new CWM link?

Reviving an old thread with long-overdue stuff...

Added links to latest CWM, CM 11.0, and CM 12.0 to first post.

Hi,
the link on the first page is to CWM 6.0.5.0. Can anyone provide a link to the newest version (6.0.5.1) ?
Thank you very much in advance!
Jack

the sensors work poorly (rotation, liniar accelerometer, gravity)

[ROM] CyanogenMod 5.1.1 -- 12.1 baseband: I8730XWAMK1.
StockRoom initially is Vodafone I8730XWAMB7 .
I installed the latest version: 20150804. Anyway the problem was older (Rom 5.0.2)
After a some time testing this build I've noticed that magnet sensor doesn't work at all.
I install apps from the Google Play store. The problem is that the application does not work any type: tool kit, compass, or planetarium.
I think drivers of sensor are the problem .MAGNETIC FIELD: ( 4.0mA ) +1725,36 it is very strong.
Multitasking works, phone work, you can open other applications, compass pointed North Pole wrong, continually oscillating 10-20 degrees. 360 degrees rotation of the phone maintains the same position to the north of phone. Possibly because AOSP drivers?
Linear Acceleration --AOSP
Gravity Sensor ------- AOSP
Orientation Sensor -- AOSP
Try installing applications: Androsensor.apk, Skeye.apk or Compass.apk and say what problems you have.
in ghica54's Profile-about me, I have attached a photo album with screnshoot with sensors.

I installed StokRom I8730XWAMK1. -JB-4.1.2. Are 11 sensors, detected with the application Hardware_info.apk. Everything is working properly.
I installed CM 12.1 I8730XWAMK1. _LP_20150823, and 20150823_express_mod_zip, and Pa_gapps 5.1 pico (uni). There are 9 sensors, detected with the application Hardware_info.apk. Though everything is working properly.
