Stock being stock Google?
Wipe data/factory reset,
Flash CM10,
Flash Franco.
Skip wiping caches altogether, no need to reboot in between flashing the ROM and the kernel.

If cm is already installed, you don't need to wipe anything if it's just the kernel. Just make sure you always have a recent nandroid

dont have to wipe anything, just flash it over.
note that when you flash a new nightly of cm, you will need to reflash the kernel.

Is there a list of supported devices somewhere so I can check to see if my LG E975 is supported?
Thanks!

[Q] What do I need to do when I just update my ROM?

I have ParanoidAndroid 3.15 installed along with Trinity kernel.
I want to update it to ParanoidAndrodid 3.60.
Do I need to wipe everything and then proceed flashing the ROM, gapps and the kernel or I just wipe cache and then flash the updated ROM?

Did you try it? I'm pretty paranoid about my Nexus 4, I don't want to brick it.

That's how you update any ROM. If you want to do a clean install then do a factory reset flash ROM gapps and kernel reboot. Kernel is optional

if youre updating a rom, a dirty flash is fine(without wiping anything), just flash the updated rom, gapps, kernel, and any other mods you use. when installing a rom, your cache/dalvik automatically get wiped, so no need to do it during a dirty flash. if you are installing a new rom, then you have to wipe data(factory reset).

[Q] Custom ROM, kernel and recovery

Hey everyone!
I would like to flash P.A.C.-MAN ROM on my phone, and also a new kernel, and I need some help with that.
As of right now, I am rooted with DjEmbey's root-method, and have BusyBox and SuperSU installed. I have a regular i9505, XXUAME2, 4.2.2, official device status and all Know related items removed. Do I need to do some kind of updating of my device, before doing any flashing, or do I only have to wipe /data, cache etc.?
I've read some in the P.A.C. Q&A thread on how to flash a custom recovery. But before I flash a new recovery, should I format /data, cache and Dalvik cache? I've heard people recommend TWRP over CWM, is it more stable or have better functionality, is TWRP compatible with P.A.C.?
For a new kernel, I've thought about this one. Is it compatible with P.A.C. ROM?
After I've flashed a custom recovery, should I always format /data, cache, Dalvik cache and fix permissions, before and after every kind of flashing?
Is BusyBox and (or) SuperSU reserved when flashing a new ROM and kernel, will it be included in P.A.C. or do I have to install it manually?
Thanks in advance for all answers

There are plenty of guides and Google is your friend.
Flash recovery via Odin. I use CWM never had a problem. If your nervous about flashing get the SGS4 flasher and flash recovery through the app. Then reboot and jump into recovery volume up + home button + power ( let go of the power button once you see the screen turn on). Do a full wipe cache davlik. I also go to mounts and format /system. Then install your ROM from the SD card. Good luck.
Echoe ROM. Rock Solid. Stable. Blazingly Fast with Adam Kernel.

can't boot.

I rooted the galaxy y, installed CWM, wiped cache and data..etc., installed a custom rom but the phone can't boot..stuck in bootscreen. I tried to change the kernel to CM kernel, and install a stable cm7, everything worked, but still no boot... what can I do?

I've tried NukaRom V1.1.0 and CM7..happened the same..even with CM Kernel

Did you reboot to recovery after flashing kernel & mount system before flashing rom
Instructions to flash cm7
go to cwm
mount system
flash percy's cm #2 kernel
reboot to recovery
format system data cache
mount system data cache
flash cm7 zip
flash gapps (optional)
format data
restart
If you get bootloop remove sim card - if it boots change your stock rom firmware via odin
For stock based roms do as above but use a stock based kernel

[Q] Bootloops when flashing cm11 nightly!

Hi all I have my LG G2 right now installed with the malladus-vs980-2.0.1 rom and I'm trying to install CM 11 most recent nightly. I performed a factory data reset and wipe dalvik cache and cache but still once finishing install and rebooting my phone goes into a boot loop. Is it because my baseband version is on the current 24a? If so how do revert back to 12b?
