The CyanogenMod team has made available for download a new set of builds of their custom Android software for various devices out there, namely CyanogenMod 10.1-M2, destined to provide more users with the possibility to enjoy the features of Android 4.2.2.

The new release comes roughly a month after the M1 builds arrived, and offers support for more devices than before, the team explains.

For those out of the loop, we should note that the M-series builds are meant to be usable, more stable releases that are destined for everyday use, and which pave the way to a final, stable build.

“With this release, we’d like to remind you all that while bug reports on nightlies will get summarily dismissed, we accept and encourage reports to be submitted against the M2 release,” the team notes in a blog post.

“Additionally, if you report a bug but fail to attach a log (logcat or adb bugreport), your report will be considered invalid, and closed. Even if your device bursts into flames: no attached log means it didn’t happen,” the team continues.

The new code was pushed to Github as ‘cm-10.1-M2,’ and is available for almost two dozen devices. Handsets and tablets receiving 10.1 nightlies but not supported in M2 yet are expected to be included in the list in future releases (such as Kindle Fire, Galaxy R and Motorola Devices).

At the moment, the new CyanogenMod 10.1-M2 builds are available for the entire series of Nexus handsets following Nexus S (Google Nexus Q steelhead included), as well as for Acer Iconia a700, Hardkernel Odroid-U2, LG Nitro HD (p930), LG Optimus LTE (su640) and LG Spectrum (vs920),

The release is available for handsets such as HTC One X (evita), HTC Incredible 4G LTE (fireball), HTC Evo 4G LTE (jewel), and HTC One S (ville) as well.

Samsung Galaxy S (captivatemtd, galaxysbmtd, galaxysmtd, epicmtd), Samsung Galaxy SII (i9100g, hercules, skyrocket), Samsung Galaxy SIII (US variants d2att, d2cri, d2mtr, d2spr, d2tmo, d2vzw), Samsung Note (quincytmo, quincyatt), Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (p3100, p3110), and Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (p5100, p5110) are also supported.
