First test version of LineageOS
The first version of LineageOS is here. It will most likely replace CM14.1 and can be found in
this new thread. Here are the goods:
Changelog (LineageOS):

- Bluesleep wakelock should be gone and device should deep sleep now
Flashing from CM14.1:
If you want to upgrade, you need to take special care and follow the instructions here or you could end up with a bootlooping device.
Anyways, as always, before you try to upgrade, make a backup. I repeat, MAKE A BACKUP! LineageOS is now enforcing SELinux, which leads to all kinds of complications, but makes the device more secure in the end and is well worth the extra effort needed. So lets get to it then.
First you need to have twrp recovery, as cm recovery is, for some reason we have not been able to figure out yet, not capable of installing GApps to the device. After that, flash the update.zip any way you want (via SD or sideload) and DIRECTLY after flash GApps (if you use them. If not you should be good to go). If you forget to flash GApps you will end up in a bootloop. But do not panic, it can be fixed by (you may have guessed) rebooting back into recovery and flashing GApps.
