[Q] ghost or moto_msm8960 ? - Moto X Q&A

Hi, I want to flash cm12 on the Moto X (2013) Verizon Dev Edition that I just got. I know that I have to flash CM11 first, then CM12. I tried going to download.cyanogenmod.org looking for a stable CM11 ghost build. However, all of the links are broken (including for nightly CM11). Links for other devices work.
I have two questions:
1.) What's the difference between "ghost" and "moto_msm8960" ? Under the wiki for moto_msm8960 it says that it is also known as "ghost". So which one do I need to flash for my device?
2.) Does it matter if I flash a nightly, snapshot, or milestone build of CM11?
Thanks!!

Do you know what version of TWRP I should be using? I am on the latest version but I get an error "error executing binary" when trying to flash CM11.

Yes, there're here CM11 STABLE Releases
You'll need CWM 6.x recovery, a based CWM6 recovery or TWRP 2.7.0.0 recovery to flash those ROM correctly
Finally here you'll find CM11/OMNI/OMEGA roms, you can flash using a CWM 5.x based recovery

Exactly. The author has only modified the update-script so that we can flash it from CWM 5 rather than from CWM 6

Last I remembered, I flash Crystal ROM..... Month ago, so I was mistaking �� The ROM works but some settings dont.
Patch file 404, fail.
It wouldn't load for me either, it says
"Sorry, the file you have requested does not exist.
Please check the address and try again. ".
How bad is the camera on CM? From what I understand the camera for the L90 isn't working properly under CM11, taking poor quality photos. Are there any other issues? I love CM but a stripped factory ROM is working great right now on my D415.

I have a D415 running the latest nightly build of official CM11, with BigMajster's patch. Here are the major issues I've encountered so far:
Video playback doesn't work for Netflix or NBC, but it works for browser (HTML5), YouTube, and FIOS Mobile.
Camera doesn't autofocus
Bluetooth streaming cuts out frequently
Random reboots (every 2 days or so)
It's worth noting that the battery life is fantastic compared to my Optimus G and iPhone 4S (never used the L90 on stock firmware, so I can't compare builds). My phone rarely goes under 30% before 9PM, and I regularly get 12 hours of battery with 4.5 hours of screen on time (web browsing and streaming video). I barely use my car charger anymore.
Just tried it with last nights NIGHTLY.
still no video recording.
Gps is about 2300 miles off. LOL
Runs smooth. Less glitchy. Feels good. Didn't stick with it long though....
...went back to CM12 for my daily driver..
Running this mornings w7 NIGHTLY (http://get.cm/get/nxh) on my D415.
My God, someone has been putting work in!
The device is smoother, boots much quicker, screen is far more responsive now too!
The three reboots I have done also recognized the SIM faster too. It usually takes about a minute to recognize the network. This time, four seconds! Nice!
It's much less glitchy, again. Lets see of it still über deep sleeps?
Don't know if any of that is from this mornings update, but this device is running much better than it was last night.
When I woke up this morning:
Dirty flashed over existing CM11 system. (With one eye open, still in bed)
Bootloops, my favorite breakfast!
Flashed @BigMajster kernel (patch).
Perfekt again!
Only been running for about 1.5hrs but, it's noticeably better.. I recommend it.

Yes. For CM11 you need to install the LG IR app and SDK apps that go with it.
There's a thread about it with downloads. I'd blame @shinobisoft for that fix, if I'm not mistaken...
..but it works on CM11 w7 OFFICIAL. As does the Quick button with LG utilities app... Which is a friggen God send!

CM 12 won't install on H/K m8

I just had my m8 replaced from asurion and my old device was running cm 12 nightly builds just fine. My new device won't install any of the builds. The TWRP log says this package is meant for htc_m8, htc_m8whl, htc_mwl, m8, m8wl etc. but this device is m8_whl. It's the same exact model number it doesn't make any sense. Do i need to change the device name somehow or what? pls and thanks if you help.

Cyanogenmod

Hey guys! So I was googling around trying to find out if cyanogenmod has a public list that shows the priority of their phones. Like, if they follow a pattern. Can someone direct me where to find that if it exists somewhere? I see they're rolling out cm 13 and I'm anxious to know when it will reach my shamu!

Nexus 6 7.1 Image Download?

Hey guys,
I've been looking around for the Nexus 6 7.1 preview image but can't find it on the developer preview website. It just shows the 6P, 5X, and Pixel C.
I know I can flash a stock image and then take the developer preview OTA but I'd rather just fastboot flash it. Am I just looking in the wrong places?
Thanks for the help!
It doesn't exist yet. We will probably get something in November/December. 7.1.1 preview?
