History and development

 nature of the Android operating system, allowed the phone's stock firmware to be modified and re-installed onto the phone.

In the following year, several modified firmwares for the Dream were developed and distributed by Android enthusiasts. One, maintained by a developer named JesusFreke, quickly became popular among Dream owners. In August, 2009, JesusFreke stopped work on his firmware, and suggested users switch to a version of his rom that had been further enhanced by developer Cyanogen (Steve Kondik) called "CyanogenMod".

CyanogenMod quickly grew in popularity, and a small community of developers, known as the CyanogenMod Team (and informally as "Team Douche"), made contributions. Within a few months, the number of devices and features supported by CyanogenMod blossomed and CyanogenMod quickly became one of the most popular Android firmware distributions.

CyanogenMod 6

CyanogenMod 7 development began when Google released Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)'s source code. On 15 February 2011, the first release candidates of CyanogenMod 7 was rolled out on several of the supported devices. The fourth release candidate was released on 30 March 2011 and brought increased support for the Nook Color

 and similar devices as well as many bug fixes. On 11 April 2011, the public version of CyanogenMod 7.0 was released, based on Android 2.3.3. The latest stable version, CyanogenMod 7.1, was released on 10 October 2011, based on Android 2.3.7.

CyanogenMod 8

CyanogenMod version 8 was planned to be based on the Honeycomb (3.x) release of Android. However, no source code for Honeycomb was provided by Google until it appeared in the tree history of the Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) source release. Since Honeycomb was superseded by Ice Cream Sandwich, the release schedule will continue directly from CyanogenMod 7 to CyanogenMod 9.

CyanogenMod 9

The next version, based on Google's Ice Cream Sandwich (4.x) branch of Android, will be called CyanogenMod 9. Steve Kondik and his team have announced that they have begun work on the new release after Google released the source code to Android 4.0.1.

Tools

The CyanogenMod source code repository also contains the ClockworkMod Recovery (a "recovery image", maintained by Koushik "Koush" Dutta), which is used to install CyanogenMod and other custom upgrades. A recovery image is a special boot

Industry reaction

Until recently, the response of tablet and smartphone manufacturers and mobile carrier has typically been less than supportive of third-party firmware development. Manufacturers had expressed concern about improper functioning of devices running unofficial software and related support costs. Moreover, firmware such as CyanogenMod sometimes offer features for which carriers would otherwise charge a premium (e.g. Tethering). As a result, technical obstacles such as locked bootloaders and restricted access to root permissions were common in many devices.

However, as community-developed software has grown popular and following a statement by the Librarian of Congress that permits the use of "jailbreaking" mobile devices, manufacturers and carriers have softened their position regarding CyanogenMod and other unofficial firmware distributions, with some including HTC

In 2011, the need to circumvent hardware restrictions to install unofficial firmware lessened as an increasing number of devices shipped with unlocked or unlockable bootloaders, similar to the Nexus series of phones. Device manufacturer HTC

Licensing

 letter to CyanogenMod's chief developer, Steve Kondik, in late September 2009 demanding he stop distributing the aforementioned applications, development ceased for a few days. The reaction from many CyanogenMod users towards Google was hostile, with some claiming that Google's legal threats hurt their own interests, violated their informal corporate motto "don't be evil

" and was a challenge to the open source community Google claimed to embrace.

Following a statement from Google clarifying its position and a subsequent negotiation between Google and Cyanogen, it was resolved that the CyanogenMod project could continue, albeit in a form that did not directly bundle in the proprietary "Google Experience" components. It was determined that the proprietary Google apps may be backed-up from the Google-supplied firmware on the phone and then re-installed onto CyanogenMod releases without infringing copyright.

Cyanogen has also warned that while issues no longer remain with Google, there are still potential licensing problems regarding proprietary, closed-source device driver
