Hello guys, I would like to know how to update my ROM using dalvik cache? I have Foxhound ROM 0.3 and i would like to install the 0.4. Can anyone help me ?
Hi Mate
You don't update using the Dalvik Cache. The Dalvik Cache is just something that is best to clear before an update.
In order to flash a new ROM there are a few things you need to have set up on your computer and phone and they are well detailed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310
Read the above thread and find out what has already been done. I think your phone will be Bootloader Unlocked and Rooted already. If so flash the latest Clockwork Recovery Mod CWM and then just download the ROM you want and store it on your phone. Once done you will be able to use the above link to easily write it to your phone using CRM and the Flash Update from SD Card Option.
Hope this helps.

Ummm. he doesn't have to read that thread..
Just simply download the ROM
Put it on your phone's storage
Boot into CWR
Wipe Dalvik and Cache
Flash ROM
[OPTIONAL] Flash Kernel (if you used one a custom kernel)

If you flash another rom, will your apps be wiped as well? And if you flash an update from the same rom? Just back-up with Titanium or? Thanks.

Apps are never wiped unless you wipe data/factory. Yes use titanium

Well before flashing the ROM did you create a back up?
And when ever your flashing a ROM your suppose to do a FULL WIPE not just cache and dalvik
no used to doing this on droidx and i would just start from scratch if a flash didnt go through good
i read you cant flash roms with unrevoked is that true ? i can also still get into clockwork recovery should i just try another rom ?
You can flash roms fine with revolutionary and the version of cwm it installs. Try booting to recovery wipe data cache and dalvik cache, reflash ROM and boot to system.

Flash the ROM first do the theme later
Which recovery are you on? If it's TWRP: Get Amon_ra and wipe BOOT: and System: then clear data then just flash rom. It will work. I promise.
Um, you need to have the ROM installed before you can flash a theme for that same ROM.
ALSO, I strongly recomend flashing AmonRA 2.3 to your phone before doing anything else.
If you are going to use Synergy, please follow the directions for partitioning the sd card. Simply copy your sd card stuff onto your computer, format the sdcard then partition it. Then you can copy everything back to the sd card from your puter. It will make life a whole lot easier and faster.

i have a unlocked & rooted galaxy nexus....i flash the rom open kang build 22 & flash the gapps 4.0.4 after i rebooted. i stocked in bootanimation & hang up & appear the google logo, always like that...cannot start.....HELP please....
Wipe and reflash the ROM then Gapps, then boot.
Did you do a full wipe. Wipe factory/data, cache partition and in the advanced menu wipe dalvik cache. Then flash rom and gapps
After you flash the rom, wipe data,cache,dalvik and flash gapps. You cant just flash rom than the 4.0.4 gapps you will get the bootloop.
i already do full wipe & still the same problem?
1. Wipe data
2. Wipe cache
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Flash ROM
5. Flash Gapps
6. Reboot

In addition to doing what Eddy says, re-download the rom and Gapps.

I always flash like that never have a problem. Never reflash after flash. Try to flash another ROM OP to see if it was the ROM or not.

I use CM9 for regular use. ICS + Fast. Maybe you should give it a go. If you wanna go for GB go for EQDKP one.

Factory reset, format /system
Flash rom

+1 :good:
Note to OP: Don't flash Gapps if it is included already in the ROM you installed.
after flash i wipe the cache/dalvik. I think it is the option after you flash in twrp.
Thanks for your answers
Already Rooted and have clockwork recovery installed, anything special I need to do to go from 4.0.4 to Sorcery 5.1 other than this?
Install Instructions:
1) Download Rom and Gapps to your Phone’s Storage drive and boot into recovery
2) Clear davlik cache
3) Wipe data/cache
4) Install your Chosen Team Sourcery Rom
5) Install Gapps
6) Boot into Rom
7) Sign in and wait for all market apps to Restore
8) After market apps have restored Reboot again
9) Enjoy
Beware that your sd card is going to have /0 partition with android 4.2.2. Make sure you updated to the newest recovery before backing up or flashing new rom.

i think twrp is a better rocovery, if you were to switch to it. it is best to do factory reset and wipe system and delete android folder before wiping.
