Is there any reason to have one over the other? Why are they still releasing nightlies after the stable release came out? I'm currently using the latest nightly and wondering if I should switch.
Thanks.

Read the thread, it describes why it's named release, and why there are still nightlies. Having the newest nightly is probably still best.
Which thread? I couldn't find that info.
Here is the explanation for you.

Unfortunately we do not have official cm9 for glacier. Therefore we do not get official cm9 nightlies.

Here's some info about cm9/cm10...looks like official cm ports might be coming our way eventually

If you want to run cm9 ports right now I can recommend either of these:

I've been running cnote74's with no issues but plan on installing 0.0's today to try it out.
Hope this helps!
I see they made a stable build and then a new nightly the day after? Was this a mistake or what?

No, nightlies are automatically compiled whether there are new changes or not. The ones that are labeled RC2 or stable build are ones they feel that is good enough for release. Any new changes in nightlies can introduce new bugs so usually its test at your own risk but for the most part they should run fine.
Pretty much its like saying this build is stable, then they say oh lets change this to see if it helps with this but it ends up messing up so they revert back to the stable build. RC2 is more of a milestone and with the stable 9.0.0 build that one they announced was going to be the last build as they're going to be working on CM10/Jellybean. It will still get nightlies but most of the time additional changes will either be minor (that doesnt affect you) or critical (a bug that needs to be fixed). :good:
Hi all.
I am interested in running a vanilla ICS or JB rom on this phone, and CM9 or CM10 will also do. Where can I find information on builds for this phone? Cyanogenmod does not have it under their "supported" devices....
There is a whole forum containing what you are looking for: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1726
Yes I am aware of that forum, but I posted here because it was a "question"...?
My confusion is that there seem to be a ton of forks from cm9/cm10 and I didnt know if there was one that was better than another, or how to go about weeding through them. Its just messy to try and figure out.

There are only 4 options? AOKP ICS, AOKP JB, CM9 and CM10. You can pretty much disregard all the other ones if you're looking for CM based roms. Also, we are officially supported by CM10...Though you should read that forum before downloading and flashing. Some of the unofficial fixes have not been merged yet.

Ok, thanks!
I am reading up on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790032
which hopefully should give me all the info I need to know.
What are your thoughts on stability/battery life with CM10 or CM9? I am on the fence between this and the S3, and would lean a bit more towards whichever one would get the most stable, updated rom....

CM10 is stable enough for a daily driver as long as you don't rely on your camera/video camera too much (though this may be fixed now, didn't test). However, with nightlies you're always risking flashing a broken build. That's just how the game is played on any device.

CM-10 stable has been released on Nov 15. Why are there still nightly roms coming out these days? Shouldn't they work on cm-10.1 now?
Because there's always room for improvements, no software is perfect and somebody would stick to 4.1 instead of pushing his/her device too much with 4.2

It could also be that these updates are leading into the 10.1 builds .... and also there is always something that needs getting fixed

Because stable != final. Misconception a lot of people seem to have.
Guys, I am flashing Carbon as the first rom for my Rooted Crespo! But Before I do so, I wanna know whats the difference between the unofficial build of the rom and the Nightly versions? I have also heard about the Marmite kernel, so what do I flash? Faster reply will really help!

The differences are slight... I prefer the unofficial, but some bugs may be present, though I never had any issue nor do the nightlies guarantee stability... I was getting more speed with the unofficial vs the nightlies but only a bit.. Marmite is good and I liked devil kernel as well..

That's the latest unofficial build. It's almost as smooth as the first unofficial, but with more features.

Same as official thread. Unofficial builds are created by Gingo21 (more optimized), while official builds are automated.
The main difference I've noticed is that the the accelerometer doesn't work yet in the nightlies, but does in the unofficial.
