Hello,

I've rooted and flashed cleanrom 5.0 to my samsung galaxy s3 probably around a month or two ago.I was just wondering, how I could switch to another rom? I'm interested in trying synergy rom, and figured I'd give it a shot. I've backed up all the apps I need to in Titanium backup, so I have those. I downloaded the rom already as well, should I put the rom my external memory and just clear all data on my phone in recovery? I'm a bit confused, if anyone could offer any help it would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I have TWRP2.2 by the way

Thank you for reading.

Read directions all the way through before performing actions.

Google your phone and Roms right after . Download the mod into your sd card. If you have adb u can use that to reboot into your recovery. If not press the power button and select reboot then Select recovery. Or use the external functions of the phone to boot into the recovery. Then wipe data then wipe cache then install zip from sdcard select the zip and select the Rom. Use volume keys to navigate down to yes confirm it and it should go through if it the correct Rom for your phone.

I am not responsible for any bricking of your phone just a reasonable person trying to reach out and help
 
Yeah I know how to get into recovery lol. I'm in recovery, should I select cache and wipe that, and then select format data? I'm assuming that's what you mean by "wipe data". I'm using team win recovery project by the way.
 
basically, boot into recovery. factory reset, wipe system, data, cache and dalvik. install(flash) another rom, wipe dalvik&cache, reboot. fiddle with rom. make backup. repeat until you're a fashaholic.
