[Q] Doing a Full wipe with details - T-Mobile LG G2x

I understand that in order to flash a ROM you need to select the wipe data/factory reset button in CWM recovery. But I can't find any thread that answers various questions:
1) Does the phone need to be plugged in during this?
2) Does the battery need to be at a certain level? (obviously not near dead, but maybe 100% or closest possible mandatory?)
3) What needs to be set on the phone before turning it off and going into recovery? debugging turned on? mount or unmount anything?
4) While in recovery, should I select to have my data, cache, sd card mounted or unmounted?
5) Some threads say to use the format options in recovery. Should I format /sdcard and-or /system ?
6) USB storage is the External SD card, correct?
7) If I have CWM located on the Ext. SD card, do I need to mount it via CWM recovery screen or do anything else differently before I begin flashing a ROM?
Thanks!

It was recommended to me to have it unplugged before entering into CWM. I read the battery "should" be over 50% because JUST IN CASE, you don't want to run out of battery in the middle of a flash...but with this phone, flashing is so quick anyway...but still, personally, I make sure it's over 50%. I haven't messed with any mounting/unmounting features in CWM during flashing. Whether to format your sdcard or not should be obvious to you...it has nothing to do with flashing a rom or kernal...it's for setting up a new sd card for putting apps, storage, and/or swap. As far as CWM being located on the external sd card, I don't really understand. You should use NVFlash to flash CWM to your phone (with external support)...if you dig around these threads, you'll see a One Click NVFlash tutorial and software. I hope this helps. I"m new too...I've learned all this by reading these forums this past week.

I already did the NVFlash etc. But at one point in the recovery procedure you have to press a button saying Flash CWM to External SD card or Flash CWM to Internal SD card and the forums said it really doesn't matter, so I went with external.

That meant that when you load up CWM, it will allow you to browse in your external card for the roms, kernals, mods, etc. that you wanna flash...so that's where you'll store that stuff that you'd like to flash. If you had selected "internal", then CWM would only allow you to browse your internal card.

[Q] CWM External SD Card?

So basically I am migrating ROMs and have a lot of junk apps that I want to remove by using the SuperWipe full script. Then straight afterwards I was planning on flashing the rom (Revolver V4). The problem is that Superwipe wipes the internal storage where I would actually put it and the rom. I don't know how things would go if Superwipe wipes itself and also what I would do if the ROM file was deleted (I wouldn't be able to boot).
I figured the solution was to flash both off my external sd card however I can't find any such option for that in CWM. Only 'Install zip from SD' which points to my internal storage.
1. Would it be ok anyway to flash it on internal storage.
2. If not, how do I access external storage from within CWM.
3. If impossible, what other options do I have for doing this?
1. No, the ROM .zip would be wiped, and you stuck.
2. There are some mount commands, but to use those you need adb working, and if you have adb working, just 'adb push rom.zip /sdcard/' then flash from internal.
3. You could install the latest Rouge XM touch recovery, which has support for internal and external, and is still touch.
Hope I've cleared it up a bit.

Yea go to cnet.com and download Recuva. Connect ur phone to computer. Run Recuva enable deep scan and you stuff will be restored
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
boot ur phone to bootloader and run ruu
Try going into Recovery, and wipe cache and wipe Dalvik, then reboot.
Not sure if this will work on the One X. But I've had occasional issues with the internal SD mounting on my HTC Flyer tablet, and wiping cache and Dalvik fix it every time.
Its worth a try, anyway.
If your problem is that you cannot mount the SDCard (as opposed to being able to mount it but it is empty) I ran into something similar during my 2nd ROM flashing experience. I got into this state by doing a factory wipe from the bootloader screen (as opposed to doing it from recovery). This wiped my entire SDCard partition, even the filesystem on it. So when I booted into Android, it failed to mount the SDCard altogether, saying that it was corrupted.
I had to re-format the SDCard from Windows in order to recover, by doing the following:
1. Boot into recovery (for me was TWRP 2.1.8.1)
2. Select "Mount"
3. Checkmark "Mount SDCard"
4. Connect device to PC via USB cable
5. Select "Mount USB Storage" in TWRP
6. On the PC, find the SDCard's drive in My Computer, right-click on it, and select "Format"
7. Proceed with formatting the SDCard ("Quick Format" is fine)
8. Safely remove the USB storage from Windows
9. Reboot the device
Upon rebooting, the SDCard mounted fine, although all data was erased.
Lesson learned: do factory reset from recovery, not the bootloader screen

