hey guys, Steve here.
Just wanted a users view of how stable cm9 is for the nook 16GB.
What works, and do you prefer it over cm7.
Thanks guys, looking forward to hearing your replies.

Extremely stable on the 2.x kernel, though no hardware acceleration (HD movies, netflix, HD youtube, high end games).
But to best gauge if its right for you, test it out. You can always restore a backup or flash a different rom if it isn't quite ready for you.
Cheers for the quick response.
How does it compare to CM7 in terms of speed, battery life etc.
Thanks

I'd say both speed and battery life are about the same between CM7 and CM9. However, ICS just feels so much nicer and smoother. I'd definitely recommend giving it a shot.
The cm9 is very stable, but because it's 30day "time limited" I still use cm7, for daily use, with the ICS themes. Once cm9 gets finalized with the 3.x kernel, I think it will be a beauty .

Hey guys, Epic 4g user here. I'm updating a buddies phone to CM7 and just wanted to get the communities opinion on which route to go. He works alot of hours so we don't really get much time to play around with different builds so I want to get a very stable and battery efficient rom on it for him. So my question is the latest nightly build stable enough to run as a daily driver? Anyone have problems with battery with CM7 stable or nightly? Would you recommend a different rom instead of CM7?
Don't feel obligated to answer all or any of the questions lol just wanted some opinions! Thanks!

I'm using UnNamed ROM 1.1. I like it a lot. Very stable and very good battery life. It's worth looking into in my opinion.
If you choose cm7 go for the most recent nightly, it's extremely stable and the recently nightly fixes wifi tethering. Everything works perfectly and no issues, I've been running the nighties for awhile with no issue.

Thanks! I'll definitely keep it in mind. It'll probably ultimately come down to which one he thinks looks better

Thanks for the feedback. If we go with cm7 I'll use the latest nightly any reports on battery life? He was complaining that his stock rom out of the box was only lasting him 7-8 hrs :\
Battery life is great for me since I've started using juice defender and cm7. Overnight I loose two percent in 8 hours and I get through the day with heavy usage and thirty percent left with close to 4 hours screen time. I'll try and post some screenshots if you'd like once I'm home

Nah I trust you lol. My usage of cm7 on my epic sounds the same with the same outcome! Thanks

Thanks again for the replies. We decided to go with unnamed's rom cuz he wanted to keep the stock look. Installed and running great! thanks for the suggestion!

Gday guys, just wondering how CM9 is working out on the Nook Tablet, It would be great to hear some feedback!
Cheers Steve
It seems stable enough. It's just missing a few things which could cause it to be a little sluggish at times and certain apps or features to not function. Look over in the dev thread at the details. I don't use it as my primary because it isn't as smooth as CM7 and I can't use Netflix yet. CM9 has a much better interface and looks nicer than CM7 so if it fits your needs I'd say try it.
I've been using it as my primary (only) ROM since the night it dropped and couldn't be happier.

I really wish we could run netflix and I would be in. I am so used to cm7 it is going to be hard to switch over. Then again that is the fun part too...
Sent from my Nook Tablet using xda premium
If you want to play graphic intensive games or use netflix, then CM9 may not be for you. I cancelled my netflix some time ago in favor of hulu+ and have a Xoom for games so I use cm9 as my daily. It's really a question of whether or not the missing parts are important to you. CM9 is otherwise extremely stable and has great battery life.
The Cm7 rom is great and props to Team B, but unfortunately gingerbread is a relic of android; it was designed for smaller screens. ICS is the real tablet deal.
It may only be me, but, I like that in CM7 apps like Maps and Earth can set your location from the wireless network you are logged into. I was not able to do that with CM9. Other than that they were pretty much the same for stability.
Stability of CM9 (as of October)
Hey again guys, instead of starting another post i would continue with this one...
Again, how stable is the new CM9, my reason for asking is that im still using CM7, and its great - really stable.
Im currently travelling, and i use my Nook all the time for Comics and books etc, and if its not stable i dont have time to just sit down and play with it?
If anyone can offer me any advice that would be great!
Cheers Steve
Try Chris's CM10 0.05.3. I have found it to be extremely stable since the latest update. No reboots or SODs
Sent from my NOOK Tablet running CM10 0.05.3
Agreed...try Chris' CM10. I haven't had any problems outside of battery life with the last few releases.

