Hi!
Is the internal memory (11 Gb partition) cleared when you do data/factory reset?
Yes!
10char
An if I flash a stock firmaware with odin, than what will happen with the internal partition?

In CW recovery, when I do wipes i goto Mount and Storage then format / data, cache, system.
What happens if i select format / sdcard? will that erase my internal sd card?
Formatting an SD card will wipe it totally clean, so yes.
I've never used it but I suspect it's the same as formatting sd card from settings / storage. You would lose all your photos, media files and everything else on your internal SD card.

Plus phone will no longer boot .
Useful for a fresh install on a clean phone via download mode and Odin and stock rom .

i wanted to completely reset my SGS2, and formatted all partitions in siyah-recovery (dorimanx kernel): cache, data, system, internal storage (emmc). i just left external storage (my 32GB sd card ) untouched.
so normally, on the phone there shouldn't be any data any more, right?
but, then i flashed 4.1.2 and was wondering afterwards why all the data on the internal storage were still here (pics, whatsapp, and so on)
can anyone tell me why formatting "emmc" didn't work in recovery? (everything seemed fine when doing it: "formatting 'emmc' successfully"

Run NUKE script.It will wipe everything.Search here on XDA.
Will the CWM backups disappear after a full wipe? Please answer.
Thank you!
If on your external sd card then no, they won't. Internal sd will be wiped, depending on how you're doing the wipe.
Mine didn't but they were on the external sd card everything on the internal was gone but external stayed intact.

It depends on what you call full wipe. On my recovery and generally speaking it is /cache dalvick cache, and /data except the internal sdcard folder. Sometimes it adds system and preload wipe. So your internal card personal data are untouched. With those recoveries the option to wipe internal card completely is explicitly labeled and you can't make a mistake.
If I flash a rom suppose ultima rom( or any other rom) does my internal sd card get formatted?
No. Unless you use a script or format SD cards. Data is not your SD data.
Means???
To install a rom you format
Data
System
Cache
And dalvik cache
Then flash rom/gapps
This won't delete your SD cards.
If you format SD card it will format it. Formats are found in mounts and storage in custom recovery.
Is it safe to wipe the "Internal Storage" partition as well when flashing a custom ROM?
even when I have the files to be flashed on an external SD card? does wiping internal storage also wipe all files on the external SD card???
please I need your assistance!!!!!!!
