New devices with CM9 nightlies

| Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 | WiFi and I/O editions |
| Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 | SGH-T859 (T-Mobile) |

| ASUS Transformer | TF101 |
| ASUS Transformer Prime | TF201 |
More devices were expected to join the list later.
What a nightly is
Nightly builds show where the project currently stands. Some may be stable and others not, so flashing one is at the user’s own risk. The author suggested reading the comments on each build before downloading, since early commenters usually list problems. These comments appear in the ROM manager app and on the project site.
Learning more
For questions about rooting or flashing, the author pointed to community forums, which have guides for nearly anything. This page does not link to downloads, and the project is no longer active.
Frequently asked questions
Were the builds stable?
Not necessarily. Some could be stable, and others were not.
Why read comments first?
Early users tend to report problems quickly, which helps you judge a build.
Is CyanogenMod still around?
The project in this form is no longer developed, so treat this as history.
