Cyanogen Mod is now Cyanogen Inc.

Yup that’s right, Cyanogen mod has gone commercial! Cyanogen mod has been powering devices all the way back to the original G1 and continues to breathe life into devices both old and new the world over! Hell Cyanogen Mod is the force that keeps my aging Nexus S ticking over every morning. I know what many of you are thinking, they have gone commercial, and so that obviously means they sold out to the corporate machine, gone over to the dark side! Well founder Steve Kondik has made it clear that not much will change as the Cyanogen team will still be as committed to the community as always. 

So far Cyanogen Inc. has received some $7 million in funding and the benefits have slowly been trickling down to the end users in the form of the new professional grade camera app and remote device management features. There is even talk of a Cyanogen Mod installer that will provide a bullet proof method of installing the Custom OS on a variety of devices.  This should be available on the play store in a few weeks so stay tuned. I for one can’t wait to see what else the team at Cyanogen Mod…..I mean Inc. has to offer to the community so until then, good luck to team Cyanogen going forward, I expect great things in the future! To the rest of the community, keep calm, flash Cyanogen mod nightlies!
