CM10 vs AOKP (as of 08/25/12)? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I'm debating between the two above rooms. Any personal experience with either? Which one is a better daily driver? How's the camera and video camera for each? Feel free to add any other info

All your answers are opinionated. Id browse both threads and flash both roms. Only way to answer your questions is to form your own opinion :beer:

They are both broken in some capacity....id wait until they both work 100% then make a choice.

CM10 is better atm, however this is my opinion. I'd say install cm10 with the blue and black theme. Along vwith the circle battery mod and run it for a day.

You can try both of them out yourself ....

At this point I find both of them to be almost equally stable with CM10 narrowly out performing AOKP. I use AOKP because I like it more, but like everyone else I think you should just try both.

Can only speak for CM10, but it's been a great experience over the last week I've been using it. Camera (stills, video, and panorama) works very, very reliably.
Only one thing to worry about - the 8/19 build and the 8/21 build are almost identical, but the 8/19 build has quieter speaker phone output while the 8/21 build makes the caller's voice quiet on the other end. Personally I went back to the 8/19 build for that reason.
I did enjoy AOKP 6.3/6.4 while I was on it, but I've found CM10 to be a more reliable and polished experience so far. Can't speak for AOKP JB.

I use AOKP,but the best thing to do is to try out both, you can't go wrong with either. To make things better both Devs help each other out which makes it a win for our community. To top things off I believe Rohan is still in high school which shows off his talent and potential.

Such as?? Anything major?

The CM nightlies have been better than aokp. Once the headset and auto brightness problems are fixed on aokp I will probably jump over.

I have no major issues on the 8/19 build of CM10. Builds after that have some minor issues now that the nightlies have started; they primarily seem to be coming from upstream. I imagine in the next week or so it'll all be cleared up.

I use CM10 as my daily driver now, and I have found it to be a polished Jellybean experience. I flashed AOKP for a few days but found the layout of CM10 to be laid out in a more sensible way. Both have problems but CM10 has a larger community on our XDA forum as of now. The devs of both mods are cooperating to produce two ROMs that allow for the best user experience possible.
The only problem I have found with CM10 is that, when streaming audio, there will be crashes sometimes. It happens once or twice daily. Everything else works smoothly and will only get better as h8 (the CM10 dev) begins to fully incorporate project butter.

No its not, never has been

AOKP is built by using device, vendor and kernel trees used by CM. The framework, applications, etc are based off of AOSP. CM also based on those same things from AOSP.
CM and AOKP are closer to siblings, rather than parent/child.

You will never know unless you try. The deal breaker I grabbed AOKP bec it was running full audio and music in my car bluetooth - for me thats kind of a big deal. CM10 is having issues, vincom posted fix for the audio music but not when talking calls in your car. Oh and... I used that fix for the AOKP rom to play my music.

Will the developers be able to fix up the mess that HTC made of multitasking on this phone once the kernel source is released? It is the one thing that is making me want to return this phone.

neither of those are complete, not daily drivers as of yet, need source then they will be great alternatives.
As far as fixing the MT issue, hard to say. I'd say that once we get source that someone will be able to do something with it ..hopefully..
I'm using cm9 alpha 4 and the multitasking is very improved. I'm impressed with this ROM for not having kernel source everything is very smooth.

AOKP is actually pretty complete and stable. NFC isn't working among other small things, but its a definitely good daily driver.

I'd say AOPK (M6.1) is just fine as a daily driver. It's stable and everything important works. (wifi,data,bluetooth,etc). Multitasking is great on it.

Has it really been fixed or just improved? Does it still kill an app after a certain amount of time? I was under the impression that multitasking was just improved greatly, and only greatly depending on your usage. Works well for some scenarios and not at all for others... Android is killing apps after a certain amount of time no matter what. Probably fixable completely after source though..

Using the Multitasking Mod is an improvement, but by no means fixed. Read up on another thread that the S4 SOC is a little memory hungry too. Hopefully we can claw back some of that RAM while still keeping things stable once the source is released (damn you AT&T).

I realize there are things that still don't work but I have always been under the impression that to be considered a daily drive a ROM must be stable and have mostly everything working. AOKP fits that category. Of course if there is a feature not yet working that is important to an individual then the ROM is not yet ready for that person but in any case when all major functions are working as well as the majority of features I'd say it can be called a daily driver. Wasn't trying to call you out.

[Q] AOKP or CM9?

I'm currently using Milestone 6 AOKP on my Skyrocket and it's pretty great. The only thing is, CM9 released a stable RC for the Skyrocket and i'm wondering if it would be better to switch to CM9 than AOKP? Although I know they have their differences, i'm wondering the Pro's and Con's of each ROM if anyone can think of any.
Thanks!

