Code:
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.

Regarding the Bootloop issue on some devices

It's a known issue (the bootloop), which has something to do with the variation of chipset. Most of you guys are probably informed about what this issue is and what causes it (Semcosh/Murata saga). My best guess is it's caused by the kernel, so I'll try building the CM kernel for Tesla and see if that helps with the bootloop issue

@Gokulbalram: thank you veeery much for AOSP-MM. Here my notes:
+ boots fine
- 15-20 apps are optimized at every boot
- contains no Launcher, installed one in TWRP-terminal
+ QS-layout very fine
+ wifi, BT, GPS are working fine
- settings for key illumination and color of date&time don't survive a reboot
- text unsharp when lowering brightness by ScreenFilter
- long tap keys with dark symmetry: advanced keys without visible focus
- dark theme not perfect yet: some details are unvisible (setting icon of clock app), setting of switches unclear
- camera: not-connect-error (Snap & OpenCamera FCs)
+ ES restores app settings perfectly (1st time on MM)

Looking further for battery life...

@rp158, Thanks for the feedback.

I'm aware of the launcher issue, it wasn't compiling whilst building, so I had to chuck it.

As for Camera, could you tell me if the SIM works? Thanks.

Yes. I had to choose CDMA=automatic. No idea, what it is ;)
SIM-lock not tested.
Still one minor: wake up by back/menu is offered, but cannot work. Better delete. Wake up by volume buttons works sometimes.
If you need a launcher: I took SlimKauncher 1.0.

Hi. If i dirty flash this over cm13 it partially works. Like it stays on ANDROID animation for very long time. On clean flash it was on that animation for 5 sec. I know it's chip related, but is there any way to boot it up?

---------- Post added at 02:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 PM ----------

OK. for all that have bootloop do these steps:
1.Wipe system data cache and dalvik cache
2.Install cm13 zip from cm website and reboot
3.let it stay on bootanimation for 15 sec.
4.Take the battery out and wait 10 sec.
5 Insert the battery and boot into recovery
6.Wipe only system
7.Install tesla rom and gapps.

It should boot
(OPTIONAL) IF you want launcher, download nova launcher or any other launcher apk and place it in sdcard. In twrp open file manager and copy it to /system/app. Click on it and select chmod 755
reboot and all is working

reboot and all is eorking
Considering the various amount of feedback I've heard (from the bootlooping users), I'm really confused as to what exactly happens. Could anybody with this issue record what exactly happens when one clean flashes an AOSP ROM?

@Gokulbalram, perhaps it helps: although flash&boot succeed, I see some unusual behaviour:
1. TWRP 3.002 showes during flash
Code:
...
Flashing SuperSU ...
mount   failed to mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 at /system: Device or resource busy
unmount of /system failed: no such volume
script succeeded: result was [ ]
2. At every boot 15/65 or 20/70 user&system-apps are optimized.
-----
Torch stops after 1s (camera related?).

Known issues, I'll try building again today
