Perform a full wipe (Go to Clockworkmod Recovery, here, select "Data Wipe / Factory Reset". Then, go to "Mounts and Storage", select "Format /system, Format /cache and Format /data")and install another ROM. (If you had read the last few pages of the topic, you would have known it was unstable)

CWM 5.0.2.7 ignoring ext partition?
Hi everybody. I have installed CWM v5.0.2.7 on my SONIC U8650 smartphone. I'm having a slight problem with this recovery (same occurred with previous version 4.0.1.4). It's not saving the ext partition that I have on the sd card. When I perform a backup through CWM, it skips the saving of sdext as this partition is not being found. Also, with previous CWM version 4.0.1.4, there was an option to manually mount the partition (just in case it is not found at the time of backup) in the "Mounts and storage" option. This option is no longer present in CWM 5.0.2.7 so I can't manually mount the partition (whether this would let CWM recognize the partition and make a proper backup of it). In the end I'm not able to have sdext fully backed up (I resorted at doing a manual backup on my notebook with LINUX with partimage) along with all the other partitions such as /system, /data, /cache etc etc. I therefore wonder if this is a bug and if there's a way to get around this.
I have another smartphone with CWM v5.0.2.3 installed and on this one the backup of the sd-ext partition does work (and it is ext4, not ext3). I wonder if on this 5.0.2.7 version for SONIC, ext3 partitions would be recognized or not.
P.S.: The CWM 5.0.2.7 I installed was taken from here. And this is the installation guide. Is this the same CWM as the one posted here?
EDIT: I have flashed even this version posted here and still the same problem.... it desn't backup my sd-ext partition. It does backup boot_image, recovery_image, system, data, android_secure, cache but not sd-ext (no sd-ext found).

Hi dude:
If you wanna sd-ext on your sd card you must follow (exactly) this easy steps.
1- Full format in FAT32 your SD card with Mini Partition 7 (windows) or gparted (linux); per example: Primary FAT32
2- put your sd card into your phone and get into recovery menu.
---go to "mounts and storage" and format this parts:
---/boot
---/cache
---/data
---/sdcard
---/system
3- Go to the beggining of recovery menu and select:
..."wipe data/factory reset"...(say YES)
..."wipe cache partition"...(say YES)
Go to ...advanced ..."wipe Dalvik Cache"...(say YES)
...go back...
5- Go to...advanced...partition SD card (say 512Mb to ext and64Mb to swap)
...go back...
...go to...mounts & storage... mount USB storage...
... conect the phone via USB and pass your favourite ROM to the cellular
6- select "unmount"
7- Go to "Go Back"
8- Select "install zip from sdcard"... "chose zip from sdcard" and select your ROM
10- Say YES and wait untill your ROm is installed
Congratz, now you have your U8650 with custom ROM and ext partition with swap
P.S. I know the steps are some tedious think but, it works at 110% man

Am stuck here with an At&t fusion which a friend purchased a not long ago. He set it up with a lock pattern but unfortunately his colleague took it up and tried more than 5times. Now the phone is asking for the gmail account used to set it up. Which he did not change when he got it. I would like you to give a step by step guide to get the cwm on it in other to flash it with custom rom. The menu can't be accessed so I thought your method would be the best.

Sorry for the late reply and many thanks for the tip. I have been using the SONIC so far without the need to restore the system which works fine, so it was not urgent and therefore I kept it as it was, never tried again to overcome the problem. Only a question: does this procedure (different from the one I used) let the system correctly generate the backup of /sdext partition in CWM? Because I don't see why it would work with this procedure and not with my current sdext partition, which I created using gparted on a linux notebook.
Easy as pie, thank you.

I've been having similar problems with creating/saving the partitions. I used a procedure like yours and managed to get the partitions created.
But your write hits it on the head......thanks.

