Exactly like you'd install any ROM. Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik, flash latest firmware, flash ROM, flash GApps, reboot.

Hi guys im an xperia s LT26i user and i have an unlocked bootloader. Im currently running cm11 rom by raymanfx. The last time i tried to flash 4.1.2 rom i did NOT wipe system and i ended up getting a bootloop and soft brick. So if i am running cm11 and if i want to downgrade to 4.1.2 do i need to wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache? cache and dalvik is a must but if i wipe system and data will it work?
You should make a full wipe probably everytime you switch your ROM. So:
- factory reset
- wipe dalvik cache
- format system
So your entire system is clear and if this don't work flash latest Stock ROM first and then the ROM you'ld like to run on your phone

Ok so i formatted my whole phone with the suggestions you gave and when i flashed the existenz rom by niaboc79 which is the stock rom it says "E:Error executing updater binary" and "Error flashing zip" and im on TWRP Recovery mod version 2.6.3.0
Ok i fixed it i just had to flash doomlord kernel which gets me back to cwm then flashing again fixed the problem. Thanks alot for your help though it did help me at some stages.
Hi, newbie here. I have trouble with wifi. My phone is Xperia P
I installed aospa rom, at the beginning everything was fine but few hours later I couldnt turn wifi on. I didint know what to do, so I just factory reset the phone. Same thing happened.
Then I installed Blur Line (CM 11) rom, same thing happened again.
On advanced setting it says Mac adress unavailable (idk if this is related with problem)
I searched google and xda for possible solutions.
solution 1 is installing sqlite editor and changing "wifi_display_on" value to 0
this didnt work because it was already 0
solution 2: settings/wi-fi/advanced/wi-fi region code
this didnt work too. I select Turkey (I live in Turkey) but whenever I exit settings and turn back none of the region is selected.
solution 3: copy WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin file to somewhere
it is on motorola atrix hd thread, so idk if this can work for my phone too. I downloaded it but havent tried yet
Do you think it can work for my phone, or is there any "wifi fix file" for Xperia P
What sould I do now? Should I install another rom (slimkat, pacman, miui v5) or is there any solution for fixing wifi?
Thanks for replies.

My phone was on stock rom, rooted and cwm installed.
First I unlock bootloader via flashtool, then I flash the boot.img via flashtool
I flash the rom and gapps with cwm (wipe cache, dalvik, factory reset) but then I flash the rom with twrp (wipe data, cache etc) again.
i dont know if I wipe some important data
formerly I installed some stock base roms via cwm, and I didnt wipe anything extra this time
I backuped TA partition before unlock bootloader. Is wifi work if I relock bootloader and flash stock rom & kernel

Seems like some kernel modules are missing.
This is a sure method-procedure that I follow for flashing a new ROM on my and on my friends' XP.
1)flash stock JB firmware(ftf) using flashtool.
2)flash boot.img from the ROM you want to flash, using flashtool.
3)reboot in twrp using power button during boot up.
4)wipe data, cache, dalvik.
5)flash ROM + gapps and reboot.

I'm using custom rom which is lineageOs, and I want to update it through recovery (TWRP).

Just get the latest version, boot to TWRP, dirty flash latest version, wipe dalvik and cache, reboot.
No need to reflash Gapps.

alright, thanks for your help
Currently: I currently have a custom-recovery (OrangeFox) and Magisk successfully installed on stock ROM.
I am now ready to flash a custom-ROM (LineageOS for now) and am unsure whether or not I need to re-flash Magisk before rebooting to system... SO in general is the process:
1) Flash custom-ROM
2) Reboot to recovery and flash Gapps
3) ???? Should I reboot to recovery and flash Magisk then reboot to system OR just reboot to system and Magisk is retained... also, since root was accomplished via Magisk, will flashing a custom-ROM unroot the phone?
Any guidance is appreciated.
Yes, Flashing any custom rom will unroot your phone. You've to reflash magisk after flashing the rom.And make sure you backup everything.
1) Download the ROM and GApps of your choice
2) Make a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik, vendor)
3) Flash Rom Zip
4) Flash GAPPS package
5) Flash Magisk zip
6) Wipe cache!
7) And at last Reboot!
Can anyone please guide me, how to dirty flash ota updates of pixel experience? What steps need to be taken and in which order?
I flashed the pixel experience first time in the following order
1. ) Unlocked bootloader
2.) installed twrp
3,) Wiped data
4.) Flashed dfe zip
5.)Flashed rom
Booted
but I really need help in installing new update.
For a dirty install of an update, all you have to do is boot into TWRP and install the new ROM zip, then flash the DFE zip, then reboot into the system. You can wipe the cache and dalvik cache after installing the zips, but i dont think it is nesessary.
