If you just flash the new nightly (and I'd reflash the gapps too) you don't need to wipe anything and you won't loose ant data

Ok cool. I have couple of questions if you don't mind.
What do I flash first? ROM or GAPPS?
I heared some nightlies have issues, is there somewhere I can look to find them?
Will I need to reflash Franco Kernel?
thanks

[Q] Flashing over CM Rom but with Trinity Kernel

Hey guys.
For 4.2.X JB, Cyanogenmod has 10.1 Nightly builds...
So they will release per week or earlier...
So If I flash Rom Cyanogenmod 10.1 NOW, then Kernel Trinity Seven
If they release a new Nightly build, i pretty much have to Flash the ROM then Trinity Seven again, Over and Over until a Stable Build is built?
If that so, then im just gonna wait for a final build

yes, you have to reflash the kernel after each rom(and gapps) flash. why wait? it takes seconds to flash the kernel afterward? you dont have to flash each nightly if you dont want, but there is some kind of fix or change for each cm nightly.

why so much work? make a nandroid weekly, or every two weeks, same with titanium. my crackflashing habit never included so much work. i nandroided once a month, same with titanium. also, i always kept the last good rom in storage. i flashed rom, gapps, kernel. if things went bad, id just reflash the previous rom/gapps/kernel without wiping instead of restoring backups. much faster that way.

What? Stop doing all that.
Thats a complete waste of time.
Keep one single basic backup. Dont back up anything else.
Flash the new nightly over the old one. Nothing is lost. Even if an app was lost it will automatically be reloaded by the play store. I can factory reset and be exactly where I was automatically in 10 min.
Flash the rom flash the kernel. Done!

[Q] Going back to original kernal.

I'm thinking of flashing Trinity kernel on my Nexus 7. If I have troubles after flashing the Trinity kernel and want to revert back to my present kernel do I restore a nandroid backup or is there something else I have to do to get present kernel back? Am currently running CM 10.1 jb 4.2.1 on my Nexus 7. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Just do a dirty flash (flash CM10.1 again without factory reset, just wipe cache and dalvik). Your kernel will be overwritten.

yup, thats the easiest way. but you dont have to wipe anything, not even dalvik or cache. you can always extract the boot.img from the cm rom and flash it via fastboot too.
Thanks simms. I'm still trying to figure everything out just got my Nexus for Christmas.

Is possible have oficial CM in 4.4 for Note 2 ?

Samsung will upgrade to 4.4
I wonder if this makes possible an official update from Cyanogen team, as the official ROMs from Cyanogen stopped in 4.3
Does anyone have any idea if we still upgrade the CM?
Thanks for attention.

There is unofficial 4.4 CM for Note 2 runs good
Check out OmniROM 4.4 and SlimKat 4.4
Not much difference between those 3 Roms anyways don't worry about CM

Flashing is easy
After you root and install custom recovery, all you have to do is download the ROM and transfer it to your SD card
Enter recovery, wipe dalvik cache, cache and data, find the ROM ZIP file, and flash!
The only way to soft brick your phone is to flash the LTE version of the rom or to flash rom without wiping cache and data
I personally do a full wipe (dalvik, data, system, internal storage , cache)

[Q] Where do I find the stock cm11 kernel.

OK so basically my phone is running the cm11 ROM. I installed a separate kernel the other day now I want to revert to the original kernel that came with cm11. Where can I find/download it. Could someone please post the link. Thank you
Reflash the cm rom again, problem solved.

No I don't want to lose my data
You won't lose anything if you don't wipe them.

[Q] Flashing ROM failure

Hi,
Yesterday I went to flash CyanogenMod 11 on my Galaxy s4 (GT19505) and it wouldn't work. The first time, it started then went to a black screen. I turned my phone back on to find it wouldn't boot up at all (I waited over 10 minutes for it). I can access recovery mode, and when I did it again, it said md5 couldn't be found.
I used Odin to flash the most recent CT auto root and then moved over TWRP (with Odin) and I had no trouble with these.
I accidentally moved TWRP 2.5 over instead of 2.7. I was running 4.4 KitKat on my phone. Could it be 2.7 isn't compatible with CM 11?
Help!?
It should just work.
Flash the latest TWRP or Philz.
Perform a full wipe.
Flash Cyanogenmod.
What version are you trying to flash from Cyanogenmod? Use the nightlys and if one doesn't work try the version before that one.
ps you can skip the step nexttime about flashing cf-auto root. You don't have to do this. You can just flash the recovery you want.

I'm using a stable version. I haven't downloaded any latest ones. How would i do that if I can't access the phone? Boot it to download then go from there?
are you sure you (even) flashed a (compatible) kernel?

Is there any difference between 19500 and 19505? I'll try a new CM download...knowing my uncertainty I probably got an incompatible rom.
How stable are the nightlies?

You should only flash a rom for YOUR model phone, and for me the nightlies were stable enough to use.

So I redid TWRP, now what about CM 11? TWRP uses the jfltexx in its name...do I just use Odin to move CM?
So, I installed TWRP 2.7 and it worked. All is good, currently enjoying CM!!!
Now the battery is saying it's at 0%...how do I fix that?
Now my password isn't working for some reason. I did a restore with TWRP and now I can get into my phone. Fix?

No. I just tried it and the same problem occurred. It's no biggie, I can reformat the settings myself. Thanks for the help.
