Is having a system maintained by a group of devs on their spare time safe?
From a security standpoint,
Does Cyanogenmod provide any advantage compared to the default ROM?

Just disable all build-in botnet and it's fine. Also it's a blessing if you have an old phone. I'm using 6.0.1 nightlies on my 4 year old S3 and it's perfect. Especially battery life.
Would I use it if I have top of the line nexus? fuck no.

>Best FB Wrapper
Dev is extremely kind to requests and follows
the comment section on the daily.
I dont use the actual facebook app due it it's bugginess and possible security issues.
App is less than 3Mb and the best ive used.

Also, phonograph (music player)

And superbeam ( wifi file transfer [really good])

>>54516348
Has phonograph improved lots?
Uninstalled it after a few days use during initial release days.

Dev is really nice guy, indeed. Facebook tried to take his app down because they are a bunch of idiots who are doing damage control because people are moving to his app.
>>54516281
Can you explain the bot-net thing and show us how to disable?
>>54516376
It is stable enough. Doesn't have as many features as the other apps though.
>>54516399
Settings> Privacy> third option> disable metrics collection or something like that
>>54516399
I think if was on installgentoo. just uncheck sent reports to cyanogen in options and disable build-in cyanogen apps

The real botnet btw is gapps. Install micro-g as you see on pic here
>>54516308
It makes the phone 3x faster. Honestly, google services is the worst ram and battery hog.
Im running cm13 on a moto g 2014 and ot flies now.
>Best mobile Pentesting App.
I believe it requires Busybox as well,
But its a must have if your into security.

>>54516425
Thank you :)
>>54516439
How would you disable c-apps?
>>54516473
Do you have access to the play store via micro-g? or are you limited to fdroid and such
>>54516439
>>54516476
Cyanogenmod apps are good.
Cyanogen apps are not.
Also, take advantage of cm's privacy guard. You can manage more permissions than stock android enables you to like disabling wifi usage in an app.
>>54516476
>How would you disable c-apps?
find it in the app list and press disable? I'm not saying it's botnet I'm saying some are unnecessary for me like global equalized that fucks up sounds, or theme chooser and others
>>54516473
Honestly I'm using full gapps package and prefer to disable shit I don't use. I'd rather be able to turn it on later if I'll need it
>>54516508
There are no workarounds only for :
- Google app ( + google now on tap)
- Google Keep
For every other app and service google offers there is a workaround. Play store works bit needs to be installed in system/privapp to work properly.
Hangouts needs a special version which I can provide you if you want. Inbox by gmail works. Youtube works. Chrome works.

Very nice Facebook Messenger alternative
Speaking of Xposed.
Lets list some modules.
Firstly, a module manager.
The stock app that revo uploaded a while back doesnt really cut the UI beautifulness. But works.
On the other hand, theres a material one that's
just as amazing and looks great.
Search "[BETA] Material Design Xposed Installer" on google.
Modules that I currently have:
Greenify -
>Battery Saving module linked to official app
Snapprefs -
>Saving Snapchat pictures ;)
>Sharing photo's from gallery as if you took them
>Custom PNG filters and stickers
>Note: you'll have to stay on an older version of snapchat accesible through apk mirror's site until the dev updates the apps

cyanogen is pretty secure in itself.
what you want to do is not install gapps. or go with very minimal install with no google play services.
also enable the privacy manager. but i think nowadays its enabled by default.
basically it stops any app from using the android api (location, access to files, accounts, camera etc) unless you allow it.
>>54516256
>>54516276
how save it is to use the cleaner on cyanogen device? I have made a data wipe in like 2+ years
>>54516029
Stock on my H811 is months behind in security updates.
>>54516667
do you need to have whatsapp installed to use the whatsapp plugin?
>>54517878
Very Safe. It old clears up cache and corpses.
