CyanogenMod tries to build a new, fresh "nightly" version every 24 hours for each of the devices it supports, which includes the most up-to-date changes to the source code, provided from all over the Internet. Of course, the nightly builds may also contain newly-introduced bugs, but hey- if you feel adventurous, you can help make CyanogenMod better by trying these experimental builds and reporting back bugs to the developers.

ROM OS Version: 5.1.x Lollipop
Version Information
Status: Nightly
I couldn't find a thread for the official nightlies, so here it is I guess. If there is an issue with this, mods delete. Just would be nice to have a spot to talk about the official nightlies.....unofficially.

I'm running 4/20 build with full stock gapps and have no issues so far.

4/21 Build, still no noticeable issues.
I think i am having this conversation with myself.. lol

I'm watching the thread. Want to flash CM12.1 but want to see how stable the builds are first. So any information is helpful.

I really haven't had any issues.. been running the nightlies since they were available from other users who built them, now just running the official ones. I will report anything I find, but so far it's been flawless.

The only issue I seem to be having is incoming mms photos are really compressed. Anyone else have this issue?

I believe the only major bug currently is, VoLTE is broken.

I just installed 4-21 yesterday and seen that today's build 4-22 will have the 5.1.1 merged so I dirty flashed over 4-21 and all seems good so far. I can't test VoLTE because I don't have it in my area.

I just did the same.
I did notice some weird stuff on the 4/20 build, but I think it was related to my DPI change. I reverted back to the stock DPI and everything seems ok now.

I have volte on Verizon but I believe its like chroma if u reboot u have to turn off then back on
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

4/22 build is slow to send SMS at times and noticed the messaging app is goofy at times. I'll be in a message and normally it would say the contacts name on top, sometimes that is missing.
Will wipe and try new build and report back.

Has anybody else had issues with Bluetooth randomly shutting off and requiring a reboot to turn back on? I'm on 4/23 update.

I'm running into an issue where I just can't get cm 12.1 to boot. I had an issue w/ Chroma and flashed back to the latest factory images including bootloader, radio, everything. From there, I have TWRP back and working but no matter which combination of cm12.1 build I try with any of Zen, Franco or Lean kernels along w/ the gapps from the cm wiki, I just get stuck at the blue robot and expanding circle boot logo. No amount of time sitting (10+ minutes) allows it to pass. Admittedly I have not tried w/o a kernel, but I don't want to encrypt it. The phone boots fine with stock just fine. A new install of Chroma works as well without issue. Thoughts anyone? Thanks in advance.

Probably some changes have been done that those kernels dont support, for Zen did you use the anykernel zip? That *should* work.
Also, VoLTE works, but you must first toggle it off, then toggle it on. If you reboot, you must redo these steps, but it does work.

Anyone got volte to work on verizon yet on the latest 12.1 nightlies?

Mine has been working just fine

can anyone post a link to the official thread? i can't find it

Thanks, I had ignored that one cuz it said 5.0 not 5.1. Also, not sure why it's in general, but it looks like this is the one I want. Thanks again

4/28 Nightly with the "super alpha" xposed 5.1 is working great for me.

Looking for a ROM

Hello,
I have been looking for a ROM on the forum for last one week couldnt decide which way to go. can anybody direct me to a stable ROM that is good enough for day to day usage, right now i have 11S Kit kat.

In one week you could´t have tried and test them all. Why do you want to let other people decide? Everybody has his own preferences, so at the end you have to decide yourself.

Most of the roms are stable , unless you corrupt anything. Resurrection remix mm, cm 13, dirty unicorn mm , aicp, aokp, saosp all are stable for me , and my daily use also.

Official Cyanogen OS 12.1 works just fine. i dont see the point of using another ROM (ive already tested some roms with not big difference)

Guys thank you for your feedback. actually i didn't tried any one of them i wanted to try resurrection but apparently the youtube installation guide is removed, so i couldn't move on.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-ressurrection-remix-m-t3270147
Secondly i am having issues with Cynogen 12.1 screen brightness is automatically 100% some times screen is non responsive. settings and google play shut down for no reason. that's why i wanted to try some other ROM.

