CyanogenMod 6 Update Bringing Support For More Devices
Team Douche might have been a bit quiet on their CM6 developments as of late, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t been working. Steve Kondik – Cyanogen himself – updated us on their roadmap a few days ago and it looks like we’re jumping straight to a 6.1 release. He promises new features like touch-to-focus in the camcorder, the ability to dismiss notifications by swiping (woohoo!), overall improved performance, and more. Not only that, but their list of targeted devices has been updated to add the Acer Liquid, the HTC Wildfire, and the Samsung Vibrant (and the T-Mobile G2 is on their radar, though the device isn’t out so he can’t say for sure when they’ll get started on it. He also mentions other HTC phones as being on his radar, as well, so you can probably expect international offerings such as the HTC Desire HD and the HTC Desire Z.)
So there you have it! As we said during our Phandroid LIVE live podcast Tuesday night, the machine that CyanogenMod has grown to become is unbelievable and we wish them the best as they continue to bring the after-market AOSP goods to some of our favorite Android devices.
