So I finally made the jump and got S-Off using the Moonshine method (Love that sh** BTW) and I flashed CM10 Stable from the Cyanogen website directly. The first error I got was the keyboard would not come up and I was unable to even do anything. I tried using a different keyboard under setting and wouldn't even let me change it.
Next I flashed the latest Nightly thinking this would maybe be more stable and that one gave me the "no SD card error" so I can't use the camera whatsoever.
My question is what version of CM10 fixes both of these issues, or at least somewhat fixes them? I having been flashing for several years so I am used to things being broken in CM10, but these two things are very crucial. Is there a CM10 ROM or variant that works stable enough for daily use? I know there is a flashable zip file fix for the SD card issue, but I really wanted to use the stable version, but the keyboard issue really kills that idea. Am I doing something wrong when flashing the stable version?
Any help would be appreciated. I have no problem using a custom AOSP CM10 based wrong, but there are so many I don't know what to choose?
Thank all.

Awesome news guys stable version for SGS2 is released .!!
here's the link http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=galaxys2
EDIT- Sorry posted on wrong section plz move it to general section
Awesome, just flashed it. Figures, I switched to MIUI yesterday from CM build #75 because it was incredibly unstable. Just about the time I get it set up, they release a stable version of CM. But hey I'm not complaining. Can't wait to give it a full day tomorrow. It's going to be a hard choice between the two though, MIUI is pretty clean.
reading on cm forum, seems they fixed the bt bug and its fully functionally, thats a very good news, since this prolly mean we are having also miui with bt working soon
FC heaps on the camera lol...but still great to finally have a stable on CM! =D reminds me of the good old HTC days...
Anyone know if TV out is working? This is probably the only thing stopping me from flashing.
read this today and will be waiting for any user feedbacks because this is going to be my very first CM install.
Going to have to say goodbye on my litening rom..
btw the new build also supports european gs2s right?

Bull****. Been using it since nightly #20 or so, and it has been stable since then.
I want to try this out, although I don't really want to get totally rid of my stock ROM just yet. Was there a way to be able to run this from the SD card or some form of dual boot? I think I read about it somewhere.
Any info on aos bug, general battery life and speed?

If you already have root + clockwork recovery do a nandroid backup then install CM7.
If you don't like it you can always restore back
But no SD version that i know of sorry.

Hey, that's indeed a great news !
Unfortunately, when I try to follow the official wiki, I got stuck when Heimdall is supposed to detect my phone in download mode, it says "Failed to detect compatible download-mode device." whereas my phone is in dl mode (the screen says it : "waiting for download"...
It got stuck when I try to flash the kernel given in the wiki. And honestly, I think I already flashed a kernel (because I'm root and there is the yellow /!\ on boot) but can't remember which one...
Help... ?
Not bull****. I started using it on build 75 and it crashed about 10 times a day. I thought it was due to superpower at first, but after completely uninstalling it I still had the issue. Also, the battery life was unusably bad. Maybe you had a better experience. That's great, but I experienced what I did. It was a nightly so I accepted it and tried something else. They released a stable version and now I'm back on it. Its working much better now. For the record I'm a huge fan of cyanogenmod, I have it running on my Matrix 4G as well.

So do we have a "Things that still don't work properly/at all" list? The OP in the main CM7 thread hasn't been updated (yet?).
Have we got full stable BT HSP/HFP/A2DP/AVRCP support?
MHL?
Stable WiFi?
An option to do a loopback mount of the /mnt/emmc mountpoint back to what used to be /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ ? (Yeah, can always do it in a init.rc file)
Have they fixed the horrendous battery drain? (I last tried a couple of 50-something nightlies)

Try reinstalling the USB drivers that come with Heimdall.
i am not 100% sure if there are more device specific optimisations than in an normal nightly. Afaik the version changes of cyanogenmod are just for the general sourcecode, which is used to build roms for all supported devices.
So that means no tv-out, no bluetooth and no mhl for us. But thats just a matter of time. sooner or later bluetooth and FM will work; not so sure about mhl.

As to the question about battery life, it is significantly better. Run super power or juice defender and its especially decent. I keep a spare battery in reach anyways, but I usually don't have to put it in until 10 or 11pm if I keep tthe phone unplugged all day.
I don't use a2dp so I haven't tested it, and I prefer iheartradio so I haven't messed with the radio yet either. I keep popping back and forth between my MIUI and cywnogenmod backups, both are awesome in their own ways. Its hard to decide a permanent rom. But I'm leaning toward CM7.

Hi guys
I'm getting a Touchpad tomorrow and have been looking around the ROM forum but unable to tell which is the best to install.
I've been flashing rom's for sometime onto my HTC phone and pretty comfortable with Clockwork Recovery. Is there a "How To" guide or do I need to go down the CM route?
Looking forward to seeing Android on this tablet and any help/advice to a newcomer would be appreciated.
Cheers!

