Do you wipe data,cache and dalvik before flashing?
Try to wipe data,cache and dalvik after you installed a Rom

Flashing Stock ICS v4.0.3 and then proceeding to JB would be the best thing IMO

[Q] FlashingDroid, need Wipe?

hello!
Now, my Galaxy S3 is running Cyanogenmod 11 but now I want to flash Flashing Droid S5 v2 on it, but do I need to wipe data/cache (And the rest)
In the ''How To'' they don't mention it but I want to be sure.
For a good flash format..
Data
System
Cache
Dalvik cache
Flash ROM/gapps
Reboot.
This is for any custom ROM be it stock based or aosp. For official use Odin to flash.
Custom=zip=cwm/twrp only
Official=.tar=Odin only

[Q] Downgrade from CM11 to Jelly bean 4.1.2

Hi guys im an xperia s LT26i user and i have an unlocked bootloader. Im currently running cm11 rom by raymanfx. The last time i tried to flash 4.1.2 rom i did NOT wipe system and i ended up getting a bootloop and soft brick. So if i am running cm11 and if i want to downgrade to 4.1.2 do i need to wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache? cache and dalvik is a must but if i wipe system and data will it work?
You should make a full wipe probably everytime you switch your ROM. So:
- factory reset
- wipe dalvik cache
- format system
So your entire system is clear and if this don't work flash latest Stock ROM first and then the ROM you'ld like to run on your phone

Ok so i formatted my whole phone with the suggestions you gave and when i flashed the existenz rom by niaboc79 which is the stock rom it says "E:Error executing updater binary" and "Error flashing zip" and im on TWRP Recovery mod version 2.6.3.0
Ok i fixed it i just had to flash doomlord kernel which gets me back to cwm then flashing again fixed the problem. Thanks alot for your help though it did help me at some stages.
