Question about Cyanogen Rom

I already went through the process of rooting my phone, and am currently running JF 1.5
So to try out the Cyanogen Rom, from my understanding all I have to do is download the zip, rename it "update.zip" and boot it like I did JF?
Is this correct?
Thanks,
Mike

yes that is correct, if it will not get past the android screen or gets pasts it, but goes to black screen then you will need to wipe and reflash the rom, but i wouldn't wipe unless it doesn't work without wiping.

Taken from the FAQ on the release thread:
1. Do I have to wipe?
You shouldn't have to wipe if coming from a JF ADP-based ROM, otherwise, probably. If weird things are happening, try wiping. You can also try the permission fixer script linked above. If you are coming from an HTC-based ROM like Hero or Sapphire, you are going to have to wipe.

So yeah, flash as update.zip, if you have issues, wipe and reflash.

Damn you!! *shakes fist*

I would actually flash the Radio first if you haven't (look at my sig for teh latest version). Then flash the Cyanogen ROM.

Do I have to flash the recovery too?

Do I have to flash the recovery img too?

Nope. But with the CM 1.4 Recovery, you can update using the "any zip" feature...so no more renaming to update.zip etc.....
Makes keeping track of things alot ezier

I second wilnotdie, using the CM 1.4 Recovery will make life a lot easier in the long run. Worth flashing it.

[HELP] Wont install zips. After rooting and installing CM6

Hi everyone,
I just rooted yesterday and installed CM6.2. After trying that rom out for a little I didnt like a few things so I tried Aosp 2.2.1. The home button did not work when I tried that rom so being a noob and not knowing how to fix that I wiped and flashed back to CM6.2.
So settling in with CM6.2 I started adding a few things I added gapps and got the market all that good stuff. Then I went to add the Nexus boot screen . That worked fine. Now I went to upgrade the radio and I would get an error when flashing. So I tried Collins Battery Mod, and when flashing I would also get the same error. Something along the lines of error E:/sdcard/...... status (0) aborted. So I said well , Ill just try to start all over wipe everything and flash the newest Nightlies rom. Well I get the same error . So i tried the older version RC2..... same error. So I said to myself I should try Aosp 2.2.1. again to see if that works because it did before. Well what do you know I get the same error.
E:/sdcard/...... status (0) aborted
My recovery version is RA 1.5.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated guys . Im new to rooting and I dont like the themes that came with CM6.2 so I really want to be able to flash a theme to it, upgrade the radio and battery mod it.
Also CM6.2 did not come with any widgets?? Is that normal? I have no weather widgets, no clock widgets, nothing.
If I have to start all over thats fine because I never really got that far into customizing , but again , I cant because this error.

I'm guessing this is your problem. Try updating it to Darch's unofficial RA-> LINK
(the link goes to my dropbox because Darchs pocketdeveloper's site is down afaik and I don't know where it is on this site )
Download the "RA-Darchstar.img and put it on the root of your sdcard.
Boot up into your rom
Open up terminal emulator and enter the following:
Code:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/RA-Darchstar.img
reboot
Hopefully this will do the trick

This let me flash the battery mod but after rebooting it would boot loop. So I just restored.
Then I tried flashing the newest nightlie and got my usual error aborted... nothing seems to be able to flash still

[Q] Tried to install theme...

Ok I tried to install Generation X Theme to My Galaxy..
I went to Recovery menu and install zip from sdcard...
After installation it said Done.
Then I booted my phone, Samsung Boot animation comed up and after it my phone just froze.
I can still access Recovery Menu or Download Menu.
So is there any way I can fix this?
Ps. I did Factory Reset, it didnt help
Also Im on Darky's ROM
Thanks
EDIT: Fixed, I re-flashed my phone

Did you edit the theme with new images?

Yes, I replaced 2 images. Names were same.
I think i'll reflash my phone with Odin (to Darkys Rom)
Is it okay or is there easier way?

Unless you know what your doing I`d just flash the theme as is, no offence.
Great theme but the way!!

[Q] com.android.phone

Is anyone else having with this file? I have been trying to update my Nightly build of CM7 heroc #12 to 13. I do the wipe and all that and the install is successful but when the phone loads it says com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please restart. I click ok and it does it again over and over again and its pops up right away after i click ok. any suggestions??

You might have a bad download. Redownload and see if that works. Also are you using firerats mod??? If not then try a full wipe as in data,cache,dev-cache and sd-ext.
Yea its me again with the
Modified Hero--

Firerarts is a mod that will resize your data partition. And what recovery are you using??
Yea its me Again With the
Modified Hero-

Your recovery image may be outdated, update your recovery image and then do a wipe on data, cache, and dev-cache and then reboot.

Oh ok and I am using the stock recovery. I tried amon_Ra and clockworkMod but hey both do something wrong cause everytime I do a backup something on my phone doesnt work afterwards or the recovery doesnt work and the Stock one is working perfectly fine.

You're welcome!
For good measures, you should wipe everything and then flash your recovery TWICE, and then reboot into recovery mode -- flashing it twice usually ensures a healthy installation without problems.

This flashable zip overwrites our custom recovery after flashed?
Coz a custom recovery (like TWRP/CWM) prevents me from using a PC,
If these zip flashes also the recovery back to stock, then we cant go back/revert back from Nandroid without a PC..
Just a simple question, but I put mu reasons why.. Heheh.
Thanks by the way for sharing the ROM..

this is safe to flash rom even without "recovery-from-boot" but all in all this Rom does not rewrite your current recovery

Hey, do I just need to flash this by doing a wipe data/factory reset in TWRP---Flash this zip and im good to go...Is this right?

Works exactly as mentioned and it took me about 9 minutes to reboot and maybe another 10 to do CF root. Good job!

Yeap, you can treat It like any other rom, but for safty always do nandbackup of system before.

Hi, thank you for this ROM. Can I flash it over CM11 without factory reset? Is the radio module updated too?

i'm getting battery usage data not available when i check the battery status in notifications

Many thanks
Planning on trying the CM12 kangs. This zip will allow me go from CM12 to stock through a simple flash.

plz do wipe cache (or even factory reset if you come from custom rom), every thing is Ok here

Wiped and install, however after one reboot the back/home buttons are missing and the notification bar isn't showing either.
Did a factory reset and still nothing.

Strange, this is pure stock with Zero modification.... I have no such issue here and think no one niether has this! Did you flash any seperate mod?

I tried the other stock Lollipop floating around and had the same issue. Ended up having to pull the image directly from Google. It's good to go now.
No other mods were flashed.

I had the same issue.
I updated to the latest TWRP, I then factory wiped. cleaned cache, and dalvik.
Then installed this stock rom from scratch with the instructions here and it fixed the issue.
Give it another go...
I am trying to remember the exact details. But this was almost 2 weeks ago, and I might be missing a step?
Hope not...
