Choppy CM10 a2 kernel

Can't post this in the development section as a response so I will post it here. Does the new InstigatorX 6.1 kernel work on TeamChopsticks CM10 8/12 a2 ROM? YES!!! Everything works great. Camera, video and landscape work also. Only issue is I get FC's using Facebook sometimes but that is minor for me. Used CWM 6xx to flash. Flashed rom, gapps 7/29 and kernel flawlessly. As always, thanks to everyone involved for making our phones much more enjoyable! Enjoy!

Calling and texting also work good. No issues yet. Still an alpha so you may have issues with other programs. Chances are that we don't have the same stuff. Only thing is overall phone volume has been low since I first flashed CM9 two months ago. Easy fix was downloading a volume boost app.

I agree completely but it is strange that I was using 6.0 before upgrading to 6.1 and worked flawlessly, my problem is flash not working for videos on the sites I browse that previously worked before

YouTube and Break apps work without fc'ing. Have noticed the same on actual websites with flash though. like ebaumsworld, but I can usually refresh the page and it loads.

r4ins is going to keep up with the AOKP Jellybean project since armyvet is not, and gmillz will also probably keep building on their ROM. I'm on the 8/5 with the 1a chopsticks base and InstigatorX 6.2 kernel. If you're experiencing a "choppy" feel, check out either the Darkside or InstigatorX kernel and pick a good frequency governor. That can help a lot. On any of these early ROM's you're going to still get FC's and reboots.. they're Alpha's. If avoiding that is the most important thing to you, I would stick to CM9, Chimera, SkyICS, or a similar ICS ROM.

CM9 non-kexec

Does anyone know if there is a non-kexec cm9 port available? Or can i flash the the old version with a new kernal? I have been searching, but it seems that all the focus is on JB. I want to run a stable vanilla build while the kinks get worked out in cm10. Thanks much.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

I am actually curious here. What does CM9/ICS have that the CM10/JB builds don't? I obviously jumped right to JB because I could but is CM9 worth the step back?
Anyway, I think there is a way to remove kexec. I don't have time to search for it right now, but I will try to remember to pop back to this thread tonight and see if anyone else hasn't helped you yet.

CM9 doesn't have any features that CM10 doesn't. I am just looking for a stable daily driver. I tried CM10, and there are a few bugs that are deal breakers for me. I understand CM9 has a stable release, I just can't find anyone that has ported it to the vzw gs3. Thanks for your help, if you come across anything I'd be grateful. I'll keep searching and post if I find any worthy info.

You know, ive been thinking the same thing. Ever since I got my original droid, ive been hooked on CM. Amazingly fast and vanilla. Now that I got rid of my iPhone and got the GS3 for Verizon, I want that goodness back without the nightly status. Jellybean isnt a big deal to me. Im not commiting to CM10 nigthlys till its at least in RC status. But i do however want CM9 stable for the GS3

I'm on offical JB AOKP test build 6. Loving it. Been rocking it for about 5 days without any issues.
I am very particular about bugs too because i use my phone for work so much and can't deal with issues.
You might give it a go.

Most Stable AOSP 4.2.2

Hey guys,
So I really want to get an AOSP rom but seems whenever i go to one i have problems. I tried LiquidSmooth R2 last night and had problems(LED light not working for SMS).
What would you recommend? I keep seeing CM10.1 but theres so many unofficial builds that i dont know which to go with. I just want stability which i know is a big thing ha. Any suggestions?

It honestly depends on what you want in a ROM as what works for me won't be good for you. Right now am running the Avatar ROM which is CM 10.1 with MIUI themes which is stable for me but like all ROMs you might not have the same experience.

