What is the consensus on the CM12 nightly builds?
Is anybody using them?
I just got my 9506 and all I really want out of a rom is the stock look, like Nexus or GPE, which CM provides.
Arters version of Temasek CM12 is much better then official cm12

What are the main differences? Is it suitable for use as a daily driver?

If you are hard gamer, I recommend you to use official CM12. I've tested both and seems like theres serious graphical issues in arters cm12. But both are good for daily use, battery life is little bit worse in arter cm12. Theres not much differencies.
The consensus is that Temasek rom built by @arter97 is the BEST rom for our device, even better than touchwiz rom, and of course better than official cm builds.

I do not agree the official cm12 by the time will be better because of it's easier to handle, flash and has OTA update.
Can someone please explain what the main differences/goals are between the three major ROMS are? (official cm12, solk2, and arter97/temasek) Looking around the forum, I can't seem to find anything closer than "X is better than Y" and "The difference is in tuning" and other vague things like that

Yeah and they have better support to rom. I mean they update it every day etc..
Arters rom is based on temasek moded version of CM12 - it does include a bit more than the barebone CM12. It is rock solid and by far good enough to be a daily driver. I found it to be great with games (as a reply to another post here). Played Star Wars Kotor on it for hours, it ran perfectly and did not get hot.
The "official" CM12 I have not tried, but it seems to be lagging a lot behind arter. They had, or still have?, problems with wifi/mobile nettwork and other stuff. Does not seem to be a daily driver yet.
I just don't get why you guyz think that easy flashing and faster releases is a positive feature in terms of rom stability.
I'm quite happy with updates arter releases, they are stable and battery friendly, besides it have all goodies from temasek rom.
Don't wanna be a flashaholic!
I don't want to be a flashaholic either. Maybe when official gets a snapshot version, or milestone, but that may never happen looking at the history.
I was using CM11 on the previous 9505 but everything changed with Lollipop.

I was looking very skeptic when it was available, but I was amazed how stable and fast it was.
Started with v1, I`m using arters build and had ZERO accidental restart, (FC, camera can`t connect and etc... ) or any bug that affects daily usage. I came from M12 i9300 CM11.
Does casting work? Moving apps to SD?
Casting works fine with Chromecast. Accessible from quick pulldown panel.
Move 2 sd is broken, it`s CM bug.

Gotcha, the rom I was using with the 9505 did not have cast working and SD moving was also broken.
For me official cm12 is the best and always up to date. I tried mokeedev, arter, solk and back to official
I think I will try official cm12 when there is a at least a snapshot build.
What's broken in it at the moment, anything? What camera do you use?
I update daily with last nightly. For my usages nothing's broken. Very stable. I use Google camera.
Do you have a chrome cast? Can you connect to it?

I'll admit I get completely baffled with all the S4 variants.
1. Put simply is there a UK GT-I9505 Cyanogenmod 12 or 12.1 nightly?
2. What's device name to Cyanogenmod call it?
My GT-I9505 is from Everything Everywhere in the UK (who still haven't released lollipop).
Thanks
1. Yes.
2. jfltexx.
Perfect. Thanks.
jfltexx Snapshots stopped in February 2014 with M3. Which is weird as my LG G Pad last got a stable build in November 2014 with M12. That's a bit worrying if I want a stable/reliable CM build.
p.s. Stable being used generally. I'm aware CM used to use Stable as a specific naming convention.

Nightlies are more stable then the snapshots. So don't let naming misguide you. Just go for either the nightlies or the one in my signature. Ps go for the 12.1 branch, more stable then the 12 branch.
Really?
I thought the whole point was Stables were signed off?
Nightlies also updated daily which is bewildering. I just want a stable Android 5.1 release really. I'm not especially interested in the "cutting edge".

The thing is: a rom may work perfectly for me and for you it gives various problems.
Bugs vary from device to device.
For instance, most roms I have tried on my device have worked perfectly (Thankfully).
But I saw other people who reported various issues with the same rom.
You will have to try for yourself.
the GPE rom by Danvdh is one of the most stable roms I have tried. It's still 5.0.1 though.
Resurrection Remix with Alucard kernel also works fine for me.
You might also try FlexOS. People say it has nice battery life.
AICP was also stable for me.
SaberMod CM12.1 stable too. But haven't tried it for some time.
They are all based on CM12.1.
You might also try the official CM12.1 Optimized build.

