Which one is better. Can make up my mind. Happy Easter.
Go for nightly 54. Haven't used my phone much...92% and about 6.5hrs on battery life.
Been riding the Stable for a while. The talk following the immediate nightlies thereafter put me on hold, figure I'll wait it out until drastic changes / additions start happening.
Seems like said issues have been addressed and / or a fix is available. Stable has been running great for me, using Tiamat, and haven't really had a reason to move on.
So long as you avoid the 'bad ones' you should be good.
do you not know the difference, or are you asking what are the benifits of the newest nightly over stable? if so, here's the changelog. http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=supersonic . happy easter

although there are a few bugs you can find a few answers in my siggy and the rest in the xda threads.
Use Nightly 54
I have been loving Nightly 54 with gps-test.zip to fix Google Maps. Everything has been running smoother than Stable, good luck!
stable 7.0.1 is out.

what is the difference between nightly and stable??

You basically just said it.
Nightly- not stable and each one builds upon the other and fixes bugs
Stable- completely working, bugs fixed, no problems besides user error

Interestingly, with CM7, the nighties are themselves, very very capable and remarkably stable. Definitely stable enough to be most people's daily driver.
I run nightlues all the time and they are very stable. Much better than rls1 ever was. A full stable should be coming soon though.

Like the people above me said, Nightlies are compiled every night (usually) and aren't considered by Team Douche to be "stable." Oh, and if you file a bug report about something in a Nightly, expect to be burned at the stake.
RC's are a tad more stable than Nightlies (typically) and while they don't include the latest-and-greatest features all the time (ie, RC1 is now outdated and doesn't have WiMAX or the battery percentage in the status bar), you can file bug reports about them and they'll usually get solved.
Stables are just what their name says: Stable. There's rarely any major bugs in them, and when bugs are discovered, a bug report can be filed, and assuming it's not an 1D10T error, gets fixed, and integrated into the next Nightly/RC/Stable, or they'll just make a .1 release (ie, 7.0.0 to 7.0.1 and so on).
Right now though, CM is in feature freeze, so all that's going into Nightlies right now are bugfixes (for example, the WiMAX code for EVO broke a bunch of other phones in weird ways, and the Nexus One has a "wonky" bug). We'll probably see RC2 in a week or two, and then 7.0.0 stable within a month.
Does anyone know what RC3 actually adds? I am currently running CM7 RC2 on my evo 4g and i am wandering if i should update to RC3 or wait for the final release.
As my evo was stolen today, I haven't flashed. But should include further tweaks and fixes and should have hdmi working on it for sure.
From what i see and have read the only change is the HDMI, other than that everything seems the same
I was blessed with this page the other day.

Seeing as how it fixes HDMI, will this break HDMwIn?

I've been running CM since RC1. It keeps getting smoother and smoother and my battery life generally increases. You don't need to do a full wipe, just clear your cache and dalvik, then flash RC3 on top of RC2. It won't be a huge change, but it'll likely run even smoother, methinks.

I just flash the RC's, I usually don't flash the nightlies. Going to RC3 I noticed the GPS seems to track better without doing the sense fix. Other than that, I haven't really noticed anything. I think it's still worth it to flash the new one though, I'm sure there's plenty of improvements that I just haven't noticed yet.
Ive been flashing nightlies since #14 I think. Each one is better than the last. RC3 is no different. It is just a step up from nightly 31 and runs exceptionally smooth. Personally, I'm not even running it though, I only ran it long enough for nightly 32 to drop....

So you flashed 32 for one commit?
swyped from my cyanogenized and gingerbreaded EVO
Good Morning, After I install rc3 do i then install cm_supersonic_full-32. In another words, is nightly 32 the first nightly after you install rc3?

You dont need to install RC3 before installing nightly 32 if thats what you want to use. You can just install nightly 32 over whatever CM7 version you are running now
but yes, nightly 32 is newer than RC3
Phone is Making Random Phone Calls
While at the mall with a friend, he told me that I was calling him. The crazy thing was my phone was in my car outside. The next day while at the dinner table, my phone starting ringing another one of my contacts without me even touching it.
Call this paranormal activity 4 but it has happened 2 more times since. Any thoughts? My sd card has been formatted and i did not install any of the apps found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976913
Currently have rc2 nightly 31 installed.
I would recommend doing a complete wipe, then reflash the rom.

I did exactly this and the market no longer works. You can download, but once an app starts to install the market fc's and doesn't install. Any ideas?

Didn't know that I needed to if I was just upgrading, but after this issue I did anyway and had no effect.
Really stupid question incoming:
Does CM7 on the Evo utilize Wifi-N?

