[Q] Is the nighty CM9 stable?

Hello all
so i've heard alot of people here talking about this rom and it's "awesomeness" therefore it got me wondering how could it be that stable without being even an Experimental Mod?? btw i haven't flashed it yet, do you recommend it for gaming??

TGIF! and still there's no reply..

There are plenty of threads like this. CM will never be stable as a stock fw, but it's definitely worth a try. You could've known this from dedicated topic (thousands of posts).

Well, my CM7 was stable but i really wanted to try the CM9 and gaming is the most wanted feature i need.

I think that is often the case but not always. I have run versions of CM7 on my Nexus One that were far less problematic than stock.

They probably started out with some pretty good code. Of course they have been aggressively adding features. I've also been hearing that its pretty darn stable but still lacking a few things, like video recording, for example. I think the nature of "nightly" code changes makes it inherently more risky than what they call a stable release.

I have run CM9 myself (20120402 nightly build) and have to admit it's a pretty good job. Better than CM7, although it's still lacking some features (many placeholders throughout the ui). I suggest everyone gives it a go and judges by himself.
As a side note, I have abandoned CM until we get something more complete, and moved to a Nexus porting. Much more complete, although I am afraid that ICS has to wait quite a long time before it can be defined mature on our phone. In fact, I would like to revert back to GB (miui, maybe). I know that ICS is going to do much of our sgs, and I'm scared that it will be painfully hard to downgrade, having seen the goods that the future brings.

OK thanks everybody, i'll wait for the final release as the video recording is one of my essentials.

Do not even think to downgrade to GB, after you try ICS there is no going back.
I went from ICSSGS back to JW1 and now I am going to flash CM9, I only wanted GB back because ICS drained my battery very quickly, but there's no much difference.
Stick to ICS and save your time!
Cheers.

I flashed the CM9, everything worked just fine, but the battery was the reason for my downgrade, i'll try Miui then flash back to GamerzRom if Miui didn't support gaming.

The AOKP Rom with the Devil kerel has got a greate batterylife

^
link please?

if you want good battery life flash it with semaphone, you will get it as good as JVU or more.
The issues are that the colors seems washed, very low autobrightness and i get overheating while using data (wifi or 3g).
So CM9 isnt for me, i will stick back to JW4 that for me its the best rom atm

[Q] Most stable Roms

Hey guys im just looking around through all these Roms for the D3 and i was wondering which one is the most stable?
I like the ICS roms im running stock right now i just bought this phone and i am wondering which Rom i should try out any suggestions?

As far as I am concerned, the ICS and JB ROMs are not feature-complete enough to run as a daily driver yet.
I really like Minimoto myself (it's in the developer forum here.) Others that are feature-complete and run well are Maverick 4.0 and 4.5, Steel Droid 4.8, as well as Liberty 2.0. The issue with Liberty, and it's a minor one, is that it is not based on the latest 5.7.906 firmware. Otherwise, I think it runs well.
I really think it's best to install custom ROMs with Safestrap. The latest version of Safestrap is 3.0.5, which is listed as beta and has the occasional annoyance of not starting up when you want it to (it usually does if you keep at it, or start the phone while holding the "M" key, using VolDn to scroll down to "BP Tools" in the menu that pops up, and VolUp to select that option.) Also, if you do want to try Liberty, it will not start in Safestrap 3.0.5, so you'll have to use version 2.10 instead.
There are some JB ROMs to try from Hashcode that require Safestrap 2.10 or 3.05, but I haven't tried them myself.
Safestrap: http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/

steel droid 5.6 works well

I've been running AOKP JB, with the new sensors update,
works well, but no camera,
with safestrap, camera is only a reboot away

Liberty is the most stable ROM I've seen yet. Minimoto is very nice though and is very stable but has the best battery life of any ROM around.

+1 for Minimoto, so far one of the best stable stock based roms I've used. With alot of useful features and tweaks.

Yep really liking it so far. Just a few tweaks from being the fastest/best battery life rom out there

Minimoto
Minimoto is the most stable rom I have used that maintains custom features

thanks guys ill definitely look into these, i like stock it isnt a bad system i just like ics a lot better lol

My vote is for MiniMoto. I replaced stock with it and have not looked back. Stable and easy on the battery, super fast, super smooth, the launcher is my favorite, no need for Supercharge, just WOW.

Any of the new is roms work well except for camera so if you live with that then you're fine. There are also some small issues and bugs

Are the GB-based ROMS better than the ICS/JB-based ROMs in terms of general performance (responsiveness to touch, lag, etc..)? I tried the CM10 ROM and its performance was even worse than CM10 on a Samsung Galaxy S

Minimoto does good but the reason why is the governor is set to performance on CPU0 but not CPU1. But I'm not complaining.

This is another variant of those best rom threads - I forsee an argument coming up soon !
Op better realise that your query is highly subjective !

Thread closed. Best/most stable ROM threads aren't allowed as they're too subjective, you'll receive lots of differing opinions on the same thing. Only way is to try yourself and find the one that fits you best as that's what these forums are about.
Thanks AvRS.

