Currently on hybrid with the all dpi tablet mod. I get a little bit of lag playing some games like gta3 some lock ups etc. my phone felt faster on ginger bread. Ill flash a rom based off the official ics.
What gb rom would give me the best performance? maybe hoping for better pen and touch response
When I'm doing a full wipe for this phone I'm backing up data /apps to PC then flashing stock with Odin? Then am I rerooting? Sorry lol I should know this...

Try DaGr8's.
You should not have to re-root, and you should always wipe data, cache, and davlik when installing a ROM. I would suggest the new Unofficial Collective ROM beta 3 using the latest ICS leak with UCLD3, I've been really impressed with it so far, really awesome work.

I would have to agree. The Hybrid one really is sexy but a little more buggy. All those guys are making tremendous (and fast) progress. Cheers to all those guys really!

I'm still on hybrid I mean I love it but it feels like touches aren't accurate enough to use my phone lol. Also my phone has the bottom right screen problem and that makes getting the menu bar without the pen annoying.
I'm also quipped with a glas t
I think I may wait for the next version before flashing

Doesn't a factory reset in CWM wipe all three? I could have sworn it does it automatically.
Does wiping those three or doing a factory reset in cwm wipe sd card files pictures and downloaded files etc.
You guys really wipe three times?

No. Sd card is safe(external and internal), unless you do something wrong. Here's what I do and I've never had issues with a ROM. Factory reset 3 time, wipe cache 3 times, wipe dalvik 3 times, format system 3 times, then flash. Probably extremely redundant but I don't care. It takes a couple more seconds and can't hurt.

I am currently running KaosFroyo v30 and just recently downloaded v31. Should I wipe my phone before installing the latest version of this ROM?
*Note: it does call for a wipe when installing v17 it reads " **THIS IS A WIPE INSTALL** " does that apply to all ROMs post v17?
Edit: I know I should be asking Kaos himself, but I thought I would ask the community first.
If he doesn't say to wipe in between you don't have to... I personally always wipe the dalvik cache before and after I install a new update even if it's not required.
Well, I did what you advised and everything seems to be working out well. Of course I only just recently updated, so tomorrow and Friday will be test days. One thing i have noticed though us that MMS is till not working....
Like Hungry Man said, you don't HAVE to wipe unless the dev says so, but things always seem to be a lot cleaner when you do wipe.
I always recommend wiping.

I always wipe disk and Dalvik.
Only takes a second.
And with Titanium and what not, you don't even have to do anything.
They're making things too easy for us, lol.
You could flash with out wipe then if you have issues beyond known bugs, wipe and reflash.

If you dont have many programs or apps installed then do a wipe but for me it is a pain in the ass setting it all back up again. So, if it is just an update, then I dont wipe. Sometiimes it leaves scratchy ass, sometimes not
I have always wiped updating to a new ROM, mainly because I didn't know any better. The next update I might update after V31 I might just try a flash and see what happens because I'm impatient when reloading everything LOL.
If it is a new completely different ROM then yes I would wipe.
Installing a new ROM, updating or new, is like talking a shyt. You should probably wipe.

most importantly like mom alwayz said , wipe good
Wiping will get rid of all the clingy bits, which isn't always necessary, but I recommend it.

I ended up not wiping (no pun intended) no problems so far. I like some of the little tweaks, but I don't think the track ball lighting is not working

Hello,
First and foremost, I'm loving this rom. I'm a noob and getting my hands dirty figuring all this out.
Now with that said:
When I try to connect to my wifi network it keeps saying authentication error occurred. I have tried everything and the only thing that fixes it is restoring my backup to my stock rom.
Please help!!!!

I will say 90% of the people in here will say it is not the rom. just because theres seems to work. and i tend to agree. what have you tried to fix it? besides going back (to Stock). i have not had any issues with WiFi on Serephim yet, so i can not say what a fix would be. maybe wipe your cache's. when i had that issue on GB i had to reinstall the kernel and boom it worked. but seeing as though we do not have one yet for ICS. i would say wipe and worst case reinstall the from after a very Thurough Wiping Process.

Then if your into flashing right now, just try either the superwipe.
Or this is how i wipe.
I factory default/format usb from inside the rom.
I wipe factory/data from cwm
i wipe cache partition from cwm
i wipe delvik from cwm
then i flash "Rom" and reboot.
this leaves nothing from previous roms and or Gingerbreak roms.
try that and see if it works. if not then i am out of ideas until a kernel source is released.
Ok i will try that and see if it works...
Thank you!!!

