I really want to flash a 2.2 Sense rom but for some reason i always get a boot.img error. im using cwm 2.5.0.7 and it usually goes fine until about line 100 something then i get the error. I have tried re downloading, using ra, wiping and formating everything, wipe dalvik, etc and they still dont flash. Anybody know why?
Do you have an ext partition on your SDcard?

No. Could that be the reason why?
If it's the same file could be a bad download. Just need to wipe data, cache, and dalvik. Then flash. Unless you're using firerat. Works fine for me that way.

What did you wipe, and how?

I wiped from recovery wipe data and cache wipe dalvik cache and wipe sd ext.I hope so this is the meathod to wipe
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Yup, that should've done it.
Not sure what is going on, all I can suggest a factory reset, or revert to stock and start again...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
factory reset as in stock recovery and and stock rom?
That's about all I can suggest. You can back up before, and you can always root again...
Or wait for some other advice, I'm sure there's better ideas floating around, and honestly, I've never heard of this issue before...

I know you don't have to wipe to upgrade to a CM nightly, but should I get Google Apps again when prompted to in ClockworkMod?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
If it's the same version that you already have, then there's no point...
If it's a newer version, then go for it...
Latest version can usually be found here:

Thanks a lot. I need my flashing fix so I'm going to start doing nightlies. I just can't wait for final.

Flashed it without the GAPPS and upon rebooting they weren't there. I just downloaded them from the link, flashed, and now I'm setting them up. I guess it deletes all of your login info. No biggie, easy stuff.
Sorry, if you're doing a full wipe, then you will need to reflash the gapps. I seldom wipe on the nightlies...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Oh no I didn't wipe, that's why I thought it was strange. No biggie.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
its a RM shortcoming.. you have to select gapps at that prompt or reboot into recover and manually flash just the ROM.. otherwise your gapps dont survive
Got it!

I was looking at the Cyanogen site, and few people have been commenting on some of the latest nightlies removing the gapps (presumably overwriting the whole system folder).
No biggie, and not a common occurrence...

need help on cwm
hi, im some what new to this and im having some problems with wcm on mytouch 4g... well had the phone working great and i when to try out a new rom called synergy-rc1 i booted in to recovery then wipe data/ factory reset then wiped cache partition and also wipe Dalvik cache then installed from sc card like before everything was going great then restarted the phone after it completed the install and it booted into the synergy rom screen then it sat there for about 10min and it restarted again and it keaps looping over. restarted in to recovery (cwm ) and tried to do a a factery reset and clear cache and this is what i got and i cant even do a restore.
clockworkmod recovery v5.0.2.0
checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
restoring boot image...
restoring system...
Error while formatting /system!
any help would be appreciated [email protected]
probably a corrupt sd partition.
cwm is known top do that..
try formatting your sd card after saving the content to your pc first.
after format move stuffs back
I would go ask this question in the mytouch 4G section you will probably get better answers.
no ext, no MTD, have tried recovery v2.0.0.5 / v3 / v4
Used to flash often without a problem, until some day all roms suddenly fail.
to make sure all data/cache are cleared, all wipe (4 totally) and all format (but sdcard/ext) are done. still i wouldn't work. only asop v0.9.9.2 will do.
could anyone tell me why?
not a soul

At least the only rom you can flash is arguably the best ROM over made for the heroc. Could be worse.

it just stopped at the white screen with HTC logo
i believe i've waited long enough to make sure it's not working.
and there wasn't any error reported while flashing.
Could it be SDcard problem?
I think you're not wiping good enough. Flash caulkins format all then wipe EVERYTHING manually except SD card but NOT excluding sd-ext. Then go to advanced (assuming you're on cw) and wipe dalvik. Then flash caulkins format all one more time. Flash the rom and report back. I'm sure it will work

don't know what your "caulkins" means.
i use cw recovery
4wipe(data/cache/dalvik/battery) + 4format(boot/cache/data/system)
I don't perceive any other wipe/system options.
anyway thanks for reply

Caulkins is a zip that formats the boot, data, system, and cache in one step. It can be.found in the first post of the wildheroc Rom thread.
But your doing what it does already, it just makes it faster really. Still worth a try tho
Also, I remember when people used to have problems flashing stuff, a wipe of the SD card helped. Just back everything up on your computer the wipe it with everything else.
I don't know if they ever figured out why it worked, just that sometimes a bad file get on the card and wont let it boot. Just another suggestion to try.

Hi. I'm new at using custom rom and I have a question regarding updates.
I'd successfully flashed my milestone to miui 1.9.9 rom. So if I'll like to update it to 1.9.16, do I still need to do wipes like what I did when I 1st flashed it? Or do I just apply update?
Thanks

Techincally all you need to do is wipe cache partition and dalvik cache before and after flashing (don't forget flashing the baseband as well!). If you have problems, try a full wipe.

Thanks So doing a wipe on the cache partition and dalvik cache, am I correct to say I don't need to do a titanium backup?

No, you shouldn't have to do a backup. Create one just in case anything goes wrong, or you need to do a full wipe.

go into fastboot and do fastboot erase system -w
just to be 100% sure that everything is gone when you are wiping
use ohsaka superwipe 2 before flashing. following is the xda link. I'm using this Rom at present. it runs very smoothly on G1. The only issue I have is moving apps to ext partitions.
