Verizon dropped support for Galaxy S3 long before Samsung officially did. But you’d surprised to know that the device is still kicking with development support from third-party developer teams like CyanogenMod.

Verizon Galaxy S3 just gained official CM14.1 nightly builds. Meaning, your 4-year old device can still rock the latest and greatest of Android with some added features from the CyanogenMod stable.

CM14.1 is an Android 7.1 Nougat based AOSP ROM developed and maintained by CyanogenMod — the most popular custom ROM for Android devices.

This is an official release of CM14.1 for Verizon Galaxy S3. However, this is a nightly release and doesn’t have all of the CyanogenMod specific functions like CM Theme Manager working yet. You might have to wait a bit more if these functions are important for you.

Check all details about the ROM below, along with downloads and installation instructions.
