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. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All 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.

So do we dirty flash over unofficial or clean flash with the nuke it.apk?

I dirty flashed with no issues.

A quick note for those who want to get Facebook and Messenger working . Delete the following files in your file browser (note that you must enable root access for apps in Developer Options):

• /data/app/com.facebook.katana-1/lib/arm/libsslx.so
• /data/app/com.facebook.orca-1/lib/arm/libsslx.so

Note that you still won't be able to make phone or voice calls in FB/Messenger.

Did you use nukeit.apk

Read this post. My guess is that you do not need it. CM13 was unofficial earlier, which meant the official branch had incompatibilities with VS985, which were fixed with the Nuke-it flash. The latest official adoption, and merge, have resolved these already, but Invisiblek would be able to clarify better than I.

 

[claytongriffith]

Thanks for the Rom. Will report on any undocumented bugs.

 

[goldsmitht]

Reformat ext sd card?

Does CM13 still require you to reformat any external SD card it recognizes? Sorry, haven't tried this new version, and will have to back up my card if this is still a requirement

TIA

:cyclops:

The ROM itself is running STUPID fast on my phone. Love the speed of everything.

I am having issues with this not maintaining the Connection to my Android Wear device. It seems to disconnect, and then forget the connection. Facebook and Snapchat will not start, even after deleting the folders in the previous posts.

 

[Icanthelplt90]

Anyone here tested out Qi Charging yet?

 

[jacksheadache]

Trouble connecting/authenticating to Enterprise WiFi after flashing. Credentials are being rejected and authentication is failing. Has anyone else experienced this?

This happens with a fresh or dirty install. It's almost as if the cert isn't being accepted/applied.

I think this might be a Bluetooth problem in general--I have to re-pair my car to my phone every time I get in.

Works fine for me!

 

[zebinadams]

I saw in the other thread that there were data issues with some builds. Have those been resolved, or is it still inconsistent?

I read somewhere that if you try booting twrp, unmount then remount the sdcard, it may work

@invisiblek with the 35b bootstack, can I flash it if I'm on 12.1 still? And then the subsequent radio as well?

I didn't have any issues, though it did ask me to configure my sd card. Basically, you can decide to use the "transfer" option, which leaves it alone, or you can format it as internal storage. Note: if you go with the internal storage, it won't work with any other devices and will require a format.

Has anyone had any issues with the phone crashing randomly? I dirty flashed over my 12.1 nightly (a recent one), updated all possible gapps, and flashed the new xposed module.

 

[ender89]

Update: I decided to flash the firmware suggested in the top post, and updated supersu at the same time. Now its stuck on a boot animation loop apparently. I call this progress, because if I call it anything else I might just break down and cry. I'm preparing myself mentally for the inevitable full wipe I most likely face.

You don't need supersu cm has it built in.

But will I be able to use the ext sd card if I flash a backed 12.1?

Anybody using our tried sending mms? If it worked, then how?
The messaging apps I tried are : stock, textra, Google messenger, hangouts and one called yaati or something.
All failed for me.

You have to first change SELinux to permissive, then flash super su.


I didn't see it mentioned as a bug so it might be a new policy for CM but does the advanced reboot option in dev settings always revert to unchecked after reboot?

I just sent a picture to test and it went through just fine, my phone was connected to Wi-Fi as well so it actually did the Wi-Fi to data handoff pretty quickly. This was using the stock messaging app.
