Hello everyone,
I've always liked CM and the different features it offers, so I was planning to flash latest Snapshot since I would like to use it as my daily driver. What's your experience with it? Any major bugs? Is it stable enough? Or should I consider something else, such as Xposed + some modules (such as GravityBox)? I'm currently running latest stock build 5.1 (LPE23.32-14.2).
Thanks for your help.
The latest snapshot isn't bad, but I've had more success with the nightlies simply because they have patches that haven't made it into the snapshot builds yet. I'd say try out a couple nightlies and just stick with one that doesn't have any issues for you.

Could you recommend any nightly in particular to begin with?
I'm on the 10/25 nightly and haven't run into any major issues yet.

So there was cm-10.2-20130814-NIGHTLY-quincytmo.zip released on 8/14 and cm-10.1.3-RC1-quincytmo.zip which was released on 8/28 as a release candidate. I'm confused on what the differences would be. Right now I've been running the 10.1 nightly's. In another post someone said the 10.2 was a 4.3 release, but wouldn't there be a stable release before a nightly release?
You had it right. They are trying to finish a 10.1 final, but there seem to be problems as the 10.1 branch just keeps going and going. The 10.1.3 is the latest attempt to close the door on Android 4.2.2 and move on to 4.3 exclusively.

But why is there a 10.2 nightly, wouldn't there first be a 10.2 stable? Should I keep going with the 10.1 nightly or should I download the 10.1.3 or 10.2?
The "stable" is the final release, its the last one. So night lies and M releases and RC's all come before Stable.
There are two branches being developed right now, 10.1.x, that has a "freeze" (no new features added) trying to get to a Stable final release, and 10.2 which will be what is developed from here on out.
What you run is up to you.
If you want new stuff just cause it is new I would suggest going with 10.2. It is not stable and reliable, but neither is 10.1 on our phones. To get something stable that doesnt randomly reboot you have to go back to the April M3 release or earlier.

Cool, thanks for the explanation.
On a side note I'm just waiting for the note 3 to come out hopefully in September and that it will have much more ROM support.
Hello people.
What are the differences between the latest cyanogenmod nightlies and the latest cyanogenmod pershoot?
Thanks
Nightlies will have generic cm11 updates. I suspect pershoot cherry picks the ones he wants for our device tree.
Nightlies are not considered stable releases.

Nightly versions are not considered stable. You can expect some bugs and issues when using nightly versions but in general they are relatively stable, you might not notice any bugs at all. You really have to test them to know, they are automatically compiled (not tested) so one version might be very stable and the version 2 days later can have some issues. If you are comfortable dealing with minor issues and flashing roms then you should be fine. If you want a 100% stable phone then nightly versions might not be for you.

There is no stable release of CM12 yet and don't expect one soon. I think they never released a stable version of cyanogenmod for the M7. The most "stable" version released were snapshot versions of CM11. If you are unsure about using nightly version then wait for the first CM12 snapshot version. Snapshot version is the most stable nightly of the month.

yeah, about snapshot i was talking, but thers isnt any release yet , so i will try the nightly !
I'll be dead honest. If you are looking for rock stable then stay stock. All roms have issues. Mainly for devices like the m7
What about gpe edition ?

When I say stock I meant official releases and as this version of a device with both OEM and gpe then both can be considered stock. So it's up to you which one you go wirh
I have been away for sometimes on this thread and am a bit confused about what rom would be really solid stable CM 12.1. I dont look forward to dump of tweaks. Stock CM would be nice too! So, Please tell me which CM you are using and you think is best and of course without bugs.
Thanks in advance. Peace.
I don't think that there's the "best" CM 12.1 ROM, all are nightly builds. I'd suggest you to install the latest version unless you want to use the relatively old Snapshot release.
I installed the latest nightly build on yesterday, working fine so far!
Hi,
I use Nook HD+ in my workplace only because its the tablet with no camera. I currently have CM10 and looking to update it to CM11 or 12 but not sure which version is the most stable. I don't care about the fancy features, just need no-lag and no crashes.
Which ROM and version (nightly/snapshot?) should I go for?
Thanks
Latest CM 11 nightlies is the most stable (in my opinion, of course). Tested it on my HD and HD+, my choice for both devices. Get it here for your HD+: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=ovation

Pacman ROM has been great for me. CM worked OK until I tried some of the unofficial Lollipop versions. I haven't tried Mokee, but pacman incorporates features from it.

I've used Tesamek's CM11.0 ROM for a long time without many problems. The display does flicker every now and then. Currently trying the CM13.0 ROM.
