Hi all
When all we have problem when installing a new rom, or system becomes unstable, everbody answers as "make a clean install".
But What is Clean install?
I'm entering recovery mode and doing,
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
wipe cach partition
With Clockwork Recovery mode.
What should i do more ? Is clockwork mode a problem ?
What m I doing wrong ?
Forgive me for my english
I'm kind of wondering about this myself.

I wipe cache and dalvik cache and do a factory reset and format sd-ext..flash the rom and then do a factory reset again.
When you flash a new update of the same rom you don't have to wipe

planning to install cm9.1 on my phone, i rooted my phone and installed cwm 5.0.2.7 i wipe the Wipe data/factory reset and cache sucessfully but i cant wipe dalvik cache, my phone hangs up when i pressed it and goes back to the cmw homescreen..
i installed cwm 5.0.2.6 and had the same result.. what will i do to wipe dalvik cache? is it necessary to wipe it before installing a custom rom?
or should i just follow this install guide from Maclaw

You don't have to wipe dalvik, its wiped in wipe data/factory reset.

Well, dalvik cache wipe is unnecessary if you wipe data.

It is under "advanced" and click on "Wipe Dalvik Cache" then "Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache"
I tend to have troubles with roms when i flash them by how the instruction says. For example I only do a factory data reset for cm10.2 then install. I have problems with it after 6 hours, people say it's smooth and amazing so how do I do a clean install?
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partitions
Wipe dalvik cache
Format system
After that install rom.

Hello guys,
i have a problem with my device. After I installed Hyperdrive Rom it says that the installation was succesful, but when I want to reboot the device it only boots into downloading mode. Before Installation i wiped dalvik cache, cache and data. Any suggestions why? Is the bootloader broken?

Can you boot into recovery? If so, try to do another clean install. Wipe cache, dalvik cache, system, and data. Then flash the ROM and see if that fixes it.
Thread can be closed. A friend helped me by sending me a backup of his rom.