There are some simple and well put togher guides in the dev section.
You need to install moboot, cwm & rom via acmeinstaller the first time you install android on these devices. Once you have moboot and cwm, you can play with other roms as easy as your HTC phones.
A lot of the guys and gals here have put some real nice guides and tweaks to make these tabs fun to play with.
I personally use the CM9... I have not jumped into the nightlies though. Mostly happy with the performance with the CM9 V2. I do however regularly check the nightly threads to see if it's worth updating.
Most of the other roms (I really have not played with many) share similar issues with CM9 builds (sporadic wifi, camera, etc) so I just stayed with the CM9 and have been happy doing so.
Good luck and have fun.
Hey welcome to the touchpad comunity!
You can start by following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
Once you're done sweting up CWM and Moboot
I suggest trying one of these three roms : (these are the best roms)
-Official CM9 Nightlies http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
-Unofficial AOKP Nightlies http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452625
-ClassicNerd ICS Butta HD http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1472892
I suggest that you use Nightlies because they contain a lot of fixes plus new settings...
DON'T FORGET TO FLASH GAPPS
Once you flashed the rom of your choice
Get GooManager from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager&hl=en
GooManafer is used to update ur roms OTA
If u wish to boost performance and/or play gameloft games Flash this zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1519161

Are you able to watch video with these ROMs? I've seen conflicting reports.

I just flashed my Touchpad after many months of idleness. The first ROM I flashed turned out to be great. No force closes or lag the few days I've been using it. I highly recommend it. Very simple flashing. It's an ICS ROM too!

I am kinda new to all this. I just inherited the thunderbolt from my brother bc my other phone is dead. I am rooted and s-off running santod's Official Thunderbolt ICS deoxed debloated. My question was if I am able to switch to one of the older ROMS like NuSense ROM or UnSense ROM or anyone for that matter that I feel like. I know the process of flashing since I have gotten this far, but I don't want to flash these and then be in some sort of loop with problems.. Thanks in advance:good: Also are radios universal or.. I keep seeing people say just try a different one?
You can flash any ROM you like.
As for radios, look in the post about the ROM, they usually specify what radio is best for that ROM. The newest radio is defiantly needed for the new crop of ICS ROMs based on the official OTA as the older radios cause issues.
Only thing I can add to the first response... Always make a backup first. So when you somehow get into a bad flash/bootloop situation, you have an easy way back to a working device. Also verify your download by checking it's md5 code before you flash. Almost (if not all) files you download will have it listed with the download link on the forum op you're getting it from.

Firstly, is this even possible to do with all features fully functional? Because Cyanogenmod doesn't yet have an official release for the DNA. And if it is, can anyone help guide me in the right direction? For the record, I have flashed Cyanogenmod on some older devices like the A855 and the Droid Eris, but from some limited research I can tell that things have changed a lot since then and I've yet to come across a thread that makes any sense to me.
Look in the original development section to download CM and it has the instructions too.

Huh? There's a Cyanogenmod thread in the "Original Development" forum. You flash it just like any other ROM. Is this what you're asking?

Read the thread, it will tell you what's not working. To save you time the only problem is occasional skipping when streaming music via Bluetooth. Camera, GPS, WiFi, messaging, etc all work.
You should look at the first two pages of the thread and it then the last five pages to see what's going on since it's such a long thread. If you have anymore questions about it then ask in that thread. Just because it's not an official stable release doesn't mean it's unstable, especially when the only problem is Bluetooth skipping, which not everyone is experiencing.
Try it.

2 years? You time traveled back to Nov 16, 2013 bud, this phone will be one year old in 5 days.source. We got official CM support AFTER the last stable CM release was built. But the nightlies are stable enough, literally one issue (discussed in an earlier post, BT audio skips)

s-off is very simple if you are on the latest firmware no worries moonshine s-off is a painless process and it only takes a few minutes
unlocking the bootloader lets you run custom recovery <<< the A855 was already unlocked thats why you didnt need to its also my backup device
s-off lets you flash radios <<<< great to test out for better signal also letting you just flash one package instead boot.img here modules here rom here. if you need help just ask i dont mind willing to help anytime

To varying degrees, WiFi works on all KitKat ROMs, with the exception of CM11 (at least that's been my experience). I've tried all of them, the two that I've found to be the best are Slimkat and AOSPA. Both of those worked best on my DNA.
As far as updating your radio is concerned, couldn't you use an app like Flashify?
In the end, I actually use a 4.2.2 ROM because everything works - and the WiFi/LTE is very stable. I currently use ViperDNA 2.5.2. Having the latest and greatest ROM isn't all that awesome if some of it doesn't work or is unstable.

As for Roms, this whole mess started when I wanted to get the newer "Video Highlight" Feature that allows you to add your own music.
Im going to look into some other 4.2.2 ROMS and see what I can find. Im really digging Kit-Kat though. If anyone has a fave that they like please let me know.

My preference is ViperDNA 2.5.2. It's a Sense5 4.2.2 ROM with the Aroma installer. So you can install or not install as much or as little of the entire package as you like. I happen to like light ROMs, so I remove almost everything and only install stuff I use.
Haven't used any sense based KitKat roms, but I've never had a WiFi issue on cm or aosp based kk roms.
I use the viper 3.0.1 not updating to the newest version yet I'm letting them work some more bugs out.
