how to do a full wipe and reinstall stock??
You find the stock ROM you want to install (a google/xda search should help you with that), then you boot into recovery, and wipe data, cache and dalvik, then flash the downloaded ROM. If you don't have recovery, and you just want to reset everything, you can do a factory data reset from Settings > Privacy.
i have already done that
but it dun work
also
it that wipe data = wipe data/ reset factory data in recovery mode?

Many people do just in case since something happens. Just backup everything first!
IMO...

i would. if you don't, you might get stuck in a bootloop. some roms don't require you to (ie...CM updates). but even then, it doesn't hurt to do it after so many CM updates. now, if you don't want to lose your data, i'd recommend using titanium backup...if you haven't already.
Rule of thumb would be as follows:
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory/data reset.
Flash ROM.
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory data/reset.
This should keep you safe. Only takes an extra minute to do.
Some ROM's will wipe for you, but I always do a manual wipe first anyway.
hey thanks alot guys just wasnt sure but i dnt ever see the wipe dalvik option am i missing something
oh and for some reason my camera isnt wrking now that i flashed roms not sure y i folled instructions very well

In CWM select advanced on the main menu and you will see wipe Dalvik there.
When I reboot with any rom my phone and texting stops working and I have no signal and is say com.phone.something has stopped working and makes me force close it and then I have to reflash the rom again to get it to work again any ideas on how to fix this?

Are you doing a factory data/reset, wiping cache and wiping dalvik right before rom flash and immediately after. Doing this should correct your issue. If not, then something is internally wrong.
I use the wipe versions of the rims

You still need to manually wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik then install the rom and immediately wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik again.
Try those steps and see what happens.
wipe dalvik is in the advanced menu of CWM
When full wipe roms came out it was thought that it would take care of the wiping for you, but many have learned the hard way to manually do it as well and 9 times out of 10 it fixes the problems.
I have never had one rom give me a problem and Im sure its because I follow these steps.
*****try "fix permissions" with CWM or Rom Manager also******

Michaelatrix do what Dirtburgler say. I just had the same exactly problem after flash Cherry rom and after I read this thread and follow what Dirtburgler say I don't have the problem anymore.
Edit: My problem was different. My error was to try to restore a SMS backup from Titanium backup. I never do a full restore from Titanium just apps and SMS/MMS/Dialer but I guess that SMS/MMS/Dialer has a different version than Cherry use (I was using 2.3.4 stock).
Hello everybody

I have edited my post and added more info.
So... is this solved?
I guarantee if it isn't it would be by wiping data/factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache and flashing the latest version of a reputable ROM.

I think so as well. If not fixed by that then the only other alternative is a hardware fault.

I have done these three wipes befor flashing the last rom.
But could you suggest me a reputable ROM. and post its link please.
Well it sounds like an .apk problem.
Try: WanamROM for stock or RootBox2.1 if you want to go down the AOKP/CM10 route.
> G S II Android development. I'm sure you can find them yourself.
What is an apk problem?
I am having exactly the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S2. I bought mine at T-mobile, it is a T-mobile branded phone, less then a month ago.
I did a factory reset a couple of times.That did not help.
I have not flashed my phone or anything like that. I do not even know what flashing is!

Try to do one of these solutions for the problem
Settings) application) running services) show cached process) camera) stop and clear data. Test your camera.
or
Settings Select Applications / Manage Apps Select Manage Applications Select All Select Camera and/or Android Camera Select Force Stop and Clear Data Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
or
If that did not work, please do a Google services reset:
Please go to Settings Select Applications Select Manage Applications Select All Select Google Services Framework Select Clear Data. Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
I still have the problem but maybe it will work for you.
I hope it will
Thanks a lot for your advice. Unfortunately it didn't work
What I find weird,is if I clear all data,it says 0.0 kb but after restarting my phone,it says 4.0 kb. Like it didn't cleared any camera data?
I am afraid there isn't anything left for me to do then go to a Samsung servicepoint....

I deleted all the files and directories in storage and then did a factory reset.
After that I can use the camera for a short while.
When I rebooted the phone, the camera goes blank screen again :crying:
So, anyway, this is likely a software problem and not hardware.

