I have restored the citations removed by TheWeakWilled. The "WP:SELFPUBLISH" and "WP:TWITTER" guidelines refer to citing self-published documents as an authority on the truth value of encyclopedic claims of fact. In other words, anyone can set up a web site that says "African elephants are not endangered," but if the source- be it a web site or a twitter feed or whatever- is not from a reliable or credible authority, this does not make for a good citation. However, the CyanogenMod article is not claiming that the statements made within the cited references are or are not true. Rather, it is merely making the claim that certain discussions (or statements) took place, which is entirely different. To go back to our original example-- an article on elephants would violate WP:SELFPUBLISH by citing our rogue web site to support an encyclopedic claim that African elephants are not endangered. The same Web site, however, might be a perfectly legitimate citation for an article on, say, Internet hoaxes which claims that notorious hoaxter "Joe Blow claims on his web site that African elephants are not endangered." In this context, the citation is supporting the assertion that Joe Blow says something on his website, not whether or not Joe is correct in what he says. Similarly, the citations in this article are merely saying that a discussion about Google took place and not whether or not the correspondents were correct in what they were saying.) The citation of Cyanogen's tweet is de facto support of the claim that Cyanogen made such a statement-- unless TheWeakWilled is calling into question whether Cyanogen is actually the developer of CyanogenMod, which I can't imagine he is. -- Replysixty ( talk) 23:14, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
Anything new as of late July 2010, e.g. whether Droid X will be supported in CyanogenMod 6? I've only been following this topic for about an hour (literally), so I'm not in a position to do any credible work on this article yet. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ Contribs. 11:23, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
I've merged the pointless little UltimateDroid stub into this article, since as a stand-alone article about something that is simply CyanogenMod repackaged under another name with a fraudulent claim of originality, it was destined for a snowball AfD any day now. It could probably be tightened into about 60% of its current rambling length, but I'm tired and am going to sleep. It badly needs complete and properly formatted ( Template:Cite web) citations. — SMcCandlish Talk⇒ ʕ(Õلō)ˀ Contribs. 12:20, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
Although this is a months-old edit, I don't think Ultimate Droid should redirect here especially when it makes no mention of the Ultimate Droid project. Whatever happened back in April, Ultimate Droid was not originally and is not currently a repackaging of CM but is a distinct project. One release was claimed to have lifted a large amount of CM code without giving credit, but again the incident is not in the article. Vitriol drips from your comment, by the way. Not sure if that's in the spirit of neutrality. --Saren —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarc3n ( talk • contribs) 17:29, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
Now that CM6 is released and supports many more devices the page is looking increasingly disjointed. We probably need to do a complete rewrite of the page to include separate sections for CM4, CM5 and CM6, include the Google issues and possibly the UltimateDroid controversy as separate sections and make the article not so Nexus One focused. Also we should use either codenames or official names for devices, for example the "Slide" refers to the HTC Espresso which is sold as the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Slide, the term "Slide" is an informal nickname and not very descriptive. Raitchison ( talk) 17:42, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
The information given by "In late September 2009, Google issued a cease-and-desist letter to CyanogenMod's chief developer, Steve Kondik. This action was widely viewed as a challenge to the open source community Google had claimed to embrace. However, the legal issue was Cyanogen's inclusion of closed source Google applications in the ROM, not the open source Android OS." is almost the same information as given below that. I've rewritten the last section to include the details not mentioned to get rid of this unnecessary introduction. -- 93.125.198.182 ( talk) 17:41, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
This section is just a boilerplate bit of developer text. It has no secondary sources and seems to exists solely to guide editors who might want to get involved in the development of the software. The non-argument used to re-add it was:
this is not commercial software; it is open-source, community oriented. Thus, a notable portion of CyanogenMod distribution (~25% of users) use development/nightly builds. This belongs in the article
The same could be said for a large proportion of software products covered by Wikipedia, but we are not obliged to provide such boilerplate for them either. This should be removed, as this is a tertiary source covering what notable secondary sources have said about the subject and not just some sort of extension of the CyanogenMod website. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) ( talk) 09:21, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
Clearly "slighl" wasn't supposed to be the summary. A null edit afterwards gave the actual summary. I would have thought anyone could see this.
Anyway, this can't stay in the article. For starters the wording is misleading - noting a bug fix in a changelog does not constitute Netflix officially supporting anything (and should we even be using Rootzwiki as a source??). Aside from that, this isn't even an interesting fact since 99.9% of Android apps work on Cyanogenmod anyway because Cyanogenmod is just Android. This is on a par with device-specific issues, for example one day someone might find a bug in Galaxy S devices and that'll be fixed, the next day there'll be a weird incompatibility with a HTC wifi driver and that'll be fixed. Would we list any of these in their articles? Of course not. Similarly the fact that Netflix is popular-ish means little. They aren't the first popular company to fix issues specific to CM and they won't be the last. Are we going to list every single one? The article is supposed to document things of lasting encyclopedic importance. This isn't. – Steel 01:32, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
CyanogenMod team announced "We would like to assure everyone that Carrier IQ has never, and will never be a part of our Operating System". http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cyanogenmod-will-never-have-carrier-iq • Sbmeirow • Talk • 08:06, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
This is a very long, very useless, and mostly unsourced table. The parts of it which are sourced just link back to the CM blog or Cyanogen's twitter, against WP:RS (Material based purely on primary sources should be avoided.), and including every single minor release to three or four decimal places is WP:NOT what the article is for (Changelogs or release notes. An article about a product should include a history of its development and major improvements; creating a list of all changes to software or hardware between each minor version violates other precepts of this policy.; WP:NOT not A complete exposition of all possible details). At the very least it needs to be cut down to just the major releases, though tbh those are covered above in the prose anyway, but it can't stay as it is. Move it to the CM wiki, which would be the ideal home?
More generally this article is bad on the sourcing front with 75% being to the CM website itself, and the rest to xda or the Android newsblogs. – Steel 00:40, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
This table suffers from the same problems, but arguably more so. – Steel 00:40, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
I also agree that the version history has to be shortened, as of NOTCHANGELOG. Also, I am not fond of the background colors for the major versions. It looks pretty, but does hardly add information to the table. Hence, a cell with background:#44798E is too hard to read, especially if there is a link inside. See WP:CONTRAST. Also, please read my efforts to standardize version history tables in Wikipedia. In short: I will work on a shortened version of the current release history. Current state will be archived, tbd.

