The biggest difference between Android smartphones and iPhones is freedom — Android users have it and iPhone users are stuck in Apple’s walled garden.

While iOS users might be content changing the backgrounds on their phones, Android allows for total customization and control over how your phone looks and works.

Here are the coolest ways to change the look of your Android phone.

Install CyanogenMod

This after-market firmware is based on Android, but offers a few features not found in the standard Android software. It offers support for various themes, the ability to browse the web in incognito mode, and the ability to use gestures on the lock screen.
