What is difference between the Cm7 nightly and weekly rom and which one is better?
Do i need to take care switching from Nightly to weekly or just flash and do the 2 wipes?

You're better off just staying on the latest build, and not using the nightly or weekly builds. These are not considered 'stable, daily driver' builds, and are aimed at the more experienced user who doesn't shudder at the thought of soft-bricking, or losing data.

Agreed. Although I have to add that I've been on Weekly 2 w FP for almost a week with no issues, and the best battery life is the best I have ever had!

How does the FP work in your build? I've heard mixed reviews about it.
I got the nightly build and my browser is crashing sometimes.
Is the stable one (no nightly ) the weekly build?
If yes why does it say that the fingerprintscanner is not working or is it not updatet yet?
I've had no problem with any of the nightlies I've run. Also no need to wipe when switching between cm7 builds. I haven't wiped since the first pre-beta.

The thread "No Nightly Ba2tf" is the current stable and there is a thread for weekly builds courtesy of the atrix-dev-team in the development section. Nightlys are on the get.cm download site.
I normally run nightlys with limited problems and haven't tried a weekly yet but was thinking about it. Most people just stick with the stable builds from the first thread I mentioned

Works great for me, better than blur!! Its more responsive, you can swipe upside down (imagine holing the phone sideways and just swiping your left index finger the "wrong" way and being able to unlock), And it works as a trackball. Very cool.
I flashed today the weekly build and wanted to try the FP somehow the phone turned off and the motorola logo was showing after turning on.
It was really weird, so i flashed the stable one and i still get browser forcecloses sometimes and that really annoys me.

No force closes here. Maybe you need a fresh flash with wipes.

I think pretty much everything works now with the latest cm7 builds. Of course, there are going to be several more bugs fixed that you may or may not ever run across.
I have flashed cm7 nightlies every night from build #7, it might be working but it is not working on my Incredible...the MMS is received but video won't play and the sound won't play either, usually a qcp file... this has been my only issue on every build, any help is greatly appreciated, thank you

How have you been installing the nightly builds? Just flashing over? Clearing Dalvik and cache? Full wipe? If you've just been flashing over try clearing Dalvik and the cache. If that fails then do a nandroid backup and full wipe and reflash.
Agreed, it is really amazing
I'm looking forward to trying this ROM, but I'm loving my device right now while running Virtuous w/ Lou's #9 kernel. Everything works, is fast and very stable. Maybe after I get back from vacation next week the CM7 team will have most of the kinks worked out. Can't wait!
There aren't any kinks, that's the point
They're very close to a RC
I noticed with build 19 that notification beeps now come out as BEEPSQUAKPPP really loud and distorted (sorry for the bad sound effect impression). Is anyone else having this problem? Specifically I noticed it when connecting to BT Speakerphone and SMS inbound.
i started flashing these around #10. really great build so far. i may switch to CM7 as a daily once the final is released.

Yes, they are close, but the reason they aren't there yet is because there are still a few kinks. They're calling it RC0 right now, but I'm not sure what to think of that. The following definition is from Wikipedia:
"The term release candidate (RC) refers to a version with potential to be a final product, ready to release unless fatal bugs emerge. In this stage of product stabilization, all product features have been designed, coded and tested through one or more beta cycles with no known showstopper-class bug."
CM7 skipped right over Beta. It went straight from Alpha to RC0. Maybe the thinking is, with so many people flashing the nightly builds that suffices as Beta testing.

According to their post, it is still Alpha. Not Beta, Not RC. It is Alpha.
So, will RC1 == beta??? I don't know, but at this point, I would say technically yes because they are still putting in new features every few days. That, by defination, is alpha. Beta would be testing and fixing, testing and fixing. RC would be they think it is done, lets do one more full-on test. If a problem is found, fix and increment RC. If none found, release as final version.
Also, at this point, there is no bugtracker for CM7. That would indicate alpha, where bugs upcoming features are still internal to the devs. Usually, during beta, public bugtracking is provided to get everything working on a broad scale and to accept additional feature requests.

Tell me how you really feel...
Battery life
I am really liking the nightly builds as well.
I am on build #20 now and everything seems to be working just fine.
Except the battery life. My battery only last ~8 hours now. Looks like it is just being killed by the display. The display used 70% of the battery with an uptime of 2 hours.
I may have to switch back to another ROM if I can't get better battery life that 8 hours.
I'm on CM7 #19 - Anyone notice that the Pinch to Zoom in the browser is not re-sizing the text wraparound properly. Takes like 3 or 4 attempts to get it right.
Is it just me or are others seeing this as well?
im on 22 with the beta kernel and this thing rocks, should be an rc imo as it is, I havent had issues since the first omgb and evervolvs, never had a prob with crackflashers or nightlies. I have even gone back to other roms, they never make it thru the day on my phone. CM7 is THE ROM!
#24. Wow!

Hard to believe these aren't listed as RC1, running very smooth!
Which ROM do you feel works the best for your Vibrant? Of course this is a matter of opinion, which is exactly what I want to hear. I'm running CM 10.1.3 right now and enjoying it. At times it can feel a little bit sluggish but I don't know if it's the ROM or my phone. I'd also be interested in hearing about your experiences with battery life in each ROM. I've been thinking of trying CyanAOSP because it's less cluttered and I have a hunch it would be more snappy.
Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules, I just wanted a really recent thread comparing the strengths and weaknesses of all the recent Jellybean ROMs. This isn't a question thread, it's more of an opinion thread.
I'm using CM10.2 build date - 10/15 for a day now. Have no problems. Everything works fine, including GPS after ds. Battery drain is normal.

