5 Phones You Should Probably Let Rest in Peace

1. T-Mobile HTC G1

I've seen a few people install Jellybean on their HTC G1, and from what I've seen, it was not a good time, nor experience. If this was my daily phone, I'd probably stick to Cyanogenmod 7 on it.

2. Samsung Transform

I used to be an owner of one of these devices, It was never Samsung's brightest idea, The phone was so slow, but it didn't stop people from putting Cyanogenmod on it. I believe this phone made it to Cyanogenmod 10, but not much further into 10.

Again, if this phone was my daily driver, It'd have Cyanogenmod 7 on it. It wasn't my proudest moments, but it was an okay phone.

3. Motorola i1

From my understandings this phone was shipped with an Old version of Android, lets just hope nobody actually decided to put Cyanogenmod 10 on this phone, It would be crazy slow, but overall it looks really cool, phones don't really have much character anymore.

4. Nexus One

Nexus one, Very trustworthy, very nice design, but sadly, its dead. This phone actually received a 4.1 Jellybean update, which was surprising. I'm sure there's more cyanogenmod's out there for it.

5. Samsung Galaxy Y

Okay, now this just makes me laugh. Look at it. There's no hope in the poor little device. It looks like something uncle Larry bought for the kids at AT&T for $70 just to say they got an Android phone..

This phone has got to be god awful slow. I don't know if I'd even bother putting Cyanogenmod on it, and it looks like it was made so cheaply, in which it probably was to be a Go-Phone.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions)

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions) I'm excited to bring you this news today, Galaxy S3 users can now download the Google Play Edition of Android (As close as you will get to it) only on USA Versions as of right now. It all started when I got inspired by the sunbeam live wallpaper (How loco?). I decided to disect a Cyanogenmod Rom, first I started with AOKP, but was not satisfied by all the more options. Options are never a bad thing, but when you start with a 4.4.2 Nightly build of AOKP, You don't know where the heck the lockscreen settings are, or in fact I don't think it added any options for the lockscreen ring. They are still working on it, the rom is pretty crystal clear, and pure right now as it is. I decided to revise. I turned to the CM10.2 version, and started to play with it, luckily I soon got all the Google Apps installed correctly with no problem, and now I'm working on a revised build of the 4.4.2 Google Play Edition. I know just...

HTC Sense 7 LEAKED SCREENSHOTS!!!

HTC Sense 7 LEAKED SCREENSHOTS!!! Android "L" or Lollipop, also known as 5.0 is coming soon, well that means an all new Sense is on its way too of course! If you look at the above images you can definitely see how influenced Sense 7 is by Android L. Android 5, L is basically all themed on flat, but vibrant colors. This teal is one color option, but it's very nicely displayed by HTC Sense 7. I'm for sure the HTC One M8, as well as a lot of other HTC devices will be getting this Sense 7 update in the nearing future. There is also talk on a All new HTC Desire coming soon, will it be shipped stock with Sense 7, Android 5, L? I guess its a waiting game for HTC Fanboys. HTC has been on their game here lately with the slickness, and beauty of devices. I got a chance to play around with the HTC One M8 a little bit, and have to say I liked it very much, then the iPhone 6 came out, and I wondered if they were trying to copy some of the style? Get your own style...

LG G2 AT&T (D800) Cyanogenmod Semi-Nightlies

LG G2 AT&T (D800) Cyanogenmod Semi-Nightlies I am currently releasing the D801 (T-Mobile LG G2) Builds for the D800. Basically, I am taking the D801 CM12 Nightlies ever so often, and modifying the kernel for AT&T G2 Devices. I will be releasing these every 5-10 days, until the official CM12 Nightlies start coming in for the D800, which shouldn't be too far along. Everything seems to work so far, last week I had a build that didn't have the Display & Lights option working, but on the Feb. 21st build, it is successfully working flawlessly. Comments below, or on the XDA Thread will be helpful, also reporting to CM the issues because chances are, if you're having a bug, the T-Mobile users are too. This is version 5.0.2, and will be updated from time to time! Working: Everything I see so far. Not Working: Nothing, The Display and Lights option crash was fixed.
