Yes you need to wipe cache and dalvik cache from CWM
(Dalvik cache can be wiped from the advanced menu in CWM)
And no you will not lose any data so no need for backup..
Just be sure you dont factory reset by mistake

Did you clear the cache and dalvik cahce after installing the theme or not??
If not try to wipe your cache and dalvik cache right now(no need to install the theme again)

i wipe them only before flashing the zip
is that mean i need to wipe twice for before and after flashing the zip?

Not sure why it's happening
And if you wanna install a custom rom then first upgrade to xxkpq also pls tell me your requirements,as in if you want all the features to work or if you are willing to sacrifice camera and wifi tethering and stuff
And also backup using rom manager is diff from titanium backup.
The rom manager backup is a backup of the whole phone in case flashing goes wrong on the other hand titanium backup is used for backing up apps and the apps data data

thanks mate
btw how to upgrade to xxkpq
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA

.you dure deodex your rom? See in system framework use file explorer. If the odex still there i think you must try deodex once again..try cf root ganes and deodex in cwm..its more easy to do.

Try fix permission in cwm, it can help on fc.

how to deodex in cwm
i saw it in system/framework
all is jar , framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk
no file name with odex
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA

i tried this :
double wipe > fix permission > install zip > double wipe again > fix permission
It's not helping
after booting in , still got FC , than I tried again get into CWM to fix permision with no luck
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA

Check in System/Apps (not in framework )
If you have got two types of file i.e. *.odex and *.apk then you are not deodexed
If you have only *.apk then you are deodexed.
To upgrade to xxkpq just download xxkpq from the development section and follow the guide(also given in development section)

I just installed Unofficial CyanogenMod 7.2.0 RC1 and I got stuck with the logo android with arrow going around it. What should I do?
this is my first time to install this kind of stuffs.

Did u wipe data n cache before installing the rom?
1. Check if the rom is corrupt by extracting on pc. If it extracts d rom is fine. If not download again
2. Wipe data/reset, wipe cache prtition, go to advanced>>format /system and install the rom again

First of all, BE READY WITH UR FLASHABLE ROM.
It's obvious that you've CWM (i.e. ClockWorkMod) Recovery. So,
1. Go to CWM Recovery.
2. Go to "mounts and storage".
3. Select "format /system".
4. Select "Yes format".
NOTE:- Be **CAREFUL** after formating /system, ur phone can't be turned on. If you tried however or accidently pressed "reboot system now" from CWM main menu after formating /system, you'll end up bricking ur device.
So, Bro!! ***BE CAREFUL***!!!
It's not the same as wiping data or cache or dalvik cache. B'coz, after wiping data/cache/dalvik cache, you can normally switch on ur phone(UNLIKE formatting /system).
Also, After flashing Rom successfully, do this:
1. From CWM main menu, select "wipe data/factory reset" & confirm it.
2. Then select "wipe cache partition" & confirm it.
3. Then goto "advanced" and select "wipe dalvik cache" & confirm it.
4. & Then select "reboot system now"...
It may take 5-10 minutes to boot, so have patience...
ENJOY UR NEW ROM!!!

I have flashed the rom by creed and it work. The cyanogen rom is not working for me. :crying:
Why is this?

Bro!! If stock based custom roms work fine for U, then Cyanogenmod will also work. It sometime happens for the 1st time when u move from stock to Cyanogenmod.
So, you've a working phone with creeds(stock based) rom... U should TAKE ITS NANDROID BACKUP so that if some mishap happens in future, U can easily restore that.
If U know how to backup/restore, its fine... But if U don't, then do this:-
1. Switch off ur phone & enter in CWM Recovery.
2. From CWM main menu, goto "backup & restore".
3. Select "backup".
NOTE:- It's expected that you've sufficient storage space on ur sd card...
To restore an existing backup, selct "restore" under "backups & restore" menu and then select a desired back up file.
Now, you've a NANDROID BACKUP, you can give a try to various cyanogenmod roms (official or unofficial... depends on you) & if some wrong happens..., u know what to do... right???

U can also visit www.viotutorials.com for flashing processes along with video demonstration.:thumbup::thumbup:

It's because signature check is "Enabled".You have to boot into clockworkmood then choose "Install zip from sdcard",then "Toggle signature verification".After choosing this,you will see a message"Signature check: Disabled".Now you can choose zip from sdcard and install it.Enjoy it!

Why there are in any custom Rom differences, because if i look at the Alcatel-Upgrade-Tool (OTA), there is only ONE download for BOTH versions, 991 and 991D ?????
Oh...and how can i change the integrated Holo-Launcher with Go launcher? With normal installation (theni have two launchers) the phone is mega slowly :crying:

As for changing Holo Launcher with Go Launcher,i don't know if it's a good ideea(it "eats" a lot of memory),but if you really want to do it,here are the steps:
1.Firstly,you need link2sd installed
2.Install Go Launcher then go to link2sd
3.Search for Holo Launcher,choose it and then "Actions" ->select "Convert to user application" -> Ok
4.Now search Go Launcher and do the same steps,only that you have to choose "Convert to system application"
5.Go to Holo Launcher and uninstall it
6.Reboot your phone
That's it!You have Go Launcher as system application and main launcher!

2.Install Go Launcher then go to link2sd
3.Search for Holo Launcher,choose it and then "Actions" ->select "Convert to user application" -> Ok
4.Now search Go Launcher and do the same steps,only that you have to choose "Convert to system application"
5.Go to Holo Launcher and uninstall it
6.Reboot your phone
That's it!You have Go Launcher as system application and main launcher!
Enjoy it!

