If you did factory reset, then wiping cache is unnecessary. Factory reset already wipes the cache partition aswell.

with firmware and CWM embed, than take hold back key to start phone
You probably dont have unlocked bootloader and you installed recovery with x-parts from google play store or runned a cmd file to install it.
When you installed the custorm rom you automaticaly lost your recovery. Each time you install a rom you must install recovery too.
Now that your phone wont boot you must flash stock ics/gb again with flash tool seus or pc companion.
Seus and PCC work only with locked bootloaders.

I Have TWRP 2.0 And When I Go To Install Any Other Rom Besides The Stock Backup I Made It Installs Fine But When I Boot Up The Rom It Stays In Bootloop Any Suggestions?
It sounds exactly like you didn't perform a "factory reset" before installing a new rom.
wipe wipe wipe
You should factory reset in twrp
the bootlooping u r facing is due to messed files of stock plus newly installed rom
first factory reset,wipe cache,dalvik cache install new rom then u will be fine

ok thanks guys I'll try that out.
I'm on TrueAncestor now and want to try out Gin2ICS. Do I need to flash the stock .ftf ,root and install CWM all over again or can I just wipe and factory reset in CWM and flash the new ROM?
Yup! You need to do a factory reset if you don't want to get a bootloop
And also don't forget to 'wipe cache'..
If your current fw is match or compatible with gin2ics, you don't need to flash fw again. Just flash the rom via cwm and don't forget to factory reset and wipe cache before

actually you only need to wipe dalvik-cache, the rom installation it self will do a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache.
And backing up the previous ROM should do just that (back it up) in every aspect (restore apps, widgets/shortcut setups)? And what about restoring myapps back on a new ROM im flashing? Do i have to just do it the slow way with play store or is there a better way? Same question with restoring home screen setups/widgets/app placement when flashing over to a new ROM? Can Titanium backup do this? BTW Im usingTWRP for recovery.

I went from stock GB to .58 enhanced+TrueAncestor following the ROM-guide for TA. Should I have done any factory resets/cache resets and what not during this? Everything works fine but I dont want any trouble later.
Some custom roms require you to factory reset . Some wipe cache and factory reset automatically
Hi guys,

.587
Already unlocked bootloader
Already root my device
i follow the instruction to install kernel
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
Case resolved.
It was my mistake. at last i learned from mistake
to go to recovery mode shud press Back button.
thanks for the reply guys.
Does flashtool show any bad blocks?? Can you see the kernel logo??
Do you wipe your dalvik cache after changing kernel? If not then the rom will probably fail.
With full wipe?

When I recently flashed the camera.zip file for the Sense 5 lookalike ROM, I tried to reboot in recovery as usual but now it keeps going to bootloader mode. Already wiped data/factory reset, doesn't work. Help please?
EDIT: It's fastboot mode, not bootloader.
EDIT 2: Flashing the ROM again worked. But I would like to know why this problem occurs. Because I flashed the same zip again and this time it worked.

hey i had this problem too
do this:
download a new rom on the pc,
go mounts and storage and mount usb storage or however its named,
connect the phone to the pc and put the rom on sd,
so if you done this, unmount usb storage and do a clear wipe:
wipe data factory reset, wipe dalvic cache, format everything exept sd, wipe battery states and the other one in advanced...
then install the new rom, and wait..
after this go to advanced and fix permission..
then reboot
wait until it finnished.. it takes a long time
so i hope i helped you

LOL I forgot about this thread. All I had to do was reinstall the ROM
I have a Sony Z1 Compact D5503 rooted, dual recovery with android 5.1.1...
I Unrooted and flash the zip of magisk 6 with locked bootloader.
Now the phone doesn't show anything, so I decided to flash stock rom with flashtool, everything OK, but when the phone is loading reboot and start a infinite bootloop
what happened??? Is my phone hard bricked? any solution?? please help me.
Wipe data / cache.
If not work,bReflash the firmware with flashtool.
Check the userdata and app list options, it should restore your phone (factory reset)
