Hi, I would like to know what happens to my note 3 or in general when I flash an official cm rom, having already an unofficial. Specifically, If I install Cm 12 unofficial with Android 5.0, when the cm12 official nighties will be available, will I lose all my data? Or it can be considered an update as among cm11 nightlies?

Hi team,
Quick question from a newbie.
What's the difference between the fw preinstalled on my opo and cm11s m11.
When cm12s will be released, both fw will receive ota at the same time?
Thanks

Cm11/cm12 is faster with updates there is already cm12
Cm11s is the same but has different lock screen and thats acualy the only thing i see is different and the only thing I like..
Cm12s will come like next year begin January.
They're both very similar but the way that the updates work for CM11 and CM11S (XNPH44S) are different.
CM11S contains some closed-source applications such as the lock screen, AudioFX (supposed to be open sourced but not yet), WhisperPush, and some other applications
CM11.... is possible to flash a zip (you'll have to find it) and make it be like CM11S since all the applications are in that zip.
Personally, I would just forget about CM11 and CM11S and flash CM12 and get in the Lollipop business as thats where all the interest is in right now.
Both, thanks for your reply.
Very useful to understand difference between CM11s/CM11.
But definitely, I'll go for CM12
Cm11s is the opo specific ROM for our phones. It has features or fixes for opo specifically. It's the "stable" version good for public release.
Cm11 is either snapshots deemed stable (example m10, m11, etc) but there's also cm11 nightlies that are not deemed stable they are built every night with usually new additions that could make things better or worse until tested
Cm11 based ROM are all KitKat ROM
Cm12 projects are all Lollipop based ROM. As you can see there's no snapshots such as cm12 m1 etc so there's no version deemed stable. In fact CyanogenMod hasn't even released one officially, everything you see here is unofficial and built by users.
Cm12 ROM are all in alpha stages but CyanogenMod is working on it at this point
I know the latest official CM11 nightly is the January 5th nightly from https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=bacon
However, there have been more recent commits to the CM11 branch as well as for the OnePlus One. Is there any unofficial CM11 builds going out there (no cherry picks, custom stuff) to incorporate the latest changes? Or would anyone be interested in doing that? (I'm too noob)
Thanks!
Any custom cm11s ROM still under development and custom kernel will have updated commits. Or download the newly released cm11s ota to update from 44s to 05q or whatever it is
Has anyone else had issues with nightly updates not showing with Cyanogenmod 12.1? They were showing up fine for 12.0. Since installing 12.1 had to manually download updates.Tried full reset.format etc.
Hi guys, i've searched an answer to this but nothing so here I am.
What are the main differences from CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightlies and CyanogenOS 12.1?
The OS is build especially for the One plus One and so?? The battery drain is different? The desing??
Do you recommend one or another?
And for finish this, why I would install a rom on my smartphone built on Cyanogen? Why I would change the kernel?
Thanks
They're from the same tree but are different branches. CM12.1 is the nightly branch, more up to date, but can be susceptible to bugs. COS12.1 is considered to be the stable branch, less up to date. There is plenty of information online on why one would use a custom kernel, just search for it.
Hi.
Running RR 6.0.1 at the moment. No doubt battery bug on CM 13.
Want to move back to 5.1.
Question: do I need to flash CM nightly 12.1 prior to clean flashing new Lollipop rom?
Thank you!!!
I would flash the last 12.1 snapshot build first just to make sure you have the best firmware.
