that's the option on system recovery that says:
"[Alt+W] wipe data/factory reset"
right?

Clarification on wipe options?

I know what the battery stats option does, but I don't have a clue about wiping data/factory reset, cache, Dalvik-cache, SD:ext and rotate settings.
Can someone clarify what these wipe options do?
Thanks in advance for any help.

[Q] How do I wipe everything but recovery?

I messed up my WiFi somehow and a factory reset doesn't fix it.
Is there anyway to wipe absolutely everything but my recovery and a ROM/Gapps to flash?

[Q] Installing Balt Rom v.5 on S5570

Hi, guys. Just fixed my mom's Mini and finished rooting the phone.
Since I'm just a n00b yet, I can't directly reply to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074556. Tried doing the said steps but on my recovery mode, I can't seem to find these :
> Format /system
> Wipe dalvik cache
I think it's necessary because just wiping the cache and resetting, shows the error “E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip Installation aborted”.
Am I supposed to download all version of Balt and install it accordingly? The only thing I downloaded is the cm-10.1.Balt_rom_v5_final.zip.
Thanks.

This one?

DON'T DO IT ! DON'T INSTALL FROM ROM MANAGER !!
The instruction is right, you're misunderstanding. CWM IS Recovery.

To sum up, you have to install the apk, flash the zip and then wipe dalvik and cache.
