CyanogenMod-6.1 Stable released (not yet for HeroC) - Hero CDMA General

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/home/cyanogenmod-6-1-stable-has-landed
Be sure to post questions/dev questions in the correct forums.

Stable is released for a lot of devices, but I thought the CDMA Hero didn't get it yet? It's not showing up in the stable releases on the CM stable downloads section, CM Hero CDMA forums (stable and experimental), or the team douche mirror.

there is only the stable 6.0.0 version for the cdma hero on that site

correct, hopefully they are about to release rc2, so they are just waiting to post the stable so they can put both up for me no biggie, i am on 1205 jaybob red, so i already sorta have rc2, but for a lot of others that would be great!

Ah, just saw an official post about it. Didn't know they were slackin on the heroC builds.
Also, I never meant to post download links or anything, just the 'press release'.

Just in case you guys haven't seen, 6.1 stable for our Heroc is up: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/files/category/17-htc-hero-cdma/

Noob question: what does this "stable" mean? I've been running CM6 for months and have never had a real issue, it's a perfect everyday rom, so is this something big or just an affirmation of what we've already been experiencing?

Basically means that all the defects/issues reported so far during RC and nightlies have been fixed and is ready for everyday use.

Thanks for the quick reply, I am kinda new to this and was wondering what the significance really was. I am still in awe of all of these awesome developers. The things these guys can do is amazing.

6.1.0 Stable was released last night. See Official CM Page

I don't see how it will be any better than a nightly. If RC1 gets released tonight, it is nothing but yesterday's nightly + a few patches.

It just means that the code has progressed to the point where Cyanogen considers it to be RC1... from the last night's build it's running a lot better than the previous, most of the apps in the market are showing up now, and it just feels snappier.
What were you expecting?
Here is what I am expecting :
1. Now that it is stable true refinements can begin and that we can start tracking issues
2. One step closer to a final release

I believe you're going to get that with a RC release.
I would like my FM radio and wimax to work... but I'll still run CM6 with out it.
Couple of CM6 questions...
Questions:
I have full NAND root and flashed the stock rooted ROM... been waiting for a super stable CM6 with everything working (well, except for wimax). Couple of questions before i proceed:
- Is it necessary to flash the radios that comes with the CM6 builds? The radio I have now seems to be working fine and if it ain't broke, don't fix it right?
- How do I flash GAPPS? Just download the zip and flash it just like a ROM?
- Why doesn't cyanogen just package the gapps with the CM6 build... does this have something to do with his cyanogen project agreement with Google?
- When I do a NAND backup, does it include the radios?
Thanks!
Just a question. If his latest build was the rc, would it show up under a different name in a different place other than here http://mirror.kanged.net/cm/nightly/supersonic/? His newest build still has the same name progression as the nightly's.

From what i read in the git, it looks like he is taking the next nightly to rc1. The code was committed about an hour ago, not sure when the automated nightly ran....
the latest build is not rc1.

Hmmm. I'll flash the newest nightly and see if anything is majorly different. I guess we really won't be able to tell until cyan officially releases rc1 on twitter.

There's also a new video's shortcut on the home list page thing. Camera actually uses the entire screen while previewing; can't really tell any difference with recording video. Seems a bit snappier too, but it could just be in my head lol.

Dude...seriously? So the RC is a few patches from test builds, the Beta is a few patches from RC, the Gold is a few patches from Beta, SP2 is a few patches from Gold, v2.x is a few patches from SP2....
...when the hell do you get your software?

- he says you have to have the latest, but someone better qualified could probably answer this better
-yep
-google made him pull roms b/c the google stuff isnt open source. this is the workaround
-no, once you flash a radio its there
It's not an RC by ANY reasonable standard unless it's actually a release candidate. Release candidates don't have things broken. This release canidate would have 4g broken.
CM needs to hold himself to a higher standard. None of the CM6 rcs are actually RCs, and I really do not know why he is calling them that.
Im a twitter noob how do i view his feed of he has said and not others

[Q] Atrix CM7 Nightly (Nightlies) vs. atrix-dev-team betas

Probably a stupid question,
But if I want to keep up to date with CM7 on the atrix, am I better off using the very occasional builds found at atrix-dev-team or using the nightlies now being hosted through Cyanogen? (is there any/much difference?)
Thanks!

