Stable, final version, more features. (2.2 Froyo) Best for new flashers.
I repackaged Motafoca's 2.0.9 for ClockworkMod: http://www.madteam.co/forum/develop...foca-froyo-2-0-9-rom-clockworkmod-edition/40/
CyanogenMod 7.1 "Galaxy5" Port.....
simply amazing!!!!!!!!!!

cyanogenmod v1.3...
hotfix2
Motafoca 2.0.9 and CM7 1.3 work really well for me. Although the CM7 1.3 has an issue with remembering the default app, it is not a big problem to me

Ba2tf is a beta release by the Atrix dev. team, who originally ported CM7 to the Atrix; it includes Atrix specific fixes from the previous beta release.
The nightlys are released by the CyagonMod dev. team, based off of the work provided by the Atrix dev. team. The nightly updates include fixes, new test build ideas, etc. that have to do with CM7 in general, and may or may not include specific updates for the Olympus (aka the Atrix).
The nightlys and also the Atrix dev team beta builds have been suspended more or less, due to the fact that most of the members of both dev teams are allocating their resources towards working on getting CM9 out. Last estimate I herd of a release candidate for CM9 was something like April???
There are also weekly builds released by the Atrix dev. team (see corresponding thread in dev. section). These are kind of alike nightlys (except that they are weeklys ) released by the Atrix dev. team to try out fixes, new things, etc.
The most stable of the three choices you have to choose from is probably the beta build by the Atrix dev team (Ba2tf). Although, I've been using the most recent nightly for the last month or two and have had no problems. The most recent weekly has incorporated the fingerprint scanner into it.
If I have gotten any of the above info. incorrect, please feel free to correct me anyone.
thanks for the very thorough summary.
wow thank you very much! you have cleared all my doubts and even questions that I wanted to post later lol
This helped clear up a bunch of confusion for me - thank you
Sorry for the noob question.
Whats the difference between the following on the cyanogenmod download site
Nightly Cooper 02.09.12
RC1 Cooper
RC3 Cooper
Stable
I thought our device wasn't supported anymore but the nightly cooper is dates 02.09.12 ?
Thank you.
at first i was like: lets post a picard and riker double facepalm
but the i was like: no OT here. give serious answer!
the stable release is -very the suprising- the release labeled with "STABLE"! here afaik (used till 2 weeks ago) everything works fine.
the RCs are just "better betas". most of it works but sometimes it could be a bit buggy
and nightlys are either the first development steps/milestones or -like in this case, where there are nightlies newer than STABLE- they are just created by a bot every sunday. they are automated builds and sometimes contain new things. but as coolya said, there is nothing left to do on CM72 for ace.
tl:dr: dont care about the nightlies. use stable if you want a stable system for everyday use, where everything works without any problems!
No, Stable has some known bugs such as not able to answer call with earphones , the newer Nightly versions have solved that.
But true, seems like Coolya has given up our device and there is no new development for Cooper....
And btw, this is not the right section ,poat these kind of questions to Q & A plz

I saw that my device Xperia S (nozomi) has CM 9.0 and 9.1 under 'stable' category at get dot cm (I'm not allowed links, this is my first post).
Seeing the development forum here, I see CM 9.1 is being worked upon... so does that mean 9.0 is stable & released?
I'm not much aware about CM's release cycle, etc. also couldn't find a question here. If it exists, II'm sorry.
CM9.1 is the latest version for ICS, CM10 is the latest version for JB. The CM9 code base is stable, which means only bugfixes go in there. The CM10 code base is in development, which means new features and bugs can and will be added before release. Also, camera doesn't work on CM10, but it works on CM9.
Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.
Dear all,
i own an Xperia P, now after all this while i know having a novathor chipset in our device is a curse. now We have atleast 10 roms based on latest 4.4 kitkat based on CM but each of it have bugs. this has been the case with all the previous CM versions. My Question is "Is it ever gonna happen that we would get a bug free,at least all the features enabled cm 11 version or its gonna be like all the other versions where the dev skips to the next version as soon as it arrives leaving the older version behind."
if thats the case then it time to sell my device and move on to another one. !!
Regards.

Well, that's about AOSP and while getting it perfect will certainly be a major step for a perfect CM some implementations are different (in fact this was a key factor in choosing to focus on AOSP -- upstream CM changes very often)...
About Bluetooth audio, it's almost a given everyone's waiting for the next version of Bluez (which will then need porting and experimentation) while for FM some progress by trial and error is apparently being made, and thank the ex STE company and their partners for radio support not having been ready a good 2 years ago...
