7.1.0 stable = nightly #143 IIRC, so it's just older version of CM7..just go with latest nightly. You can read changes from changelog.

thank you
you use it . have you any problems with this nightly version ?

No I haven't noticed any problems so far..but I have used this only for 1 day so it's too early to say anything certain..

ok
i will test it also
thank you

Nightly is the latest and greatest cutting edge from CM, but is also more prone to more bugs. Stable is better for new CM users, or for those that "heavily rely" on their CM phones as their main or only phones...

You could ask about them on the official CM7 thread. I would suggest flashing the latest Nightly, however.

thank you upichie
i ask but no answer
i will try th nightly version

There are certain problems that are known and have yet to be fixed with CM7. Developers are continuously updating it though—and that is what the Nightlies are (a new build released every night). If your problems are known issues, it may be awhile before you see a fix. But there may be simple solutions to fix whatever problems you're having.

thank you
i wait for new stable version because i can t use many application with cm7 . it fast and very nice

The only applications you should have trouble getting to work are the Samsung ones. The reason they don't work is because they are dependent on Samsung's framework, which obviously isn't found in CM7.
Every other application, if supported by your phone, should work just fine.

Not always, I've had a few nightly builds go wrong but isn't hard to make a nandroid backup. If in doubt use a stable build, I personally like the latest work from the CM7 team

That is nothing new with CM and AOSP builds. They have know app compatibility issues. Some apps just will not work like Screenshot it. It will work on every custom rom except for CM and any rom built off of it/

sorry for ignorance

There are 2 stable versions
Cm7

Cm10 (jellybean) is currently being developed

Why everyone uses the buggy CM7 rom base ?

Hello all,
I have tried EVERY SINGLE ROM on my mini galaxy for the past 4 months.
They only stable rom I found without unwanted FC is the Minimod X final.
It is so hard to find a stable non-stock rom these day while everyone ports the CM7/9 rom and changes it in some way.
Have you thought about that the CM7/9 rom is not STABLE enough to build on it ?
I wish there will be other updated stable roms that does NOT based on the buggy CM7/9 roms

CM9 is in beta stage, not only for our device, but as an OS in general so no question about that. as for CM7, hmmm, it may be buggy for you but not for all. kittenlinux build's and mebitek's builds are pretty stable for me. Also, that is the essence of development, resolve all unwanted bugs.
Thanks for your reply Kitrax. When I'm talking about instability, I mean a FC few times a week in a moderate use of the phone.When you say pretty stable, Can you use the build for a week without a FC ? The only one that stood up to this to me is the Minimod X final......

Yeah, I can use these ROMs without FC for a week. Well, that would depend on the apps that are force closing on your phone.
have you tried MORe rom? it's stable for me...
and about cm7, I think that's because it isn't the final release...
Thanks again kitrax and droid,
I just installed the latest kittenlinux rom, Since kitrax said that it worked quite stable for him (I saw that meibtek's rom has still some gps problem which was fixed in kittenlinux's rom).
I hope that this rom with the latest full Gapps will work as stable as i expect a rom to work.

Of course! It's still on the beta stage!
I think the baseband version you are using do some different effect.
Some baseband isn't good to some custom ROM.
i've been using the CM 7.2 RC1 since yesterday and it is stable up to now.
I've installed all my programs (premotedroid, Circle battery wodget, Extreme alarm clock, 3g watchdog), And up to now it didnt gave me any FC.
Hope it'll keep working stable. Will let you know whats up.
Thank you folks for your help and insights
i like squad's ROM but the CMobile is buggy! Long time no see him to fix this! (on madteam)
talking about stable cm
didn't you tried official cm for tass
I've tried the official CM 7.2 that came out few weeks ago, But didn't found it stable.
Strange, I was using a lot of roms too, and I experienced bugs and fc's only on few of them... maybe You just expecting too much from this little device, especially when you get a lot of fc's even on stock rom...

CM9 stable and nightly

Hi All
Now Cyanogen Team said they will stop working on CM9 and they release Stable version but when I went to check the Nightly ROM I found they still working on it.
Stable mean no bugs and Nightly under upgrading to become stable.
Why they release stable ROM.
Who will explain this?

As far as i understand... When the Nightlies become better and better the developers start a feature freeze. This means no new functions or crazy experiments - just bughunting! This is made in the RC (Release Candidate) builds. If everyone is satisfied with the RC builds, it is getting stable status.
The work on new nightlies is parallel to this process, i think!

Explain what? Explain the new nightlies?
No developer would throw ICS out of the window, just because JB hit the market. Look, there are still cm7-nightlies on cyanogen build machines!
Rush
You should keep in mind that some newer version might not work well even when the development has finished due to hardware limitations.So people might want to have the maximum working version on their devices. Hipothetically if Jelly bean won't work well on our devices, then atleast we'll have a bug free ICS rom.

Different versions CyanogenMod

hey guys, do not know much about the CyanogenMod roms, I wonder what the difference between the versions and nightly snapshot?
Sorry for my bad English.

The Snapshot is a stable point where almost everything worked 100%. A couple of bugs that most people will miss and a few that is annoying but doesn't make it unstable.
The nightlies are not so well tested and receive commits from the main CM branch. They include the latest bugfixes and features but it might not be as stable.

First correct me if I'm wrong, other ppl like xonar_ definitly know more about it.
CM 7 is GB
CM 9 is ICS
CM 10 is JB
nighlys are done everyday and not much tested, I heard there are done automaticaly by a build robot
M snapshots are more tested and seem to come out every month
RC is tested a lot and the CM ppl think it is stable, if they find errors in it there will be another RC that corrects the errors, if not it will be declared stable

Everything is correct except nightly. Nightlys are only built when there are commits. Everyday means that the dev of the phone for CM has done a commit. That's why this week its everyday.

Not just the develeoper of the phone. We also receive commits from the main CM10 branch. If you look at the device specific and kernel commits then you'll see that new nightlys are sometimes being released without there being any changes too them. CM10 still has bugs on the main branch and those bugs can be fixed by any person at CM not just our awesome phone developer rmcc.
Sent from my LG-P970
In this case, they are automatically released, this is why a later version "nightly" can not contain an adjustment that had been made in the last version (as in the case of video recording in our CM10 that worked in past releases and the latest does not work), leaving only when another snapshot version is that everything was done correctly should not it contain?
Snapshot or Release Candidates
Thanks for you wonderful explanation guys, but this might be a noobish question, if I were to choose or you are, would you pick snapshot or RC's?
Thanks! :good:

Depends on how close to the RC the snapshot is....
A snapshot from the day after a RC should be almost identical to the RC, plus (hopefully) fixes.
A snapshot far after a release could be introducing a bunch of new features (and bugs to go with them).
I'd be more interested in reading snapshot changelogs, relative to the last release or release candidate.

Try rebooting your phone once.. Because CM 7 is now Stable.. Everything works like a charm..
If the problem is still there, then I guess you'll have to reflash the rom..
Is it okay if i flash the nightly? Or should i still stay on the stable version?

You can use whatever you want
Nightly versions are "stable" enough for daily use
Reflash the lastest Nightly and if you'll face troubles use the stable version

Haha. Ok. In CM's official website, they say nightlies are very unstable and unsafe for daily use.

Nightlies include updated sources & experimental features but CM7 is stable enough so that doesn't make much difference. If you want a more latest build of cm7, try the one by thilibaultblizz.

In the last 3 nightlys, the wi-fi is very slow, I think that it not only happened to me, try to install the stable, although this has a bug that calls with headphones, listening to too low, the nightly of 2012/12/09 is the best for me.
Cheers, sorry for my bad english.
