Hi , i just downloaded thewhisps cm10 nightly but i cant find anywhere the correct procedure to install it and i cant ask in dev section , do i have to wipe data factory reset after flashing like maclaw´s one ?, before ? wipe dalvik cache ?
thanks
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
"Flash Cyanogenmod 9:
Download and copy the latest CM9 ROM to SD Card
Reboot to Recovery Mode
Select Install zip from sd card
Select Choose zip from sd card
Select the new CM9 rom package
Select Yes - Install update
Wait till the Installation is finish
Now select Wipe data/factory reset
Confirm
Now reboot to phone.
Wait and enjoy CM9 on your Galaxy Gio "
You don't have to wipe dalvik, its wiped in wipe data/factory reset.

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

Hey guys, I'm a little confused on how to use CWM to do a CLEAN install. Say if im using cleanROM and i want to jump into JediX or what ever, do I need to go into Recovery, Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and delvik AND format cache, system, preload, sdcard???
Or all have to do is just wipe data/factory reset and wipe delvik and cache?
My method for a ROM switch like that is wipe cache wipe dalvik then factory reset then wipe cache wipe dalvik.Install ROM wipe cache wipe dalvik then fix permissions.Boot phone up don't touch screen or anything let sit for 10-20 minuntes.Then reboot tweak and enjoy.That method has never done me wrong since 2009 .:thumbup:

There's a lot of posts about a wipe script but there mostly from different phone threads.
I don't see one for the Sprint S3.
Would someone mind creating a wipe script that does
Wipe Factory Reset / Wipe Data (2x)
Wipe System (2x)
Wipe Dalvik Cache (2x)
Wipe Cache (2x)
Wipe Internal SD card ( 1x )
and a 2nd script that only does
Wipe Dalvik Cache ( 2x )
Wipe Cache ( 2x )
I'm using CWM and I don't want to button mash my device to death just to wipe certain categories.
Thankies.

There's no need to wipe anything multiple times. Twrp recovery lets you wipe everything at once

Like i said before, My phone has issues flashing KK AOSP with twrp, I didn't ask if anyone else does or doesn't have this problem.
I just need the wipe script XD

I would still have to navigate through menus to wipe.
xP sorry but I just hate having to do that when I want to fully
clean flash.
With the wipe script I can just use that and I'm one menu away
From flashing ROM.
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.
