There is no perfect ROM. Actually, there is no perfect software. And especially the ones that are still under heavy development (such as CM11) will most likely have some bugs. It's absolutely normal. If you don't want software bugs, you should not use any software. Cause there is no perfect software. :)

As for "better than another ROM", you can't really compare those. Better is a variable that only you can accurately measure. There is no "better" better than your better. So...it depends on what you're using the ROM for.

The bugs that you mentioned might affect everyone, if they are major bugs, or just some of the people (the people using that specific feature/set of features).

Now, a comparison in terms of bugs (though that's not an accurate measurement of a ROM's quality) would probably show that a ROM based on finalized CM sources, like CM9/ CM10/ CM10.1, might have less bugs than CM11, which, as I said, it's currently under development. So, from this perspective, using one of the ROMs mentioned above might be an advantage, if you're a heavy user or if you just don't want to deal with the occasional issues that might occur in such ROMs (the ones that are still under development). If you don't mind that, and if you wish to help the ROM grow, you might actually be able to help with that, by providing valuable and accurate information about the bugs that you encounter. Of course, you can do the same for any software and that helps a lot, but I'm just saying that you might have fewer issues to report with a ROM based on stable/finalized sources.

So, in my opinion, in order to establish if this ROM is better for your particular needs, I suggest you make a nandroid backup of your current ROM (which, I suppose it's CM11) and make a clean installation of this one. If you like it better or if it's better for your needs, then keep on using it. If not, you can always restore your nandroid backup. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
A mature ROM is in general better than a new one because many bug got fixed there already. There is no perfect ROM. All of them do have some bugs but the more mature ROMs do have less major issues and just a few minor issues. That´s why I´m also still using CM10.2 on my S3mini. It´s not bugfree but has way less issues than CM11 and with some workarounds this is a way better ROM for daily use than CM11.

I've just flashed latest CM10.2 build and its bloody smooth. There are slight hiccups here and there but theres no perfect ROM so expect things that maybe go wrong. I'll report you guys about gaming performance in a few sec. Keep in mind that the stable-est and best perfomance ROM is still CM9...

Hey guys, im going to buy this phone : http://www.ebay.com/itm/371103865330?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Please let me know what u think about it :D ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Please post in the off-topic thread. :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] TiTAN-O-One:
Well, game tests over.

Firstly, I tested Real Drift and perfomance was decent. I'd call it perfect if the game doesn't stutter often. Moving through menus also stutter as mentioned before.

It was Riptide GP2 next and I tested it with both graphics set to high and low. Well, with low graphics im really shocked. This thing really flies with CM10.2, although in high graphics settings, the phone tends to start getting choppy but its still playable :o I even enabled Water Reflections and well, needless to say, the whole list of Advanced Setting was ticked and its playable.

To double check the stuttering issue, i fired up Follow the Line and theres stutters present there too :)

My setup is basically Interactive & BFQ. Battery did drain a pinch but after that, i did normal use and its coping well. The only thing I'd suggest is 1 step down UV for the kernel :) Amount of RAM is fine as told by arsadu and i got almost no launcher withdraws after heavy app opening :))

Definitely better pefomance than CM11 BUT its up to you whether this ROM suits ya' ;)

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Xhemal1325:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Thank you very much for the test results. I would say it looks good. And even though I'm not a gamer and I have absolutely nooo idea about those games, I'm glad that this is a ROM that suits your gaming needs, at least on a decent/playable level. :)

Hey, I can't find stock Camera app

Sent from the internet
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Redwraith96:
have you flashed some mods,like slurm gapps that delete stock Camera and other apps?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] TiTAN-O-One:
I flashed Lovins Script and inserted my own build.prop tweaks. The camera wasn't there when i first flashed the ROM.

UPDATE: ROMs zip file doesn't include the stock Camera.apk. Tried using a third-party app and it says disconnected camera. Is it because if the RAM?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Redwraith96:

Did you have flashed in pristine way?

If the problem persist try to redownload the rom.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] TiTAN-O-One:

Guys, have any of you encountered this issue:

notification drawer freezes about half way to the bottom and you can't push it back up or pull it down all the way to the bottom? After a few seconds the screen becomes responsive but the notification drawer itself is still stuck. You can click anything underneath though. :) If you did encounter this issue, post here, and if you can, take a log.

[MENTION=4736458]hiitsme123[/MENTION] Here you go: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43509063

I recommend flashing on first install of CM10.2 and then tweak Interactive governor (search, theres tons of tweaks) and switch to Deadline for i/o. I also removed unnecessary system apps. All and all, perfomance is very smooth for an Alpha stage ROM tbh. But still, don't expect Nexus 5 perfomance on a 1 year old+ midrange device ;)

Dev,

Can't send files over bluetooth to another devices ! When selecting the device, it shows 'connecting' for 2 seconds and cancels automatically. Any help ?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
If you're trying to send apks, put them in a zip before sending. In my tests, BT file sending works as intended.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ajiththiruvatta:
I tried to send an image file from the gallery. I can recieve files but can't send anything :(
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Did you make a clean installation of the ROM, exactly as it is described on the first page? Did you install any mods/tweaks/custom kernels?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ajiththiruvatta:
Yes i'm sure that i had done clean installation. I followed all the steps carefully. Didn't tried any kernels, tweaks.. does this rom have any Baseband requirment ??? :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
LOL. No, not that I know of.

