I'm sure someone else can answer this better, but I think "Android is upgrading" is shown when Android is rebuilding the Dalvik cache.
This shouldn't happen if you don't wipe dalvik cache before flashing new stuff.
I'm not sure what the consequences of not wiping dalvik cache are...

The Android is upgrading message is normal. Just ignore it. It has nothing to do with a factory reset.

If you can find an app that allows you to wipe the dalvik cache then do that. Your phone will rebuild the dalvik cache on reboot and you might find that the upgrading message disappears (it worked for me when I was experiencing this issue a while back).
Andromizer has a dalvik cache wiping facility - you might need root access though.

Thanks for reply guys problem is solved ...

I think I did replied, and told you either wipe, or reflash after full wipe
I did that and this si said in my first post. I reflashed more than 5 times with full wipe.

Just in case,
Full wipe = formatting cache, system, data, internal storage
And wiping dalvik
Also after that do not restore any thing, test again.

[Q] Going from stock to custom ROM

Hi there first thread for me
I was just wondering, I am on stock Samsung ROM but am thinking of installing either Foxhound or Paranoid Android (possibly CM10 when stable supported version is out)
do I need to do a full wipe or can I just wipe cache partition, dalvik cache and fix permissions?
Also out of Foxhound and Paranoid, which would you guys recommend and why? or would you recommend I wait for CM10?
Thanks for all the help guys, this is a great community!
To each his own. Try both and decide yourself. Always recommended to do a full wipe.

thanks very much for your help, I might just try both as you said and then I can make a decision from there
What actually happens if I didnt do a full wipe and just wiped the caches and fixed the permissions?
Full wipe is recommended but always not necessary. Try installing the Rom without a wipe and if you didn't get any fc then leave it as it is, else wipe it. Also fix permission is not required every time.

If you lucky (occasionally), nothing happens.
If you unlucky (most probably) , unpredictable bugs will annoy you to death

Help with tapatalk on cm9 please...

Ever since the update to version two of tapatalk i have had major issues with it. I cant even open the app. It completely crashes android until i reboot it. Im not sure whether its a CM9 issue or a tapatalk issue. never had a problem like this before. Thought i'd try and uninstall and reinstall it to see if that clears it up and this is what i was met with

Any help greatly appreciated
How did you install cm9? Did you factory reset before?

Yeah factory reset and I've been wiping cache and dalvik cache between each subsequent nightly.

just reflash the rom once without any wipe and see
before that u can do this.
1)reboot to recovery
2)Wipe Cache/Dalvik
3) Do fixpermission
4) reboot to system
and see if issue gets resolved

Multiple wipes between ROMs

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.

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

It probably also comes from people having little idea to what is going on.

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.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
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

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.

[Q] Full Wipe

What does full wipe entail?
I would imagine it involves wiping Cache, and Dalvik Cache, but does it also include a factory reset?
Cache, dalvik cache, system, and factory reset

No problem a proper wipe will solve a lot of issues

I often use Superwipe as well. I have had issues even when wiping all caches and factory reset. Went back and ran superwipe and it fixed me right up

I have used superwipe once... before using SW my backups would take around 2-2.5 minutes after SW they take almost 8 minutes. The SW thread say it will optimize your sd card but it seems like it has done the opposite. Also after running SW it set my PRL back to 25009 when I had flashed it to 56009 So I just do what thicklizard does wipe cache/del cache/factory reset/system
