I'm running CM 10.1 right now and am thinking of going back to stock MD4, rooted. I downloaded and flashed the most recent CWM via ROM Manager and am trying to figure out what's next. Do I go into recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and factory reset then flash the MD4 zip file I have? Really need some guidance. Thanks in advance

Yep, wipe system/ cache/ dalvik and factory reset then flash away... if you do get any problems (you shouldn't) go into recovery and wipe data also (make sure to move anything important on internal storage to a secure location, like an sd card or your computer)

This is what I have running right now. So I assume one I wipe everything I won't be running 4.2.2 or MD4..Correct? Or incorrect?

You would still have the same baseband as that doesn't change with a wipe, that's your modem and the only way to change that is to install a different one... 4.2.2 will change to 4.1.2 if you install an md4 tw Rom...

So if I just wipe and reset.. Then I'll have the MD4 and 4.2.2? Do I have to re root?
Thanks for your patience in answering my million questions... But if it's any consolation you're teaching me stuff I didn't know. Knowledge is power, right! :)

You won't have to reroot as I'm guessing the room your flashing is already rooted, if going back to atw Rom you won't have 4.2.2 no matter what you do since we don't have a4.2.2 tw Rom yet... md4 is 4.1.2

Was having some issues after I went from CM 10.1 to stock root. I downloaded files in post 2 of this thread.

Wiped cache/dalvik and reset. Now when I try to flash ANYTHING I get E:signature verification failed. I can't flash CWM-Touch-6023naddict,zip or MD4_update_full-DeOdex.zip or StockMD4KenrekOptimizied.zip

None of them. Get the same signature verification failed message. Please help as soon as possible! I don't know what I've done to my poor Android :eek:
