Cyanogen Hugs Truecaller and OnePlus
The Cyanogen team has hugged two important players in the mobile domain: TrueCaller and OnePlus. The first hug allows the next update of Cyanogen mobile operating system to feature a dialer with Truecaller facility included. The 'advance dialer' that will be default in the upcoming versions of Cyanogenmod will show you all the caller information even when it's from a number not in your contact list. Truecaller has been a global leader in this technology that <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/is-facebook-developing-truecaller-killer-app.79694">Is Facebook Developing TrueCaller Killer App?</a> and others have tried to copy.

As of now, no information is available on which of the upcoming upgrade will bring this facility to the users. According to PCMag, if you do not want to have this feature activated, you can always go back to the regular dialer by uninstalling Truecaller application. Truecaller has also shook hands with Microsoft to preinstall apps like Bing, Skype, OneDrive, MS Outlook and MS Office on Cyanogen OS.
The second and very important update is for the OnePlus One phone users in India. OnePlus and Cyanogen have resolved all the disputes; especially the 'exclusivity clause' that <a href="https://www.crazyengineers.com/threads/micromax-cyanogen-deal-in-india-proves-to-be-a-bitter-pill-for-oneplus-customers.77519">Micromax & Cyanogen Deal In India Proves To Be A Bitter Pill For OnePlus Customers</a>. The clause prevented OnePlus One from rolling out firmware CyanogenMod firmware upgrade to OPO users. Vikas Agarwal, GM at OnePlus India informed that all the OnePlus One users in India will now be able to receive OTA (Over The Air) updates from Cyanogen just like any other OPO users worldwide.
Let's hope these two hugs will push Cyanogen to a better adoption. What's your say?
