CyanogenMod Reaches 2 Million Installs, Over 750 Different Devices Have Received the Love

Everyone’s favorite custom ROM CyanogenMod, has officially hit two million installs. It seems like only a short time ago that everyone was excited about CM5 on the “OG” DROID and here we are in 2012 with CyanogenMod 9 ruling the world. For those curious, the stat tracker uses unique hardware ID’s, so reflashing and reinstalling the ROM doesn’t count towards that number. In the grand scheme of things, these numbers are quite small when considering how many Android devices are currently activated in the world. With daily activation numbers reaching 800,000+ a day, the total number looks to be around 375 million. Congrats to the Cyanogen Community and fingers crossed that it only keeps growing.

    Love these guys! <3

    (Cid kinda give me the creeps though. He's looks a little menacing)

    Anyway, keep up the good work. I made a donation. Everyone who uses CM should.

    I might be wrong here but don’t the developers behind AOKP use CM source?.If so basically you’re running a rebranded CM with CM features missing.

    Big ups to the CM team for laying down the foundation and supporting so many devices but when it comes to my Gnex they’ve become similar to past gens “Droid Mod”

    I have ran CM9 only on my Galaxy Nexus. Haven’t ran another rom. I just like how its fast and stable and doesn’t have a ton of features I would never use. Also the features it has right now are implemented a lot better then AOKP. AOKP’s way feels like they just threw it on top. CM9 feels like its meant to be there.

        That’s what’s annoying me, I’d upgrade to a Stratosphere from my D2, but, you guys don’t have CM9 yet! Get on it!

      Yea its for the thunderbolt. Its just not official yet. Probably never will be because of how the phone is designed.

    I’m an AOKP man myself, but I’m more impressed by the fact that CM developed a working ROM for 750 devices than that they’ve had 2 million installs…I never would’ve guessed there were 750 Android devices alone!

    CM is great for those of us who wants as close to a stock experience as possible, while still getting the performance benefits of a ROM. Also, some of us don’t need/want all the extra features in other ROMs.

    I’ve been running the CM9 Galaxy Nexus (aka toro) nightlies for a few weeks now and they are incredible stable. Fear them not! Download at get.cm or via RomManager Premium.

    I can not for the life of me find CM9 for my CDMA Galaxy Nexus. Can someone linky? All I can find is nightlys.

      I think that’s all there is. No official release. Not even an RC possibly. Been too busy with AOKP to keep track these days! Someone link if I’m mistaken!

        You’re correct. Nightlies only.

      It’s not even worth it man. I tried it not too long ago, and it’s very feature less. If that’s your thing, then I guess have at it, but AOKP is the new CM for the Galaxy Nexus. It’s kanged just about all that CM offers so why use something else? AOKP is pretty solid these days anyway, especially after the latest milestone rls.

        Seconded. I used CM on my OG Droid, but I use AOKP on the Nexus. AOKP is more on top of their game. CM still doesn’t even have the LED flashlight working. AOKP has swagger.

          and thats one reason I will never run AOKP. It has useless stuff I will never use. Swagger toggle does nothing. So why have it?

      I’m pretty sure VZW Nexus is still on CM Nightlies

      AOKP Milestone 5 with Franco’s latest nightly kernel (r173) and the IMM76K radios is the way to go (at the moment) for the GNex.