I'm having the same issue, but I can't check the SD card box in TWRP?
Any idea what I can do to fix this?
I had the same issue. however if you USB to PC and format sd drive, twrp will sometimes find. Also notice that when I did that my rom zip, kernal files to flash were in the twrp file in recovery.
Make sure you have everything backed up.
I guess I should add that twrp wouldn't mount however USB to PC still found it.

Ditto, exact same problem. Any solutions?
I've been having the same problems. My phone has been in a soft brick for 1 week and a half now and nothing seems to work.
Suggestions I've been given (None worked for me):
-Hold power button for 10 seconds for a force reboot
-Flash stock recovery, go in Hboot, Clear Storage, Flash TWRP, wipe cache.
-Connect an SD card reader to your phone with the rom in it.
-Partition SD from TWRP
-Relock phone and flash stock RUU (My phone is on 1.94 firmware and there is no equivalent RUU. I tried all of them and they all say I have the wrong ROM)
The only suggestion I have been given that would work is to buy a new phone... But I am not that desperate yet.
Maybe one will work for you

Now that I think of it, it is probably not necessary to checkmark "Mount SDCard". The reason is that doing so only mounts (or unmounts) it for access within TWRP and should not affect the USB access. So if you cannot checkmark it, try just ignoring that step.

I didn't. I had to wipe the SDCard by formatting it. More correctly, the factory reset that I performed from hboot wiped the SDCard, so it was already wiped... I just had to format it. Lesson learned: only perform factory reset from recovery (TWRP or CWM), as it does not touch the SDCard.

My phone is now booting, but it still can't mount or recognize the SD card. Do I have to reflash again or is there some setting I can use to get it to mount?
I did this and this is what Xsmagical and I did to fix it.
Take the stock android recovery from a ruu or stock Rom. (I used the one from 1.85 ruu but it doesn't matter.)
Fastboot flash the stock recovery to your phone and then reboot into bootloader where you originally wiped.
Factory reset from hboot and then Fastboot flash twrp again, mount sd should be available now. Mount sd, copy whatever Rom onto sd card and flash from there.
Freaked me out too man

How does one extract the stock recovery from a ruu or stock ROM? (or, would it be possible for you to send me the file?)
and does flashing the stock recovery require me to relock the bootloader?

sdcard mount issue in Recovery

I am looking for some help with my sdcard on my P3113
I can no longer mount my sdcard in recovery. "Error mounting /sdcard!" any time I try. Here is what I have done so far to try and fix it:
Reflashed CWM 6. No difference
Flashed CWM 5. No difference.
Used Odin to return the device to stock.
Flashed CWM 5. Still same issue
Flash CWM 6. Still same issue.
Any reason I can't mount my SDCARD anymore in recovery or any suggestions on what I can do next to fix it?

Have you tried formatting the card?
Yes, I have tried multiple different cards also and they mount just fine once the ROM is booted.
Which SD Card (internal or external)? Also, does the SD Card mount properly when booted into Android? I had the external sd fail to mount in recovery, when to use it in Android, and it wasn't recognized there either. Had to do a reformat before my tablet could recognize it again.

The problem is with the External SD card not be accessable while in recovery. Once I am booted into the OS I am able to access it and use whatevers on it no problem. I have formated the first card and that didn't help, so I switch to a different card and that didn't work either. I have tried flashing Recovery again as well as returning to full stock and rerooting. Recovery just won't see the card. It's not that big of a deal, i just want to make sure I am not going to start having other problems too...

