i957 I randomly myself into a bootloop ?! - Galaxy Tab 8.9 General

Hiiii first post here but anyways,
I have a SGH-I957 ATT LTE version and had filled the hard drive space to maximum... about like 70ish megabytes remaining (I know, stupid). It was running slow and it wouldn't delete full stacks of files for some reason so I restarted it and it got stuck in a bootloop. I've tried booting to recovery and rebooting again and I don't really want to factory wipe.
Any suggestions?? Please help lol

Factory reset = wipe of all data correct ? is there any way to save some stuff off of the partition through recovery somehow? I have CWM Recovery5.x + Rooted

I wipe/delete factory reset and wipe dalvik cache. Flash the zip, then restore data using cwm. It works for me.
I just did wipe cache & dalvik cache, installed the zip and it went OK.
I took a nandroid backup first, just in case, but it seems to be fine.

In cwm, choose advanced restore (in restore and backup), then choose restore data.

When I first installed the first cm9 not the one now the first one released for the note I had a similar problem and all I did is factory reset (don't do that) wipe cache wipe dalvik fix permissions and everything was OK
Just some additional information:
I went from Stock GB KKA -> Rooted via Zergrush exploit (got cf-root, SuperUser and CWM)-> Installed Mobile Odin -> Flashed Stock Official LPY Firmware with everroot etc. (Got SuperSU and CWM is gone)

i had the same problem.
try without sdcard.
if it works without sdcard format it in an external reader.
In this case factory reset works. If you have cwm You can do that vai CWM recovery but as we know this will possibly brock ur phn. But if you sont have just go in android recovery just do ur factory reset from there.. I hope this helped. Njoy....

thats what I would do, just remember NOT to use any backups or wipes ect while in ICS LPY. You should be ok Once back on GB I would keep away from LPY until this whole mess is sorted

if your back on GB you should be ok to go recovery and wipe , this will clear the crashes.

Factory reset
Hi all guys,
reading this post I saw that everyone said not to use a factory reset from CWM, because otherwise there's the risk to brick the phone.
Might I ask why?
I've used the factory reset many times in GB, and in ICS aswell (but on an HTC desire, not on the Galaxy note).
So.. why is it unsafe to factory reset trough CWM, if using ICS LPY?
I'm back on stock LPY and rooted again, everything works again!
Thank you guys, for your help!

back up your important data to your sd card just in case and remove it before doing anything. also some apps lets you back up user data. back that up to your sd card as well. will save you headache from setting up your apps again.

Hello i have a big problem..
There was a problem with a custom rom that i flashed and when i was connecting the phone to the pc it was taking too long to show me my internal memory etc. So i decided to do a clean flash from odin by flashing an original firmware for i9305.. The phone then stuck to the samsung logo! I reflash it but still the same. I even use re-partion and stills it reboots and stays at samsung logo screen i dont know what else to do?

lucky for me i flashed the recovery and i had atmy internal memory an old rom.. i flash it and the phone is working now thank god.. but i can understand why it did that.. i will not be able to flash an original firmware? and btw is still slow.. i connect it to pcamd takes time to open the internal memory and external..but at least it works
I have this problem when flashing through odin. Battery pull reset data clear cache always does the trick. I usually have to put back into download mode and then restart device from there. Worth trying.

[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?

you either put it there while you booted into your current rom. or you sideload it using adb commands or all in one toolkit from bootloader

Nexus 6 64Gb only showing 23Gb free space?

I individually flashed stock 5.0 Nexus 6 image to my N6 and rooted with CF autocrat and now I noticed it shows only 23GB in storage? What happened or how can I fix this issue? I just re downloaded everything so I hate that I may have to wipe again...
Common problem with the Nexus 5, too. Here's some info on fixing it...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47156078&postcount=2
They mentioned it in the toolkit thread. Factory reset should take care of it, may be an issue with using the 32 vs 64GB ROM.

Its a problem with the userdata you can erase user data from fastboot.

I fixed it by formatting user data and cache through fast boot. This was after individually flashing factory images.

Yes there is just use fastboot format cache, and then fast boot flash cache (the second one is redundant but it won't hurt) if that doesn't work you may have to format userdata

Ok, I wiped the cache using TWRP. Is this what you mean by "fastboot format cache"? How do I "fast boot flash cache" or "format userdata"? And this won't erase my data?

Yes the format data will wipe your user data. You use fastboot while plugged into your PC just like normal. There may be another way to fix this I haven't tried yet.
This happened to me I had to lock the phone back put it in Stock recovery and do a factory reset. It was a pain in the ass I had to call Google support and they said it has happened to a couple of people.

It is a good tutorial on how to flash stock ROM. That was how I got my space back. Erasing user data did not work for me.
has anyone figured out a straight forward fix to this?
my friend just flashed my nexus 6 64gb from 5.0.1 to 5.1 Benzo custom ROM. Now its having issues, for available memory its only saying theres 23gb. It looks like theres a lot of confusion over whats going on and how to fix it.
How can i fix my phone??? Please help
This happened to me as well. I fixed it by performing a factory reset from inside the android settings. (Not recovery, not fastboot)
Settings>Backup & reset>Factory data reset
This should do it.
I can confirm as well a factory reset did it for me as well. Went from 23gb to 54gb
