Hi All
Just installed JB v10 and would like to install a theme but its been a while since I've installed one.
Do I flash it in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik ? Any tips would be appreciated
Also just saw that JB just went from version 10 to 11.
To install do I have to do a factory reset or just wipe the caches since I'm coming from a previous version?
Thanks in advance

Hey guys, i wanted to upgrade my x10 mini pro to froyo android, but i have one problem. It seems that all was installed properly, in settings there even stands android version 2.2.1, but the design of the whole phone is like in android 1.6, tried it with 2 versions of ROM, the same problem. Is it something i did? Sorry for my english
thanks for the answer...
try with reflashing your costum rom. but before that wipe dalvik cache, full wipe (factory reset) and install it
i guess stupid question but...what is reflashing? And how to do it?
in xrecovery select factory reset (full wipe)
and then install custom zip (rom that you want)
reflash means that you install rom again
Hello to everyone! I am having a problem with the Revolution HD Custom Rom.
I am coming from the latest Leomar Rom, I did full wipe (except from the sd card), I installed Revolution HD from zip, but when I am rebooting, it keeps booting on clockwork and not on the OS itself. What is the problem? Any ideas?

Hi Guys,I have got Paranoid Android ROM running on my Galaxy S II my question is,can I flash stock MIUI ICS 2.5.11(newest version) or I have to flash STOCK ICS before flashing MIUI?
Miui direct using cwm.
Don't forget to wipe though
you can flash with complete wipe ...
yes you can
yes you can flash but you need:
wipe data factory
wipe dalvik cahe
wipe cache partitions
I hope this helps you
Hello. So i am on the Omega ROM v5.1 and wanted to confirm in regards to updating the same ROM or flashing a new ROM. After researching the site, I was able to get the information that:
1. Updating same ROM: All that is needed before installing via recovery is a cache wipe and a dalvik cache wipe right? For example updating to Omega v5.1 to v5.2.
2. Flashing different / new rom: You need to wipe cache and dalvik cache AND do a factory reset / data wipe.
Please let me know if I am correct in both 1. and 2. situations. Thank in advance for all your input!!
yes you are right that is what iv always done unless del recommends a full wipe . updating on omega you should be ok just wiping dalvik cache and battery stats iv always done it like that unless changing roms then wipdata factory reset is used as well good luck

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.
