[Q] Where's 10.2 Stable for Hummingbird?

[Robotech_Master]

CyanogenMod posts that it's just released its stable version 10.2, with Android 4.3 Jellybean.

But when I go to the Hummingbird download page for it, I don't see either the stable or the RC1, just the nightly builds. It's puzzling—if they weren't developing for Hummingbird anymore, why would there be a nightly build from last night?

When can I expect the stable version to show up for my Nook HD? I'd really like to try out 4.3.

Are you looking under the right folder for it?

I'm looking in download (dot) cyanogenmod (dot) com/?device=hummingbird – the link from the guide in this directory. It shows the RC and Stable builds for 10.1, but just a snapshot and nightlies for 10.2.

Same here.

It isn't there for ovation either. It could be that verygreen or hashcode have to give their approval before CM builds the stable for the HD/HD+. I know verygreen has been very busy with his job lately.

So I'm told that I can probably get by with just installing the latest nightly and the trimfix kernel from nook (dot) rootshell (dot) ru/hd/

Basically I would flash it from cwm after flashing the nightly, and be sure not to allow the CM nightly to update automatically or the default kernel would overwrite the trimfix.

Sound right to people?

This whole time I thought the nightlies had the trimfix kernel. Thanks for the info!

So anyway, it's been weeks and still only the nightlies are to be found in the Hummingbird download section.

What's the deal? Why would there even still be continual nightlies if development on this branch is over? And why is there no final?

I have seen this on other devices there may never be an official release. Check the nightly logs the ROM is probably identical to the one before it just new number.

So, now we're seeing the first CM 11 development for the Nook HD.

Where's the 10.2 final?

Verygreen just got back from 2 months in Japan. Give him time.

How can someone get involved with the project to help get the stable release for HD+ packaged up? Would be nice to get 10.2 sooner than later without having to revert to technically unstable builds.

"technically unstable"? Just because it is labeled nightly does not make it unstable.

That's why I said "technically unstable", due to the fact that "nightly" builds inherently have a risk of instability, due to their very nature.
The reality is that there's not been any changes to 10.2 HD+ branch in awhile, so really the nightly could possibly just be relabeled as stable by the maintainers, but until that occurs, it obviously retains the label of "nightly" which is considered to be an unstable release.
