Did system, cache and dalvik wipe.
Flashed CM 13 and tried to flash gapps 13, but all I could install was the pico version, because my system partition was too small.
After doing it I needed to wait about 2 minutes, then the app optimization started...96 apps and after that it kept rebooting and doing it all over again.
I again wiped cache and dalvik, but no change.
Any suggestions? I don't want to wipe data if possible.

Hi,
I've recently done a succesful flash of Blisspop after a full wipe.
Now I want to update, but I don't want to do a full wipe. Simply installing the zip on-top gives a permanent booting screen. Can you update without starting from scratch?
Did you wipe cache & dalvik after flashing updated zip?
I did not. Is that the only required extra step? And will I lose data if I do so?

No, you only lose data when you wipe the data partition
In recovery, you'll see different named partitions, cache, dalvik cache, system, data, etc etc
If you wipe System, you wipe the ROM
If you wipe Data, you wipe your user data
Caches are just temp partitions, safe to wipe any time, only side effect is a longer first boot as Android needs to re-cache everything
But yes, you do need to wipe the caches when updating to a newer version of the same ROM/Droid version, and no you won't lose your data
Here's how I do it:
Wipe System
Wipe Caches
Flash new ROM
Flash new Gapps
Flash SuperSU if needed
Wipe Caches again
Reboot
Result = New ROM with no loss of data
That's a clean flash, a dirty flash is how you did it without wiping System
If you are moving to a newer version of android, or a different ROM, wiping data becomes more necessary, especially if the move is to an older version of droid
Thanks. I'll try it out.
Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache and format /System
is necessary ""after""
or before ???
or both times when WE port the new rom ? ?
or why we do it if we not do it what happened?
When you decide to install a new ROM, then you have to do those wipes,
Cache and Dalvik Cache are related to every APK in the ROM, when you start boot the ROM for the first time, Dalvik cache indexes all APKs and cache it's dex files into the Cache partition, that happens only once, and you can actually see this when Android tells you it's "Optimizing Apps x of x",
So, what happens if installed a new ROM without wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache?,
Dalvik cache won't index the new APKs from the new ROM, and you'll end up having a ROM full of FC msgs,
So, that's why you need to wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache when you install a new ROM, before the ROM or after that won't matter, but don't boot up a new ROM without wiping those partitions.

Hi, I'm from Nougat 4.5.14 and these are the steps I made:
1. Flash codeworx then reboot to twrp
2. Wipe cache and dalvik
3. Install OS 5.0.2
4. Install magisk
5. Wipe cache dalvik
6. Reboot to system
However after rebooting to system it started bootlooping so I decided to reflash OS and wipe data as recommended. So I power off the phone then hold volume down + power to boot to recovery. However when I boot to recovery, file folders started to become random names like its encrypted. Luckily I backed up my internal storage and data so I'm okay to flash everything but can someone help me how to fix the twrp random file names and the steps for reflashing the OS?
EDIT: I rebooted to recovery, wiped dalvik, cache, and data. flashed OS 5.0.2, wipe dalvik cache, flashed magisk, wipe dalvik, reboot to system and it does not proceed to circling dots. So what I did is just, wipe dalvik, cache, data, flashed OS, wipe again dalvik cache, boot to system and it proceeds to circling dots however it takes so long that I can consider this as bootloop. I'm very tempted to wipe everything (data, system, internal storage, cache, dalvik) then just flash again the OS but I don't know if it would work so I hope someone could give me some steps how to fix this
Edit 2: This is solved now: What I did is just after trying the flash OS with no magisk, I booted to system. However, i just dont boot at all so I decided to boot to recovery again, but this time the recovery is the stock one. I wipe everything I could including cache, system reset, and data (music pics etc) and it booted to the system in no time but everythings lost.
You have to format data... Not just wipe it. From TWRP go to format data, write yes, and let it format everything. Then transfer over to the phone all the fil a you need (ROM, kernel, no verity zip) and flash them as per the instructions of your rom thread. You should be fine.

Use TWRP 360_10-1, it is the best for POCO M3, you overdid it a bit with that installation, it also depends on what firmware you have installed.