Well the thing is, about AOKP M6, is that it doesn't come with a Music Player, I have to install an app to wake the phone screen for every text. My Messaging always freezes up, randomly shuts off, a whole load of things and I just think i'm going to swap over to CM9 right now to check it out and see how it is.
Oh and also, some of the features on AOKP such as the "Task manager style changing feature" doesn't seem to be anywhere on Milestone 6. Can't find where to actually change the style of it.
Sounds like cm9 is the way to go

I've settled on CM9 mostly because AOKP has a lot of minor bugs that irritate me, i've reported them but have been ignored. One thing is whenever I lock my screen after texting someone, once I receive a text and unlock the screen, the predictions for the keyboard would not pop up. I'd have to close out of the Messaging app and open it back up which is an annoyance if you text a lot.
Plus, AOKP only releases an update/build every....month. Not willing to wait a month just to fix some minor annoyances when I can switch ROMs and fix it in a day. AOKP is still a great ROM, just not for me.

And also, i'm on the Release Candidate for the Skyrocket, CM9, and i've encountered no issues thus far. Of course, the screen doesn't light up when a text is received, so it must be ICS related. Other than that, so far so good.

What are some good AOSP roms?

You could a found this out by looking into the original android development section however, get cm10 its currently the most stable aosp ROM. Jelly bean goodness on ur phone. Sense blows.
Oh and aokp isn't far along either, they're are almost as good as cm10 and only getting better. Try both see which one u like.

Judging by your comment, you are not ready for aosp roms yet
Dont quote me on this but I'm pretty sure our custom sense ROMs are more stable than our AOSP ROMs. I'm a big fan of sense and to give up my precious sense camera is a hard thing to do, the AOSP ROMs arent far enough along yet for me to make that sacrifice. Just my opinion though
I'm pretty new to Android, but after having sense for 2+ months and just today flashing the CM10 beta in the original development forums, I must say I am very much liking it. True there are definitely some kinks to work out most notable to me the camera is different and speakerphone...but other than that, it is very fast and pretty stable. I'll definitely be following development and sticking to this for a few weeks minimum.
I haven't actually received my One X yet (I should next week) but what actually does change with the camera on AOSP ROMs? I'll probably be putting AOKP on it immediately when I receive it, so I was just wondering.

I personally am I fan of and use AOKP as my daily driver with very few problems. The down is the camera. To fix the problem I keep a back up of the latest sense ROM from XsMagical. So when I have times when I know I will need the camera I can do a quick restore with no problems. It only take a minute or two to back up and restore a ROM on our phones.

So far everyone who has received a One X as a replacement for an S II i777 has received one with 1.85. I'm not even going to get accustomed to Sense. I'm immediately unlocking, rooting, and romming. I really love the pure Android experience since I've had it on my S II. Anyway, what changes does it make to the camera? Does it just change the software (filters, etc) or does it actually change the quality of the photos? Thanks!
AOKP is phenomenal. It is based on CM10, so it is VERY similar, but it is MUCH more customizable
are you getting wakelock issues? my phone on CM10 cannot get into a deep sleep so i'm debating aokp but see that some have similar issues.

About 2 months ago I made the switch to CM10. I was running it for about a week and had to go back to sense. Wakelocks were outrageous. I might give this a go. I've seen pictures taken with an AOSP rom and Ive seen close to Sense quality pictures. Just feel AOSP is so much cleaner and faster. Just hoping alot of the bugs have been fixed. Even wanted to try CM9 but heard it had some issues too.

CM10.1 as a daily driver. Who is pulling this off?

I want to use CM10.1 as a daily driver, but all of the bugs and small nicks make me go back to more developed and stable TW roms. Anyone using 10.1 as a daily? Can you give me your opinions on it? Which rom are you using? What bugs do you notice?
Thank you

The in call volume has been fixed for me so I'm going to run it as a daily driver from now on.
Bluetooth audio is still completely broken I hear but it's not something I depend on or use without going out of my way.
Unless some other huge bug manifests, all is going pretty well.
So far there are two main issues that make me consider going back to TW:
1. Sometimes when I interrupt a game from loading, the entire system is laggy as hell until I reboot
2. There is a small delay when answering the phone. I don't know who can hear who during that delay, but its annoying nonetheless.
I'm waiting for the stretched image bug to be fixed on multi-window ROMs before I go back to TW though. It's definitely daily driver worthy.

