There are always things that could be buggy in a nightly. But I think your question is more along the lines of, "is there anything in this that is going to make my phone stop working for certain key things?" It should be plenty stable. But honestly if they knew it was completely stable, they wouldn't consider it a nightly. I have been using it without any trouble.
I would say do a nandroid of your current stuff, and flash away. You will quickly find out within a few days if there is anything you can't live with.

I recently switched to cm12 nightly.. And i am happy doing so.. Its much stable and battery backup has been optimised...

Anyone want to test a CM 7 kanged build I just made?

I just need someone to test this quick. It's based of the CM 7 source. Nothing has been changed or modified. I just compiled it. I will be doing daily builds everyday
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZEWGSEAA
Alt link: http://db.tt/9u9SL1E
Just let me know if it boots and runs ok. It should though
If I get confirmation it works I'm posting a thread under dev that I will update everyday

Why bother posting it in developer section if it's the same as the nightly except for the fact that you are compiling it yourself?

because when I mentioned I was doing builds for myself a bunch of people asked me to share them. That's why.. And before I even thought about posting them I asked Chris if it would be ok.

plus there is no nightly tonight so far so it gives crack flashers something to flash I dont think there were any device specific commits since last build but there have been GB base commits
Just flashed and booted OK.

[Q] Do I have to uninstall the old kernel?

Do I have to somehow uninstall the old kernel before installing a new one?

No, just download the kernel of your choice>put on your sd card>boot into CWM> wipe cache and dalvik cache>then flash your new kernel>reboot>enjoy.

Glad to see you followed my advice.

sort of. If there is anything from the old one that the new one doesn't overwrite it will remain. Just in case I reinstall my base rom when changing from one custom kernel to another

I ended up just clearing the cache and dalvik cache, then installing it.
New kernel won't boot
Hi, I just rooted my phone w/the latest CM (7.1.0.1) and I tried to install a new kernel using the above steps, and every one I try gives me the kernel boot screen, and then gets stuck at a blank screen. It lights up when I touch the screen, but nothing else.
Thankfully I did a NANDROID backup, got back into cm. But still can't figure out what's wrong.
BTW, CM7 running 2.3.7. Have also tried data wipe of OS, w/reinstall of CM, then flashed kernel, but still no luck. Always get stuck at blank screen after kernel boot.
also, I tried both morfic's Trinity kernel (both of them) and faux, can't seem to get anything different.
Suggestions?

Make sure the kernel you are using is made for CM7 roms. There are kernels that made to work on Froyo, Gingerbread, CM7, and MIUI.

Make sure the Faux you use is made for CM7. There are 2 different kernels.

Uh, guys, you're missing one thing. He's way back on the stable release. I found this out the same way a while back. The Kernels are based of a newer source than the ROM he's running and thus incompatible.
OP: grab Titanium back up and My Backup Root. Use titanium to back up your apps and accompanying data, for safety's sake don't use it to back up system data at this point, since there's going to be a good number of differences between your current ROM and the one I'm going to PM you. Use My backup Root to back up contacts, messages, et al.
^Why did you just PM me some shady link? My problem has been solved and it wasn't anything close to your 'solution'.

I used the stable build on the cm site, which lists on my phone as CM7.1.0.1-G2x. The Kernel Version says it's 2.6.32.45-cyanogenmod. The faux kernel also found on xda-dev forum for the g2x seems to be for cm7 gb, and in any case I tried both that I found, uv and sv. Still stuck.
Any help would be nice. Oh, and in case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm a n00b.

I deleted it already. It's just the name of the link was sketchy and his "solution" to my question wasn't even what my question was addressing. So it seemed like a generic spam message if you know what I mean.

Come on OP, maybe you can at least remember some tiny detail of the link I posted. As I stated before: Euroskank nightlies. Google it, ask around about it. For everyone: As the quoted member points out, the OP has how many posts and joined when? Also, what has he posted? The title of this thread is nonsensical, obviously he doesn't know what a kernel is or he wouldn't be asking about how to "uninstall" one.
Now, I post what and where, say what, and speak how?
Period.
Oh, and OP, what was your magical "fix" that you say worked but only state that "it" worked? Others may (and do) want to know.

Those kernels are only compatible with nightly 173ish plus. Get off the stable build and grab a nightly, Hellfire Phoenix, or any other newer cm7 based rom. The euroskank nightlys are nice

Why you mad? First of all my post isn't even asking for a "fix". And you can see I'm a new member so why would I trust a link that has the phrase "euroskank" in it? How am I supposed to know that's a trusted link if I'm new?

