[Q] Order of wipes for Flashing Rom? - AT&T HTC One (M7)

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

Steps for wiping (data/cache)

Im about to flash bionix-v 1.3.1. And im trying to be as thorough as i can without odining back to stock. Just wanted to double check what im doing is right.
I already backed everything up and disabled voodoo (just for safety). Then, i wiped dalvik cache. Next, do i wipe data/factory reset? Then after that, wipe cache partition? Then after that, flash new rom?
Vibrant, Bionix-v 1.3, Voodoo...
It's in the noob guide..
summary:
factory wipe
wipe data
wipe dalvik (advanced)
flash rom
wipe data
wipe dalvik
reboot
wait 10 minutes, reboot
sign into market, wait 5-10, reboot
restore apps, boom.
Mine is similar to above.
Recovery
Factory wipe
Flash rom
Wipe dalvic
Wipe cache
Fix permissions
Reboot
Wait 10-15
Reboot
Enjoy
This process greatly reduced bugs when flashing rom to rom

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

Using CM7 nightly (cm_p500_full-34) stuck in boot loop

Hello, I just rooted, and then tried to flash the latest nightly onto my P500H from Koodo.
Now whenever I boot, it's just stuck in the spinning arrow. At first it resets the boot but after 1 or 2 tries the arrow will just get stuck.
I can get into clockworkmod recovery, but there is error message saying: Bad boot message "recovery".
Now, first time I did this I didn't wipe cache partition, but then I did wipe it but same thing happens.
Any ideas?
Did you wipe Data?

When you change ROM or kernel, you have to wipe, at least, cache and dalvik cache.
Since I wipe data most of the times, I don't know if Gingerbread 2.3.7 can handle data from 2.3.3, so I would recommend you to try first wiping the 2 caches I mentioned then, if unsuccessful, wipe data.
BTW, this 'bad boot' message on recovery is the same to everyone. I'm no technician on the subject, but you can simply ignore it.
No I only wiped cache partition.
should I also do wipe data/factory reset?

First you try wiping only cache and dalvik cache. Then, if you're still stuck, you try wiping data.
