sfcrazy writes "CyanogenMod team has announced the release of version 10.2 M1, just after the release of Android 4.4 aka Kit Kat. In a post the team says, "With all the Android 4.4 hype, we haven't forgotten about CM 10.2. Tonight the buildbots will focus their efforts on building and shipping out CyanogenMod 10.2 M1. Builds are already hitting the servers (please be patient, this will take a while). We are targeting over 70 devices for this initial M-release.""

  1. ELi5: CyanogenMod by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'm sure CyanogenMod is awesome, but the CyanogenMod homepage doesn't do a good enough job of explaining WTF it is, and why anyone would want it. I'm thorougly unimpressed by "it has themes" and "it has a DSP equalizer" and "it has quick settings". There are no obvious videos showing how it works, so please help me understand why anyone would use it.

    Can anyone here please ELI5 (explain like I'm five) what it is and why someone would want to use it?

  2. What features did they remove this time? by citizenr · · Score: 0, Troll

    Every release since they announced selling out have been gutted (saving to SD card, root, camera app, etc). They are removing things that made Cyanogenmod popular just so they can please potential Carrier/manufacturer clients.