Why do you need a video for Installation?
[
- Download the latest build
- Download Gapps
- Take a nandroid backup
- Recommended - Full wipe and factory reset
- Flash ROM using latest TWRP 2.8.6.x Recovery
- Flash Gapps
- Reboot.
- Enjoy!QUOTE]
Full wipe means System too,
For Gapps you can use Open Gapps (Arm, 6.0, i would choose Nano)
For TWRP you can use latest 3,0 (I recommend to install it with the Multirom App, so you are able to install more than one Rom)
If you are on 12.1, first install CM 13 Nightly because of the Firmware, or install the Firmware only.

du mm is my daily driver for me now....tried resurection remix mm but did not like it it lagged..DU is great

My choices are jgcaap, resurrection remix and nuclear reborn. All three roms are very very good, stable and battery friendly.
A0001 - oneplus one

My suggestion is Sultans CM 12.1 It is one of the most stable and smoothest roms, battery friendly and most of all it does not heat up with excessive use.

Go for dirty unicorn and stay dirty!

Sultan. The answer is always Sultan.

Either try Exodus 6: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/orig-development/rom-exodus-android-6-oneplus-2-t3333818
Or try mine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-t3333591

Picking out a ROM is like picking out socks. There are many choices, some better than others. I've never needed anybody to help me pick out socks.
Given the variety of answers above, you're just going to have to decide for yourself. There is no single best answer, besides straight CM13 nighties

Ressurection remix MM

Request please port a Dirty Unicorn Build for OnePlus 2 , The MM build.

Evenif I am using du mm right now yet somehow I am missing the old kitkat cm11s

i am using dirty unicorn and is fast and stable BUT all mm roms i tried(i think i've tried all the famous ones) have ****ty battery life.
i flashed 44s a week ago just for fun and going "back" to mm was the hardest thing

New MXP User Questions

Hi,
I will be receiving my MXP in the new few days but have some questions that I would like to ask beforehand,
1. ROMs in the Android Development section is all based on stock firmware but with customisations added into it?
2. What does layers in ROM means?
3. Is Marshmallow stable and good battery life?
4. I only use my phone for social media, texting and browsing so I prefer better battery life, so for this should I use stock, Squid or Ultra kernel?
5. I have a brand new SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card, should I format it on my computer or on the MXP?
Thanks

Stock.
Don't need to format your sd.

1. They aren't based on stock rom. Some are based on CM and some on AOSP(Android Open Source Project). 2 or 3 roms are stock based but they are just the deodexed rom.
2. Layers is a systemwide theming option.
3. Yup, its stable.
4. Use squid kernel. Its more stable.
5. No need to format it through pc.

Thanks for the information, ROMs like Resurrection which is based on CyanogenMod, does it use CM or stock camera libs? As I use CyanogenMod ROMs before on my other phones and the camera quality isn't as good as stock.

I haven't looked into this but i feel they use cm camera libs. I dont find a lot of difference in image quality between stock and cm though.

Would you say to use stock or CM for stability and battery friendly as I won't flash another ROM or version after?
Also, where do I find the latest modem file?
Thanks for your help

I struggled at first with the battery life, but after many tweaks and head aches, I got a very good result, with cm13 lux and squid kernel.

Stock is best for stability and battery life. Cm is also pretty good in stability now but battery life takes a bit of hit compared to stock.
Latest modem file is the latest stock rom zip. ?

I have received my MXP today however when I put my SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card (FAT32 format) in the phone, it isn't detected but it works on my computer, I read online this is a fault with the MicroSD card reader and I must return for replacement?

Instead of flashing latest stock ROM, should I do the notification update on my phone and then afterwards flash RR ROM? So does that mean I have latest modem?

Yes, if you go by the way of getting updated through OTA notification, even then you would get the latest modem file.
About SD card problem, I have no idea. Try formatting it through pc in other format and check again in phone. I personally never had any problem regarding it.

