I am having a problem with leedroid 3.1.2. I get a random freeze while I'm on the internet then it reboots into a boot loop. I came from lee 3.0.3 I even did a full wipe before 312. Any ideas?!

Mud knows his stuff. If that's what he says then I'd bet money on that's your only solution. Do the wipe yourself i wouldn't trust one of the .zip wipes. This way you'll know it wiped everything that's supposed to be wiped. That's my personal opinion though.
Aslo I will add that rom manger has a bug where it doesn't always do a full wipe. So the best course of action is to go through cwm.

It usually depends if your changing from different ROMs or staying with the same chef. When changing between different chefs Roms, its always best to do a wipe. Their thread will tell you such. If your staying with the same chef, you only need to wipe if they say so. Usually it will be noted in the release notes.
Good rule of thumb, if you are in doubt, use titanium backup and wipe.

Why would you wipe dalvik after wiping /data? Dalvik is located in /data and will already have been wiped.

How do you do a full wipe like everything except the s d card I don't want it to have any remdrnts of anything is that what the Android revolution wipe would do.

Thanks for infotmation.
Sorry for bumping an old thread but just to clarify on the wiping. In order to transition from lets say an Android Revolution HD ROM to one of InsertCoins I would have to wipe the data and cache via Recovery or else a simple execution of Mike's Superwipe script would suffice?
Zz
data and cache wipe recommendet before flashing new roms.
if u wont that there could be some know issue problems - so dont cry ;-)
maybe u should take an nandbackup before flash.
tried wipe when i flashed 2 roms ... so far so good ...
no harm wiping ... and dun forget to backup before that
I rooted my phone with the new hack kit from attn1, went smooth. When flashing my Rom (cm7) it keeps showing the loading screen (little blue Android on skateboard) but it never completes the load. Suggestions?
Try downloading rom manager and get the latest clockwork mod recovery and check the md5 sum of the rom

Do a data and cache wipe then reflash the rom that worked for me..

CM 7.1.0 is EXT4 so you definitely must do a wipe if you're coming from stock (EXT3).
Cm7 never worked for me either. Could never sign into my google account

+1.
You could even just wipe data, cache and dalvik, then reboot.
Update. Not all roms can function when wiping data without re-flashing so if you run into problems its always best to wipe it all and reflash. I just suggested the other method cause it has worked for me on several occasions.

Thank you guys
Thanks so much guys. I wiped and reflashed and BOOM, i'm rocking cm7. XDA peeps for the win. Honestly, I sincerely appreciate the help.
If I hit factory reset on a custom Rom will it unroot and freeze my phone up?

Best just reflash and don't wipe

No it won't do either, it will wipe your information and pretty much everything that isn't on your sd card. Full wipes are generally required when switching from one Rom to another.

Don't I just wipe all partitions except sd card.

Hi,
Sounds good, if your are staying on ICS.
I just wipe data factory reset, wipe cash and dalvik, then install from zip. This its going from sense to Aokp. I never had a problem. It installed and ran perfectly. Hope this helps you. They're different ways but this is what I do. Then changing back I do the same. Never caused a problem.. Works perfectly for me.

Did you do a full wipe including SD card? Cyanogen and Virtuous are very different so I'd remove any traces of VI but installing CM9.
If same result possible screen on the way out
This is probably a result of flashing the ROM incorrectly. I've had this problem before, just do a full wipe and try again. :good:
