Neither does it have a microSD card slot, |abbr_nfc| or other fancy new stuff that people seem to need. -| - -CyanogenMod -___________ -| The alternative firmware for some mobile devices |cyanogenmod| is available for free and offers a community driven development branch of the Android kernel, without the Google and mobile vendor bloat. -| Have a look: Maybe your phone is amongst the |cyanogenmod_supported_devices|? -| Not all vendors allow flashing other firmwares though. Some prevent this completely (watch |28c3_doctorow| for an in-depth comment on this), others let you do it by voiding your warranty, yet others just let you do it, because they are awesome. -| All |cyanogenmod| capable devices have development codenames. For the |htc_one_s| this is "|cyanogenmod_ville|". -| Each device offers a |cyanogenmod_ville_release_channel| (with stable releases) and a |cyanogenmod_ville_development_channel| (with nightly builds for the adventurous and daring). -| An |cyanogenmod_ville_install| explains how to get |cyanogenmod| on your device. -| - -F-Droid -_______ -| |f-droid| is an alternative app store to |google_play|.

Some are directly available through |f-droid|, others only through their own |guardian_project_repository|. This is a collection of the currently available projects: - -* |guardian_project_chatsecure| - A free and open source messaging app that features |otr| encryption over |abbr_xmpp| -* |guardian_project_orbot| - A free |abbr_proxy| app that empowers other apps to use the internet more securely -* |guardian_project_camerav| - The easiest way to capture and share verifiable photos and video proof on a smartphone or tablet, all the while keeping it entirely secure and private -* |guardian_project_obscuracam| - A photo and video app for Android that keeps certain information private. -* |guardian_project_pixelknot| - An Android application that allows users to hide short text-based messages in photographs and share them across trusted channels. - -Conclusion -__________ -Yay!
