Our official CM dev @Skrilax_CZ is working on CM14 -- just like he did CM12, CM12.1 and CM13. No device has official CM14 yet, just stuff thrown together. CM team has not released any CM14 ROMs yet.
Due to his kernel work, he's the only reason we have any custom ROMs at all -- they all use his CM kernel in their ROMs. Even BHM27 kernel is based on CM code @Skrilax_CZ wrote.

Moto X Style does not have official CM14 yet. Yes, somebody has thrown together an unofficial CM14 for that device but lots of stuff doesn't work.
@ Skrilax_CZ will release official CM14 when it's ready.

I usually start porting when CM14 official nightlies start. CM14 is just too unstable right now. Although since I have 2nd MAXX, I might look on it a bit earlier

This is just speculation as to when the first official CM14 nightlies for any device will begin, not necessarily our Quark.
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/cm14-release-date/
CM14 Release Date?
Expected on: October 2016 (2nd week). Read the below to know why we think so.
As said above, the work has started on the CM14 ROMs over at Github, the central station of the code. We already have ports of CM14 ROMs available for numerous devices, which we tried to list out in separate section below. Mind you, CyanogenMod has yet to release a ROM, as these ports are self-cooked (unofficial) ROM by users using the code available from CyanogenMod team.
Stable release of the CM14 would definitely take some time. When ROMs are stable enough to be used as daily driver, CM team will release them themselves. But let’s try to find out expected release date of that happening.
Let’s take an example. A real one. For Cyanogenmod 13, which was based on Android 6.0, it took nearly over one and a half month.
Google started rolling out the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update on October 5 last year, and uploaded it to AOSP the same day too. But it was only on November 24 that Cyanogen team released their first build of CM13. So, that’s 50 days, around 1 month and 20 days it took CM team to fork out their first CM13 build for selected devices, while most of the devices received CM13 support only later on.
We can expect similar release gap between AOSP release of Nougat and CM14’s release. As Google released the Android Nougat as an OTA to Nexus devices on August 22, to which we add the Marshmallow time gap calculated above of 50 days, our expected CM14 release date would come to October 11, that is, second week of October 2016.

Ok, I greatly appreciate it. I just got my Turbo a couple days ago and was just looking around. Once everything has been built I should be able to use the repos to port other CM based roms over to the quark devices. I'm in the middle of getting my build environment set back up since I havent done anything in quite a while. Please note though, I am not a developer. I'm just someone who knows how to build from source using other peoples work on device repos.

These are the Marshmallow ROMs currently available for our Quark devices, so you can keep up with what's being done for our device. Just a repost of mine from another thread. Once CM14 (Nougat) comes out, these will probably be updated. But there's tons of other ROMs out there people would love to have! So, thank you.

Is any developer working on AOSP Marshmallow Rom/ CM 13 for Titan, I guess it's possible to do so, if a developer has some (precious) time to work on it?? Some Non Nexus phones have got AOSP roms now
Yes they are. There are many reasons. 1. Minimal OS is on its Final 5.1.1 Build which suggests that the dev(Vatsal) is working on 6. 2. CM 12.1's First snapshot was released a while back and if you go to the thread you can see posts by devs showing screenshots of CM 13.
So does that answer your question.
p.s. Most probably we'll get CM 13 after this month but before November end (Just saying but its all up to the devs).
@LuK1337 is working on cm13
I'm thinking of working on complete vanilla AOSP, haven't started yet but probably will do sooner or later
He's doing great.. Love cm13.. ðŸ˜
Is there any custom android 6 ROM that has Moto app? I meant THIS
OR, Does the ROM support the Moto features of :
Moto Display, Moto Voice, Moto Actions, etc... if you know what I mean. If so, give the link for that ROM
I can't afford to lose this, I love this mobile for those features.
OR ELSE, Is there a separate Moto app for a ROM, if so, please give the link for ROM with that Moto app
OR, Does the app directly from the Google Play Store works? If so, give the link for that ROM
Also, if you could give me the default CM13.0 link along with this, I'd be greatful
Here, the ROM I'm asking is totally Android 6.0, Marshmallow and the device is totally MOTO X (2013)
Thank you guys for the concern, you guys rock!
If you want to use Moto display, voice, and etc features, you should stay on stock.
There is no official CM13 for Moto X yet.

