Lineage OS
CyanogenMod is dead at the end of last year. But it wasn't the end of the world's most popular Android custom ROM. It's the Cyanogen team again working on the continuation of the open source custom ROM project. Linage OS, it's a pheonix coming out of the ashes of CyanogenMod.
So, the OS will continue now to make it popular again.
But there will be some basic differences with the CyanogenMod.
1. You can't access root files by default. It will show as a flashble zip file & will require a one time application to gain the elevated permissions.
2. You can't upgrade to Linage OS directly from CyanogenMod. Means you have to wipe your phone first & then have to install Lineage OS freshly.
So, that was the differences. Linage haven't launched any official build yet. But they said they'll be launching it very soon. But an unofficial build has been released, having already 50k+ downloads (WOW!). For now this is for 80 phones & running Marshmallow or Nougat only, but surely will increase very soon.
That's it for now. But who are feeling very eager to get the ROM, click here, see if your phone belongs from the 80 phones.