Well normally you don't, but it was an option, so still random calls? I would suggest, as earlier, do a complete wipe, then re-flash the rom with gapps.
Weird. My phone paranormaly has sent texts to random people while running cm7... scary..

I have been working on fixing the bugs in cyanogenmod that cause the data issues when using BFS kernels.
The CM7 nightly build is here: http://www.multiupload.com/0Z3Z8M5FE7
and my v0.6 bfs kernel is here: http://www.multiupload.com/ZOAMV7NQBI
If nothing seems to be broken, feel free to review http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,9829 and http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,9734

I may work on flashing this this week, I'm on miui but missing me some cm7. Is this having the youtube and mms issues cm has?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
Loaded Saturday morning, been running fine. No data drops.MMS, YouTube, data anamation
arrows, compass works. Haven't tried any flash videos.
Running smarta** at 245/1113. Getting 2200 - 2500
on quadrant. (If that matters)
I think I finally fixed all of the possible data issues:
Updated cm7 nightly kang: http://www.multiupload.com/UI6MOP5OSD
which includes http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,9829 and http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#change,9850
That should cover every corner case where data could be lost due to the dnsproxyd cache (this was a bug in AOSP, so all AOSP roms will have this bug until the fix is applied).
I also have a test build for v0.7 of my kernel (which should fix zram enable issues): http://www.multiupload.com/WDSSQ85LJM I also rewrote my updater-script, so let me know if there are any issues (I've only tested on my cm7 kang build).
Working well for me so far. Using the 0.7 Kernel, CompCache up and running. No data loss issues so far today. I think all may be well
can i flash this over my current cm7 nightly?
Been running for a day now, haven't noticed any depreciated performance/battery.
haven't really followed your kernels, but have you addressed the low call volume issue that plagues the built in kernel?
if so, I'll jump on and start testing immediately.
Yes areoevan kernels have the vol. fixed.Been running them since the first one he released.
from the dates of the changes and the fact they've been merged, I assume all new nightlies have the new changes (minus the kernel part) correct?

133 and 134 nightlies have the changes incorporated.
ok, so. i flashed this. the is the best my compass has acted since i flashed CM7, the in call volume is perfect. I'm getting really good Quadrant scores(for whatever that is worth), data dropping in and out seems to be gone. It wouldn't connect to WiFi right away, but eventually did.
My question is; what is the difference between this kernel and the .06 cfs version?
Umm ok So that was weird... Delete please.
What's weird?

yea, that's weird.
i'm thinking of going with aokp, but it's kinda a "turn off" for me when it comes out with a weekly build and i feel the need to constantly check on the forums and flash to a new one
what's a good one that is just solid that doesn't require a new build update every week?
You can go Aokp because the last stable build is milestone #4 all the other builds that come out are just a nightly.

i understand but having nightly builds makes me feel like i need to constantly upgrade to the newest one
Just... don't update then? If your setup works well just leave it. You can always skip updates.
I'd go with Bamf Paradigm. Uniquely built AOSP rom, stable, and good battery life. Try it for yourself, you'll be amazed
And quality over quantity - no hyper change logs every 4 days, but if you're in for something different, jump in.
if that is such a problem then just flash AOKP Milestones... not AOKP Nightlies + Milestones.
Milestones are for people who don't want to keep updating. These milestones come 1-2 week.
Honestly, if updating a ROM / Kernel is a "turn off" because a developer is maintaining their ROM / kernel at a rate to improve your phone more and more and you don't want to stick with that maybe you should of stayed on stock ROM/kernel? Because this is like me hearing that people are complaining about a dev updating their ROM / kernel way too much.
When you rush through things and do not test enough, you end up missing issues, which ncreases the need to update the rom more frequently.
BAMF Paradigm does not release updates like mad because for every release, we have at least 3-4 testing releases to our beta testers to find and fix bugs. We do not like to consider our users the beta testers.
Are people flashing too much? I only update my kernel and have kept AOSP 8/21...everything is fine except for a camera blurriness on some shots. other than that I'm happy with it.
I personally just flash the latest AOKP build every night because there's always some cool new feature to play around with each release.

There is no such thing as too much flashing (especially after you've made an IMEI backup).
You're missing out on new features and bugfixes. If you don't care about new features and bugfixes (and reporting them) then you shouldn't have flashed a nightly in the first place. Stay on stock or wait for a stable release.
theres alot of performance and stability fixes in every build that improve battery life and make your phone faster. also only the latest nightly is officially supported so if you have any problems they can't really help you if your not on the latest build
Or you can just do a monthly build which they deem more stable. Thats what I'm using and havent seen any real problems.
