ive used nexus 4 and 5 and 6 running CM all the time , i cant use ANY android phone without using CM as daily driver , i used to flash the nightly builds because they are were very stable and i didn't face any problem at all
ive used A lot of ROMs based on CM and i cant find a Very stable one , the stable CM is the clean official cm rom , i dont care about the extra features that cm based roms provide because i like to stay clean and stock , i dont even use any custom kernel , i use Pure CM builds
but these days ive noticed something weird , something that made me Rethink about using CM rom , yes i was a blind all the time !
Cyanogenmod has gone bad ... very bad actually in latest days whatever you use a Nightly or snapshot builds
havent you noticed that your device become Laggy and buggy the most of the time ? Long booting time ? heat ? battery drain ? maybe something else i didn't notice ?
yes im talking about our beautiful nexus 6 , it supposed to be an High end phone but unfortunately we cant feel this by using CM roms anymore and I DONT KNOW WHY !
if u dont belive me just try an AOSP build right now ... yes its much much faster and stable than CM by miles !
now i can say that i have a high end device but like i said that i,ve been blind
i just made this topic to make people who use CM roms or CM based roms rethink about using it
AOSP is much better than CM atm and you can try and judge
sorry for my bad english and i hope that i helped :good:
snapshot is very stable build for my n6 using cm kernel or hellsCore kernel i didnt have lag or battery issues but nightly is different its not stable and yes there are some lag , i love cm

I am sorry to hear you are having problems with CM13 on your Nexus 6. I find CM13 runs great on my Nexus 6. I have not experienced any of the issues you have identified. I am running the nightlies and its been great for me.
thanks for your issue
Never had issues with cm on n6. But again I do clean installs on major updates.

Problem with your hyperlink
Dont feel bad. There have been bugs in CM that have not been fixed in years and it also part of the reason the last OEM cut ties with them.It is also the reason many have stopped using them for source changes.
I would give a few roms a shot that are based on AOSP and not CM.
I use both (generally between Pure Nexus and Temasek's CM builds) and I'd put their performance as equal. Theming is the biggest difference. At this point CMTE can't compare to layers when it comes to theming completely and with versatility. Arcus looks promising for improving CMTE but there's not many yet who've made good use of it.

I agree with you.
Biggest thing with the whole cmte fanboy, layers fanboy crap and the biggest thing people seem to NEVER talk about is longevity.
Layers being native, should always work. You can't count on the cygyn team to ALWAYS be able to find a way to make the theme engine work.
I've been using MIUI 8 for about a week now, and it's clear to me by now that MIUI hate notifications. that ain't no setting that I haven't tried (turned MIUI energy management on and off, added apps to it's whitelist when it was on, locked the process in the process screen, etc.) but still, there is no app that delivers all notifications, and the few that they actually deliver are usually pretty late. is there a way to fix this? or should I give up on MIUI 8 entirely?

the problem is that I'm already coming from an AOSP based ROM - dirty unicorns, to be precise. but that ROM was somehow too heavy, or maybe not properly optimized. it was too slow for some reason. which one are you using?

I've faced the same issue. Looks like MIUI somehow removes the app from memory for the sake of saving battery. Switched to RR now but I'd still switch to MIUI for camera's sake, this is something custom ROMs still lack. MIUI's camera is just easy and has some good features.
I have a developer [MENTION=376022]Mandy $ingh who is willing to make cm 13 based rom for the samsung j7 (SM-J700T1) MODEL.
I'm asking for donations for Mandy $ingh for his hard work. please and thank you
1. me = $20 with Paypal
2. Nillerz = $15 with Bitcoins
TOTAL SO FAR
$35
Is this just where we pledge? I'll pledge 15 dollars for Cyanogenmod if it's ever made, I can pay in Bitcoins.

i have a J700T. how hard is it to learn how to port and develop cm.
The main issues that we'll have will most likely be camera and Bluetooth. The exynos processor doesn't seem to jive well with CM.
Believe me, I would like CM as well but unfortunately it will be somewhat buggy and this particular device isn't "bringing tha boys to the yard" as far as development goes. Don't get me wrong, I think this device is pretty awesome and had some high hopes for development but alas, we are stuck with tweaked touchwhiz roms. Cm 14 was even ported but lots of bugs like bluetooth, display, audio, etc.
Not trying to crush any dreams here, just being realistic.
However, once a Nougat touchwhiz rom leaks (should be in a few weeks) a port is possible. A good note 7 port (no bugs) would be awesome.

