Everytime I flash cm 7 I get to the screen where it says to touch the android to begin. Then it just keeps rebooting over and over. I then have to do a battery pull and restore back to cm6.
I have tried both RA and clockwork recovery. Did a full wipe everytime. Tried booting all of the versions of cm7. Any other ideas?

You have the right GApps? I've heard, if not, some have gotten boot loops.

Do a full wipe: wipe factory/data, cache, dalvik.
Flash CM7 along with those gapps. You need to wipe the cache and dalvik before you flash the gapps; then reboot.
Not that I doubt the all knowing Roxxorz but is that usually suggested? Don't think I've ever wiped before flashing GApps in the same session .... ?

Did what Roxxorz said and worked perfect. Don't know if wiping between did anything since I did it at the same time as flashing with the new gapps. Thanks guys.

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 =)
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

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.

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

I've been trying to put mazwoz ice or aokp or any other ics rom on my wife's evo but every time I do the phone Says I have no sd card, it ran cm7 for a while with no problems, and if I go to any sense rom (like the backup of synergy i made before trying all this) the sd card is there. I'm not as familiar with the evos progress as my phone is the epic (not touch). Can anyone suggest anything for me???

Installation:
Wipe cache, dalvik, and data
Install rom
Install gapps

Install nandroid backup of synergy (SD card works again)

I wouldn't recommend using cwm it doesn't always wipe correctly. The most used recovery on the evo4g is amon ra recovery which I recommend. But if you decide to stay with cwm try doing factory reset through recovery twice then wipe dalvik cache twice

I usually wipe all three, 3 times each when flashing roms, but I will try out amon ra and go from there. Thx.

Noob question here im sorry. i just got the tmobile gs2. it was already rooted and had cwm, so i got home downloaded infamous excited to flash it. I went to cwm wiped everything flashed and got bootloops. did I do something wrong?
Did you use darkside superwipe before flashing?
And try darkside cache wipe after you flash the rom.
Please give steps on exactly what you did so we can pinpoint where the issue is. I have flashed this rom many times over and never been on a boot loop.

Exactly what I did was, put the rom on my internal sd boot to cwm, the I wiped data, cache and dalvik. Then flashed the rom. It said it was all good so I rebooted and got boot bootloops. It goes to the Samsung screen then shows the infamous boot screen and keeps looping those.

I always have this issue. Wiping everything in cwm solves it for me

Do a nandroid. Install darkside super wipe and darkside cache wipe. Install ur rom ,super wipe, flash rom, let it sit for at least 5 minutes. Reboot and darkside cache wipe. Should boot as supposed to.

Maybe start over. Wipe data, cache, dalvik, format /system, flash rom. Reboot back into recovery and wipe data & cache again. Reboot
I'm assuming you made a backup before flashing this, in the event you need to restore it if this does not work
Its not working again...think need to go back to 9

Which kernel versions have you tried? Those based on 3.0 or 3.4? I believe he may have changed the base for the ROM in this release. Are you flashing the ROM by itself or are you flashing multiple zips at the same time?
