Hye, can I ask something?
What's the difference between
CyanogenMod 7.1 RC1 => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1240177
and
CyanogenMod 7.1 Nightly Builds => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268304
Try to search for it, but still cannot find the difference.
Thanks.
Ummm, the differences come...get ready....nightly.
Sorry, not trying to be an ass, but couldnt resist. Nightlies are updated more or less nightly with new tweaks and features. RC is the last known stable, non-experimental build. If you follow the nightly thread, I'm sure someone will be posting links to the changelog.

It's okay. Still newbie here.
Yes, the word nightly. I know that, but after try searching the difference, still know nothing.
So, what do you mean is, nightly builds is official rom from cyanogenmod?
They are both official, but nightlies contain changes done to improve the roms, ofcourse doesn't always mean that it improves. Those are what I like to think of as "experimental". RC stands for release candidate. Rc's have been known to be the latest stable rom that is ready for public testing. Still, rc's are just released to receive approval, once everyone likes it, it may become official, or Stable release. You'll know when they're unofficial, they will state so in the threads name.
RC[Release Candidate] is the Stable Release While Nightly Builds are often modified with new tweaks and always improved, which means nightly are quick updated
CyanogenMod RC and Nightly Builds explained
In the world of CyanogenMod...
7.1 = indicates the version number of the mod
RC = Release Candidate, mostly bug-free, also known as "stable", change log usually available
Nightly Builds are
Beta
No change-log. Cyanogen fans accept that they would rather a Modder/Developer spend time working on a new version, than taking precious time to write change logs documenting every thing they did/tweaked.
Not released at a certain time (night).
Not released EVERY night, could be weekly.
A new "nightly" version is released, when the developer/modder is ready to upload it.
Any inquiries of when a new RC or nightly will be available will receive the following tin-can reply, "it'll be ready when its ready."
"Nightly" CyanogenMod fans/users are like Pit Bulls who haven't been fed in 3 days. They look forward to a new version every "night", even if its bugged and bad. If the a new "nightly" released version is very buggy, the CyanogenMod fan/user will simply restore/revert to an earlier CyanogenMod version that worked, whether its nightly or RC version, simply using the "restore" of a backup function. All CyanogenMod fans are advised to backup, before doing any changes. Those that don't, usually regret it, and won't do it again.
Those Developers/Modders working tirelessly to improve upon the CyanogenMod are doing it for the most part on their own time late at night. Bugs expected, because it wasn't thoroughly tested because so many CyanogenMod fans are eager and hungry for the latest version with cool features and tweaks and hope to not wait a month+ for an official-mostly'debugged-version(RC).
Each Android Mobile requires dedicated Modders/Developers, because every mobile has different ram/rom/processor/buttons/irks/camera and requires a special build. Therefore if you have an outdated mobile (ie. G1) that no dedicated Modders/Developers are using, you may never see an CyanogenMod update again.
In the world of updating a Android OS, if you fix/add one feature, it may/will break/not-work another feature. Usually the first thing to break/not-work the camera &/or the video camera &/or the front camera. If you're planning to become a Developer/Modder, expect a lot of frustration.

In answer to the qusetion; nothing.
The RC1 in the link is an official port for Cyanogen7 that is so much of a recent development that it is not yet included in the CM Nightly releases that have already been explained. I'm guessing that it will still be a port until after this round of updates when Nexx's excellent "RC1" will finally be fully integrated into the Cm device family.
As very little can happen to a nightly build sometimes, Nexx just can't be arsed to update nightly, he just does it when there's a biggy in the changelog.
Keep up the good work Nexx. v105 is Solid.
What do I know? http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=saga :s
hey i am currently following the CM10 nightly releases and installing each one as they come out but today i tried the JellyBam rom stable release and i wanted to know how i could take the settings for Paranoid android and make a flashable zip for everytime i update to the newest nightly
i have tired to follow tuts on how to port ParanoidAndroid but it didnt work out for me i am getting stuck in the boot logo loop.
i want just paranoid settings i dont want the aokp or the jellybam settings.
thanks for taking time to read this. and hope i get help lol
Still no help
Hey guys,
So I haven't picked up my tf300t for quite a long time and I'm on CyanogenMod nightlys and I go to update it but it keeps looping the asus logo on me.
running
CyanogenMod 10.1-20130624-NIGHTLY-tf300t
I try and use goomanager to update my nightly to the newest nightly build "cm-10.2-20130904-NIGHTLY-tf300t.zip" and when it reboots it just loops on me.
So thankfully i've backed up myself and restore to my current build cm10.1-20130624nightly.
Anways, so I install the latest TWRP build
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob 2013-08-29 21:45:14 PDT
thinking that that might help, seeing as how i'm running android v. 4.2.2
It doesn't help. So i try and flash the 9/4 cm 10.2 nightly via TWRP and it still won't work.
I'm just really wondering what step I'm missing. I know I've probably missed something obvious so I don't mind if you guys lay into me for being a moron. I just would like to be running the latest CM10.2 nightly out there right now.
TIA you guys, I'll keep searching these threads for help, but if you can, tell this idiot OP what he's missing and what he should do. Stay classy yall

It might be an issue with the version of your bootloader, to use CM 10.2 yo need to update your bootloader and to do so yo need update to the latest stock and then update to the custom rom you wan´t.
Also is it unlock, if you you need to install twrp 2.5

hi, i have flashed CM 10.2 build number 20120824 on my s4 i9500 and it worked but there are problems with the camera and moving apps to sd card and some other problems. My question is if i install a newer build of CM would that fix the problem ? i have looked a lot and found newer builds but im not sure if they fix some of those problems.
Thank you
cyanogen issues
cyanogenmod 10.x has many issues
such as camera and the other thing
so i think if you flash a newer build of CM it is not working so much
There is often a changelog. Read it to get info about open bugs/ or solved problems. Or backup your device and try out a newer version.
Hi all, so I've been messing around with the different CM builds and I think I've determined that CM 10 stable might be best for me - it's blazing fast. The only issue is that Google+ will not install, and from what I've found I might need the Team EOS Gapps for 4.1 to install. The only problem is that I can't find them anywhere - I've found links to them, but the files have been removed for some reason. Only ones I've managed to find are for 4.2, and they don't work. Does anyone have the 4.1 Team EOS Gapps laying around they can upload (dated July 2012 I believe)? Thanks!
