When you switch from CM9 (ICS) to CM10 you should do a full wipe. Really, when you flash any ROM you should do a full wipe; but especially if you're jumping from JB to ICS or vice versa. And I'm assuming you got back into recovery, but if not: turn phone off. Hold volume down + power until the factory reset screen comes on. Press power button twice and instead of performing a factory reset, you should be taken into CWM recovery.
Thank YOU!

i would like to try this out...so i do a complete wipe? and i didn't realize liquid nitro was ics. i really like the funtion of jb, but the battery sucks real bad. i read through, what i thought was detailed. anyway, when i make a complete change in the rom, i need to do a wipe?

a rom is replacing the /system partition, right? so why would i need to wipe? i went from cm 9 to cm 10 quite easily. i really don't understand. i mean, i thought i did. partition: system, data, recovery, boot. right?

Yes, ROM replaces /system, but it doesn't format before the install. Kinda like if you install a version of Linux on top of a different version without formatting you'll still have some junk floating around from the previous install. I use TWRP and before each new flash I wipe /system, /data, and /cache.... dalvik, from what I've noticed seems to not really be needed to wipe: every time I tried it it tells me it doesn't exist. I think in CWM there's an option to do full wipe, not sure; but I'd use that if it is.
Liquid Nitro is stock/rooted/debloated ICS with a few other goodies thrown in, then you have CM9 (and it's variants) which are ICS based. As far as jellybean goes, the P93x only has CM10 and it's numerous variants. You can, without too much hassle, perform a dirty flash over CM10 and it's variants, but you're just asking for bootloops and whatnot trying a dirty flash from ICS to JB based. Again, I'm not advocating to dirty flash unless you're just updating from a previous build of the same ROM, but it's less likely to cause problems when you at least stay within the same android version.

It does format actually. Really the only reason to format system manually is if you want to prevent it from backing up and restoring your Gapps. Doesn't hurt anything though.

I tried to flash HONO Full Throttle V2, cleared cache, dalvik cache.
Now my phone keeps rebotting loopping. I tried to access ROM manager but it reboots before it can do it. I tried accessing CWM recovery Power+Vdown and it only shows the master reset screen...
Do i have to unbrick?
Any help is appreciated, thank you
When that happened to me, with a different ROM, I went ahead and pressed power again at that screen and it continued to CWM, didn't wipe/reset my phone.

That is what you are supposed to see. Press power button twice to "accept" the factory reset. It won't actually reset anything -- instead it will boot directly to CWM.
Oh, okay thanks so much RealyPssd and Drumist! Got a bit scared for a second there. Was able to flash back
Edit: I might have found the problem:
I tried installing HONO's P930 CM9 Kernel V5 and it did the same thing but worse, it didnt even let me past the CM boot guy.
Went through the same thing
I tried flashing HO!NO!'s CM9 Full Throttle this morning and went through the same thing. Sometimes it would boot into the OS, other times it wouldn't get past the CM9 guy, and even sometimes it wouldn't get past the HO!NO! logo. I even had a hard time getting into CWM via the factory hard reset method (I kept getting just a blank screen, but the phone was still on. I pressed the volume down button and that seemed to get it into CWM, although it could have just been a coincidence).
I tried re-flashing the ROM but still no change. So I then flashed CM9 RC-1 and haven't had an problems since.
From what I've read in the Full Throttle thread, the HO!NO!'s ROM already comes with HO!NO!'s kernel. I've also read that the instability is due to the undervolting that's taking place in the ROM (and I'd have to agree based on my experiences with overclocking).
If you really want CM9 go with the RC-1 (or even the nightly). I find it to be incredibly fast so far. Maybe HO!NO! can make a ROM compiled with the linaro toolchain that has a slightly less aggressive undervolting settings
To make thing clear for everyone
first kernel i make was for gingerbread and yes i was using undervolting and overclocking.
For CM9 i only use overclocking since CyanogenMod team all ready use the same undervolting i was using with GB.
It as to be something else causing you that kind of problem.
did you try a fresh install? wipe data,cache,dalvik Without anything esle like script or backup, like it was the first time you got the phone. nothing only the rom.
Wiped everything but had a backup