The Bluetooth is a problem to me I rarely use it. And the camera cant we just find a camera app from the play store that will be capable with the cm based Rom. But I'm not complaining at all I'm just putting my w sense in.
for some, no bluetooth is a big issue. the camera issue is (maybe) easy to workaround because of other camera apps, unless it's the system (not the camera app) that's causing the camera not to work.

Hey all!
On the latest DU, they removed off screen gestures (menu where you can choose what the gestures do like open an app or switch on the flashlight) and they don't want to add them back in again. This could then be used by a lot of people who would like to use DU but can't really live without the off screen gestures.
I wanted to know if there is a dev out there that can help me integrate this back in since I don't have enough knowledge ^^ Or if there is a commit out there that can help, it would be perfect
Thanks for those who can help!!
Why don't you use a different ROM? Codename Phoenix and CandyRom are good. CrDroid and AOKP are pretty good as well. Adding your own features to a custom ROM doesn't seem like a practical solution because you will need to add the features again and again every time the ROM is updated. I like DU but I haven't been at all impressed with it on the OP5. There are definitely better ROMs.

The idea is to use a ROM that is based on AOSP, and has a Gerrit site that it regularly updated
Adding the custom stuff can be made only once but indeed there can be some merge issues with upstream...
I'll check the roms that you suggested, I'm currently on Phoenix but closed source (and I don't like that) and was thinking about omnirom (based on AOSP but don't really like the menus and all).

First of all I would like to thank all the great devs that keep supporting this phone.
But I miss a really bugless ROM. ROMs with 3.18 kernel were almost perfect, but they aren't developed anymore. 4.9 kernel is great too, but it has some annoying (for me at least) limitations. Miui camera doesn't work properly and it's a pity because it's the only app (as far as I know) that can use both sensors at the same time. Nhappyman's camera module isn't working (no smooth videos and no long exposure).
Mtp and vibration aren't working in TWRP custom recovery.
Is there any developer that can build an updated ROM based on 3.18 kernel? I bought a Mi A1 for dual-camera setup and I would like to use his full potential with MIUI camera AND GCam. At the moment it's possible only on 3.18 kernel so I'm wondering if there is any "brave" Dev who wants to go that way. I think that many other users like me are waiting for that. Am I wrong?
You're right, I agree with you. Of course it is quite an achievement for the development of this device, and I actually enjoy the new kernel and it's securities advancements, but it is not stable compared to the officially supported 3.18. For example, I have a Quick charger but can't use it properly because it's not working on kernel 4.9, at least right know.
Not being ungrateful btw, I totally support the continuous development of 4.9, and I hope someday it will be just as stable as 3.18.

You can use LR v10.0.3 it's still based on 3.18 based kernel. Or go for Revenge OS, it's also 3.18 based
I'm not going to say anything about TWRP installer that was never supported officially by TeamWin or quick chargers that aren't even supported by our device, but I have a few things that I want to say specifically about MIUI Camera (and the reason why I'm always acting cocky when someone talks about it).
Supporting it was and always will be too much of a hassle for developers. It's not because "damn devs don't care about meme camera", but rather because whatever Xiaomi does for their camera features is very far from perfect, tends to break very often and also introduces random issues with third-party camera apps.
Recent switch to the open source camera HAL helped us to get a much more stable and reliable base (as well as fixing some very annoying issues we had before) but it also was the final nail in the coffin of MIUI Camera as it relies on undocumented proprietary features that we can't implement in any possible way.
I know that it can be hard for someone to cope with the lack of some well advertised marketing feature essential camera functionality, but we also have to go to concessions to make our support continuous and more future-proof.

Totally understandable, it's not rocket science to know that exclusive "features", which is closed source, is really hard (mostly impossible) to port to custom development. Many devices suffers from this, like the implementation on Moto display on Motorola phones, for example. I'm not a developer myself, but I know a thing or two with my experience as android enthusiast, and for development to work it means you're gonna let some "goodies" go in favor of it.
Thanks for your work btw!

Really? Nice, have been looking for an updated pie rom running 3.18
Now that Flex gave us the possibility to use miui camera on 4.9 kernel there's no need of 3.18 anymore (IMHO). To use MTP on TWRP we can boot it from PC and it will work.
Touch screen misbehaves with 4.x kernel
My mi a1 touch screen misbehaves with 4.9 kernel.
So i have to stick with the stock rom even i want to use a custom rom.
Am i the only person facing to this kind of problem?
Same problem here guys, anyone know how to fix this? :crying:

Me too, in fact my screen doesn't work at all with 4.9 kernel. It was a cheap replacement from aliexpress. I was hoping to find some updated ROMs with 3.18 but I will have to just stick to stock. It's a shame.
