Do you wipe data,cache and dalvik before flashing?
Try to wipe data,cache and dalvik after you installed a Rom

Does it start normally after you wipe after you flashed?
I would try to flash stock 2.3.5 GB or 4.0.3 ICS with stock recovery and the flash cf root with odin.
Try this and then try flashing some roms
hey guys i wanted to know if i had to wipe everything when there is an update for a rom? or just wipe cache and dalvik?
thanks
It's a case-by-case thing. Sometimes you only need to wipe caches, but others you'll need to do a full wipe. Usually a ROM developer will note what you have to wipe when they post the update, so make sure to check.
You could always just do a nandroid and then try flashing after a cache wipe. If that doesn't work, you can either restore or do a full wipe and reflash the update.

I always factory reset. Wipe cache, then dalvik. Twice in that order. But you can get away with just wiping cache and dalvik. As most will tell you

Note that the MeanROM installation will wipe cache and dalvik cache for you, so no manual wiping is necessary actually.

When I upgraded Stock Rom with Goodies i didn't need to wipe the cache's, smooth upgrade.
Do we need to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing a kernel?

Yeah. It's always recommended you do that.
although some kernels do this cleaning during flashing but I still recommended you do it for every kernel to minimise possibility of any problem

Flashing Stock ICS v4.0.3 and then proceeding to JB would be the best thing IMO

This happens every time I flash any lollipop ROM, it seems to work with Kitkat ROMs though. What should I do? And yes, I wiped dalvik.
Before installing any rom at first flash stock rom.
Go to cwm or any recovery Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache. flash rom & reboot system.

Yes, I know. This isn't the first time I flash a ROM, but this is the first time I get a bootloop even after I wipe dalvik cache.
