...yes it is. I have the 2013 version.

Was it an OTA update? Or did you flash it via custom recovery?

I had CleanROM on it, so I had to flash it using TWRP. I'm pretty sure it was OTA, why would they release it but not let people update automatically?

... There's no OTA yet. You installed an unofficial port. You're probably just using Trebuchet or a custom launcher like Nova or Apex

EDIT: You're using Paranoid Android most likely

Kitkat looks really nice.

I have a stock 2012 Nexus 7, running 4.3

What phone do you have?

Also, everyone post their phone info so I can add it to the OP.

Also, Cyanogenmod just put the one-click installer on the Play store! Awesome. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.cyanogenmod.oneclick

htc one vx

So ever since I installed CM 10.1 on my phone, I had two partitions on my phone, which takes up a lot of space, and is kinda weird. Would it be save to wipe my partition of the old original android OS, then allocate more space to Cyanogenmod? I've always been cautious of my phone, since rooting voids the warranty and all.

Oh yeah, for the sake of your list, I'm using a droid Razr Maxx.

Hm. I thought it broke a rule to post something on Google Play that rooted or flashed your phone for you

Google and Cyanogenmod have been pretty tight since the HTC Dream. I think they're ok with it.

[PurpleMetro]

Well lucky me, my phone's not supported for the automatic installer.

LG Nitro HD

I found the manual download page, and the stable build for my phone, now I just need to figure out how to flash it...

why would i want to void my phones warranty just to root my phone

Because you can un-root it whenever you want and your warranty is no longer void.

Your carrier doesn't spy on your phone. Do what you want to it but know the risks. Also, rooting + Cyanogenmod is probably the best thing on Android since the HTC Dream came out.

I've never heard of the LG Nitro HD. I've seen a lot of phones too.

Look up a guide, you need to unlock your bootloader, Root, Install a recovery, Wipe data and flash CM.

The Moto G was announced today, a mid-range phone for $179.99 USD! Roughly the same specs as the Galaxy Nexus. Amazing deal.

Also, users with the 2012/2013 Nexus 7 or Nexus 10 will now receive the OFFICIAL OTA today, go check for updates!

I personally think that the HTC One is an excellent phone, do any of you own it?