No, device support ended in 5.1.
And no custom 6.0.1 rom will have the Moto functions because that's proprietary and Lenovo won't release the drivers.

To be fair the 2013 Moto G was a much more popular device than the 2013 Moto X.
Even unofficial ROMs are becoming more rare to our device, I have a Galaxy Tab S 10.5 and it received a very functional Nougat ROM just 5 days after official launch, meanwhile I don't see any interest from a kind developer in porting Nougat to our phone.
Despite that I don't see much reason to buy a new phone right now, my phone is fine even after more than 2 years owning it.
I recently acquired a Droid turbo and was surprised by the lack if development for such a nice device. I quickly learned this was mostly due to the locked bootloader that took a while to crack. But having the Maxx with unlocked bootloader, I'm still rather surprised by how little development there seems to be for these devices. Maybe I'm spoiled as my last rooted device was a Moto G which had more ROMs than you can flash in a day, mods galore and things such as MultiROM. That leads to my question...
Now that more ROMs have rolled out and bootloader can be pretty easily be unlocked, is anyone working on MultiROM for quark? I searched around and have seen no mention of it all all for Quark devices. Is there something preventing it or do we just need someone to work on it? It's handy, especially with a phone with decent storage and a variety of ROMs.
Sorry for the lengthy post and I don't mean this as a "someone needs to make this for us" post. I'm just curious as MultiROM seems to be available on most devices these days but no mention of it for Quark.

"How little development"? Your premise is faulty.
We have 9 Marshmallow ROMs, plus we had at least 5 Lollipop ROMs, and now we have a Nougat ROM before most other devices! We have a custom kernel maker -- for both Lollipop and Marshmallow -- and now that same dev is now giving us the Nougat ROM.
I've been flashing ROMs since at least 2010, have owned several Nexus devices. Plus have have configured and set up many friends' phones. I'm not a dev, but far from a newbie. I've never used MultiROM in my life and have no desire to.
However, yes we can always use more developers. Our CM dev @Skrilax_CZ got a Moto Maxx XT1225 and developed official CM for us, along with the very important kernel. Others like @bhb27 came along developed more ROMs with CM's kernel. He also developed a custom kernel and gave us official TWRP for Quark.
Except for CF's Verizon stock-based ROM, all other ROMs are based on the work of those two devs. But we do have a lot of Marshmallow ROMs, and we have one Nougat and will have more. Here's the list of current Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs. I'm not even going to bother listing Lollipop anymore -- but we had at least 5, maybe more. AICP (Marshmallow) is not mentioned since the dev never made an official thread and says he's not maintaining it anymore -- even though people keep flashing it and asking about it in his other threads (AOKP and Bliss). But that one and @iiWoodstocK's Brazilian adaptation make 9 Marshmallow ROMs for Quark. Plus of course Nougat.
There are devices like Nexus which may have more ROMs but that's a very respectable amount of development!

As I said, maybe I'm just used to having tons of options. I had a Moto G (falcon) for a while. It's a budget device from 2013 and they have Nougat ROMs, tons of MM and LP ROMs, MultiROM, several OS ports, custom kernels etc... I guess it makes sense that a cheaper phone will be easier to get in the hands of devs and more people will dev for them.
I'm not complaining... But the Quark section is much more quiet than I was used to with my old Falcon.
I appreciate all the work that anyone puts in to making custom ROMs etc. My main question here was inquiring on MultiROM. For someone who constantly flashes ROMs or tries different mods, kernels etc, it's awesome. Why backup/wipe/flash/setup all the time when you can seamlessly switch between ROMs? With 32 or 64gb of storage you could in theory have all 9 MM ROMs installed and boot to whichever one you felt like using at the moment. Weed out the ones you wouldn't use and have several to choose from without having to wipe/install or restore etc.

If I remember correctly from the moto G days, you had to have a patched kernel to work with MultiROM. I don't remember exactly what it was that was implemented within the kernel. It seems like MultiROM would be easily ported between devices since it's not specific to a particular device.. But that's only an assumption from someone who knows nothing.
I know nothing of developing, but wish I had a computer so I could try to help out.
Thanks for your work. If you have the TWRP file available, could you PM me a link?

Just remembered, it was a kexec patch that the kernel needed in moto G. Not sure if that helps you any as I have no idea what it means. But pretty sure without it, you could load ROMs on the device but they wouldn't boot without the Primary ROMs kernel being kexec patched.
Here's a link to some info about porting MultiROM. I'll keep looking in to it and if I can get a PC, I'll even try to figure it all out.

Oh, I understand. I wasn't pushing for you to make it. I was just pointing out a relevant thread. It seems pretty straight forward from that description as long as the device follows the guidelines of what works. But as I said, I'm no dev.
I can do without MultiROM but I don't know why people wouldn't want it or think it's not useful. For someone who loves to flash and use different ROMs it puts them one click away from multiple ROMs at boot.
Maybe I can come across a PC one of these days and tinker with it.

Thanks for the update.
The "lack of development" was already explained. There are plenty of ROMs to tinker with for the Quark and that is great... But venture in to the Moto G section and you will see just how many options there are for that device. I don't think it officially made it past KitKat and there are well over 9 Nougat ROMs, plus kernels, mods, etc for that phone and it's still kicking after 5 years or so.
It was never a knock on development of the Quark or "lack there of"....rather I was a bit surprised that there weren't more people with this phone and more devs pumping out builds like I was used to for the falcon. Not a big deal.

Some developer are only producing more without any care for quality or care to help in the improve of development, they are just using the known good recipe to build for that device from CM/LOS repos or wherever they fell is good, downloading the source give some commands and without any real development from they side producing a ROM, I know learn somethings takes time, but after some long time some developer don't ever try move from that side of just producing a ROM using others work to produce a ROM with they on changes/fixes and sharing that to others so the development can improve.
big community of developers working together trying to improve development great, great number of ROM/development projects not equal to that.
you are also trying to compara quark 2014 device to falcon 2013 device, a years of development on a much cheaper device is not far, as the cheapness will make it more available and popular, falcon was probably released on more markets then quark, and time will help to make people interested on to doing development to it, Droid Turbo 2 is another good sample of unpopular device for development.
I respectfully ask this question and have no intention to
offend any devs. I am currently planning to buy this phone and when
I looked at here to check on roms that I could use on my phone, I got a little overwhelmed by the lack of Nougat roms.
It is already almost 2017 and the roms are usualy lollipop or marshmallow. I expected at least to see Nougat roms.
Did the devs stopped supporting this device or about to?

yeah I am aware of the unofficial cm 14 rom but still, only one nougat rom.
I still expect more nougat rom since this is a popular phone
I read somewhere that this cm 14 rom has a lot of problems like not being able to receive and make calls. Heaven forbid if LTE with Tmobile sim even work on this rom. But correct me if i'm wrong.
I have been able to make calls with the latest build of the VZ rom. However this ROM is no longer under development since Cyanogenmod is dead. All the developers using cyanogenmod as their base are going to have to shift to something else or else they will be working with a stagnating code base. I'd expect a small period of little development for many ROMs while this shift takes place to directly using AOSP as their base or the spinoff of CM LineageOS to get up and running. As for the lack of Nougat ROMs at all. N has only been out since around Aug, and the note 4 isn't exactly a recent phone any longer. So you've got a dwindling user base with an even smaller base of developers that have the knowledge to build the ROMs still using the phone. In the end I wish the dev of that VZ Nougat ROM kept working on it. Likely all of the code fixes could be merged into LineageOS since it is the CyanogenMod code base

I use the 12/25 build as a daily driver. The only issues that affect me is: Camera(fixed with another app), Gallery(fixed with another app), sometimes screen wont wake up easy If you are on a long call.(this is rare for me). No VOLTE. Other than those things its a great rom.

