CM12 for Nexus 6? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just upgraded from a Nexus 5 and I was using the CM12 daily builds on my Nexus 5. Are their daily builds of CM12 for Nexus 6? Thanks.

Not yet no, keep checking here.

Rastapop is the closest so far, it is kinda a hybrid of mostly AOSP and some CM stuff. It is a great ROM, you should check it out.

There are no daily builds for CM12 for any phones. Those daily builds are "unofficial" builds that are not endorsed or supported by CM.
Official nightlies are expected to start sometime this month.
People have tried compiling from source for CM12 but are having problems so it is not in a bootable state for shamu.

CM 10.2 Miracast support

I confirm the latest nightly (8/20) can work on WiFi Display on Nexus 4 while it is not working on nightly (8/19). Thanks!
But new Nexus 7 is still not working on latest nightly (8/19).

Doesn't this belong in each devices' respective CM thread? It'd be a lot more helpful there.

What are nightlies

what are nightlies ? N Is it safe to install cm12.1 nightly for moto x XT1052, will everything work WiFi Bluetooth GPS data ?

A nightly is a build of a rom that is just that.... nightly (unless the build hits a snag, then you may not get a nightly for a couple days). I run the CM12.1 nighties on my Nexus 5, they work great. Keep in mind, nightlies can come with stability issues. If you are comfortable with that, flash away. If not, find the most up to date stable build and flash that, and wait until the next stable comes along.

Nightly's are builds compiled every night usually with a range of fixes submitted that day. They aren't guaranteed to be stable as they are used to make quick fixes to builds leading up to a snapshot or a stable build. I would consider them beta/alpha status. That said though, they can be quite stable given some time (for example right now CM12.1 nightly builds are pretty stable).

Cyanogen Stable

Hey guys I'm a bit confused, they CM team had said that they were releasing cm 12 and 11 stable builds but I don't see the N6 with one yet, is it not on their wik download page? Or is it just not ready yet?

Those builds are to old for our device and you should have q&a thread. Use cm 12.1 it's stable enough for a daily driver.
I'm on 12.1 and have no issues.
I am updating CM12.1 day, have some but of system ui crash, play store crash, and sudden ui freeze n auto-restart , but still not a big deal, stable enough to daily use.

5.1.1 is CM12.1 and they don`t develop 11 and 12 anymore afaik
I haven't seen a cm build actually named "stable" for years
http://www.zdnet.com/article/cyanogenmod-ditches-stable-release-for-perpetual-m/
There has not been stable builds for a while now.
Q_Q all I want is my nexus6 on a designated stable cm build..but that might not happen...I love the cm experience but the wait for it is ridiculous >,<
Are there any roms that have the subtle cm feel to it but still with all the tweaks that lead to wanting to flash it the first place?

CM is stable enough to be used as a daily driver, and yes there are several CM based roms available just use search and you will find.
People, don't be so sure of yourselves in saying things you aren't sure about!
The OP is correct. CyanogenMod's (not Cyanogen's, there's a difference) blog recently stated that the Jenkins build server was going to kickoff one final build of CM11 M12, and CM12 M1 for all devices that ever recieved official nightlies for those versions. For example, OnePlus gets, CM11 M12, CM12 M1, and continued CM12.1 nightlies, because it ran KK before LP, but Nexus 6 only gets CM12 M1, as it never ran KK.
However, due to a (seemingly unnoticed) error, Jenkins (CyanogenMod's build server) only kicked out CM11 M12 & CM12 M1 builds for the first ~15 devices (in alphabetical order of CM's phone database). I have alerted a device maintainer, and hope they look into this.
This all being said... why are people obsessing over the "M" (Milestone) build? You do realize that an M build in all actuality means very little. A Milestone build is just a nightly that is deemed stable FOR EVERY SUPPORTED DEVICE. So, many devices (like the Nexus 6) have flawless CM12.1 nightlies, while other device's (Galaxy S4 Mini perhaps?) nightlies are atrociously buggy, this causes the Milestone build to be put on hold until all devices run it flawlessly.
I run CM12.1 nightlies on my Nexus 6, and they are FLAWLESS. I can count a total of two bugs; "OK Google" detection reverts to inactive upon reboot (solved by setting up a Tasker profile which toggles "Google Voice Search Enhancements" on & off @ boot), and a lack of WiFi Calling on TMO (Scheduled to come in a nightly soon).

[Q] Is latest CM12.1 Snapshot stable enough?

Hello everyone,
I've always liked CM and the different features it offers, so I was planning to flash latest Snapshot since I would like to use it as my daily driver. What's your experience with it? Any major bugs? Is it stable enough? Or should I consider something else, such as Xposed + some modules (such as GravityBox)? I'm currently running latest stock build 5.1 (LPE23.32-14.2).
Thanks for your help.
The latest snapshot isn't bad, but I've had more success with the nightlies simply because they have patches that haven't made it into the snapshot builds yet. I'd say try out a couple nightlies and just stick with one that doesn't have any issues for you.

Could you recommend any nightly in particular to begin with?
I'm on the 10/25 nightly and haven't run into any major issues yet.
