Hey all
Anyone tried wiping cache in Stock recovery?
When I did , the mobile rebooted without the confirmation of cache being wiped.
Wipe data & factory reset is working fine but not wipe cache.
I am not rooted and I am on latest version.
Will anyone try and confirm if thats the case with all or is it just me?
Thanks

Same here. It says it is wiping the cache then I get Mr. Android lying on his back with front door open and a red X on it. Then it restarts. Would love to know how to do this.

This is normal for the i9152. No issues associated with this.

I do not have that android displayed after cache wipe. The phone just restarts after cache wipe. And may I add my device is i9152 which is different from your phone. Anyway I already flashed twrp and have rooted so no wipe issue.
Cheers!.
So is there a way to know that cache has been wiped?

It's not just the stock recovery, guys. I'm experiencing the exact same thing on the latest TWRP recovery on my L600.
I have always used a app called CacheMate (free in the play store). Clears the cache without having to use recovery and tells you how many mb's have been cleared. You must be rooted to use this app.

Hey guys, quick question. I am currently running CM7 on my V but it is to unstable for me, too many FC's and reboots. I would like to flash That Ain't Sense ROM, found here:
http://androidforums.com/optimus-v-all-things-root/312747-rom-theme-wait-aint-sense-4-6-2011-a.html
Under the directions, it says:
how to flash:
put gapps and rom on sdcard
wipe the hell out of your phone
flash both and reboot
enjoy

When it says, wipe the hell out of the phone, what specifically do I have to wipe, and at what time during the process? Since I am moving to an entirely new ROM, what do I need to wipe?
P.S. I am running thunderc recovery.
Data, cache, system, dalvik cache and something else i can't remember. If am i not wrong, ROMManager doesn't work on the V, so you can't switch back and forth freely, unless there is another method.

You wanna wipe before flashing a new ROM. I wipe data/cache, then Dalvik cache then flash ROM, then gapps file

Is that all I have to wipe? I made a nandroid backup but I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

This should be in Q&A
That's all I wipe. Wiping everything won't hurt though. Just don't do a factory reset through the settings with the phone booted up. Do it through the recovery.

Hello everyone, i have sold my x10 to my friend few days ago. He has responsed that he cannnot erase my google account, he just could add a new one what he did. We decided to destroy the old one with factory reset but when we booted phone home button, screenlock and incoming calls didn't work. I was searching for threads like these one and I've found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301276 - it is propably the same but i don't want to do something without being sure by you, because i weren't running any other ROM than stock. My (his) x10 is running latest official Gingerbread 2.3.3 (firmware 3.0.1.G. 0.75, kernel 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537). Please try to help if you can.
I assume the rom is rooted with xrecovery? If so I would re-flash the wolf rom but remember wipe factory reset then wipe cache and then advanced wipe dalvic cache before reflashing

And also Advanced\Wipe Dalvik Cache + Wipe Battery Stats.
Then -> Install custom zip and you choose the ROM archive from the sdcard.
Thank you guys for advance in this issue, finally i flash cyanogenmod into it and phone was running perfectly. This community is perfect . Thread can be lock now.
Hi everyone !
As a new Android user, I'm in a need of help... My GS3 is running Omega 8.1 (not sure of the version...) and I've tried to install the battery fix thingie but now I an't start the device anymore.. It's stuck on a screen and I can't do anything about it. Tried CWM recovery mode to restore a back up I've done before but it says it can't mount /sdcard or something like that...
Is my phone bricked ? Is there a way to rollback what I've done and save my datas ?
Thanks for your help.
Here's a screen of what I have when I start the phone :
Boot into cwm, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, then advanced, wipe dalvik, then try restoring

Thank you very much, it worked !!
hey guys i wanted to know if i had to wipe everything when there is an update for a rom? or just wipe cache and dalvik?
thanks
It's a case-by-case thing. Sometimes you only need to wipe caches, but others you'll need to do a full wipe. Usually a ROM developer will note what you have to wipe when they post the update, so make sure to check.
You could always just do a nandroid and then try flashing after a cache wipe. If that doesn't work, you can either restore or do a full wipe and reflash the update.

I always factory reset. Wipe cache, then dalvik. Twice in that order. But you can get away with just wiping cache and dalvik. As most will tell you

Note that the MeanROM installation will wipe cache and dalvik cache for you, so no manual wiping is necessary actually.

When I upgraded Stock Rom with Goodies i didn't need to wipe the cache's, smooth upgrade.
Hi,
I'm on stock rom. But because of flashing a wrong zip (with aosp camera) my phone got into a bootloop. The first time it boots it go's to homescreen right before I have to press my pin. The second boot it doesn't go further than samsung logo. I tried reflashing stock ROM without wipe. Still got the bootloop after that. Is there a way to solve this problem? If not, is there a way to backup my sms and whatsapp in recovery?
Thanks in advance!

Only way is to pull battery and enter android recovery to wipe data.
Hope this helps!
