I'm itching to try CM now that it's official, but I depend on my phone and need stability. Does anyone who's tried it have any feedback? Anything broke?
i may have to flash that..
I wouldn't run the official nightlies for the time being until the data and MMS fixes get approved and merged. CVPS (Austin Dickenson) posted an Alpha 2 on his G+ with those fixes above so you would be better off running those.

Yea, wouldn't want those issues. I'd read some about that and assumed that since there was a couple of days between CVPS's fix and the posting of the official nightly that the fix would be included.
So, how actually stable and usable is this then.
I want to get CM10 or paranoidandroid running, but it looks as though its a gigantic pain in the ass right now with all these issues that people talk about.

I dunno, I've been running CM10 for weeks now with basically no problems. MMS is borked, but whatever.
I have seen a MMS fix and also think people are having problems depending on your phone. It will not hurt to flash it and flash back if you have problems.

Here's the code review for the patch:
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/21492/
In G+ he indicates it is a fix for MMS. Nothing is mentioned about losing IMEI. I haven't read anywhere where anybody has a handle on what causes that issue. It's seemingly random.
This post descibes how to backup and restore EFS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788443
And this post describes how to restore from scratch using a Windows PC, which isn't a lot of use for us Linux people because a Windows VM in Virtualbox doesn't seem to recognize the phone through USB:

Personally I think I'm going to wait until the IMES issue gets figured out. Phone runs pretty sweet as-is.

Does this assume that there aren't any glaring issues such as data/camera/mms etc requiring fixes?
FYI,
It is not listed anywhere on the get.cm Site... Only the i9300 international.

No regrets
I decided to take the plunge last night and have done a reboot with NO ill effects to my MMS or IMEI.
The stock CM camera is amazing. Video, FF and ZERO shutter lag are all present. I was worried about losing some of the touchwiz camera options, but I do not miss them.
Data works, but my room is a deadzone so I'll have to wait until I venture outside to see how capable it is.
Wi-fi seems a tad weaker, but not by much.
All of my apps work (netflix included) and the only "annoying" things I have found so far is HBO go not being compatible and Facebook Sync not working the way I would expect it to. I've read that the FB glitch is due to poor support from the facebook app, so I don't think it's really an issue with the ROM.
There is occasional homescreen glitching, which is very slight and happens almost never. It just causes the screen to flash a little bit. There is a fix for this problem but I think you have to re-apply it after every reboot. Either way, NOT a deal breaker.

Ty for the mini review.
Did you install with kexec or just flashed in recovery like normal?
I am now using the other recovery (can't recall the name) as I've read it's better, but I am used to cwm.
If it's just now a simple wipe/install that's fine.
Now I just need to back up the IMEI and back when I get a chance.
But it still doesn't look that official until I see it on the Site.
Maybe it's there but I'm blind

This. It has been up since last night. And it has the same problems but today's/tomorrows merges are fixing them. If you only want one dd to flash, maybe do it Sunday night or Monday morning. Those builds will likely have fixes merged. Or as other have stated use cvpcs prealpha build which is already fixed.

I actually enjoy touchwiz too. I never thought I would.
I am using nova launcher and tw, so far it's a nice fast combination.
I question why I'd step up to jb yet but always have this stupid urge to risk breaking stuff that's working fine.

Reunited with my HTC Rezound
I just flashed the latest (as of now, only) CM nightly from their website which requires an UNLOCKED bootloader to be installed on the phone. The EZ unlock app in the market is as dummy proof as it gets. Just make sure your device has root. Also, use CWM recovery provided in the EZ recover app also found in the market. Make sure you flash the right recovery, the first time I didn't check the correct radio button and flashed the stock recovery back onto the phone. That was a bit of a mind-f**k.
After some testing outside of the house I find that it has as good or better network signal than I had with "stock" ROMs. I don't ever recall having 4g with full bars before installing this ROM. The wi-fi still seems weak, but I'm sure it will get tweaked eventually!
I think it's amazing what developers do. Thank you, wherever you are.

