Sorry for not writting new posts but i had a lot of work to do. Today i am back with great news for my friends who owned alcatel 908.












 So the good news are only for those who have upgraded their phones (alcatel 908) to gingerbeard. CM7 IS HERE FOR THEM.

What is CyanogenMod?

 CyanogenMod is an open source replacement for smart phones and tablet computers based on the Android mobile operating system. It offers features and options not found in the official firmware distributed by vendors of these devices.
Features supported by CyanogenMod include native theming support, FLAC audio codec support, a large Access Point Name list, an OpenVPN client, an enhanced reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, CPU overclocking and other performance enhancements, soft buttons and other "tablet tweaks", toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS), app permissions management, as well as other interface enhancements. According to its developers, CyanogenMod does not contain spyware or bloatware. CyanogenMod is also stated to increase performance and reliability compared with official firmware releases.
CyanogenMod is developed as free and open source software based on the official releases of Android by Google, with added original and third-party code.

Although only a subset of total CyanogenMod users elect to report their use of the firmware, as of 31 December 2012, CyanogenMod has recorded over 3.6 million active installs on a multitude of devices.
