I have accessed my stock recovery and formatted or wiped my "Cache partition" without any problems. But when I choose "Wipe data/factory reset". There's an error coming up. Here's the log:
Android system recovery <3e>
Wipe Cache Partition:
-- Wiping cache...
Formatting /cache...
Cache wipe complete...
Wipe data/factory reset:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:Can't open /data/cwpkg.zip
E:Can't open /data/cw.prop
E:Can't open /cache/cwpkg.zip

Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete...
I believe that drive E:/ stands for my MMC right?, I've double checked it, file that being called on is not existing. Even the stock MMC doesn't have those files.
Could anyone shed some light regarding these files that are being called on?
Thanks.
P.S.
Just a guess, "cwpkg" means "ClockWork Package"?
Edit:
corrected typo..
[Q] Are the errors causing you any problems? or are you simply curious?
I wonder if you get this error if you perform a wipe cache before doing a wipe data/factory reset. Someone with more Android experience than myself might be able to confirm this???
But, perhaps the wipe data option performs its own wipe cache and as you've already done that it then can't find the files to delete??
Skanob: wrong. E: stands for Error:
i would try reflash the ruu

There's actually no problem.. It boots itself fine after wiping. It really doesn't matter what you choose first or last, my take on it is just whenever you choose the wipe the data. that certain "error" comes up.
But everything is A-ok.. So i guess you can say i'm just curious..

I'm getting a failure message while trying to do a wipe data/factory reset in clockwork recovery? I will do it again and get the exact verb-age in a few minute.. It's something to do with a failure ext4 in dev/block/yadayda/etc
Any ideas?
I even tried the leedroid wipe.zip file as well, and that has no errors, but then I try the clockwork wipe and I still get it...
UPDATE!!!
Here is what it says verbatim
--- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
Is this normal? What is happening? Any help would be appreciated?
original post updated with exact text from clockwork..
Hello,
Whenever I try to flash on a new ROM I always wipe system/data. Then fix permissions. But whenever I try to wipe dalvik cache I get the same error (well.. at least I think it's an issue) every time,
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcb1k1k1p2
(File exists)
Davlik Cache wiped.
It did say that it wiped it, but it didn't mount.. any suggestions? Does it get wiped?
Thanks
Edit: Also should add that I had that this problem before and after odining to stock.. didn't think of that before.
Please excuse me as I am new to this....
I have a g2x rooted, nvflashed cwm and installed EaglesBlood build 5. Each time I have installed it after booting the phone into cwm and .... please see remaining post......
clean install of egb
1) Power down phone and restart / boot into clockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
2) Select " -wipe data/factory reset -- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
3) Select wipe cache partition -- Wiping cache...
Formatting /cache
Cache wipe complete.
4) Select -advanced
5) Select -Wipe Dalvik Cache E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
Dalvik Cache wiped.
6) Select +++++Go Back+++++
7) Select -install zip from sdcard
8) Select -choose zip from sdcard
9) select -p999_6_26_12.zip
10) Select -Yes - Install p999-6-26-12.zip
Then follow the remainder of the configuration options of the install ( specifying 21y ) as an option and gaps from sd card and then run the installer. Install completes stating " Congratulations...
EaglesBlood has been installed into your devic
Installer Status:0
Can someone please tell me why I have an error " E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]" being displayed after selecting _wipe Dalvik cache. The phone then completes wiping Dalvik cache.'
As stated earlier, the program does install and apprears to run as well as egb build 4
Is there something I need to do to get this issue resolved. I have tried a different sd card as well as then formatting it with cwm and or in my computer (scanned it using win7) for errors and bad clusters, and copied files from my computer to the root on the sd card. I did root, flash CWM using nvflash, do a droid bachup prior to first installing EGB build 4. and now am at a loss as to how to remedy or repair this "unknown volume" issue on a new install.
Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance.
I received that error before while wiping davlik. But only once after I reboot an tried again I never got it again. Am sure you tried that just giving my experience on it

Its normal for are device we don't have sd ext.... That's why it skips over and continues

So it is not dependent on baseband, kernel, rom, etc. It is just a g2x thing, and nothing to be concerned with while moding/flashing various rom's ? :good:

Hey guys, my friend accidently formated my phone data in twrp in the wipe section.
In the wipe section, instead of giving factory reset, my friend clicked on the 'format data' . The problem now is my os has been wiped and while trying to install a new os, its showing can't mount cache, system and data. (invalid argument)
I am using TWRP 3.0.0-0
I tried mounting them in the partitions to mount, but its not getting selected.
SYSTEM, CACHE & DATA
Any solutions guys??
at first im just failing at wiping cache.
now i cant even restore my TWRP backup.
it is saying "Failed to unmount '/cache' (Device or resource busy)
now my phone got no OS :crying::crying::crying:
I was facing the same problem.recovery twrp>wipe>advance wipe and then select system>repare or change size>change file system>select FAT
after doing it try to restore your backup and if you get error the only way flash your phone to the last build number(avalaible for your phone) and then install twrp recovery(last version).
restoring backup should be work with this method.
you can try this method
Mount>select partitions to mount : cache
select cache and after doing it go for restoring.

No need to restore /cache partition, exclude it The partition is used by TWRP that's why you can't unmount it.
I still have the same problem persisted. Can't wipe cache with this TWRP recovery. It says can't mount/unmont cache device or resource busy. Restore of the backup was impossible as well. Even when cache was excluded. Changing file types and repairing it also didn' work. In Mount cache is ticked permanently and it can't be unticked.
