CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit our Gerrit Code Review. Your changelog is whatever was merged into gerrit.

Good News! Any plans for supporting 4.7 version aswell?
Is your device tree based on a similar device like yu tomato oder something, could you give me some hints for setting it up?

No plans at the moment. There's is already someone handling 4.7 variants. Check out the CM port thread for details.

Like a kid on Christmas Eve. Waiting for what's to come. Can't wait to see future progress on this. I would give this a shot but WiFi and MMS are like my main two necessities. Thanks to all of those involved on this port for making this happen.

So close but yet so far.. I was so hyped when saw the thread but got down to earth quickly.. Stay focused my man, you're about to make something that's good into the great..

Just wondering if cm have some incompatibles with root apps like greenify, Viper 4 Android? Thank you

Did you get the kernel to boot building from source or are you still repacking with stock?

It's close. Just seeing how fast @Unjustified Dev has progressed to this point has been impressive.

Great Great Great my idol trembles park in the pits ready to receive new engine.

 

[gecko702]

make sure everyone to get the minimal gapps as 5.1 before download

 

[capeorigins]

Whoohoo! so excited haha.

One wonders why use those minimal gapps rather dated instead of gapps latest? On motog 2014 Cyan 12.1 latest release give FC using ones you reported.
While Cyanogen recommends these:deleted

They worked fine for the testers. I'm sure those gapps would cause issues because they aren't 64 bit compatible.

Then I immediately delete the link to avoid problems.
My ADB is ready.

 

[gecko702]

will it be regular flash or aroma installer?

CyanogenMod
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347837558

Bootimg with adb enabled

Flash cm then the boot.img can be done from twrp or fastboot.

To keep it from crashing we need to remove the wlan module
adb remount
adb shell rm -rf /system/lib/modules/wlan.ko

technically you could do that from twrp without ever flashing the boot.img by mounting system after installing cm and using the included twrp file manager

Ok I'm downloading.
Then install cm after bootloader and still gapps and after I disable the WiFi with ADB or leave everything as it is?

You can flash gapps before and the boot.img isn't needed flash cm and gapps. Once they are done mount system and use the file manager to remove wlan module and that's it reboot and everything should be fine.
