I notice that the last Stable Cyanogenmod build for Nexus 7 2013 (Flo) was back at the start of December, and that the nightlies have advanced all the way up to Cyanogenmod 11 now. I installed 10.2 first (the most recent stable) and then 11 afterwards, the difference is pretty big.
What version are you using?
Is it worth using nightlies?
Nightlys are generally perfectly stable on Nexus devices

Nightlies are put out to fix, patch, refresh etc ROMS. CM is pretty good about releasing stable builds. As a rule, the newer the release, the more fixes it might need

im now on cm10, can i just boot into recovery do a full wipe and flash cm9 (stable) to my nexus?
which one you guys think its better cm10 or cm9 stable?
thanks in advance
There is no cm10 stable at the moment. The cm10 nightlies are stable enough, plus it's jelly.
Try it, thought it's practically the same experience besides os differences and project butter.

cm10 for sure, its stable.
project butter is too buttery not to use

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought CM10-M1 was a stable release?

Not exactly. While Monthly's are more stable than Nightly's, it's still not a "Stable Release".
So order of stability: Stable Release (10.0) > Monthly Release (10.0M1) > Nightly Release (10.0N38)
Source: CyanogenMod Blog
To OP: I would suggest you try out CM10 Monthly 1. Should be perfectly stable for everyday use. If you find instability, then go ahead and go with CM9. As far as how you flash it, yes, that's how you flash it.

Latest CM10 nightly is on 4.1.2. Even though it says nightly it is stable for everyday use, don't be scared because it says nightly.
Just try it. I'm always on nightly and never experience any problems.

Nightlies are stable for the most part, the only bad thing about nightlies is that coding the devs have done is sometimes merged without proper testing, which can cause some instabilities. This is NOT a dealbreaker though since the bugs often are fixed/rectified the next nightly.
Find a nightly you think are stable and stick with it

It has to be approved before being officially merged unless you use a unofficial version such as Jellybro. Although sometimes they are merged and then removed so yeah you are right to an extent.
Chances of instability are pretty close to slim as CM on Nexus are pretty stable. Although, if anything does happen--they can just say, "oh its a nightly."
What I'm basically saying is that, just because it says nightly... don't be afraid to flash or try it out! It is very much stable
I flashed 2012-12-04 Nightly and they seem to still run 4.1 ?
This is not a whining thread, I am just confused... why are they still releasing 4.1 Nightlies when many other phones already got 4.2.1 nightlies.
GNexus doesn't have 4.2.1 nightlies yet.. right?

Yes CM 10.1 which is 4.2.1 is not official yet, however, you may like to check this "Unofficial" thread
You will need to wait some time for the official CM 10.1 update

Just a question, how come they continue to release the CM10 nightlies? Why don't they completely focus their efforts on CM10.1 rather continue working on an out dated version?

because they want to get CM10 perfectly working but they are already working on CM10.1 but just not for the galaxy nexus that's why you need to checkout the unofficial nightlies but if you want to get the new camera and apps of 4.2 you can flash the gapps on your device running cm10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_k2UTkZ4xic
Just wondering if anyone is still running this? I seen this is the last version before the 10.1 started. I want to run the CM10 because 10.1 still has some bugs.
Just some quick questions
1. Does MMS work?
2. Are there any major bugs?
Again this is for the 12/16 CM10 4.1.2 nightly.
Sent from my stock rooted Galaxy S3
im still running it and its perfect.. everything works and has great battery life.
im using the kt747 kernel with it and oc to 1.8
The latest nightly builds of CM have a FEW bugs...but still quite stable/usable. I run the 12/16 build every once in awhile, but the new nightly's are so damn smooth.
Also, give LiquidSmooth RC2 a try. Virtually bug free. The Stable release of LiquidSmooth has a few bugs, but again, still very stable.
If your going for a virtually BUG FREE AOSP Rom, I would advise LiquidSmooth RC2 with the latest BMS Kernel. Tweak it to OnDemand/Row : 126 min, 1512max, and you will be quite pleased.
Generally the CM versions up to the latest official release are very stable
As in, the latest official release was MB1 (4.1.2) so you can expect CM 4.1.2 to be very stable
Its when you go past the official release versions that you start encountering more bugs, like in CM 10.1 (4.2.1 and 4.2.2)
I just tried out Liquidsmooth. It's not a bad rom, just don't like the fact it looks like a theme.
Yeah I know CM uses a launcher as well, but overall it looks like a stock JB rom. Flashed cm10 nightly 12/16. Runs great with no issues or freezing. Once we get the official 4.2.2 I'll update to cm10.1.

now which rom u use and which rom u flash next
Stock ROM+Xposed Framework+Gravity+francos kernel, gives me pretty much all I need and want. That being said, I do plan on installing MultiROM and trying this out.

Stock ROM rooted with xposed framework, root and everything. Seems like it's the most stable ROM, but I'm going to try CM11 for the extra features !

Scrosler's clean rom 2.6. I'll probably flash cleanrom 2.7 when it comes out, as clearnrom suits my needs.

+1, and I have Elementalx 2.4 with minumal tweaks.
OmniRom as they are a new team with some good ideas like multi window however currently not implement of their official nightly builds. Also has opendelta which is an ota with a twist. Trying it out so far so good and stable running ART.

Also I'd like to say they seem to have a lot more activity on their gerrit than say PA, which translates to a more enjoyable testing experience (at least for me) due to more changes in nightlies.
Mahdi ROM for nexus 4, will probably stick to this or purity until carbon release their 4.4 ROM

Hello, I have got a Nexus 7 2013 unlocked bootloader, rooted and running CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly. Recently I have tryed to install the Franco Kernel since i have heard a lot of good things about it, but whenever i do, it reboots into a very laggy CyanogenMod 12.1 boot animation and goes into a bootloop. I have tried installing through recovery and through the non pro version of the Franco Kernel app. The only way i could fix it is by installing the CyanogenMod 12.1 ROM again. Any help would be much appreciated

That's because the kernel isn't compatible with cm12, cm and stock are built in a different way and a cm kernel is not compatible with stock and vice versa..
If you ever see a laggy bootanimation after flashing a kernel you can be 99,9% sure that it is not compatible with your rom

Do you know of any kernels compatible with CyanogenMod 12.1. Thanks in advance
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Forums
Use the CAF version of a kernel for CM or CM-based roms. Use AOSP for stock or aosp-based roms.
Franco doesn't have a caf version but most of the other kernels do.
