General:
These are UNOFFICIAL CM13.0 Marshmallow Nightlies brought to you by Open Desire Project and TeamCodefire as a continuum to CM10, 10.1, 11.0, 12.0 and 12.1 builds. Builds are generated automatically on daily basis. Process starts around 00:30 PST/PDT. If it fails, then there will be no build until the reason for failure is taken care of which can take time. Last 7 nightlies will be kept on the server. If you want a longer history of them, you are free to archive them yourself.

Adoptable Storage

Continuing on the adoptable storage discussion from cm 12.1 thread:
Now that I really thought about it, this is not a solution for us. Our biggest issue is the small system partition which won't benefit in any way from adoptable storage thus I will stick to maintaining only aceopt device tree and regular ace tree is frozen on cm-12.1.

So impressive this phone is still kicking thanks to Mustaavalkosta, It's still sitting on my desk as my first android phone. Can't wait to try cm13 on it.

HTTPS, first build, etc.

HTTPS / SSL
SSL certificates are now renewed across the ODP domains just in case someone faced HSTS block earlier with expired certificates. Let me know if something isn't working with SSL. Let's Encrypt service only just entered open beta after all.

Nightlies
I started nightlies to check that everything is in order in automation side of things. Camera is still broken and since I caught cold last night again and this time it seems to be quite furious cold I'm not sure when I can/will continue to poke the camera with shim library. You can poke around in 6.0 now though and get mad when all the things are broken.

Only opt variant build is available. Regular ace builds are dead for 13.0 as far as I'm concerned. You can read how to convert your stuff to support opt version's changed partition layout here. I'll update FAQs and so forth as soon as I can.

First Nightly Quick Impressions

Didn't expect much on flashing the first nightly, but it's running smoothly.
so far, so good. ;). Expect for screen flicker glitches which happens randomly on using the phone.

And the flicker will likely get a bit worse when camera libs start working again. They trigger crazy blue flickering during bootup etc. and there's no fix in sight. I have already spent countless hours with 12.1 based builds and this LCD underflow issue. But hey, 6.0 is booting up and is generally running ok apart from the ever-increasing annoyances. I guess that's something even though not a perfect score. :)

Does this means it is using the new adreno blobs (what about saga, same thing too)? Do gapps/playstore work now? Someone installed games? Does it improve performance? I'll stay on 12.1 for now (it's my daily phone) but will definitely be following the CM13 thread :)

Yeah, I wouldn't have even released anything for 13.0 without the new adreno blobs because the old ones are already killing WebView on 12.1 and because that issue seems to come from the actual blobs themselves it's pretty much impossible to fix without changing blobs. Going backwards is not really my "thing" so new blobs or gtfo. :p

And the builds are the same for both devices. This would have been very difficult to manage with different stuff for each device.

I was initially planning to quit this hobby (or probably already a habit at this point) after 12.1 but since it turned out to be possible to utilise the sdcard and work around quite fatal insufficient storage issue here we still are. This has made my goals for the 13.0 a bit fuzzy but I suppose we'll see how much is doable and how much isn't. Problems have gradually got worse and worse as the upstream makes more or less huge changes while we are, for example, still using gingerbread camera blobs and this trend is continuing so let's try to keep out expectations low. :)

I am also getting an Adroid Keyboard (AOSP) stopped working notice and an Encryption unsuccessful error warning. Pressing Reset phone reboots it into TWRP, which tries to wipe cache and Data and restart, leading to the same error warnings. (20151205 nightly and 20151201 gapps)

Today's build wasn't favorable, it has FCs throughout. quick - Is either you restore back to previous build or old back up.
