It am using paranoid as my daily rom. And i am deciding to turn to aokp since paranoid is battery consuming.
And i know all roms are good to wipe before update. BUT is it possible to upgrade from aokp to newer version of aokp without wiping, and its still perfectly work, anyone try tho?

It may or may not work, try it yourself.
Personally, i don't have much success recently.

you can sometimes get away with not wiping data, but occasionally when there is a large change to system files like the upcoming changes between build 4 and build 5 it is recommended to do a full wipe then install as there is a good chance that some of the new features may not work. Aokp has always said you may or may not wipe its up to you but its always recommended to wipe

For someone with battery issues, a wipe may be what the doctor ordered.
good day.
As for me who uses AOKP for months and months now, AOKP will always indicate if it needs wipe or not, but personally I'd like wipe and reinstall to prevent any possible problem

AOKP ICS is great, but if you're asking for JB version, then AOKP at the current moment is not the best choice.

what da fuq you talking about? Sounds like operator error.
good day.
Been running AOKP since build 2. As mentioned by others, its really up to you whether or not you want to do a full wipe between updates of the same ROM.
So far, I have dirty flashed between builds 2-3-4 and haven't had any issues. I always wipe cache and dalvik. You can give it a chance yourself, but if you end up having issues, you will know that you need to do a clean installation.
As for the stability of AOKP JB, it's been very smooth for me with excellent battery life (3.5 - 4 hours of SCREEN-ON time, about 16-18 hours uptime)
Hi all,
I am testing JellyMIUI 2.12.14 V1 since two days and the battery drain is really horrible.
So i decided to downgrade to 2.12.14_R28 by wiping cache and davlik cache only then installing 2.12.14_R28 over 2.12.14V1.
But the rapid battery drain continue and i do not have the backligth for buttons.
Do you think i need a full wipe before installing the R28 version ?
thanks by advance for your help and patience.
Yes. But first try installing Better Battery Stats to see what is draining your battery.
Ok, thanks for the answer, i will try.
regards.

You should ask your first question in the infamous forum you will probably get your question answered there faster.
And for the second one I like linaro paranoid android with CI3kener's uber Kernel. That gives me both performance and battery life. But it really is your choice. As it's what you like that matters.
Regards,
Team Necessity
I use on demand kernel settings on my xylon port and it works like a charm

First what recovery are u using? It does matter, if ur on twrp u don't need the wipe scripts, just do a complete wipe, then flash the ROM, it should work, after flashing reboot and let the phone sit idle for about ten min, then reboot and set it up, remember the first boot will take a while so don't worry if it doesn't boot right up, as far as ur other question, personally I'm running Embryo 6 with cymbaline 3.5 kernel oc'd to 1.62ghz and I get about 4hrs screen on time with heavy use, but it's all how u use ur device too, try a few diff ones to find ur best settings...

Hi Friends,
I am currently running Dirty Unicorns ROM (Android 4.4.2) in my Galaxy S2 T989. I wanted to switch to Cynogenmod 10.2 which would be Android 4.3.
1) Please let me know whether we can go from 4.4.2 to 4.3 or it has a chance of giving problems while installation of CM.
2) I am thinking that I can simply put the CM 10.2 zip and GAPPS on my external SD and boot into recovery(I'm having CWM recovery) to install the CM 10.2 after wiping data and cache. Correct me If there is any other step to follow to switch to CM from other ROMs.
3) Gonna take a backup of user apps using Titanium backup in Dirty Unicorns 4.4.2 and restore those user apps after installing CM 10.2. Please let me know if this works.
Thanks in advance.

It should work if you wipe system, cache, Dalvik cache, and Android secure. Restoring apps might not work. Why go from 4.4 to 4.3? Anything you don't like?

You shouldn't have any problems downgrading if you follow these instructions. However, I will tell you that Cyanogenmod 10.2 stable didn't have the greatest performance on my Hercules - I had a slow lockscreen wakeup and some laggy audio. You might try 10.2 and see if it works any better for you, but I've been much happier with the performance of CM 10.1.3 stable.

Thanks for your reply. There are lots of bugs in Dirty unicorns 4.4.2 rom. I'm facing problem in even changing the ringtone so planing to switch to CM.

Is it! I'm even fine to go to CM 10.1.3. S2 Hercules is my friend's phone and it's me who has changed the ROM to dirty unicorns but now he is not happy with the bugs.
I own a Galaxy S3 running CM 10.2. It's just awesome and super fast so that's the reason I planned for CM 10.2 for S2 Hercules too.
Does CM 10.1.3 have Apollo music player?

CM 10.1.3 does have Apollo! I didn't spend much time on 10.2, but 10.1.3 seems to have every feature from 10.2 (aside from the android version number of course). The difference in speed and responsiveness from stock has been great for me.

That sounds good. Gonna try it. What other ROMs have you tried and which all you feel good for S2 T989.

I've mostly tried out Jelly Bean ROMs, and as far as JB goes I'd have to say Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 has been my favorite for its simplicity and performance. However, if you're looking for much more customization, AOKP Jelly Bean MR1 Milestone was very stable and performed similarly well to CM. Haven't tried many KitKat ROMs yet, but the new SlimKat release as well as Paranoid Android Legacy seemed great. I stayed with CM for now though.

One more question. Now I'm currently running 4.4.2 but I'm gonna flash 4.2. I haven't touched the kernel at all at any time. Do we need to do anything with kernel here?

Nope. Just wipe cache, Dalvik, system, data, and android secure before flashing. The new ROM will have its own kernel.

Android secure is usually where apps that you move to SD are stored.

Nope, when you flash a ROM it'll come with it's own kernel. You can search XDA for a custom kernel (usually includes overclocking features, tweaks, etc), but I've never used a custom one personally. Enjoy!

Thanks.. Flashed CM 10.2 for now. Going good. Lock screen is laggy and taking bit more time to unlock device.

That's the exact reason I moved to cm 10.1.3, lock screen lag is nearly nonexistent. Still not quite as snappy as stock, but the best I've found in a custom rom.
Hi, I am currently on CM12.1 and I find it laggy on my Note 2. I wanted to make a poll (but I couldn't since I can't enumerate all the roms that are in here) and ask what rom are you using or what rom do you prefer and why? I am leaning toward DN4 but i've been reading that DN3 is more stable.
Thank you guys!
Honestly, I have not seen any lag issues on CM 12.1. What nightly/build are you running? I doubt the lag is coming from the ROM itself.

Well, first make a complete backup using TWRP. Then, do a factory reset (wipe data, system, dalvik, cache), then flash the latest nightly from here: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=t0lte, and flash the latest gapps from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tk-gapps-t3116347. (I personally use tk gapps).
Note that this process will wipe your internal storage, so make sure you've backed up anything you want to keep.
Im using Cm12 and it works fine for me didnt have any bugs or lagging so far
