From CM10.1 to CM10.
Won't that cause any problems? I want to flash back from CM10.1 nightly back to CM10 stable. Do I need to install gapps? If yes, which ones?
Thanks in advance. Ready to rise your thank meter

No that shouldn't cause any problems. The partitionlayout is the same, so i think it will be enough to wipe only data and delvik. If you want to get sure that you have a clean system, additional format system in mounts an storage. If you still have issues or fcs or something then do a new install with full wipe/factory reset.
And yes you have to flash gapps on top. Some say just behind the rom, other say first led phone boot after installation of the rom and then back in recover to flash the gapps. I did always flashed the gapps just behind.
And the gapps are different to 10.1...you can find and download them here:
http://goo.im/gapps in second line there should be the right ones.

i had some questions
1) do i just put the update on my sd card, boot into recovery and flash it?
2) do i also have to flash gapps again?
3) will i have to back up all my apps and settings and start from scratch when flashing a nightly?
4) are there any risks flashing a nightly other than the normal risks associated with flashing an RC version?
5) is the back up feature in rom manager the same thing as a nandroid back up?
6) finally, what is the most current clockwork recovery and how do i update to it?

Just to add a little more info:
2. CM does not include GAPPS in any of the ROMS. If you are coming from any other ROM, you need to do a full wipe and reflash the latest GAPPS.
3. If coming from another ROM, then yes as you will have to do a full wipe. But, once you are on Nightlies or an RC, you can just flash to the latest and all of your apps and settings will be preserved (including GAPPS).

I just flashed the latest nightly from RC1 and my GAPPS weren't there so I had to reinstall. It might have been an isolated incident, but you can just test it by installing the nightly and going back and reinstalling GAPPS if they're not preserved. Everything else will be there though since you don't need a full wipe when installing nightlies.
thanks for the help
to elaborate more on the quesiton about risk, what i meant was will the phone work to make calls and txts? do i have to worry about my alarm going off for no reason, things like that.

yes or no. the phone should work 99.9% of time but there might be bugs like alarm going off for no reason. you take the risk by running pre-final builds. if you see something unexpected, you can always report bugs.
Hi everyone,
Newbie posting here.. I've had my share of flashing Roms a few times (say 4 or 5 times) but i stuck with cm 7.2 when they released the stable mod for the i9000.
Now i see that the cm9 stable mod has been released and i definitely want to try that out however, I'm not sure on how to go about it and I don't want to do anything stupid. Don't get me wrong, i've tried reading around through different sites and forums but all the mix and match methods of flashing and installing has gotten me confused..
My main question is, how do i flash to cm9 from cm 7.2? naturally i have cwm installed and can boot into cwm recovery. Am on the XXJVK baseband with the pawitp kernel. Not sure if i have to donwload new drivers (since the base ROM is going to change)...
Do i just place the zip file for the cm9 mod in the internal sd storage? could you guys help me out and let me know if this process is correct:
1) save zip file in internal storage (both cm9 and gapps)
2) do a nandroid backup
3) boot into recovery
4) wipe data and dalvik cache
5) install the package
6) wipe data and dalvik cache
7) install gapps
8) reboot
Once it boots up, i'm assuming it'll be running cm9 already.. could you guys help me out and let me know if this procedure's correct? sorry for the noob question but i'd rather just make sure and ask you guys first.
thanks in advance guys! cheers and more power!

wipe date
wipe cache
wipe delvik cache
then flash rom nd gapps
wipe cache nd delvik cache again.. good luck..
Best and most reliable way to do this is flashing through stock rom via Odin. Then flashing kernel with CWM Recovery via Odin. And only then flash CM9 via CWM.
thanks for the quick reply guys. will try it out tonight and update this post. hope all goes well.
cheers!

and if u want u can try chimera rom from team passion.. it s combination of cm9 and AOKP.. It s stable and fast..
took me less than 10 minutes to flash to cm9 and it's as snappy as i thought it was. now to fix up everything and check if everything's okay.
so far, wifi and network signal are working fine and dandy. might just have a go at that chimera rom.
I just saw it's a while that CM10 for the GT-7000 (intl) is around. Currently I have CM9 on my Gnote. If I want to update to CM10, is there anything I should be careful with? Or can I just do it like for any other CM9 over CM9 update, i.e.
- reboot into recovery
- full rom backup
- flash new zip file
- select rom update zip file
- flash
- reboot
Thanks!

