Everything else is fine but its sort of annoying to keep getting fc messages and yes i did fix permissions Help! sorry i meant cm6...
I would recommend wiping your dalvik cache in Clockwork. If that doesn't fix your issues then you'll need to do a factory reset and re-load the CM6 stable.

You have posted this question in the wrong forum on a thread that has nothing to do with your issue.
[Q] "Clean Cache" & "Full Wipe" with xRecovery prior to flashing new rom?
Is it true that the best way to keep your phone in optimal state, is to clean the cache and do a full wipe with xRecovery every time before you flash your X10 with any (new) rom?
A friend told me that if you don't clean cache and do a full wipe before you flash to a new rom, the cache content of the rom you're on cannot be removed after flashing to a new rom because the new rom has no re-collection of the contents of the cache from the previous rom you were on.
That's bs... Xrecovery cleans the cache and wipes for you, watch what it says while you're flashing and you will see.
I always recommend doing it anyway just in case, full wipe, then wiping cache partition and finally dalvik cache.
I don`t know and really don`t care
I simply just wipe/clean EVERYTHING i can before any installation.
Result?
Never had most problems users have. Ever. So i will continue

But if it is bs and xRecovery does it for you. Then why do you recommend doing it anyway? You got me slightly confused here.

All I'm saying is if you forget it's not a huge deal, and what he is saying isn't true...
I do it anyway just because when I had a htc hero devs used to recommend you did, so force of habit, yet I know for a fact that what he said isn't true. It could perhaps miss some data which is why you should still wipe, but that data would definitely not be stuck in limbo forever..

No problem
if not switching roms, does it make a difference to your system performance to occasionally wipe the dalvik cache and cache partition?

I did it on beta 4 and it actually made my performance wayyy worse.. so much so that I had to go back to an earlier backup I had made. MY linpack dropped from 35 to about 6 and the battery started getting super hot, and was dropping insanely fast.
I wouldnt recommend it during usage of a rom. What you can do is get a cache cleaning app and use that regularly! I use cache cleaner ng

+1 and here are a few more characters
I think this will help you get a "clean" install and saves you from other problems later?
Or is there Cons to always doing this?

Many people do just in case since something happens. Just backup everything first!
IMO...

i would. if you don't, you might get stuck in a bootloop. some roms don't require you to (ie...CM updates). but even then, it doesn't hurt to do it after so many CM updates. now, if you don't want to lose your data, i'd recommend using titanium backup...if you haven't already.
Rule of thumb would be as follows:
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory/data reset.
Flash ROM.
Wipe Dalvik.
Wipe cache.
Factory data/reset.
This should keep you safe. Only takes an extra minute to do.
Some ROM's will wipe for you, but I always do a manual wipe first anyway.

In CWM select advanced on the main menu and you will see wipe Dalvik there.

Modem and radio will not be changed, so you don't need to reflash them.
Since you have to wipe before flashing CM10:
·Contacts should be synced with Google. Just in case, use Go Backup (or another one, but Go Backupis great and free) to backup.
·Pictures/videos will be in the internal/external SD card so they won't be deleted (don't wipe internal/external sd card...).
·SMS/MMS will be lost too. Use Go Backup to backup.
·Apps: Use Go Backup to backup.

Hey,
You can theoretically just flash CM10 over CM9 and keep all your data... I suggest doing a full backup of CM9 first though. As for your modem/Radio, no need to reflash... You can keep the one you'Re running as long as it suits your needs.

Ok, thanks for your answers, i'll try it...
Somebody can tell me which difference there is between 9 and 10 ? It is interesting to upgrade ?

In a i9100, not so much (no hwcomposer so not Project Butter), athough it works great (I use CM10 since first day in i9100).
i9100G has HWcomposer working so everything is smooth and has official nightlies, so I'd say definitely yes. Anyway, just try. If you don't like... flash CM9 back!
Best luck

You said me "Since you have to wipe before flashing cm10"
But which wipe must i do ? data factory, cache partition,...
And some people say that after flashing cm10, must do a wipe to... really necessary ? If yes, which wipe ?
Sorry, i don't understand all these notion of wipe... i read doc about it but...
If somebody could answer me quickly, because i'm downloading cm10 and i would try it... I'm little exciting...
Cordially.

The firsts versions of CM10 required wipe data (factory reset) before and after flashing.
Before flashing, wipe data (factory reset) and cache (I think factory reset also wipes cache), and if you wish, advanced->Wipe dalvik cache.
Later versions don't require wipe after anymore (I don't wipe after flashing anymore), but you lose nothing wiping after flashing if you want to be sure...

Thanks for your quick answer...
Then if i choose "cm-10-20120824-NIGHTLY-i9100g.zip", i must do a "wipe data/factory reset" and a "wipe cache partition", after i install my cm10.zip, and after, if i want, i can do again the same thing "wipe data/factory reset" and a "wipe cache partition".
And normaly, i won't lost data in my sdcard and external sd ?

Just wipe data/factory reset.
And no, you won't lose data in sd memory.
PS: I never ask anyone to press the Thanks button, but after all these answers, if I helped you it would be nice you press the button in my posts (and the other who replied too)

By the way, many of your questions already have thousands of replies over the internet and you "should" read and try before asking "simple" things. But anyway...
Hi guys. I am having a very frustrating time with my s3.
I recently flashed CM 10.1 and all was fine until today when I wiped delvik cache and now my drop down menu is gone.
I cant pull it down nor do i get a preview of notifications when they come in.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thank you

Read somewhere that it would fix my snap chat problem.
What will happen if I factory reset with a non stock ROM. Will it just reinstall factory ROM?

No. It wipes /data which is where your data is. It cannot modify /system which is where your rom is. Besides, that would mean you need 2 roms on your phone at all times if it could restore that.
have a read of "understanding the basics before rooting" thread (in general > Sticky roll-up) for a better understanding of your phone
