The Mokee team has started development for the Exynos variant of the S7 Edge (finally), right after kernel sources were released for Nougat by Samsung a week ago. They've already moved to nightly. They're pretty regular with their updates, with nightlies being released on a daily basis.
Best alternative to Cyanogenmod - the only difference you'll ever notice is the boot animation.
Here's a link to their downloads page:

I'm still running the Super Nexus ROM from another thread here by @angelo27093 but the updates have dried up and was on the lookout for alternatives that were as close as possible to stock Android, and was pleasantly surprised to see S7 Edge listed on Mokee's page. Will probably wait for a stable release.
P.S. I'm not the developer myself. Just wanted to get the word out about one of my favorite ROMs.

Hello everybody,
I was wondering, when will CyanogenMod 12 comes out? Will they still support all of the devices they have been supporting? Or at least, in specific, our device?
This is very exciting if/when we get this on our device. I personally will just wait on a CM as stock never really does it for me.
I know I probably shouldn't bring this up, but I can't wait to blow my friend's new iOS 8. 1 update out of the water with CM12/L.
Share your thoughts and views on the next version of CM.
First offical nightlies in december first,first snapshots will be in january.Already we have unoffical cm12 builds.

Well, Nameless ROM have burnt CM12 in ashes. According to my experience, Nameless ROM 5.0.2 is way more stable than CM12. It can be used as a daily driver.
So guys, i saw that MIUI 7 arrives with Android Version of 6.0.x
Maybe we can get it for S6 :3
Soon as the developers from CM13 get some drivers to make it beta.
Maybe arter97 or tdcfpp

I read and article that Xiaomi is working for Mi4 than i found this video
:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
They won't make it for s6 , special arter97 he doesnt like anything else than cm
When patchrom for Android 6.0 available, the MIUI port team will release an official MIUI for S6 (hopefully)
I've been waiting for miui to come to the s6. In my opinion its the most enjoyable rom on the market.
arter97 is f af.
Why haven't we seen an official CM 14.1 for hammerhead. CM 14.1 official has been released for hammerheadcaf but not regular Hammerhead. I am tired of waiting for an official release, they are dragging their feet like Google did with the original Nougat release. We have seen some unofficial development, but until official development is released network an custom kernel support isn't useful. Every unofficial CM 14.1 release hasn't supported my sim card and a custom kernel with USB fast charge.
Keep patient bro. It'll be released soon (Hope So).

They keep releasing nightlies of CM 13, they need to move on already. Hopefully the CM theme engine is fixed by then also.

You have to be more patient, you are just simply to inpatient.
CM14.1 is in its early develop stage, things have to settle, the nightly's for the regular version will come when it's time.
Good Day XDA Friends
As you can see from my tag, I am a retired developer.I was around in the days od Droid, Droid X, & Nexus G and was a member of a few outstanding teams like Team Liberty, Team Gummy, Sensei Mods, etc & had the pleasure of learning from pioneers like Chevy No.1 Droid, Jrunny16, Kejar31, Fab, etc. Things were much more cut and dry back then. Fast forward to today in the land of MM, Nougant, etc and I have a lot of catching up to do. First I would like to thank all you newer Devs who have kept Android growing & thriving beyond anything we thought possible, kudos to you guys!
I purchased a Nexus 5 to practice and learn on, but the phone will also be my daily driver, so I don't want to bomb out of the gate and brick my phone.
I am running the Google Nexus 5 with stock Android 6.0.1 build M4B30X on baseband M8974A-2.050.2.30, Kernal is 3.4.0-g99666f7.
I have rooted the phone and have unlocked the bootloader, and installed TWRP 2.8.7.1, but that is the extent of my customizations.
I would like to get into Nougant Roms and possibly CM. Not Sure what to flash next to become current.
I would appreciate any guidence you can give on my next steps as far as what my next steps should be. I'm looking at [HAMMERHEAD][7.1.1_r6] Zephyr OS v6.1 [DUI/OMS][27/12/2016] - [N5][OFFICIAL][7.1.0]Tesla N - 7.1.1_r4 [OMS] [28/12] - [CM14.1][7.1.1_r6] DARK ROM [Pixel features][Delta updates][12/29] - [ROM][N5][7.1.1_6]★ Pure Nexus ★ Substratum ★[16/12/16] [Official] CyanogenMod 14.1 for Nexus 5 (hammerhead)- [ROM] [hammerhead+caf] [7.1.1] [LOS-based] **crDroid**v1.8 - [Hammerhead][official][2016/DEC/28] Slim6 weekly 1.17 / Slim7 alpha 0.5
Could someone who is knowledgeable tell me or link me to any upsates I must haave befoe flafing?
Thanks in advance for your time! :good:

There isn't much left. The Nexus is basically unbrickable with an unlocked bootloader and TWRP, unless you corrupt a bootloader flash.
However, you have the latest bootloader and radio, so there aren't any issues there
If you want to really get into Nougat you have quite a few decent options.
In no particular order-
- Slim7 Alpha (AOSP, pretty great ROM, minimal, fantastic battery life, blows all CM ROMs out of the water in terms of battery :good:, but lacks some features that other CM ROMs have (Night Display, etc.))
- Dark ROM (CM14.1 stripped down)
- LineageOS CAF, and an unofficial non-CAF (CyanogenMod 14.1 has been renamed, and will be built under the moniker LineageOS. Non-CAF builds and the weekly builds structure will be sorted out eventually)
- NitrogenOS (fully fledged CM based and packed full of features. Everything you might have wanted with Xposed is in this ROM)
-crDroid (CM14.1 based, lots of features)
-Santosh's AOSP- constant updates, stable, most bugs have been fixed regarding HDR/screen recording/green lines while video recording
...and many more. All of these are decent daily drivers; I cannot attest to their screen recording capabilities but I do know that some do have bugs concerning that as well as Google Camera/HDR.
Please note that most Nexus 5s with non-OEM screen replacements cannot boot CAF (Snapdragon Optimized). Be sure which ROM you are flashing!
IMO CAF gives slightly better performance but is relatively unstable and results in quite a few lags across different ROMs.
I also can highly recommend the blu_spark kernel as well as the ElementalX kernel for Nougat ROMs. I prefer blu_spark for its customizability, but ElementalX is rock stable.
That's it really. Just be sure to wipe system/data/dalvik/cache before clean flashing a ROM. Never flash custom kernels/ROMs over different custom kernels/ROMs; you can generally flash the same custom kernel/ROM over a previous version of the same kernel/ROM.
I was using crDroid for a long time since first came out with N version, but now I'm using AICP, because it's AOSP based and I must say I prefer it more than CM based, I found it's power consumption is lower and lower memory footprint plus it gets constant updates, so I use it now on both D821 and G3 D855 as well...
The website I went to was:
www.resurrectionremix.com
which the download led me to
https://sourceforge.net/projects/resurrectionremix/files/
The thing is, after much investigation, I realized that the "kenzo" or "bacon" or "capricon" prefixes mean that the file is specifically meant for a specific phone model.
So... Am I right? Or can I just flash this one I downloaded to my Galaxy S6 SM-920I:
RR-N-v5.8.3-20170621-kenzo-Nightly.zip
If I'm right then, where can I find the OFFICIAL release of Resurrection Remix Nougat for S6?
I found a thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...evelopment/rom-ressurrection-remix-m-t3271228
which is the UNOFFICIAL version which makes me uncomfortable because I'm worried that the app does not have the full features of the official releases. However mainly I'm just looking into resurrection remix because of its said performance and battery life.
Also the ROM is marshmallow android 6.... I want it as android 7 :crying:
I'd recommend going to this Thread here >> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ressurection-remix-unofficial-nougat-t3548327
I installed it on my S6 Edge GM925F and am very pleased with it, there's a few more updated builds out there as well from the Nexus Rom website but not sure if it's open to be linked.
any more recommendations?
