I've had trouble wiping data and cache from CWM something has always gone wrong bootloops or whatever and have to flash to stock via odin. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I normally boot to recovery wipe data then cache and flash never seems to work.

I don't know, want exactly append, but i tried to access to market, it froze, reboot and since then, is in a boot loop. I can get in cwm, so i tried to wipe cache (worked), wipe delvik cache (froze & reboot), wipe data / factory reset (froze). I also tried to reflash the room (worked), and the gapps (froze & reboot). Any idea what to do?
Thanks
Hi, I installed CWM custom recovery, and took several backups. I wanted to check that the backups worked so I tried to restore them. This just made my phone not boot (it sticks at the second screen which says "Samsung GT-i5500". (I can recover from this by re-flashing the stock ROM, but this still leaves me with some useless backups.)
Is there some way I can try to debug to see where it is going wrong? I have tried to use ADB logcat (from the android SDK) but it doesnt report anything ("still waiting for device").
I dont get any errors reported during the backup or the restore.
What I used...
Odin 4.28
Custom recovery: ClockworkMod-Galaxy5-v0.5.tar (When it runs it reports that it is version v4.0.1.5)
Closed down Keis.
Leave Odin controls at defaults and just add the OPS file and the above file for 'one package'
When doing restore I have run, from the recovery menu: clear cache, data reset, clear dalvik cache.
and then select the restore option
I have a samsung galaxy 5500
when restoring stock only restore data then wipe dalvik and cache.
flash stock rom then advanced restore data then wipe dalvik cache and cache.

Thanks ashley117, but I didnt understand this. It was a bit too brief for me to follow (I'm just new to android).
"when restoring stock only restore data"
Not sure how to do this - it only comes as a single package.
Or did you mean when restoring my backup?
I was wondering how much this would restore. Will it do everything that would have happened if restore was working - will it preserve unlocked phone and rooted phone etc?
Hi,
Last night my I9300 decided to randomly reboot and get stuck in a bootloop. This morning I took the time to wipe my cache, data, etc. through CWM but it still would not boot. I did a wipe data/factory reset, wiped cache again and installed the latest AOKP nightly, but it still will not boot.
I can start the bootloader through CWM and I can also get into download mode, but it just won't boot Android.
ADB does list my device while in the bootloop, but I get a "device unauthorized" message.
I've had bootloops before and wiping cache/data/factory reset/installing a new rom always worked, but in this case I am clueless.
What can I do? Is there maybe a way to connect logcat without unauthorizing, or authorizing from CWM, or something?
Do you have the newest CWM?? Or try any other custom recovery
As above, use the latest recovery then manually format system, data, cache preload and data/media/0

How can I do this if I cannot authorize a ADB connection?
If yours recovery works flash the newest version
If not flash a stock ROM via Odin
dalvik cache

On Cwm click advance and try wiping dalvik cache if that doesn't work install your stock rom
So I'm trying to clean flash a ROM and I want to wipe Cache, Dalvik, System and Data, but TWRP reboots every time and doesn't finish the wipe. And nothing gets wiped.
I tried only a cache + dalvik, but nada. Instant reboot to my home screen.
Tried TWRP 3.0.2.1 and 3.1.0.0 both, same issue.
Ideas?
Solved it. Went back to the May update via fastboot & rerooted + TWRP (latest). Done and dusted.
Mods may close this thread.
Same problem here. Any solution aside from flashing factory image?
Before I flashed twrp,l tried doinga hard reset through stock recovery. I wiped data and cache but after rebooting my personal data was left untouched. I flashed twrp and got rooted. I tried to flash custom ROM. After deleting cache,dalvik, system, I tried to wipe data it says fail. I tried to go ahead to install the custom ROM,it failed too. Please help.
