Just a quick comment, FWIW...
There was a time, when I was more of a noob than I am now, that I used to smirk at people who said they always wiped cache and data 2 or 3 times between loading different ROMs. I thought they were being a little anal - after all, a wipe's a wipe.
I've since learned differently. Recently I had a nasty FC problem that just wouldn't go away until I wiped data three times and then reflashed my ROM. Don't know why, but it works sometimes when nothing else will.
I thought it was anal too haha
I wipe 2 times before a flash.
Its weird how things work

Cvpcs wrote a great blog on wiping. I too have had nasty fc issues w/ our current recovery. You would think if it's not wiping correctly then 50 wipes would still produce the same bad wipe. I mean, the code doesn't change w/ each wipe we perform
Never had an issue with other recoveries on older phones. Properly written cwmr shouldn't need to wipe more than once b/c the code will only do what it's written to do. Improper coding leads to improper wiping. Just my $.02

Right, but if one wipe fails to wipe correctly do you suppose the second will clean up what it missed? I don't think code has become self aware of mistakes.

All I know is I always wipe data 3 times andncache/dalvik twice each.
And have never had 99% of the.problems I see others having after flashes such as FCs and all...unless it was a known bug everyone was experience.

Glad I'm not the only one laughing at this entire thread of puns of whiping, being anal about doing it over and over and wiping again!
You guys are right though, everytime a wipe is done, seems the later ones are much faster.
Apparently the more you wipe, the cleaner you get, it get's easier it is to wipe again.

Yeah, that was my point. It's definetly a progressive action. Very strange. I wudda thought like XOdus, that the code would do exactly the same thing each time.
The puns are fun.
They get faster b/c there's nothing else to wipe from the directory. My final post here.

Of course. But all punning aside, the point he was making is that they get progressively faster, indicating that not all is cleared with earlier wipes. There's no denying that multiple wipes can clear up sticky problems. Even if the reason is "bad code", that's still strange.

I hear ya. The blog article makes perfect sense. Hard to argue with the logic expressed there. And yet... experience tells me otherwise. As I said in the OP, I resenctly had a persistent FC problem with a system file - may have been ProgramMenuSystem.apk, can't remember for sure. Re-loaded my nandroid (that was fine before). While anyone would fully expect that to reslove the problem, the problem continued. Wiped again and re-flashed same version of my ROM. Problem still there. Wiped three times and re-flashed ROM again. Problem gone and never re-appeared.
I cannot explain why wiping data three times eliminated the problem that persisted even after wiping and re-flashing. Yet it did. Go figure.

Hey guys!
I recently started using Cozmo1's coZ rom and its great so far but I'm having a few issues.
This is the link to his rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337437
I would post this question the ROM page itself but it seems I cant because I'm a new member.
Anyways my problem has to do with data connectivity.
Very often, my phone simple doesn't have any reception bars and results in the ( / ) circle that indicates no reception.
The only way to fix this for me to is to toggle airplane mode on and off and after a minute or so it reenables.
The times I do have a consistent reception, after around 5 minutes of being idle, the data connection turns off completely. I thought this was
some kind of battery saving feature that automatically enables when I need to use data but the only way to get data is to toggle airplane mode on and off again.
This is giving me some serious issues as missing calls because of the ( / ) reception or extremely delayed text messages.
Also when I'm driving and need some quick directions, I can't use voice command to put in the address as this requires connectivity.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

So would you guys say the answer to my problem is getting a new modem?
Did flashing the coZ rom somehow install a new modem over the stock one and start causing problems?
Actually according to the rom thread ( I know, who actually reads those?), it says it comes packaged with the stock modem.

Back up all your important info, reboot into cwm recovery, go to mounts/ storage, wipe the /system, data, cache partitions. Go back one screen , go to advanced, wipe dalvik. Then reinstall the ROM. If it fixes it, then yer good. If not its either a hardware issue or a ROM issue.

Seems that recently the LEDs for the flash and what are also used for the flashlight are no longer operating on my husbands phone. I've tried wiping and reflashing JellyBlur v1.3 and trying various applications - but it seems that this doesn't help and that those LEDs just don't want to come on. Is there something that I can do to fix this or are they out for good?
I'm also running JellyBlur v1.3 on my phone and my flash/flashlight are working fine. While I'm waiting I'm going to try flashing another ROM to see if that solves the problem, but any tips or helpful posts are greatly appreciated. Thank You. :good:
Update It seems that switching ROMs didn't help it either. The flash still doesn't want to work nor does any flashlight application including stock. Not sure what happened, but hopefully someone can suggest a fix. (Could it be kernel or something similar related?)

