Im running Tuesday bluray right now. So i factory reset,wipe cache,wipe dalvik,super wipe, kernel cleanser,flash paradox, fix permission, reboot,the usual.
Then it loads up and while waiting it reboots loads up and reboots. So i i wipe and flash again and it immediately rebooted the recovery.so i just went back to bluray.
I tried a third time with a fresh download and it started rebooting and launcher force closing so i went back to bluray again.
Suggestions?

Don't go so overkill. Just flash super wipe then flash the rom, fix permissions and you're good to go.

So you think the two extra wipes are causing the problem or is this just general advice?

Extra wipes don't cause any harm, on the contrary they are recommended to reduce the probably that you will carry things from the previous ROM.
Flash these two bad boys prior to flashing any ROM:
SuperWipe
Kernel Cleanser
Afterwards you should not experience any problems. If the problem persists, consider re-downloading the ROM as it could have been a bad download.

That is what i do for every rom before flashing and this is the only one giving me trouble. I did re download with the same results.

try all that without the last step. U really shouldn't be fixing permissions on a rom that isn't fully installed yet. Also don't flash kernel cleaner, its pointless after darkside wipe.

SORRY man cant do that. I worked really hard to earn this cell phone and wont let it go for free. I bought it for a full price off the contract and don't think will be donating it. I am pretty sure people will be able to help me here. Its not like the phone is dead. Its working except for a few disruptions. Besides people are offering me $450 even in such a condition.
I'm the type that likes to ALWAYS do a clean Rom install by wiping EVERYTHING. I've tried looking through the forums but cannot find a decent answer as to why my Virgin Mobile One V fails to perform a full factory reset immediately after swiping to confirm. All that displays is "make_extf4fs" and "FAILED" highlighted in red at the top of the screen. I tried every troubleshooting step recommended to me but still nothing seems to fix this issue and without a solution I cannot do a clean install of my roms that I normally do. What should I do? If anyone has a reliable solution please do help me out. I would greatly appreciate it.

It has been brought up in a thread here and I've been told not to worry about it and that it wont affect anything but in my opinion it does so i found a full wipe flashable zip that i use along with the other wipes. Let me know if u want and ill upload it and u can have it
Sent from my One V using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
It does affect because after it continued to fail I attempted to flash my Rom anyways and all it did was constantly reboot my phone so I had no choice but to go back to stock and reboot but am stuck with the same TWRP issue so if you can provide me with a wipe flashable zip that will do the same wipe procedure please do. Thank you very much.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Read the log on the screen. It is trying to wipe an sd-ext partition. If you haven't partitioned your SD card, then it will give you that error. It is still performing a full wipe of the other partitions.
Sorry if this is a noob question but this is my first time experiencing this issue so how exactly would I check to see if the sd card is partitioned? I assumed it would automatically be that way after flashing the recovery. It's always been that way up until now.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
It's looking for a second ext partition on your card. This is used by various app2sd scripts (such as link2sd) to fool the phone into thinking the apps are installed on internal phone memory instead the normal android way. If you haven't partitioned it yourself, then don't worry about the error message. It's just letting you know it didn't find the second partition.
Oh OK so besides that a full factory reset is still being made? Because I thought that was the cause of my roms not working properly.

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.

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?

Ok so here is my noobish question.
When flashing themes through recovery, do I have to revert to my nandroid backup every time I want to switch themes, or can I just flash one theme on top of the other?
Dont know if this impacts the answer, but im running frosty 11.6.
Thanks in advance
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Flash the themes over each other with just wiping cache and dalvik. If you come across any issues, dirty flash the ROM you're running to revert back to stock theme.

I dont run the script but i do wipe internal sd data cache system and pre partitions. I have also tried various recoveries and still happens, its somehow kernel related, it always happens with latest perseus, but today it happened with sotmax and neak kernel, once i had it working i reflashed sotmax again with neak (full wipe) and camera failed. Again i can easily fix this by flashin stock or older perseus reboot to system check the camera and then flash what i want
