CyanDelta Updater Adds Support For Paranoid Android To Spare More People From Large Nightly Updates

CyanDelta Updater Adds Support For Paranoid Android To Spare More People From Large Nightly Updates

Bertel King, Jr. Bertel King, Jr.

The CyanDelta Updater app now has support for Paranoid Android, so users of that ROM can join the likes of their CyanogenMod or OmniROM running peers in avoiding that beefy ROM update each night. Keeping up with the nightly Joneses typically requires downloading a sizable update daily, but CyanDelta addresses this situation by only pulling down delta files, which contain just the part of each update that has actually changed. The premise is simple: why download an entire ROM each day if you can simply get what's new?

We'll go quietly into that... what? This is isn't the last Paranoid Android build? It's just feature-complete and stable, and development on the custom ROM will continue? Ah. Well, carry on then.

If you've got a Qualcomm-powered, international Galaxy Note 3 and an appreciation for up-to-date software, you might want to check out the latest official leaked ROM from SamMobile. They've posted a purported test build for the KitKat 4.4.2 update of the Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (that's the Snapdragon 800 model with LTE bands). This leak comes just two days after the Android 4.4 build for the Galaxy S4.

New CyanogenMod 11 Nightly Builds Bring KitKat To Sprint's LG G2 And The Samsung Galaxy Express

New CyanogenMod 11 Nightly Builds Bring KitKat To Sprint's LG G2 And The Samsung Galaxy Express

Bertel King, Jr. Bertel King, Jr.

Wild CyanogenMod 11 nightlies first appeared on Nexus devices just under a week ago, and they were followed up only a day later by builds for a slew of other devices. Still, many devices are still waiting for their share of KitKat. Today we can strike two more off that list - Sprint's LG G2 (ls980) and the Samsung Galaxy Express (expressatt).

CyanogenMod 11 may have been around for nearly a week now, but don't let that give you a false sense of confidence.

CyanogenMod 10.2 (Android 4.3) Stable Builds Are Now Rolling Out

Jeremiah Rice Jeremiah Rice

ROM news for the last month or so have been focused on KitKat, but if you prefer your customized Android software in a more reliable flavor, Cyanogen has you covered. CyanogenMod 10.2, the CM build of Jelly Bean 4.3, just landed on the download page. You can stroll over there right now and get your Android 4.3 on.

CyanogenMod stable builds are the most reliable and complete packages offered by the custom ROM team, and generally have no bugs or incompatibilities (or at least no more than the standard AOSP builds).

CyanogenMod 10.2 Release Candidate 1 Is Now Available For Download, Brings Android 4.3 To Select Devices

Bertel King, Jr. Bertel King, Jr.

If the beta version of CyanogenMod isn't quite stable on your device and you're uncomfortable with the idea of installing a nightly, today marks a big step forward. The CyanogenMod team has rolled out the first release candidate for 10.2. If you want a relatively clean build of Android 4.3 for your phone or tablet, this is a pretty solid way to go.

The first 10.1 release candidate (with Android 4.2) came out a week before Google unveiled Android 4.3.

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies For The 3G And WiFi-Only Galaxy Note 8.0 Are Now Available For Download

CyanogenMod 10.2 Nightlies For The 3G And WiFi-Only Galaxy Note 8.0 Are Now Available For Download

Bertel King, Jr. Bertel King, Jr.

The Galaxy Note 8.0 is a pretty capable tablet, though it does have several drawbacks. While the painfully low 1280 by 800 display can't be helped, its default software configuration is far less immutable. If TouchWiz just grinds your gears, you will be happy to know that CyanogenMod nightlies are now available for both the 3G (GT-N5100) and WiFi-only (GT-N5110) versions of the tablet. Sure, anyone who installs them now may be sacrificing stability and other functionality, but that's the price some are willing to pay for stock Android and quicker access to updates.

Folks rocking the Sprint version of the LG Optimus G have reason to celebrate today. Although LG has moved on to the G2, the ROM community is showing some love to last year's device. CyanogenMod 10.2 has added support for the LG Optimus G on Sprint.

2013-09-20 09_35_40-CyanogenMod Downloads

The first nightly build of 10.2 is now live and ready for download and clocks in at 189.92MB. All those glorious bytes will rocket the device from Android 4.1 all the way up to 4.3 with no crapware and a cleaner UI.
