I recently updated to the latest Sprint release in order to get the new radio and PRL. I re-rooted using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804296&highlight=root . Ever since then, I been unable to wipe cache and dalvik in the recovery menu. It says it's done wiping, but nothing happens. I also been having trouble restoring nandroids, it would be stuck at the white HTC screen and I have to pull the battery and try again.
Anyone having this problem?
Try reflashing your recovery and are you using Firerats mod by chance????

I've tried re-flashing with no change, and yes I'm using Firerats.
I think I'm having this problem as well... maybe. When I try to nandroid restore, I have to go through the Google account setup and when I skip it my launcher crashes...
I've had 1.7 for a long time, and I don't think I have any problems with it.... Oddly though, you say the recovery "says it's done wiping" and nothing happens, what the heck is supposed to happen? and what specifically makes you think it is not wiping? I now am curious if I have the same issue. My nandroids do seem to always work, whether creating one or restoring one...
When wiping cache, it will free up some internal memory. When wiping dalvik, it will take longer to boot, around 10 minutes. This no longer happens.

For the Dalvik, you can be absolutely sure by wiping Dalvik, connecting phone to usb, and in command prompt type
adb logcat
If you see a lot of lines saying DexOpt then that means Dalvik was indeed wiped.

is is then safe to assume if I logcat using the catlog app I have after a dalvik wipe it would show the same output? I can't connect to a comp at work

Sorry, I should have been more thorough. You should see a lot of DexOpt lines during the subsequent boot process, not during the actual Dalvik wipe in recovery. Just to be sure, is that what you meant?

I ran adb logcat after the phone booted. Anyway, I just switched back to Clockwork recovery which wipes properly, RA 1.62 also wipes properly. I don't know why 1.7 stopped working for me.

Well, 1.7 doesn't wipe properly for me either anymore.... weird - I wonder what broke it, because it seems it is not an isolated occurance... I dislike clockwork so I will try out 1.6.2. I wonder if this is why people in the GB thread who use 1.7 have been having issues getting the rom to work/bootloops... I bet it is. I will test 1.6.2 and see if I can flash GB without loops and post over there. And to pmgrands, yes there is that app which I've had for a while and it's nice when you don't want to go into recovery. BTW you can also wipe the dalvik cache using titanium backup, and you can wipe data/factory reset using the system settings menu, but it's way easier to do it all in one place(recovery), especially when you are about to flash something, but thanks for heads up for those who didn't already know about it.

Did you flash kernels after you installed the ROMs? Looks like a kernel issue to me.

i doubt it
did you wipe data,cache,davlik before you flashed
one more thing download rom manager and use the fix permissions script included in the app
I had this problem, But i wiped everything and flashed Android Revo 10 again and it worked again.

no. it will only wipe user data,app data,and apps you have installed.
but if this is your first time using 4.2 you should backup your sd card to your computer and after you flash the rom and boot up boot back to recovery and wipe your sd card then reboot and restore backup from computer or you will think it wiped everything but it just moves things around for multiuser support

Could be a bug or a one-time thing, it stopped when doing wipe data/factory reset, rebooted and it seems it did it anyways, but wanted to flash a rom xD. TWRP one is working perfectly tough, even with format system
Went to format cache and it seem cwm has just frozen, any ideas on how to reboot?
Volume down + power got it to reboot, but now stuck in bootloop
CWM corrupted the cache I think but fixed it via fastboop

Still problems with wiping cache. On the recoveries boot it says "Warning: No file_contexts". Stuck on formatting /cache.
It finishes formatting the cache but doesn't give an update to tell us it's complete.

ok, the warning can be forgotten. it is not a problem
Formatting cache takes some time. i have investigated it a bit. As far as i can see everything goes fine. It just takes some time and doesnt give u the complete sentence.

U can use both recovery's to install omars rom. The problem about the long cache wiping is different for each person. Some don't have any problem at all and some do have problems with it. Sometimes it takes a couple of minutes sometimes it wipes in 3 seconds. I dunno why it happens, but when android 4.4 is out with the new kernel i will definitely have another look into it.
Hi
I just tried flashing ARHD 20.2 coming from rooted stock 4.1.2 via CWM touch. The rom won't install, halfway through the phone just re-starts. Also whenever I try a factory wipe or data re-format from cwm my phone re-starts immediately. So I have recovery but I can't flash a new ROM.
Have I corrupted my data partition somehow? Is there a way around this? Maybe via a new recovery or kernel? My searches on xda haven't come up with much. Any ideas? Thanks.

HI, thanks for the advice although I don't understand what you want me to do. I guessed you might have meant try going back to stock which I just tried but that didn't work. I do not seem to be able to flash any ROM.
I can enter in and out of CWM recovery but that is it. My phone is formatted and wiped (excepting my suspect data partition???). So I am doing all flashing etc by adb and fastboot.
I tried a TRWP flash over the top of CWM but it only briefly flashes the twrp logo and then restarts the phone, so I have gone back to CWM which at least works.
In my CWM log I see this
I: Can't partition non-vfat: datamedia
I: Can't format unknown volume: /emmc
Any attempt to format data still just restarts the phone.

Hello everyone.
Lately I had this frustrating problem with formatting the cache through any recovery I ever had. ALWAYS!
How flashing a ROM goes:
- I'm powering off the phone and enter in recovery.
- I select Wipe Data/Cache (Or Wipe for a new ROM option in CWM)
- It starts by formatting data and next is cache, where I get stuck.
I don't have many options. I can either pull out the battery or wait a while. Oh, no worries, after 5 minutes of "formatting cache" it reboots, with the current ROM messed, obviously.
It's annoying because no one seems to have this problem and it happens every single time when I wipe.
Hope there is someone who will bother helping me out with this.
P.S. - I'm no expert, more like a noob, so don't ask me too-technical questions.
Thankiees!
switch to latest TWRP
