I have a question that I have not been able to solve yet. Can wipe system be done in the Mi Max 3? I want to do a clean reinstallation of the rom Revolution OS and I do not dare to do the wipe system.
Yes, you can wipe /system.
Good luck......

Why would he be hard bricked by wiping system before flashing another ROM?
Because folder System is mandatory to be fount by flashing operations. If not fount, the flashing operations stops and result into bootloop. In other words new ROM must find system in order to overwrite some files only, while it keeps unchanged other ones. If he doesn't find any file (folder system cancelled) it is clear that some ROM parts are missing and return a bootloop.

Agreed. Wiping system is pointless for the OP. Just do factory reset (wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache) if you want to do a clean install. Keep it simple. :highfive:

That's just text from their text file. Ignore that. What they could be referring to is modifying system. Just listen to our advice - no need to format it.

Okay. No wipe system. I'll stay with the desire.
What all of you fail to understand is that the rom edify script itself wipes your system partition anyway...
Yet you guys claim it would brick the system... Which is nonsense.
Even if you wiped the system partition, the recovery would still be unaffected, which means you could just install a ROM of choice to revive the phone.

You're absolutely right. I will correct myself because the rom above was wiping the system anyway; any good full rom does as you mentioned regarding the rom script.
However, let's say he didn't make a backup, his download of the rom was corrupted, or this was just an incremental update, then he might run into errors. I've come across many flashing too fast without reading and doing things incorrectly, and they end up with bricked devices. It's better leaving the OS alone and let the update script of the rom take care of it. Simple factory reset (wipe data, cache and dalvik cache) is usually enough.

Okay, thats good! is ur back-up saved on external sd card? if it is, try to restore ur working ROM first.
do the following:
1. boot into recovery
2. wipe/ format the following (find the proper entry in the CWM menu structure):
/data
/system
/cache
Dalvik Cache -- please note that this is *different* from the /cache of the previous line!
Internal SD
Leave the External SD! DO NOT FORMAT!
3. restore ur back-up ROM
4. reboot
I have installed several times the rom on galaxy w, always with a good result, but one day when riavviai normally my phone with above cm10, went into bootloop for no reason, at this point ripristinai everything and re-installing gingerbread, then repeat again the whole practice, but since that fateful day I no longer install any rom, the device must always be in bootloop, it only works gingerbread, why what has happened?

You probably clear the /system after you flashed the rom. Or you didn't flash the rom at all.

What @hasan4791 is trying to say is that the path you specify in PhilZ recovery (the last option under Advanced) has nothing to do with how ROM is using the storage, and where it puts the data. It's strictly for the recovery itself. The folder structure for user data is different between Android versions, as already explained. It's the way it is, there is nothing to fix...

One more thing, if we like to jump from rom to rom, better is to move al our files to data/media/0, so every rom can see them, that's why I opened this thread, because I flashed 4.4 and all of my files were gone

I would try first of all to wipe the cache maybe that work. And I don't know if there are gapps that work full on the beta, there was a ROM builded from the beta with gapps that work but I'm not totally safe were this ROM is.

Wipe the cache dont work. Instalation starting but within several seconds fail ( and information about the size of a partition). extension of the partition will be useful for other mods, so another room does not solve the problem.

Hello,
how is the correct size for system partition? on my P6 is this partition only 1,02Gb and 40kb free after Update to B507 via LocalUpdate. I think is to little or?
Last night i`m back to full B125 Stock, but partition size is the same.
How can i make the size bigger?

Dalvik is part of data, which means you will need to mount them. To mount encrypted
EDIT: data partitions,
you need TWRP 3.0.0 or later.
Although if the latest version of TWRP fails to mount, you have a bad partition there and you'll have to wipe it anyway.

You press volume down and power to get into the bootloader then volume up or down until it says recovery then power to boot into the recovery.
There is no cache partition on the Pixel.

1. To clear the app cache for all apps, go to Settings > Storage.
2. Select Cached Data to clear all app caches simultaneously.

It's interesting, I flashall'd yesterday, with no -w. And my active partition is fine, but the other one bootloops. Have not started digging into it yet, but it is interesting. I did the flashall since it seems like the best way to keep both partitions healthy.
Now I did root the active one, no TWRP, but I can't imagine that would do it.
Still lots we don't know yet. Keeps it interesting.
Well, I can understand that Google change things with the Pixel. After ten years in Android, five Flagship phones, a Google Nexus 5 and since October 2016 a Pixel XL. With this NEW Pixel way of things I'm kind of lost here. Maybe I'm too old, but if you got something good like cleaning the cache partition, I don't want to lose it for another “good thing“. I think that we must keep the good things and add new good things without losing the ones that we already have.

You cannot clear cache partition anymore when there is no cache partition at all on Pixel devices.
"On devices that support seamless updates [Google Pixels], Android basically slipstreams OTAs as it writes the updated partitions, meaning that it can merge in changes without first creating copies. An advantage of this system is that it does away with the need for a dedicated /cache partition. It does not exist on the new Pixel phones and isn't likely to appear on future devices supporting seamless updates.
Likewise, the /recovery partition has become largely redundant. Historically, the stock recovery image was used to install OTA packages, perform factory resets, and wipe the /cache partition. Installing OTAs is now handled by the OS, and there's no need to wipe the /cache partition anymore, so the /recovery partition has been removed, as well. Since the ability to perform factory resets is still important and the Android team still wants to allow for sideloading OTAs, a functionally similar recovery feature has been integrated into the /boot image."
The cache is now stored in /data/cache thus no option to clear the cache from the recovery.

There is no cache partition on the Pixel XL. There was a cache partition on older devices, but with the Seamless (A/B Slot) partition mechanics the cache partition was moved into a directory on the data partition.
