Hi, If a new version of the rom I have (CarbonRom) comes out, and I wanna update, do I still need to full wipe? And another question: what are the advantages of not full wiping before updating? Will it leave my apps? Or settings?
Thanks!

Full wipe is recommended but it is not always needed if u are updating same rom. And yes if u do not wipe then it will retain ur apps only when u are updating the same rom. Not if u flash another rom over the first one.

If I update to the newest gapps by flashing through recovery do I need to wipe anything like cache?

With the new Kernel from 7/05, in the [ROM][Unofficial AOKP]UNi-yuma-PoRN Build40[062912][Aroma], do we need to do a full wipe or can this be flashed over the existing Rom.
I just didn't want to lose all the other apps with the full wipe.

Kernels can be flashed over the rom without a wipe, since they don't change anything in the file system.

Just flash the cwm package, Pete.
No wipe needed.
I will give it a try.

How can I confirm if I am running Yuma? I installed the Kernel and it appears to have installed properly during the procedure but when I check "About Phone" I'm not sure what it is supposed to say.

just as the title says- i flashed to cm9 and now i have no google play store..
should i reflash this rom - or get a different version. ?
You have to flash gapps (google apps). Just like you installed your rom - by recovery flash a zip file.
You can find gapps at CM website.

Some people need the full op before flashing. That's how people mess up there devices.

So maybe I did not get a full copy of the cm9?
The cm9 should of came with everything all in one.. so once I did the flash I would be good

Help please?
Have you tried taking out your SIM card putting it back in and rebooting?
Also did you clean flash, wipe everything before flashing?

first things first. I'm a noob. HAHA. but i'm willing to learn.
I recently rooted my phone by using chainfire's CF-AUTO-ROOT and it has stock recovery on it. Now, I want to install a custom recovery, specifically cwm recovery. How will be able to do this? Do I have to unroot then root again? a step by step info will be appreciated. thanks
First of all find a cwm file for ur device specific to the model u have on google. Flash it with Odin n u will have the recovery.

done finding cwm file that's compatible with my tab
Flashing? not really that well with android terms yet. after clicking "pda" then selecting the cwm file, should I click start? is that what you meant by flashing?
I appreciate your help.
Yeah first go to download mode holding power and volume down button and select the file in the PDA section n just click on start. And wait till pass. appears on the Odin screen. That's it.

I also would like to install cm 10.2. is it stable? I tried searching and I found pac rom and if i'm not mistaken 3 custom roms are installed into 1 rom.
I also would like to ask if it is really necessary to wipe all data before installing a new rom? and if so, would apps like titanium backup pro would be able to backup every single app or information that is in my tab/
Yeah u have to wipe cache and dalvik cache. 10.2 nighties r stable. No issues with me.

Your thread is changing direction but I can't resist commenting anyway. If your tablet is rooted, stock I don't think you will see big benefits to a custom ROM. For other tablets I use like the Kindle, Nook and N7 custom roms can make a huge difference. I'm running CM 10.? Or variants of that on those devices. My most used tablet is this 2.7 with stock ROM. If you must try another ROM, I'd suggest a sick based ROM that is deodexed with sound or visual enhancements. Also, changing to a noon, Touchwiz launcher will make big differences. GOOD LUCK!
P.S. quess what a ROMaholic might be.