I'd rather stick with a stable ROM that's been signed off and had some quality control applied to it for that very reason. I prefer to just install a ROM and be done with it (maybe upgrading every now and again OTA) .
Like you say otherwise you could be fine (probably) or maybe not.

Interesting idea. Is this much more optimised for the S4 than the regular CM12.1 nightlies?
Being a fork isn't there a chance it'll get out of sync with the CM12.1 nightlies?

The optimized builds are developed by the same developer as the nightlies for the s4. So they pretty much go head to head.
Oh nice thanks.
Do the latest CM12.1 nightlies have the ability to turn the S4 legacy Menu button into an App-Switcher button? It's irritating having to hold down the Home button to switch between apps.
Lastly, is there anything major left in CM11 not in CM12.1 now? Is there a list somewhere?
I understand missing features is one of the reasons a CM12.1 Snapshot hasn't been released.

Why are the optimized builds so far behind? The latest CM12.1 optimized build for the S4 looks to be 2015-06-16 but there's a regular CM12.1 nightly dated 2015-06-25.

The whole lollipop update was a mess, with memory leaks and stuff, try out all these new 6.0(.1) roms, they run much faster and smoother than any lollipop rom could!

Hi.
There is the first unofficial CM13:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-nexus-7-t3279938
I am trying its. It is good with fix in second post.
I tried cm13 and it was sluggish. Running cm11 and it is a lot better.

I flashed CM13 and the 6.0 pico gapps. Now when I start, I get hundreds of "Unfortunately, X has stopped".
Any ideas?
The n5110, n5100 and n5120 builds are now all released here
New screenshots from a clean no gapps install, showing some built in features.
I'm in
UPD: Ooops! I've got n5100 only.
I might give it a shot, I have an old GT N 5110 lying around.
yup, sorry, N5110 only.
According to your attachment you have the exact same model as me.

yes VGchat you are 'in', have PM'd you and I will get you instructions and a dropbox link to download later tonight.
I should also say that this rom is basically CM13 with RR built on top and is a stable as CM13 currently is on N5110 (that is VERY stable).
So far I just got it installed. I notice it's still CM warm, it's a tad toasty compared to CivZ rom I had on previously and compared to other CM13 roms for this device, the heat trend continues on the underside. Which cpu governer would work best with this tablet for battery life/performance/stability?
Youtube seems to run perfectly.
Stylus support is detecting and interacting with the Stylus just fine.
There is a faint bit of static feedback now & then from Bejeweled Stars but it plays better than it did on CivZ rom. Less laggy.
Overall the UI is pretty fast & smooth.
There doesn't seem to be any GPS issues. One Weather can find my location just fine.
I'm not sure how demanding a game this one is but Giant Boulder of Death pushes this tablet to it's limits almost. Noticeable input lag sometimes and music lag is definitely noticeable.
There is a issue with video recording. It will not do it, instead it spits out an error about it as you mentioned in your PM. However it can take pictures.
Thanks VGchat for your comments.
Video recording not working comes from CM13 I'm sure. Everything else sounds pretty good.
Unkilled runs pretty well in game for me, though cutscenes are a little stuttery.
The heat issue I'm hoping is just from initial setup, cataloguing media files etc. and will have settled in a couple of days.
I don't know what governor would be recommended, it seems to use pegasusq by default.
I will try Boeffla kernel over the weekend, which should work as it does with equivalent CM13.
I'll look to making a release thread at the start of next week, if anyone wants it before just PM me.
Maybe you'll be able to fix the camera issue with this thread, GL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/fix-bug-fixing-bugs-porting-custom-roms-t2909599
N5100 version
I have also made an N5100 version and passed to A_sh_ to see if it runs...
I have also confirmed by restoring my backup that the video problem originates in CM13.
If you need a N5100 tester you can count me in. Running RR on my bacon
So long as you keep Boeffla seperate from the rom, I'll be fine with that. I never did care much for Boeffla Kernel on my Note 8. (I tried it on the civz rom and the other popular cm13 rom, with less then impressive results). I think the Kernel Adiutor is working pretty good for this rom.

Depends on what RR team do and whether an official / unofficial CM14 is made for Note 8.0 or whether MM is the end of the line...
I'm sure RR will continue with N as they have been going since ICS.
If I still have the tablet, want to keep updating it and am able to continue, then I will.

I have an N5120 build also sitting waiting on AFH for a beta tester to come along and gobble it up..

