This is an unofficial CM13.0 ROM based off of the stable branch instead of the nightly branch, with the main goal being stability with an overall good user experience. This ROM has many things in common with my OnePlus One ROM.

Custom kernels are not compatible with this ROM. I will NOT provide support if you install a custom kernel.

ROM features:

Based off latest generic CyanogenMod 13.0 stable sources (root access is NOT included)
OTA updates via built-in CMUpdater
Configurable multi-color notification LED
Custom camera app with several manual controls and high-speed video recording with audio
Custom camera HAL I made myself featuring:
-4K UHD and DCI video recording
-1440p video recording with the front-facing camera
-High-speed video recording with audio at 60 FPS and 120 FPS for 720p, and 60 FPS for 1080p
-Consistent 30 FPS video recording in all lighting conditions
-Intelligent anti-shake algorithm (significantly reduces motion blur when capturing photos)
-Faster autofocus in low lighting conditions
-No stuttering in camera viewfinder
-Improved photo quality
-Photo capture up to 4208x3120 resolution (instead of 4160x3120)
Many other misc. improvements under the hood

Kernel features:

Based off latest CAF Marshmallow kernel source from Qualcomm (LA.BF.1.1.3_rb1.13)
Removed lots of excessive bloat
Dynamic CPU input boost driver I wrote myself (makes the phone feel smooth without destroying battery life)
CPU underclocked to 1958 MHz by default (you can disable this; see why I did this in the FAQ in the 3rd post)
Custom thermal control driver I wrote myself (features 8 thermal throttle steps; keeps the phone cool)
LCD KCAL by Savoca
Westwood TCP congestion algorithm (enabled by default)
F2FS support
NTFS support
No placebo patches, features, or compiler "optimizations"
Many other misc. improvements not listed here

Installation instructions (for first-time installation):
First, perform a backup of your existing setup, and then perform a clean install (wipe /data and /system; TWRP is recommended).

If you plan on using encryption with this ROM, then flash the custom TWRP build in the Downloads section below before flashing the ROM. This custom TWRP build is needed if you want to be able to access data encrypted using this ROM while booted into recovery. Otherwise, you will not be able to access your encrypted data while your phone is in recovery mode.

Then, flash the ROM, flash a Google apps package, SuperSU if you want root access (ONLY v2.65 OR HIGHER), and then reboot.

Installation instructions (for updating to a newer release):
If you are already running my CM13.0 ROM, then you can update to a newer version of the ROM via the built-in OTA updater or by simply dirty-flashing the new ROM build without wiping anything. HOWEVER, do NOT reinstall Google Apps after installing a new update.

FAQ:

1. Why did you underclock the CPU to 1958 MHz?
Answer: At 1958 MHz, the amount of heat generated by the CPU is good amount less than at 2265MHz, so the CPU is throttled less often (leading to better user experience), and battery life is better as well. The performance difference between 1958 MHz and 2265 MHz is also not really noticeable unless you use a benchmark application. If you want to remove the CPU underclock then flash the zip from the first post that disables the underclock. You must flash this zip every time you install a new ROM update.

Sultanxda · May 8, 2016

Even though the ROM zip is labelled as stable, I've only used this ROM on my own device (and it is stable for me, at least). The ROM should boot for everyone, but bugs can always slip through the cracks, so do be on the lookout for strange issues when using this first build.

Calvin2394 · May 8, 2016 at 6:16 PM

First!

Thanks sultanxda!
Going to flash in a week

crian · May 8, 2016 at 6:23 PM

Nice one! Will flash it after download has finished and report back.

lakyboss · May 8, 2016 at 6:37 PM

Omg, thanks dude. I used your rom on my, now sold, oneplus one and loved it.
Can't wait to flash this thing

etoy · May 8, 2016 at 6:45 PM

a dream comes true. was regretting having sold my OPO just because of this rom. now i can finally enjoy my device. thanks sultan and keep up the good work, as usual

nauman236 · May 8, 2016 at 7:06 PM

good news and great work sultanxda.

migueldbr · May 8, 2016

Thanks a lot @Sultanxda

Btw does it include the fix for the noise cancelling mic?

edit: rom does not boot using opengapps arm 6.0 micro. Its the same with official cm13, some kind of bug with opengapps (flashed banks gapps on official cm13 so they probably work with this rom too)

edit 2: It booted with banks gapps. Excellent rom and camera!

Any way you could make a zip file to make gpu idle @ 200mhz instead of 27mhz?

Jude Aranha · May 8, 2016 at 7:30 PM

Downloading !
BTW @Sultanxda do you think buying the ONE is still a good deal ? I need a spare device, and the development of the ONE amazes me to unimaginable extents, the X might probably still be my primary, but for home and personal use, i will use the ONE, should i go for it ?
PS - Getting a 4 month old device in US $150. [Black, 64GB]

I'm using your custom camera HAL since the beginning, your CM13 rom must be amazing.
I've just one question before starting a clean flash, is the OTA synchronised with the official CM13 branch or with your custom branch ?

bricky23 · May 8, 2016 at 7:31 PM

Very smooth!! No problems so far. Thank you!

nauman236 · May 8, 2016 at 8:46 PM

working good. system+data+cache to f2fs. used open_gapps-arm-6.0-mini. root and xposed framework installed. previous rom cm 13 by ashwin007.

It reverts the frequency from 1.9 to 2.2 as default

Odysseus Rex · May 8, 2016 at 11:43 PM

Still testing, but the notification led is amazing, working flawlessly - they are more vivid, stronger and fully customizable! Perfect work! :angel:

Loureiro · May 9, 2016

Played a bit with the camera and it is amazing.

It is possible to change shutter speed on the front facing camera!
1440p recording is great too.

Thank you so much

No. It isn't worth it. You'll save more power this way and won't notice the difference
