How fast will CyanogenMod shoot out some stable/release candidate ROMS for Non-Nexus phones?
If I am correct, lately CyanogenMod has been releasing new stable versions for phones at one time, rather than one at a time. This is quite a puzzler to me, because CyanogenMod hasn't even released a stable release for any phone running android 4.3 AKA:CyanogenMod 10.2. It seems to me that they should have been on this ball months ago. They have just become a legit company, named CyanogenMod Inc., yet still have not updated any ROM to the newest software (Android 4.3). Hopefully, they will be on the ball one KitKat comes out on October 15th, along with the new nexus.
Any thoughts are appreciated.

I'm running 4.3. So it's probably just your phone. If it use the Samsung CPU, that might be the problem.

Are you sure? Unless your CM10.1.3 is android 4.3, there are no stable versions of 4.3 released for any device right now. As far as CM goes.
As far as I knew CyanogenMod was bringing android 4.3 to its version 10.2.

Im running cm 10.2 20131011 nightly, on sprint Samsung galaxy s3, 4.3.1 and its flawless
Will it be developed for HTC ONE m7
I personally don't think they're heavily concerned with 10.2 I think KitKat is going to get the focus.

Sorry but thats not how the CM Team rolls. They're main priority will still be 10.2 to get whatever bugs or concerns addressed till they move to another project. They're not just going to waste hours of developing and let it go down the drain. Until they produce a product that is completely flawless and bugfree, then...they'll move to a new project.
Cm10.2 nightly is good for daily use

I'm running cm10.2 nightly 1/11/13 on my Samsung galaxy s3 and it is stable and good for daily usage.
Well I'm not an expert user... Every night they make some updates so I think they'll be trying to make 10.2 perfectly stable before releasing a 4.4 rc

It kind of is, most of the team will move on to modifying 4.4 and a few will stay behind to make the previous release stable. This will also mean that now will be somewhat of a feature stop for 10.2

I like Kitkat...and wanna use it soon
yeah.. i hope they adopt it real soon...

I own several tabs that I loan to my employees. I need something fast and stable before I leave stock ICS. Is there a timetable or a completely stable aosp JB rom?
Thanks.
CM10.1 for Galaxy Tab 10.1, as it stands now, cannot ever go stable (unless 4.2 is released for Tegra2 which most likely won't occur since it has been EOL'd).
This is because there is quite a mess with Google Apps (which most users install and use from the usual places) on this platform where things have to be hacked/modded/worked around for things to work. This is because support for non NEON architecture (like Tegra2) has been dropped.
However, CM10 for Galaxy Tab 10.1 can go stable and will do so once the remaining bugs are squashed. This is being worked on. A timetable cannot be given at this current time.
Thanks... What are the bugs? Is it on your website?

yea you can view what is left from a major issue point of view, as of 0122 unofficial.
Thanks.
Any idea then a stable version of CM10.1 will come out? I'm really wanting to have that stock android experience but i want it to be stable and can be used as an everyday driver
The only issue I had with it is otg doesn't work.
This is cm we're talking about. No eta.

I think we'll see the Google Edition of the HTC One by mid-July, and the ROM could leak before it's even released which should serve as a catalyst in getting AOSP & AOKP ROM's running at full steam.
If I had to guess you'll see full featured AOSP builds by the end of July, probably not Cyanogenmod, but AOSP none the less.
Fingers crossed HTC releases some device-specific code that optimizes the camera quality and if we're REALLY lucky, some kind of in-home audio driver solution that closely mimics Beats.

I personally think the current nightly is good enough to be stable.
It will come out in due time, but don't expect it by the end of the week, or even month. The current version is reasonably stable, but expect battery life to take a hit should you use it.
It will come with this http://m.cnet.com/news/htc-one-google-edition-its-real-and-coming-in-summer/57586184

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is already out on the Galaxy Nexus, but other phone are still waiting for manufacturers to do the work and update their handsets to the newest version of Android. What’s worse is that some handset will never officially get updated to Jelly Bean.
If you want to change that, you should be on XDA Developers where all the development happens and now the Samsung Galaxy Ace and Gio, some of the most affordable low-end Androids, got the CyanogenMod 10 ports.
CyanogenMod 10 is the Jelly Bean based version of the custom ROM. If you want to flash it, just check out the links below where you’ll find all the detailed information you need.
Interestingly, the Ace and Gio were never included in Samsung’s plans for the update to even ICS as they run on a pretty dated ARMv6 processors. Now, a very important disclaimer is that those ports are not yet final - they are alpha versions that are still not ready for prime time. You can get on and help the developer and also get a taste of what’s to come with them though.
What's the point of this? Posting an ad for XDA forums on XDA forums kinda defeats the purpose, no?

Thanks for understanding it

I'm really surprised after looking into this phone that it's only running 4.2.2 considering it's being release just a couple weeks before the note 3.. Does have news on whether it will be getting 4.3.. or kitkat?
Kitkat may be far away since nexus five is not yet unveiled, I guess

It will at least get 4.3 I would guess since it doesn't make much sense to have the new OpenGL 3.0 capable 330 GPU and only have an OS that supports OpenGL 2.0 stay on the phone. How quickly we will get this is anyone's guess however. I saw that google is already on 4.3_r3 which means they are still merging tweaks and fixes to the 4.3 release. LG may be integrating these and waiting for a stable code base to release with.