Are you quite sure its a software problem?
I've been facing this quite a few months. Problem started a few months after rooting with CF-Root and flashing Cyanogenmod 9 nightly(was working fine for few months). Since then have reflashed kernel (tried many Siyah kernels). It would work a while then become black screen again then again work sometimes.
Flashed Cyanogenmod 10. Would work intermittently now and then.
Finally flashed to stock official ICS ROM. Didn't help. Works for a while after the wipe and again a while if i do factory reset. But problem still persists.
Let me know if you find a solution. I'm really frustrated
I tried CM a while back (WAY back, actually - pre-ICS) for the i717. It wasn't bad but after a while I went back to stock because for me it just 'felt' better. Hard to explain it other than that. In any case, I've been on full stock ever since and was happy with it.
Then Official JB comes out from the carrier and my phone is laggy as all hell and it's gotten to the point of royally pissing me off to the point that I'm considering my options.
My question is this: Do we know the cause of the lag? If so, is it fixable via custom kernel or something similar, or do I need to go to a whole separate ROM to get away from the problem (and are there any in particular that are recommended if that is the case)?

Have you done a factory data reset since the upgrade? That seems to clear up a lot of issues too.

I don't recall, but if I had to venture a guess I'd say probably not. I followed the above thread to the 'slow 4.1.2' and disabled everything I could on that list and did a restart, not sure which one did the trick but now it's nice and speedy.Hoping it stays this quick and isn't just a factor of not a lot built up in memory yet. I'll try a factory reset if it bogs down again.
there could also be some existing apps that continue to run in the background.
you might either go into app manager and force close them and clear their cache individually
OR
maybe reboot phone every day or two. clearing any cache build up. kind of a preventative maintinence thing.
if you ventured new ROM, may I suggest Padawawn.
every phone is a bit different, but I have had the best results ever
4.2.2 ROMs perform better IMO. Good luck

i prefer stock as well and was also experiencing lag until i found the right setup for myphone. started out by debloating. then flashed phasekernel_jb.3 and use setcpu or whatever tuner app you prefer and set governor = fantasy/scheduler = sio/min = 384/max = 1728. all phones are different so you may need to try different settings to find what works for yours. i have not had any lag since.
Here is what worked for me. I had the same issue as you and posted it a while back. This also greatly increased my battery life. I suggest that if you are rooted go ahead and wipe the device - in fact do it twice! You will have to reinstall of you your apps but it got rid of all the lag and almost doubled my battery life.

When you said "wipe", did you mean factory reset or TWRP wipe?
If TWRP, which one you wipe? I tried checking all selection and it wiped even the OS!

You wipe the caches. If you wipe system, it will delete the OS and the data wipe will wipe your data of course.

OK.
I am ready to do the factory reset twice. My Note is rooted and have SuperSU. If I factory reset, wouldn't it remove SuperSU also but NOT TWRP?
If yes, can I just install the SuperSU zip from TWRP? No need to re-root?

You will have full root. I always wipe both caches, system and data when flashing a new ROM, its actually the preferred way.

Wait, I already have stock AT&T JB and rooted. I just want to fix the lag and not installing a new ROM. Do I really need to wipe system and data? Wouldn't that wipe the whole OS?

It can be done by pressing at the same time Volume up and Power buttons until the display lights up, which is when you have to release Power button, while at the same time you should keep pressing the Volume Up button.
If you wish to keep your current ROM DON'T wipe system.

Hello,
I have an Xperia sola with stock ICS rom.
I recently rooted and unlocked the boot loader of my xperia sola.
After that I ran Supercharger v6, Speedy Sola and AC!D Audio.
The camera worked fine before I rooted and unlocked the bootloader (while on ICS and back when I was on GB), but today I noticed that when I try to go to the camera nothing happens. I only hear a blink of the shutter and the screen goes black for a second.
I tried using Cyber Shot Mod but nothing changed, accept now there is no normal Camera app available, only the Cyber shot, which does the same as the stock camera app did (blink sound and black screen for a second).
I tried Flashing it to 6.1.1.B.1.54, nothing happened. Tried setting it back to factory but nothing changed.
I downloaded a camera app from Google Play and I can take photos there, but they are not as good and I would like to have my original camera app, as it was fine for me.
Please help.
Are you still using this rom with those apps installed? If so try a hard reset, if this doenst work try to flash stock ICS or GB rom...

Thank you for trying to help me.
As I wrote I already tried to factory reset it and flashing it back to ICS rom (with flashtool) but no luck.
After I did that it seems I still have root access, CWM is still installed and AC!D Audio is still there.
Do you refer to something different from factory reset when you wrote "hard reset"?
If not, do you have any other suggestions?
Then flash .54 tft again and do a full wipe (data), factory reset ang tick wipe data. You can remove sdcard if you want but everything from phone will be wiped, so bacjup what you want.
