Very exciting!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you using the official CM12.1?

Kinda surprising, thinking the team may have abandoned XSP as it is a bit "dated".
Anyone tried it yet?

we had it for maybe two months or even more, idk. I prefer stock because of fully working illumination bar, btw.

Read a few complaints that CM12 official is unstable...(??)
[Think it was scattered amongst the consolidated thread on UBL roms (temasek, aicp, etc) by theavengingtitan]

Been using it for a week now. No issues no lagging.. Fast.. Easy on battery.. All apps work. Its a keeper...(had just about given up on lollypop) not now
Sent from never never land.......

Dirty flashed OTA and now it lags. I guess every update should be a clean flash and that sucks, because all apps need to be settled up over and over again.

Well, mine lagged out after installation from option and my gapps is error. Then I flash the gapss but my root access was gone? So, how to root it? Because towel root can't do this. After all it works very smooth.

Are you all using stock cyanogen recovery or philz twrp ?
Sent from never never land

Nightly from today and yesterday is already optimized. You can use, no lag

no SUPERUSER in xperia sp CM12.1
there is no superuser mode built-in in it..

:crying: I install the omni room yesterday...
kitkat seems to have much more improvement and a new vision of google...
but the room is have many bugs (the worst think is the nonworking speaker sound "persistent silence".
hope that they can solve this ASAP.
ok I must update my last replay...
Now there is Omni 4.4 nightlight releases as in below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2516933
and also CM11 beta release :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2526090
both are suitable for use and many bugs has been solved...
you can try them ... "in your own risk"
or you can wait for official stable cm11, PA, OMNI... and flash them "on your own risk also:laugh:"
or if your are not interesting-in launching KITKAT asap ... wait for Samsung update... in which there is no dedicated near update day if there will be update..
with best
Roflol Samsung update on note 1? Ahahahah not before next life.
I tried the omni ROM on n7000 and OMG awesome. I love it. My phone used to be laggy but now I can open several applications without problem. The battery life is very much acceptable. Am still to nail any bug. Am still wondering whether I should update to the latest version.
Cannot find root though but won't bother as I already like it as is.
I do recommend it strongly.

I tried all CM 10.* than again stock 4.1.2 and now I use OmniROM 4.4
In CM 10.* and Omni I found one annoying bug with Video registrator programs. All ones that I tried don't record video. At start recording programs crashed. Often video camera don't work at all until reboot system.
For example DailyRoads Voyager...
Omni ROM
Many thanks to the team developing Omni ROM. For a nightly release, they seem to get better and better. Having tried most AOSP ROM's, my impressions are that it's really well sorted and though there are a few minor issues I'm comfortably using it as a daily driver. I don't mind that I have to reboot sometimes. It's far more stable and usable than most TW ROM's that have had 97 lock screens added and every button or theme known to man. These guys are real developers and are actually cutting code and really know what they are doing. Give it a try if you would like to see 4.4 on a Note.
One real caution though. Please, please, please read the instructions in the opening post. If you follow them, it will work. Please don't think you know more and try to do it yourself or your special way using whatever kernel you think best, as it won't end well.
thanks:laugh:

CM12 Nightlies - any good

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.

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.

Xperia Z2 CM 13.0 Unofficial

I was googling and I found this link
https://builds.hubdroid.com/cm13/sirius/
There's an unofficial build of CM 13.0 dated 20151212 for sirius on this website, I haven't made or tested this rom, just sharing it for those interested because I've seen people talking about cyanogenmod 13.0 made for the xperia z2 but not out to public, so is this one?
Better than if you test this build
I'd test it after I finish testing the cm 12.1 on my device because it has some weird issue of randomly rebooting on it's own but when im done with that I'd definitely test this
One thing I'm almost sure about is that this rom can't have a working camera since the camera blobs aren't even fully working yet so I wouldn't judge the rom for not having a working camera, if it doesn't
I'm gonna test it but i thought i'd share it so that if anyone that actually heard about this website (cuz I honestly haven't heard about it until now) and could fill in some info about it
It won't boot up
Hello everyone
Rom installation failed,something wrong with updater script anyone tried it?
Edit:maybe it is for a specific variant, i think for D6502
Mine D6503, anyone with D6502 tried it
format /data /cache and /system and then try to install
I tried it with multirom maybe that is the issue, i will try later as a normal installation
I'm already familiar with custom roms, i know i have to wipe everything
It won't boot. Tested setback times both fresh install and dirty install over cm12.1.

Best rom on this phone for STABILITY and SPEED?

Have been on true pure since day one... Great stability and speed. Can anyone recommend anything else though? Am looking for a reason to try something new.

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.

i am using AISP rom and it is working well so far. Fast and smooth so far with huge amount of apps in background, also phone is not overhearting
no bootlops, no crashes etc
Ok, I guess I should probably flash a stock rom image then... Where can I find an official link?

As someone who has tried them all, the treskmod omnirom by max tresk is by far the romkiller. It's the best period. Not on this forum. Google Fu it.
I preferred stock after trying a few AOSP ROMs about a week ago. The battery life and stability of stock alongside having a working FP scanner and the nice screen-off gestures were enough to keep me on stock. At least OnePlus's OS is very close to a stock Android experience.

A few of us would counter that tresk mod on this device operates smoother than stock. Gestures included, in built theming. And no fingerprint, but I don't ever use it anyways. I get 11 hrs sot.
Tresk Mod is pretty good and the in built kernel is really good. No need to use another one. There is also an official Dirty Unicorn Fajita built. Both you will not found on XDA....

I haven't tried many ROM's yet but I'm really liking Havoc. It's loaded with options and runs smoother than Stock. I actually really hate OOS which is why I finally decided to root and install something else after over 4 months on OOS. Most overrated phone OS in history.