Stable
Official cyanogenmods are usually stable. You can look on their site to find their downloads if you're confused by the unofficia; vs official. Other than that as was previously stated, test out the rom (I usually give the rom a week to see what issues may be present) and use that to determine features you may like. If you want recommendations on roms I would say AOSPA (Paranoid Android), AOKP, Cyanogenmod, carbon rom, rootbox, liquidsmooth(but you already used that), Blackbean(You can try 7, but 8 is on the way), and that's pretty much it, also don't completely turn away from unofficial builds yet. Read the forums and find out about them a little. I've been running an unofficial rootbox with cherrypicks for the last two weeks and it is rock solid for example. Hopefully this helps you out with you decision. Have fun and happy flashing

I haven't tried Paranoid. I can say that Slimbeans is very stable, fast and beautifully constructed. You really won't find any problems that don't exist in the 4.22 ROMs, as a whole.

Best set up?

Hello, I ordered the blaze and should be getting it sometime this week. And I would like to know what's the best 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 ROM with stability and performance along with nice features. Also what mods and what kernel?
So happy to be joining this community!

4.2 and 4.3 development is just getting underway. They run very smooth, it just that some things are still broken, like the camera, bln, and few little things. There are workarounds in the specific threads. Im currently running slimbean 4.3. Beanstalk 4.3 is killer too.

Should I try all star liquid smooth?

Don't start threads like these. There are not any "best" ROMs out there. It all leads to your opinion. Try them all out! And you came in the right time as we got 4.3! Welcome to the community!

I see in the CM10 thread this list of bugs:
Known Bugs:
Screen of Death: This is a CM10 bug, many other devices are afflicted, not just the blaze. Many people are working hard to fix this.
UI action sounds may not work at first. Adjust the volume with the volume buttons, the sounds will then work fine. This is a known CM10 bug
BLN is wonky. Working on getting us merged with the stable version native to CM10.
Fixed 20121103+ : WiFi generates a random MAC address with each boot.
Camera: Flash can't be disabled
Camera: Storage location cannot be changed. This isn't really a bug, however if the interest is great enough, I might try and figure out a way to change the system default storage location.
Other things maybe? Discuss in the thread...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Are all of these bugs still present in the latest builds?

The latest nightly is 99.8% stable. Occasionally occasional people have occasional problems once in a while. Nothing is 100% usually. I've been running it for many months now. Just user ICS camera from the market and set it to use your sd card for saving pics.

I've since moved on from CM10. Not that it wasn't superb, but I went flash happy
I'm currently running Slimbean 4.3 20130905, and I've gotta say its pretty sweet. Its in beta stages so there will be a few bugs, but honestly the only ones I've come across so far is the camera crashes, the torch crashes, and setting performance tweaks cause a reboot. Other than that its buttery smooth. I HIGHLY recommend it, sir. Its a lightweight build for superior performance, and it delivers through and through. Also flash with the minimal gapps build to keep performance nice and creamy. Slimbeam + minimal gapps = 140mgb. Smaller than your average ROM.
I would never steer a fellow android enthusiast in the wrong direction
Flash it and see. You won't be disappointed. But hey, even if you are, just flash another one!!

To be perfectly honest Liquid Smooth gave me some trouble. Even after doing a completely fresh flash it wasn't stable in the least.
That being said it never hurts to give it a shot. I saw somewhere a kernel you could flash possibly fixing any issues you may have with it. Unfortunately it didn't work for me
Slimbean, CM and beanstalk, in my opinion, are where you'll find ultimate performance and creaminess

Not really, the only thing that still exists is the stock camera doesn't have the option to save to the external SD card. Easily fixable by using a camera from the market, like 'ICS camera'.

Pac Man opinions

Hi all I have been running Liquid Smooth happily for awhile now and it is very smooth,everything works fine all the time and plenty of custom options as well as Halo,which I really like.
Thinking about making the leap to Pac Man,seduced by the "Have it all" claims.Just looking for some advice and feedback from folks who have used it.
Better to run the 4.2 stable?
What are the 4.3 nightly advantages?
If you are happy with this ROM why?
Any bugs to be aware of?
I see folks posting about mms not working.
Thanks in advance.

Yes 4.3. 20131004 nightly was great. Has been on 20131009 release without problems.
I've only had problems when I under volt too aggressively with the custom kernels. But that's expected.