It would be great if you update it to N, but I was simply talking about CM 13,when new nightly are released.
Ah! I initially thought you meant nightlies then thought nah, gotta be N you're enquiring about...
Yes to nightlies - the beta testers have had 2 nightlies so far.
I can usually find time to make 2 builds per night every couple of nights. Builds take my laptop around an hour each (8 core i7..).
Current builds with testers, which will hopefully be released, were synced at about 7pm uk time on the 20th and include all CM changes up to "you are now a developer" which I felt was the ideal point to call it a release ????
https://www.cmxlog.com/13/n5110
If you want access now just follow me on android file host and I will add you to the beta group.
Thanks for your answer. Of course I didn't think you could update the Rom every CM nightly, I was just wondering if it's easy for you to update sometimes without having to work too much. I can't be a beta tester at the moment, but I'm thinking of trying a new Rom sooner or later: I'm still using a kitkat firmware and, after some years, I feel a little bored
You don't grab specifically by nightlies, just the latest on what is there for both CM and RR. To grab and make a new build it is just 3 command line commands. Once you are setup it is very easy.
I'd like to use CM12.1 (marshmallow) but I realize there still are no stable release? Why? Is it not good enough yet?
I've had a pretty bad experience with CM on my old Galaxy S4 so I'm a little afraid to remove the stock recovery and ROM from my Moto X Play. I want to make sure that it's bug free (or as buggy as stock) and suitable for day use. In other words I want to flash it and know it's fully reliable. Given the fact that there are only nightly releases, are they reliable enough for this?
Thanks

I can't vouch for the latest releases, as my xplay has been broken for like 3 months now, but being a nightly doesn't inherently make it unstable. Stable builds are usually relabeled nightlies. I say give it a shot. You can always go back to stock if you don't like it, unless you're speaking about voiding warranty

Oh! I thought nightlies were unstable releases. So before yours broke, you had a good experience? No problem with camera or other stuff?
It's not really a question of warranty but rather just not having any issues when I need it to work. For instance, with my Galaxy S4, the camera kept crashing while I was out with my kids so I lost time trying to make it work when I wanted to take a picture. That's the kind of thing I wouldn't want happening just because I got another ROM.
Indeed I did (have a good experience). If you're every unsure of a nightly, head to the thread. You'll usually find one or several people commenting if it's no good.

Yeah I had a look (I just realized I was talking about CM13 not 12.1) but given there are now 205 pages I thought I'd ask about the nightly situation in a different thread.
I think I may try it and restore it from the ROM available in the forum.
Oh and I keep wondering, given Motorola never actually released the ROM, how can someone make it available?
I m using nightly for like 3 months ......and I can say nightly is far better than stock if you are looking for customization and speed. I recently tried to go back to stock 6.0.1 but that experience is so "LAGGY" that I again return back to CM.I can say that CM nightly build working best for me with my requirements(like gaming and also photography and editing and HEAVY Customization and many more ) . and about custom recovery,it's a must have tool I suggest as with that I can return back to my previous builds. SO i recommend to go for NEW CM build,but in the end it's upto you.
and if u r still fearing about NIGHTLIES then flash the custom recovery(twrp) and then make backup of whole stock system and then do whatever U want to.
Btw this is the wrong forum to discuss things

If you're looking for a 7.1 ROM, try out dirty unicorns. They are not on XDA, but they have a Google+ page and a website with downloads for Clark. It is one of the most stable ROMS right know for this device. If you wanna stay on marshmallow I'm pretty sure Tru pure is still a great ROM, and you probably wouldn't wanna change.
I've gone back to stock with this device as every custom rom that I have tried has had some issue or another, making them unstable. The Brazilian stock nougat TWRP backup that is available on this forum is working surprisingly well on my device, an XT1572 being used in the UK.

None of the ROM'S do gestures as well as the stock gestures work, such as waving hand to wake the phone..etc..but they still work fairly well. Dirty unicorns also has the other moto gestures such as flip the phone to silence among others.
+1 for dirty unicorns. I'm running on their latest official release and its pretty good.
The latest build of stock 6.0.1 + Root + Xposed.
Stock... pure, untouched stock is the best for stability and speed, no doubt about it.
If you mean what CUSTOM rom is best, BrokenOS for MM or Dirty Unicorns for Nougat... Both are good, but neither one is as stable as stock.
