which one is better? AOKP or Quarx? - Defy General

I want to know AOKP or Quarx is better on 4.1?
I know Quarx solved data connection bug but don't know whether AOKP also don't have such bugs.
Also, seems that not native tethering is workable since CM9.

AOKP is based on Quarx Roms
All Bugs Quarx has are also in AOKP.
Some People say AOKP is faster but i would say theyre both the same

AOKP is built from Source. Some bugs can be the same, but not ALL the same.
-- TOPIC --
I preffer AOKP. It seens faster to me.
If you don't need JB, you can try Salad Bar or WIUI or JIUI, those are great ROMs too.

btw, any bug list on AOKP now?
i keep track on Quarx but can't find a full bug list to compare AOKP and Quarx.
actually there are 3 main bugs i concern:
1. data connection bug - should be 90% solved by Quarx, still sometimes doesn't work. but i don't know the situation in AOKP yet.
2. wifi/bluetooth tethering - not working in Quarx, don't know about AOKP.
3. can't play live video on quickplay media based apps - this one may be not many foreign developers tried. i tried myTV apps from tvb.com, which can't play live video but work in video on demand. i'm using Quarx built and CM9 and CM10 both have this issue.

CM9 Camera

I'm loving the camera on the GS3, but I can't find a stable version of the app for CM9. It is still having problems focusing and shuts down. Anyone know of a version that does have a stable camera app?

Here's a flashable fix. Worked great for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28957409&postcount=458
I still get camera crashes with that fix.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no full fix for the CM9 camera available yet (the flashable fix mentioned earlier was only a partial fix that still caused freezing on focus and was incorporated into CM9 nightlies weeks ago). However, I strongly recommend you try today's CM10 build. In CM10, the camera is fully fixed, everything is even faster, and even though it's still early in development, CM10 is now actually very reliable and polished as a daily driver. Today's CM10 build is far more polished and functional than any CM9 build for d2att.
As what sultanqasim said I would recommend the CM10 jelly bean it has good focusing with the lastest preview build it can be used as a daily driver with next to no bugs. Should be out officially soon or IMO it should. But there will always be bugs.

I'm not quite ready for cm10. cm10 doesn't install every apk (ie. flash). i know the 8/10 build didn't have launcher setting available and the camera DID work great. I guess I'll chill for a while...
Flash for Android is discontinued, legacy, going away. As for CM10, the latest (08/14) build is great. Almost everything works, he only issue I've encountered is sporadic infrequent flickering of the screen (but its rare). Trebuchet is fixed and launcher settings are available in the present build.

Are you using the cm10 euroskank build? I tried the 813 build and was missing several main apps including the camera, and this was on a clean install. Been using the CM9 nightlies until I get a 10 that works well on my phone.
No, I haven't tried the euroskank builds. I'm using cyanogen's own official preview builds in the original dev forum. Just about everything is present and working in that current build.
P.S. Could you have flashed the wrong GAPPS by any chance when you tried CM10? That could possibly explain why CM10 didnt work as exppected. You need the 07/26 Jellybean GAPPS with CM10.

Which of the three Cyanogen10 is better?

Hello, I have seen the forum that there are three Cyanogen10:
CyanogenMod 10.0.0-RC0 marvel/marvelc ALPHA0 By: modpunk
Cyanogenmod 10 builds (WIP) [MARVEL] [UNOFFICIAL By: benjamingwynn
CyanogenMod 10 Nightlies - modpunks work By: dudeman1996
I tried the first and second and I see more or less the same, the only thing there was a camera and another yes
What you recommend me for one day? Currently I have Cyanogen9 Alpha 7
thanks
Same here, I tried all the three and they're full of bugs. (FOR ME) and the biggest problem was the Htc Ime Keyboard didn't work on jbs. So I'm back on CM9 Alpha 7.
I tried Ben's and Modpunk nightlies...I couldn't get past through the boot animation due to I think bad building for Ben's ROM....
I was currently using Modpunk nightlies, it was working great except for the fact that Link2SD won't work with the ROM. I think I gotta get a different compatible kernel for that... (any suggestions?) Other than that, gapps is a pain to work with on this ROM especially with Cam, and low space to even flash them!!
cm10 is full of bugs .. i dont think its worth bothering with for daily use
i doubt if this will ever work, I think this is too much for the WFS
I'm running benjamingwynn's cm10 and it is absolutely smooth. The few main bugs are not annoying for me (gps and camera not working). The real pain is that some apps can't be installed (in my version) because of sd card permissions. But I use this ROM every day.

Do CM9 and CM10 have wi-fi issues?

I survived rooting an S3, flashing CM9 and then having wi-fi work fine that day but cease functioning the next. I tried CM10 but that didn't fix the wi-fi issue. I went back to stock 4.1.1 LK3 and wi-fi works. Are the wi-fi drivers in CM not that good? Nothing I tried could get connectivity after the first day. Reflashing didn't fix the issue.
I can live with relatively minor bugs in ROMs, but not when it comes to wi-fi. What else should I be trying? I'm thinking of LiquidSmooth, but am open to suggestions. What I did love about CM was how fast it booted and ran.
One person here whose opinion I highly respect uses Task ROM and Lean kernel. Anyone else like those?
Well there are many different roms out there I personally run Jellybam which is a mixture of AOKP, CM10, and Paranoid Android. Also, it's pretty stable i have the occasional Wifi drops but you just have to turn it off and turn it back on and I have problems with the Paranoid Android part of it. From what i know Cyanogenmod has moved on to 10.1 which is 4.2.1 and i think AOKP has move on to 4.2.1 and i think they are still working on some bugs. But i haven't been on their threads in a while.
But i heard that AOCP The Collective and Jedi Invasion are stable roms just to name a few (don't know 100%) but i would read up on their threads before doing anything as to be 100% sure before flashing. For example I read that someone had problems with Jedi Invasion 2.1 but 2.0 worked great for them, etc.
i had horrible wifi on any rom i tried. it onky worked on stock for me when i turned off wifi power saving. however the newest aokp from task, android 4.2 has fixed my problems and i no longer experience problems.

