[ROM][CM12.1][Lollipop][Android 5.1.1] JBL Nightly Builds topic

Since Euroskank has discontinued his nightly CM12.1 builds for the Verizon S4, I've decided to pick up where he left off. These nightly builds will be very similar to what you'd seen from him, as they're essentially CM12.1 nightlies with some interesting cherry picks along the way.

Latest CM12.1 Changes Merged: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/st...ch:cm-12.1,n,z

Note that the cherry picks included in my builds are listed on the right-hand side of the page.
In addition to cherry picks from CM's gerrit, I have also included two custom changes:

• Hosts file based ad blocking, compiled from several reputable sources online
  • Specifically: adaway.org, hosts-file.net, and pgl.yoyo.org
  
  


• The boot animation from the Euroskank builds

Disclaimers:

• First and foremost, I am not responsible if any of these nightlies breaks your phone. They are up-to-the-minute (as of compile time) builds with some cherry picks that haven't been completely tested. Things can and will go wrong. You've been warned. Make a backup and know how to recover your phone from situations like boot loops before trying to flash this ROM.


• These builds are for the Verizon Galaxy S4 variant (jfltevzw) ONLY. If you flash this build on any other device, it is not guaranteed to work and likely to cause you to have a bad day.


• This ROM is CyanogenMod based. It WILL NOT operate on a phone with a bootloader version after MDK. It WILL NOT work with SafeStrap. Do not try.


• These builds do not include gapps. CyanogenMod is designed to work independent of the Google applications. If you'd like them, please feel free to download a package from another source.


• Please let me know if you have any problems with the website operation or bandwidth (slow downloads, timeouts, etc). My server should be adequate, but I'm unsure how many people may try to download.


• While these builds are nightlies, they are not guaranteed to be built on a nightly basis. I am building them manually, so if I am too busy, then a day or two might be missed here or there. I will typically leave the most current build and one or two previous builds on the server. I won't be keeping a long-term history of builds.


• I may discontinue these builds at any time. I am likely upgrading to a Nexus 6 (shamu) in a few weeks, but if there's enough interest, I will continue to build for this device also. Note that if/when this change occurs, I will not have an S4 to test builds on and all builds beyond that point will be untested. Frankly, I'm only creating this ROM as a stop-gap since Euroskank stopped building for the device and I don't see any similar ROMs.


• Suggestions and bug reports are welcome. If there are bug reports, I ask that you include as much information as possible and a logcat when able. I reserve the right to ignore any suggestions or bug reports if I feel that they do not warrant attention. I cannot troubleshoot issues if you are using a kernel other than the CM default kernel included in this ROM. Please do not post bug reports if you're using a custom kernel.

Credits/Thanks:

• I take no credit for the code that goes into these builds. This is a kang of CyanogenMod. All credit goes to the CyanogenMod team and the wonderful people who contribute code updates to their gerrit.


• An extra thanks goes out to Euroskank. I've been using your builds for several years, dating back to my old Galaxy Nexus (toro). They've always been top quality. Thank you for building for the S4 as long as you did.

Note: The web server will be undergoing maintenance on May 18th. It will be down for several hours in the evening while hardware is upgraded. Please don't post during this time saying that the website is down. I will try to put up a page stating that maintenance is occurring. This note will be removed when maintenance is complete.
