Hi There,
I always flashed the kernel right after flash the rom and haven't got any issues.
For a new rom, data factory reset, format /system and format /boot then flash straight away most of the time. For an upgrade, only wipe cache and dalvik cache.
For a kernel it depends, but generally just cache and dalvik cache will be fine.
Wipe cache and Dalvik cache before flashing ROM as well. I do wipes 2 or 3 times..

I always do a double wipe before flashing any new rom and do a dalvik/cache-wipe before flashing a new kernel
For that i use the attached filed. Just flash via recovery (any). Helps to do it a little bit faster like doing in manual
im using weapon rom now, but if i want to flash another rom, can i just flash it with my weapon rom still installed? or what should I do...LG phone is different w viabrant so Im lost...
Reboot into recovery. Make a backup. After its complete wipe data/factory reset go to advanced wipe dalvik. Then flash the rom.

Its recommended that you use the Nullifier to completely wipe the phone down to a clean state. Just be sure that you make a nandtroid backup.

Don't forget about formatting /system in cwm as well.
HTC Flyer: Rooted with S-off, with Revolutionary CMW 4.0.1.4
At the first attempt, I flashed the SU.zip and got the tablet working. But then i decided to flash the Leedroid rom.
Within revolutionary, i wipe the data/cache/davche and then flash the new leedroid rom. There are no issues on flashing the rom and it was successful, however when i reboot.... it is stuck on the HTC logo screen. After 20-30 minutes, the tablet just shuts itself off.
Due to this, i decided the wipe again and install a different rom (CoolHoney3D) however same issue. Then i decided to go back to original SU.zip and that is not working now as it has the same issue.
I downloaded the recovery image for the HTC flyer and try to install it with Scottsrom. No LUCK
I believe i am missing a step in the whole process. please let me know what the problem is. I read all the tutorial to do the recovery but i am a noob and couldnt figure it out. sorry for my bad english..
Thanks!

IF you have done a full wipe then you will have to flash again the rom....you have no information in your device....

I did 3 types of wipe (System/Cache/Dache Cache) then installed the roms again. It said the Rom installed correctly but still got stuck at the HTC screen. Like i said, i installed the original su.zip again and that doesnt work anymore
Another question, do I have to install su.zip first before installing the leedroid rom?
This is what I do when I flash a Rom

I will try that. Should I.....
1. Flash the SU.zip rom first
2. Flash the CoolHoney3D rom
3. Wipe Dalvik cache
4. Reboot
or skip the su.zip rom

Skip the "su.zip". So just flash the "CoolHoney3D" rom, wipe the dalvik cache, then reboot. You could format all partition before flashing the rom if you haven't already done so. In other words:
- Format partitions
- Flash the rom
- Wipe the dalvik cache
- Reboot

appreciate your help but i am still stuck on the HTC screen. I am not sure if i should just do a full recovery. I looked into the RUU but too confusing for me.
Are there any other roms you can download? Maybe the one you have is just corrrupt

no the one i used originally do not work either
That's weird, so do you get an error while flashing? Or it installs with no problem?

You need to do a factory reset, wipe Cache, and dalvik. Then flash the ROM. The Aroma Installer for the ROM also gives you the option to wipe cache and dalvik during the install. I do both. It doesn't hurt anything to do the double wipe.
Just make sure that you DO NOT chose the wipe data option on the opening screen of TRWP. You'll end up with a brick.

thanks
what do you mean by wipe in twrp launch
maybe you talk about wipe data in bootloader menu (with rck etc..)

That's correct. DO NOT SELECT WIPE DATA ON THE FIRST SCREEN OF TWRP RECOVERY.
Already wipe Factory data, successfully flash purity ROM and gaps. After reboot. It stuck on the logo for 20 mins..... .and now still loading....
I already reboot the phone. Re flash the ROM again twice but the same thing happened
It's it normal? ?
Finally it takes over 50 mins but still in the four color circles.... I reboot and restore backup from cwm. (Lucky I backup before flash!!)
I am running on stock rom with franco r16 kernel.

I did not have a issue flashing latest purity clean install. Maybe a bad download/md5...
A bad download can finish installation also ?

did you wipe data/factory reset before flashing? you have to..
First install was a dirty flash but second time already wiped.
Do I need to wipe dalvik cache also ?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Yes if you only did Data...
if you were already on purity than a dirty flash will suffice.
if you were not on purity then you need to perform a full wipe (data, system, dalvik, cache).
EDIT: i had typed full backup above. i obviously meant full wipe.
Thx .
So I need to "wipe data / factory reset" & "wipe dalvik cache " in cwm recovery , then flash new purity rom
Will it erase my files in sd storage ? eg mp3, jpeg movies ?

make a backup. make sure you have a copy of everything you want to save/keep on your computer. full wipe (twrp = data, system, dalvik, cache. cwm = wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format /system). flash rom and gapps.
when you're coming from the stock firmware or a different rom, you have to perform a full wipe before flashing.
Use all yours methods. (Wipe issues) And still not able to boot up. Not the issue of gapps. Coz I only flash the purity rom, and reboot, but still stuck in the four color circle for over 15 mins.
Finally I decided to give up and return to stock ROM.

Same Issue.
OMG! I though I was the only one facing this issue.
This has happend to me exactly as mentioned on the first post.
I was using purity Rom from 08/01 build & with every update I never had any problem But recently I decided to erase everything & do a factory Image procedure which obviously erases everything.
So after factory image I wanted to return to purity Rom & got stuck on booting logo for ever.
I followed the steps exactly the same as mentioned in above post.
