If I want to flash another rom, I wipe cache + dalvik cache, then I flash the rom, boot in bootloader, flash the kernel. If I go from cm10 to sphongle, and then to this, it wont boot :/. And if I do factory reset and than the things above, it will boot. So my Question is, is it normal to factory reset all the time?

When updating the same ROM just cache and dalvick, when switching to a different ROM wipe cache, dalvick, factory reset, system for best experience
ah okay, thanks!

Always do a factory reset, close it in the box and then turn around. Wait 1 or 2 minutes, turn around, open the box and scream "oh my god thank you all you didn't have to!" And act like your phone is completely new and possibly a surprise
well from switching ROMs, factory reset is the best way coz the roms have different bases
for updating one, factory reset is not obligatory but recommended nevertheless :good:

I would say re-flash your rom, wipe cache and dalvik, and flash the latest gapps.
Sorry didn't say before but everything is stock

So not rooted...Its even closing after you reboot?
I would try going into applications, clearing the cache, force stop it, reboot, then try again.

If you are still FC'ing after this, try doing a factory reset, and if that doesn't fix it, i recommend taking it into a sprint store.
You should also make sure that you have a data connection where you are located, because the market will FC if you don't have data (3g/4g/wifi).
Yes and I've done that also I want to do everything before going to sprint and having to reset it

Like the other user said, you can do a factory reset.
Turn your phone off. Hold the vol+down button while turning it on, and you'll be in the bootloader, a white screen with androids on skateboards. Use vol+down to scroll down to clear storage, then use the power button to select. Factory reset done.
Hi all,
I decided to remove Cyanogen today from my Inc2(obv). I loaded up the recovery I flashed with Clockwork last week. When my phone rebooted it got stuck at the HTC splash screen. Now all it does is loop the splash screen over and over again. Does anyone have an idea as to what i could do?
Did you wipe data and caches before flashing?
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda premium
yes I did. This wasnt the first phone that I have rooted, so I am confused as to why it is doing this. On my old Droid by doing what I did above, I was able to remove cyanogen easily.
Did you make a nandroid backup first,if you did that just go to recovery and then go to backup and restore and select restore and just choose your backup,and then restart.

Do the following in recovery:
Factory reset
Wipe data
Wipe dalvik
Format all partitions except sdcard.
Enjoy aosp
I'm sure you are coming from a sense rom and there is residue left on your system partition. Formatting all partitions will help here.

Thank you so much. I had wiped everything but the dalvik. after I wiped that I was able to load up the clockwork recover I made last week and it works fine now. Again, thank you
EDIT: now I cannot seem to turn on my mobile network from the quick settings dropdown tab. At least I can turn on the phone now and get to the phones settings. I will mess around tomorrow when i have time

Not sure if it's just me or the phone. I'm currently running RCMix3d Runny v4.0, which I love, it's great. But I wanted to try AOSP to get a more natural feel. I installed CM7, had problems connecting to network and tons of FC's. Went back to RCMix3d, for a few days, then decided to try MIUI. Looks smooth, nice features. Tried to change some settings (turn on BT, turn on unknown sources install), phone did a Hot boot, once it came up I get constant android.process.acore FCs.
Both times installing AOSP roms I did a format data/cache/dalvik, not just installing over RCMix3d. Even tried doing format x2 on all first.
Anyone else having similar problems, or could it just be something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Sorry, what do you mean format system? I'm doing from CWM, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, wipe Dalvik Cache.
Unless you meet from the boot menu, doing a factory reset (which i'll need to reroot)

No, don't do that. In CWM, go to mounts and storage. You'll see format system, run that. Then wipe data/factory reset in the main CWM screen. Then install your AOSP ROM.

Well, I'm just an idiot. So I did the system format, still had same issues with MIUI.
Noticed that the issues start right after I restore from Titanium backup. Then realized I was hitting Restore System + Apps. Which going from Sense to AOSP, doesn't work so well.
Just reinstalled and only restored Apps. Working fine now.
Thanks for the help!
Sometimes the easiest things are the ones most overlooked!!! (been there done that.....way toooo many times..lol)
Glad ya got it going!
Ok I had purchased the ZL battery and have been using it since day 1, however today i got home around 11:25pm. i had put my phone on charge @ 3PM. I just finished my 3rd cycle for the battery so i'd figure its done charging as it indicated it was, and turn it on and now all of sudden constant bootloop out of nowhere.
What could have caused this? it was working just fine before i didn't change anything at all.
I'm Running Stock TW w/Saber Kernel. I had purchased the ZL battery a week ago and ever since no problems, nor did i flash anything at all. I've been on TW way before i even thought of buying the battery.
So what could have caused this to undergo a bootloop session.
I went into recovery and wiped dalvik and cache and still is doing a bootloop. Should i do a factory reset however i have no backup because i have been fine since and I've been on Stock TW figure this wouldn't happen.
This used to happen on my epic if I ever left the battery out too long. I always just reflashed either the rom or the kernel. Worst case scenario you just nandroid and restore data.

Try going into Advanced then format system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Then swipe to confirm and repeat this 2 more times for a total of 3 Advanced wipes
If that still doesn't help then follow the same procedure but after performing an Advanced wipe 3x go into Format Data to format your internal storage.

Seems like you already did a full stock restore. I had the same symptoms, different rom tho. Reflashing the rom without wiping allowed me to boot up normally and with all of my data is intact. FYI for next time.

I said I was on stock and had no nandroid of stock seeing how I shouldn't have needed one. But thanks for the info. I'll have to back it up today.

Between using different 4.1.2 ROM's and then wiping everything when Tweaked wigged out and f'ed up the phone with tons of popups and such, freezing and just getting sick of it... I decided to use one of the Android 4.3 FACTORY images - unroot, format EVERYTHING (I mean, EVERYTHING), and us Odin to install the factory image... the phone works fine for 2 days and with nothing on it, the thing pops up saying android.media and google play servgices has stopped working... I'm so tired of this, how do I just go completely BLANK SLATE and back to 100% factory? I thought I did that, but apparently not...
I'm not saying that you didn't, but did you try a simple reboot?
Maybe try also a factory reset.
