[Q] Froyo to CM7 or Gingerbread update first?

I need to upgrade a device running stock froyo(yeah!!)
Do I need to update to any gingerbread rom first before flashing CM7/9/10 as the file format is different or can it be done directly?
P.S. I do not own the device so have little knowledge about this, did try to search first but excuse me if this has been answered before(link please?)

hello dude.. you should first update to android 2.3.4 or android 2.3.6 (gingerbread) and then use it for 1 or 2 hours and let rom settle down..
then install CWM v5 and then download ur cm rom 7/9/10 or whichever you want and flash it..
do these steps to get better performance..
flash gingerbread via odin multiloader..
press thanks if it helped you..

dont forget if its is your first time to cm always format system or else you will get a boot loop

(Q) jellybam 1.3 won't flash

Hi guys. Al thou this is my first post I've been flashing my i9003 for a year or so and i've never had any problems until now.
I have an stock gingerbread installed (XXKPQ) that I flashed using odin, kernel version (2.6.35.7-CL709629 [email protected] #1)
Just so you know, I'm from Argentina, and in order to be able to use 3g, had to keep the modem in I9003LUBKB1 version.
I also flashed cf root (by Skin1980) and I'm using CWM v1.80
I get the latest jellybam (1.3) from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972087
And followed the instructions in the official website : http://www.igio90.net/how-to-install/
Just in case you're too lazy to follow the link here are the instructions:
What to do if you are coming from a Stock, CyanogenMod, MIUI, AOKP and any other custom ROM different from JellyBam
-Download the latest revision of JellyBam ROM for your device
-Place the zip into your internal SDCard
-Boot into CWM recovery (Home+Power+Volume up until samsung logo appear)
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe dalvik cache (Inside advanced tab)
-Install zip from internal SDCard
-Welcome to JellyBam!
(I had to wipe the data first and then put the zip in the sd card because wiping the data was erasing the jellybam zip)
The first time I run the installer it got stuck at 50% while installing sony's media player. So i just started the process again and uncheked sony walkman player, it installed "successfully".
When the phone restarted, it was just the old gingerbread, in the about phone panel, it was all the same that before installing jellybam.
So it obviously didn't installed. I can make calls, send and receive messages, wifi is working fine.
So can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? Do i have to flash a jellybean kernel?, I dont really know hoe to do that but I'm sure there's more than one post around here that explains that process.
If this question has already been posted I'm really sorry, I did search for any post that could help me with this problem but I didn't find any real answer.
I really hope somebody can help me, and sorry for the bad english, I did study the language but it was a long time ago.
Thanks everybody, specially to developers, you're awesome.:good:

I think you should fist flash theJellyBam v1.1.0 alpha4 in order to repartition before flash the v1.3. hope it can help u.

Wiping the data does not affect your Internal/External storage.

First of all thank you for your helpful answer (I clicked the thank you button).
I have cwm version 5 and I have been having the same problem than the OP. I'd like to flash a CM rom before going on to JB 1.3 so my question is, knowing that I currently have an I9003XXKPR 2.3.6 rom, can I flash CM 10 or should I start by a previous version? And, if so, which one?
Thank you for your help.

i think you should start from zero. take a backup of your files, flash a stock rom and then use universal cf root to root your phone. then flash cm 10 alpha 4 and then the jellybam 1.3. that's the way i have flashed mine. i hope it helps.

Good luck! i hope you flash it correctly! just read and follow the instructions in the cm10 thread thoroughly so you can avoid any problems.

All custom rom unofficial, not compile, but directly modify our base cyanogen
It is recommended to start on a CM10 origin
Example A3 to A4
KPE> LF2> CF-LF2
Wipe Data / Factory Reset. (MUST DO THIS STEP)
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash.
Auto rebooted into recovery (if it show error mounting / cache, and cant mount in manually mount and storage, do wipe / cache)
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery
Select the CM10 A4.zip from your SD Card and flash again
Go to Advanced -> Reboot Recovery.
Mounts and Storage -> Format dbdata (you would not find this in CWM so just ignor 6)
8. reboot
You can then flash all based on Unofficial Alpha 4
Just do the basic procedure wipe

hi..u just download rom and place boot.img in it using any archiver then copy it to sd card main and then flash it in recovery by wiping data and dalvik cache

thanks for ur reply.. but could u give the link of the boot. img...

The best and simplest way is simply first flash rom via clockwork mod following the same procedure you follow while flashing any rom.
I.e. wipe data,cache and delvic cache.
Then flash any kernel of you choice like a simple clockwork flashable zip. That is no wipes needed.
Then reboot and you are done bro.

Go to recovery(cwm, twrp, ctr etc),
Wipe dalvic cache,
Choose Install zip from sdcard and select your kernel zip file to flash it,
Now reboot your phone
