CyanogenMod 7.2 - Some Noticeable Changes From Stock Android

A few days ago, I've flashed my Samsung galaxy ace GT-5830 and now I'm  running the CyanogenMod 7.2.0 - RC0-GalaxyAce-KANG. This CyanogenMod version includes Android version 2.3.7. There are many later versions of CyanogenMod available for Ace(CM 9) which includes android 4 but the fact is that there's no stable version I found which got all the phone functions working. The main reason to flash my device to CyanogenMod is that it slowed down much before while running the stock android version. The RAM usage was on its peak (above 230MB using on running no apps) and even simple phone features took long time to load.   


So far after this upgrade, I must say I am very happy about the performance of this software except for the battery draining tendency. The stock ROM was far better than this one in case of battery backup. The main intention was to speed-up my phone which is done perfectly and it works almost perfect without any lag even if I'm using Go Launcher themes and live wallpapers. 

  • Some unnecessary apps including maps are deleted from this version so that we've feed that much of internal memory.
  • Average RAM usage is 170MB/270MB which is better than older one.
  • The camera application is really nice. You can set the volume button as a hardware capture button which is very nice.
  • However the contact application misses the groups feature which you can create groups from your contacts. The messaging app also sucks but I use Go SMS Pro running smooth.
  • Pre-installed DSP manger and Volume has increased significantly. However distortion occurs when extreme effect is selected.