Flash a safe kernel like hydracore and then you can directly flash cm10 through cwm
You don't need to flash an alternate kernel, you're fine to flash over cm9 kernel straight off. I'd recommend doing a clean install and do full wipes after flashing gapps as dirty installs can cause fc's as well as other lingering problems.
So:
Reboot into recovery, flash paranoid 2.16.
Flash gapps.
Wipe dalvik, cache and data.
Reboot.

Thank you both for your suggestions
Flashed CM10, gapps, didn't do a full wipe yet, so far so good though.

I'm want get the current cm10.1 nightlies to run on my n7000. I'm using cm-10.1-20130511-NIGHTLY-n7000.zip with 20130301 gapps package but the furthest I can get is the welcome screen. Selecting my language will freeze the phone. I've tried re-installing wipe cache, wipe data etc.. even retried to whole install a few times but nothing works. Any ideas? Sucks cos I just finished a mod on my p7510 to display now playing in status bar and want to port it over.
that is an unclean install,
on cm kernel on its recovery format system, data,preload cache an dalvik and reinstall. also make sure you have latest gapps for that version

Heres what I'm doing:
Flash abyss kernell (I have emmc bug and have had to recover from it twice now),
factory reset,
Flash cm10.1 in order to install kernel and recovery a reboot recovery,
Now in cyanogen mod recovery:
wipe cache,
wipe dalvik cache,
wipe system
wipe date,
wipe preload,
re-install cm10.1
install gapps 20130301 (the latest gapps)
what can be going wrong?
thats pretty thorought. I would recommend not abys but cm kernel instead.
tried it with both
Then I dont know. What gapps version are you flashing?
I havent read it being an issue with latest cm, maybe bad download? md5 matches download?
Also try on stock gb rom (for your phones csc), if none of above, if with emmc brick check app some sectors are damaged. Thats what I would do. If damaged, or still weird lags check warranty.
Using the 201301 gapps from goo.im. Downloaded a few times now same issue, its probably my phone as partitions are a little strange from emmc recovery.
Received this phone a month ago, just got around to rooting it yesterday. Root with motochopper went fine. Unlocked the handset with motopocalypse, everything went fine. Installed latest CM10.2 nightly and everything ran fine, even restarted phone and it worked fine. I then realized I forgot to install Gapps, So i went to CWM and installed the Gapps through "install zip from sd card". Now phone will not progress past the bootloader unlocked warning screen. I can restart and put phone into recovery or fastboot no problem but I don't know where to go from here. I tried a factory reset and reinstallation of CM but to no success. I am a bit of a newb when it comes to external programs like RSD Lite and haven't used it. Is there something obvious I'm missing in my progress of trying to fix my phone?
clear cache and dalvik cache under advanced then restart.
if you still loop do the above steps plus data reinstall cm10.2.
if you still loop do all above steps but also format system under mounts be re-install.
if you loop after all that then try a different ROM.
PS what version of gapps did you use.

i can't post outside links yet but on the wiki.cyanogen site in the Gapps section I used the 10.2 20130813 1f51b5cc6370c1f45dc951109b6ce6ed release. I will attempt those steps once i can find a legitimate charger in my house. Phone doesn't accept power unless its on and i need just a bit of juice to boot it up

Here's the official name. Installed cm-10.2-2-130814-NIGHTLY-mb886.zip for the cm and gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip for the GApps, both latest versions I believe

none of the above steps worked unfortunately. Is there a set order of certain things to be mounted and unmounted in the mount section? Such as the system or sd card?

PS are you flashing gapps before first boot up

did you flash gapps before flashing the ROM because the ROM flash will overwrite the gapps.
PS I suggest using zgapps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240652 because they are stripped down which tends to prevent a lot of issues and if you want a 4.3 ROM try skeevydudes PAC ROM it is more stable plus has more features.

Awesome. Pac-Rom already looks better on review. I get to the dl page tho and have a monster list of choices. Which one do I go for?

Thank you for all the help. PACROM is up and running swimmingly, all of the features are there and it is definitely better than CM by itself. Thanks again
