Tried the release dated 20160912. Am using twrp 2.8.0.0.
Flashing just your ROM, things looked pretty good, but got energetic and tried both the pico and nano opengapps.
After installing either of the opengapps zips, the aosp keyboard was so unstable that I could not do any typing.
On my attempt to install ROM and pico gapps at the same time, I got stuck in a boot loop after becoming frustrated with the keyboard issue. Installing ROM rebooting and then going back into recovery, installing gapps and then rebooting, the keyboard failed but so subsequent boot loop.
Still things look promising, please keep up the good work.
If there is anything specific I can do that would provide you with useful information, please let me know.

Thanks again.

Hmm... Although I have not tried any gapps, I did not expect any issues with them. I have just gotten used to running without gapps. I'll investigate and find gapps that work or fix one up to work.. ;)

Note: please do not quote the OP. ;)

Thanks for the modified open gapps. Sorry for the trouble I caused.
I'll play around with trying to get the play store added to your release, as soon as my phone recharges. In trying the release, it seemed pretty good, but possibly a bit slow. Your 5.1 version is really very good indeed, fast and with excellent battery life. Please keep up the good work.
Hope I didn't quote things this time.

It's not your fault... I was unaware of the licensing and I was rushing... ;)

I finally had an opportunity to try this alpha build on my SGH-T599N. I used the "cm-13.0-20160912-METICULUS-codinalte.zip" version with the fix-mtp patch.

In general the Meticulus CyanogenMod 13 ROM seemed to function better in speed performance than the Meticulus Carbon LP 5.1.1 ROM for the devices. This was expected and is normal for Android 6.0.1 in relation to Android 5.1.1.

I did find some bugs/issues that do not appear to have been previously mentioned. Those are:

Severe Issues:
  • At least 3G cellular data does not work. I did not test 2G data. A T-Mobile account with unlimited data (of all classes) was used to test.
  • Formatting SDCard (maybe also other volumes or attached storage?) fails and corrupts SDCard data. (Fails after displaying 20% progress) The SDCard is also not recognized until reboot (UNTESTED: or maybe reinsertion of SDCard)
    • Attempting to format SD Card as portable storage via the Settings App ( Storage & USB --> [Clicking o SD Card to Browse SD Card] --> [Invoke Pop-up menu] --> Settings --> Format --> ERASE & FORMAT ) fails partway and returns an error. See attached "Screenshot_Format_SDCard_Failure_Portable_Storage.png" picture for error message.
    • Attempting to format SD Card as internal storage storage (adopting the storage) via the Settings App ( Storage & USB --> [Clicking o SD Card to Browse SD Card] --> [Invoke Pop-up menu] --> Settings --> Format as internal --> ERASE & FORMAT ) fails partway and returns an error. There is a long delay at 20% progress before failure error is returned. See attached "Screenshot_Format_SDCard_Failure_As_Internal_Storage.png" picture for error message.
Other Important Issues:
  • Clicking the Back arrow in the Material Design navigation in the "Performance" category of the Settings options results in "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" (see attached "Screenshot_Crash_Settings_Performance.png" picture for illustration). Using the hardware back button does not result in an error.
  • "Select USB Configuration" in "Developer options" state resets to "Charging" after reboot. Also, although the USB configuration status may have reset to Charging after reboot, MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) is always used on boot, regardless as to what the "Select USB Configuration" option was previously set to prior to boot.
  • SELinux not Enforced
Lesser Issues:
  • Manually Scanning for network operators results in integer numbers provided rather than network names.

SD bug

Hello, i flashed this ROM and dint noticed that i need to format to install apps to the SD card (does not work), this is a big issue since the internal storage is low, ¿there is a a workaround for this? if not, I'll be back to carbon 5.1.1

[edit] how hard in to fix these bugs? (accelerometer stops working, 3G doesn't work, unstable wi-fi, etc) i do not know Java but C++, i really want this rom to be more usable, the os is super fluid compared to 4.1.2 and the UI is beautiful
