There isn't 100 percent change to have succeed. Anyway LG is hard to brick. I successfully changed my rom but after 2 weeks it got huge problems nd cannot mount partition.
After clearance by NVflash all problems gone.
If you aren't coming from PA rom, and wipe data petition also.

Then you need to do a full wipe.

I understand your hesitance I felt the same way.. untilled I successfully did it.. first one I tried was cm7 official build used the same steps u list but got a boot loop (this is not a brick as u can still access recovery) .. anyway I had to nvflash the rom and it worked and I now change Tom's all the time just to test and mess about with .. its easy and there is plenty of support available ... good luck

I did it recently, with exact same rom and I love it!

And what about the Gapps? I flash them after i flash the rom? I have to do a full wipe again?

Gapps are flashed after the rom without a full wipe in between.

Reflash kernel

Hi there...
1st of all...thank for the existence of the most helping forum for android community. Thank you to all developers.
Last week I've flashed PhilZ kernel ver 2.5 for my GNote N7000 with PDA-DXLR5, I got rooted and it's works great!
For current PhilZ released the newer version which is 2.7. My question is, may I just flash the new kernel directly from ext. sdcard thru recovery mode? Without changing to stock kernel first. Thank you.

Yes, just flash, no need to return to stock.

If I want to unroot, what should I do? Current my N7000 with stock ICS 4.0.4 + Philz kernel.

Flash stock gb to unroot, then update to ics.

or u can just flash the ICS again with pc odin

Ok. If I want the phone back to factory setting I need to downgrade to GB flash using pc odin n do wipe. Then upgrade to ICS (either OTA or flash thru pc odin).
Otherwise, (2) I can flash stock ICS thru pc odin without downgrade to GB but I cant do wipe in ICS is it?
No (2) will maintain setting and it's contents?
Thank you.

1. If you are on a safe kernel, you can do wipe without going back to GB.
2. Never wipe on stock kernel, only on stock safe kernels like Philz.
3. If you do factory wipe, you lose everything. Apps need to be reinstalled. Your "contents" such as images, mp3 and such will remain until such time you format the USB storage.

Factory reset will not erase the internal SD card. u have to manually do it from mounts and storage or format it using PC

Can i install CM10 on 4.0.4 stock rom?

hello .. as i wrote in title .. can i install CM10 on rooted stock ICS rom
i just installed Hydracore 5.4 .. i downloaded the CM10 but i am scared

Yes you can.nd i thnk cm10 has its own kernel.

Go ahead and do it.Just be sure to fullwipe in order to avoid any problems.

As said, full wipe on ics before flashing, then after flashing gapps, clear cache and dalvik, you'll be fine.

I think you need to go into some studies of how you root your phone, before flashing ROMs. Look for NV-flash!!!

I had root my phone already before i flash rom

Did you do it correctly?
delete the cache and dalvik cache then restore defaults/format or somethign then install the .zip or did you just install the zip?

You mean double wipe? I did.
Sent from my LG-P990 using xda app-developers app

If you are on stock rom, first install CWM, then wipe/data ,wipe/cache then install rom, if it is not helped try to format / system/data/ then try it should work.

Ok i will try to format tonight

Problems here...

Hey guys... so, I wanted to install cm9 on my phone. And this is what I did. I flashed Naa ics kernel, and tried to flash minicm9 . I did a full wipe. And it didn't work. The log said something about I16. I don't know.
So,ive read that I should flash minicm 3.0.4 and wipe nothing then flash 3.0.5. And,no luck.
Please guys,I really need help. Please.
Thanks in advance.

Rom Installation aborts?
If yes this may cause by removing build.prop(or localprop), flash another rom (gingerbread recommended) then do wipes & try installing cm9 again.
Report result
#no need to run Ginger rom after installation, remove it in recovery
