[Q] Is JVZ(Odin flash) a non wipe?

Guys I for a sec thought my phone was haunted!!
Steps I followed-
Was on Simplicity(tried from SURFACE too) Rom, did not wipe anything.. just went to download mode from Power menu Options.
Download JVZ base from SamMobile.
Flash via Odin.(YES, repartition was ticked)
Wait for it to reboot.
Then I see 4-5 things giving force close, and the worst part was that all the previous apps including Superuser were still there all forceclosing.. !!!
The same happened all times (4)...
Did anybody face the same problem? Is there a solution or something?

After flashing a new ROM (no matter what ROM) you have to do a Factory Reset and install your Apps from scrach. This is the best solution.
But you try first with few hope to delete Cache and Davlik from CWM Recovery Menu. If it wont work, try factory reset. Back-up your files becouse it will delete them all.

Agree with this, if not you might find alot of your apps will keep force closing

Guys did u understand the situation first of all? What are u telling?
I am telling here that Odin wipes every partition and all apps are removed if u flash a ROM through ODIN but when I flashed JVZ through Odin, it actually didn't wipe anything surprisingly!!
Apps were still there and fc-ing..

Man, calm down a bit, will you?
I've flashed Odin ROMs many times, and I can tell you that not every time you flash (even with repartition enabled) your phone will be completely wiped.
But then, as stated before, you should do a factory reset. Is it so difficult to go to settings>backup and restore>reset factory data? I don't think so.
Bye!

[Q] HELP.. revert from ics back to gingerbread rom..??

Hi guys hope someone can help..
I have been on ics for few months & loving it..
Few days ago I updated my brother-in-law sgs i9000 from Darkys rom xxjw1 > updated to Dark knight rom ics 4.0.4 ...
"he wants to go back to any gingerbread rom stock or custom"..!!
Firstly I made no backup & worst of all I cannot find anything Google search (no guides tutorials info) etc
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP OR DIRECT ME..
It's it a straight simple flash of a GB ROM with full wipe.. Or is it bit more complex from what I have been told..!!

What, google is dead
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/xxjvu/

I thought (read from different forums) that it was a difficult procedure..
Okay can you check steps..
1 Nandroid backup current rom
2 backup apps data settings etc
FULL WIPE
3 factory reset
4 wipe cache
5 wipe dalvik cache
6 format system
7 format cache
8 format data
(I'm unsure about the others like boot, datadata, sd, emmc)
Odin flash stock xxjvu
root firmware flash kernel
Fix permissions
Reboot
Hopefully back on gingerbread
"please do correct me & appreciate any help"

Download stock then flash with odin
For me i back to ics
1.Full wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik for ICS first then go to download mode.
2.Open odin tool.
3.Then flash stock 2.3.3 XWJW5
4.Done.

1. Make backup, if need. Format and cache wipping not requaired, Odin delete old partitions and create neew, if ‘Re-Partition’ checkbox is checked
2. flash GB rom with Odin
3. root, if need

Thanks all that replied & helped..
@Janka63
Have you flashed GB ROM coming from an ICS ROM.. Did Odin flash work okay..??

I've done it with wipe cache and dalvik,
format sd, system, data and dbdata.
Than flashed with Odin a Stock JW1.

I did several times since the 1st time I tried to port ICS in my phone, (the last time was before yesterday), when I was unable to enter recovery and the mobile when looping, I grabbed Odin, flashed it directly (no wipe, anything, but I bet my phone's life for it), rooted it back. Now I'm back for ICS.

wiping is unnecessary for odin roms.
Knowledge is Power. Guard it well.

Thanks.. But can you explain why wiping is unnecessary with Odin (as I believe a wipe will not be done using Odin)..
I have always been advised to do wipe when flashing/switching roms whether it's using Odin, cwm recovery, Heimdall etc etc

[Q] Note doesn't start after ICS-Update

Hi guys,
I just updated my Note from GB 2.3.6 CheckROM with SpeedMod 2.8 to ICS 4.0.3 with CF 5.6 with Mobile Odin Pro...
I didnt checked Wipe Data, only Dalvik Cache..
So after the update my Note doesnt boot properly, after hearing the starting sound nothings happens...
My question is now... can I Wipe Data in CWM (CWM works completely).. or whats about the bricking with CF-Root and Fullwipe etc...
Thanks

Try wipe cache and dalvik cache.

Nothing new happens...
I still havent any boot animation (since months after I installed LiveLogcat etc..)
I always see Galaxy Note logo etc., then I hear the starting sound only...then screen is still black
Edit:
I flashed AbyssNote kernel 4.2 Final RedPill Touch Original Logo...
What now to FullWipe?
Wipe Data, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik?
Or what now...?

I tried Wipe Data with Abyss 4.2 now... still doesnt boot...
Do I need ICS kernel again? Or should it also work with Abyss 4.2?
Can I restore a gingerbread backup without any problems... if... how to restore correctly?

The Nand back will include kernel as well. You can just go in CWM and go to backup and restore and choose restore and choose the restore package from CWM folder in your sdcard. (CWM should point you there automatically).
After restore things should work otherwise there maybe other problems somewhere that need further investigation. cheers.

- flash AbyssKernel 4.2
- REBOOT RECOVERY
- FULL WIPE
- flash any GB or ICS custome rom
- reboot

I restored my gb backup.... it works now as before...
So yesterday I wanted update to ICS....
Dunno what I did wrong...
Mobile Odin Pro with ICS 4.0.3 Rom and CF 5.6 Kernel with Wipe Data and Wipe Dalvik...
This should work?!

[Q] Factory data raset safe?

I flash my n7000 with odin from ics stock back to gingerbread stock.
Now at about phone i have:
Android version:2.3.6
Baseband:N7000XXLA4
Kernel version:2.6.35.7-N7000XXLA6-CL907341 [email protected] #4
Build number:GINGERBREAD.XXLA6
I have lot of force close now.I can`t open even dialer or contacts and i think i factory reset is what i need but i don`t know if is safe.Thx

Yes. It appears you are on a GB kernel so it is safe to reset back to factory.

You are on Gb ROM And factory reset/wipe cache/wipe data all are completely safe.

Meanwhile i rooted phone with cf root and i install Cm9 and gapps.
My phone is stuck on boot screen animation.What can i do?THX

Reboot into cwm recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache. If still problems on reboot factory reset also but that usually solves it.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Since you are on GB ROM it's safe to reset...

help , new to sgm

hey guys today i had a bricked sgm and solved the brick problem and installed GB 2.3.6 and tried to flash CM 7 rom
but after the flashing i had a problem the homescreen wont show so i flashed GB 2.3.6 and now i'm stuck at a bootloop tried to flash the rom again and nothing
plz tell me how to fix this and i help me install a CM 10.1 rom

Probably you might not have wiped data before flashing. Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik Cache before and after flashing.
Also make sure you've have downloaded the correct ROM meant for SGM.
To install CM10 follow this post.

now just flash a four package firmware through odin
it will refresh your data partition
then head to flashing cm7
as the person above me stated you should wipe data before and after flashing rom

Actually you need to wipe data/factory reset from clockworkmod.
It will delete all data on your phone contacts,videos,music so back up the files first

it will not wipe sdcard
so no loss of music and videos etc. Only apps would be lost
