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.

hello guys
i have been running CM9 RC0 (cm-9.0.0-RC0-crespo-signed.no.v5) on my GSM Nexus S OCed to 1.2GHz (ondemand governor)
and now i found out that they have released RC1 and so i downloaded it to give it a try.
but before doing so i have some questions in mind regarding RC1
that if it is worth flashing instead of CM9 RC0?
what are the possible added features of settings that are of more benefit than the previous version ?
please help me as i am just a rookie in these rom flashing and Overclocking
Just thinking that new version always worth to flash otherwise why do they release it? Working on ROM is not something easy

It's newer cm code compiled into a Nightly release. Some nightlies are more stable than others, read the changelogs and bug for nightlies and you'll have an idea of what is fixed in a release and what is broken by an update.

ok great so does it mean that it should be more faster than the Rc0 or the nightly builds ? because CyanogenMod is MEANT to be a PERFORMANCE ROM so there must be some more speedy update to it in simple words right ?
Let me try this again, Nightlies are just the latest code compiled into a Rom, there's no guarantee you'll see any difference between one nightly or another so you have to read the changelog to see what code was changed.

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 Everyone
why is the htc Saga not getting any Cm official nightlies ? 9 or 10?
We got official ics( via ruu) and kernel sources?

Because to have official support it has to be out of Alpha/Beta stage. In other words it has to be completely stable on hardware level (kernel and proprietary binaries) before it can be included in the main repo and build with only CM not device changes. CM devs will not bother to fix device stuff, only OS related. So if you are reading the CM10 threads you will know that we are far from that still. It may be working but not for all (example the hitachi panel users). Until this is fixed - no official support.

thanks for the explanation dude
appreciate it. now i understand
i always thought the cm guys do the work them selves to get everythign working correctly.guess i was wrong
so our devs have to get it stable first.then they add it
Is there any benefit for Verizon s3 owners to run cm9 over cm10 until an official jellybean rom is released, or have the leaked roms provided enough for code for the Verizon version of cm10 to no longer be a port from another carrier's rom?
I'm having maps flickering issues that are on the official cm10 bugs list, but I need something that works in the meantime.
Thanks!

Bumping the thread a bit. Nobody has any input? Also, if I'm phrasing something incorrectly please let me know. Thanks!
As far as I'm aware, there was no CM9 release for the Verizon SIII.

As previously stated there was no official CM 9 release for the Verizon Galaxy S3 because at the time when CM 9 was still current our phone still had a locked bootloader, however there was an unofficial CM 9 using kexec to circumvent the locked bootloader at the time (But that is very outdated now and shouldn't be used). I recommend you try the latest CM 10 nightly that fixed a lot of bugs since the CM 10 Stable release. If you really need something absolutely 100% stable I would recommend running the stock ICS Touchwiz ROM with root.

Sounds great. Thanks for the info!
Hi,
I was just wondering if CM 10.1 is stable. I know its under the nightly section, but I am just wondering. I use this phone as my daily driver so if there are minor bugs, please list them. I am currently running CM10 right now and its perfect. Thanks
U can always do nandroid and see it for yourself. There is only one snapshot build (M1) which CM team consider to be stable(ish), other ones are nightlies. Nightlies aren't intended to be daily drivers.
Personally, i find CM 10.1 to be pretty laggy at the moment and differences between 10 are not so dramatic to bear with the instability.

For me is CM10.1 perfectly stable. I run latest nightly, update my Nexus almost everyday I never tried CM10, so maybe it's better.