It's a really simple guide but download link is broken, please help
useless download link
download link doesn't work anymore
PLZ change it.
Sorry for asking so easy question but I am really not sure and I do NOT want to screw the things up:
So I have done everything up until :wipe all , factory reset , format !!(installing Flexreaper)
Unfortunately I do not see wipe all option and format options under Mounts & Storage are 6.
Could you please tell me 1,2,3 what EXACTLY to do in order to wipe my device the right way right before I flash the .zip FR ROM. I want to point out that I do NOT have an Micro SDHC card. I could buy one tomorrow if necessary or just temporary take the one from my SGS i9000.
P.S. I have just wipe/factory reset my a100 and I am literally waiting in the CWM -based Recovery v5.5.0.4 for you to tell me what to do.
Please help
When they say wipe all it usually means "wipe data/factory reset" and "format /system". I believe that the FR install script already format /system for you and wipe cache partition.
For Flexreaper, you should be okay to flash after "wipe data factory reset" since the script takes care of formatting /system. You can choose "format /system" from mount and storage if you want to make sure its wiped.
After you flash its usually a good idea to "wipe Dalvik cache" and "fix permission" under the advanced menu to get rid of any old ghosts from the previous rom.
THANK YOU!!!
what about the sd card. I have copied the .zip file in my 8gb a100 but after all those wipes is it lost?
I could add the sd card from my SGS just for the FlexReaper but I am not sure if it will recognize it now when I am already in CWM?
Thank you for your HELP!!!
GREAT

It booted and now I am signing in to GooGle ACC

Unfortunately as before I have a problem with the GPS. It just does not see even 1 satellite?! I do not know how to be sure if the device is defect.
Could somebody help?
I have just left it outside. I am going to wait 20min...if nothing it has to be broken/defect somehow
I was one of the ones with problems with trying to restore nandroids and wiping data. I got stuck going from vicious JB v1 to V2 then back to v1. Somehow, after attempting to restore numerous nandroids of ICS and my nandroid of V1 I somehow got it to boot.
Now, I've noticed that whenever I boot into recovery if I go to "mounts and storage" I see cache is mounted. I can unmount it and make a nandroid. Then if I go back to "mounts and storage" I see data is mounted and wont unmount so when trying to restore a nandroid it hangs at the data part.
He is what I do that has been working for me.
Once in recovery, I go to mounts and storage and unmount cache. Make a nandroid. Go back to mounts and storage and see data is mounted and won't unmount. I then go to "advanced" and select reboot recovery. Once it reboots into recovery I go back to mounts and storage and see that data is unmounted. I then can restore a nandroid. I've done this successfully going from vicious v3 to BAMF v2 then back to vicous v3.
I just wanted to share this and hope it helps someone.
Thanks
Ddaaaaammmnnnn......I really wish I would have seen this earlier. Blew my phone up just to get it working again. Thanks for the info. I will know what to do next time.

Sorry, left out a step. After returning to recovery and finding data unmounted, I can then wipe data, system, and cache. I believe data is again mounted so go to advanced and reboot recovery again, go to mounts and storage and make sure everything is unmounted then restore your nandroid or install a new ROM.
I'm using CWM touch by the way.

If you have adb access when in recovery, see if you can run the following and have /data unmount
Code:
umount -l /data
You'll need to be root, and if you're already in the mounts and storage screen, you'll need to go back one, and then select mounts and storage again for it to refresh. Could be something is still being accessed when it attempts to unmount /data causing the issues.

I've finally got Vicious v3 set up to the way I like. I'll try that next time. Maybe somebody else will see this post and try it if they are stuck.
It's strange, I've flashed many ROMs in CWM touch with ICS with no issues. I saw one post where someone believed it had to do with a new "storage" folder that is created in JB. If you use a file explorer you'll see a "storage" folder and inside it it is linked to the sdcard.
Should cache be mounted when I first boot into recovery? I've never noticed that before but I haven't had a need to check until now.
Thanks for your response.

Based on your post and some testing, I made a guide for people... kind of a step by step thing. Let me know if this captures the jist of your experience. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749322
Thanks I was totally baffled yesterday when I did a full wipe and reflashed the rom only to find that my phone booted normally and all my apps and data were there. Whats the deal with getting stuck on the google screen though? Does it just take a long time? I needed my phone for work last night and couldnt wait, which is why I tried flashing a nandroid...
Step by Step
How to restore a Nandroid or flash new ROM with CWM Touch
In CWM Touch Recovery
1. Go to mounts and storage and unmount cache.
2. Make a nandroid. (Going back to mounts and storage, you will see data is mounted and will not unmount.)
3. Go to "advanced" and select reboot recovery.
4. Once phone reboots into recovery, go back to mounts and storage and see that data is unmounted. You may now wipe data, system, and cache.
5. You may now restore a nandroid or flash a new rom.
If this helped you, hit thanks. Also, thank hobby31.
Confirmed working going from vicious v1, back to a 4.04 nandroid.

