Does flashing ROMS drain your battery a lot? Flashed to baked snack this morning now after its all said and done I'm at 41% left. Any advice is appreciated! Still a noob.

Just wondering what it does and when one should do it...

It deletes the file that your battery stats are logged in. Its recommended to wipe anytime you flash a new rom and if your having battery problems.

Ok, can I wipe it even after I've already flashed and booted my rom?

Your stats would be more accurate if you wipe it beforehand, but doing it afterwards is no biggie.
I installed my first rom (MIUI) yesterday and everything went well thanks to alot of reading. I like the way it look but i miss Sense. I did a backup before I flashed it so what is the steps to recover the back up with clockwork??

Go back into recovery > backups> restore > choose the one you want. The names of the backups are based on the date you made the nandroid

Before I do that do I have to wipe anything?

I won't hurt........I always wipe cache and dalvik cache. Your phone will take a few minutes longer to reboot.....that's about the only drawback.

Not necessary, but it wouldn't hurt anything. Calkulin's Format_All.zip wipes Cache, Userdata, Dalvik, System, and a few others that I'm forgetting. If I remember correctly, it's just a script that tells your recovery to wipe all those things. Like I said before, I like to use it if I'm ever changing ROM "brands" (ie going from MIUI to CM7, or From Myn's to CM7, etc.) because the systems are usually significantly different
i believe wiping before doing anything regardless its restoring or flashing a new rom is the way to go with Calkulin's format all and his clear temp. just in case it misses something. but thats just my opinion =)
So guys this is what I need to know
I want to know if the recovery that u use affect the internet of your phone cuz I was using workclokmod and I was running elite3 and the internet speed was pretty good and even the xda app was loading fast just 2 days ago and 2day I flash the ra_ recovery 2.3 and I flash the same Rom but the internet was acting gay and even the xda app was taking 4 ever to load so I want to know if the recovery method affect this or what
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Perhaps just crappy signal as of late, but your recovery has no effect on your internet speeds.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong...but I don't believe the recovery you use has any effect on your internet...you could have had a bad flash...but that's all I can come up with...I'm no dev tho

Was it the same rom version and kernel and all that?...no difference?
Sent from my nightly EVO
Try a full wipe, wipe dalvik separately, then re-flash. Also make sure you're using a good kernel for your rom. I recommend netarchy for Sense or Savaged Zen for AOSP

Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of Titanium Backup. But like I said, try doing a complete wipe of everything, wipe dalvik twice (for good measure), and re-flash. Also try just re-downloading your apps instead of using the backup program.
And ffs, sync with your Google account. It will save you a ****load of time

Flashed cm7 on bosses Inc and then gapps. Got the phone booted then went to file manager to move the radio to SD root then rebooted to hboot and it doesn't see the radio image which is named correctly.
So I can't flash the new radio but the phones ril is working so...
Next, the market will not open... just hangs at the white screen the shuts down and goes to the home screen

I'm having the same problem with Market right now. Just flashed CM7 7.0 final. Tried several other ROMs too. They're all doing the same thing.
Had the wrong gapps flashed lol. Funny thing is had a customer come in with a stock ally doing the same thing and a rooted d2 doing it too lol.
Still doesn't change the cackle I can't flash anything through hboot on this phone
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
I've tried 3 different GAPPS packages, plus Sense ROMs are doing it for me too.
Is your sdcard formatted to fat 32? Necessary to flash via hboot.
Ill have to check that, the one thing I forgot, what is it stock?
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
Before you install your ROM make sure you wipe everything. Make sure you format /system
Doing those 2 things will fix most people's problems.
Also CM7.0 is pretty buggy, I would suggest flashing RC1 or preferably one of the latest nightlies.

FAT, so if you didn't format it, that's your problem.
Sweet thanks, ill have to reformat it via a pc correct? Ill do some searches when I'm not mobile. And yes I did a full wipe. I always wipe...

Okay, so the phone was running awesome. Then he went to hang up on a call and the phone rebooted. It went into a boot loop. So I restored stock nandroid. Then wiped and reinstalled cm7 and all was good. dropped back down to recovery and flashed gapps and the phone boot looped again... I'm baffled.
Running cm7

When upgrading from nightly to nightly, I only do a dalvik wipe which can be done via RM. But when going from different roms, you need to do a full wipe, including system, which can only be done in recovery.
I don't know much about this stuff but what I have experienced is that rom manager sometimes doesn't fully wipe cache and dalvik cache and it makes my phone loop

Ended up downloading cm7.0.3 and a different gapps and all seems well except he is claiming to have SMS issues

Any 3.5 rom I run my apps always disappear anytime I reboot my phone. Any idea why??
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
well i don't know why that would happen a couple of questions
1 Did you wipe data factory reset before you flashed?
what recovery are you using ? clockworks does not wipe correctly Try using Amon RA! that wipes well
3 if you really want to use clockworks mod recovery then just download a super wipe like kings or viruses or calcks
Link to Kings Format all zip multiupload.com/42OXEA7YFY
No credit to me for anything thanks King for creating that format zip file amon ra and anyone else i mentioned in this post just to help a brotha out lol
Try to shut down the boot up or uncheck fastboot in settings. It's a known issue
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
never had that problem
I've never had the problem with apps disappearing.
I'm using amon recovery. And I'm doing full wipes. It only seems to do it with 3.5 roms. Lol
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
well
Like Stated above go into the settings and turn off quick boot it should do the trick
maybe its something wrong with a2sd?
Turning off fastboot didn't help. Still did it.

ok what HW Version do you have find out by going to settings about phone hardware info....
Specifically which 3.5 Rom are you running?
My device is 003, and it does it on literally all the 3.5 roms available right now. Last night I tried shooters e3d rom and it did it, then I tried miks 3d and it still did it, so idk but it seems to be that sense 3.0 and up don't like my phone

When you say apps disappear, do you mean that the apk is missing from the filesystem or that they don't appear in the app drawer, or the Sense launcher? Is it all apps or just ones you installed from the market, or perhaps ones restored from a backup?
All market apps disappear. Even the market disappears

Are you using a2sd or is it included with your rom? If so is your SD card partitioned properly?
I switched my memory card n problem solved
