Why is the Cyanogen team putting more focus on CM11 unopposed to CM11s which is supposed to be their unique software for the Oneplus One? They even rolled out a Nexus-esque rom just yesterday.
This move doesn't make sense to me from a marketing standpoint. One would think the best way for them to go is to make sure CM11s is bug free and then focus on CM11 or whatever else.
THIS IS NOT A RANT. I'm literally confused so please keep all negative comments to yourself.

I would think it's because CM11 is on more devices (many more) than CM11S
there's only 1 phone that runs CM11S, where as almost every other phone has a build of CM11. There are even CM11 nightlies for the OPO if you would rather use that.
why would they focus all their efforts on one specific phone? THAT would not make good sense.
CM11S is meant to be a finished product. There will be stable finished builds in the future, but no nightlies.

From the Amount of bugs I can assure you that CM11s is far from finished.
I'm getting a better experience with CM11 + CM11S Apps. I'd recommend that.

I know it is meant to be a finished product, that's why I'm confused as to why they are still pushing the Nightlies so hard. Shouldn't CM11S be their main focus especially since this is their flagship?
Also isn't CM11 almost the same as CM11s except for subtle visual changes like the lock screen, etc? I would of thought that Cyanogen would of at least did CM11s nightlies.

I guess "finished" was the wrong word. what I meant was "stable ready for release". as in, no nightlies, snapshots, milestones, etc..

nightlies are simply made available. they aren't pushing anything. the code base is compiled on a "nightly" schedule, and if anyone wants it they can go get it.
CM11S is by no means a flagship for Cyanogenmod in any way. its just a version they compiled for the OPO. The OPO was meant to be the first marketable consumer phone running stock CM. No company anywhere is making "nightlies" available for consumer products.

is there something specific in a newer nightly that you want on your OPO, or do you just want "whatever is the newest I can get my hands on"? if that's the case, you can easily switch over to a CM nightly.

From what I've read the Nightlies are more stable than CM11s. What I would definitely want is the stability. There is too many bugs on the stock ROM but at the same time I don't want to have to flash a custom ROM to get stability.
I do understand that this phone isn't officially released yet so I am grateful for beta testing the software.

They are the same thing. Cm11 has nightly builds that are for every device where features are added and bugs are fixed. They are not considered stable. There are also monthly milestone builds which are considered somewhat stable. Cm11s is based on milestone builds with added proprietary code. You should see cm11s updates no sooner than every two weeks and no later than ever month. Any sooner would be annoying.
Cyanogen and OnePlus are not the same company. OnePlus made a stock android ROM based on source code to get people to shut up about making gpe phone. It's not Google certified so it doesn't include Google services or the play store. It's not signed by cyanogen so it doesn't flash with out unlocking the bootloader and using a different recovery.

It doesn't need to be certified by Google, its treated as a custom ROM and is not officially supported by the company. It has a separate gapps package to get Google Services/Play Store just like any other custom ROM.
Think of it as a 'reference rom' for other developers to get on the AOSP train if they choose to do so.

can you dirty flash to regular cm, or is it different enough that we need to wipe the system?
I do agree that CM11 nightly is much more stable than CM11s.
But I still like CM11 looks though. CM11s a bit weird for me.
OnePlus One will be getting a new version of CM11S very soon. And will get Android L one released also... why waste time on older versions? OP clearly has no business sense... There has already been one official OTA that fixed some things (nothing is broken on my OnePlus One, everything works great) There are also 4 or 5 official roms... flashing doesn't void warranty... so I'd say they're doing quite well actually.

Sorry if this is a dumb question I'm new to this but why are there two CM10 ROMs in the development forum? There is an "Official" build in the normal threads and an "Unofficial" one pinned at the top. Shouldn't the official one be pinned instead? What's the difference and is one better than the other? I'm just looking for the most stable/functioning JB rom.
Side note, is there a JB MIUI rom foe this phone?
Thanks in advance!