Nightlys are constantly changing stuff removed, stuff put in, some things good, somethings not so good if you're looking for the most updated and experimental go with nightlys but if you're looking for the most stable then go for betas. Thats all.

I should have been clearer, but you may have answered my question anyway. I recognize the general difference between autobuilt nightlies and betas -- I just wanted to make sure they were working from the same source (since atrix-dev-team and cyanogenmod aren't the same people)
thanks! (are they definitely the same source trees, just at different points?)
The way I understand it to have worked is that the atrix-dev team pushed code up into the nightly tree so the nightlies had official support for the atrix.
Whether or not the dev team push up their latest beta code is unknown. It would require them to merge changes with the nightlies which may or may not cause problems.
I'm fairly sure I've seen t0dbld state that the branches will remain separate at least for the foreseeable future.

[Q] Which version to install on my wildfire?

Which version to install on my wildfire?the latest version or 2.3.3?thanks (most stable and fully functional)

The wildfire only goes to 2.2 officialy. CM7 latest build has 2.3.7 and its stable (not including nightlies)
Is that version in stable or night mod?and can can you explain what nightlies is?
Nightlies, from what I know, is a build that they release every night and some times is really buggy but you get the occasional one that is stable. I just stick with the stable releases not the nightlies. Um there is a stable release out.
Here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143125
Also the easy way to install it is to use rom manager and make sure you do nandroid backup before you install any roms

Sorry to contradict you but the nightlies in my opinion are just as stable as the stable version, you see a lot of the bugs you may read about in various threads are through user error not the actual rom itself. And been able to use new features long before they are released in a stable version far outweighs the amount of bugs.
I've been on nightlies for about 4 months and only ever had 1 bug, the camera wouldn't work a couple of days ago but Arco already knew why and it was fixed the next day!

All the nightlies I've tried have been stable, I know they had problems in the early stages with bootloops etc but I've been on them since about nightly 100 and never had any major issues apart from my own stupidity.
There is a changelog knocking about somewhere. I'll see if I can find the link later.

[PRO] CynogenMod 10 OFFICIAL NIGHTLY discussion thread.

Hey folks!
The guys over at CM have officially released CM10 for our device iyokan/MK16i.
I thought it would be good if we could keep all the discussion related to that in a single thread to keep it organized and available for readers.

I have been using cm-10-20121218-NIGHTLY-iyokan.zip and all the upper versions except the latest 20121221 and 20121222... They were stable and great for daily use but it had a lot of bugs... and they have been releasing a new rom everyday since then so i thought I might for a while until we actually get a stable one...
There were no major bugs... just small ones... like low in-call volume and stuff which is probably fixed in the latest version...
Do we have a list of what's not working and other known issues?
I might give it a try over the weekend.

Read the first reply above your post. I might make a list after few people report what is working and what is not.

How is this work related to the work done by team FXP (discussed at this thread)? Is this the same build?
Or is it different?
I thought FXP was the official maintainer of CM for these devices; why is there on official, non-FXP build @ CM,
and a different, FXP build elsewhere?
Could someone please explain?
Thank you:
I guess M66B answered it in the PRO CM10 thread. It is work of the FXP team.

WILL i9500 GET A STABLE RELEASE OF CM 12.1 ?

How do you think, is there any chance for ja3g to get a stable release? Nightlies started rolling out once in 2 days already. Does this mean it is almost abandoned? Or closer to a stable release? 
 @Alberto96 , may I have your opinion on this also?

Why do you want a "stable" version? It's only a label. If a rom works then it works. It doesn't matter if it's labeled: Alpha, beta, stable, nightlies etc.

+1 to this, also i will add, the i9500 ja3g has exynos CPU and the drivers are not released, so there be always more problems to solve issues or to get an stable version of CM.
Cyanogenmod have dropped the "stable" naming label a while back. From then on releases will be named either "nightly" or "snapshot"/"milestone"(M). Any specific device will only get a Milestone/snapshot release if there is an active developer for that specific device and if that developer marks the device as ready when builds are run. Many of the devices currently getting nightly builds have no active developers and as such will not receive milestone builds. This seems to be the case for the I9505, not sure about yours, though.

Well, I had a clear reason to start this question because , actually, the ROM works, but until now, it is full of bugs. And we all know about it.
