I am using bekits v2.5.1.1 0.8 clockworkmod and when it try and do a factory reset...I can wipe the data...however when it gets to wiping cache....it just hangs and doesnt move....I have tried going into partion...set it to 2048/0 wiped everything......still cant get past wiping cache....any suggestions?
You could try to nvflash partition #12 (it's the cache partition) by edititing the nvflash format package but I sugest you restrain from formating the whole thing...
Moved to Q&A.
error i am getting:
backing up cache and formatting cache hangs indefinitely
I am having the same problem. I can't backup either since it hangs on cache. Were you able to fix this?
I am thinking of using NVFlash to restore to stock and then start over, but I was hoping to avoid this. I haven't used NVFlash yet and am concerned that I could make things worse. My G Tab is running Vegan Gingerbread edition and seems to work fine, so this is only a problem if I want to change things.
I started with TNT Lite, switched to Vegan (earlier version), and then back to TNT Lite before I installed Vegan Gingerbread. The backup worked originally, but not with the lat install of TNT Lite. Could I ave corrupted something when switching ROMs? If so, why does my G-tab still work? Maybe it is ClockwordMod that is not working. Is there another app I should try to fix the cache partition with?
Does anyone know if a full restore to stock with NVFlash will fix this?
I've tried to flash my rom to CM7 but something went wrong with the procedure because I am stuck on the android boot screen (Android logo lightning, it gets stuck for a while and then the letters continue flashing, cycling).
I followed the normal procedure: root, installed custom recovery, I made a backup with nandroid (normal one, which I copied to my computer), wiped data+cache (both caches) and I tried to flash from SD. Update went as normal but I got stuck in this boot screen.
After trying 2 or 3 times this same procedure and being unable to move on, I tried to recover my backup using nandroid: it said it was unable to recover and to do it from adb; adb says that it's unable to mount my sdcard.
From what I've read, I would need to repartition my card.. I chose that option in the recovery; still unable to recover my backup.
I figured that it would not be too bad if I lost my data, so after giving up on CM7 I gave up on recovering my data as well.. the problem is that even after wiping data and cache I'm still stuck in this same boot screen.
Any idea?
I can access recovery and adb so this has to have a solution..
I managed to boot after formatting /system.
i tried to install villianrom and its stuck on a villainrom load screen =[
Wipe and then flash again.
ok i did that, it worked but after i went to CWM and restored my files its stuck at the boot screen again?? do i just keep trying until it works or am i doing it wrong??
Wipe cache and dalvik cache, and try again, you may not be able to restore stuff with cwm, that's what titanium is for.
Nandroid in cmw is more for full system restore.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
so how do i restore from titanium if its not on my phone any more after rebooting =s...
ok nvm i got the titanium backup but it cant find my files to restore
edit: nvm im an idiot -_-
Why are you using clockwork to do a restore? ... - - - ...
Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, P6200.
ROM: CM9.
Started with the device rebooting every time I tried to do nandroid backup when it got to backing up /data. I attempted to factory reset but then CWM (6.0.1.0) just hanged at formatting /data.
Then I attempted to do factory reset from the ROM (CM9). The device got stuck in a bootloop of trying to format /data and just hanging there. The device kept turning itself back on when turned off to go into this ridiculous loop.
Is my on-board sdcard fried or something? Anything I can do?
UPDATE: Fixed it, I hope. . . Ran f2sck from recovery on mmcblk0p10, needed three rounds before all the errors were gone. Then could successfully do factory reset and reinstall ROM. Restoring from backups now, hopefully nothing borks again,
try to get back to the stock rom via odin it will overwrite the data partition and of course the recovery image so ure back to 0 than and are able to continue what u wanted to do
Hi.
So, I accidentally did a factory reset from twrp (dammit, why isn't there a confirmation request?) and my latest backup is from june.
I tried to mount the data partition from twrp but I can't see anything from the pc.
What can I do to recover my latest data?
Thanks.