No MIUI ROM yet. The "Unofficial" version was released before CM released theirs (and on my phone it never rebooted with it on phone calls like the official CM one does). The "Official" is the real deal from Cyanogenmod.
which is more stable? I am receiving my s3 Friday and plan on running cm10 asap.
I haven't had issues with either of them. However, there are things that I like in TW more, so before automatically going to CM10, I would recommend trying out the stock, or stock-like roms first.

I really do enjoy the stock that comes with the phone. I am not a huge fan of bare bones android I like skinned interfaces but I really do enjoy the speed and features that come with JB and Google Now.
I was running CM10 for while without issues, but when I upgraded to the latest nightly, it soft bricked.
Just curious, I'm looking between the 2 Roms and loving different parts of them equally.
My biggest concern is when the updates come. Coming from Verizon, and locked bootloaders on my S4 and One, and lack of updates never caused me any of this concern.
If I decide to have CM11 nightlies or PA, will I be waiting for a stable version of, let's say, 5.0? And will I be stuck with buggy Roms? Or what would happen on either ROM with a large upgrade like that via OTA? I've never really had a stock experience coming from Verizon, and when I did on the GNex, there were never any real updates. Anyone whose had VZW feels my pain. So I wouldn't know what happens with a milestone upgrade like a newer version of android, or even 4.3 > 4.4 ...
Or would I be better off waiting on Stock and having the OTA via Google?

You will have to wait as long as it takes to merge the code and verify nothing is broken with the new code.
CM does nightlies and PA does weekly builds. Stay away from nightlies and stick to more stable versions if you don't want a possibility of a buggy build.
If a new version of Android comes out it will be merged with cm and PA and subsequently be in your hands as soon as possible.

So, for example, 5.0 comes out. I'm on CM11 M6, and CM releases a stable build of their 5.0 OS, will my phone upgrade to (CM12) or whatever it may be from CM11? Or will I have to flash it like a new ROM?

that entirely depends on what changes between versions.
there are many ways to prevent the need to reload all your apps and settings. titanium backup and helium are great options for being able to retain your data.
I cannot speak for CM, but at Paranoid Android we like to prevent the need for doing a full wipe upgrade, but sometimes it is just necessary.

Personally, I can't stand the UI of Titanium anymore. I have been using Helium for a while, but lately I've had so many issues restoring either from an SD Backup, after wiping my SD, or failing from a Cloud restore...
In a long story short, I am constantly going back and fourth between the 2 Roms. I love the simplicity and fluidity of PA, but love the customization of CM. I'm on CM at the moment, just flashed it from PA yesterday, I'm just curious if its really worth it to stick with a custom Rom, and lose out of the option of getting the newest OS, or do the Devs get their hand on the newest OS before its actually released to the masses, and usually taken care of beforehand...
Devs get the source code as soon as it is made public. Generally it is within a day or two of the ota rollout, and with the way ota rollouts happen, your favorite rom might have it before you receive the ota

CM11S isn't really "outdated" its just the most stable release that passes the QA (Quality Assurance) test and is certified by Google.
CM11 more or less gives you a preview of what will be available in the next OTA. You can add your CM11S apps onto CM11 nightlies. http://www.cmxlog.com/11/bacon/ for the changelog.
To OP, you could have simply Google searched your answer.... next time please do that.

Only reason why I call it outdated is because when CM11 had the latest touch fix to fix ghost touches, I'm all up to my friends saying "THE TOUCHES FEELS SO GOOD U SHOULD TRY IT OH WAIT HAHAHAH".... Yeah... I'm weird.

Well... to be fair, you can use CM11S and use a custom kernel to have the new touchscreen firmware.
It just hasn't been updated because they're still working on other things other than the touchscreen firmware.
I do agree that they should do a small hotfix on that part, instead of waiting for everything all at once.

That's true, but it's more of a reason to convince people to switch from 11S to 11 or just AOSP custom roms in general.
But you're still missing out on newer potential features for the phone still only available to find on AOSP over 11S....which required a rom upgrade, like the screen artifact update.

Can you guys suggest me a good custom rom? I mean lag-free (no lag when you pull down the notification drawer), and stable ?
Thanks a lot, sorry if i'm asking such as unimportant question, i'm new in here
Since AOSP is built for Nexus range, they're all about as lag free as each other and all pretty stable.

