    HTC Desire 816 CM13 (CyanogenMod 13 Marshmallow) ROM has now arrived. Please have a look on the working and not-working features list before you go for flashing. Aslo, it is strongly recommended to have a BACKUP of current ROM before you go to flash this ROM. I have added two ROM links; one from bigsupersquid and another from Garak.

Neither the developer nor we will be held responsible for any disaster that happens to your device.

    Or else if you are on a pc with USB driver and adb installed, then type the following command:

    First of thanks a lot of releasing CM updates for HTC desire 816, although its old phone.
    I installed CM13 in my HTC desire without any issues. Everything is working smoothly including camera. Only bug I found is while playing music, theres some disturbances in heavy beat songs, however playing with earphones are fine.