[Q] Flashing a custom rom on a phone with no SD card

Hey there.
Im planning on buying the LG G2 32GB version since its a pretty good phone for a pretty cheap price. Now I know that it doesnt have an SD card opening, and you only got the internal storage. This isnt a problem for me but Ive got a question when it comes to flashing a custom rom.
When flashing a rom you first have to go to recovery and do a factory reset and wipe the dalvik cache. I know the drill since ive been using CM11 on the phone I have right now (LG L7 II) normally you have to place the .zip from teh rom on the sd card and then flash it. but this phone doesnt have an SD card wich means youll have to put it on the internal storage. But when you do a factory reset all the internal files get deleted, wich means also the .zip from the rom will be gone. the same goes for nandroid backups. can anyone explain to me how to get teh trick done?
Thnx in advance

The device will have an emulated external SD partition, and this partition is untouched when you wipe system/cache/data before flashing a new ROM. Stuff like photos, videos, and other files are saved in this partition too. This partition can be wiped from recovery (TWRP/CWM) if needed, but typically isn't and shouldn't be lest you lose all your stuff (including ROMs, Gapps packages, and nandroid back-ups). Just make sure you do wipes within recovery, and not a "factory reset" through the device itself, which will wipe all your stuff.

In TWRP, when you tap "wipe", tap "advanced wipe", you're given the following options (I'm looking at v2.6.3.2 on my LG G Pad 8.3)"
Dalvik Cache
System
Data
Internal Storage
Cache
Micro SDcard
When doing a clean install of a ROM, you wipe Dalvik Cache, System, Data, and Cache. Internal storage is the emulated SD card, and (obviously) Micro SDcard is your microSD card. If supported, USB OTG will also have an option for wiping. If the device doesn't have a microSD card slot, you won't be given the option. If you want to flash a ROM (or whatever) just save it to whatever folder (like "Downloads", or make your own) you want, do the appropriate wipes, then flash from internal storage.
Thnx

[Q] FORMAT Data/Media... ?

I would like to format my /dat/media.. and then I would like to re-flash the ROM I am using. Since we all know the Note 5 does not have a sdCard port/reader
I can not figure out were to put my ROM that I will be flashing. There is no safe place to store it is there if I do a full FORMAT of /data/media. If I
format /data/media wont that wipe everything ?? even my image file of my ROM. Normally I would store it on an external sdCard then format /data/media..
and then copy the ROM image file back from the sdCard to the phones internal sdcard.
Bottom line .... I want to WIPE my entire phone EVEN /data/media then re-flash my ROM.
Thank you for any tips help.

If you have twrp recovery, it will not touch your internal sdcard or any of it's contents unless
you purposely click on the advanced wipe option indicating that you actually want to format it.
By default the internal sdcard in twrp is not check marked.
Simply doing a "Wipe" and a "Factory Reset" in twrp will not format, wipe or delete anything
located in your internal sdcard.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Yes BUT you missunderstand what I am trying to do. I want to WIPE internal memory. I want to wipe all traces of old programs located both on the internal SD and also located in data/media
Make sense ??
If I do it your way it will still leave all the stuff in the internal area and without doing a format DATA ( YES ) the stuff in /data/media will also still be untouched.. I want all traces of old user installed programs gone.

My friend -
I am so sorry, but I am still confused. So were would I put my image file (my new ROM) so it is safe from a wipe since you are saying it is ok to do this:
Wipe: cache devcache data internal system and then FORMAT DATA ( data/media )
??
To me this seems like it will wipe the ENTIRE PHONE ... were would a safe place to put the ROM be so I can flash it after ..??

Copy the image file into your computer then after the wipe copy it back into the phone while the phone is still in the twrp screen.
The new twrp 3.0.2 allows USB file transfers while twrp is running.
