Any OTHER rom. In most cases if you upgrading same type of rom no need to full wipe. Just try w/o it, if fail to boot then full wipe.

So i need to do a wipe when instaling froyobread on stock rom?
Sent from my E15i using XDA App

Yes you do. Just search forum there is a lot such questions and answers..

Better do it before.
And back up your apps with Titanium before if you want to keep them.-

[CM7] What have i done wrong??

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

if you have some s6500 then flash xxld2 firmware through odin

then flash cwm by squadzone
boot into cwm
wipe data
flash standalone zip
optionally wipe data
reboot

do you have problems with other zips?
I think you need to update your recovery, as suggested above get latest twrp or cwm

If youre trying to see if its a sd card problem its not,because i have already saved the iodek file in the internal memory and its the same error...i already downloaded rom manager which updated my cwm recovery.but no luck...

Its not a waste to try other Recovery system...Such like TWRP...Also, try unsecure boot

did you flashed a rom or any other zip before?
another way to flash a kernel :
download boot.img from the dev and flash it via fastboot
