I've done this several times.. Mine doesn't even go pass the LG bootscreen and have to pull battery to restart phone. What i also notice is when installs the ROM, it doesnt extract the file, it just goes locating and updating. weird. never had this problem with Bionix 2, EB and ultimate. Thank you!

I'm coming from an og Verizon Droid and we used to go into he partion menu and I'd wipe the system as well..i always wipe everything a few times b4 i flash any new rom

[Q] Loop problem

Hello all. I'm pretty new and I hope this is the right place to open this thread. I did many searches, tried a lot of ways but i can't fix my problem.
Well the problem is that Everytime that i flash a new rom (in the Restoreway (Found on youtube) And in the .zip way) after installing the rom, and rebooting from xRecovery it start an endless loop and i don't really know how to fix it.
I tried many methods. Like wiping cache, factory reset and aaaall the other wipes.
so, ill ask you guys, please help me cause i can't find a way to flash this thing. :\
thank you so much.

hey dude i suggest you flash back your phone to stock rom
That fixes all the problems in the system and after that you just root it again
and install everything you want but be carefull in what you uninstall!

Try this...
I would suggest GSB ROM 3.6. Been using this rom since since version 2.2 and had very little problems. It is important that you follow Sheds instructions to the letter. It is very fast and basically trouble free. You can get it here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944430

install ruu ?

do a factory rest ..else try stockroms

what i'll do is try to wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache before i flash a new ROM... if it still fails then i will do wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache and factory reset before i flash new ROM...
my last resort will be to flash stock ROM then flash custom ROM again...

[Q] how to wipe?

hi,
i just rooted my mz601 3.2 and i want to install the ics everest.
can someone please let me know how i can wipe the xoom prior the ics flash?
i have cwm recovery installed .
many thanks!!

Boot into recovery you'll find a list of options there. It would also be a good idea to read "Xoom Heaven" posted in the general section first.

Your going to have to Wipe Data and factory Reset, Wipe Cache partition than scroll to advanced and Wipe the Dalvik Cache. After that go to Install zip from SD card.

thanks Guys,
i manage to install the Ics and everything is fine.
what cache / data do i need to wipe when i will flash an updated ics rom?
do i stiil need to wipe all of the above and loose my aps and data again?
thanks!!

I Personally like to do the full wipe thing, just as you did before. Because that's one less thing you don't have to consider when having problems.

Help... CyanogenMod 10 Jellybean 4.1.2

Hi everyone, I tried the rom on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782009 and so far everything is great, I installed GAPPS... I think... I'm kind of a noob :/
Anyway everytime I open the Play Store it just closes in a nano second! And when I open the internet browser or other apps like that it says [Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped]
I used the HTC Sensation 4G AIO kit by Hasoon 2000 v2.0 for everything.
Can anyone please help me

you haven't done full wipe ..before flashing the ROM i think
go to recovery ...and do full wipe
if CWM recovery -> wipe->factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik
if 4EXT recovery ->wipe/format->format everything except sdcard
then flash the ROm and then gaaps
that will do
btw when you do full wipe ..you lose all data of the phone ..apps/messages/call logs etc etc

wipe in TWRP

when i flash a rom i always wipe cache, factory reset, and wipe system. those steps will erase everything from the old rom? any custom kernel? i know it does not do anything to the radio. what else doesnt wipe? what does it wipe? i am soff 1.09

wiping everything in custom recovery does not wipe the kernel ie boot.img. it also does not affect any firmware related things, it only wipes rom related things like cache,data,dalvik,system,sdcard
