[Q] Used Cyanogenmod Installer, but which version I've now?

Hi guys,
Recently I've used Cyanogenmod Installer to install Cyanogenmod on my HTC One M7, now I've Cyanogenmod 11.0 (XNPQ32P) and the build date is "Wed Aug 6" (build number KTU84Q). But which version is really installed? If I take a look here: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=m7 I can't find a stable or RC version so I'm assuming I've got a snapshot, but there isn't one from 6 Aug... And there are already new snapshots, so why does the updater don't see these?
My questions:
1) Which Cyanogenmod version does Cyanogenmod Installer install?
2) Which channel does this version follow for updates?
3) Do I make a chance to get an update to Lollipop through the updater when it's available?
I hope someone can help me out!
Thanks in advance!

lollipop is Cyanogen 12 you won't get the update running 11
if you want the latest nightly version just download it to the phone and flash it

Thanks for your reply! Does anyone have the answers to my first and second question?

settings --> about --> Cyanogenmod version

As written in my first post I know it's CM 11 and I know the build date (6 Aug 2014) but I can't find this version on the CM download page, so I think the CM installer installs an other version... And I've no idea which channel this version follows for updates. I hope someone can help me out with that.

When you install cyanogenmod using the installer you'll only get updates when there is a newer stable or snapshot release. Don't know why its not updating to the latest snapshot, maybe they are using a different channel for the installer.
Why not flashing the latest snapshot? Then you'll be able to choose which channel (nightly/stable/snapshot) you want to use for updates?

Thanks for your reply! I've no idea why I don't receive any new updates, I'll try on the CyanogenMod forum, thanks again!
Edit: just found it: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/93185-when-will-your-device-see-an-update/ it's another version, not the CM community version.

This post also explain it
the one-click installer uses code from a separately maintained and tested branch of CM that is not related nor can be compared to the community builds. It will only install stable builds that are tested by our QA engineers in our offices.
(...)
Stable builds will still be available for one-click devices when they are ready to be rolled out.
(...)
If you are wanting more rapid updates, my suggestion is to switch over to community builds.

So if you want updates, flash a CM zip

Yes, I've read it and that explains why, thanks again! I'm helped!

Nexus 6 factory images

I was looking at the Nexus 6 factory images. It looks like it jumps from 6.0 to 7.1.1, then back to 6.0, then 7.1.1......is this an error or were the 7.1.1 beta builds ?
Also is Google still making factory images for the Nexus 6 ? I thought that development was over for it, but I am pleased to see not so.

Take a look at the "shamu" section: https://developers.google.com/android/images
It's all there.
EDIT: I think you are affirming that =P Yes, we're going to receive security updates from now on. 7.1.1 is the final Android version.

Google is releasing three builds per month. One build for android 6.0, one for android 7.0 and one for android 7.1.1
Development was over at android 7.1.1 And all build has security patches only.

Correct, I was just confirming that the security updates were being rolled out. Then after Nov that's it huh ? Only custom development ? This is my first Nexus where development will stop /

Well, every Nexus get software updates from Google during 2 years.
Seeing all the ROMs in development/original development, the Nexus 6 is far from being dead... :good:

...or, you can just ask me and build for Android 6.0. Or at least try to understand why it WON'T work on API23 and below. Due to the amount of lambda (non retrolambda) and Java 8 code inside including Kotlin support.
But you explicitly did something that I told you not to. Thread will be requested to be closed until further notice.

How downgrade my Fire 7 9th tablet to Android 5.0?

I have a friend who wants to install an app that only works on android 5.0 (or lower) don't ask me why. So he bought 2 Fire 7 9th devices and asked me if I know how to downgrade to android 5.0 so he can be able to install his app. So, do you guys know a good tutorial teaching how to do it?

The stock rom is on 7.1.2 and you can't downgrade it to 5.0.0 and you may need to add the max API level to 25 which is nougat
