I have an ATRIX currently running Alien build #4 rom, using the clockworkmod recovery found in rom manager. And whenever I try to install cm7 it installs fine but then keeps reanimating the cm7 android bot on a skateboard over and over and over again, can anybody help?

Pretty sure you skipped the data wipe part of the instructions. Boot into cwm and do a factory data wipe. Then try booting up.

I thought it did an automatic data wipe like the Alien rom, no?

Negative. You have to wipe do a factory wipe after flashing cm7, before booting into it for the first time.

Yes, but next time please ask questions like this in the thread for the rom that you want to switch to as this question did not warrant the starting of a new thread! We already have way to many threads like this cluttering up the forums!

ok sorry. So all I do is boot into recover and wipe cache then install?

For me I leave it on charge and at 100% I boot into recovery wipe cache, devlik cache, then factory reset but you may get buy without having to do factory reset since although different it still is cm 7 but if you don't factory reset and it won't boot do a factory reset then it should boot

It does support them but not as a blur rom does cm7 puts internal under mnt/emmc and I think miui best I remember is the opposite. But mods can be done to switch them.

Ok I can't find anything to answer this question. Therefore I am asking, because I just don't believe this has been asked be4. I am running Revolution HD 6.3.1. My phone(HTC INSPIRE 4G) sometimes just slows down to a halt. It started about a week ago. I have uninstalled a good many apps, and cleared plenty of space. Prior to rooting, and flashing I had this problem and restoring to factory setting fixed this. Ok now that I've explained that, the Rom(as stated above) I'm on has the option to do this. I want to know if I do this if it will "restore back to just flashed condition" although it says factory condition, but Is a flashed ROM. Will it just simply put, brick my device, or reinstall the Rom as if I had just flashed it. Thanks ahead of time.

Ir you factory reset the phone you will get stuck in the splash screen. If you want to go back to stock, the restore a backup from CWM or flash a stock Rom from CWM. Factory reset does not work in custom roms...

Thanks for that response. I'm not interested in stock at all. I just wanted to know if it would work. Root and flashed Roms are always smoother, even if some of them have bumps. Truthfully I'm waiting on a RC Rom from Existz, as I just want a stock android experience

In CWM wipe data and cache and it should be some sort of factory reset.

Thats what the man said.
So I have my N7 rooted, installed with cwm, and when I try to install CM10 Nightly's I always get the problem of sitting at the same boot screen and never making it past that... Is there any problems?
Other Information: I reset to stock a couple of times due to this problem....

Do you wipe data and cache before trying to boot CM10 for the first time?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Well I've used CM10 before M1 was announced, and then it worked, but now it doesn't. (After M1 Release)
Should I try flashing through CMD in Windows instead? I tried it through Recovery Mode before and it gave me the same result...
Kind of at loss here because I really wanted to try the M1 releases but they won't flash properly...
Sry almost forgot about your question....
I did do a data wipe and same for cache, and even tried Dalvik, but I'll give it another shot as I haven't done them all at once yet.
I'll post the results....

Long story short...
I wiped all three options (Wide Data, Wide Cache, Wipe Dalvik Cache) and it worked
I feel stupid (and a lot like a noob...)

Hey I have a DX...it is rooted. But I'm giving it to my daughter and I want to wipe it before I do. If I just do the system factory reset will it lose the root? Any help on this will help. I have already manually taken all of my apps and pics off of the phone just need to set it up to be hers. Thank in advance.
If you still have ClockwordMod Recovery installed, just wipe data.

Use ROM manager to install cwm, than do as he said above.

Okay, now that I have that done...Did the wipe through Recovery Screen. The phone won't reboot...it's stuck on M screen upon reboot. What did I do wrong?
PS ~ Looked around on here and it said to do another wipe because of the sticking on Motorola Logo screen...I did that...it still sticks at Logo Screen. Did I brick this phone?? Please tell me I didn't and there is a way to fix this. Battery is fully charged, can take it out and get to recovery screen...it is just not going passed the Logo screen.
you can never loose root from a factory wipe .
From what I know Rom manager and bootstrap dont play nice.
Sounds like it's sbf time.
Listen just sbf, root, install boostrap and be done with it .
Rom manager can be a pita and unless you're going to be installing roms, not worth it imo.

No need to start a second thread for this... I'll say it again, have you wiped data in between ROMs? Or what are you doing after installing the ROM if you've wiped it?

Make sure to wipe everything before installing a new ROM, then run fix permissions (advanced options in CWM recovery) from either your recovery or from ROM Manager. After reinstalling all your apps and settings, make sure to fix permissions again.
Wipe system before you install your ROM, in addition to wiping cache, dalvik, data. If you do it right it will work

Typically unnecessary, as it its generally wiped during the install process.

I like to be sure, and I haven't had any problems installing ROMs on my N7, and I've flashed pretty much every one there is, kernels too. There have been ROMs that liked to be flashed 3 times for no real reason, so I say its good practice to manually format partitions, caches etc yourself, even if it's supposed to be done on install. If I do it manually, I know that it has been done
