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

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 =)
Hi I've running the Kingdom B1.4 6/23 for a week and works really good for me so far, I just found 4.24 Radios. should I flashed and who I'll do it? I don't want to loose anything I have set up or apps.
Thanks.
If you have good signal, ect, then just stay where you are; if you want to, then download the zip from the radio thread in the dev section, backup, clear cache and dalvik, flash the zip.

If you're partitioned, you need to wipe the sd ext partition.
Not partioned I don't think

You would only lose an address if it were stored on the phone. if your contacts are backed up to google, they'll be there upon sign in. And yes, re-download, do a full wipe, then flash.

If you're currently using CWM, i'd flash the latest version, and then flash the rom.

I know this shouldn't necessarily be in this section but I've already PM'd someone and asked on the original thread for help and have gotten no response yet. I understand people may be busy though too. At any rate, can anyone give and exact instructions on how to flash this ROM? They're not in the ROMs OP so...yeah, I'm lost.

I would do a factory reset in TWRP then go to advanced and wipe system. Flash ROM, flash gapps wipe cache and dalvik one last time the reboot.

Use same fresh install method listed in any of my rom threads... I'm not sure about restoring messages I never do it but system data is usually a no no if you have issues with titanium download super su update your binary with the recovery method then go into titanium preferences and click the back up folder location option and change it from sdcard0 to legacy it will ask you if you want to move your back ups say yes then restart titanium and world will be right again
