A full wipe means a full data wipe through recovery (factory reset), wipe cache and dahlvik's cache

I just updated my aria to the latest 2.2 liberated Rom. I installed it this morning and now just realized it said to wipe data before I installed it. But I didn't. I just plain out installed it. It seems like its running fine. But what do I do? Do I still need to wipe data or something?

If it were me, I would do a backup and wipe it then re-install, but If you are not experiencing any issues, then it does not seem like you need to. If you do encounter any issues, Then definitely do it.
No need to wipe data if you are going from a liberty to liberty, if you went to liberty to cm6 then yes you would need to wipe data..

Don't think too complicated for this, if you don't have problem, then let it be.
To tell you to wipe, is to lower the chance to have problem.
It's just same as upgrading/change of different OS of you PC.
e.g. One maybe painless from XP -> Vista without format, the other maybe turns out blue screen.
Quick question, using rom manager do I have to wipe all data and cache when flashing from rc3 to rc4?
And how would u all rate nightly? And which nightly version? As I see a lot in rom manager? If I chose nightly would. I have to wipe all data also coming from rc3?
Thanks
You wont have to wipe data between ant cm7 versions. Just cache.

You only want to do a full wipe if you are flashing the rom first. If you are just replacing the kernel all you need to do is wipe both caches, flash and reboot.

Do a full wipe and format cache and dalvik cache also
Then reflash miui and that should work

I did on recovery because it doesn't work on rom manager
Happened to me a couple releases back. Agreed with joemoss, I re-wiped data, cache & dalvik, reflashed, everything was fine.

Quick question,
I keep looking but I cannot find it for the life of me! Would anybody have a link to a script that wipes everything, like data, cache, dalvik etc., all in one? I've seen it somewhere but I can't remember where! It would be very useful!
TIA!

This will make your FS EXT3, but you can always modify it.

I actually prefer mike1986.'s super wipe script. Use it every time I flash a ROM. Here it is - http://goo.gl/hWSCt