[Q] Differences between the stock 4.1.2 and the custom KitKats

Are there any noticeable improvements (performance-wise) in the custom KitKat ROMs and the stock 4.1.2? I mean, are there any changes that you can feel and see, or is it just a new android version with fancy new features?
Also I'd wait until a stable version of OmniROM or CM gets built until I try to flash my device.

I have flashed CM nightlies, PA nightlies, 4.3 PAC and Omni ROM.. Each Rom has its own unique features and performance difference!..
But personally i would say, those has its own + and - things..
The last ROM i flashed 4.4.2 Dirt Unicorns Rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2633846 ) seemed Great to me.. Overall Nice features cheery picked from all ROMS but again its individual's preference in the end of the day and Every ROM is unique in its own way!
NOTE:- S-Note, S planner and other samsung apps will work only if you are flashing a Touchwiz based Rom.. Those apps wont work in CM, PA and AOKP Roms cuz they need TW framework to work with!
If you are thinking of flashing of TW based Roms, i would recommend 2 Roms to take a look at..
X-Rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320871 ) This is the Rom, i am currently using.. It will give your phone a tablet UI, thus taking advantage of your Note's large real estate screen! .. Multi window, floating window and buttery smooth and lots of features!
You can also check out the Note 8 Apps ported to our galaxy note N7000, if you are interested.. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217662 )
Arya Mod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52357155 ) This is also a great Rom and cool icons and themes!

I can't say I've been using any of the TouchWiz features, to be honest.
Just a few things I don't like on the stock ROM: The gallery takes a long time to open, opening the contacts takes a bit, and the animations sometimes glitch out (they just get skipped). And I'm locked to my current provider, but as my guarantee is at an end, I'm looking for a custom ROM to get out of the damn simlock, and maybe fix some other things as well.
So if you could just point out a few major differences (both performance wise, and feature wise) between CM, Omni and Dirt Unicorns, that'd be awesome. Of course I'd still wait for a stable version to come out.
I'm not really sure if I want a TW based ROM, not that I was using any of it's features. They always were a tad bit laggy on my phone. Mainly I'm looking for a ROM that'll run the smoothest, and that's the main thing, all eye-candy and fancy stuff is just icing on the cake. But I'll check out the ROMs you linked (the links seem to be wrong, tho). Thanks a lot!

I'll post another question in the same thread, so I don't have to open another one and clutter the board.
Are the OmniROM and CM nightlies stable? Also, is the only way to update CM to download and flash a new version of the OS, since there's that opendelta thing on Omni, where you can just download the update, just like real OTA?

They aren't stable but can be used as daily driver depending upon your usage. For Omnirom there is open delta, you can check for updates in settings>About Phone and it would only download the update not the whole rom.

I doubt 4.4 will ever be 100% stable, but god bless the cooks that keep coming up with updates, since for obvious reasons,
Samsung won't port past 4.1.2 officially.
Personally, for my usage, I've skipped everything past 4.1.2, as I can go weeks between reboots, lock ups, and with a custom
launcher (go launcher), my device is smooth and rock stable. It has a stock (DBT german international device) rom, rooted,
custom kernal just in case I forgot and didn't want to erase and endure the brick bug. Uninstalled the DBT bloat.
2+ years and still going strong.

Well there is only 1 ATT based rom to choose from and 2 ports on the 5.0 right now. I am running TMS5 v2.1 and love it. I get great battery life (depending if i'm playing games on the phone or not). IMO alliance and Twi5ted are a little buggie. I've ran both and am in no means putting them down cause they both are great but i guess because they are ported to the ATT phone you will run into problems here and there with them. Here's a link to TMS v2.0. To get the v2.1 you'll just have to ask someone which page it is on because it was never put in the OP cause its not a full rom, just an update.

Most stable G906S rom for my wife ;)

Hi.
I gave my G906S to my wife last year. I made my own ROM which was based off the stock 4.4.2.
I would like to update her phone but being my wife she needs something very stable and has good battery life.
Please recommend me a ROM.

No longer being developed but based on latest stock lollipop; it's stable and the battery life is the best I've experienced on LP. If you're looking for something near stock, optimized, with some of the bloat removed, I recommend this rom.

I installed Cm12.1 and boeffla kernel for my wife's G900f.
She likes the pink/black themes available and batterylife and performance is good.
No bugs.

Thanks folks, I ended up installing NovaRom_V1.5.5, and now I have to listen to her complain everyday about something ... when I tested it, it all seemed good.
I'll look in to Cm12.1
NaraeWiz V7.3 seems to be Korean.

It is Korean although I have it installed in English, and it's the closest to stock available. Of course, it has the stock Korean-English keyboard which I need - forgot about that - although it can be replaced with alternatives.
If your wife prefers stable, stock TW, you could try @xXx's Barebone's Cleaner: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-urwsoft-barebone-cleaner-t3043479
It's one of the fastest ways to debloat. I've used it in the past on my g906s. Stock LP 5.0.1 kinda sucks though but basically bug free except for the color fade issue.