Hi guys,
I am by no means a stranger to aokp and I use it on my galaxy nexus
I am having trouble getting data to my girlfriends skyrocket.
I use the APN settings I see other people changing to - which causes the phone to switch in and out of 3g and 4g very quickly allowing for no data to pass through the phone.
should I flash a new radio to fix this?
Thanks
I have tried flashing to the latest ICS radio - that didn't work.
I also tried feflashing the whole rom - that didn't work
I tried restoring apn settings to default - it keeps hanging
any ideas?
I had the same problem. I switched to SKY ICS until I can get it working. It is a common issue people are having and it seems like a fresh download and trying over and over are the only fixes. No concrete solution from what I have read.

Also I use Apex Launcher instead of the Touchwiz that comes stock on the Sky ICS. It has a great feel and my phone feels so smooth on his rom. If you wait a couple weeks there should be a really good and stable Jelly Bean rom coming out.

haha well I tried CM9 this time, and while it had the correct APN's installed already and the most recent ICS radio - it still had data issues - not as bad - but it had issues still with switching from 3g to 4g rapidly....trying SKY now
I'm having no problems with data running aokp. When I first flashed, I didn't notice the cingular apn that was set by default (still got data..). Running mine on UCLE2.

I'm getting different answers from different people....some people data worked with out modding, some people, data worked after modding, other people data just didn't work.
I have tried 3 modems, redownloading and reflashing 3 times, and I have tried both CM9 and AOKP and nothing worked.
hopefully they will find the issue (what ever it is) and fix it soon.

I did edit the apn to the ATT one just to be on the safe side. Didn't notice it at first tho like I said cuz I had data from the get-go.
I'd been running a CM9 nightly (20120710) for awhile, and during that time, I got some NFC tags and have really enjoyed using them in combination with Tasker to automate various things. When I saw that CM9 had a stable release out, I decided to go ahead and flash it.
After I flashed the CM9 stable release, everything seemed to work fine, until the next morning when I tried to use an NFC tag. It wouldn't scan at all, and I didn't get the NFC chime sound or anything. Disappointed, I decided to flash the latest nightly (20120816). NFC still doesn't work.
I've checked the settings, and NFC is turned on. I've turned it on and off a couple times, but that didn't do any good. I took the case off of the phone, took the battery cover off, and it still wouldn't read the tags. And I know the tags I have are still good, since my Nexus 7 can read them just fine.
Also, with both the stable build and the 20120816 nightly build, Android Beaming to and from my Nexus 7 and my Skyrocket seems to work just fine. So, it seems like the NFC stuff is there and connected and all that, but it just doesn't recognize the tags anymore.
Does anyone else have the same issue, and /or does anyone have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong or how I could fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Summary:
Currently running CM9 20120816 nightly (UCLE2 radio) on my AT&T Skyrocket.
Phone's NFC can't read tags on either CM9 stable build or the CM9 20120816 nightly build, but Android Beam still works.
Phone's NFC could read tags perfectly on the CM9 20120710 nightly build.
(If I've posted this in the wrong place, please feel free to tell me that I'm ugly and dumb )
Can anyone confirm that they have the stable release or one of nightlies from after the stable release and NFC tag reading works them?
If so, then I guess the issue is with my particular phone. If not, then maybe I can just wait and hope that a future nightly will fix my issue.

Nah, I already had one of those. I like Android better.
So, I figured that when you mentioned "the cm9 thread," you had a specific thread in mind. Was I incorrect in that assumption?
So only the 710 build works for you? Have you tried the build that came out today? also check your battery as thats also part of NFC as well. Wish I could test them but I dont have any tags on me.

Thanks for the reply.
Correct... though I didn't try any of the builds between 710 and the stable build, so those all might have worked as well. I've pulled the battery a few times just to make sure it's seated properly and all that, and that hasn't helped so far either.
I'll try the newest build later this evening. If that doesn't work, I might try going back to the 710 build just to see if it still works with that. If it does, I'll put the latest build back on and just hope the NFC gets fixed in a future build. If it doesn't, then... I dunno. I might hold a funeral for my NFC tags or something.
Thanks again!