Hi all,

Which is the current CyanogenMod logo? Has a new logo been even announced?
In a new boot animation (
link,
link), which most likely will be included in the stable CM10, the wordmark looks exactly as in the previous 7.x version. However, in the "
logo" currently at this article, the wordmark text is written in usual thin
Open Sans font.
I think it is because it was used as usual text, to present (sign) mascot, not the logo. That graphic was taken from
their blog, where they were presenting new mascot, not new logo. By the way, the logo on official website
cyanogenmod.com has not been changed at all.
I think only one of the mascot Cid projects will be used in a logo, and maybe even cropped, as on
Google+ page of CyanogenMod.

Someone took the information whether releases are still supported or not from the german version. See the post by "Jesus Presley" in Version history However, this information was added to the german version without references. So it looks like you'll need to find other references or remove it. -- TheRandomIP ( talk) 19:30, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
Dear 122.166.177.195,
why did you change the logo to an outdated version of Cyanogen Inc? 1) This article is about CyanogenMod 2) Cyanogen Inc changed their logo in 2015, so your logo is outdated anyway.
Please stop changing the logo or explain why you think an outdated logo of Cyanogen Inc fits better than the CyanogenMod logo. --

So it looks like you'll need to find other references or remove it. -- TheRandomIP ( talk) 19:30, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
Dear 122.166.177.195,
why did you change the logo to an outdated version of Cyanogen Inc? 1) This article is about CyanogenMod 2) Cyanogen Inc changed their logo in 2015, so your logo is outdated anyway.
Please stop changing the logo or explain why you think an outdated logo of Cyanogen Inc fits better than the CyanogenMod logo. --

CyanogenMod and Cyanogen OS are two distinct entities. You can't say that "CyanogenMod, also known as Cyanogen OS ...", because they are not the same! Source: http://www.androidheadlines.com/2014/11/cyanogen-confirms-distinction-commercial-cyanogen-os-cyanogenmod.html If you want to mention "Cyanogen OS", you can do this in the "Cyanogen Inc" paragraph. -- TheRandomIP ( talk) 16:35, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

It looks like parts of their website are down. I can only access the downloads page. the forum was set read only, and now won't load. I'm speculating here, but maybe they are moving it, or maybe they are just getting too much traffic today. Autumn Wind ( talk) 17:15, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
All referances to www.cyanogenmod.org are now dead links. The site has been shut down by the owner. All links to it need to be converted to archived links. Phatom87 ( talk • contribs) 21:50, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

I SEE that this artical clames that Cyanogen is a girl software engineer. Who was really behind it rather than just this obvios PR plant? — Preceding
