5.0 will be out before CM gets their act together. I’ve had my Nexus for almost 6 months. There have been no stable builds of CM9. There have been 5 on AOKP. I have tried CM9 a few times…it hardly has any features. AOKP is loaded. Navbar customization has been there for a while.

CM is not really behind. They just make sure there code is perfect before it gets accepting in gerrit. They also support more devices. AOKP started on the Galaxy Nexus so they didn’t have to get ICS working first. Like the nav bar was submitted to gerrit in march and was just approved last week. Notice how many bugs gets fixed in every AOKP release? Cleaner code equals less bugs and if there is any they are easier to debug.

That sounds like excuses. CM9 feels like stock, compared to AOKP. More toggles and settings = more customization. That’s why I flash custom ROMs.

Yeah, some complain about lack of updates…we get “too many.”. I could never be excited over an OTA again. With CWM Touch, Titanium, and now this…we are definitely spoiled : )

“Without sounded like a jackass: our code goes through a much more stringent review.”
“You have to keep in mind this is a different implementation, and ours will be simpler by design and choice. We have a vision of what CM9 should be, and with respect to the work AOKP has done and contributed to the community, CM9 will not be an overabundance of settings and toggles.”

Two quotes from a CM dev. I also thing the way they implement the Nav bar and lockscreen customization is a lot better then any other rom. Feels like its part of the rom not just a paste on top type thing.

For sure. I use AOKP on my phone and Tablet and it really is great to see a Dev. so active. We are spoiled with all the updates we get lol. It only seems overdue that I give back a little something. Community is great.

Only if you are flashing a different ROM from a different dev. With AOKP you don’t really need to wipe if your updating say from build 35 to build 36 unless it is a different version of Android or if the dev. says it is necessary. AOKP settings are the same from build to build with the exception of them adding new settings in which case you could still back up the profile but it won’t include the new settings untill you back that up. It’s pretty fool proof at this point.

Probably so. But, this makes it effortless. Plus, glad to support the effort : )

Actually Titanium backs up System/Rom settings also. This is just a very specific profile of settings you get from AOKP. Pretty sure you could just use Titanium if you knew what settings you needed to backup.

isn’t it safer to not restore system settings when going to a new ROM?

You must not be using the Nexus. Zero issues on the Nexus.

Ran it for a few weeks actually when M5 came out. I was getting random reboots and lockups while taking pictures. That’s not stable. As you said its an amazingly feature packed ROM and I’m sure it will continue to get better as time progresses.

I miss CNA best ROM there was. Never had one problem with that. So far haven’t had any problems with CM9 the past week I’ve been on it.
