I am not new to custom roms. But I don't understand and always avoid using "nightly" builds. I try to get "stable" roms or the newest builds of roms that say neither. I am afraid of tons of bugs compared to other roms. Is that unfounded? What is a nightly vs other types of builds?
Thanks.
Edit: Is there someone who installs nightlies out there who could describe what your experiences have been with them? Compared to stable builds. Thanks.

Thanks. But that's not very clear, and certainly doesn't explain how it is regarding android roms.
Is there a better explanation? Or is there someone who installs nightlies out there who could describe what your experiences have been with them? Compared to stable builds. Thanks.

This question is relevant, read the answers: http://programmers.stackexchange.com/questions/56490/what-does-nightly-builds-mean
They may/may not be stable, but have the latest changes in them.
Stay away from nightlies unless you have the patience to deal with things not working & having to flash every now & then.
I used to use cyanogenmod7 nightlies versions on my olders phones. No issues at all, I thought it stable but may have a little issue or other.
Which nighly are you looking for?

If my definition if correct, it's one that is still being worked on. Not like a regular one with a few bugs. This is like a build before they would announce it a beta or release candidate.
Kinda like an underground build for only the advanced. And flash them at your own risk and be aware that they could brick your phone as they are not officially supported.

Wow! Okay, I guess my concerns weren't unfounded. I'll stay away from nightlies then. Thanks

Simple, a Nightly is a Rom that is worked and updated by a robot (not a real robot, a computer that acts with some intelligence to work) and I think that it's called nightly because in the past, devs use the computer of his daily use at night and the next morning a new Rom was ready to test wth

This is CM10. I don't want to explain it again but basically I will be merging my ColdBlooded Tweaks soon. I compiled from source and then made some modifications so some more things worked. Also, I am available to help people and fix issues where as the other cm10 is not as they are very VERY busy doing great work on other things/roms! Just try the rom and you will find out or read in the thread. I can't go very deep into now because I am busy doing many things but I'm sure you will figure it out.
nice work
Nice Work BiteBlaze.
I'm using your ROM as my daily driver and is awesome.
Was a little difficult to me to at the first because the phone don't boot, just hang out on the X boot image. I flash with TWRP first, and I think I didn't do full wipe out, don't remember.
After flashing the boot.img that come with the zip all went well
Some bugs that you maybe already know:
the incoming notification appear some glitch;
Also my battery life is short, 6 hours for the first boot. In "battery usage" I didn't notice any strange behaviour, my screen is consuming most of the time 60%. Maybe I have to calibrate my battery.
But in resume all works well.
Love Google Now Cards
Thanks

Your Welcome! It will only get better in the future
Ahhhhhhhh!!!! I've got a dilema, i'm quite fine with my actual rom Paranoid Android.... but I want to try yours so much !!
I do need a stable rom with a good battery life! So... if some people makes relevant comments to convince me to flash it i'll do it, héhéhé! :silly:
I was little skeptical at 1st because I'm running the other cm10 but this feels a lot better and you actually have a camera app. Awesome job. I noticed cm10 has theme engine will you be adding that feature to your ROM?

Yep. Next time I compile I will add the theme engine. Also, vote on the poll in my dev thread and tell me if I should make a lite version.

Is it ever possible that we can receive official support from the CM team once this is no longer alpha/beta (almost everything works)? What our devs do here is completely amazing and mind boggling, but it would always be more concrete if we get official support. I always wondered why we do not have CM support when our device is tied in first place with the One X (over GSiii!). Thanks for the amazing hard work getting this going!

Sorry, that question can't be answered. One thing I've learned from my time here is that all phones are NOT the same, what works on my S3 may or may not work on yours.
You'll have to make your own tests, get started flashing various ROMs and good luck!

I dont know if you are new or not so please dont think I mean to preach. But, when I am deciding what rom to use I read pages upon pages of the thread for that rom. I believe this is important so not only can I see what rom works like I want but, also prepares me for what to expect after flashing. Simply taking someones advice on which rom to flash will not always end with the best result.
That being said I am loving masta's cm10.1 unofficial.

I couldn't agree more.
Asking people for advice is probably bad because many stick with the first one they find work well.
Or they use what someone else says works best.
Roms work differently on everyone's phone so you must try for yourself.
Also people become very bias when they find a ROM they like.
Haha so it may not be the best for your needs.
Good luck and get flashing

Well, if you don't like spending your time to update your custom rom, then stick to the official rom came with your phone. Developers are working hard to give us the best possible roms. And all these for FREE. I might misunderstand your comment but if you don't like to spend time updating your rom that is your problem mate. Not everyone provides OTA updates and if you don't like or disagree with this then you shouldn't use custom roms. Don't get me wrong mate, but I think your comment sounds a bit offensive...
Viper has ota updates.

Not many ROMs use that anymore, we have better ways of OTA now, Viper, DarkSense and Elegancia all use HTC Sense native OTA from settings > software updates

Liquid Smooth 4.2.2 v2.8 was a daily driver with nearly zero faults (ir blaster wasn't working, but I didn't try any other kernels) on S4.
LS 4.4.2 was fairly buggy a month ago or so, just like any other 4.4.2 aosp rom (since most of them are based on CM anyway.)
Did they ever get to squash all of the bugs in the LS 4.4.2?

I'm testing a build from a few days ago and it's really solid. Latest build is fully functional minus the camera, which I believe isn't because of an issue, but because data took priority over camera as is to be expected, and is being addressed as we speak.
I can assure you they're hard at work constantly, but I'm not at liberty to provide an ETA for an initial stable build, so please don't ask. All I can say is that progress is faster than I anticipated, and AOSP, let alone LS is amazing on this device. Anything else, I'll say what I can so they can focus on developing further.
Has anyone tested the 4/16 Nightly?
EDIT: I tried to flash with TWRP 2.7.0.2 and get a Updater Script error, is it only working on CWM?

MIUI v6 is still in its infancy stages and is still being worked on. When its ready, it'll be available.
As what others have said, we have a difficult time understanding what you want. Usually on XDA, you can't request someone to port a particular ROM, especially when those ROMs are already existent on the N5.

They're not outdated though? Cm nightlies are being released every night. A port is when one particular subject doesn't exist but exists for another device (or whatever it may be) to have it for your device.
A port isn't needed because it exists already.
Cm nightlies are released every night.
No one uses a bare bone aosp build. All roms use aosp as a base regardless.
Miui is relatively new and is still in beta.

I think he's trying to say that he found a rom that he likes that is being built for a different device. He needs a guide to help him take that rom and port it to the nexus 5 so he can use it.
His example is MIUIv6, it's not developed specifically for this device so he'd like to try to port it using an updated 'How-to' porting guide.
