Yep, do that & everything will be good.
And when wiping for a new ROM I wipe SD ext correct?

How did you partitioned? On pc?!
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda app-developers app
its obvious that partitioning SD will format the SD card.
I don't remember the name but there's some apps for file recovery in android.
search for that apps in Google and play store. it worked for me very good.

As far as I know tthat only works if you delete a few files, not if you formatted the whole sd card, than its really gone

Such programs worked for me when accidentally formatted my HDD. I recovered about 2/3 of data. Why wouldn't it work on Android?
Use minitool partition wizard

I know this will sound stupid, but I'm kinda new to this and I accidentaly formatted everything on my phone. Basically the only thing I can do now is boot into recovery mode. How cani fix this? Can I just flash a rom from my external sdcard?
Yes you can

So you didn't format everything if your sd card still good. Also in yourcase you should of probably have had a nandroids backup on the sd card.

If you formatted everything including the SD card that had your nandroid like I did a while ago, you can follow this guide:

Put a rom on your sd card from your PC... put sd card back in your phone. Boot into recovery and flash.

How much internal memory should I have left a after flashing a room.
I'm on liquidsmooth 2.3 official and I have like 1 gb of internal mem left. I was flashing 4.1.1 roms earlier to see if I wanted to change roms and I noticed that I also had only about 1-2 gb of internal mem left.
Should I be having more? I need 2gb for a game that I just bought and I can't do that if I only have 1 gb left over
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Depends how many files you have on your internal memory. You probably have too many, I have 8.92gb available

Factory reset will only delete apps in internal memory and some settings, no other things.. If you use format data it will delete everything in your internal memory but I would be very careful with that because you would obviously lose any files, backups, pictures, or any other things you have in there.. Just browse your internal memory with a file explore and clean anything you don't want or need anymore, or simply back everything up and completely wipe it

Formating doesn't wipe my sd card does it? Think I read that in twrp it wipes sd card. Or is this false?

Formatting data? No it shouldn't, but just take it out to have a piece of mind lol.. It'll only wipe the internal sd

Hi!
I have tried googling answers, but I can't seem to find a clear one. My question is, how can I format the internal SD card? I remember from my past android phones (skyrocket, infuse, HTC vivid) I was able to format the internal through settings. I can't seem to do that now...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In cwm, go to mounts and storage, there should be an option that says format external sd.
While the phone is on, go into system settings and the syorage, scroll down it ahould let u format the sd card from there aswell.