Could you upload/send me the image that you're trying to send via BT so that I can run a few tests of my own? Also, is this somethign specific to this particular image or does it happen to any image, no matter the size, format etc?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] ajiththiruvatta:

How to swap memory on this rom?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
You could try editing this line in your build.prop file (in /system), using a file explorer with Root support (I would recommend X-plore, configured for "Superuser + mount writable" ) like this:

From this:

# Change to 1 for swapping SD cards

persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=0

Into this:

# Change to 1 for swapping SD cards

persist.sys.vold.switchexternal=1

Save the file (make sure the changes are saved before coming back here saying it doesn't work) and reboot the device.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dqsnunes:
It's possible i new update with latest kernel 3.4.105 and maybe another version with the new partition layout present on CM11 and CM12?

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zacdroidfan:
I have this problem too, maybe it's because of the kernel or other problems, have the same problem after installing the 3.4.65 kernel released yesterday on David's cm10.2. Sir Asradu told me that its a ROM problem, and so I swich my ROM to this, first boot was fine, setup everything, but second boot, its madness, stuck in the galaxy w logo, tried three more reboots, not booting normal at all. Please fix the problem Asradu... :( Temporary switching to 4.2, since wsb is fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
OK because I can´t PM Radu atm for some reason I would like to ask which recovery you all are using? Is it CWM or TWRP? It´s just a though, but could be related to changed permissions and because fixing permissions isn´t working in CWM.

So well it´s late here and I´m tired so am going to sleep for at least a few hours. Just want to tell the Bug report thread got updated too.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] kai92:
The wait is finally over for the release of cm10.2! Thanks arsradu!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] vetfactor:
good job [MENTION=4022876]arsradu[/MENTION]

i am sure that we have a group of devs who will made this device always good.

i have to wait some time for the mentioned stuck at w logo problem to be fixed.

but for my information what is the core difference between JB4.2.2. and JB4.3.1?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zacdroidfan:
I'm using stock recovery, I don't know but it works ALL the time for flashing stuffs, I know it's stupid for not backing up, but I trust the developers.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
As far I remember flashing a CM based ROM will not work with stock recovery. You need to have CWM or TWRP installed first.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Villani10:
Here is getting that same mistake, it stops on the Galaxy W logo and don't reboot..
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zacdroidfan:
Well I've flasehed before 4.0.4, 4.1, 4.2, and David's version of 4.3, works flawlessly, why not? I just don't have a recovery system, that's all, once failed I'll have to start again:p since everyone have the same problem, so I think it's a ROM or kernel problem then.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] SGWUser:
That shouldn't work because of the signing keys. Stock recovery only accepts .zips that are signed by Sammy AFAIK.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] freinet:
Hey,

I am using touch recovery. Till now it works great, only with this version of rom I have problems. Don't know what to do, I would not like to go back to cwr without touch.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
Guys, for the ones having the problem of getting stuck at boot logo: did you flash the latest CWM Recovery? The link to it is on the OP. If not, could you please, do it and let me know about the result?

Not everyone is having this issue. That's why it hasn't been spotted during testing sessions.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] freinet:
Hey asradu,

I am at work now, but try it today afternoon.

I have touch recovery 6.0.3.6

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dec0der:
okay bro, since this thing is very tempting for me :D, gonna try it now.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
It might also have something to do with whether is the touch or the regular (non-touch) recovery. So that's why I recommended the non-touch CWM Recovery released by arco. It might be important for this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sigprof:
Actually on GT-I8150 the stock recovery does not check signatures (this is the reason why rooting the stock firmware by flashing a .zip via stock recovery works). But the recovery environment provided by the stock recovery may be incompatible with .zip packages for newer ROMs, and even if that works somehow, flashing a custom ROM without being able to perform a nandroid backup/restore or get USB storage access even with unbootable ROM does not look like a wise move.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] honeyx:
Thanks for confirming it. So you all need the latest CWM Recovery to get it working correctly. Should also work with TWRP Recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] freinet:
If I understand you right, it works with touch recovery(6.0.4.0) build by sdfee too?

So meaning that if we use the correct and latest recovery like CWM, we will get a normal boot and normal reboot? Just asking, wanna make it clear, thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dec0der:
it might be. i used the latest recovery by arco (ClockworkMod v6.0.3.8, posted already at OP) and it worked flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] zacdroidfan:
Did your reboot work fine? Reboot three times still fine?

I kinda like using the CWM 6.0.3.3 which still has still fix permission. :D is that allright?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] azhiekurosaki:
Oh.... OK. thanks. :D... I did once with 6.0.3.3 with 4.3, so I assumed it should work fine too with this ROM. Now, I know why others got bootloop.

bro, this was posted by arco when he updated to version 6.0.3.8.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] arsradu:
For CM10.2, sadly, it isn't. You need non-touch 6.0.3.8 for that (link on the OP). The "fix permissions" feature didn't do much so you will be fine without it. Don't worry.

The ROM comes with the kernel, so all you have to do is flash the ROM. It will automatically flash the kernel as well. Installtion instructions on te first post. Just make sure you got CWM 6.0.3.8 from the development section before flashing the ROM and Gapps.

in my devices we must flash kernel first using pc before flash new rom..
