[Q] Questions about CyanogenMod - HTC Pico (Explorer)

I Rooted my pico 2 days ago, yesterday i put jaggyrom 4 and now im starting to get a general ideia on thing. Since CyanogenMod is the most recent version of android why are there so many builds 7 9 10 what does that mean and witch is the most stable/relaiable less buggy?
Am I going over my head and should just go with my current ROM or just go for a icecreamsandwich one?
Thx in advance

Builds are like this..... Build 1 is the first one, and so on, normally latest builds are with less bugs,as simple as that. About what to flash..... it's up to you, check out at least last 4 pages of whichever rom you choose and you'll get what's wrong with it(if there is something) and that's it.
If you are asking about between cm9(there are 11builds of it) and cm 10, that's different. Cm9 is ics, and cm10 is jb, and so on.

thats whats wrong to much to choose from. Can someone indicate 1 or 2 roms i should try

Well that's a good thing you can choose something from an index thread(it's in dev section),also you can check this out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37324117
The choice is good thing, you can choose what's better for you.

Actually the ROMs are ported from sources by devs. Mostly they are
not official. That's because the CyanogenMod (please dont ask me what is that) team doesn't likes to spend time on phones like HTC Explorer. I don't know why so better not asking me. So as they are unofficial, they are not prefect and stable. They've got bugs and new builds are made to remove those bugs and make all the thing work. CM9(ICS) Build #11 and CM10(JB) Beta #3 are fine for you. Almost no bugs. Find the links yourself I'm too lazy to do that.
Please hit 'Thanks' for this detailed info.

CM 10.1 Issues
I was trying CM 10.1 #alpha 3. Robotic sound is heard by person on other side on call.
Also USB debugging not working. Anybody facing the same?

Why don't you try it at the specific rom section? Guess you can get there better results! AFAIK CM has an own homepage. Try it out. I'm not allowed to post URL-Links
I am very excited about CM9 and can't wait for a stable version of the rom. I'm guessing it won't be too long now until it is here.
CM9 has a own thread i think. It's still in development. A great System don't fall from the sky...
Im running the still beta on my desire from the desire forum here at xda and its the best android experience ive had so far. Never has my phone been this smooth and fast. And it seems pretty stable already too. So the future looks bright indeed.

Yes, cyanogenmod has their own website, but for a while now they haven't posted any updates on a stable build being released. You can find the beta if you do a google search though.
@appadict, you have not mentioned your handset model.

One really has to wonder why. GB is old news. Why put developer's time and energy into updating something no one cares about? Focus on CM9!

Maybe because some phone supported by CM7 might not get ICS.
Good news for the nightlies.

This phone can run CM9 w/ no problems. Feb has proven that to us. It's going to go to a 4.0 Source code drop of this phone, or the DHD to get it before we see a stable build for it.
This is pretty exciting news imo. Any indication the CM team hasn't forgotten about our device, the better. I am curious about getting into the nightly routine but I have really liked using TDJs KANG when I use CM. Mostly because I almost always get better battery life on his kernels.
On that note, does anyone know where to download the Darkside X kernel he packaged with the 7.2 KANG? The kernel thread he links to only has 12 and 12.5. I can't find it in the my touch forums for the life of me. The only similarly named thing is in his new Samsung device forums but it clearly states in that thread that he compiled it from Samsung code so that can't be the same one he bundled with our KANG can it?
I supposed a more experienced user or amateur dev can extract the kernel from the KANG and make a flashable version so I can use it with the nightlies; but I would never ask for such a thing.........

I think they didn't want to just throw away CM 7.2 before jumping into CM 9. Plus there are certain things that don't work, such as the camera, that I don't think the CM team would push out a build without things like that working at all. I doubt we'll see a stable release before HTC drops any ICS source code.

Nope, nothing resembling a kernel named Darkside X for glacier. Doesn't seem like anything on there was updated in the past 2 months though.
There are 3 possibilities I see as to an explanation.
1 - the kernel is 12.5 with almost nothing different. Enough to warrant a different version title but not enough to establish hosting it as it's own new thing.
2 - it's the Samsung kernel and it's compatible with the mytouch (doesn't seem likely but his kernels have magically been cross-compatible before [g2] so who knows).
3 - it's a current version but mislabeled. That seems so unlikely from what I know of this dev that I won't even entertain such an idea.
I haven't noticed a world of a difference from this "darkside x" kernel versus the kind of performance I got on the 12.5 so I will just pretend the darkside x is some anomaly and be more than happy with using 12.5.
CM9 is way to far from a lot of devices, only devices getting official nightlys are the nexus phones (crespo, toro and the new galaxy nexus ) thats why they are developing cm7, cyanogenmod needs to re-write all the code becuse google makes a lot of changes in ICS

[Q] Roms and flashing

So I have a few questions. I guess you can call me a novice at this. I have flashed Roms before just put like 4 on my phone and nandroid back up each one to test later.
My question is what does flashing Radios and Kernels do?
I flashed a radio on my inspire once and messed it up.
Also I need some help on flashing CM10 or jellybean ROMS. I wanna try jelly bean and cm 10 out but know nothing about gapps and I don't want a ROM I will have to update weekly. Will I have to with those roms?

You only flash daily to stay on the bleeding edge. Besides, a few days ago CM added an updater which you can tell it how often you want to be notified about an "update". (Weekly, monthly, only stable builds, etc..)
Gapps = Google's proprietary apps like Play Store, Gmail, etc. Can't legally put those into CM due to legal reasons. If you Google "jb gapps", I'm positive you will find what you are looking for .

I've seen good words about ParanoidAndroid. Is that one you would recommend?
And I know I've seen you on some Rom forums that you've developed is that right? I can't remember which ones

We can't really give our opinions on the rom because different people will always think different things, as far as my say goes it is an impressive piece of work.

I'm running beanstown build 20 on my Note 2 and i love it!
I wanted stock android with some of the features that touchwiz offer. Very well put together ROM.
thanks for all answer ,im using stock rom right now :laugh: please give thanks to my post please :victory:
Jellybam
If you have one of it's many supported devices, I highly reccomend Jellybam. Jellybam has many features from many ROMs, and is not disimiliar to PAC-Rom, but I find many more options to customize, like custom notification background, and even custom halo color etc.
Overall, for my P3110, the ROM is quite fast, even without over clock, and the Deva update it quite frequently, plus these updates are stable and most of the time quite major and useful

Just recently picked up the Carbon rom and loving it! I use them for the customization and the fact that they boost performance and battery life
The phone I own is a first gen LG Optimus V. The ROM I use now is MiRaGe CM7.2 ROM. The reasons I rooted and flashed was to get better performance, over clocking, USB Tethering, removel of all bloat ware and useless apps, and to be able to make Nandroid backups of my installed ROM, apps, and settings. Before I did all this, I ran stock Froyo 2.2.1 and was plagued with all sorts of problems the LG Optimus phones were known for. And I was 100% o.k. with voiding my warranty too.:good::laugh:

My old HTC Desire used Cyanogen Mod, my current HTC One X and S3 are using Stock Roms still.
My tablet at the moment using Ubuntu Touch, might go for another rom as the Ubuntu Touch is missing some key features I want in the tablet right now as it is a Dev release. Will hopefully go back to Ubuntu Touch in a later release when those features are there.

[Q]Confused between various KitKat ROMs ! Need help......

Hey guys, I need some help regarding various KitKat Roms. I used to keep myself updated with xda an year back, but now as its my 12th going on, I couldn't do so, and I don't even have enough time to read those 1000s of posts!:banghead:
So plz help me differentiate b/w mainly these two roms-
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572199
And
2) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2589303
Below are my queries--
1) Which of them is more stable for daily use?
2) I read that speaker phone isn't working. That means the normal mode(when we pickup call) or when we switch it to loudspeaker?
3) In the 1st thread posted above, there are 3 builds- Jenkins build, OMINI Rom, and a build by hephappy. What's main diff. Between them??
Any help is very appreciated!
Also, please don't post posts like -- "Flash this its awesome!!"
Or,
"I use this, it'll blow your mind"
Suggestions from developers are more recommended

I use the one from mukulsoni as daily Driver and am totally ok with it, I chose is as the other one still sais that it's early experimental. If you use the sweetnsour Kernel and the newest Version (v5) you should be happy.I don't realy see any bigger troubles so I'd suggest you install it and see for yourself, as flashing doesn't take to long and before installing to much, you just check if the main Functions suit your needs

Talking when you pick up is fine just the switching to loudspeaker is supposed to not work. I never use loudspeaker in calls so I can't tell you if it's true but normal calling works

Jenkins build is original cm 11 build
Omni rom is different rom its based on omni sources its still in very early stage
so dont use them
Hephappy build is far old one
its just a preview version of kitkat
so dont use this one
IF u wanna use daily use jenkins cm 11 build
if u r intrested to try new rom
try omni
There's basically no difference between those two ROMs. Almost the same.
Both ROMs are pretty stable except battery drain and Bluetooth issue with some phones. And for SD-EXT, only link2sd works at the moment.
Yea. You cam talk normally by picking up the phone but won't hear anything in loudspeaker mode.
Jenkins is a kind of build server and Jenkins build are the builds built by it. You can set its source from Github and downloads from androidarmv6's jenkins.
Omni ROM is a kind of with many added features other than stock android or CyanogenMod. Its not much stable as of now. You can get experimental builds from here and submission tests here
Builds by Hephappy are the ones which Hephappy (a great developer) built. They were the first ones to have workinh KitKat. But not suitable for daily use. You can find them here (KitKat builds). Hephappy's folder (all builds)
Every build except the Omni ROM is pretty stable to use as daily driver. Omni to become stable soon :good:
Hope this helped you