[ROM] Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 for Samsung Epic 4G

CM7.2.0: Android 2.3.7 for the Samsung Epic 4g
Release Notes​
CM7 is still alive and kicking!
Please note: This is CM7.2, newer than the nightly builds (Which stopped at 45).
Aug 06 - 7.2.0 Released!
QBKing77 was kind enough to produce a couple of videos about Epic's CM7
Please note that these were done before WiMAX was released.
Download Links, Installation Instructions, and more!
Check the CM7 Status Page on the CM Blog for downloads! (Or the Get.cm link directly)
HOW TO REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS?
Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get me the full output.
Pastebin links preferred
Thanks to the community, and the developers!
Without them, this would not have been possible!
This rom is a result of many tiring hours from Decad3nce, noobnl, jt1134, Uberpinguin, nubecoder, mkasick, nullghost, dameon78, wispofattes, DRockstar, and many many other contributors.
Latest testing build

For you to test battery i'd completely charge for an hour past 100% and while off and turn on and drain it however and till it actually dies out or very close to it. then re charge back up to 100% again and next cycle should be plenty better, im sure you know that, but just saying.
In attachments is from Nightly 45 1st pic is with airplane mode for about 5 hours or so, forgot to take pic of other screen that day

never were in the RC0 stage we were never in alpha nor beta kind of confusing i know? but even though it was pretty much stable it wasn't 99-100% stable so no RC was ever released to the best of my knowledge of that case

I'm not going to argue about what version it was, but I'm just curious. That's all.
Technically, 7.2.0-RC0 was the full Cyanogenmod version. This is the beta 1 for the Epic, with CM7.2.0-RC1, I think.
So yes, its slightly confusing

I remember having so much trouble using an alternative kernel. I had to do this.
Flash cm9, gapps, samurai kernel. Boot.
Go back into cwm flash cm9 and kernel. Boot
Then one more time I went back into cwm and flashed the gapps.
Then I could install apps and everything would work . Now I remember how much a pain in arse this ROM was with another kernel.

I think that was him having to hit the stop sign before learning to stop lol. What I mean is, he forgot to flash gapps the first 2 times and now he knows that he needs to flash the gapps after the rom in order for everything to work right lol

Quick Update On Battery!
Running On Samurai Tanto @ 100/1000 VR | Conservative w/UV. About medium brightness, no airplane mode probably would give me another hour or two on overall battery life and and probably another hour for screen on time.
I thought I could do much better but I guess if you drag it out with various usage all day it would last longer I got another screenie from 2 days ago I believe and got 4 Hours of screen on time but around a day for overall battery life and that was on Nightly 45 though

[UNOFFICAL] [CM11] [4.4] d2kat

Welcome to d2kat!
these will be weekly builds of cm11 by tvall and myself.
there isnt much to be said about these builds execpt for what is broken on CM will be broken here.
any ROM/KitKat related questions can be asked in the Q&A here:
ROM:https://mega.co.nz/#!wBRyVQQZ!IYvnu2KwJihG86115meP8EvaIQVcgoRyMKvtuMMcvHU
Gapps:http://www.mediafire.com/download/a84xzwn0w5lplhz/pa_gapps-modular-full-4.4-20131111-signed.zip
Thanks:
 @tvall: builds
 @LeslieAnn: build server
Cyanogenmod: everything
apparently we are starting again. taking post #2
so, this thread is apparently just for my builds. since i already made it clear that i am not committed to actively working on the d2vzw, I'm assuming its to force the other devs into making their own threads for their roms.
quick faq:
I will probably keep building these for a while to keep people satisfied until cm releases official nightlies. no promises though
my builds will be given to cammykool, untested for him to post. I do not own a d2vzw, and cannot afford to go buy one. buy me one, and I'll be able to test and fix things.
my builds will almost always be only cm code, what they have pushed to github and fixes waiting to be merged. I don't feel like fixing bugs myself. the devs that actually own this device can do that, and I'll merge it into my builds as needed.
cammy wants me to push out new builds on a weekly basis. i have no idea why he likes my builds so much, but i can handle weekly or more frequent experimental untested builds
Re-subscribed Thank you, you guys are awesome!!!

SD card was also still broken for me (I'm thinking it might just be my SD card at this point, I'm gonna try out another one), but everything else seemed to work fine.
I thought in the other thread I saw something about CM11 not flashing with TWRP... confirm/deny with this build?
This rom really needed this fresh new start Also, what is different from this build in the op and the 2013-11-13-unofficial by sspencer? Anything fixed in it that isnt in the sspencer build? Thanks
Gonna need a lot more clarity in the OP or else this thread will be exactly the same as the last one. I'll start by adding instructions:
THESE BUILDS ARE NOT 100% OPERATIONAL.
-They boot, I flashed it last night and everything worked for me (front camera, SD card, WiFi..etc) browser FC'd on me once but that might have been something else.
-You will probably get 2 galleries, not sure why or which one to disable, I didn't get that far.
Flash instructions:
-YOU MUST USE CWM, TWRP IS BROKEN
-Factory reset
-Wipe Dalvik / Cache
-Wipe system
-Wipe Data
-Flash ROM
-Boot up, let it sit for a minute
-Reboot recovery and flash the GAPPs in OP
-Reboot and sign in
-Profit.
These were pretty much the instructions last night, and the ones I followed and everything worked fine for me.

