Factory reset, format /system
Flash rom
Edit: this is how I flash roms and I NEVER had an extra issue by doing so.

+1 :good:
Note to OP: Don't flash Gapps if it is included already in the ROM you installed.

after flash i wipe the cache/dalvik. I think it is the option after you flash in twrp.

Thanks for your answers

[Q] Bootloop + Flash ROM

if i have bootloop , should i flash a new rom using cwm? will it work? or still get bootloop?

Yes, it will recover you from a bootloop provided you do all wipes (data, system, cache and dalvik cache) and you are using a compatible kernel (for example - CM10 with FXP's kernel or Trinity Rom with DoomKernel/TrinityKernel).

if you have a nandroid backup flash it first..if not then yeah, what @abcdjdj said

The best/safe way is to flash it through Flashtool

difference?

should i reset factory and then flash backup or there's no difference?

WIPE all from recovery. But if you want you can do it from menu settings also, reset to factory settings. After that flash the new ROM, wipe dalvik's cache too.

If its just a backup you're gonna flash, just clear cache and dalvik cache then flash your backup and reboot
Just rememer to always create a backup before flashing mods bro, if you get bootloops you can easily revert to your backup instead of going through the whole process of flashing a brand new rom and starting over from scratch

Phone's gone into bootloop

I was on MIUI v5, and I wanted to try out hellkat 4.4.2.. At this point I had CWM 5.
So I flashed twrp 2.6. I tried doing a factory reset. It got stuck while factory resetting,
Then I pulled out the battery and tried advanced, wiping cache, system, dalvik cache, data.
Then again, strangely it got stuck there as well.
Luckily I had backed up MIUI rom, so I tried restoring, but it didn't work. It goes on bootloops.
twrp recovery doesn't detect CWM .img file. So, I cant revert to CWM as well.
It does flash .Zip files, So I tried flashing MIUI rom again ,and It still goes into bootloops.
What do I do?
P.S I'm still a newbee, It's only my 2nd rom i tried flashing.

When using 2.6 twrp in settings u need to check the box next to rm-rf than u can wipe everything except ur internal and external SD.. Unless u want them wiped than check all than u should be able to flash any ROM after wiping report back after

Will try! But as of now, It's not booting, when it does, I'll try it out!

U may have flashed too many things with out doing the correct wipes.. If all else fails just Odin back to stock and restart from there

But I still cant flash hellkat rom for some reason.
Even though I can factory reset, and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and data.
any reason as to why I cant flash this rom??

2.6.3.1 TWRP? Sounds like bad flashing. Have tried "Enable md5 verification" in TWRP while restoring? Was it a complete backup from TWRP? Kernel? Modem? Boot? System?

I have not tried that but now i flash again philz via odin and try again but seems like Bootloop ,again,
Yes, complete backup from twrp and also complete backup from philz.

Before you restore
Make sure to:
1. In Philz, Wipe Data / Factory Data Reset then Clean Install a new ROM
2. Wipe Data / Factory Data Reset then Wipe Data Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik's Cache
4. Flash TWRP
5. Restore BACKUP from TWRP
Try it!

Newbie to installing Roms

I have a sprint variant of the LG G2 running Android 4.4.2 kitkat and I'm interested in trying the CloudyG3 Rom, and I was wondering, what are the most simple steps to installing the CloudyG3 Rom so that I won't make any mistakes? Appreciate all the help I can get. [emoji4]

Make sure you are up to date with KK baseband and modem...then follow the instructions that he has posted, it is basic as that...
Granted that you are already rooted with a custom recovery since you are inquiring about flashing a Ported ROM
this is what I did:
DL the ROM
Place on SD card
reboot recovery
Make a back up of your current ROM
wipe everything except Internal Data (Do not wipe internal data.)
after wipe you can now choose the ROM and install
if you have white lines after first boot there are Kernels that fix it in the second post FAQ on the original thread
if you do get the white lines power your device off and boot to recovery by holding Volume down and Sleep/power button, entering until Recovery mode appears on the screen..

Ok, thanks, I'll try that. ?

Ok, I'm in recovery mode and went to wipe, then I went to Advanced Wipe, and it shows these options: Dalvik Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, and Cache, which ones should be checked and unchecked?

Be careful of what you delete!

As hooover stated, check everything except the Internal Storage. Wiping the internal storage will delete the OS!

I am on official/stock ZVD & only rooted so far. So if it's official then it must be already on KK basband, right ?
