Unless the dev recommends a full wipe, usually for an update to the same rom you don't need to do a full wipe. Download new version to sd card. Backup your current rom (just in case). Wipe cache and dalvik cache. Flash new version and reboot. That's it.

Thanks for the info, update works without any issue.

[Q] Force Close problem with Rom

Hi,
Newbie with my 1st post. This is the 1st time I have rooted and installed a custom rom, I installed on my Desire HD RCMIX3d Runny 1.2 custom rom, but when in some apps like whatsapp & playerpro, and I press the Menu button, the application crashes. Does anyone else experience this. Besides a few niggles this rom is way better than the stock rom.
Could the crashes in the applications be down to this running Android 2.3.5 as this is not yet an official release?
Or if it is not, is there a fix or would I need to wait for a newer version of the ROM?
Thanks in advance
Ask in the ROM thread
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Did you do the full wipe before you install the ROM? /data left from incompatible ROM may cause mysterious problems.

Hi, and welcome to the forums.
Has anybody else in the ROM specific thread reported the same issue as you? If not, do as suggested above. Wipe and then reflash the ROM.
If you used ClockWorkMod to install there is an option in Advanced > Fix Permissions.

V4 is outdated. I recommend you to use v6. You can examine backups with that too, you just need to set the backup format to tar. dsixda's kitchen can handle it.

The hboot Version is a bit weird, does anyone know? Normally you download the latest version of the ROM.
And if you flash a new ROM, first wipe all data, and then flash the new ROM.

Hi,
You are on GB firmware.
You need to upgrade your firmware ,BEFORE you can install ICS or JB ROMS.
Look HERE
Read the thread very carefully.
Follow it to the letter.
Substitute whatever ROM you want in the process.
Although ARHD is a good place to start.

Hi,
If you have data you want to save,use Titanium Backup before you start anything.
The thread I linked you,gets you to install 4EXT recovery.
When you have upgraded to ICS/JB firmware,then,go into recovery/wipe/format all partitions except sd card.
This will wipe your phone clean,ready to install the new ROM.
You can then install the ROM of your choice.
The thread suggests ARHD ROM.
This is a good place to start.

[Q] Jelly Shot 3.2 & Marmite 7.2 SODs

Hi,
I am new to this forum so could not post this question to the original jelly shot 3.2 thread where a user has posted similar question
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39435005&postcount=1699
I am facing exactly same issue where the phone becomes unresponsive and dead until i pull out the battery and reboot it.
Seems like a sleep of death issue.
Tried fixing permission & clearing caches..but same issue.
ROM was installed by flashing ROMWiper first & then installing this.
Recovery: TWRP
ROM: JellyShot 3.2
Kernel: Marmite 7.2
Model: I9020T (T-Mobile Edition)
Let me know how i can resolve this issue or gather some logs for the ROM developer or move this post to the actual thread
Thanks,
Zoom

Already tried flashing/wiping couple of times, but after 2-3days...it begans to show SOD!
Stock Jelly Bean was stable and never exhibited this behavior...neither i am overclocking
Any other debugging or logs i can gather to investigate this further?
Finally...nailed the culprit! Autokiller Memory Optimizer was causing those SODs...
Uninstalled & since then the ROM is working like mint...awesome smooth!
Thanks for the Great Work.
