Should I wipe the system partion
What would happen if I didn't wipe it
Is it safer to keep the system in case flashing failed

You can dirty flash no problem. Just wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing.

It won't. I recommend using the Russian Twrp from 4pda.
So I don't wipe anything then flash it(don't wipe system)
After flashing clear cache and dalvic cache
Is this twrp the ' Russian fix one '

Search for twrp-3.3.1-2-davinci.zip from brigudav. If you are flashing MIUI 11 Android version 9 (11.0.2.0 PFJEUXM), you don't need to wipe anything, just cache afterwards.

How do I flash from L To a custom AOSP KITKAT？ Do I need to flash the factory image at first or I just boot into recvoery and flash the cutom rom?Did anybody know? THX!
To be safe, you'd do a factory image flash. That way you know you have a good starting point. There's the boot image, including the ramdisk, and radio (depending on what platform you're running on) that would have changed.
Or, if you're feeling lucky, clean wipe and flash your new ROM. What's the worse case scenario? You have to do it twice.

The safest way is
Download L port
factory reset once
wipe cache dalvik
flash ROM
wipe cache and dalvik again
reboot
done,
Gapps included.
I never got problem with these steps.

Hey,guys,I have just ask the L's developer ,he said that the L he developed uses the same baseband and bootloader as the Kitkat,so there is no need to flash a factory image at first , instead ,we can just directly flash the Kitkat aosp ,Thanks for his kindness!

That's what he meant. Format system and data. You'll find that option on the custom recovery.

You just need to get a flashable one and your good to go. Just wipe system, data and caches and flash it. I tried both ways by recovery and by script and its the same experience. But if you follow the script and flash through PC you'll surely lose all your data.
I have a weird issue with my N9005 (hlte). I just got it new and am still a little inexperienced with flashing it. Preblem occurs when flashing ANY CM12 based rom. Flashing works well with TWRP 2.8.5.0 but once Android booted just after enetring my PIN the display turns off and I can't do anything and have to hard reboot my phone. CM11 runs without any issues
I'd relly like to go for CM12 so any help will be appreciated.

I performed a full wipe before flashing. Any advantages wiping again, once flashed?

If you read installation instructions from temasek it says clear dalvik and cache. For good measure. No full wipe after flash. Only cache and dalvik
If i full wipe my phone after flashing ... i got no System at all ...
It looks like -> this <-

Haha I did correct myself and told you to not full wipe after flash. Only do that before flashing. Wipe dalvik cache and cache after flashing.
Do a clean install and try again. Full system, data wipe and caches in recovery. Use twrp doing that. Then flash and wipe cache and dalvik. Reboot. Use the latest build 8.7

hey buddy,
You should know what error code 7 means. It means that the data (present in the phone) is incompatible with the ROM you're trying to install.
What should you do ?
Try wiping up the data and cache and dalvik cache then install the ROM
Try wiping up system along with data and cache and dalvik cache, then install the ROM
