[Q] partitions menu help

I hav an htc hero and I'm wondering how to clear my gallerys cache using the partitions menu in clockworkmod recovery. Its a lot to type from my phone so here's the info from my android forums post.
androidforums.com/sprint-hero-all-things-root/266717-how-do-i-clear-my-gallery-its-showing-wrong-pictures.html
I'm guessing it can be done there like when I wanted to clear my google apps I was told to use format /system and it wordked. But I don't know what these things actually do so I don't want to use the wrong one and lost other things from my phone

I'm not quite sure what cache your referring to, but in your menu settings " within your rom" it should be a option for managing your apps. Once you find that selection you can find the gallery application and clear the cache. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Iv tried this already. And it didn't work. I even switched roms. These are from when I had cyanogenmod. I reflashed everything and am now using aosp. And it still does it. But only in gallery. quickpic doesn't but that app isn't very good. That's y I'm trying to find what the things in the partitions menu do. Because gapps don't get deleted between roms, u have to go to partitions menu then format /system. So there must b a place outside the rom where old caches are stored

I think you just clear the Dev cache..
I Don't use clockwork but partitioning usually erases everything.

I just tried clearing the gallery data and clearing the cache threw the recovery menu. But yet still when I click a photo I see the correct one for a split seccond and then it turns into an old deleted photo

Try looking on your sd card in your camera folder there might be img.'s left on there. If so delete the old images and reboot. You would look in the folder titled DCIM then look under camera.

I tryed taking all the photos off into my computer and deleting the folders and everything... unfortuately it didn't work. Thank you guys for these sugestions. I appreciate it because id like to figure this out

Well I found a fix just in case anyone else has this problem. I did the format system cache boot and data in the partitions menu. It didn't even help. Im not sure where the pics are being stored but my problem was the stock gallery. I went to it in titanium backup. And used that to find the app in the market. I installed the 3d gallery over stock. Which took out stock And made the 3d gallery app mess up and loop the startup of my phone. It gave a blank icon and said com.gallery and then I used titanium backup to uninstall that because the market wouldnt let me. And then reinstall the 3d gallery from market. And the stock is gone along with the problem! App works fine now!

This in my Opinion this is the Easiest Way, All I do is just Open my File Manager and go to
Sdcard/DCIM/.thumbnails/
Then I Select All, and Delete Everything in that File!
From what I Noticed, Whenever I Reboot the Phone, The Cache and a Few Other Files Recreate Themselves Independently!
Good Luck!!

Playstore Problem.

I got a problem when i click download, it just the bar downloading, but it didn't show the process of downloading.
Even a few kb/s stuff also won't start.
Tried wipe cache etc, won't work too. Any solution?

Maybe us your Internet connection. Did you try using another access point?

Two options:
1. Go to settings applications. Find play store and Google services framework. Delete data. Go to recovery mode. Wipe Cache x3 and Dalvik Cache x3. Restart and try after 10 mins
2. If on Semaphore Kernel or similar. Use Semaphore Manager and untick 50MB virtual cache.

Is the ambient display not working properly for anyone else?

At night, the phone's screen will turn on when it receives a notification, then never turn off. It also doesn't always show the black and white "ambient display" notification screen all of the time. Texts and emails will still show the regular one that I'm used to with other phones. Is there any way to make it work properly?

Try to wipe cache only, in recovery if necessary. Worked for some.

How do I do that?

Does anyone know how to wipe the cache like the guy above suggested?

Are those instructions only for the OP3? I'm using an OP3T and they don't work for me. I don't see any option to wipe cache partition.
EDIT: I went into recovery mode and wiped the cache. I hope this works.

Go to settings then apps then find your app. Click storage and you will see the option to wipe cache.

I don't know which app could be causing this, so I just went into recovery mode and wiped the phone's entire cache that way. I'm hoping this solves it because I REALLY don't want to have to do a factory reset. I had to manually download all of my apps when I switched phones.

You can clear the systems app from apps in settings but I don't know if that will fix it. Clearing the phone from recovery shouldn't delete your apps but will Probably clear your logins and passwords for different apps

Doing a factory reset will delete everything, including apps. That's what I'm trying to avoid. Like I said, I don't know which app is the culprit here.

Youtube and FB Messenger not working or crashing

If I recall correctly, everything started after an update for Facebook Messenger. First only chat heads worked and if I opened the app itself it would just crash. In the beginning I could open the app after reinstalling it and at least login to my account so chat head would work, and now I can't even open the app as it just crashes a few seconds after I open it.
Youtube at first didn't want to play videos - I could open the app but if I tried to open a video it would just crash. Now I can't even open the app, when I press on the icon nothing happens.
I tried wiping data and cache for the apps in the settings, I tried reinstalling the apps and I tried wiping Dalvik and cache in recovery - nothing helped.
I am running 7.1.1. and OOS 4.1.3. rooted with Magisk.
Any help would be appreciated.

My problem was with the substratum skin. Had to remove it completely for everything to work.

Google Photos problem after reverting back to Oreo 8.1 from Android P

Yesterday I installed Android P, but did not feel I could rely on it for daily use so reverted back to Android Ore 8.1. However, after reverting, the Google Photos app is misbehaving in following ways:
1. Does not delete photos. If you delete them from File Manager, they still appear in photos.
2. With camera when you take photos and want to review the photo, the photo appears with noise and then app crashes (black screen and nothing happens).
3. At some points it asks me to give acccess to SD card, but I have no SD card inserted.
Anyone has a clue how to get over it? I installed a 3rd party gallery, which works fine but cannot integrate with camera i.e you cannot jump to that app after taking photos to review them. It still would try to go to Google Photos. I have tried clearing cache, data, disabling, rebooting, re installing update but nothing is working. Any inputs would be appreciated.
I also see one strange thing. Out of box, I had google photos which worked smooth and it had words "move to trash". But now it shows "Move to Bin" :/

Did you wipe data before switching back?
Also it is move to bin for me for some time now
maybe clear cache?

I did. Everything else seems to work fine.
UPDATE: I had to wipe data/factory reset again from recovery, and this has fixed it for now. Also now I again get "Move to Trash"

No I dont use SD Card. For me the factory reset and wiping cache worked fine. It was quite annoying and I had no other choice then to do that.
Regarding downgrading, I am not sure how to do. Maybe on internet there are some tutorials
