I understand that this is probably the most commonly brought up question and all the veterans must cringe at coming across it yet again, but I've yet to find a real fix for this. On any current JB Rom, be it the unofficial AOKP build, official AOKP, unofficial CM10.1, or the newly released CM10.1 nightly build, I cannot send or receive MMS messages, even when trying to use a 3rd party app such as Chomp SMS. The only rom I've been able to do this on is Eclipse, and even that requires a wipe of cache every time I want to download a new one. I'd really like to use a JB rom, and it seems that others aren't having this issue, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Ok, i've been absent from the forums for some time and have been trying to play catch up... If someone who has been keeping up would just help me get a few things straight it would be awesome.
please just put the number and if its correct or the answer or w.e.
What I think I know:
1. CyanogenMod- Established dev who releases nightly updates (CM6?) to his tweaked build of rooted mostly ASOP 2.2, which recently (thanks to a new kernal?) began working on our CDMA Hero’s.
2. Most 2.2 ROMs are based off of one of the CM6 nightlies, then customized with themes and tweaks
3. “CyanogenMod-6 for Hero CDMA - V6.0.0 (09/18/2010)” is one of these, and has been tweaked minimally, and is considered a stable build as far as CM6 goes
4. “FroYo 2.2 – CM6- Vanilla” is basically same as above, just complied from a differently “nightly”, while “Extremely Blue” and “BlackMod” are the same, just themed
5. The main (only?) NON–CM6 based options for 2.2 are…
a. asopMod v.03m = which is a very ASOP build, includes OC
b. NFX-Hero 2.2.1.update1 = slimed down ASOP, includes OC and JIT option
Questions:
6. If I want the CM6 nightly updates, is there an updater app in any of these ROMS’s, like in Fresh Hero 2.4 (what I’m used to), or do I have to pull an update.zip from somewhere (or something)?
7. Do some phones work with JIT enabled, and others don’t? and if so is there a way to tell without just trying
8. If I'm set on 2.2 should I check out any other ROMs than those I mentioned
9. Is there a standout (stable) kernal right now?
Just want to say:
NFX-Hero 2.2.1 is just the version number. It is still based on HTC Sense 2.1.
There is currently no Sense 2.2 port for the Hero.
As for the stable kernel, I've heard good things about this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756774
specifically [email protected] 09/14/2010, people refer to it as "#14 kernel"

Cyan is the almighty grand pubba of AOSP and was one of there first to release roms in the mainer we see them now. He does not do everything and all roms as he has allot of help from other devs, for us its Darch who maintains the Heroc version of cyanogen (sorry if I forgot some of you other devs)
2. Most 2.2 ROMs are based off of one of the CM6 nightlies, then customized with themes and tweaks
All of the roms you see for the heros here that are AOSP based com from darch's and then cyans repo period, nightlies are built roms while we theme built roms roms deving is done from source and can be taken from different time and snap shots so nightly means nothing then.
3. “CyanogenMod-6 for Hero CDMA - V6.0.0 (09/18/2010)” is one of these, and has been tweaked minimally, and is considered a stable build as far as CM6 goes
The stable build of cm6.0 is from the combined deving of cyan, darch and alot of other people to bring the best of wheat works and leave out what doesn't. Nightlies usually are adding what seems to work but is not always guarenteed
4. “FroYo 2.2 – CM6- Vanilla” is basically same as above, just complied from a differently “nightly”, while “Extremely Blue” and “BlackMod” are the same, just themed
Black mod is a theme, extreme blue is a themed rom compiled from cyan/drach's source vinilla is a terms used to describe a stock rom which is what cm6.00 stable and anyhting else that comes from the repo.
5. The main (only?) NON–CM6 based options for 2.2 are…
a. asopMod v.03m = which is a very ASOP build, includes OC
b. NFX-Hero 2.2.1.update1 = slimed down ASOP, includes OC and JIT option
I'll go ape **** on this but asopMod v.03m is from cyan's source ino at first he tried to make it seem like he compiled from AOSP source but the fact is he uses cyans like almost everone else and if you check his thread now he given the props the the cyan team as he should have at first.... NFX-her is a sense based rom from android 2.1
Questions:
6. If I want the CM6 nightly updates, is there an updater app in any of these ROMS’s, like in Fresh Hero 2.4 (what I’m used to), or do I have to pull an update.zip from somewhere (or something)?
Not yet but that would be nice nightlies are not considered stable and there for i dont think theyll be added to an updater like cm updater or fresh updater but when we start seeing more stable builds you'll see the updater used, cm updater is on cm6 right now just nothing to update
7. Do some phones work with JIT enabled, and others don’t? and if so is there a way to tell without just trying
All phones should work with JIT (Just in Time) dalvik compiler, whether they run betters is a different story but I have never had issues
8. If I'm set on 2.2 should I check out any other ROMs than those I mentioned
For sense I like fresh as he seems to be the best sense dev (imo) around here for AOSP you go with the grand master Cyan and his cm6 (for the hero) there are some other devs out there that make roms for other phones but most of them still use Cyan's repo.
9. Is there a standout (stable) kernal right now?
Yes Decadence

