it means release candidate

installed last night, no issues other than the xda app isn't listed in the market while searching on the device. no idea why, just found/installed an apk.

Xda for some reason has been removed from the play store temporarily. Search forums for more on this

I downloaded it from the CM site and installed it this morning ... ADW kept force closing and the ROM was ultimately unusable. I went back to the nightly and everything is working well.

Have had no problems with this build at all. Did you do a full wipe prior to flashing? (And I don't mean just a fastboot -w or wiping Dalvik, userdata, and cache).

Any good reason to use this vs the latest weekly ?? Also, how did you find the download link ?? I was looking on the Cyanogen main page and couldn't find the Atrix at all. Must be blind ...

No, I assumed that a full wipe wasn't necessary if going from a nightly.

Sometimes you are just better off doing a full wipe as a sanitary precaution.

Updated earlier. Didnt wipe. Absolutely no problems. I actually never wipe from one version of CM to the next. I guess that's probably not a good thing. But, I've never had any problems.

I ran a full wipe and am loving the update so far

How did you install 9.30? Manually or through updater? Some themes need to be updated to be compatible with the latest build. You should get prompted though, at least i did.
If you did it manually, what did you wipe?

Look for the ROM thread that has the most number of pages, or look in the Q&A sections.
By the way this question should be posted in the Q&A section, and you should read the forum posting rules.

I agree with this. But personally, I'd go with asgard. It's been the most stable and battery friendly in my opinion.

Second that! Oh and yeah bad place to put this. Actually this question get's asked a lot, yet there is no definitive answer it seems?... I believe it is all about personal preference. MIUI seems to have a great balance of everything I could want in a phone and super user friendly customization. I searched a month for a rom... Tried most 2.3.x and while they all offer something and are greatly appreciated... I just so happen to like MIUI the best. Goodluck!
Cm7 is what many people go for, but if you google the things you can do in MIUI, then you will see it offers the most features. The non stock version that nickminn updates every friday seems to be better than any other 2.3.5 rom I have seen otherwise.. but they all have bugs, reduced battery life versus 2.2.x, and barely or non working gps.
The bugs I still had when I stopped using it a few weeks ago: media button on headphones doesn't work, if listening to music when you get a call and you answer, the music will continue to play, you have to restart it after charging(at least after long charges) or it will not go into deep sleep, and occasional sd card issues(my music player would too often not be able to find the music).. the plus side is all of the features: the notification bar being customizable and shortcuts to each toggle, the ability to theme EACH part of the UI individually, the built in backup/restore, the battery tracking, the device data usage app, the multi touch drag/drop and tons more.
Also I was getting 16-20 hours under heavy/moderate use which is the best I have seen on any ginger rom including cm7.. on ANY 2.3.5 rom you need to use cpu spy to make sure it goes into deep sleep to have good battery.
Hope this helps.. there is a large trade off using any gingerbread rom until we get the source code-- I went back to 2.2.1 because EVERYTHING works, and I simply can't kill it in 24 hours unless I TRY.. I get 24-48 hours per charge. I miss the features of MIUI, but not enough for the costs-- most of the differences between 2.2 and 2.3 is mostly cosmetic in the end.
I think he means 2.2 roms that look like GB. In that case, try Bionix 1.3.1. It should be easy to find.

why would you want a 2.2 rom that looks like 2.3 when you can have 2.3?
that's like body kitting a car to look like a ferrari when you can just get a ferrari... sure the ferrari may get worse gas mileage, but it's still definitely worth it.

cm7, miui, and there are plenty of others. cm7 is as easy as odin to jfd, root, install rom manager, flash cm7 and the gapps. miui should be the same. for any of the samsung i9k based roms you want/have to flash new bootloaders (at least that was the case last time i used one).

Hello xda , im currently running cm7 i know really old built. I purchased this nook a year back but its just been sitting in my drawer and dont pay much attention to it.

Or just try some ICS rom for the latest look and features. But don't expect the speed and the full hardware acceleration that the mature CM7 can provide.

Yep. Someone will release it within hours, you'll do a full wipe and install it. That simple! (Not from Google! Done good dev will release it after the Google event. I'd say 4-5 hrs at the most)
Questions are fine when asked at the right place. I remember telling you off at the PA thread a couple of days ago. You'd turn it to your personal thread..
