Modem and radio will not be changed, so you don't need to reflash them.
Since you have to wipe before flashing CM10:
·Contacts should be synced with Google. Just in case, use Go Backup (or another one, but Go Backupis great and free) to backup.
·Pictures/videos will be in the internal/external SD card so they won't be deleted (don't wipe internal/external sd card...).
·SMS/MMS will be lost too. Use Go Backup to backup.
·Apps: Use Go Backup to backup.

Hey,
You can theoretically just flash CM10 over CM9 and keep all your data... I suggest doing a full backup of CM9 first though. As for your modem/Radio, no need to reflash... You can keep the one you'Re running as long as it suits your needs.

Ok, thanks for your answers, i'll try it...
Somebody can tell me which difference there is between 9 and 10 ? It is interesting to upgrade ?

In a i9100, not so much (no hwcomposer so not Project Butter), athough it works great (I use CM10 since first day in i9100).
i9100G has HWcomposer working so everything is smooth and has official nightlies, so I'd say definitely yes. Anyway, just try. If you don't like... flash CM9 back!
Best luck

You said me "Since you have to wipe before flashing cm10"
But which wipe must i do ? data factory, cache partition,...
And some people say that after flashing cm10, must do a wipe to... really necessary ? If yes, which wipe ?
Sorry, i don't understand all these notion of wipe... i read doc about it but...
If somebody could answer me quickly, because i'm downloading cm10 and i would try it... I'm little exciting...
Cordially.

The firsts versions of CM10 required wipe data (factory reset) before and after flashing.
Before flashing, wipe data (factory reset) and cache (I think factory reset also wipes cache), and if you wish, advanced->Wipe dalvik cache.
Later versions don't require wipe after anymore (I don't wipe after flashing anymore), but you lose nothing wiping after flashing if you want to be sure...

Thanks for your quick answer...
Then if i choose "cm-10-20120824-NIGHTLY-i9100g.zip", i must do a "wipe data/factory reset" and a "wipe cache partition", after i install my cm10.zip, and after, if i want, i can do again the same thing "wipe data/factory reset" and a "wipe cache partition".
And normaly, i won't lost data in my sdcard and external sd ?

Just wipe data/factory reset.
And no, you won't lose data in sd memory.
PS: I never ask anyone to press the Thanks button, but after all these answers, if I helped you it would be nice you press the button in my posts (and the other who replied too)

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

Your sign says sent from LG-p500 blah blah...
Did you did it when it still crashed??
What did you flashed recently? A2SD, new frameworks etc, tell me..
Just reflash CM without wipe.
If it still persists, go here and tell everything about what you did.
And, press thanks to me

Well then, first make a backup
then reflash.
With flash of CM you won't lose data.
But if you deleted apps (wich werent usefull for you) they will come back ofcourse..
I had that too once on OpenOptimus, then 1 or 2 apps got deleted and apps wich should be installed by the update werent...
But do as i say:
1) backup
2) reflash
3) works fine. (apps lost -> go to 4)
If it doesn't work fine, go to 5
4) reboot in recovery -> restore -> advanced restore -> restore data
5) Reboot in recovery, wipe everything / factory reset and reflash
Press thanks again
Hope i helped

It's new baseband, but it'll be worth it! thats because of the baseband...
Use this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16446575&postcount=4
Read the whole post before posting!
And if you don't want to go to new baseband, flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1325386
And maybe I got a fix for your CM problem: flash http://www.multiupload.com/4HS29F5HPX before leaving.
Think of wipe dalvik and cache every time you flash!
You have to wipe everything, cache, data and dalvik cache. If you wipe everything and install the rom (after wiping everything) it will work fine.

Usualy works fine unless the developer states otherwise
Sometimes the developer changes baseband or such and other massive changes in wich case you need to do full wipe
Wiping cache and dalvik cache is always a smart move when updating the rom i recommend doing that and after do Fix Permission

A wipe is always recommended, so you don't get any problems in the future. Download Titanium backup to backup your apps
if its an update, then normally its fine to flash the rom over the older one - however i recommend always doing a nand-backup in case something goes wrong

Do u know what wiping the dalvik cache exactly do. K. I know what means wiping. Of course i know what a cache is. But what the hell is a dalvik cache?

Can u help me? Where´s the different between the nandroid-backup and the titanium?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I got a last question. Can u advice me another rom then litening? Maybe a better one?
I rly´ve to say thanks, guys.
Yeah it's fine, Titanium backup just backups all your applications you have installed on your phone, so when you install your ROM, you don't need to go to the Google Play Store and download them again, you can restore the apps using TB it's much easier
Dear community,
I have a SGS2 and i have the PMv2 By foxhound and i noticed some functions werent working properly, like panning while holding screen items and the clock and weather not showing up nor staying in the right place in the lock screen when set in display under settings. Also in kakao talk auto caps or the up button once wont keep caps for first word on.
Ive tried wiping D-Cache and cache but it hasnt helped much. Should i try for a reinstall with CWM?
If so the basics is to wipe both cache - install - reboot - wipe again - reboot and everything should be ok?
Maybe i should reword it.
Should i do a clean wipe (factory wipe right?) clear the cashe and d-cache and reinstall PMv2.0? Will it fix the problems i have? Or is it known issues with the ROM?

Hi. I am using NeatROM lite 4.8. I downloaded the 23 toggles zip file (XWLSW_Stock_23Toggles_BS.zip). How do I install it? My first thought was to just install the zip from the external sd card in Recovery like I did with the ROM, but I thought I'd better ask first, in case that's wrong or I miss a step. Sorry for seeming stupid, but like most beginners, I am afraid of a big screw-up (for beginners, every screw-up seems to be a near-fatal :crying and so need to be very literal and follow precise steps. Later on, I hope I can make the intuitive leaps and guesses like more experienced folks.
I should also ask how to remove or go back to normal NeatROM lite if something goes horribly wrong.

-for install it u have to go in recovery mode and than flash it like a rom (install zip or something similar)
-for return stock you have 2 way:
1) find a .zip that restore the stock theme
2) re-flash rom without wipe

thanks, I'll do this. question about reverting to the stock theme: why would one NOT wipe the cache before reflashing the ROM? Or should one wipe it after the re-install? I wiped the cache and dalvik cache after I originally put on NeatROM.
He means no wipe as in factory reset. All your data is lost if you do this so to not wipe is better for you. To wipe cache and dalv cache you wont loose data. I think one needs to read more then one would be better with one's android device.

Thank you for the clarification because wipe could mean cache wipe, dalvik cache wipe or factory reset. I would only do a factory reset as a last resort.
The toggles are installed now and I really like having them and being able to re-order them. It really amazes me that with all the useful and practical mods people here have done that more are not natively included from Android or the phone manufacturers. It's not like they lack talent or imagination ... is it ?
There are sooo many talented people on xda I wonder why Sam don't offer people jobs to do it for them. If you think that mod is good keep looking there is some amazing mods on here. Most do it for fun!! Sam devs should look at xda and hold there head in shame. :thumbup:
