I am currently running the leaked ICS 4.0.3 and sense 3.6 rom. I want to flash Icy-S v10.0. To flash the rom will i have to wipe data, clear cache and dalvik, flash, clear cache and dalvik once more, set up play store, and clear cache and dalvik again. I'm new to rooting and flashing and I'm just confirming

Hey guys, quick question. I am currently running CM7 on my V but it is to unstable for me, too many FC's and reboots. I would like to flash That Ain't Sense ROM, found here:
http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-all-things-root/312747-rom-theme-wait-aint-sense-4-6-2011-a.html
Under the directions, it says:
how to flash:
put gapps and rom on sdcard
wipe the hell out of your phone
flash both and reboot
enjoy

When it says, wipe the hell out of the phone, what specifically do I have to wipe, and at what time during the process? Since I am moving to an entirely new ROM, what do I need to wipe?
P.S. I am running thunderc recovery.
Data, cache, system, dalvik cache and something else i can't remember. If am i not wrong, ROMManager doesn't work on the V, so you can't switch back and forth freely, unless there is another method.

You wanna wipe before flashing a new ROM. I wipe data/cache, then Dalvik cache then flash ROM, then gapps file

Is that all I have to wipe? I made a nandroid backup but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

This should be in Q&A
That's all I wipe. Wiping everything won't hurt though. Just don't do a factory reset through the settings with the phone booted up. Do it through the recovery.

You need to wipe data. Wiping the system doesn't get rid of the data partition.
Try using super wipe?
wipe
yes you need to do a full wipe and use a super wipe tool and then flash rom
Hi Guys,
I've just updated to V2.6 but for some reason I keep getting the following message everytime i boot up and try to access apps menu, also my wallpaper keeps getting misaligned :- " Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped".
Any ideas?? Im thinking of upgrading to the latest Siyah Kernel V3.0
Usual is
A .Wipe Cache
B Wipe Dalvik Cache
C factory reset
D reinstall rom
jje
Ive already wiped the cache and delvik cache, only thing I havent done yet is factory reset, was going to do that last.
Backup.
Full wipe;
Format System
Factory reset
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik (advanced)
Then immediately reflash
Don't restore system apps and data with Titanium etc.

My gps loses connection after like a minute of navigation, it regains it but then it fades in and out. This never happened on stock, any ideas?

No problems here....
I'm running the nightlies (July 25th) and haven't had the same problem. Did you wipe cache & dalvik before flashing? If you were on a different ROM did you wipe Data (3x) and then flash ROM?
I wipe dalvik and cache every nightly. I came from stock and wiped dalvik, cache and factory reset

i know you are supposed to wipe the phone and clear the cache but what is the preferred order here.
reboot to recovery, wipe data, clear dalvik?
i appreciate the info
It doesn't really matter what order you wipe in. I always wipe system, cache and dalvik.

Thanks for the info
Wipe Data/Factory reset is all i do ...never had a problem. I think the Dalvik gets rebuilt after a factory reset so no need to clear it
and if I'm just updating from XXX.rom v3 to v4 I just install right over the top and don't wipe at all
