Try using the stock setup by neopeek. Use the latest version 1.6.

i think the Wistilts kernal might be your problem. Use the one thats stock in CWM 1.6. I've gotten at least half a doze roms running very well

Nope, I would say it's not stable.

I tried it with FRX06, and eventually it did seem to settle out - but the first few boots were FC city.

I don't really see any tangible benefits - I know neopeek listed some, but I don't really think they're worth the effort. No offense to his efforts, he obviously worked hard to get it working... but it seems like a lot of work for very little reward.

Using a GUI recovery like CWM becomes necessary with NAND, but I don't see the point on SD card installs. To each their own.

Ya, i kinda agree. I think the main reason he did it was to make it easier for devs to make roms, but the rom development on his site sorta died about two weeks before cwm's release and hasn't picked up since. Its nice to be able to backup and restore, but less useful when there are so few roms.

How do you install a new completely different build (example going from CherryPie to Gingerbread)? Can I just run the gingerbread zip from my SD card or do I have to completely wipe all 4 partitions somehow? I'm getting an installation stopped/aborted trying to install different builds.

Format at least data and system. You obviously don't have to wipe the FAT32 partition, that would be bad, and cache - is pretty much useless.

It's in the menu options, can't remember the exact sequence but yea... format data and sys if you're switching builds. If you're just upgrading a build, I would imagine you can keep data and just wipe the system partition.

can this method of preparing to load another build be confirmed?
let me get this straight,just initialize cwm wipe data and sys then load up new update zip?
i would like to try this but dont want to screw up a perfectly running build

Well if you're switching builds, then that's exactly what you're doing - screw up a perfectly running build :p.

Seriously tho, formatting data and sys will start over. Wipe them clean. So anything from your current build will be gone, bulldozed - so you can then install a new build.

I'm sure you already know this but, backup your current build using CWM before you clear the data and system partitions. If you don't like the new build, clear the partitions again and restore the good build. Very easy to do.

Ah yes, I should've mentioned this. Perhaps one of the best features of CWM ;).