Do you think flashing that might fix the flash issue? I've never encountered this problem before on our phones so it's new to me.
I would definitely make a backup of what you have now, do a good/clean wipe and install a nandroid backup from a different ROM in which the flash was working to see if the flash will work for you again.
If not, the flash may have just given up on you. =\
Note: Clear data 3x, cache once, and dalvik once. (I always recommend clearing data at least 3x because data doesn't always clear within the first or even second time around)

Good news. I was able to put ICS (Liquid Desensed36) and applied the new combo radio someone developed.
Using the Wi-Fi w/ root from play store using generic ics/jb (wlan0), channel 2, password protected, with router fix was able to fix his Wi-Fi tether.
Also the ICS Liquid Desenesed36 fixed his Flash and flashlight! (Don't know how; I don't question it) :good::good::good::good::good:
Gads. I've waited 2 years to root my phone and the first ROM I flash toasts it. I downloaded the Skyraider Zeus 1.3 and everything looked fine. When it rebooted, though, I realized I'm not able to do anything.
I slide the lock to get into the phone and I'm greeted by a dialog about in-call volume. All I can do is hit the Silent button and it switches between that and bluetooth volume. I can't figure out how to get past it so I can actually do anything.
Ideas?
ETA: Now I'm really sick to my stomach. I decided to restore from backup. Neither one of the backups I made prior to flashing are working.
Error while restoring /data!
WTF? Now I'm dead in the water.
4pm Update: I figured I have a brick now so I wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache. Now I'm trying to re-install Skyraider. I'm not holding my breath.
You're not bricked.
Go back into recovery...
Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wipe cache, and then wipe dalvik cache.
Flash the ROM.
You should be good.

Will do. What a debacle it started out to be. I think I'm ok now. I got the ROM working and for some reason although I wasn't able to boot into recovery and restore I have been able to restore my apps and data through Titanium. I have to say buying the Pro license was worth not having to acknowledge each install. :laugh:
One thing I noticed is that I used to be able to slide the task bar down and have two options. Initially it was set with notifications but I could select a tab to make quick selections like enable/disable the hotspot, etc. I'll have to figure out why I only see notifications now. Maybe that's just part of the ROM behavior.

That's strange that you don't see the quick settings tab.
Usually after flashing a ROM through recovery, I flash it an extra time so that I know it gets all the files through.
I know when I flashed Gingeritis 3D, I couldn't get the music player to stop force closing when I changed the music sound effects. The only way to fix these issues and a few others was to flash it a couple more times, without wiping anything at all. Dirty flashes (not wiping) could possibly fix any issues as long as you haven't changed any of the ROMs settings or set up anything.

Nusense is actually on my list. These are what I was initially looking at trying:
Liquid Smooth AOKP
SkyRaider Zeus 1.3
NuSense
I think I'm like most Tbolt users that are tired of waiting for ICS. I wasn't sure about Nusense because I was believing that Sense was the source of a lot of my problems. However, SkyRaider (even though it's neither ICS nor Sense-less) is running considerably better. My phone was next to useless. It might take 1-2 min just for the stupid thing to dial a # once it was selected. I'd tell people if I ever needed 911 I'd be dead before it even dialed. I also had a lot of problems with messaging and general performance. So maybe it was just a bloatware problem that was dragging me into the mud.
Now that I'm having a positive experience with SR I think I'm going to make NuSense my next one. It looks very promising. I appreciate the warning and help to steer me clear.

Thanks. I'll give it a shot. I don't use Netflix much from the phone so that's not a deal breaker.
How is it with data? I flashed NuSense yesterday morning and flashed back to SkyRaider last night. I couldn't stay connected. The data drops were horrible. It was odd. I'd have the 3G/4G icon like I was connected but couldn't surf/email/etc. Then other times I'd lose the 3G/4G altogether. Sometimes resetting the mobile data would work and other times it would just laugh at me.
I guess I didn't give it much of a chance since it only lasted <12 hours but it was driving me nuts. Nothing like spending time with family and not being able to surf and escape.

Ugh. That's not good. SkyRaider has been rock solid on data. The only thing I've really run into is it seems flashing my apps with app2zip only works on some things. I end up having to re-flash Kindle, Lookout, and a few other apps once I'm up and running again.
I was really looking forward to ICS but not if data drops are the norm.
I moved to an AOSP based ROM about 3 weeks ago, AOCP 4.6, and this week my phone started randomly rebooting on me. I've read through the AOCP thread and no one has mentioned the issue. I've read somewhere that random reboots can be a battery issue and mine is about a year old. From the limited info here can someone give me a few suggestions? I'm running the stock AOCP kernel too.

So I did a full wipe and decided to give ShoStock 3 a go, it worked great for about a day and then started to do the same reboot that I was getting with AOcP.
Any ideas? Could it be a Jelly Bean thing? Its almost like a boot loop I guess which happens even in recovery as I'm trying to wipe and reflash.

So I did a full wipe and decided to give ShoStock 3 a go, it worked great for about a day and then started to do the same reboot that I was getting with AOcP.

It's definitely not a jellybean thing, it's starting to sound like a hardware problem.

That's what I was afraid of... Especially since it's a replacement one from AT&T less than a month old.
Weird thing is right now it will boot into and stay in recovery but as soon as I try to do anything it resets. It will not let me reflash anything because it resets before it finishes flashing.
It will not go into download mode from recovery but I got it there with a jig and am flashing stock UCLE5 so maybe I can get another replacement from AT&T if it persists.
Full stock firmware and still having the phone reset on its own.... on the phone with AT&T now on a spare to get a replacement.
Final Edit:
AT&T is all out of SGS2's so they're sending me an SGS3 so I'll be moving to that forum.
Did you have to renew your contract to get that sgs3?