I was coming from a stock ROM that I had rooted with SuperOneClick, and installed CWM using Rom Manager from the market. When I went to install your ROM I first made a backup of the current ROM (i wanted to having something to fall back to). I did a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, then flashed your ROM. I also flashed gapps as well (could that have caused a problem?)
Does it sound like anything is off? I would really like to be running your Full Throttle ROM (it's the only reason why I tried to flash my phone in the first place)
I have almost tried ALL the ICS custom roms. Besides the default, T-Mo ICS rom, none of the other custom ICS roms that is based on 4.0.3 UVLE1, does not shutdown or reboot.......it just sits there.
All the instructions that I came across refers to 'Cache, Dalvick Cache and Permissions reset" - but this does not make a difference.
Even the software apps available to reboot.poweroff, does not work anymore.
Any ideas? Am I missing something?
It almost seems like something was messed up somewhere and all the ROM mods are based on that?
Thanks
Have you tried that Darkside Cache Wipe? it usually clears up that problem.

What recovery are you running? Have you tried the darkside super cache wipe? Cwmr 5.0.2.7 (i believe that's the version) the hard recovery doesn't clear caches correctly. Never had a problem with with ics roms not rebooting or power issues, been running cm9 stable since release and haven't had a problem.

Yes. I used the Darkside Cache wipe everytime before I flash the ROMs, This is my process:
Backup, wipe data, Wipe cache, ADvanced+wipe Dalvic, mount+Format /system, flash Darkside EXT4 wipe, Flash Darkside Cache wipe,
Flash rom, reboot, let is sit 10mins, reboot (well hold power in for 10seconds until it buzz and then boot up)
Afterwards powerbutton brings up menu, it even brings up the T-Mobile shutdown logo (if the rom has it) and just sits there......FOREVER.
I have even reflashed the Darkside Cache wipe - still the same.
I'm on CWM Touch recovery 6.0.1.1
Very annoying.

Yeah, that is very annoying. Have you looked into the potential that it could be a kernel issue? And also, have you flashed back to stock and done completely clean install without resorting data to anything?

I'll flash back to stock this evening when I get back home and see how it goes.....will report back.

PS. I normally ONLY restore my apps-data - NO system data accept SMS/MMS & Bookmarks - that's all system data I EVER restore.
But I'll try the 'back to stock' and report back.

I was having the same problem. The ds scripts did not fix it for me. I also tried updating cwm5.0.2.7 to cwm 6.x. still it did not work. Tried using ROM toolbox pro, titanium backup pro and ROM manager, they would all freeze while trying to power off the phone or trying to reboot to recovery. Finally I flashed twrp2.2, that has seem to fixed it.

Don't use CWM to wipe cache at all.
1. Flash super wipe
2. Flash Rom
3. Flash cache wipe
4. Reboot
5. Let sit for 10 mins
6. Reboot
Follow those steps and you will have no problems.

Honestly, I don't see the point of wiping cache after a fresh install. Unless I'm mistaken, there is no cache yet? I do that except no cache wipe after flash ROM. With Darkside in particular, it installs apps during the first boot up. Of yet to have out of the norm issues.

The only other way i was able to get my phone to boot past the quick load up bar which it stops at about 90% for some odd reason is if i do a nandroid restore...any reason why this happens???
You're supposed to use the darkside cache script after flashing the rom and after flashing any other mods and themes, but I have also notice that the script does not work correctly when using twrp. So when using twrp clear the caches and fix permissions with the options in recovery after the rom.
Bert, dont use that cache wipe again.. i think it depends on the phone or something. After i use that cache wipe zip, the phone is STUCK on goodbye. Does not reboot correctly after that.. i have to battery pull. If your phone hangs "normal" time length, put it in your pocket meanwhile.. who cares, **** happens.. no dev is perfect. Thats why theres so many updates all around..
try remove everything from yr phone, sd, sim, battery, use different ones if possible. format emmc etc..... am i being unclear？ nvm, recovering from a bad cold.

Why are you pulling the battery? If for any reason the phone does get stuck all you have to do is hold down the power button for about 10 seconds for it to reboot. All you're gonna get pulling the battery so much is probably a broken back cover from removing it so much, only time you should pull the battery is if the phone isn't responding even to the power button or stuck in a boot loop where holding power til it reboots and then immediately holding down both volume rockers to get into recovery doesn't work.

