Can I downgrade my device(xiao mi3) from 7.0-Lineage OS to CM-13?and without losing any data,can???and how???
You can try but you will have some issues if you keep your data. I think you'll need to wipe. You dont need to wipe the internal, but the data and those stuffs

You need to wipe your apps. You dont need to wipe your pictues, music, etc.

I am curious what information I lose if I wipe Dalvik cache? Will this disrupt my settings or apps? From what I understand, there is a potential performance gain if you do this? Pros?... Cons?
I think you'll lose all your settings.

You don't loose any settings. All it does is a refresh of the system. I would recommend doing it any time you start having FC's or lag. You do have to reboot after doing it
Hey guys, how can I update my n1 from 7.0.2.1
to 7.0.3 without formating my phone?
Thanks
Just flash the rom over the top, make a backup first though.

But do not forget to wipe cache and dalvik-cache.

Not a necessary step, at least in my experience.

You normally only need to format between major revisions, it CM6 to CM7 to CM8. To update to 7.0.3, you just flash the file like normal, and if you are using ROM Manager, just don't select the wipe option.
But as others have said, make sure you backup before you flash. Ideally, you should be able to upgrade without a problem, but unfortunately, we don't always live in an ideal world. Better to be safe than sorry. That way if the flash doesn't work out, you can just revert to your backup.
I want to sell my rooted nook. How do I restore it to virgin root with CM7 without user settings apps & data?

Did you try booting into CWR and wiping the data and cache?

Or easy way go Setting->Privacy->Factory data reset.
Or keep it still and let buyer do everything
How could it be virgin if you've rooted it

Not all firmwares are wipe ones. But I guess that if you flash a new firmware it will clear your settings but not your information / data. Anyway, just take care not to do a wipe in ICS. I'd try to flash a GB firmware and then try a full wipe if the pattern is not cleared....
thanks.
do you mean stock roms do not always wipe my internal storage? do you know which one does, which one doesn't? or is it all by chance?

Go to check development threads. Wipe version will normally only wipe your root partition.
Generally speaking, if you do it right, your internal sdcard (emmc) will not be touched. You'll only lose your user apps, game progresses and system settings, but not your music, movies, photos, documents, etc.
The problem is that if you don't wipe system settings, your phone is still locked.
I think the best way is still try to retrieve your google password.
Hey everyone...
ive already tried to get some quick help already but i really need my phone tonight LOL.
iam running cm9 rom with the latest cm9 stable kernal, now i wanted to flash the hydrocore kernal to see if battery would improve, but it seemed fine but then choppy afew hours later so i changed back to cm9 kernal. Anyway after it rebooted it stayed on the paranoid android bootscreen! where you see the picture loading. i then tried to wipe the cache and dalvik and its still stuck. someone mentioned to do a wipe but i was unsure if he meant to a full wipe? as ive not wiped the factory reset, just the two caches! ive also flashed both kernals back and forth and im still stuck.
Its a simple issue iam sure but could someone help me, im unsure if i should do a full wipe including factory reset or just flash the cm9 rom again. if so can i have instructions step by step...
thank you.
islandmixed, you are on a safe kernel so there is no harm in performing a wipe data/factory reset.
:good:

Do a nandroid backup and then pull all apps from it, without restoring whole backup.

A full wipe worked, it rebooted. since iam weiry about restoring my apps again via mybackup pro i might just check all my apps installed from google and install them one by one and then that way i wont have to worry about anything going wrong. i do have a backup from TB and mybackup but someone said it can cause issues when restoring to a cm9 rom!
Thanks for the help. iam back again at the start HEHE.

Oh I got it now. But why would any stock apps install? If the new rom will have its own stock apps. I didn't even know TB backed up stock apps. That makes it confusing to me

You know when I wiped data would it have wiped off the gapps? I'm sure I had more rom apps with this....hmmmm
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
wipe data is totally wiping what's in your phone.. including what's inside the system/apps, build props and framework...
you may need to flash back your g.apps if you want to get all of them and selectively selecting which to install back(rather than just restoring it from TB)
TB does not restore all what you have made a backup to.

I restored apps with mybackup pro so I know it never backed up gapps so it deffo must have been wiped then? Now that I'm back on my rom can I just flash it in cwm? No wipes or anything. Cheers

Okay then I guess the factory reset only deleted user apps then. I was told it deletes system apps which is why I thought it deleted gapps.