ROM Recommendations? Bad luck so far...

Hi All,
So I have tried over the past couple of months - LOS, RR, SkyDragon and RR.
I was using LOS at the very beginning, the battery was way worse than expected. So far RR was my favorite but I can no longer cope with the constant network/signal issue (NOT MY WIFI) It is absolutely terrible.
The WiFi disconnects with ? - the sim ejects (only one) - and the general signal is piss poor. The battery however is top notch. Oh and any picture taken with stock camera has big green lines running down them.
I know no ROM will be perfect but some must be better than most.
Or am I - have I done something wrong (I am a hardcore techie/Cyber guy) So I like to think i know my stuff. Maybe I am missing a network file or something?
My current ROM is attached.
http://bit.ly/2sAcySB

Are you clean flashing these ROMs? I've run LOS and RR (both official and unofficial) without any issues whatsoever. Running unofficial RR currently as my daily driver with no network or wifi drops. Try flashing the OOS 3.5.8 firmware (not the full ROM, just the firmware, link is in my signature), and then try to clean flash a ROM of your choice. Use the nano OpenGapps package (this will avoid installing Google Contacts, which is known to cause network drops).

Hi, Yeah I always fully wipe and do clean installs.. But not for the OTA updates (obviously)
Upon researching I have seen the Google Contacts thing mentioned a few times. I will give that a go. Thanks

Morning mate - so I did all of the above - to the letter. SAME PROBLEM
So, I will be on a WiFi call and after a couple of mins the connection will go - I move the phone away from my face and see crosses 'X' through WiFi and both sims - then it all comes back on... It's like all my signal(s) timeout or something. It really is frustrating but I DO NOT want to revert to stock.
Any ideas?
The pics didn't work last time - so here's the link - http://bit.ly/2sAcySB

Sounds like you should take a look at paranoid android as they focus on stability, but they are still testing the oneplus 2 android 7 version so you'll have to wait a little if you want android 7.

I used to switch between ROMs because I wasn't satisfied, but I have settled for AospExtended. The offscreen gestures are still there and I like the customizability, especially being able to make the notifications menu have a blurred background. The latest version is 7.1.2.

Which rom do you prefer?

Hello
I didn't try many roms on the 6t yet, just Havoc and Renovate.
While Havoc is fun and with many mods, I felt it was not as speedy and smooth as stock rom, I also had trouble with wifi not connecting automatically.
Now I am using Renovate which is a cool bunch of mods for stock rom but it's missing a more solid aod (no music control, no clock movements loop).
Which rom do you recommend, that is smooth, with plenty of mods and stable enough?

i always stick to stock rom.

I am also surprised to see no oos based rom with plenty of mods like transparent app drawer ir navigation bar colors.
Renovate is a very good start but because it's a mod pack/rom that is shared over several devices, there are no specific mods for oos.
Unfortunately the only fully working aod on 6t nowadays are aosp

AOSiP for me. I have tried almost all ROMs and AOSiP is the most stable with just the right amount of mods. I am very nicely settled now with a custom kernel and settings, swift themes. Got amazing battery life and super smooth performance

Currently using renovate, waiting for fingerprint to get fixed on AOSP and then I'll probably flash RR

You might try the version 54 of the Smurf kernel, it has the WiFi driver built in. It solved my Wifi problems in Lineage.

SkyDragon, Maybe I'm a little bias :laugh:

Only 2 bugs left to fix then we share it. Busy with real life so not much time for the rom. Hoping this week beta with testers and then release on XDA.

AOSIP or liquid remix. Both veeeery snappy and stable. Nice battery as well.
Today I'd go for official AOSIP for sure.

Now I am lost, I was tempted to try RR as it looks like having the most complete mods and useful oneplus apps, but aosip is better overall?

I've been using crdroid for a long time now. Almost daily updates, full AOD, OMS, loads of customisation, fast, stable. It's decent.

As soon as the FP starts working in AOSP roms, they will be on fire..
