying full retail no-contract pricing just to get a phone you can get full access to, whic... »
Well this is certainly not something I expected to see today. I normally check the CyanogeMod and AOKP sites like twice a week just to check the news there, and on my run just a few moments ago was greeted with this nice little warning by Google on aokp.co/. Seems this occurred a day or so ago and I totally missed it. AOKP page on Google+ does confirm their site was compromi... »
Well this is certainly not something I ever expected to be posting, EVER. We all know the CyanogenMod name, and lots of people use their ROMs. It turns out the cyanogenmod.com domain itself was originally donated back sometime in 2009. Nothing abnormal there by any means. Now it seems the domain owner has decided to impersonate CM creator Steve Kondik to score himself some referral deals with t... »
A quick public service announcement for those of our readers who’re running CyanogenMod on any of their devices: If you haven’t already installed the latest nightly build, you might want to do so in the near future. This evening, we caught wind of a controversial line of code found in the project by CM developer, Gabriel Castro. The line in question causes the device’s unlock pat... »