4.3 on my Gnex screams, I can only imagine on the monster that is the G2!
Im hoping we get KitKat but will settle for 4.3 for now.
LG is also doing all of the multitasking stuff that Samsung has been doing for the note 2 for the first time I believe. They probably started development with 4.2 or 4.2.1 and before release integrated 4.2.2. Integrating 4.3 before release would have pushed the release window too far behind the note 3 for them to stay competitive. They likely decided to release with 4.2.2 while already updating to 4.3 in another code tree, or plan to wait till 4.4 to give us a new OS version based update. All speculation, but it makes sense to me at least .
I'd hate to say it but LG + AT&T ugh I wouldn't hold my breath lol first of the year maybe at the earliest for 4.3
I'm hoping to go direct to 4.4 personally. Hopefully LG has had lots of access with the n5 to get a head start on it.

You're making me excited! My Galaxy Nexus is also super fast on 4.3. I can only imagine how blazing fast the G2 will be with CyanogenMod 10.2. Oh, it makes me quiver with excitement.
I have the T-Mobile variant. They have been on a big "be the best carrier" push, so I wouldn't doubt getting a new firmware update before the other carrier phones
Screw Android 4.3 At this point I want LG to release an update to Android 4.4.2 KitKat next year because we know Android is going to release some minor patches after Android 4.4 is released.
hmm yep you're right
why 4.2.2 at the first position instead 4.3
but since the major changelogs from 4.2.2 to 4.3 are about the bluetooth thingy and open GL thingy
for me it doesn't matter
since this beast can do all the things that a phone should do
who knows maybe after this, the first jump is kitkat
imho

4.3 re-wrote a lot of behind the scenes stuff. Memory management and garbage collection seem MUCH better. My Gnex has never been so fast as it is on 4.3.
BUT part of the bluetooth rewrite has caused my phone to reboot on re-connection to my car head unit. A few others have experienced the same issue, across different ROMs as well so it very well may be an issue with the Android source code. Hopefully Le Goog fixes it because the rest of 4.3 is awesome. And FWIW 4.3 is the first version that actually streams the bluethooth metadata correctly so I can see artist/album/track info on my head unit now.

Heh no biggie, they arent exactly easy to read anyway!
I dont want 4.3 on this phone becuz it gives lg an excuse not to give 4.4. At this point i only want 4.4 becuz i expect more features to be added which includes all the 4.3 features.

Hi guys,
I have an old S3 i9300 I'm thinking of giving to my mother. She doesn't live locally and is pretty good with phones but certainly not close to being able flash nightlies/kernels/etc. She uses Chrome, WhatsApp and needs a fairly stable camera. She doesn't game or need high performance, stability is the most important thing. She's coming from a ropy old Huawei Y300 on 4.1.1 so even the AOSP camera on an S3 will present a significant upgrade over that!
I want to use an AOSP based ROM as when the phone was my daily driver it was far superior to Touchwiz. On balance, do you think it's better to flash a KitKat (CM11) or Lollipop (CM12.1) based ROM? I want to be able to flash a ROM and then it be stable enough for her to use for a while without any ROM updates. When the phone was my daily driver I was on SlimKat 9.0 Stable and was happy enough. My instinct is to go for SlimLP or JustArchi's unofficial CM12.1 final version as they have very few changes from AOSP.
What do people think? Or should I just sell the S3 and buy a Moto G? Haha
Stock rom. She has no need for root or custom roms.
I wish I stole my HTC M9.
Don't sell Try Official LiquidSmooth v3.2 KK rom with Boeffla kernel smooth & stable.

Thanks, but even when deodexed and slimmed down, for me Touchwiz is awful and stuck on 4.3 (not interested in the ported 4.4.4 TW ROMs).

If it's KitKat, I'd rather go SlimKat, but Boeffla is a good shout, I was on it when the phone was mine and it was very smooth and stable.
Can anybody verify any LP AOSP ROMs as stable and useful for a daily driver?
If you want a later 100% reliable kitkat or higher device then buy a new phone. The s3 i9300 was never designed to run kit kat and will crash due to out of memory issues all the time.
Sorry to burst your bubble but i ended up with this m9 for the very same reason and my mum has my old rooted s3. She hates it yet i cant be arsed backing it all up to set it back to stock so when her contract is up soon I'll get her a new device.

Wow, I can't believe how wrong you are. I ran SlimKat comfortably for a year on an S3 and by the final version 9 it was a MILLION TIMES better than anything Samsung came up with for the S3. Out of RAM? My Nook HD+ ran KitKat and currently runs Lollipop just fine and is never "out of memory". And the 1gb Moto Gs seemed to have handled both KitKat and Lollipop just fine. In fact, the Y300 is EASILY capable of running KitKat on just 512mb RAM. I'm closing this now, mainly because @shivadow clearly has no idea about Android at all and has p**sed all over my thread.
