Problem with wiping dalvik cache [XperiaS] - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi!
Sometimes i cant wipe dalvik.
For example - used XZXperience 1 and wanted to install XZX2, tried to wipe dalvik (can wipe other stuff), but cant, just nothing happens when click on Wipe dalvik.
Using KA kernel 8
Only solution is to flash stock firmware and do all process again, what im doing right now

Tried, not helping.

Try manually by:
Using a file explorer go to data>dalvik-cache and wipe everything reboot to recovery and to what you need there

Same prob.

This problem related to the kernel you are using.. flash Advanced Stock ICS or Stock+ Kernel and then try again.

I tried, it wont help. Still cant accsess dalvik cache wiping.
Like i sayed: only solution is to flash stock firmware, then root it, and then works. If i flash KAv8 or other stock ICS kernels, then problem comes back.

Go to recovery ,advanced option and mount cache. Than try it again.

Well before flashing the ROM did you create a back up?
And when ever your flashing a ROM your suppose to do a FULL WIPE not just cache and dalvik
no used to doing this on droidx and i would just start from scratch if a flash didnt go through good
i read you cant flash roms with unrevoked is that true ? i can also still get into clockwork recovery should i just try another rom ?
You can flash roms fine with revolutionary and the version of cwm it installs. Try booting to recovery wipe data cache and dalvik cache, reflash ROM and boot to system.

Flash the ROM first do the theme later
Which recovery are you on? If it's TWRP: Get Amon_ra and wipe BOOT: and System: then clear data then just flash rom. It will work. I promise.
Um, you need to have the ROM installed before you can flash a theme for that same ROM.
ALSO, I strongly recomend flashing AmonRA 2.3 to your phone before doing anything else.
If you are going to use Synergy, please follow the directions for partitioning the sd card. Simply copy your sd card stuff onto your computer, format the sdcard then partition it. Then you can copy everything back to the sd card from your puter. It will make life a whole lot easier and faster.

Gin2JellyBean Stuck on Boot

I have installed Gin2JellyBean on my R800i, but it does not seem to work.
I have flashed DooMKerneL, and using CWM, I flashed Gin2JellyBean. I rebooted my system, and it got passed the DooMKerneL, but it always resets itself after a minute of staying on the Gin2JellyBean boot screen.
How can I fix this problem? Thanks in advance

Make sure you format the data, cache, dalvik cache, and system partitions before you ever flash any rom.
I recommend flashing the latest stock ftf firmware for your phone, reboot and reactivate your phone, then flash DooMKernel. Once you've done that, then format all that I mentioned above in the recovery, THEN flash the firmware, then reboot.

Would R800i_4.0.2.A.0.58_Enhanced.ftf be considered "stock"?
(Sorry, I can't post links yet )

Yes. Reflash stock except kernel since you flashed kernel already. Then go to cwm wipe everything and flash Rom.

Nope, still doesn't seem to work. I have tried different roms that are also build off of a Stock GB, but none of the worked, only DiXperia 2 worked, but no WiFi.

Does flashtool show any bad blocks?? Can you see the kernel logo??
Do you wipe your dalvik cache after changing kernel? If not then the rom will probably fail.
With full wipe?

Wipe data/factory reset.
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Format system ( only if you have flahed the right stock kernel for the rom, and have the rom on your sdcard ready for flashing )
Fix permissions
Then flash the rom again. Should work fine then. Read and follow the instructions on the Rom page and you should be fine.

Phone's gone into bootloop

I was on MIUI v5, and I wanted to try out hellkat 4.4.2.. At this point I had CWM 5.
So I flashed twrp 2.6. I tried doing a factory reset. It got stuck while factory resetting,
Then I pulled out the battery and tried advanced, wiping cache, system, dalvik cache, data.
Then again, strangely it got stuck there as well.
Luckily I had backed up MIUI rom, so I tried restoring, but it didn't work. It goes on bootloops.
twrp recovery doesn't detect CWM .img file. So, I cant revert to CWM as well.
It does flash .Zip files, So I tried flashing MIUI rom again ,and It still goes into bootloops.
What do I do?
P.S I'm still a newbee, It's only my 2nd rom i tried flashing.
When using 2.6 twrp in settings u need to check the box next to rm-rf than u can wipe everything except ur internal and external SD.. Unless u want them wiped than check all than u should be able to flash any ROM after wiping report back after

Will try! But as of now, It's not booting, when it does, I'll try it out!
U may have flashed too many things with out doing the correct wipes.. If all else fails just Odin back to stock and restart from there

Thanks a ton. It worked.
I just had to check the box next to rm-rf , and Now I'm on MIUI v5 again.
But I still cant flash hellkat rom for some reason.
Even though I can factory reset, and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and data.
any reason as to why I cant flash this rom??

Because you need to be on on TWRP 2.6.1 for 4.4