I have been having a similar issue
I have tried several of the JB roms, and haven't found one that will let me reboot the phone. Every one get to the google screen and never past, and I ended up having to flash the stock rom before I can get anywhere. Anyone else having this issue or found a fix?

If it is what was happening to me and a few others it has something to do with the data not unmounting in CWM. I went through all the boot looping, stuck on the google screen, battery pulls and pulling my hair out. After some digging I noticed that data would not unmount in CWM so when I rebooted I quess it would hang somewhere while trying to load data. Essentially, when I was wiping data in CWM it looked like it was doing something but really wasn't.
My fix is what is in this post. Basically, going to "advanced" in CWM and "reboot recovery" usually unmounts the data then you can wipe it. Then reboot recovery again as it seems to get stuck mounted again after wiping. Then reboot the phone after making sure nothing is mounting in "Mounts and storage".

Not necessarily. I have tried both TWRP and CWM, and even CWM normal, and I am still screwed. Everytime I try to restore, I get an error restoring /data. Looks like I may be going back to stock.... This whole JB thing has made my Nexus feel like a Droid Bionic! :crying:
EDIT: Used the Gnex Toolkit, got back to stock, rooted and recovery installed and right back to AOKP 40. I think I will wait until this gets ironed out. Bit more work than I would like to crack flash. :laugh:

[Q] rooted dinc; install TOB3.0 - format mounts and storage? status 7 & more issues
I've been working hard to get my dinc rooted, and am about to install Touch of Blue 3.0, but just want to double-check what to do to 'format everything in the mounts and storage menu except emmc and sdcard' because I believe my first installation attempt failed because I didn't do that.
My first attempt....
I rooted the dinc using the instructions over on android forums - all things root - how to root, and also upgraded the hboot/radio.
Then I then tried to install TOB3.0 by wiping cache & dalvik cache and installing zip from sd card. I got an error -- set_perms failed and then failed with Status 7. (This is the same error I got at this point a month ago when rooting another dinc and trying to install the rooted stock GB ROM. Then, I installed TOB2.2 and that worked fine.) After the Status 7, in trying to get out of that, I somehow put the phone into a boot loop, and it kept booting to the white screen w/ green HTC Incredible. Soooo, took the battery out to get out of that, and went to my back-up of stock unrooted froyo. many hours later, I am now at: 2.2 froyo 3.26.605.1; rooted; unlocked; s-off; radio 2.15.10.12.20
Now I want to install TOB3.0 correctly. I did see that I didn't follow the TOB3.0 directions the first time and didn't 'format everything in the mounts and storage menu except emmc and sdcard'. Do I do this by going into CWM -> mounts and storage and then doing 'format /boot', 'format /system' etc for everything except 'format /emmc' and 'format /sdcard'? Then do wipe cache/dalvik cache and install zip from sdcard?
Could skipping the formatting be the reason for my 'set_perms ... Status 7' error in the first place? If the installation fails again with the set_perms problem, I see that there is a Fix Permissions option in CWM, but I don't know how to use that.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes do the wipe just as you said above. Not wiping could have been the issue. Also just a recomendation, but i would consider upgrading to TWRP recovery.

Do a full wife before you install new ROM.
For installation, first, make sure you got your ROM and the correct Gapps on your External SD Card.
After that, enter CWM and:
select "wipe data / factory reset"
go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!
under the same menu, format /sdcard (be careful NOT to format /external_sd by mistake)
install ROM (from the external sd)
install Gapps (from the external sd)
reboot your phone
Please, note that every step of this tutorial is mandatory! Credit to Arsradu
select "wipe data / factory reset" i did that but i this line

....under the same menu, format /sdcard (be careful NOT to format /external_sd by mistake)
I suppose mnt/sdcard but I do not see any /system and what do you mean with format ?
What am I doing wrong ?
thanks
