1. BY

2. CyanogenMod is an alternative operating system intended
to replace the one pre-installed on our smartphones and
tablets.

3. Why cyanogenmod ?
● lt is an open source operating system for
smartphones and tablets, based on the
Android mobile platform. lt is developed as
free and open source software based on the
official releases of Android by Google, with
added original and third-party code. lt is
based on a rolling release development
model.
● lt offers features and options not found in
the official firmware distributed by vendors
of these devices.

4. Android vs CyanogenMod
About 1-2 times a year, the vanilla Android operating
system (known as AOSP, or the Android Open Source
Project) is internally developed, then released to the
public, by Google.
The CyanogenMod community, comprised mostly of
unpaid volunteers and enthusiasts from around the
world, takes this newest Android code and "ports" it
to dozens of new and older (aka "legacy") device

5. Should I modify ("mod") my
device?
When making the decision on whether or not to modify the
software on your device, several factors come into play. Our
Android device is a pretty much full computer.so it may help
to think of it in the same way as you would consider modifying
your laptop or desktop computer from its stock installation.

6. Oh wait! What’s firmware?
The term "firmware", then, is just a legacy terminology to
refer to the software you put on your handheld devices.
But speaking realistically, we may as well think of it as
"software, particularly an operating system and apps,
that can be put on my device."

Never miss an update! This
updater not only lets you have the
latest releases, but you can update
on your own schedule.

11. Privacy guard.
Control what your applications can
learn about you and your contacts.
Protect yourself with a simple
click, or long press an app to delve
deep.

12. Global blacklist.
Baked right into the OS is the
ability to flag telemarketers,
robocallers, annoying people (yes
even the in-laws) and blacklist
them. Never receive another call
or message from them (or maybe
just ignore them for a little bit).

13. Quick setting ribbon
Embed quick toggles (and even
your camera) right in your
notification drawer, just one swipe
away.

14. Quick setting config
Whether using the ribbon view or
the larger grid view, customize the
layout and order of your quick
settings

15. Theme
With the integrated theme engine,
you can change the look and feel of
the entire OS. Sports fan? Why not
get a sports theme for your
favorite team. Or maybe you just
need a lighter overall look. Or red,
green, or yellow. Endless
possibilities!

16. Status Bar Behavior
Customize your status bar and
unlock some additional behavior.
Tap the time to quickly set an
alarm or tap the date to access
your calendar. Show or hide as
much as you'd like.

17. Navbar
Why stop at hardware buttons?
Customize the software navigation
bar to your liking as well.

18. Root Access
Useful to developers and users
alike, control your exposure to
root applications and debugging
tools.

19. Superuser
Manage root access to only the
applications you trust, check
access logs, and revoke their
access when you are done.

20. Advantages
● Better
performance
● Extra
features
● Remove unwanted
programs
("bloatware")
installed by our
carrier
● Receive more
frequent security
updates
● Have access to the
current version of
Android - most carriers
take months to update
devices on their
network to the latest
version of Android, if
ever. Taking control of
your OS allows you to
update regularly, when
you feel like it's time.

21. Disadvantages
Some device manufacturers or
mobile providers may offer a
limited or voided warranty
after modifying
It is possible that by installing a
rooted operating system, you
introduce new security risks.
For instance, you need to be
smart about the permissions
you grant applications.

22. Conflicts
Non-stock firmware could contain
malicious code - which is a good
argument for making sure you
download custom ROMs from
trusted sources, or even better,
learn to build it yourself!
Stability issues may arise when using an
experimental operating system.
However, for many people,
CyanogenMod has proven to be
more stable than many official
ROMs.
