CyanogenMod 11 M7 is being pushed to download servers starting today.The team at Cyanogen have indicated that this build still runs Android 4.4.2, but that the next major release, M8, will be based off Android 4.4.3. Google has started rolling out OTA Android 4.4.3 updates for several Nexus branded devices last week, and Motorola has also started pushing out the latest Android build to the Moto X, Moto G and the Moto E.

The M7 update brings performance improvements for low-memory devices, a new calculator UI, Trebuchet enhancements and much more. Here's a changelog of the new features:

  • Common: Theme Chooser UI Overhaul
  • Common: Calculator app redesign (courtesy Xlythe)
  • Common: Performance Profiles
  • Common: Improved theming performance on low memory devices (~512MB RAM or less)
  • Trebuchet: Move settings to new slide-out panel
  • Trebuchet: Consolidate settings for home and drawer options
  • Media: Add FFMPEG support (expanded media format support)
  • Bluetooth: Improved support for new car audio systems and docks
  • Various small bugfixes, global and device-specific

With the latest build, Cyanogen has announced support for new devices that include the HTC One M8, Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 (mondrianwifi), Galaxy Note 8.0 LTE (n5120) and LG G2 Docomo (l01f).

While the M8 update will be live in the month of July, you can try the CyanogenMod nightly builds if you're interested in getting your hand on Android 4.4.3 right away.

  • 4.4.3 is out on nightlies and running like a dream on my s3.. Big props to the cm teams Posted via Android Central App
  • Same here. I am going to keep the Nightlies just to have the 4.4.3 update to contacts. I like the new UI.
  • I guess I should update soon.. Nexus 4 - CM10.1.3
  • Not too very tech savy, could someone explain how I can get this on my Galaxy Note 2 please.
  • I would provide a link but I'm on my work computer...the easiest way will be using the Cyanogen installer.
  • CM is available for several versions of the Galaxy Note 2. What carrier are you on?
  • +1
  • After using the Cyanogenmod installer you will have to boot into recovery, wipe and flash M7 along with Google Apps.
  • Hi, Just wanted to know whether this mod is compatible with galaxy grand duos devices. Please let me know. Thanks.
  • Sadly, no as CM does not work well with dual-SIM devices. There is an unofficial CM port for the device, which can you check out from here.
  • Hi Harish, want to install this on my friends Samsung S3 phone. He has bought it here from india and unlocked. How do i go about this. Thanks
  • If the device was bought in India, it would be the international version of the device (GT-I9300). Head over to this link to download the M7 build. Do you know how to flash CM?
  • No M7 for the nexus 5 yet? Posted via Android Central App
  • Yeah. Still on nightlies.
  • DAMN! I just clean flashed M6 yesterday. Phone was running like a piece... Finally got everything set back up the way I like it.
  • Haha I can understand. Now I routinely use two devices: one as my daily driver and one for flashing and generally testing out new ROMs.
  • Just installed hoping the problem with the Them Provider was corrected. Unfortunately it hasn't. Still getting "Unfortunately Theme Provider Has Stopped". I did a wipe of cache/dalvik. I even deleted the apk file for the provider and reinstalling the update.
  • Same here, never had the problem before I flashed the m7 from the m6, very dissapointing.
  • Somebody knows is possible install in Note 3 At&t (N900A)?????????????
  • I love how far CM has come. They made my GS3 useable, and I'm eternally grateful for that. If something pulls me away from Motorola when it's time to upgrade, it'll be a CM supported device.
  • So still no Droid maxx support? Hmmm Posted via my DROID MAXX
  • Its ashame that CM has gotten so big, they are starting to forget the phones that don't pay them :( ... Running the lg g2 on verizon and its still stuck on the 12a radio, The dev maintainer has abandoned the phone and this think sucks with CM on it now...Random reboots all the time, painful to use.
  • I really enjoy CM on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus! Posted via Android Central App
  • I haven't been able to go beyond M4 on my wife's Galaxy Nexus. Major issues with processes crashing, sms not working, 3g/lte hand off. Posted via Android Central App
  • I've been running 4.4.3 nightlies in my N5 and it runs perfectly. Posted via Android Central App
