Additionally, users can customize the shortcuts that appear of the Quick Settings menu. The team has also made improvements to the default camera app, allowing users to control it using voice commands, which comes in particularly handy for taking pictures at a distance rather than having to setup a timer and dash into shot. There are also some more obviously useful changes too, such as the ability to quickly reply to SMS messages from the notification bar or to record your screen as a video file.
CyanogenMod has also borrowed some open source features from other ROMs. This works on the principle of using mandatory access controls, rather than root permissions, in order to control which parts of the system apps can and cannot access.
Of course, other ROMs have their own features, so picking the right one for your will come down to preference. In my opinion, CyanogenMod is an excellent all-rounder, with plenty of extra options to improve day to day usage, as well as under the hood settings for those who like to tweak every inch of their handset.
This allows users to easily download and install theme apk files or download themes directly from the Google Play Store. Next we need to install a tool to enable us to install CyanogenMod 13, and TWRP is recommended for the job - again, find the right download for your device and download the standalone file it will end with. Move it to the same folder as the adb and fastboot utilities see previous step.
Back to the bootloader again: type in "adb reboot bootloader" then press Enter. The custom recovery is transferred over, then use the volume buttons to select Recovery Mode. Hit the Power button to confirm. After all that, you're finally ready to install CyanogenMod 13 on your device As before, adb is our friend: find the CyanogenMod download we picked up back in step 2 from this list in the same folder as adb and use "adb push filename.
The transfer may take a few moments to complete. When it's finished, tap on the 'Install' button inside the TWRP app and select the zip file you just moved over: you can then swipe along the bottom of the screen and the installation process begins.
Tap Reboot System and you should see CyanogenMod For the sake of brevity we've breezed through those steps very quickly and focused exclusively on Windows and not said much about adb and fastboot - if you find yourself lost, the instructions for your chosen device on the CyanogenMod Wiki should be enough to get you back on the right track again. Don't be disheartened if you run into problems, because this can be quite a fiddly process. Often you'll just have missed out one step or the right process for your device will just be slightly different - a quick web search for CyanogenMod and your phone make and model will often turn up some potential troubleshooting tips.
At first glance, CyanogenMod might seem a lot like Android, but there's plenty to explore here: you can tweak the look of the status bar, access a fully fledged file manager straight from the off, and configure multiple settings profiles for different situations in the car, at work and at home for example.
Thankfully, the good people over at the Internet Archive have re-hosted the existing CyanogenMod builds, so you can still flash CM The main holdup is that there are no device pages anymore, so you'll have to decipher the actual file names to make sure you're downloading the right ZIP for your device. So to start, head to Wikipedia and search for your device using its common name example: Nexus 5.
Once you arrive at the main Wikipedia article, look for the quick facts pane on the right side of the page. From here, you should see a "Codename" field, so copy this information down.
If no code name is listed, just continue on with this guide. The installer takes you step-by-step through the process. Unsupported devices To use this fast and easy way of installing CyanogenMod, you're going to need a supported device — the list mostly covers Nexus devices and older Samsung and HTC hardware, and if your particular phone or tablet hasn't made the cut yet you're going to have to use Android Studio instead. To use the official installer you need a supported device.
