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

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] 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?

install the latest twrp recovery. do an advanced wipe [select everything *besides internal storage*] wipe the phone. download the cm11 rom based on your phone version and also download gapps 4.4.x package from CM site. I was running CM11 fine but whenever I used my 4g internet the phone kept crashing and restarting...
I am running CloudyG3 rom now and I like it better than CM11 for the moment.

actually , download CM11 and gapps BEFORE wiping your phone
so make sure you have the zips on your sdcard before you start wiping

Are you using cmw or twrp? I believe your stock rom is 4.4 kitkat

twrp. I dont know what you mean by stock rom because this is my first time I did. My device is running 4.4.2. and I chose for kernel 4.4 version of tw.
I think that you have to re-flash a new rom. Then, you have to retry installing root and the kernel.

I agree with msmlz, if you have nandroid restore it or download the firmware in sammobile and reflash it and before flashing the custom kernel again, read the thread, see if someone face bootloop like you. Hope someone with experience on it could help you, I never install custom kernel, just update the last stock kernel on my rooted stock rom.
