Over the years many people have written guides for installing custom ROM's, and most of then have different steps. I understand certain devices, and custom ROM's need specific install steps. I'm looking for a general consensus on what is currently the best steps and/or order when installing a new custom ROM. Here a few sets of steps that Ive found online. Please let me know which one you think is the best set of instructions for most people.

EXTRA NOTES/TIPS found online:
Depending on your situation (see below), you may also need to wipe your data and/or cache. So when should you wipe your data and cache? Here are a few general guidelines:
-If you're flashing a ROM different than the one you're currently running, you should wipe data and cache. Essentially, this performs a factory reset on your phone, and you will lose all your data.
-If you're flashing a new version of a ROM you're already running, we recommend wiping your data and cache—but you should be able to get away with just wiping the cache, meaning you get to keep all your apps and settings.