I've tried installing the [ROM] [7.1.1] [UNOFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 14.1 ROM(Verizon) on my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 but am having issues with it once it reboots. The root seems to be lost and once I use SuperSU to install Root and the phone just boots in a loop. I'm guessing this has to do with the bootloader(Note4) vs Verizon. I'm not sure but could be wrong. Could someone please suggest a way to get my root on this Verizon Nougat ROM.

Don't use supersu with this rom. I learned that it's more of a headache than not. Enable developer options. CM's Root access is in there. I'm on EPJ2 baseband. Also make sure you download the extra file in the OP (Something telephony, i can't remember). You need that If you ever restore a backup or you won't have data. This rom seems to be the most battery-friendly rom I've installed for this phone. Even tho I do miss Fast Charge...
Is there a TW based 7.0+ ROM for this phone?

I think there will be no android 7.0+ touchwiz roms until samsung release official 7.0 for note 4.and sadly samsung already announced there will be no 7.0 for note 4.

I haven't tested it. I figured it was base stuff on it and I don't like basic.

this is the ORIGINAL development thread for that rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/emotionos-t3528639
its Emotion OS which is based on LineageOS (formerly Cyanogen Mod 14 aka CM 14 ). Its Nougat rom AOSP pretty much, it works fine on the N910T, ive tested and you can verify it works from the posts in that thread. You must be on a 910T Marshmallow based bootloader or the rom may not work correctly. verified working fine on EPJ2 bootloader.
So pretty much if you want it to work:
ODIN official N910TUVU2EPJ2 Samsung firmware
install recovery
flash EmotionOS from recovery

We don't need official Nougat for Note 4 for that. Just wait until Nougat is completely released for S7/Edge, and there will probably be a S7 Nougat port to the N910F/FD/T/W8/V/P/G. Plus, we'll also have an S8/Edge port (I'm sure) and that will probably be Nougat, so don't get your hopes down.
I have Nougat on my Google Pixel XL.
It works great and custom AOSP/LineageOS ROM's are all rock solid/stable.
But with no sign of Xposed being available for Nougat anytime soon, I would not be in a rush to move to Nougat if I were ya'll.
As of today, it does not look good for Xposed to ever be fully released for Nougat.
And even if it were, you'd be looking at more time before all the GOOD xposed modules are updated to work with Nougat.

this is what I've been using for awhile now. solid for me. i could recommend it
Hi all.
Just a speculative query, really. Does anyone know if there's any work underway to bring LineageOS to the Mini 2?
The [Lineage OS wiki](https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/) shows a good selection of HTC devices already have builds available. But, unfortunately, no mention of the Mini 2 yet.
Also, am I correct in my assumption that the LineageOS codebase is pretty much based on the latter CyanogenMod builds? (I'm presuming the LineageOS folks haven't started completely from scratch). If so, that sounds hopeful, as there are (in this very boutique!) CyanogenMod builds of Marshmallow for the Mini 2 --which means at least some of the work is already done.
The phone sadly wasn't very popular at launch and didn't even receive any official cm support apart from a few nightlies for cm11
But speaking of the cm13 unofficial port, the guy in charge of that is thinking of switching to Lineage OS source, so check out the link below to find out how to make that happen sooner ...

Ah. thanks for that.
I'm currently running that unofficial CM13 on the Mini 2 and, while it's pretty stable, I did worry about it becoming "abandonware", what with the demise of CyanogenMod. I'd not visited that thread for a month or two now so wasn't aware a move to LineageOS was being discussed now.

No problem
CyanogenMod == LineageOS
No code changes are needed (ok not exactly, some file rename are required) but this is the same OS, same sources etc... Only a re-brand because of Steven Kondik Cyanog3n dismissal.
