So i decided to follow this font installation guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/fonts-flashable-zips-t3219827/page83#post69330165. After selecting the font i wanted, I used TWRP to the flashing for me. I selected "advanced wipe" and then wiped dalvik and wiped cache. Then i flashed the font, rebooted, and now my device won't go past the boot animation
Restore your backup and try again without the wipe.
Go back into twrp and wipe the data partition and wipe dalvik/cache then restore your latest stable nandroid ...
In most cases, you should wipe your cache/dalvik after flashing, not before. But it's not necessary unless you are flashing a rom, whether it be a clean or dirty flash.

H'okay. So. I had Myn's 2.2 and I wanted to try out something different so I decided on CM7 RC2.
I do a nandroid backup (ofcourse) and then proceed to wipe my cache/factory reset. I then flash CM7 and then do a partial restore of my data for my apps/contacts.
I then proceed to the boot screen and it just loops, over and over again. Without loading my data, CM7 boots just fine... so what in my data is preventing me from being able to boot into CM7?
Thanks in advance!
Boot into recovery, wipe dalvik cache, reboot system.
Try not restoring the data part of the applications. I've heard sometimes issues can arise from that.

What am I supposed to restore to get apps/contacts back then? :3
What you should do is backup your apps with titanium, backup your rom, then wipe factory/data, cache, dalvik cache, flash the rom. on the first boot, it may take an extra couple of minutes. After you sign in, blah blah, open titanium backup, then restore apps with data, NOT system settings.
What you have to do is flash Calkulin's Format All zip. This will delete everything except for the SD card. While still in recovery reflash CM7 and then while STILL in recovery flash the proper Gaaps. You follow these tlstwps I guarantee it will work without a problem. FYI, in terms of restoring your apps with data more than likely it wont work. I have always had trouble restoring AP data when going from Sense to AOSP (CM) Hope this helped.
So i've tried flashing Wyrms nightlies (multiple versions) and now skyraider 4.0 and every time i flash the rom, and reboot it gets stuck in a bootloop. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, but i can get back to my backedup roms. Any suggestions?
Are you wiping before flashing the new ROM?
What clockwork recovery version are you using? I've never had an issue with roms causing bootloops, this is my process though it might be a little overkill. Clockwork 2.5.1.2, put rom on SD card, boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format boot, format system, format data, format cache, then flash the rom. I say its possibly overkill because I think most roms install scripts do some of those wipes for you but I've never run into bootloops after rom installation.

Got a little problem with my phone, after flashing any ROM, it boot loops. It was running CM7.2, I tried to flash m1ndh4x8r's ROM, it bootlooped. I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 7.2 again, bootloop.
Cleared dalvik cache, etc... nothing's working. Any ideas?
Format system then try flashing again, but be very careful when formatting the system. Did you not make any backups before flashing mindhaxers rom?
Apologies, it's working again...
I'm still on bootloop. after turning it on. It stock at the nAa kernel image and doesn't proceed to bootanimation. it just stay the same after a half hour. please help.
done wipe/factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
and format system.
Hello quick question...
I recently backed up rom i used, via recovery to SD card. After that i wiped everything and flashed another rom.
So, now if i want to restore my previous rom i should do, data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik and restore my previous rom right?
No need to do any wipes, it has to wipe to restore the partition anyway.
Hello, my HTC is rooted, unlocked with s-off. I made factory reset, flash Cyanogen 10.1 and the phone freezed on cyanogen mod screen. I wait over 30 minutes, still the same logo. What to do?
Try reflashing the Rom after a complete wipe.
Wipe Data/factory reset
Wipe sd-ext
Wipe system
Wipe dalvik cache (twice )
Wipe batterystats
Then reboot recovery..
Flash Rom & gapps
