Hi
I use CM11 on my HOX and update to newest nightly once a week.
I use the build in update function in CM.
My question is if it is important to also flash a new boot.img every time?
Thanks in advance.
It's not necessary, the update should say so. But on the safe side....it won't harm if you do flash it.

Hi all.
I'm using Seadersn's 10162012 build which includes bricked kernel AFAIK. I've always just used default supported kernels up to now.
Do I need to flash modules?
Seems to be running fine as is but I don't want to overlook stuff if its needed for functionalities or running smoothly.

When you flash the Bricked kernel (which is the default kernel in CM10 these days), the ROM zip file that you flash from Recovery also has the kernel modules. So first you flash the boot.img on fastboot, then when you flash the ROM zip, the modules (which are inside it) also get flashed. That's why you don't need to flash modules separately.
When you want to use another AOSP kernel with CM10, then you flash the boot.img of that kernel, then the ROM zip, and then the modules of the new AOSP kernel you are flashing (because the ROM zip does not contain it).
Hope that answers your question.
I think it does.... thanks for that

Can't yet reply on dev threads so hopefully I'll get an answer here.
Since the last update my phone seems to take about twice as long to charge.
The battery life is much improved with this latest flash so I'm happy to put up with it but is there anything I can do to improve this?

Resolved by updating the rom

Hello,
I am using Cynogenmod 10 and I recently downloaded the newest Gapps to update my existing ones. My question is:
Can I just flash the newest Gapps? If not, what would the process be?
Thank you very much!

I believe you just have to delete cache and wipe dalvik and install the new gapps.
Make sure Gapps is for JB 4.1.2 and not 4.2.1. CM10 is still on 4.1.2. unless you are running the unofficial 10.1 rom.
Edit** 10.1 Nightlies are now rolling out. So flash 4.2 Gapps if you are planning on running it
Hello, I've worked with custom roms and such before, but only stable things. I installed the Cyanogenmod 10.1 nightly builds, and I've been updating them every day, through TWRP by just flashing the rom, and gapps. A snapshot was just released, and I was wondering if I just do it the same method, or do I have to do the wipe system and all that when you first install a brand new rom. I'm pretty sure I do it the same way, but I just want to make sure there isn't have to be anything else. Better safe than sorry.
Oh my why are you going through all that trouble CyanogenMod has a built in updater all you do is go to about and then CyanogenMod update I believe it will ask you the frequency to check for updates. Make sure you change the options to nightly builds. The phone will notify you when there's an update, after downloading the phone will update itself and all your apps will still be there so you won't need to flash G apps each time.

The process to do this is called a "dirty flash" because you are flashing over what you already have without wiping again. Usually if its an updated version of the same rom you dont need to rewipe everything
However, if you come upon this in some other rom (you're updating to a new version of it), make sure that the OP's instructions dont mention a full flash, because the nature of some big updates WILL require you to do a full wipe and then flash
But for this specific case, just do what the guy above me said

It is a more stable build designation. Still not an official release. Think of it as a monthly nightly!
Thank you!

after 3 day using i see performance boost comparing last version. Now i'm on stock kernel and rom and no need for kernel changes. Full stock rom with stock kernel give's me 4,5k results in antutu v3.

You need stock recovery not cwm
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
I came here with the same issue, the update today wouldn't apply (rooted, stock, cwm touch).
I now know the stock recovery is required after the last post.
my next question now is...can I revert to the stock recovery until I can install the update, and if so would that be the 'recovery.img' that is in the folder with the full backup of my stock ROM?
And if that's the case, do I fastboot flash that as I did to install cwm?
If not, how do I revert to stock recovery?
Thanks.

Hi guys,
Can you guys give me a direct link to downloading the latest version of pacman rom for the galaxy nexus on android 4.3? Thanks

As you requested, this is the latest available nightly on BasketBuild. Nightlies aren't stable (especially for PACman) so actually you shouldn't want them at all.
And you have hours of patience waiting for a spoon-fed answer but don't have the 10-minute patience searching for the links in the Dev subforum? Come on man, this is XDA - help yourself next time

My phone isn't able to flash the ROM. Do I need to do a factory reset then flash?

1) You have a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP), right? Stock recovery doesn't flash custom ROMs.
2) What error does it give? Details needed.

And to add to that, make a back up in cwm/twrp, then wipe, then flash rom+gapps. The latest nightly of pacman was uploaded to the pacman site last night and appears to be running really well compared to the 10/7 release. It is also android 4.3.1
It tries to flash the rom then it just stops in the first half second of the flash and says error.