So... long story short, I just bought my SGS3 yestarday, and I'm a bit of a root newbie (rooted my Inspire 4g with AAHK which was a piece of cake since it was so well developed), installed CM10 and as my first ROM. THen I realized that the camera on CM10 straight up didn't work, went to the most recent CM9 nightly (8/16) with ROMManager, flashed it in, but I didn't wipe my data, just the delvik cache, now when I turn on my phone it is stuck in the CM9 booting animation for all eternity.
Anybody have any idea how to fix this? I.e. revert to stock ROM or something?

Boot into recovery. Volume up + power, I think. Then wipe data. Go to advanced and wipe cache and dalvik too while you're at it. Might even want to go to mount, format system, and reflash the ROM.
BTW, the camera was working on CM10 8/14. You might wanna use that.

Thanks a ton, sorry for being a total noob about all this stuff. It worked and now the phone is working with the latest CM9 nightly.
For future reference, in the unlikely case that anybody visits this thread, press vol up+home+power to boot into recovery.

Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with a strange issue I have.
When I flash to stock root ROM my phone works fine, including my camera, however, when I flash to ANY custom ROM my camera only works when my flash is off. If I turn the flash on the camera attempts to take a picture and then freezes and I have to do a battery pull to get it back on.
I will through a curveball here and say that I have had extremely limited success (but success nonetheless) when I use my original OEM battery.
The flash itself works fine as I can use apps like flashlight no problem.
Oh and app's from the Play store work fine as well w/ flash on.
Anybody experience this before? I have searched and found nothing,
Thanks everyone.
How are you wiping before flashing? I recommend wipe data, cache, dalvik, format /system.
And by "any" ROMs do you mean 4.2 ROMs or both 4.1 and 4.2?
Well the stock ROM was 4.1.1.
The thing is I've had this problem for a long time now so it would be on both 4.1 and 4.2.
New development though, I just re- flashed to PKD ROM and the flash works intermittently. It seems when I take a picture if something closeup with flash it works but when the subject is far away the camera app just goes black.
So, about your wipe procedures...

Sorry,
So when I flash a ROM I wipe data/factory clear dalvik and clear cache.
I've done that from stock to custom.
The next time you flash, have everything backed up/saved to your sd card or pay and follow the wipe procedures I recommended above. It wipes the OS completely off, leaving you a completely blank slate for the new rom. Have your desired rom and gapps on your micro sd card

You forgot to format /system manually in mount/boot, that causes a lot of errors (it caused a bootloop issue when going from stock to Slim for me)
Hi, in the last minutes i've flashed the 2.7 build of LiquidSmooth Rom from the Paranoid Hello Halo rom... I've done the prcedure like XDA said : Wipe Wipe Wipe (cache, dalvik, system) Flash Rom Flash Gapps. It booted fine but all my apps that i've had on my previous rom was still there... all of them. The most disturbing is my settings were also like I've left them ( disabled pie wifi etc) also my Google Accound was already setuped and good to go. Is it a new feature from flashing 4.2.2 rom to an other 4.2.2 rom ? I've never seen that before. I've also rebooted to make sure it wont boot loop on reboot, and it booted like a charm!
Any clues ?
Weird, never seen that before. Tell us what recovery you have and exactly what you are wiping. Can't think of anything else at the moment I'm sure others will chime in.
Sounds to me like you're not wiping /data. This is where your apps and setting are stored and unless you factory reset using stock recovery, deliberately wipe/format /data, or flash a Rom that wipes it for you, all your apps and settings will remain.
Seems like normal behavior to me.

Got it that's why. I was sure wiping system would wipe data too. But do you think its dangerous to not wipe data? Because actually my ROM is rocking right now without issues? Should I reflash it for safety?
It just depends....
It's always best to start clean, especially if you were having problems. But if you want to keep data intact, you should be ok as long as you don't go to an entirely different rom, base, or build.
If you are updating to a newer version of the same build, you're fine. Also if updating to a newer build/version you should be ok, but may have a few hiccups.
However, anytime you go backwards (4.2.2 to 4.1.2) you should wipe it all. The same is true if you are moving to a different base, such as CM to TW. Keeping your internal sdcard data is usually ok, but sometimes it can cause some issues.
