No. Just flash over Omega 33.2.
You can download your paid apps from the play store, they will already show as purchased, be sure to backup the data of the games you have been playing otherwise you will have to start the games from the beginning.
No need to wipe, all apps will still be there, you will need to refreeze apps

Thanks ! Does the new 33.3 will work without lag even tho i dont wipe anything or format anything ?
Yes it will work fine even if you don't do wipes, its just an update.

Hi Guys,
I'm new in the android world and exploring around with custom roms. however i want to return back to a stock rom. Now i was wondering how can i do that without loosing any of my data e.g. sms, photos, save game data etc. can i return to stock using the same method going into a custom rom, using CMW just wipe dalvik cache and install rom? and will this also flash my kernel back to stock as well?
After returning to stock i will just root that and flash counter isn't an issue i have purchased Triangle Away
Thanks
You can`t, you can however copy your files to your pc and place them back after the flash.I`am using Appmonster pro to restore apps from sd to restore my apps if i`am not rooted.
You can also flash a stock rom and still keep root with MobileOdin Pro.

If you do a system upgrade it`s best to to a data/factory reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache, you don`t have to but it may result in crashings apps and system components. As fot the sms i don`t know, look in the playstore for an app for that. If you want to stay rooted backup users apps with Titanium Backup. and restore them after the flash, don`t know if texts are restored however.

Hello,
I've got CM10 nightly (20120827) and what about if I flash a more recent version of CM10 or CM9 through recouvert ? Will I loose my applications data ans my playlists ans all others data (SMS...) ?
And if I do a full wipe too ? (Should I do a full wipe ?)
PS : I'm not root (yeah that's odd but that's a bug)
Thanks
I have the I9100 and when updating from one nightly to another no wipes are required. However moving from CM10 to CM9 is a different firmware altogether and so I would suggest full wipes and format system before installing CM9. Please read the instructions in the thread for your phone model before proceeding.

Thank you.
I just flashed it.
But there's a poblem : I can't access to the Play Store. When I open the app, it quits directly...

Hi,
Currently I have a Samsung Galaxy S III with the Android Revolution HD 9.0.0 and I want to upgrade to version 10.0.0 which is the current version. But I dont want to wipe my data to upgrade.
The reason for this is because even though i've backed up everything using titanium backup, I have a layout which I like and lots of other settings.
Is this possible?
Thanks.

Yes you can but if you hit problems you must wipe .
If you are currently running an ICS custom rom and the update is to a JB cumstom rom by the same maker then yes you still need to do a wipe.
But if you did a nandroid backup first before updating you could always try flashing the update without wiping but it could cause problems.
The devs always say to do a full wipe so that there are no problems
Hope this helped

Dont agree other wise we all have wiped phones when JB updates .
>>>>The devs always say to do a full wipe so that there are no problems
Usually they don't say full wipe but wipe cache and wipe dalvik .
Some custom roms will wipe above anyway .
My way on a new rom is to format cache and system in recovery only .
Means i just install on top of my data a new system .
But yes i have Nandroid and TB backup always and yes i am prepared if need be to go back to a stock rom after wiping the lot .
Yes i do flash a lot of roms and no i don't have many problems .

If you want to save your home screen just back up the touchwiz app and restore data to your new rom if you have to wipe

So you say that if I do a backup of all apps in TitaniumBackup and restore it after wipe it'll be ALL the same?
Like I never wiped?
Anyone?

CMIIW, in theory, yes. Although in my experience some apps/games data failed to load. But in most cases it gets the job done after flashing to a new rom, which needed you to wipe everything.
Yes applications go, but the data sometimes ne.Lépe every transition from ICS need to JB, download data again.
And can I restore data only from TitaniumBackup?

Regarding the layout, if you have nova launcher you can export your settings and restore after a flash of a new rom..

Don't have Nova Launcher- didn't like it.
I guess I'll just wipe cache then flash the new version ROM and hope for the best (after backups of course).

You can backup just the apps or apps+data. Therefore you too can restore your data only (if you already have that particular apps installed). Try it mate, titanium backup rules :good:

Yes, I just updated my note 2 n7100 from cm10.2 to cm11. I just wiped cache. and works well.:good:
When we reboot into cwm recovery to install our selected roms, do i need to wipe the data and cache AFTER or BEFORE i install the roms / gapps that i want to? Need help here !
- One more, those who are experience like me when i installed (cm10 port by Psyke) noticed that music app does scan SD card, but then no songs are shown when the app launches, thus leaving it to be blank / left only symbols at on top of the screen . Is really music doesnt work yet for the beta release? thanks for any response

If it's the next version of the current Rom you have, then wiping /data and /cache partitions is not nessesary. If it is an entirely different Rom then you should do a wipe as the phone won't boot properly.
As for your second query, a temporary solution is to use a different media played. I had the same problem with the initial cm10 builds for the galaxy s3.

Data cache partition
Erm ok. But wiping cache partition doesnt really wiping my items in SD card right ? and u said if other roms need to wipe the datas and caches but i need to do it BEFORE or AFTER i install the rom? i mean before we install i need to press the wipe data n cache OR after i install wipe data n cache?

Wiping /data and /cache doesn't wipe your sdcard content. It only wipes your installed apps and its data.
Doing a wipe before and after doesn't matter. But generally we do it after flashing a ROM.

You can restore the backup with out data wiping since cwm recovery wipes /data and /cache before restoring a backup.

Wipe data, cache and dalvik, then reflash the rom. Just batch install apps from the playstore.
