CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

The source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit our Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

About encryption

As you should've already guessed, CyanogenMod 13 will always (re)encrypt your /data partition on first boot unless you flash another kernel with encryption disabled.

Bug reports

Bug reports while using custom kernels, mods (like Xposed) and whatsoever will be ignored.
When reporting a bug don't forget to mention the version you're using (eg.: cm-13.0-20151218-NIGHTLY-flounder_lte), what steps do you need to do to reproduce the problem, what's happening and what it should be happening instead.
Attaching a logcat won't hurt you.

Just one bug I found...using 12-20 nightly and flashed systemless root, arm64 stock gapps. Selecting the "sounds" menu in settings causes an immediate crash of settings. Happens every time. Happened immediately from a fresh, clean flash, and after a reboot, and after a factory reset and reflash. Also happened with elementalx kernel. Tried getting a logcat but I can't get any logcat app to run properly for some reason (might be another bug but could just be me lol).

Everything else seems to work fine for me. Much better than stock so far in my opinion.

But even that (systemless root), shouldn't justify the issue. logcat would be appreciated.
@lcrponte is using the builtin root access and doesn't have that issue, can you confirm that, if you don't flash chainfire's systemless root, it crashs the same?

You aren't being rude. I read the OP...I should have mentioned I did get the bug without systemless root installed. I actually couldn't get root access on anything until I went back into recovery and flashed supersu. As a matter of fact, no logcat apps could gain root to generate a log for the bug, which is why I flashed it in the first place.

If I were able to get a log I would, but without supersu the log apps couldn't get root, and with supersu the log apps just weren't logging anything...at all, not just errors.

Not a big deal to me anyway just figured I'd try to contribute...when I get to work I'll see if I can grab a log from the computer.

Let me know if this log helps - https://www.dropbox.com/s/6tkzx629re5uklz/LogCat_Filtered_Error_12-21-2015_13-06.txt?dl=0

I can't revert back from elementalx at the moment because I don't want my data to encrypt...if you need me to I will make a backup and do so later tonight.

This started with 12-19 nightly for me. The 18th build is fine.

so should we revert to the 18th build? i just installed today as well (latest build) and i'm experiencing the same exact issue.

If sound setup is important to your N9, then I would, I did. Other than the FC though, everything else ran fine.

 

[lcrponte]

It's not related to any kind of "root" access. It's a CM-wide bug meaning that you could revert to your last backup or wait for it get fixed.

 

[ss12108]

Flashed 12/24 nightly and the sound settings crash is fixed for me.

LTE does not work with CyanogenMod 13 on my device

 

[imcass]

This is probably a dumb question, but what gapps should I use? The OpenGapps project, which is recommended by Cyanogenmod, does not have 6.0.1 gapps, so I'm kind of lost.

They have for 6.0.x. This one works beautifully for me.

Weird. I tried to use the nano package of that 6.0.X version, but for some reason, I got an error, hence my question.
I'll give it another try, maybe I made some kind of mistake.

User problem, not a ROM problem. Flash latest img and repeat the steps on the installation instructions.

I use the nano, without problems. Make sure you download the 64 bit gapps.

Get rid of corrupted device warning?

Has anyone figured out a way to run this ROM (or any custom ROM) without the nasty "Your device is corrupt ...." (and Santa Claus won't bring you any presents) warning on every boot?

(I feel like this must be an FAQ, but I can't find it in this thread or the CM 12.1 thread, so ...)
