[Q] Switching Cm10 rom - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Having just rooted my matrix and installed jokersax's cm10 ROM I'm addicted and I'm wondering what else is possible.
This cm10 build works brilliantly excect the camera doesn't work and the battery life is terrible.
1. Can I install any cm10 ROM or does it have to be customized for the matrix?
2. Would you recommend I try the new cm10 m series builds (monthly builds as I understand)
3. Would I lose my data/apps/launcher customizations? Of course I'll backup first.
4. Is switching to a newer cm10 ROM going to fix problems with the camera/chrome/battery life.
I know these are probably answered elsewhere but I can't seem to find the answers.
Thanks for reading.

Why do you think many people here do ports? Do you think that would be necessary if you could just go and install whatever you want?
Think about it.

Try doing a clean install.
What do you mean in "clean install"?
Is it better to install "Nightly" then "RC"?
Please, give me a download link for CM 7.2 fully working version without any bugs.

It means to wipe everything before flashing. Try the one in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24340035&postcount=250. Nightlies are more updated than RCs.

but the nightlies are more buggy than the rc's, the rc's are more buggy than the stable. The stable versions are just what the name says, IMO The stable versions are the best if you dont want to deal with bugs. If you are like me and dont mind them then go with nightlies or the RC's. Personally I am using the RC from the cyanogenmod site.

The one I linked to has no noticeable bugs. Also, if something is a nightly, it doesn't mean that it needs to have bugs. Usually just the earlier nightlies have bugs.

any cm9 or cm10 rom in the works?

hi,
my first post in the go/sola/p/u forum. i really like the idea of a clean version of android without bloatware and the proprietary ui of the device manufacturers. so i was wondering if there is any rom based on cm10 or cm9 currently in the works for our devices?

This is because of Hashcode's hard work and extraordinary amount of input into the Unofficial CM10.1, I am sure he will make a new post himself. I dont think you meant to steal his glory tho.

Yes, it is, you must be on ICS kernel, that's the reason it has some bugs still, as BT one... IMHO

Or are there a way to instal into slot_2?
Are there any problem installing in slot_1?

You're wrong, it's a unofficial release. The one in this topic is a Official Release from cryanogen team.
Installed using BMM in slot 2, with the "why_we_have_to_skip_devfs_setup_myth.zip" patch.
Works great! Camcorder working but still no flash with de camera.

Why the CM, and the AOKP are made in ICS Kernel? Why the developers don't use the JB Kernel of the leaked Verizon?? Something prevents it?
Maybe because it's not an official version (it's a leaked).

There's an image for download in the Nightly's session. You may download it and flash. That's all. I did it here through Safestrap 3.11 on Slot 1 and it wokred very well.
This ROM is awesome, but there still some artifacts and some other bugs known from AOKP.
But, for the whole thing, the system is sort of stable.
The official cm and aokp Roms are the same as Hashcode and Dhackers unofficial roms. The only difference is that we get updates directly from the aokp and cm teams now instead of Hashcode and Dhacker having to merge the changes from aokp and cm.
The official builds will stay on the ics kernel until the official jellybean build is released from Motorola. And probably will have to wait until Motorola releases the kernel source code.

dude dont be stupid. its the same developer and the thread needs only to change the title to "official" from "unofficial" use common sense
I'm testing
I'm testing this rom since yesterday and it's very stable...
My razr has the ICS kernel, and I used Boot Manager on slot3 to test... Needed to patch devfs to boot..
The ROM is fast... but some old problems... like camera flash... the bluetooth I cant test since I dont have any BT devices...
Google now working... camera recording working... notification bar is the new 4.2.2 one
when flash camera is working it will be my default ROM...
awesome..

First, you need to be more polite with people you don't know. And second, despite the official build is only "cm" merged with hashcode's work it's still a new build since only now it will receive support from cyanogen team (not only about the razr port, which probably will continue to be hashcode's work, but about functionality, apps and more). But you're right, changing hashcode's thread title resolves, till he do that,it's the only thread that talk about the official release.

Ok, but the ROM's make with the JB Kernel are very good and eliminate bugs such as camera flash and bluetooth.

[ROM][i9100][JB4.3] Linaro compiled {kernel only} CM10.2 nightlies

This was just a personal hobby project, but it seems many people are using these builds, so I'm starting this thread to keep the main CM thread clean.
The nightly is built at 6:30AM IndianStandardTime (GMT+5:30), and contains all changes synced till then. The most prominent difference between these builds and the official ones is that there builds are compiled using the Linaro toolchain. To me, this results in a smoother UI, and better battery life than the official builds. From time to time, these builds may also contain some hotfixes for small problems on official builds, and they may also contain some cherrypicks.
You can just install these builds over official builds without a data wipe. You can even go back to the official builds without a data wipe.
Download link: https://copy.com/vJqpoVqwoUXJ
Please check MD5 before flashing.
What are the drawbacks of building with Linaro? I assume there must be some, if the official build is not using this, right?

The drawbacks are that theoretically, there might be some unexpected side effects if building from a non-standard compiler. I personally haven't seen any since I've been using it. Also, I think the CM team thinks Linaro is just placebo, and hence they don't use it.

There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers
I'm sorry I didn't explain it better in the OP. By hotfix, I mean like the icon pixellation issue that was present in the past few official nightly builds wasn't there on mine. So from time to time, if I find some problem in the official nightlies, and I can fix them, the fixes will be included in my builds

[Q] Which CM10.1 for Xperia Neo V? Or better CM10.2?

Hello to everyone! I have a question about my Xperia Neo V (Haida). I want to change my ROM (currently AntiBillOS CM10.1) to a more stable and with fewer bugs. I'm tempted to Legacy Xperia by Mike, but I opened this thread to ask an opinion on all ROM based on Android 4.2.2, with strengths and weaknesses. In particular, I am looking for a ROM that is stable, faster and with less bugs as possible, with root permissions and superuser, of course. I also wanted to consider Legacy Xperia CM10.2 by Mike, but I have read that it is still at an embryonic stage. I await your answers.
Sorry for my English. :angel:
Definitely CM10.1 because of lesser bugs. CM10.2 is being fixed but it's laggy at this moment & some of the hardware doesn't work. Hopefully most of bugs will be fixed soon. So I'd suggest you to flash latest CM10.1 by Mike.
Cheers!!
Is it really necessary to create new thread for this..

Thanks again for your reply. I chose the CM10.1 by Mike as you suggested. Just one question: if I were to upgrade to a future build, can I use the built-CM update?
No you can not update unofficial ROMs through CM Updater in Settings. You have to manually check on respective development thread if an update is available you have to download it & flash it manually.