I'm really interested on the Motorola Atrix (non-AT&T's), so I've been doing some research here on XDA and other places and it seems a really good device to buy.
It has official ClockworkMod recovery (regular and touch), official CyanogenMod 7.2, a great community behind it, coming ICS to the AT&T's version (which would be useful to get some proper libs for CM9 and perhaps CM10) and the benchmark results are fairly good.
But there are some questions that remain unanswered.
I looked for videos on YouTube of the CyanogenMod 7.2 on the Atrix to evaluate the experience and smoothness, but they are all old (early in the days of unofficial builds). Also, most of them have 1.4, 1.45 or 1.5 GHz of CPU clock.
I'm interested to know how it performs with a recent official CyanogenMod 7.2 and its stock kernel at default 1 GHz of CPU clock (again, both experience and smoothnes). The stock CM kernel is 2.6.32, right?
I appreciate any feedback you guys can give me. Thanks again! :good:
Me use 20120701
Change kernel ( last CM7 faux )
Work very well.
Battery life is good.
Now using 20120708
Stock kernel.
Good job. Stable and fast.
Sory for bad english.

Hey
I own an ATT Atrix 4G device which runs on the official stable cm7.2.
I never over/under clock my device because i hate doing that..
Its is very smooth, very quick and responsive. No lag at all.
Also there are better launchers (i.e. the touchwiz launcher) which are way more responsive then stock ADW and have absolutely no startup lag.
So long story short, it is a great device, I love it and i would suggest so buying it.
Sorry for my bad English, Nathan.
I'd invest in a different phone that doesn't overheat and doesn't lag as much as the atrix.
lags? what kind of lags? I am using official CM7 with stock kernel and it's orrery stable and fast. but sometimes I wanna go to back to blur ROM for webtop, this is one of the best features.
Thanks everyone for your answers! :good:
One more question: I found the device folder of the official CyanogenMod, but I can't find the kernel sources of the official CyanogenMod. I only found these sources, but they are not on the CyanogenMod's github. Could someone tell me where to find the official kernel sources?
As always, thanks in advance! :good:

Thanks, but I'm looking for the kernel's source code.
I sugest TWRP instead of clockworck, has a better interface.
This phone is pretty reliable, but i would get a Galaxy Nexus For 350 from the Playstore.

That is such a good deal for that phone. JB soon for it too.
Sent my Atrix that is faster than most phones

I can't complain about my good old Atrix, but I have to admit that Nexus is possibly the future of Google.

I agree, completely with him. But, oh well.
For HoneyComb, I've always preferred Galaxy Task 14. Its fast, stable, smooth, and it feels great. But if you're looking for a non-touchwized HC version I suggest Clean Rom. You'll need honeycomb for now if you want camera support, no ICS/JB ROMs support camera until Sammy' decides to cough up the source/drivers.
For ICS it really depends. CM9 nightly builds are great, but I've always gone back to AOKP nightlies/milestones after a CM9 flash. I feel AOKP has a quicker, snappier feel to it. Plus, AOKP is highly customizable. I suggest Milestone 6.
For JB theres just one port, but this really isn't for the faint of heart since wifi, sound, and the camera do not work at all. This is highly experimental and you really should go here if you're looking for a daily driver, but it is really smooth.
Overall, I suggest AOKP M6 its really smooth, and its ICS. The only down side is the camera issue.
With the ease of flashing these ROM's it would be beneficial to test each one and see what you think offers you the best stability, response, and works with whichever apps you use.
I have been playing with Scott's CleanROM 2.0 and Task650's Task14 slim. I am currently on Task's ROM and using Pershoots kernel. I honestly like both ROM's thus far.... going to test out Bindroid next.
Those roms task14 and clean are for wifi only he has p7500 use bindroid for honey comb or cyanogennod9 for ics.. I'd recommend cm9 look for it in cm9 Site as p4 with no variants but p4

Wait for stable Jelly Bean Rom
I have tested JB ROM. Still its to early to comment but its buttery smooth and lightning fast. After a stable rom comes. It would be way better then ICS or honeycomb.
Test and explore different Roms and decide for yourself. I settled on Task's Slim 14.

I don't see why that has to be the case, provided people can stay mature and polite to one another.
If the thread descends into flaming then of course it'll be locked but in the mean time, I see no reason not to give it a fair chance.

Hi,
my wife uses her Atrix 4G and likes it very much. I put the Nottachtrix ROM on it about a year ago. It is still 2.3 based, so I was thinking about to get her a stable 4.x ROM. What is your advice? Which ROM shall I go for. Stability is the king. Nothing else really matters. She is not a tweaker, nor gamer.
Thanks.

If you want stability, stay on a GB based ROM. Any ICS (4.0.x) or JB (4.1.x-4.2.x) ROMs are semi stable, but have their drawbacks. The biggest problem with stability was the kernel. Now with a compatible kernel, we're getting somewhere, but we still have a long way to go before its at the point where it can be a daily driver.

Its a work in progress, the public alpha just got released on the 19th. Main issues are battery life, overheating, random reboots, camera, and on blur based ICS ROMs, bluetooth and home button. Also, screen tearing seems to be an issue for some devices.