I find it odd that wi-fi is such an issue given how common and universal this technology is. Plus wi-fi is such an essential service, far more than many other features. Appreciate the replies, which have given me new ROMs to research more closely.

Not finding this. Search has zero results. Wrong spelling?
Ive had wifi issues on all cm 10 and aokp based roms. I havent had any wifi issues on the newer cm 10.1 or aokp 4.2 or any of the touch wiz based roms. Another option is use an app called smart wifi toggler it seems to work pretty well and is free on the play store.

Well, I'm looking at Task & Ktoonsez AOKP Task 4.2.1 as a first-choice potential ROM, so your positive remark about wi-fi is good to read.
I do use the wi-fi toggle you noted, but it won't overcome a functional wi-fi issue in a ROM...at least for me.
Out of curiosity, do these hybrid ROMs run themes for CM, AOKP and others or only one specific type?
Task and Ktoonsez is a great ROM really stable. I was using it for a while but I am actually running Liquid Smooth RC9 right now and its my ROM of choice. I personally like the vanilla experience you get from Liquidsmooth. The Liquid Splasher is incredibly customizable, and no issues with wifi whatsoever.
Good luck!

I read LS thread and was concerned about posts regarding different RCs. Some love RC7, others RC9, and there seemed to be a lot of things waiting to be fixed. No? I'm probably going to try the TK ROM first, but am keeping an eye on LS because I have a second S3 that I will root and flash after first one is ready for daily use. The wi-fi issue is most important to me, so I'm interested that you have had no problems on your S3.
Is Liquid Splasher the launcher?
Does LS support AOKP/CM10 themes?
Liquid Splasher is the internal customizer to set a various array of settings and configurations, there is a huge amount of options so kind of hard to give you a detailed listing of what it can do. LS Launcher is stock nothing special about it but you can always just install nova if you prefer nova.
Yes I have been able to run AOKP themes.
Heres the unofficial thread about LS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012791
I am sure you will really like Tasks ROM its really good from the experience I had. But for me personally I am just having a lot more success with LS in regards to performance and app compatibility, and battery life. It seems everyone has a little different experience with custom ROM`s so I can only speak for myself that LS has been rock solid for me.
Hope that helps somewhat.
Yes, your remarks have been very helpful. Always good to read comments from someone with experience with these things. Most appreciated.

[Q] AOKP Vs CM10.1

Hey guys. I love flashing new ROMs but right now I'm a bit confused.
What are the big differences between CM10.1 and AOKP? I know both are based on 4.2 (at least the unofficial AOKP nightlies are).
The main thing I need is stability and battery life. I also really like customizing the LED. Other than that...I'm lost.
Stock ROM.........................................................................................................................................................................................................
just try them out yourself.........................
I have tried them both out.
Once I install a theme and Nova Launcher, I can't tell the difference.
Just compare the feature lists. Or use CNA or PACman which incorporate features from both.
I'd say the CM10.1 & CM10.1 Kangs would be better if you want a stable ROM with frequent flashing (Nightlys) over AOKP , otherwise try Xylon as it has best features cherrypicked from both AOKP , AOSP & CM bases :good: & highly customizable + a good support thread too !!
Paranoid Android is also a better option but the PA is no more a CM base rom (AOSPA base instead) , missing those theming & more CM features .
for a closer to stock UX RasbeanJelly is the best !

I would try this if you have a GSM galaxy nexus. Ive heard great things about speed, stability and it has built in led settings. Great battery life as well.

[Q] Need a recommandation for a fast and stable ROM

Hello.
I'm looking for a fast, stable and batterysaving everyday ROM for my Defy+ (red lens) phone.
This is NOT a 'best rom' question, I just want some input to find a ROM among all these GREAT options which is best suited for my needs. As there are loads of ROMs and versions, I'm hoping somebody else have been in my position and have a ROM to recommend!
I have tried Mokee, which was very fast, but a little buggy (dialer FC-ed when 3g) and not very well supported (yet) on Defy+.
Before that I ran the newest Quarx CM10 4.1.2 nightlies, but most of them have some irritating bugs (Wifi ch 11 not working, ringtone bug etc), and I don't want the hassle of having to upgrade the phone every week.
CM9, CM10, I really don't care as long as it is fast and stable.
Before that I ran the Pikachu-rom from TweetyPeety. It looked very nice, but developement is not continued and besides the not-so-great speed there were some bugs unfortunately.
Today I tried the newest CM9 (12-11-18) from Epsilon, but the batterydrain was bad compared to Mokee.
Thanks!

If you want a STABLE rom for DEFY than only back to stock GB and MS2G or CM7.
I have also tried many of the CM10 but if Reability, Speed and Battery is TOP agenda than only GB for now.
