I've been trying to install the latest CM11 builds, both the April 27th NIGHTLY and the May 3rd RC5, downloaded from the androidarmv6.org site.
Been using CWM 6.4.0.7.
Steps taken: Reset to factory (wipe /data and /cache). Flashed the image. Rebooted to phone.

It reboots okay and it allows me to make an Emergency Call, but, the Android Setup wizzard stops when I select the right language (the right language comes detected/preselected, actually) and hit the 'Next' button (the kind of 'Play' arrow). It just force closes on me.

I tried reverting to the CM March 17th build which worked fine before and it does the exact same thing on me, too... while it did work before...!

What am I missing?? Hope some can help!
Thx!!!

Flash PhilZ Recovery, Go To Wipe Menu In PhilZ Recovery and Select "Clean to install a new ROM", Now Flash ZIP and then only wipe data, if it does not work, delete setupwizard.apk from /system/app inside the zip and flash again

Thanks for your quick answer!
Going over the installation instructions for PhilZ and consecutively a new ROM, I found I had missed one step: format /system before flashing a new ROM...
With my "old" CWM 6.4.0.7 still on, I managed to install the RC5 build from androidv6arm.org... And it seems to work just fine.

that's what "clean to install a new ROM" does i.e format /system, /data, /cache etc :p BTW IT IS CWM 6.0.4.7 aand you are typing 6.4.0.7, if I am wrong then please give me the link. :p:D

LOL, me and numbers... could just as well have typed 6.0.7.4 and still meant 6.0.4.7. I got not the latest (PhilZ' ends with an 8, mine with a 7, so, likely 6.0.4.7 ;p )
I did check out PhilZ but as I had nothing I couldn't open a terminal window to install it per the instructions that come with it...
