Works in A500Y
Sorry, I took your zip, modify the installation script and installed in another variant. Your ROM works perfectly in A500Y except the camera does not capture photos. Sorry if that upset you :fingers-crossed: . Apart from the browser downloads do not work, either file browser, and gapps crashed after installation. Anyway, good job, congratulations

I launched as a beta tester of this new rom
First look :
Importants :
1) Battery life is very low (fast unloading)
2) Random reboot
3) Very slow connection to the wireless network
Crash :
1 ) Privacy -> Blocked caller list -> Settings
Others :
1) Unlocking very slow sim card
2) Stop and reboot very slow
3) Files manager does not work
4) Long press on icon of drop down does not display the desired menu
Other things will be added progressively

Most of those issues are due to CM still merging their code and adding their features. So you should not waste your time looking for bugs just yet. I'm well aware of the situation

That does not mean they are all caused by CyanogenMod

---

that's why I said "most". I'm using cm13 for 3 days now and I have never had any random reboots, battery life is about the same if not even better. Ofc I'm using a private build with a few patches that are not merged in cm yet, so as soon as cm merges them I'll upload a new build

---

@TheWhisp i can say the same think as you
Battery life is a lot better it is very fast and stabel
