Data Wiped Failed me during ODIN reboot, now I'm stuck, help.
That's a bit vague. What kind of wipe was it? Dalvik cache? DATA partition? Factory reset?
Or, you could just Odin back to stock

No, after ODIN finished it goes through the formating of all of your system, data, etc, yet it reached my Data and said DATA WIPE FAILED, and i already i tried ODINing back...
Here's my other thread:

Say I'm using the August firmware now and I want to use back the may firmware or stock rom, can Odin do it? Will I run into any problems?

It will not cause any problems..but you may run into bootloops and then you might have to delete your data..

Data delete as in factory reset. .everything on your internal memory..but it is a "if"..I am not saying it will happen for sure..and boot loops due to conflicts between your current system files and the files you will flash. .

All data - cache, dalvik cache and factory reset.... Please note, if you use pc odin to flash back a stock rom it generally wipes the internal sd card. BACK UP YOUR INFO 1st...

Yep it doesn't. two days ago I flashed back and was wondering why my device status was still modified despite resetting the flash counter. Turned out I had to restore to factory defaults.
My Amaze is rooted and when I try to check in on Latitude, have tried with check in automatically checked and unchecked, it fails check in and says try again later. I have tried with Wifi on and off, and no difference. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Try clearing cache

How do you clear the cache?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
I cleared the Google Maps cache, if that's what you were referring to, bu that didn't help.
What about cache and dalvik in your recovery tried clearing? Last I could think of reflash rom. But when you reflash don't wipe anything except for cache and dalvik. If all else fails, Start from scratch?

I keep reading people suggesting wiping multiple times before flashing a different ROM. Could I get a few people to sound off on the subject? I don't see why you would need to but I am in no way an expert and am hoping to learn something from these responses. Thanks!
Better safe than sorry. Only takes a few seconds.

I've heard both sides of the issue. Some state that you should do it just to make sure to get everything cleaned out in case something was missed the first time. I've also heard that you shouldn't do it, as it puts unnecessary formats on your memory and isn't really needed. I don't wipe multiple times and I don't run into issues.

I don't multiple wipe. But I do wipe multiple areas - system, cache and dalvik every time. Works fine for me.
I was wondering how it could possibly help but I don't know everything for sure

"Full" wipes help with FC and random reboot issues between ROMs. They're not always required, but they do help to ensure "clean" installs and minimal issues when switching ROMs.

multiple wipes was only necessary for older cwm recovery. *it had a bug and wouldnt wipe properly*
newer cwm and twrp2 you have no need to wipe more then once but if it makes you feel better then go ahead

It probably also comes from people having little idea to what is going on.

I found this to make a big difference. When flashing a new rom, make sure you wipe the system before flashing (never used to do this, now I'm finding my fresh installs less buggy). If doing a dirty flash, wipe cache, Dalvik and fix Permissions after.

OK, that's about what I was thinking. I always wipe system, cache, dalvic, and usually do a factory reset. Thanks for the help everyone

If you do a factory reset... That wipes the dalvik cache, as that resides on the data partition. That also wipes the cache partition as well.
And any dev worth flashing a Rom from should have it format /system in the script.
All i have done for ages is factory reset and flash.
Stuck In loop/boot into recovery after accepting update?
Just wipe data/factory reset and Wipe cache in recovery and you should be all right.
Just helping anyone out.

So what data and settings are missing on your phone (and what is still there) after doing this?

Is there any way to get out of this problem without losing everything?? lol
So, I need to wipe my phone, but am going to keep it rooted with the d3rp ROM still on it. I was wondering if I should factory reset or upgrade the ROM.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Well, if you want to keep the rom, then dont flash a new one.
What recovery do you have, some have a factory reset option
Just wipe data, cache and dalvik though
