When trying to flash a custom kernel in CWM is there any extra steps that need to take place like when u flash a rom. As in factory wipe or clearing the dalvik cache. I've searched through this forum and the O3D one and haven't found anything. And I'm running doomed froyo if that helps.

I always wipe the dalvik just out of habit, no need to wipe anything else.

Hi devs, today im gonna need some help.
Lets say i wanna flash CM7 Into my OB, these are the steps i have done.
OB SPECS:
2.2.2 v10a GBK ROOTED
1) Download CM7.zip from ROM Manager
2) Reboot into recovery
3) install zip from sd card
4) done!
5) Phone auto reboots and loops at CM7 BOOT Screen
6) Re-flashed From SFT back to v10a
7) Re-installed CWM and recovery
8) This time i downloaded CM .ZIP from the cyanogen's site from my pc and transferred to my phone's sd card
9) Repeats steps 3-5
WHY MUST I GET TROLLED!???
Have you done wipe data and cache?
I think changing from froyo to GB you need to do factory reset...
First make a backup using titanium backup or sth like that, then wipe data, install CM7 from zip, boot and then restore your data from titanium backup.
edit:
nevermind.. "Re-flashed From SFT" sounds like you did.

After you install the ROM, don't leave the recovery and wipe data, cache and dalvik cache...
Then reboot...
So just wipe again after installing the rom??

There already are topics about "best roms" etc, but i think you should try them all and decide on your own which one is best for you
Thanks

I like cm7,zeus ; respectively in descending order
But it's up to you what to choose
Try and keep which you like
But never forgot to back up before changing rom

If you are on safe custom kernel then try wiping cache and dalvik cache in cwmr.

this mainly happens to the app moved to sd card.. normally rebooting fixes the problem temp.

Hi there. Got a problem with my play store saying most apps aren't compatible.
I'm on entropy's test cm10 latest build with gapps 27/07. I've tried all stock dpi's which is my usual trick to correct it (160, 240,320,213) but no luck. I've also tried clearing cache and data on the play store app.
Anyone got a fix?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
try clearing dalvik cache and cache after setting dpi to 240.
Thanks for the tip.
Changed to 160,cleared cache and data of play store app, and play store services, rebooted recovery, cleared cache and dalvik rebooted and it worked.
Thanks very much

Hey guys ,how to uninstall cm11 rom
Sent from my GT-I8190 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
In recovery, wipe system, boot, data, cache and dalvik-cache. Make sure you have another ROM ready to install, otherwise you end up with a phone without an OS.