I literally just flashed back to 4.3.1 but I ran this build for the past 3 days including the version from yesterday and today. It is seriously close to being able to be used as a DD. TVall, it seems like you are developing this until CM releases so I thought I'd say what wasn't working for me. I did not have the SD card problem but i know many do. I did have these things not working...
1. Certain apps would not reinstall from the Play Store. When I tried it said USB Storage not found
2. When launching Google+ it says network not found retry. I can view Facebook and other apps that have to get on network just fine.
3. Unable to connect to XDA using tapatalk, although I'm not sure that one is rom related as I am now back on 4.3.1 and it is still hit or miss.
4. Overall seems kinda sluggish and i'm sure that will get ironed out as the rom gets more polished. I don't necessarily mean the OS is sluggish but apps are and opening apps takes a little longer
I will probably flash back later or tomorrow as I already miss the launcher but nothing too serious here for me. Like I said it is extremely close to DD status right now and I really liked the ROM and appreciate all of your hard work.
All in all seemed OK expect WiFi and SD card issue, that's the only things I noticed. And (beepea206) yes that is true about the not flashing it with TWRP.

issue was fixed in twrp 2.6.3.1 or 2.6.3.2, i don't remember. twrp 2.6.3.3 fixed bugs in .1.
at the time of this post, i believe 2.6.3.0 is the most recent build officially available for the d2vzw. this is why i prefer the nexus line

this build is made blindly by me. sspencer actually owns a d2vzw and can test and fix things. all i do is build and upload. his builds will be mostly working usually. mine will be just cm and fixes they make.
Download link not working
The download link for the ROM reads this when clicked:
"The file you are trying to download is no longer available.
This could be due to the following reasons:
The file has been removed because of a ToS/AUP violation.
Invalid URL - the link you are trying to access does not exist
The file has been deleted by the user."
I'm running the 4.4 from the older post before this one and would really like to update considering the front camera currently doesn't work on my ROM and may fix a few things. I've the link on multiple browsers and even installed the mega extension and it still doesn't work. Could you reupload?

like this rom
i like this rom only had a few problems but after a reboot seams to be working good again
I have the weirdest thing happening. I'm on stable 7 and have been for quite a while. It's worked perfectly until a couple days ago and now I can't send text messages out. I think I can receive OK. Just can't send out. I've even tried doing a clean install of this and other ROMs with same result. It gets more odd... After toying with it I can send only one text out. Just one to any person. But I can't send another unless I reboot or I think wait a few hours. Upon reboot I again can send only one text message out. And so on. I have no clue what could be happening. Any ideas?

I had that problem when I was using certain builds. I had to drop modem back to BMB1. After that I could send with no issue. I, too could only send one text at a time.

What kernel and baseband is recommended to use with this Rom? I haven't used my s3 in awhile and just want to make sure I get it right... Right now I'm on cleanrom 4.5 which is 4.1.1 and on baseband vrblk3.. I did install the latest twrp already.. Thank you in advance and sorry if this was asked and answered already

Stock kernel and VRBMF1 firmware is the bassline recommendation. TWRP 2.7 at least, newest TWRP 2.8 works fine as well.

Thank you much[emoji2]
I was able to locate the firmware and had a tough time finding the stock kernel as many links for many things are no longer good... I downloaded what I thought was the "stock kernel v2" however when I try to flash after flashing the firmware in twrp I get a failed message "unable to open zip file".. Any thoughts, thank you in adv. Have twrp 2.8.0.1 btw and flashed MF1 firmware....

Noooooo haha stock kernel as in the kernel built-in the rom. All you need to flash is SlimKat and gapps then boot.

That's my bad on the ambiguity! Haha glad you've got it all set up. Just to clarify, every rom comes with a boot.img which is what becomes the kernel. Custom kernels are slightly different.

I just really appreciate all you and other devs do for the community [emoji106] ?!!! Phone is running champ doe!!! Thanks again! And thanks for clearing that up[emoji2]
GPS issue with latest nightly
Just an FYI, I tried the latest nightly and got zero GPS fix, even with a clean flash. I went back to the latest stable build (also a clean flash) and everything's cool with that, except for my inability to view pics within Gmail. :/
Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot
Hi, I just loaded up Slimkat 4.4.4 with the stock kernel on my Verizon Galaxy S3. I used to use the Wifi Tether TrevE Mod with my previous version and that worked, however, this does not appear to work in this rom. I noticed there was a built in Portable Wi-Fi hotspot, which does work perfectly. I would like to use this but am just concerned that somehow VZ would know I am tethering and I would incur additional charges. Do I have anything to worry about or am I just being paranoid?
Thank you for a GREAT product, it's a spectacular rom.

Google Play Services not Installed
Just did a dirty flash of 9 stable over 7 stable flashed the latest gapps, and now the Google play store does not work and a bunch of apps are requesting the install of Google Play Services.
Any tips?

You could try clearing data for the Play Store. I always encourage a clean flash (wipe data and system) before each new release.

Any updates on that "further notice"?
