OnePlus 2 will soon receive official CyanogenMod ROM support

The official CyanogenMod support for OnePlus 2 has been reportedly listed via GitHub, and spotted by Reddit users. The report lists both CyanogenMod 12.1 and CyanogenMod 13 builds for the OnePlus 2.

However, users cannot download these builds as of now but is expected to be available soon. Users will have the option to flash between two versions which is either Android 5.1.1 Lollipop or Android 6.0 Marshmallow. One will have to root their phone and the latest custom recovery, but will have to be careful as this might compromise the device’s warranty.

With the OnePlus 2, the company has built a device that competes with the likes of the Google Nexus 6P and others. In fact, the superior specs sheet at a comparatively lower price gives it an edge over the other flagships.

Design-wise, the metal-frame design makes it look premium. It sports a 5.5-inch 1080p display. As promised, the smartphone also comes with a fingerprint scanner and USB Type-C port. The fingerprint scanner is faster than the iPhone TouchID and lets you save up to five fingerprints, says OnePlus.

On the camera front, it comes with a 13-megapixel snapper. It also gets a new camera and a new solution that allows you to take 50MP photos and there’s also the slow motion mode. It comes powered by Snapdragon 810 coupled with 4GB of RAM and houses a 3,300mAh battery.
