[Q] Full wipe - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! How I make a full wipe on my desire hd?
Whit this step I do this?
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
advanced
wipe dalvik cache
wipe battery stats
install rom

You need Full Wipe 1.3 available from the developer section.
Drop the zip file to your sd card, reboot to recovery and run the zip from there.

Yeah I use it but when I flash the rom and reboot I have the same "desktop", sms, program used before full wipe... why?

Check in your Setting, about phone, software infromation.
The kernel and software number should be different.

Yeah is different, I've a revolution HD 3.3 installed

[Q] Rom Manager - Pre Rom Installation? Dalvik?

In Rom manager when you go to install a .zip/rom from the sd card it offers you "Pre Rom Installation" options.
1. Backup Current Rom
2. Wipe Data and Cache?
My question is does this also wipe the dalvik cache? OR do I need to go into Clockwork and manually wipe the dalvik cache prior to a new rom installation.
I'd prefer someone who knows the answer to this question vs. speculation.
thank you so much!
I know this is somewhat speculative but I am 99% sure on this. I believe that it does wipe the dalvik-cache. The dalvik-cache is in the data partition, so if you wipe data you've wiped dalvik-cache. You can always clear the dalvik manually in recovery if you're unsure.
edit: Did a quick search, I am 100% sure of this now.

[Q] CWM Wipe

I'm wondering if these are the correct procedure..
1. Wipe data / factory reset
2. Wipe cache
3. Advanced > wipe dalvik cache
4. Format /System
Anyone ?
really all you need to do is wipe data and cache (factory reset)
i prefer to format system just in case the rom does not include the script to format system, but most rom installs have a script that formats system

Yes it is...
This is ofcourse if you are installing complete ROM. However, if you are just installing an update I don't think your mobile will ever boot.
Otherwise, as suggested by some other members, all you need is just 1,2 and 3.

I've been following these steps since I had my Incredible years and still use of my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7. Try out CWM for a little, if you don't like try TWRP, I just switched over to it.

[Q] Rom updating w/o losing data?

Updating aokp for example, the aokp updater told me about the update but is it the same process as installing for the first time? Will I lose my apps and everything or does it only wipe cache? What step in roms delete everything, format data or factory reset or both?
Cheers.
No wipe needed if updating.I recommend wiping cache and dalvik-cache for good measure tho. And you have to reinstall gapps after the rom as well.
When a wipe is needed you want to select factory reset. Never select wipe/format data as it'll wipe the internal storage too.
Then what about...
If you are already on AOKP and doing an update:
1. Make a nandroid (backup in CWM)
2. Format /system
3. Wipe cache
4. Wipe dalvik
5. Install new ROM zip
6. Install gapps
If you end up with issue or coming from another ROM, do this:
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Format /system
3. Wipe cache
4. Wipe dalvik
5. Install new ROM zip
6. Install gapps
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Isn't a Format/system wiping the apps? Or does that not affect the apps? By format on my recovery it says formatting the sd card deletes everything (on TWRP).
Cheers.