if anyones see's an error in what i posted please correct me.
Any froyo rom is going to be based off of CM6. The nightlies are built every night from any changes made that day. They are considered beta, however most will find no issues at all. If you flash CM6 the Jit setting is a quick change and will not screw up the phone. You just go into setting>cyanogenmod setttings>performance settings and check or uncheck jit and reboot. There is a ROM Manager app in CM6, but you have to install clockwork recovery so I am not sure what will show up in the ROMs option or what else it does because I do not want to install clockworks. As mentioned a lot are using #14.

not a lot shows up in the downloads section for rom manager on the hero. there's 4 selections, and none of them include cm6. it's mostly useless in my experience.
hopefully they update the downloads list soon.

Actually i was referring to cm updater which is similar to the fresh updater... when we see more stables from cm6 and up it'll start showing some it that. I personally don't care for rom manager.

rom manager could use some work to make it a bit more useful. i like it for queuing up roms to flash and making things a bit more automated, however i'm not sure it clears the dalvik cache when it does its thing so i generally have to do it myself anyways.
i'll have to check out fresh updater. i have cm updater, installed from the market, does it actually come with cm6 now? i never saw it when i flashed the 9/18 and already had it installed when i clean flashed the latest nightlies.

Well fresh updater is pretty much the same as cm updater but its only for fresh roms. cm updater might not be part of cm6 I can't, it probably isnt. I actually would like it to be as with cm5 and below it also had themes in it. hopefully itll come back when theres more cm6 stables.
Thanks all. Didn't want to jump into 2.2 without knowing what I was getting into. I decided to start with CM6.0.0, and so far its been great. As mush as I love all things Freshh, I'm mad I waited this long. I DO miss the Senses dialer (minus the ungodly lag) and I havent made up my mind on the keyboard, but the overall speediness is killer.
Hell yea froyo/ CM.
So the point of this thread is to make sure i understand what I am doing before I do it. I have decided to update the cm7 on my phone. I was going to use the cm9 since it is the next stable release. But the people who talk about the Jellybean releases are super happy about them so i decided to skip ics. I looked into a thread for cm10 nightly releases vs hellybean. It was there i heard of Lanight. After reading more about it, it sounds like the version to go for right now. So my final problem became nodatadata vs datadata. I have a vague understanding of what the difference is from trying to search it up...but i did not come across a clear explanation. One way i can bypass the question is by asking "Was CM7 DATADATA or NoDATATA, and if they were both available, how do i figure it out."[/B.
This thread is to make sure that I have fully understood what i read and that i am not creating problems for myself later. I do appologize if this question has been answered a million times. Just one more time for me please.
CM always had datadata until, CM10, but they put it back in CM10.

