hey guys it's Joe the Android guy with pocketnow.com cyanogenmod 10.1 nightly was just released for the samsung galaxy s3 what does it look like how does it perform is it stable enough for you to run is your daily driver let's go find out here's our samsung galaxy s3 we've routed it we've installed clockworkmod recovery we've installed rom manager and now we have finally flashed cm10 nightly we've got our nice little cyanogenmod statistics up at the top that we can opt out of if we want we also have our nice little jelly bean quick settings here we can go into the the deeper settings now I've already gone into about phone and turned on developer mode so we could turn on some extra fun stuff but you can see that this is the CM 10.1 from December 17 that nightly this is the first 10.1 nightly that that they released for this phone at least that I know of and that's been stable enough to actually run and show you a video they've had previous versions out that were just cm10 which were not the four point two point one as you can see here just so you know this is the GT i 9300 version of the galaxy s3 there are Knightley's for a few if not most of the other ones out there already so what can we do with this well other than what we were just showing you here you of course got all of the trebuchet features nice and quick very responsive come back into settings you've got your cyanogenmod settings you can do in here including theming I don't have any themes installed but we could very quickly and easily install a theme on it we go back we can change our lock screen up of course lock screen has some cm10 specific things to it that have kind of been duplicated replaced with all of the new stuff that's in of course jellybean 4.2 let's look at launcher we can come into our home set however many number of homescreens that we want all this fun stuff transition effect I always like these let's go ahead and do let's do something fun shall we let's do a spin and when we go back home it's going to take just a minute because it has to relaunch the launcher but now you can see that it kind of rotates things in and out neat little effect like that very smooth very fluid something that you don't see every day back into settings again and let's see what else we can do with cyanogenmod got some advanced settings in here that we can get into enable hsdpa upa or hsdpa only UMTS only so some interesting neat things we can do there haptic feedback where we can modify the vibrator intensity we'll leave it at fifty percent which is the default go on back profiles or something that I love with cyanogenmod roms if you've got different settings for home or work or even car you can set those up and then quickly toggle between them just by pressing and holding your power button and choosing your profile there or you can do it with NFC if you've got NFC tags pre-programmed to do that of course in performance you've got options in here you can go in and change all kinds of stuff this is using that Pegasus q governor but you can change that to any of the others we just ran an article about different governors and how they affect your speed over pocketnow.com if you missed that head over to pocketnow.com you'll want to make sure that you read up on that we can also then change the minimum of maximum once that is enabled in the rom this version it is not so it's pre configured to minimum and maximum currently it's bouncing between 200 and 400 megahertz with that Pegasus cube governor in there so overall I've only had about 20 30 minutes to use this I haven't noticed any hang-ups anything that I would not expect out of a and nightly rom it's very stable it's very fast as you can see in there it does everything that I need it to and as far as I can tell there are no features that have not yet been implemented or aren't working I'm connected up to Wi-Fi I don't have a sim in right now just why I'm not getting that but as far as all of the reports go looks like everything works just the way you would expect it to so what do you think do you like what you're seeing here with CM 10.1 on the sgs3 if so give the video a big thumbs up if you have any questions or comments please head over to the article at pocketnow.com we'd like to keep the conversation going over there if at all possible if there's a feature that you like about cyanogenmod that we didn't show off here make sure you also note that in the comments over there showing off CM 10.1 on some of our favorite devices for pocket now I'm Joe Levi thanks for watching you
