Hello there,
I recently moved to cyanogenmod 11 on my xperia ZR, and found it extremely good and stable.
Although we still dont have a stable CM12 for ZR, but ported ones are available, and giving in for the love for lollipop, i did try them too, but there are quite a few bugs.
So, Just wanted to ask, what everyone of you prefers,
A stable CM11 or a buggy but newer CM12.

I am on CM11. I don't prefer cm12 and use it for testing if any one asks!

the latest CM12 build of xenius9 seems stable for me. I prefer CM12. Little bugs don't bother me. The sheer smoothness and fresh-look of the whole user interface make me use CM12.:good:

I am too using that build, and i second ur opinion, CM12 does give a fresh look to the device.
stable cm12 will come soon
I bought this ZR a year or so ago and the phone has been on non-stock ROM's ever since day 1 inc a unlocked boot-loader since the same time. I've tried every ROM posted in the ZR section from the Xperienz onwards inc the CM11..
The CM11 nightlies were also "unstable" depending on the nightly chosen and I often had to flash back to a stable CM11 because of bugs in that particular CM11 nightly.
All the CM builds are constantly evolving and it's kind of the charm about flashing a new CM11 or 12 because we never quite know what we're going to get.
I used to be involved in the Nokia scene, modding etc, for the last few years and i like messing around, trying new things on the phone and im currently on the CM12 02-02-2015 Validus port (have been since it was ported by uncomment because it is stable with good features) and there are some amazing work being done by xenius9, Deadroza, uncomment and others giving us ZR users a choice..
The nice thing about CM12 is the interface but the development within CM12 is awesome and I for one would take a dirty, "unstable" CM12 anytime over a stable anything, inc stock ROM..
Hi
I have the same feeling about new LP ROMs...
We have only some ported LP ROMs with bugs. And the KK ROM are all discontinued.
I tried a LP ROM (don't remember which one) and finally I'm back to KK. The design of LP is very refreshing and it's a great sensation when your ZR seems to have reborn.
There is some problems that bother me like :
- The notification LED don't works in silent mode. On Z, the LED still work when we disable the vibrator.
- The data switch is crappy. We have to press a least 3 times to activate or desactivate the data instead of just 1 time on quick settings of KK. It's the same problem for localisation switch. On KK we can choose the localisation mode quickly by pressing the same button again.
- The bluetooth audio. It works great but after some connections the sound is not play in the peripheral. We have to restart the phone to have a fonctional bluetooth back.
Due to this little but boring things I'm on a MokeeKK ROM since the begin of febuary...
Do you know if some of this things are solved? I don't have the courage to try a LP ROM just to find out if there is some evolutions. And if there is some evolutions, which ROM did you advise me? CM12, CM12.1, Resurrection Remix?
Thanks in advance

Oh! I think the best answer is try it for your self for some day. You can backup your full rom to restore if you dont like it

If I ask people about this things it's because it's easy for LP users to check it and tell me if there is an evolution since january LP builds.
It's easy to check the problem of LED and tell me if there is and evolution concerning the switches of data and localisation.
I know that I can make a full backup of my KK ROM but I'm busy.
If somebody can help me, it will be nice.

I'm on the latest Resurrection port by uncomment (5.4.0) and i can confirm the led works in silent mode and the switches are all working.. as for bluetooth, no comment as i don't use it but the build/port is smooth and accurate with good settings additions and very few bugs... In fact i personally have found none..

Hi. i want to know where i can get best speed and battery. I want to know your experience
And please only cm stats
On 4.4.4 (kitkat based rom) I was able to get 3 days battery backup, for performance I like 6.0 stock
Just to mention I have never been able to like any Rom based on Lollipop firmware
I would say, marshmallow>Kitkat>lollipop (cm official with default kernel)
The last CM 12.1 nightlies are very stable and I get easily 4-5 hours of SoT (some users report even more 6h), which is enough for me, and I definitely can't complain about performance which is great. For me the best rom for G2 so far.
Hmm thanks you :v Waiting for more because your opinions are contradictory
Best mix of performance and battery so far: Minimal OS 5.1.1. Have to say that I haven´t checked out marshmallow til now, I´m very satisfied with this rom and don´t have a reason to change atm.
Stock marshmallow soak test is the best so far, and i´ve flashed A LOT of roms.
CM :
4.4 : I haven't tested long enough to decide on anything.
5.1 : Snapshots are really stable and pretty balanced.
6.0 : Using Vatsals Optimised Builds. Its amazing. Check his new Rom /Kernel thread for info.
I can get like 5 hours of screen on time with CM 12.1 and a nice performance
Just installed cm 12.1. It's little laggy.
Thanks for answers i will test minimal os and check Vatsals Optimised Builds (also i'll add this to the Index :v).
Waiting for more :v
Battery is awesome in Marshmallow with doze mode. Even the performance has been great.