I don't know much about Lanight but I do know that the dev created the two versions because some people were having wifi issues on one version and wasn't on the other. That being said I've run different roms, some of which are datadata and some that aren't, and haven't had issues. As far as causing trouble for you down the road the only thing I've ran into is the inability to restore your nandroid backup when going from datadata to nodatadata and vice versa. Occasionally I've ran into status 7 errors going between the different layouts but flashing the kernel by it's self for the rom you're going to prior to flashing the rom package generally solves that issue.
I've been running Liberty 2.0 on my D3 for quite a while now. Starting to get jealous of everyone who's one or even two builds up on me.
I looked into what ROMs were available for the D3 for ICS, specifically because some of the custom apps I use are not compatible with JB yet. I found HashCode's CM9 build and his AOKP build (which could be the same thing, and I just don't understand.
I also posted once before where someone recommended Gummy for the Droid 3, but I could never nail down which version was the most up-to-date and was working the best. I learned that they stopped working on the Gummy ROM over the summer, but if they had a working build, I would love to try it out.
All I am looking for is the most complete build of ICS on the Droid 3. I use this phone as my primary device, so I would like to be able to use the camera, internet, data, etc.
If anyone has any other suggestions, please feel free to recommend what you use/have used.

There is no 100% working ICS rom as of now, but with Kexec they have a custom kernel booting and building from there. I would settle into a GB rom for stability/everyday use and have either an ICS or JB rom just to test. You can check the development forum for the current active CM9/CM10/AOKP by Hashcode, the latest CM10 (Jelly Bean) Kexec rom only seems to have a sleep issue and no camera, everything else seems fine so far. Safe Strap 3.05 lets you have up to 5 bootable systems without swapping nandroid backups; Stock + 4 custom rom slots.
http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/how-to-safestrap/ Here is Hash's website about safestrap and to download.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804665 Here is the thread about Hash's current work on Kexec and available roms. Read up some of the last ~20 pages for current rom and information on it, just make sure to learn the new safestrap before playing around.
As for other roms; The Gummy team split up as I recall, no more Gummy roms...
Personal main usage; I use Maverick ROM 4.0, good battery, good tweaks, looks nice.. version 4.5 has overclock, but a bug in it causes battery drain so stick with 4.0.
Hi all,
So yes, I'm a prat. A massively lucky one. Earlier in the day, I managed to successfully root and upgrade the firmware on my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 to CM9, specifically cm-9.1.0-n7000.zip from the Cyanogenmod website. I got it working, and all was happy, shiny and right with the world.
And then, it all went Pete Tong when I tried to flash gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip on it, which promptly tried to make it go back to the stock firmware, and then it soft-bricked. I managed to recover from this minor boo boo, but I would love to know how I get my Google and Facebook contacts on there... any hints?

Hmmm? I'd start all over.
Is there a reason why youre using CM9? [since CM10.1 is out and pretty stable].
Anyway, the Gapps you installed was meand for Gingerbread [GB] [CM7] and CM9 is based on IceCreamSandwich [ICS].
If you decide to use CM10.1 which is Jellybean [4.2] youll need to use the latest JB based gapps with that.
Anyhow, if you use the proper gapps and sign into your google account on the first boot, itll synchronize with the google server and recover your google contacts. [it probably didnt work because as you said yourself the wrong gapps was installed.]
About facebook: Im not a bookfacer myself but i reckon when you install the facebook app, the contacts will be [MAGICLY] added to your contact list.
Goodluck!

I'm using that as CM doesn't appear to have a stable monthly build for my device on 10 or 10.1. I managed to finally get the right version of GApps, and they've come down, so many thanks. So that said, can you suggest a decent stable ROM? Unfortunately my Googling for this isn't up to par, as I'm not quite sure what to look for. Yes, I'm a n00b.

I think if you look around in android development youll find quite some interesting roms.
Most if not all roms are pretty much always under construction; however that does not mean theyre not stable enough to use as a daily driver.
That being said, i myself am quite happy and impressed by Paranoid Android 3, which is based on Android 4.2.2(JB).
Make a backup using cwm recovery and just give it a try.
Goodluck.

Hey guys, I am new to the forum I have an HTC One M7 running Carbon, and am loving it--it is possibly the best ROM out there at the moment. However, I am curious about possibly trying out OmniROM sometime soon, just to see what it brings to the table for me. Since the two are both based off of Cyanogenmod 11, would it be possible to install OmniROM without having to lose all of my settings and factory reset my phone? I was able to do this seamlessly between CM nightlies, so I am wondering if this would also apply to related ROMs. Thanks for you guys' help
Well it's very hit and miss. Sometimes it works fine sometimes not. Do a nandroid backup first and give it a go
