Galaxy S III Tastes CyanogenMod 9 Nightly Builds




Galaxy S III, the latest Android-based flagship device from Samsung, can now be customized with CyanogenMod 9 nightly builds.

The CyanogenMod 9 ROMs are based on Google’s Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, but they do not feature the same TouchWiz UI that Samsung packed the device with. Through downloading and installing said nightly builds for the Galaxy S III, users will enjoy the vanilla flavor of Android, with a series of other improvements and optimizations throughout the platform. These are official CyanogenMod 9 releases for the smartphone, but they represent only early development stages of custom ROMs for the handsets, which means that users are certain to bump into various issues when running them. At the moment, the team behind CyanogenMod 9 for Galaxy S III notes that the FM Radio does not work on the handset, and that users should get Spirit FM from the Google Play Store to substitute it. Another issue is related to the phone’s camera, which force closes on some mobile phones when using LED flash.

Those who try to wake the phone up using the volume keys will not be able to do so sometimes, the team notes. The phone won’t recognize key presses when in sleep mode. Additional info on the new CyanogenMod 9 nightlies for Galaxy S III can be found on this forum thread on XDA-Developers. Just keep in mind that this is not official software for the mobile phone, and that installing it will void your warranty. As the CyanogenMod team notes, users are the only ones to be held responsible in the event that anything happens with the phone while installing these builds or while using them. Galaxy S III owners who would still want to get these new builds on their devices should head over to the aforementioned forum thread to learn more on how to download and install them.
