Since this is the same ROM am I required to wipe/partition or would I be successful by only wiping the dalvik cache and flashing it right over it?

Nope no need to wipe. You are good to upgrade!

So in cwm I forgot to clear the cache and factory reset when I installed a new rom (from 2.3 to 4.0) but I did not get a bootloop. So the phone is working, should I still reinstall and clear it?
No

okay, thanks
I'd still recommend doing a full wipe.
You don't want to get in some sort of trouble in the future and think... Would this issue not occur if I wiped clean?...
(Especially since you're coming from 2.3 to 4.0. I assume it's CM7 to CM9?)

Hi I am a new comers
I just wanna to ask
Do I need to make a full wipe when flashing cm10 official nightly5 from nightly4
Hope someone can answer me
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
If you wish to keep installed apps, just delete cache and dalvik cache (not factory reset) and install nightly 5
But if you do full wipe (including factory reset) and install nightly 5, there is a bit improved performance..
Press THANKS button if helped..
That would mean I only get improvements
If i make a full wipe. Or?

Not exactly. Myabe yes, maybe no. That's the reason we flash the same rom very times.
Wipe just cache, and dalvik cache, if you don't wanna miss your data. You are in a older nightly, there is no big problem.
But, i recomend to do full wipe. Allways.
Hope i've helped.
Hi, I know this is probably a real noobie question, but I have only just recently flashed CM9 and used it for a few days. Now I have a few apps that I have been using a lot, but I would like to move to nightlys. Would I have to use VRWipe or something similar to wipe out the current build I have, or can I flash Nightlies right over my current build without wiping anything? What is the best way to go rom CM9, to CM9 Nightly?

So that means I lose all my apps and start from scratch? Sorry, never did this before on the touchpad.

If you wipe /data you will loose all your apps and settings. otherwise no.

backup
You should however get into the habit of using a backup software. Titanium backup works real well.
I have leaked jb rom lsa I want to flash paranoid android rom. In CWM recovery if I choose clean before flashing new ROM I wont need to do wipe. If it's needed can you give me some tips what steps I should do to always flash a ROM successfully.

I always do a full wipe prior to flashing a new rom to make sure there are absolutely no old configs left.
1: backup
2: factory reset/wipe
3: in advanced -> clear dalvik cache.
3: flash rom and gapps
4: reboot. /done

Good but philz settings does more than wipe. It formats the main 4 partitions for even cleaner install.
Hi all, i have a very booring bug, when i install this rom, and i don't flash other kernel everything is fine.

Did you wipe cache and dalvik before flashing the kernel ?

Do you mount system before flashing?
No but it doesn't matter right?
Because the flashing process do it automatically, otherwise the ROM shouldn't work.
Try fixing permissions in recovery or ROM manager app
