You wiped cache and dalvik, then flashed?

Yes, always end up in a bootloop

Try this:
-boot into your rom, backup all your apps, home screen, ect
-boot into recovery, do a complete wipe, flash your rom, boot into the rom
-boot back into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, then flash kernel, reboot.
You're also flashing an aosp kernel for an aosp rom, and sense kernel on sense rom, not mixing them?

There's one time I manage to flash taimat sbc on sense the only problem it made graphic flickering so I restore back to stock kernel. The was it after that i can't even flash any kernel.

That's your problem right there. Tiamat is an AOSP kernel and you're flashing in on a SENSE rom; its not gona work. If you want to you use Tiamat, you need to be on an AOSP rom, like CM7, Evervol, Salvage Mod, ect. For Sense, try the netarchy kernels.

Netarchy tried that too same problem.

What recovery are you using? It sounds like something isn't getting properly wiped. When you flashed to a new rom, did you happen to try using Calkulin's Format all.zip? It certainly wouldn't hurt. Then get the new rom flashed and booted, then try wiping cache and dalvik cache again, then reflash your kernel. What kernel are you trying to use and on which rom? Perhaps the kernel has major undervolting and you're phone doesn't agree with it, which is not uncommon. There are options with netarchy kernels to use more, less, or no undervolting. With aosp kernels, there are some scripts you can use to change/alter the undervolting, to adjust it to where your phone is stable. So I guess that it's either because something isn't wiping properly, or because your phone doesn't like to be undervolted, or doesn't play nice with HAVS.

Flashing a Kernel

Yesterday I installed a ROM for the first time. Today I would like to try a different Kernel. How do I just install JUST the kernel ?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Kernels are flashed same way you flashed the ROM. Put it on your SD card, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvix x2, and install from SD card.
will i have to install the rom also all over again ?
No. You wont have to reinstall the ROM.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
perhaps this will be of help. this is for CM6, but the steps are the same for Sense ROMs.

Make sure that if u have a sense rom, u have a sense kernel.. if u ever get bootloops just reflash the rom and the kernel will be replaced

[Q] What I'm doin wrong????????

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

Problems with Inc cm7

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
Sent from my ThunderBolt using XDA App
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.

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.

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

Yeah, just flash the kernel in recovery and wipe both caches and fix permissions before and after flashing the kernel.

Random hot boots

Well as a few days after flashing wicked rom, I keep getting random HOT boots, no boot animation, and reboots behave the same as hot boots, no animation, just black screen then its on. I reflashed rom, kernel, but did not wipe yet. I may soon, but ill wait until I get a better answer. Also I did not overclock or undervolt.

Sounds like a kernel issue. Have you tried using an alternate kernel? And always wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing a kernel

What rom did you have before? You're saying that you didn't wipe the first time you flashed Wicked? Always wipe before reporting issues that nobody else is reporting. More than likely that is your reason.
Did you flash a different kernel? If so, did you wipe both caches before flashing?