Stock is noticeably faster than pacman cm based ROM no matter what my settings were.
Going to try a couple more aosp based Roms like rastakat for the missing features from stock.
Will definitely be sticking to aosp Roms now though and not bother with any cm based.

Cm has always been a battery drain for me since cm6. Its never been more stable than anything else. Maybe their final versions are as stable as everything else, but all their nightlies and everything else released between the final versions always seem to introduce bugs. And they always change stuff that doesn't need changing.
I will never use cm again. Simply awful.

SlimRom kernel is CM based. But it has to look and feel of AOSP. The only OPO ROM that I'm aware of that does not use a CM based kernel is Omni.

Rom talking, almost all AOSP roms use CM code... which doesn't mean they are entirely CM based. Afaik, Slim and AOSPA (and other projects) take many things from CM source but they keep their own line of developement, and in some aspects they diverge a lot. But in all cases, they use (as you stated) CM kernel base. Omni is the only one that's truly independent from cyanogen (rom & kernel), I think. Plus, you now got our manufacturer working on a pure AOSP rom, but I'm unsure if cyanogen did that or Oppo.

You're gonna have to be patient then. Or just try Slim, it may use the CM kernel but you're not going to notice that at all because kernel operations take place on a lower level behind the scenes.

It's pure aosp, developed by OnePlus and altered a little by the guy that posted it. It's in the dev section.

You are referring about AOSP by OnePlus ..man still at alpha stage WAY too buggy for my taste, maybe when it's stable I'll try it.
Although here on xda some created patches and bugfixes but still I'm looking for rock-solid stability, I have speed(compared to my old and previous DHD) so I'm not seeking on testing 10 roms per week as I did in the past

I agree 100%, but you asked for aosp ROMs and that's it.

I just asked in case I was unaware of something, my field is computers in general and I might lack in android and surely don't know everything about it
Too bad vanilla android isn't around for every phone(nexus style roms), just bare bone android with proper drivers in it - that would be fast ...and slim
P.S. I'll try slimlp when it's out I guess(officially), thank you guys for all ur answers - Fact, it might take a while..I expect 1+1 to deliver rom sometime in late feb(or early feb with bugs ..depends) after that in March or May I should expect SlimLP ..don't take my word I'm wild guessing

SlimLP is official for this device. Even if it wasn't it really doesn't matter, it's built from the proper source.

According to their website, latest slim rom is SlimKat(kit kat)

I see no official SlimLP for our 1+1, not just yet(many unofficial ones exist ..I know)

I thought Robbie's was official, guess I was wrong. Like I said though, it really doesn't make a lick of difference, it's still built from Slim source, the One and only difference is that it's missing the official tag in the title, that's it. People all too often mistake that tag to actually mean something, it doesn't.

1+1 has already many bugs in it's latest 44S I really don't want anymore even if it's a glitched icon, a minor issue or something that most people don't care about. I see "official" as a "we've test it more than just flash it and leave it for a couple of days"
I mean you know 1+1 has issue when 3rd party camera app is installed and you try to use flash on low light enviroment right? it's probably a driver issue although FV-5 app fix this(workaround), stock camera doesn't have that bug. So in SlimLP if I use the camera does this occur in a 3rd party camera app? ..this should be solved when CM12s hits the market, dunno if it's fixed in the not so official SlimLP
I guess I better back up and try it.. what I have to lose except some time? (I did flash with my previous DHD even 5-6 times per day)

Official definitely doesn't mean that. Take CM for example, it's done by a buildbot, no testing at all, and that's completely official. I'd take Robbie's builds over an official release any day of the week. That's what I'm saying, the perception that official is better is completely false.

CM is the worst example as even cm official builds are buggy sometimes(no proper testing and I'm talking about stable released not nightlies, the guy who build the cm camera app in the past had a long post mention it - nice guy)
I did an EFS backup, did a nandroid backup and doing currently mybackup backup(I use this for apps/contacts since android 2.3.6)
