Hi there,
I previously had the CM9 Rom on my phone and now I try to upgrade it to the CM10 rom. Unfortunately, this is not working as expected. I've downloaded the CM10 latest nightly build from the download section on the CyanogenMod10 Website and put it under a folder on my SDCard.
Then, here's the step that i'm following;
Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery.
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Go to “advanced” and “wipe dalvik cache”.
Go to “mounts and storage” and format system and cache.
Go to “install zip from sdcard” > choose zip from sdcard” > select the ROM zip package. When prompted, select “yes” and flash it.
Wipe dalvik cache
Finally, go back to main menu and select “reboot system now”.
I might be missing something at some point, but can't tell what. Any help on the topic?
Regards,
Benkkei

Hi guys. A few months back I got a Nexus S i9023. I got it second-hand and it had already had installed CWMod, Matr1x Kernel, NSCollab Mod and Super User.
As it is my first Android phone, I don't know much about custom ROMs, Kernels and Mods.
Now it has stability problems: it freezes (the screen is black and it doesn't do anything) and I have to take out the battery or in videos, it freezes and reboots. Also, when I connect it to the PC, I see lots of files and I don’t know if they should be there or not.
I'm looking for a few answers on how to make it work. Either to install ICS 4.0.3 or flash back to the original ROM and wait for OTA update. And where can I get these.
What do you recommend doing? And where can I get stable ROMs, kernels or Mods. I don't know what they each do exactly, so, if you have the time, please explain to me what they all are.
Thx a bunch!
The stickies in the general section ... you need to go there for the how to . Basically you need to unlock your bootloader if locked, install a custom recovery and from the recovery flash a stock rom or any other and you'll be set.
You are already unlocked and rooted (since you have this installed CWMod, Matr1x Kernel, NSCollab Mod and Super User). You need to start reading about ROMS in the development section. There are a lot of custom ROMs with ICS that work amazingly. You can also check bedalus work on benchmarking ICS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1481856
I would recommend:
CMv9
Bugless Beast
Codename
Nuhetri
To install them, download ROM, copy to SDCARD, boot into recovery (if phone is shutdown, press volume up + power to get into bootloader). From here, select recovery (using volume+ and volume- to move within options and power button to select).
Once in recovery, make sure you follow instructions from the OP to install ROM. Some ROMs would need a full wipe, others might require Cache and Dalvik, etc.
Erase Cache: 'Wipe cache partition' and confirm with 'Yes - Wipe Cache'
Erase Dalvik: 'Advanced' | 'Wipe Dalvik Cache', confirm
Full Wipe (including Cache and Dalvik):
-Wipe 'Data/factory reset' and confirm
-Go to 'mounts and Storage'
format system
format cache
format data
format boot
To install ROM, go into 'Install Zip from sdcard' | 'Choose Zip from sdcard' | Select .zip file of ROM you decided and select it.