You're welcome, glad I could help. And thank you for confirming that it's not just me or my phone.
After I flashed the 710 nightly, I was pretty happy with it, and then got kinda busy with work and family stuff. Because of that, I never got around to flashing anything after the 710 build until the stable release came out. What I'm trying to say is, for all I know, NFC could have worked great in some of the builds between 710 and stable.
Whichever version you decide to fall back to, if you have time, could you post back here to confirm whether it made NFC work again or not? I'm just curious is all.
Thanks again!

Scanning a tag does not respond and firing up any app which requires NFC results in a crash.

I have had the same experience. I get nothing when scanning an NFC tag with cm9.1 stable. When wanting to mess with NFC tags, I actually restore a backup of the stock ATT ROM and it works perfectly with NFC. But I like CM9.1 enough to want to run it normally and deal with the switcheroo. Hopefully, the next stable version of CM will work with NFC:fingers-crossed:

Confucius says: if one dozen users have problem, the ROM does not work. If one user has problem, the user does not work.
Are you following all the instructions in the OP? Because, and I don't even run Superlite, I can kinda tell by your post that you're not, and it's causing major problems for you. If you want to try Superlite again, go back and read the entire thread before you flash, then follow vincom's instructions to the letter. If you don't want to try Superlite again, well, why did you post this?
I've been waiting for an official OTA JB update for a while.
While I'm sure there are nifty bells or whistles with JB the only thing I care about is a better radio. If JB offered more accurate/reliable voice dial I'd probably put a hacked version of JB on my phone as that is about the only thing I can think of that Android doesn't do well enough for me. VLINGO seems to be very accurate for voice dial in comparison.
Jelly Bean works fine. I take it you are still on ICS? Google Now works great for voice dialing. Has about a 99% success rate for me.
As soon as I bought my GS3 I unlocked & installed the JB leak, & now CleanROM. But I came from a G.Nexus, so I was already spoiled on JB.

It might be QC, but I hear they are in other phones and work OK. I had the ET4G on sprint and the radio was fine on that - not sure if that was QC or not.

Notes: Since Data is not working, to save battery turn off DataConnection in Mobile Networks settings. To access Developer Options, go to About Phone and tap Build number several times until it tells you you are a developer, then access the options as normal.

Yeah I don't think they want to keep this phone going. They want us to buy new ones. I'm going to have to wait for income tax refund time. That's OK, I really like my phone with Tweaked on it.
The thing I think is funny is the iPhone commercials keep bragging about stuff my poor old Charge already has.
WOW!! I leave the droid charge community for a few months and this is what happens??? Simply incredible. As I have relegated my charge to WIFI only duty this is nearly perfect. The only issue is that it never actually boots. The boot animation just keeps on going and going and going. Does the file system need to be converted to EXT4 before flashing? I'm using the latest 0302 recovery too. Thanks in advance!
Nevermind. Got it up and running. Seems like the recovery updated itself somehow (shrug) and flashed it using the brand new CWM looking recovery and it's working. Can't wait to play around with this later.
Excuse me while I change my shorts.

Just wondering (I'm not a developer or anything), but to get DATA working couldn't we throw in the Factory Test.apk? I was looking at what was running, and it always is. Then I looked at what it is and it all has to do with the RIL.
I am actually looking into trying this build! I usually have Wi-Fi wherever I go so DATA isn't too big of a problem. If it does ever get fixed I believe this would be the Charge's lifesaver.
Any news on the issue that people are having getting it to install?

FactoryTest is in this build, it is required for secPhone.apk to work. I'm not actually sure if it helps or not but its in there. I'm not sure on the boot issues, after installing I would just make sure to wipe data and it should be fine.

I have wifi at home only. Is someone actively working on data and whatnot?

I said where I come from, not where I live. I live in Madison, WI (UW Madison campus) and there is literally wifi almost everywhere on campus. I am from rural Wisconsin, where Verizon and US Cellular are the only viable carriers.
Two questions.
So people have gotten this to install?
Is it easy to switch back to Tweaked after installing this?

Check my edit. It installed just fine. Still not optimized, but it's a VERY functional build.