I´m very sorry, now i see your answer some days ago,too. Please, do not make stress to you and take your time quietly. Changing the laauncher was very easy, but, as you said, eats a lot of memory, so know i´m using holo again

New problem: I made of course a CWM backup of my phone (Stock ROM rooted with my apps) and never problems with restoring it. But after flashing " gradu CUSTOM ROM v1.0" i decide to wait for "v2 DUAL SIM" and till Gradu2012 has made it, I want to use my old ROM.
So i made the restore with CWM (frst Wipe data/factory reset,and wipe cache partition, of course), but the phone now hangs in a boot-loop and also still has the gradu-boat-animation and Sound, instead of the original one....WHY it´s not possible to recover and how can i repair this- the boot-loop?? (New flashing of V1. is no problem and the phone is booting correct, but i want to use my backup!)
Edit: Now i recover with OTA (One Touch Upgrade Tool) to factory version, root it again and then: no problem to recover with my CWM backup...but no idea, why its not possible after installing the Gradu--ROM????

Wait wait wait...firstly:did you get any error while making bakup before installing gradu CUSTOM ROM ?
And: After wipe factory/cache partition did you select "make backup recovery -> recovery ->yes" ?
For logo image,if it's not working with recovery,you have to flash your logo.img in Flash Tool.
Let me know EXACTLY what doesn't work.

No, and as i said, with the rooted stock Rom installed, the backup can be flashed back without any errors

I don´t know, what you mean- i didn´t made a backup from YOUR ROM. First the phone is in "factory-status", original. Then i´m rooting it, install my apps and change colours, settings, etc. and then I boot into CWM and choose "backup" to make a "home base" with the must-have-apps and settings.
And what ever i do in/with this ROM (i.e. init.d support, install/deinstall apps, changing launcher and so on) i EVER can flash back my backup without errors.
BUT when i flashed YOUR ROM and make the first settings (language, etc.) and then think: "OK, nice, but I need my Dual Sim and therefore want back to my "base", i boot into CWM, then first i choose wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition, then wipe dalvic cache- then i choose "recovery" -> yes and choose my backup file. The recovery process finished without any error, then i choose "reboot system now" and...boooooom....the phone hangs into a boot-loop, the boot-animation and the music starts again and again and again....
Maybe you think: aaah, he has a 991D (Dual Sim), but my ROM is for single Sim....nope, thats nothing to do with it. "Jeffta" made a Custom ROM for Dual Sim very similar to your ROM (two zip files to flash) and when i install this one, test it and want to go back to my base, i have the same failure- bootloop after recover my backup.
At this point there is (for me) no other way than to push the akku out and flash the unrooted original ROM with "Alcatel upgrade tool, root the phone, flash CWM and after all of this, i finally can flash back my "base backup" - the phone then boots normally and after 1 Hour i have back all my apps and settings :crying:
[/QUOTE]For logo image,if it's not working with recovery,you have to flash your logo.img in Flash Tool.[/QUOTE]
While bootloop, i had done this. I flashed back the original logo.img, and after reboot i first see the original picture (this green monster...lol), then starts your bootanimation (like a video) with your music and starts again and again and again......
I hope you understand me/all of this, my english is not so good (Germany).

Ok,i really don't know why is this happening.I installed it in my phone and restore my original backup and i don't have any problem(like boot-loop).Anyway,if your phone is working now with your original rom,wait for the one i will make for 991D.
P.S: For changing the bootanimation,you have to install Root Explorer then acces your system files like this: select "system" file -> "media" -> "bootanimation".There you have to find your original bootanimation.Copy it into your pc,unzip it and check the images you find in file1 and file 2.If it's not your original bootanimation,search it into "custpack" file -> JRD_custres -> "media".Make the same thing like with the other one.If this is your original one,replace the one you have into "system" file with the one you've found in custpack.
Let me know if you succeded.

Yes, my great master, I succeded. Yes, I tried it although I spend hours again to restore first the Alcatel original and then my backup :crying:
BUT its advantage is that I now know a trick to speed up the Alcatel Upgrade: This tool downloads directly from the Alcatel server, every time. So i was looking into OTA Dir and there was a "dowwnload" folder...but empty. Ok, i thought, the files were deleted after recovery. So i made a cup of coffee and do the upgrade procedure again and afterr the download, but before flashing, i copied the download folder to another place. :highfive:
And NOW i only need to copy the saved ffiles into OTA dowwnload directory and the tool is upgrading in about 5 minutes, not in 1-2 hours..jeeeeehaaaa
Ok, and now it´s your turn, i have a brain twister for you. The OTA is downloading 10.100 ".bin" files !!!! (yes, ten thousand and one hundred). Are YOU capable to make sweet two zip files (as by your ROM) with these original bin´s, that would make it very easy to recover. Or is there onother way (maybe for me, too) to make these 2 zip files from my running system or my backup??
:good:

[Q] help needed with rare custom rom (GT-I9010)

hi , being the total rom noob i have some questions
I finally found a ROM for my device , here in the forums.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2117085
Problem is I never succesfully applied a custom rom before.
I found this general guide for flashing custom ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1941028
It's helpfull ,but i don't quite get there.
1) first step of the topic says i need to download files from sammobile and flash em over my phone . I had a look and i think this step is required for the 'clean' install to start from?
2) replace the 3e_recovery file with the existing in System/Bin (download root browser lite from google play store). --> i don't quite get what i need to do here
3) install Rom-manager and install clockworkmod (choose samsung captivate).i find an app called clockworkmod , and find another one which needs to be installed once i start clockworkmod. I succeceed in downloading and selecting the captivate. When i click the 'flash recovery' button i get some error
4) if i reboot in recovery window and try to apply the updates it errors , but this is probably due to 5 mistakes i already did before.
Sorry for this noob question. If my phone would be a popular one i probably would get there with the default guides on youtube and stuff , but right now i don't quite figure it out
Thanks in advance to anyone trying to help me.
