You can try a cache and dalvik cache wipe without loosing anything or doing any harm... but if you just started having these slow downs, I would bet it is an app you recently installed that is running in the background or misbehaving someway

Hi guys.
I am using cm7.1 right now, and i have problem when i flash new cm 7.2

what kind of wipe?
wipe data/ factory reset?

Make only wipe data/ factory (it's include the wipe dalvik cache) and cache.

It's possible to get bootloop when changing rom's, but I have successfully upgrade form CM 7.1 to 7.2 without wipe.
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

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.
Hi, i am using temasek's CM11 V23, I installed it and it was working well until I install Gsam Battery Monitor app, It asked me to install another app to work with 4.4 so I said yes but after that the phone got stuck on android is upgrading... starting apps...
I tried wiping system, dalvik cache and cache and flash rom and gapps again it didn't work. I also tried wiping only cache and cache and dalvik cache togerher. What should i do?

At opposite, sometimes it can be resolutive (e.g. after flash a custom kernel, to try to solve an unknown problem), but at bootup you've to wait until DK is regenerated for all the applications and system components.
