I would like to know which version of CyanogenMod you prefer for daily use. Although nightlies are not meant for daily use, I think some users do.
Do you like to see updates every day and use the latest state of the ROM or do you prefer to have a rock solid ROM and wait for the next step until there's a RC or stable? And why?
Actually I am switching between stable and nightlies within days, because I cannot decide which one to use. I love nightlies, because I am curious for the latest features/bugfixes/else. But when a bug occurs, I always think: "Well, the stable version has only minor differences (for me) but is stable. Let me switch back." And after a few days I am curious what has changed. ^^
How about you? Stable or nightly?
There are only 2 stable versions since ics..
Cm9 stable
Cm10.1 stable
Cm9 has extreme battery life but its old now..cm10.1 is good n new but battery life is poor.. (yes it is)
I am currently using last cm10 nightly ... i guess 16/12/12
Works like a charm wid decent battery life.
and 10.2 nightly builds are good enough for daily use (only down side is poor battery life for me)
Yes. Ice Cream Sandwich esp. 4.0.4 has the best battery life out of the box. Even with Samsung's stock firmware. The CyanogenMod of Jelly Bean is still much better than Samsung stock JB when it comes to energy consumption.
But this was not my question. ^^ It was more about whether 10.1 stable or 10.2 nightly at the moment.

I would prefer the stable version
Nightlies arent safe (few nightlies back.. i restored a nandroid backup which wiped my entire internal storage) i reported the issue and it was confirmed by others too.
So i would suggest staying wid 10.1 stable .. 4.3 has mostly under the hood changes.. and m not a maniac to be on latest Android version irrespective of its stability
I'm with 10.3 nightly from 24/9 good for daily use, battary is better for me too:good:

cm 10.1.3 already released so im using it now ..
Only stable... for me is better...
I only use nightlys and had never any heavy problems.
I trust the CM team.
Used to use Nightlies to have the newest version of Android and use the latest CyanogenMod features, but now that there is a Stable release I'm using that as the stability is well worth being just one version behind stock Android

i switch to latest stable/nightly every couple of months to check things out, always coming back to CM9 it's just perfect
I'm using CM 10.1.3 and it's very fast and stable!
Developers Developers.. please be OmniRom maintainer and port it to our GS2..../request

I currently use the stable 10.1 version. Battery life is... Okay... But I think I will check out CM9 stable to see if i can do better. In terms of performance I really love CM10.1. I have not used a nightly of 10.2 but I think i will not need to until a RC comes out.

I used to use only stable images. But now i updated form i9000 to i9100 and using multiboot with dormanx kernel i test a lot of nighlys
tried 10.1 stable and the only thing stable about it was how bad it run. Camera force-closing, random reboots, etc. Same experience I had back in the day with CM9. Switched to ASOP and I'm never ever giving CM another chance again.
Always checking out the the latest release, doesn't matter if it's stable or nightly.:good:
Normally I'd have flashed an M Snapshot but there was nothing uploaded for the S2. In the CyanogenMod news I've read that they would push M snapshots onto the servers last night, but there is nothing appearing for the S2. Well, seems like I have to wait until a somewhat stable-like release for us is uploaded, I don't really wanna use the nightlies because I need my phone for everyday use and bugs are bad

Which GB Rom out there currently has most stable GPS and battery life? I know of the few GB roms out there like Simply, i9000 ports, and Juwe 6.0, but which one nails the best on your own experience?

CM7.1
I've been running nightly 157 since it was built. Runs flawlessly.
I too would like everyone's opinions on this.
I've been using CM 7.1 since it's "stable" release, it runs great and I'm a long-time CM user. But it's not without it's faults; 911 dialing is broken, when toggling the GPS the phone won't go to sleep and the battery drains.
Plus, CM has removed the Vibrant from it's list of supported devices. Nobody on the CM development team currently owns a Vibrant and there doesn't seem to be much hope that it will change.
MiUi. Yes 911 dialing doesn't work on this rom either, but otherwise it works great. Good battery life as well.
Phiremod cm7 excellent everything especially battery life I charge it every two days

in my opinion miui with the platypus kernel is the most stable gb rom. But thats comparing roms that aren't final.
What about Juwe 6.0? Anyone been using that?

Hi,
I got p7510 and have been using TASK 14 ROM because it simply has been best choice for me. I tried ICS and JB roms about 6 months ago(guess?) and didn't like them due FC and lagginess. I'm looking for a stable and fast rom. What do you suggest and what rom are you using right now?
CM10.1 - Nightly. No complaints whatsoever.
Pretty much anything up to date is stable. I've never had any unexpected force closes or issues.
CM10.1 nightly stable here as well, with Tablet UI added.
Perfect for me.
I found the CM10.1 nightlies (4.2.x) a bit laggy. I switched to the unofficial CM10 (Android 4.1.x) builds from Pershoot: Very very smooth rom for the P7510.

I've just finished trying out CM and another JB release and I'm going back to Task 14. I was happy at first and overall they were 95% clean and nice. That 5% got me though. Battery life while OCing is nasty. Went to load the calendar while on the phone doing business (usually I use my phone or notebook) and crash - gapps has issues in JB. Some other minor stuff (using an old hacked Hulu app, etc) but I was happier before. YMMV
So I've installed paranoid android and I'm pretty happy with it (especially being able to use the camera again!) but I'm wondering if CM10 might not be faster on my YP-G70 or more stable.
Has anybody out there tried both and found one to be faster or more stable than another?

Hello,
They both consist of the same bugs, since Paranoid is based on the CM10 Rom. Any biased feed back about peoples personal experiences might not be of best interest.
Hope this answers your question.

They are built from the same device tree and are nearly identical except for PA enhancements.
Use both and see which one is better?
Paranoid is a good choice
hey ! , I'm looking for a stable custom firmware , now i'm using the CM 9.1 but i would like to update for a better one.according to the official page thats the last one ,Which one would you recommend me ?
Shostock is one of the most stable firmware available out there currently.. u can also try miui.. both these roms are based on Samsung firmwares.. if u want a Aosp based firmware try supernexus.. the latest one is quite stable and there are a few bugs.. I guess it's still under development.. also try Aj kernel with Samsung based roms.. it's snappier..
Miui has been my favorite for the past few days..

How stable is MIUI for the SII?
I had installed on my girlfriends SII back in may, but the battery time was horrible. Is this any better now?

MIUI is stable.. its has been a daily driver for me for quite sometime now..battery is bad.. but I have a 3500mah battery.. and from my experience so its ok for me..
Ah, the batterything is the biggest issue. I really likes the simplicity of MIUI (thats a good thing for my gf), but last time the phone had like 5 hours of battery life –*and that just don't cut it.
I was hoping they had fixed the issue by now, since it is such a huge deal breaker for many.
Currently i'm on CM11 with the kernel it comes with. However i'm facing camera issues where it says that camera isn't detected sometimes and a couple of FCs here and there.
So my question was which ones more stable in terms of scrolling/daily use/battery life + the kernel until CM 11 comes up with a stable release. I'm concerned about the battery life as well because it's not that great and i get lag when switching apps etc. I know that best rom questions are forbidden that's why i've specified these versions and i'm only asking for opinions as i really don't want to flash CM10 right now and find out that it's worse.
so no one?
10.2 is the most recent stable version, 11 is nightly and buggy as s**t