You are awesome like this rom! Thanks you very very much dude. I love this rom. I can have 5 apps in background and 0 lag. When I open 3 apps on cm11 everything gets laggy and unusable. 6.0 is broken by now (apps not working)
Anyway minimal os don't have massaging app and camera xD
Its "Minimal" Os, it'll be as minimalistic as possible.
So I switched over from Vatsals Opti Cm Builds to Tamaseks Unofficial Cm 13 and I've got to say. Its kinda good. Some things good and some bad (the usual). But still its in its early stages so can't expect much from MM. Gone back to LP for now.

i ask about which is the best rom from both ? specifically for battery
my using is : facebook and whatsapp .
battery life:cm13>los 14.1
smooth:los 14.1>>>cm13
I used sultan cm13 last week without problems ..shifted to nougat & flashed sultan cm13 again. Everything works gr8 but when I share photos through WhatsApp the device restarts . Can anyone provide the firmware link (not the 1.4 GB)
Specifically for "Battery" ? Use stock ROM.
I installed both tried both, If you are looking for battery , more specifically screen on time, then go for official OS. Official Nougat 4.1.3 gives me 5-8 hours screen on time, depending on use. Sultan ROM lineage 14.1 sometimes heats up, battery backup seems 4-6 hours merely.

Must be something you're doing wrong. I've got as high as 10 hours SOT, and definitely over 6 hours "all the time". I have literally stopped using custom roms in the long run since I experienced OOS. Yes I hop on to different roms to test, but so far nothing beats OOS in terms of battery life, smoothness and definitely no bugs.
About sultan rom, dude, I don't know when the hype will finally be laid to rest. I have no clue if the fanboys ever actually "'compared" it extensively. I've done extensive tests long time back with my OnePlus one, and all I found that it's just a plain old hype, made a big comment in boeffla kernel thread back in the OPO days and even Andi agrees to the hype. Haven't tested lately, so it will be unfair if I judge on how good or bad the ROM is for OP3T, but I sure know what to expect. Get down of the hype train, test for yourself in different usage patterns. SOT isn't everything of course. Your usage determines it.

You'll end up with a lot of answers on this because everyone uses their phone differently. Honestly, I tend to try about any ROM for a day or two or maybe a week at most just to see "what's new". In the end, I end up back with the latest stock OS / Magisk / Xposed, and a custom kernel of some sort as I've found this the most "stable" for my use.

Which kernel do you use?
I've tried quite a few, but EX seems to work well overall (also has a nice kernel manager). One thing to remember, if you are trying different kernels, make sure to flash the stock one in between.

I found this on another website, not sure if it will help you or not:
Here’s how to do enable VoLTE on your Verizon Nexus 6.
Step 1. Fire up your device’s dialer. And dial *#*#4636#*#* to access hidden menu.
Step 2. Now, select ‘Phone information’.
Step 3. Next, tap on the TURN ON VOLTE PROVISIONED FLAG button. No changes would occur though, and it’s fine.
Step 4. Now tap on the TURN OFF RADIO button.
Step 5. Wait a few seconds now and let radio get turned off. Then turn the radio on after that by tapping TURN ON RADIO button.
Step 6. You’ll be able to see that TURN ON VOLTE PROVISIONED FLAG BUTTON is now changed to TURN OFF.
Step 7. That’s it. Now go to Settings > More > Cellular networks, and keep the Enhanced 4G LTE is enabled.

Hello there i'm using RR 6 unofficial by Arasthel https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=249040
Is FaceUnlock working for you? i got errors in logcat and it's not working for me.
here my setup :
twrp-3.2.1-0-chiron_raupe-20180218-1202_LOS.img

RR-O-v6.0.0-20180222-chiron-Unofficial.zip
open_gapps-arm64-8.1-aroma-20180221-UNOFFICIAL.zip
edit after 2 weeks, rom is great and battery life is good, not issues at all except faceunlock not working and my usb headphones not working for calls but working for everything else.
Same issue for me. I tried faceunlock magisk module because it works fine with RR 6.0 on my s7 edge
Awesome !
ATM, is enought stable to use it as a daily driver? I mean, calls and camera (i don't want super quality, just something working) works ?

What is your exact flashing order? Did you do a completely clean flash or did you flash the kernel and FW without wiping and formatting data?
This is what I flashed, maybe try another clean flash and do exactly what I did

Can you please tell me what exactly you did that your gcam is working? i already tried everything possible, but only the old version 3.x.x from B-S-G is working.