Anyone here that is on Team Perfections ICS Rom appdroid just released R2 update today which I flashed as I know many people probably did, everything seems to be fine except I have no camera anymore? when you go to your camera its just a black screen trying to see if anyone else has had this that is on this new build or not? Thanks
Nope its working good for me. Maybe wipe cache and see if that helps?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Well I figured I would try Hyfr ICS ROM from SGS3. Camera is working on it. I am a little more pro Objection just because that has been my fav rom but at this point I was just so happy to be finally running SVOICE and its working beautifully!
Will most likely switch back. I will try what you said although I ALWAYS WIPE Dalvick before ANY flash......are you talking about this cache or just the cache partition itself? Just wondering...
S-voice is working for me on RC2. I always wipe cache partition then Dalvik cache after. I do that three times in that order then flash. After I flash I fix permissions before I reboot and ive never had any problems. Hope that helps!!!

OK Thanks for the help, I tried out OnlyOne rom for a few hours and knew it was time to come back to my Objection Rom. Doing as you said now will let you know how it goes.
Thanks
Edit: Last post I said I went back to Objections ICS rom I actually had more issues with it, dialer didnt work would FC everytime I wiped clean and cleared all caches re flashed it several times was so annoyed. Not appdroid's fault hes doing a great job plenty of people are using that R2 release without issues I just couldnt on my device. But I tried OnlyOne rom one more time and it works FLAWLESSLY now. Couldnt be happier!!
Did you use the darkside wipe or manually? I found that the darkside tool causes problems for a lot of people so I just went back to manual wipe

i was using Saurom ROM at 1st and it worked perfectly for my galaxy note i717(this was my 1st attempt to root my phone and install a new rom), and i saw a better ics rom ("Onlyone" ics rom) at rootmygalaxynote.com, i flashed the new ics rom into my phone and it stuck at the samsung logo. i tried to re-install the ics rom again and same thing happened. So, i go back to re-install my old Saurom ROM. But when the phone get into the main screen, it is extremely laggy and eventually freeze, most of the cases, the phone reboot itself. i m so scare that the phone is not able to read any rom now. and i am new to smart phone, can any Brother and Sister in this Forum can me get through this. i m so

^This.
Sounds like you're not wiping properly between flashings.
And don't worry OP. XDA can help you through just about anything!
When flashing a new rom you should being doing the factory reset/data wipe, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. Then flash the rom zip. I would only download roms from the xda post, and the dev usually posts instructions on how to flash it.
To flash the Only1 ICS rom...you must be coming from an earlier ICS build (UCLD3 or UCLC5). If not then this is what you need to do. Flash the UCLE2 leak thru ODIN first. Let it reboot and let it settle for about 5-10 mins. Then Flash CWM via ODIN again. Once that is done...you are ok to flash the Only1 ICS Rom.
You don't have to be coming from ICS to flash OnlyOne. Truth is most Devs have some sort of wipe built in for their ROMs. OnlyOne Dev does not. All you have to do is wipe data/factory reset and then install the OnlyOne ROM. Unless I am wrong, wiping data also wipes cache. Simple as that.
sounds like paranoid anticipation not letting your dv cache and system files build. Since you said both times Samsung logo... I don't think you waited long enough... Plus use flapps first. Then if you wanna have problems to fix, try other roms... In my opinion.
Btw.. Use our development section to get the original content... Not some link from another website redirecting eventually to us anyway.

I keep reading people suggesting wiping multiple times before flashing a different ROM. Could I get a few people to sound off on the subject? I don't see why you would need to but I am in no way an expert and am hoping to learn something from these responses. Thanks!
Better safe than sorry. Only takes a few seconds.

I've heard both sides of the issue. Some state that you should do it just to make sure to get everything cleaned out in case something was missed the first time. I've also heard that you shouldn't do it, as it puts unnecessary formats on your memory and isn't really needed. I don't wipe multiple times and I don't run into issues.

I don't multiple wipe. But I do wipe multiple areas - system, cache and dalvik every time. Works fine for me.
I was wondering how it could possibly help but I don't know everything for sure

"Full" wipes help with FC and random reboot issues between ROMs. They're not always required, but they do help to ensure "clean" installs and minimal issues when switching ROMs.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
multiple wipes was only necessary for older cwm recovery. *it had a bug and wouldnt wipe properly*
newer cwm and twrp2 you have no need to wipe more then once but if it makes you feel better then go ahead

I found this to make a big difference. When flashing a new rom, make sure you wipe the system before flashing (never used to do this, now I'm finding my fresh installs less buggy). If doing a dirty flash, wipe cache, Dalvik and fix Permissions after.

OK, that's about what I was thinking. I always wipe system, cache, dalvic, and usually do a factory reset. Thanks for the help everyone
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
If you do a factory reset... That wipes the dalvik cache, as that resides on the data partition. That also wipes the cache partition as well.
And any dev worth flashing a Rom from should have it format /system in the script.
All i have done for ages is factory reset and flash.