DS is DeepSleep. Its a state in which the phone uses minimal battery and thus the battery is saved.

If you mean the official CM 10.1.3, yes I tried it. It is stable and smooth. You can use it as a daily driver.

I just saw that you were using CyanAOSP. How would you compare it to CM 10.1.3 and 10.2?
Also, do you know where I can get the 1.75 ROM? I've heard the 2.0 has problems.
been running cyanaosp 2.0 since its release and its been fine beside a few random reboots, but im sure it was cause i had my device oc'd to high. this rom is perfect for me as i play alot of games.
Hi all,
New member of the forums, but I've been reading as much as I can about my Vibrant (Fascinate?) and I'm still kind of confused as to which model my phone really is. It's a Telus model sgh-t959d, but after flashing CyanAOSP 3.0.0 for the i9000, my phone info shows model GT-i9000. I understand there are similarities between these devices, but I was a little nervous about bricking my phone by flashing the wrong ROM. Well, it was a painless process that took less than 2 minutes! I upgraded from PassionICS, which was a good ROM, but kind of laggy. After a day of use, I can say CyanAOSP is much quicker, more refined and more fun to use. The customizations offered by Nova launcher are quite extensive and make it feel like a new phone. I highly recommend this ROM! Many thanks to the hard working devs!
Anybody have kernel recommendations to get more battery life out of CM 10.1 or 2?
CM
Im using CM 10.1.3 stable, think this is a best and stable ROM
I was using one of the CM 10.2 nightlies (10/25 specifically) for about a week before giving up on some serious battery drain and background android OS data usage issues... First time I ever exceeded my 5gig threshold pushing me down to slower speeds. Also USB data transfer simply stopped working after about a week... couldn't even mount via recovery.
Ultimately had to get new ROM files into my phone via the microSD/USB adapter and internally transferring to the internal directory.
That said, CM 10.2 itself is a very pleasant experience if you can avoid such issues - In hindsight I'd strongly suggest giving it a try but with a build that's known to be stable and without any such major issues if you intend to use it as a daily driver (the 10/15 build has been recommended more than once in my forum trawling). Lesson learned!
I made the switch last Saturday (6 days ago) to SlimBean Build 2 however, which is also based on 4.3.1. By comparison to my last experience, this has zero issues falling back to deep sleep, even after loading it down with all my favorite apps and sync settings. I've had one random reset to recovery in the middle of a phone call, and gps performance has been hit or miss so far, but otherwise there's a lot to like! Battery is back to respectable charging intervals and background data is in check. ROM itself is very zippy. Lock screen by comparison to CM 10.2 seems slightly sluggish to respond. I'll likely be sticking with this for a while.
First Cm11 nightly has dropped for yuga.
Very stable, easily ready for daily driver.
I upgraded from 10.2 without full wipe and there seems to be no issues.
Do you use viber voip app?if you do use it lemme know whether there's a stutter when you record voice message. cause all of the CM11 builds that issue,
I tested with my friends phone and he has the same issue. and on nexus 5 there's no stutter at all.
is it possible tpo make black contact list,phone, sms ?

i cannot understand how smooth and stable it is when 10.2 and 10.1 started off so buggy in their initial stages. Hats off to the CM and FXP team a thousand fold.

At the moment the phone app is white, but the dialer is black. Looks weird. Hopefully this is improved.
People and sms apps appear to be theme-able. I have a transparent theme so those are transparent for me so my wallpaper displays.

It is very stable for a first release. I haven't had one fc or rendering issue so far. Battery seems to be a little better than the last 10.2 nightly too.

Did you install gapps again for 4.4? afaik playstore will not connect if you are using 4.4 with the gapps provided for 4.3
Yes, installed 4.4 gapps from CM wiki.
I rebooted into CWM, backed up!, cleared caches, installed ROM, installed gapps, cleared caches again, rebooted...
I still have CM11 on my Sprint S4, one of the Milestone releases. But I'm thinking about taking the lollipop plunge.
Can anyone tell me how the nightlies are on the jfltespr? Stable enough for everyday use? (Everything working, not crashing often, etc)
thanks

BlissPop just dropped for us, it's running great so far
I ended up going with today's build. I miss the flashlight shortcut on lock screen, have any idea how to enable that?
I just picked up my trusty Oneplus2, and flashed aospextended rom v5.5 running off android 8.1
Official thread has been closed :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-title-aospextended-rom-v3-1-t3547713/page128
When the phone goes to the lock screen, the screen does not turn off, it displays the date, time, and battery %.
Which setting do I have to play with to get the screen off when locked?
The battery on this phone is not what it used to be.
Wait a little, a new aex is almost done for release, it should have best battery life and more stable.

Both AEX and RR, just follow the link in the official thread.
I also find lots of unofficial ports for my phones by searching for the device name on android file host, then sorting by date.
That's not a good thing
they can be untested builds which can cause problems so better not go for such builds
wait for the tested once! ALWAYS
Or don't complain about those ROMs

This might be my first post here, but I've been a long time flasher, since nexus s, and I'm at home with this stuff. I've saved many a bricked phone with some handy adb knowhow.
I also know what alpha, beta, nightly, weekly and stable builds are, and look for those in the file names.
I'm now running the latest RR which came out earlier today, and its running great.
I'll keep my eye out for the next aex, as it has quickly become my fav ROM across all my devices.
In regular rotation, across a few phones and tablets, I've used DU, aicp, RR, lineage and aex.
I've also used omni and pa, but not in awhile.
