CyanogenMod 5.0 (beta2) for Nexus One

January 26th, 2010

Thanks to Google’s open-sourcing of the 2.1 platform and a lot of work by myself and many others I’d like to give you guys CyanogenMod-5.0-beta2 for the Nexus One.

It won’t be available on CM Updater during the beta period.

Check out XDA Developers for everything you need to know!

    FIRST!

  • Justin

    so this is ONLY if you have the nexus one? this will not work on a G1 32B? I feel like I’m asking a stupid question here but I feel I must ask.

  • asd

    Please dont leave the Magic for the newcomer! We need the CyanogenMod for Magic!!!

  • Daniel

    MUST NEXUS!
    CM seems abandon G1 and G2′s friends.
    :(

  • Waldo

    Cyanogen has said he’ll support the g1, but doesn’t have the drivers yet (I think)… read his twitter feed @cyanogen for detailed info…

  • madAndroid

    hiya :)

    yeah, must also ask .. are you leaving the HTC Dream and Magic development behind and only concentrating on the Nexus One?

  • Waldo

    madAndroid. He answered that:

  • madAndroid

    “I am doing the Nexus version first because I am not going to make a half working dream/magic build with missing features.”

    – i see :) .. makes sense!

    cheers!

  • me

    Will the Nexus One and the G1 stuff be two different code trees, or exactly the same CyanogenMod release with just different kernels?

  • carlitos

    G1ame Over

  • paolosv

    i have see a cymod kernel for 5.0 beta2 is true?!

  • PsychoI3oy

    What a bunch of whining drama queens.

    NO. Steve is not abandoning Magic/Dream ROMs.
    NO. The game is not over (but you just lost it).
    NO. He will not release an Eclair ROM for Dream/Magic until a couple things are worked out, most importantly video drivers and a 2.x base to legally flash over for googlybits.

    NO. You cannot have a pony.

  • SXRXE

    @PsychoI3oy

    But I want a pony! :(

  • mr.incredible

    I thought it was funnier when it said “No, you can’t have pony.”

  • Dixon

    Ive tried soooo many mods and roms – no one can fight with the speed of Cyanogen! THANKS from Stockholm Sweden!

    I just want to chime in and say thanks. I know you’re still supporting the G1, and I’m EXTREMELY grateful. It means at this point you’re not just being nice and sharing your personal mod with the community, it means you’re going back and taking care of people who still use a phone you don’t use any more. That’s very generous of you, and I really appreciate it.

    Keep up the great work!

  • Flo

    Ich versteh des net wir brauchen cyanogen !!!
    macht weiter roms !!!!

  • Mitch

    So…..if I have a DROID….what should I download …this website is kind of confusing….is the newest version always the best?

  • j2eubank

    4.2.13 is a solid build that we have only had for 16 days.. sit back and enjoy its goodness. If you have to have 2.1 now go buy a Nexus : )

  • Renn9420

    Can’t wait to see what he has going on with the G1. Then hopefully I get a Nexus and see how the roms are for that…. :)

  • greenlight63

    Im so excited for the G1 version!!!! Thanks!

  • Ryan

    Great. What about Motorola Droid?

  • greenlight63

    Do we have any timeline for when this will be available for the G1 ?

  • maximosis

    Guys and Gals give Cyanogen a Break He just got a NExus Let the man work! Not to mention he does this on his free time he does have a DAY JOB and a LIFE! not to mention snowboarding season. There are many missing drivers to just “make” this availiable on the G1 or MT3G. I like most of you am on the G1/MT3g Still so lets just wait.. Keep donating and let the man work.

  • Ari Tafari

    But everyone has a pony. My sister has a pony, my cousin has a pony. We all have ponies.

  • maximosis

    Are you trying to say something negative about people who have Ponies? In poland I grew up with a Pony!

  • Ari Tafari

    No. Not at all.
    I like people who have ponies. I think everyone should have a pony.

  • cysco24

    I might not mind a half working G1 version. If it’s just stupid crap i don’t use anyways. And I want a pony, seems I was out the day all of you guys got one.

  • stephen

    we all like to have ponies but a good working one with drivers and all mt3g g1 will have there ponies one day maybe even sooner

  • Louis Tim Larsen

    What about Cyanogen mod for the HTC Hero?

  • tomp

    #25
    nice seinfeld reference, dude

  • Lester

    has anyone tried flashing this to a g1/mt3g wondering what would happen and if it would work at all… but too afraid to break mine lol

  • shawn

    Yay now i can go get me a nexus. been holdin on to the g1 cause of cyanogen i wouldnt leave it but now i can move forward to the nexus one. thank you lots steve keep up good work

  • bluetenken

    Not one comment from anybody about the actual ROM, get back on the subject people. Tried flashing beta1 to no avail, will see how beta2 does.

  • greenlight63

    haha its cause none us have the N1 and we want it for g1/mt3g

  • ash

    Man I can’t wait for the Nexus One to actually be sold to Australians :( If the Cyanogen rom is anything like the G1 for the N1 it’ll be unreal. Keep up the good work guys.

  • Peter

    What happened to all thoes ponies!
    (no more pony talk?)
    OK give the give him some time and Iam sure he can win all us back! lol
    Now meantime you should try this eclair rom for g1 and magic by Manup
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=598973

    g1 will ned to flash radio and spl, magics are good to go after a simple partitioning…. have fun

    Cyan … we’ll be waiting!

  • Peter

    should spell check i guess! lol

  • David

    I wish I had a Nexus.

  • bluetenken

    Success!! My N1 is faster. Awesome work Steve, very stable. So far so good.

  • joe

    4.2.13 is good for now, i can wait for 5.0 for mt3g.
    keep it up dude.

  • aaron

    for everyone hurt cuz they want 2.0 & 2.1, other folks HAVE dropped versions for the g1/magic… check XROM and intension on xda.

  • backSLIDER

    Thanks again! You are my pony hero!

  • ray

    hey nice job!

    FC’s on live wallpaper tho

  • graydon

    2.1 for dream is going to be sick!

  • graydon

    #18 and #22 im pretty sure cyanogen is only for dream, magic and now nexus. you could try the xda forums they mainly do htc modding but they probably have a forum for droids

  • stevo

    found a link earlier to something saying that you can change the colour of the trackball light on the n1 and was wondering wether it would be possible to write this into your next rom.

    here is the link.
