Guys, wanted to know what simply means when a Rom is DISCONTINUED, this simply means that it has reached final release? Or that it was not completed and was abandoned? And UNOFFICIAL? What you guys have to say about it? Among these doubts also like to know when a ROM is in its final, fully stable. Thank you!

DISCONTINUED means that the developer has stop working/support on the ROM... Idk unofficial means...
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda app-developers app
UNOFFICIAL means the ROM that doesn't goes up in get.cm (Official CyanogenMod Download Site) or Official AOKP site, usually for unsupported device by the official CM Team/AOKP Team/Any ROM that has gained popularity but isn't maintained by the official team.
...
Thanks.

Hi guys, just have been wondering if anyone knows about whether there will be an official aokp rom for the phone once htc releases Android 4.0 for it, or not.
Maybe some insiders here?
Thanks

There are custom AOKP rom running ICS right know and the developers are currently working the minor bugs out of them. I am sure that when the official ICS is released for the DHD the devs will have the final source codes to perfect their roms.
ice cold sandwish is Aokp and aosp and cm same time but yes when every thing is stable and an official android 4 from htc is release for our DHD then expect to see AOKP and CM9 and Sense 4, Sense 3.6 for our device lovely isnt it?
as a user of dhd we can only be patient waiting for a reply from the offical test
Well, it will have to be submitted to the team, and you will need some good maintainers...

Great news!
The Cyanogenmod and TeamChopsticks teams just released the first stable CM10 for the T989.
You can grab it here for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SII (SGH-T989 Hercules): http://get.cm/get/4LV
To avoid confusion: The source is out for Android 4.2 and it seems the future CM10.1.0 Stable will be based upon it, however this version (CM10.0.0) is based upon the work put into 4.1.2 and therefore this stands as the final for this version, as well as the first CM10 stable release. This release includes all of the commits up from all of the nightly's up until this build, and a few more.
Justananomaly's advice:
Read carefully or you might cause a rip in the space/time continuum.
You need to do a full wipe unless you're on a recent CM10 nightly already. If you are not using latest TWRP I HIGHLY recommend using CWM 5.0.2.7 after that version, Darkside wipe scripts throw most ROMs into a bootloop. You can get it here: http://db.tt/IAwaFQNx If using TWRP don't use Darkside wipe scripts, just clear cache/dalvik/factory reset. It's not recommended to run Darkside scripts on TWRP.
Radios Here (thanks to VoiD_Dweller): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400
Use this gapps (latest for 4.1.2): http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
I AM NOT PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR THOSE USING GAPPS DESIGNED FOR 4.2 ON THIS 4.1.2 ROM.
Please make a nanoid/twrp backup before flashing ANY rom. If you restore via TitaniumBackup only restore apps+data.
No I am not a part of CM Team or TeamChopsticks, I just posted this super early to avoid multiple threads and the mods needing to merge them. I love my mods.

Is this basically just the 13th nightly marked as stable? Or... is there more to this?
::Edit::
Garth, I meant.. were there a lot of changes to this to make it "stable" since the builds we've been using or are the nightlies what became this? Lol. If that makes any sense.

It's the first verified "stable" build for all devices that CM builds for. There are of course issues still as with all builds (even final builds). Nighly builds can be stable as well but commits are applied daily so what fixes an issue might break something else. Stable builds are more of a milestone between nightly updates as a good progress indicator. So after so long they will release CM10.1.0 with all of the commits made on all of the nighly builds between today and the day it's released for instance. That means this build contains commits from all of the nighly builds up until now, and the CM/TCS teams are satisfied enough to call it "stable"
TL;DR: Nighly builds are experimental, stable releases are what you flash on your grandmas phone, and they are progress milestones.
I hope that helps.

I just got it on my phone, I'll let you know how it feels.
Thanks team chopsticks! Looking forward to CM10.1, hopefully AOSP goes live soon and the merges don't take long.
Thanks Cm ! Yall came a longg way this is running smoothly
Can't believe yet lol, get.cm is servers are overloaded I'm guessing
CM10 Stable feels really smooth.
Excuse my ignorance but from my understanding, jellybean's smoothness has part to do with the GPU. From what I've read we don't have such drivers available for the t989. With that in mind, does this ROM utilize ICS GPU drivers or perhaps generic drivers?
Insight on this is appreciated

I believe Team CM use a modified ics source chipset driver for our device. Nothing beats source though and we might have that in the coming months.
Either way, this is smooth.

Why are some builds considered official while most are unofficial?
The only "official" builds are found on the Samsung sites. Now, there are mirrors to those build but when in doubt, you get your OEM build from Samdung. All other builds are "hacks" (and I say that as a term of endearment) that are not 100%. These are non-official and using them is at one's own risk. I have tried several of them and found them wanting so I went back to the OEM. Yes, I am rooted but that is all. Rooted with OEM Rom or Firmware. So I guess that means that I do not have OEM Rom on my P5210. Hmmm...:angel:
"Official" builds are those from the Rom's team and are maintained and updated by those teams. "Unofficial" builds are ported by a dev and are not supported by that Roms team.
Unofficial builds are by no means bad. Usually they are ported by a dev because the particular device is not supported by a ROM team.

I am running the pac-man ROM which I see is unofficial, it runs very well. I did notice that Validus is an official ROM and wondering if that might be better, but think I will stick with Pac-man for now unless there is a reason to change.
I think when it says "Official", that means it is out of testing and preproduction. Not an official sanctioned Rom. If you take your device for repair and they see that rom on there, your warranty is void.
I didn't make it up. That is what it says on the developers site. I suppose they may label it as official just to fool newbies like me.
Brian D said:
What? Don't be ludicrous. Official firmware is made only by the manufacture, not some developer who hacked the OEM Rom in any shape, form,or function. All the roms found on XDA or any other Android site is not official unless it was made by Samsung, or whoever the OEM is for that device.
Please do not redefine words just to suit the occasion or to make others feel good.

You seem to blinded by what your opinion of official is. Everyone knows that only device manufacturers release "official" firmware, no one will argue that point. But the nature of this question is exactly as @dparrothead1 answered, referring to official or unofficial builds (such as CM, AOSP roms, and recoveries) which are frequently released by teams or groups as "official" releases supported by that team. Often, other people outside of the team will release a build, but since they aren't part of the team, that build is considered in unofficial.

Validus is official. It is built and maintained by Ground Zero Roms and it is very smooth and fast. It also has all the customizations you could want!!!
Make a nandroid of you pac-man and try it.....you can always reinstall your present ROM.
