Yes exactly. What is the difference with its unofficial version?

Different device code developed by a different person. This has already been discussed multiple times here and in CM 14.1 unofficial thread, use search. Both versions of CM 13.0 are now outdated and don't have latest security fixes. If you want to have an updated ROM, use CM 14.1 by kyasu. I only provided a build for the few people who still want to use this for some reason. If you don't care about security and it works for you, you can use it.

    CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 6.0 (Marshmallow), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

    Code:

    /*
     * Your warranty is now void.
     *
     * We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
     * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
     * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
     * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
     * you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
     *

    Please keep this thread clean.

    I already explained the origin of my work and my ability to do the original CM porting of the bland new device in #13 and #14.

    From the github and the gerrit of CM, I know who solk2 is and his CM work. I respect his CM work and I did small contributions as follows:

    http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/74135/
    http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/74136/
    http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/89513/
    http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/91066/
    http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/107796/

    Because I am new to this 'Galaxy S 4 i9506 Android Development' category, I don't know who arter97 is, who Furrydaus is, and their works. I was surprised and disappointed at their posts.

    I did many open source work and my real name and mail address is credited in the Linux kernel source tree. All of the android ROMs use the Linux kernel. But I will not claim that their ROMs steal my work nor they forgot proper credits. Because I live in a open source community.
    The credit of open source community is keeping the copyright of the source code.
    The theft of open source community is changing the copyright of the source code.
    Using other open source is a base of the development in a open source community.

    They claim that my work uses other open sources. As you know, the android ROM consists of many open sources; Linux kernel, AOSP, CAF, ffmpeg, and so on. I cannot understand their claims and I think they live in another open source community in another planet. Of cource I kept the copyright of the open source.

    I provide the source code in github. You can build CM from my source. May the source be with you.

    cm-14.0-20161016-UNOFFICIAL-ks01ltexx.zip

    Here is the first alpha build of CM14.

    I will start a new CM14 thread when the status becomes beta (i.e. official CM14 nightly starts).
    Until then, please do not report bugs, do not ask ETA about CM14 build.
    Both rom and device has a lot of bugs.

    Most of stuff (wifi, mobie data, sensors, gps, camera, sound, ..) works.
    Video recording does not work.
    For gapps, please use Banks Gapps 7.x instead of OpenGapps (OpenGapps causes a broken permission dialog).

    Enjoy!
