[Q] Reinstalling CM - Motorola Droid Bionic

I was running CM 10.1 and updated to CM 2 with the newer gapps. Now I'd like to return to the CM 10.1 because I'm having problems with the 10.2.
What is the correct procedure to do this. I do not have a backup of 10.1. My first try it would not boot but stayed on the animation screen forever. Had to remove the battery to get going again. Thanks in advance
**** Update **** Got it figured out. Disregard this post

[Q] problem updating cm7 nightlys

I recovered back to froyo from cm7 7.0.3 thinking I would give the gingerbread update a try. After seeing what bugs they had on gingerbread I went back fresh to cm7. I have cm7 7.0.3 on it no problem but when I try to put the newest nightly on it it does'nt do anything. It will download the nightly but when I tap it to install it say it will boot into recovery but dose'nt. I've tried it with 86,87 nightlys and it has done the same thing. Any help would be nice. Thanks.
I think any nightly at 82 or beyond requires a new boot loader, or some such, as the Linux kernel has been updated. You might also run into this battery issue with the new kernel. I could be wrong though; haven't had the time to look into it too much.

[Q] Downgrade from cm10 to cm7.2

Hi,
I wish to revert back to cm 7.2 from cm10. I wasn't able to find a conclusive thread which could help with the same. I tried wiping and flashing cm7.2 using CWM but later realized it only flashes update packages. Since cm10 is more updated, nothing happened except a format. Kindly help me with this. I am having lots of trouble with cm10 and its affecting my work

I think the smartest way is get back to a stock GB rom using smartflash so you can root, mount a cwm and flash cm7.2 based on that old bootloader

Every ROM I install is terribly laggy (HD+)

It doesnt matter what ROM I install on my NookHD+. CM-10.1.3 RC, CM10, Nightlies, Every Rom feels like it's an alpha version. I have tried many Rom's and I now know that it isnt the Rom. I think I might just have to delete system files from previous Rom's but I'm kind of a noob and I don't know how , Someone please help me.
I figured it out, I wiped all my files and re-rooted my nook installed cm 10.1.3 RC2

[Q] Just soft bricked my brother's cappy

Hi all.
Greetings from Mexico. So this day I tried to install CM 10.2 to my brother's Captivate. I follow my own set of instructions since I already have CM 10.2 on my Nexus S. I had to install it twice, in order to partition the phone (I don't recall that on Crespo). So it goes into boot but keeps spinning the ring with the blue face in the middle. It's been an hour and still doesn't boot. I tried flashing back to 10.1 or 10.1 experimental with same results, even that it had been working on CM 10.1. Any ideas? I can still use CMW. Thanks in advance.

You should read the full instructions before flashing. You'll have to flash CM7 first.

Thank you for your reply.
The phone already had CM 10.1 since it came out. And yesterday I did a factory reset, clean cache, clean dalvik, flashed CM 11 snapshot M2 and gapps with ART support, and it worked! Phone it's back the way it should. Now I'm just waiting for full ART implementation in future versions... and it seems purring quite well now. Cheers!

Stick with Dalvik VM on Captivate. ART is still experimental, requires more RAM and much better hardware. You won't see any advantages on Captivate; just the opposite - less RAM available for running apps and Android system will start closing inactive processes much sooner.

[Q] In deep trouble, bricked T-mobile GS4.

Hi, I flashed CM 10.2 on my Galaxy S4, and I used titanium backup to restore all my apps, only apps I didn't choose was TouchWiz and the TouchWiz simpler one. And it said I needed to reboot my device for the changes to apply, so I did that. When I rebooted it said everything stopped working. Even the core thing. Screen went black. Then I took out the battery and when I tried to go to my custom recovery, it just skipped the recovery screen and booted into cm again and same thing happened. Everything just stopped working. Help please. Also I am able to get into download mode. I just don't know how to recover from this. I am running 4.3.1 cm nightly, well I was. I don't know if I could count it was 4.3 I am still really new and I just want to reset my phone so I can actually use it. I hope I did not hard brick it. I'm on the verge of crying.
Try flashing it with something equivalent to Sony s ftf flashtool
