make a nandroid backup and give it a shot. i tried it on embryo6 (cache wipe,dalvik wipe x3, installed and rebooted) and it borked my audio. no ringtones, no notifications, no media sounds. restored to my backup right before install and audio working fine again.
do a backup for you flash anything!

Yes you can flash it on stock or custom rom, it doesn't matter.
You don't need to wipe any cache or dalvik
But as ctalcant said, always do a backup, better safe than sorry

I'm sorry but i don't know how you accomplished that, I'm on embryo 6 too and it didn't bork my audio.
You must be doing something wrong. My guess would be that you shouldn't have wiped anything. I didn't and it worked perfectly for me

I try it again without the wipes and report back.
Update: installed without stopping any caches/dalvik and everything seems to be running fine. Looks as though wiping the caches did me in.

That's good to hear. Also good to know the cause.

[Q] Flashing a new ROM ?

I currently have CM9 installed on my SGS4G and it's been over a year since I had it and wanted to try something new. After browsing in the dev forum, I decided to try out the SlimBean 4.2.2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2233640
I was wondering will my phone be able to handle it? Its still on ICS 4.0.4. The first instruction says to factory reset/wipe my phone but I don't really want to erase everything. Can I just download the SlimBean rom and flash it while on my CM9? Will it change my ROM to SlimBean or will something really bad happen.

That would be what's called a dirty
flash only used if you are upgradeing your current ROM..
You will have all kinds of problems dirty flashing jellybean from ICS..
Back up your app data with Titanuim Backup and try restoring app data 1 by 1..But don't dirty flash JB from ICS follow the OP's flashing
Instructions.

If I do the factory reset like the instructions then I would have to re-root and reinstall ClockworkRecovery right?

You will still be rooted and have

[Q] About GAPPS

Hey there everyone,
I decided to make a new topic since my other thread had a way other issue. I want to have a custom rom of AOKP on my HTC one x. I've downloaded the file, installed CWM etc. Now my question is what Gapps do I need? Is it rom specific? I know that AOKP runs on android 4.2.2.
Do I need CyanogenMod 10.1.x 4.2.2 Gapps?

Most roms will have a link to the proper Gapps package within OP but yes, if it's a 4.2.2 rom, the cm 4.2.2 gapps should work fine.

I believe you do if you flash the wrong version of GAPPS it can boot loop you.

Ah yes, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2052610 This first linked me to an enormous site with alot of Gapps which confused me. But once I scrolled down to check I could still find the Gapps that were reccomended for that build.
Excuse me for my impatience Carry on!

How do I perform a FULL wipe though?

Reboot into recovery, do a factory reset, wipe /system/, and (optional) wipe the sdcard. Just remember that if you wipe the sdcard you will be wiping the zip files you were going to flash. So, you might want to do that part AFTER installing the Rom and gapps.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

A Full wipe consists of wiping: Cache, dalvik cache, system and factory reset in recovery.
TWRP 2.4+ seems to have issues wiping so if you get error messages or bootloops after doing a full wipe and flashing a new ROM, this could be why. TWRP version of choice is 2.3.3.1
Installing the wrong GAPPS will typically create Force closes when you boot up or try to launch and apps within GAPPS. I've never seen flashing the wrong gapps cause bootloops.

Shiizzzzzz, I flash every gapp package under the sun for every aosp Rom there is for the XL lol... My favorites are midnight gapps... Worked perfect on all roms.

I keep seeing advice like this on the boards, but doesn't the factory reset wipe both /data and /cache? I honestly want to know so I don't give people bad advice.
Regardless, good call on the twrp version.

Yes but redundancy never hurt anyone. Also, when you take into account the issues with both cwm and twrp across multiple devices, it's best to be overly cautious than not cautious enough. Sometimes I wipe it all twice just to ease my mind. If you read on Tweamwin's site, they also say that most ROM installs wipe the system partition so you should never have to wipe it, but I think we all know that's BS.
TWRP, CWM, ROMS, MODS, these are all developed by random people I don't know, who also have no part in the original manufacture/design of my device. Better to be safe than sorry, I always say.

Fair enough. I guess when you are dealing with stuff that could seriously mess up an expensive device a little caution can't hurt.

I agree 100%
I always do double wipes of everything before flashing something. And I wipe cache/dalvik after the flash too. I expect that's the reason I never have issues after booting my phone up.

Firstly its FLASH not FLUSH.!! On which system did you flash the ROM.. If you have flashed on 2nd system you should not wipe data... It will wipe out your other partitions... And did you flash via bmm or cwm??

I used Atrix2BootStrap.apk which seem like CWM based, there was no option 1st system or second system, it was like standard flashing(means normally we flash using Clock world recovery so no 1s or seccond system option appeared).

i think this rom can be install via BMM only... my friend has do like what you do before..... the only you can do is FXZ to stock,root,and then go to play store, install BMM 0.3..... dont install bootstrap.apk again after installing BMM and you will be fine...

I seem to have a similar issue.
First of all although this is my first post on XDA I'm not new to flashing and using Custom Roms infact I have been using CM 10.1 versions switching back and forth between 4.1.2 when I run into trouble.
I decided to give PA a shot and seem to have run into a wall. I flashed PA nokex on system 3 (which previously had CM10.1 - JBX 0.8.1(kernel)).
Before flashing PA on it I destroyed and recreated system, data and cache partitions so I didn't see the need to do wipes on them again. Nevertheless I did dod wipes. Flashed PA nokex, Gapps, wiped dlavik cache and rebooted. (Using BMM ofcourse)
I am stuck at a black screen with the red LED. I would really like to sample PA so any help would be really appreciated.

You need to perform a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) in order to go down, which will wipe everything except your internal storage. You can use Titanium Backup to make a backup of your apps and then restore them after you've flashed the cm-12.0-YNG1TAS2I3 zip. Titanium requires root, so if you don't have root you'll need to flash SuperSU in order to use it.

Why do you wanna downgrade good sir? is there some problems?
im still on kitkat 4.4, and since the new update to COS12.1, i've been considering to upgrade, but still trying to consider the pros & cons here