Been daily on mine since the unofficial cm10 back in August, fine here but maybe I just can't stand TW. Only little issue Ive come across that bothers me is sometimes it will think a short press on menu/home is a long press and have to reboot. Bluetooth audio is fine if you go into the build.prop and modify lpa.decode to false

Been using as daily driver since unofficial cm10, lost IMEI and had some pretty good scares but I have been loving it ever since. I would say the only issue for me right now is the screen flickering which can be somewhat fixed by disabling HW overlay, which does not seem to stick through a reboot.
thank you all for the replies. I was running CM10 for a while, but I just resorted back to TW. I can't wait until all the nicks and bugs get sifted out of 10.1. Pure Google is the way to go.

if you are going to "wait for all the nicks and bugs get sifted out", you might always have a wait. Custom ROMs are just that, custom, and sometimes, what works for one phone won't work for another.
Just pick one that you like the features, and learn work arounds or ignore the "nicks and bugs"
Thanks to all the DEVs! I love waving my modded S3 under everyone running stock and asking why their phones can't do what mine does!

I ran liquid's for two weeks or so, but my flashing addiction made me try something else. Went back to AOKP 4.1 but now I'm back on stock TW that I made a few modifications to. I replaced the MMS app and keyboard with AOSP as well as the UI sounds, and I'm fairly content for now. Usually any kind of lags annoys me, but I've found JB Touchwiz to be alright ( I was an avid HTC user prior. Touchwiz is way smoother than Sense.)

I want to use CM10.1 as a daily driver, but all of the bugs and small nicks make me go back to more developed and stable TW roms. Anyone using 10.1 as a daily? Can you give me your opinions on it? Which rom are you using? What bugs do you notice?
Thank you

I am running the CM 10.1 Official NIGHTLIES. They have been my daily driver since almost beginning of the month. My custom ringtone only rings once when someone calls, answering calls ends up with a weird delay before anyone can hear you. A couple of other small bugs, but no deal-breakers that I really see.

I like slim bean 4.2 but I am not able to find a working wifi tether for it. Most 4.2 roms I cannot get wireless tether working
Update. Running 10.1. I dirty flashed from 10 and all my problems were solved. Pretty awesome having the latest version of android. Love it. Battery life can be better though haha

I love CM, but lately it seems they have too much going on. The barely got 4.1 working, and came out with the M2 release, and then moved on to 4.2, which is CM 10.1. I prefer to stay with a dev that will tweak their ROM and stick with it until they get it right. That's why I will not use CM anymore. Unless they have hundreds of devs working constantly to keep up with the number of devices they support, they're eventually going to become a ROM that's unreliable. I hope I wrong, but with the S3 they're clearly not completing one OS before moving to another, which makes them a no go IMO.
Battery life has been absolutely incredible for me on 10.1. 9 hours on battery all on 4G with 20 min screen on at 80%

Just flashed the DarthStalker ROM onto my S3 I've had for about 2 weeks now, it works beautifully, I've gotta say. Super fast, native WiFi hotspot/USB tethering, I would highly recommend at least checking it out.

Are 4.2 roms becoming far more stable?

So I have been on Beans for a while and I love it since it is tw with a aosp touch and feel but lately I have been noticing in the developmental thread that there are now far more 4.2 roms out there. I know that aosp has been pretty damn buggy just a month or so back but are they now stable? or dare I say it almost daily driver worthy? Im actually in the process of downloading the latest liquid smooth rom to check it out and I cant wait to see the results.
I've tried all the 4.2 ROMs and the only one where everything works on my phone; GPS, MMS, call volume etc, is mastamoons build. I know ROMs work different on everyone's phone though.

I think that most of them are stable in the sense that they can be daily drivers depending on what features you need.
All of them except for baked black bean and mastamoons unofficial builds use a new audio stack that breaks Bluetooth audio streaming.
All of them have issues with encrypted Wi-Fi tethering.
I've been using the baked ROM, it's awesome. Haven't had any random crashes, audio and GPS work well, and data is pretty good for the most part

So baked has everything working so far? Honestly for me I never ever use blue tooth or wifi tethering which is why that has never really bothered me. As long as data, sms, (group texting is the main reason i want to go to 4.2) and gps works then I am totally fine. Oh and of course battery cant be totally horrid haha

is it possible to just install the tw gallary in camera and use that instead? or does it have to the aosp stuff?

I've been running Baked BlacKBean7, for 2-3 weeks now, so yeah, I guess you could call it a daily driver.

Mastamoon's 1/18 build of CM works great. It's the only 4.2 ROM I can find with functioning bluetooth.
