Hi guys, I need to wipe my phone, I'm wanting to start from a blank due to battery issues so need to remove apps from the SD card too (moved loads of apps to SD recently, I don't have a separate partition though) [don't want to lose photos/data]
What's the best way to do this?
I'm rooted and using stock ROM (10d)
Wanting to do this in my dinner hour so if anyone can help before 2PM (UK) it would be appreciated.

Hi guys!
First of all, I want to say that I'm *really* new to andoid and this rooting stuff. My device is a HTC HERO with VILLAINROM-v13. That being said, this is my problem:
I tried using Link2SD to install apps on my sd card, since my phone's internal memory was getting full (apps2sd was nowhere to be found in the market for some reason). I formatted my sd card using ROM manager (also flashed clockwork while I was at it), then I tried to use Link2SD to move some apps. But I got an error saying 'failed to mount' when I started Link2SD, and so I didn't get it to work. Eventually, I gave up.
A few minutes later, my phone rebooted just randomly (it took extremely long to boot up again). A few minutes after that, it happened again. This time it didn't take so long, but when my home screen appeared, all my apps just vanished, including the Android Market. Phone's internal storage was empty, and there was nothing on the first and second partition of the sd card.
I'm kinda panicing. I don't know how big the damage is, and if it's able to be fixed at all. I don't know much about rooting and hacking the Android OS (actually, I bought this thing with villainrom on it). I don't know what to search on google, I don't know how to put another ROM on there or restore the current one, I don't know what to do!
Any help would be welcome
Hello everyone, this may be a dumb question but I am currently overseas and do not have access to my PC to back up my internal memory. I would like to try a new rom but an wondering that if I do a full wipe, will my internal memory be deleted as well??? Any assistance with this will be greatly appreciated.Its been awhile since I flashed anything and can't seem to remember,thx in advance.
Nevermind....
I have been having some issues, as outlined in my last thread that I haven't managed to solve.
Had more issues last night, so decided to unpartition card to see if that fixes it as that seems to be where it started, just wanting to check how to do this safely. Do I use a2sd to move apps and dalvik cache back to phone, back up apps then erase card using phone (will that get rid of partition?), then transfer the back up from before I partitioned back onto the card? Then to be safe go back to the Nandroid of before I partitioned? I will use it like that a few days, check it sorted the issue, then try partitioning again.
If that doesn't work I will reflash ROM.
Could someone please confirm that is how you safely un partition?
Thanks in advance
ETA: Sorry I didnt realise I hadn't put anything in the thread title and now its to late :/ hopefully somebody reads this anyway!

Hey everyone!
After searching xda and reading through all the suggested threads I did not find help. Maby I just do not understand. Please give me a hint or forward me somewhere. So this is what I did.
In bootloader I accidently pushed the Factory Reset. With no warning the process started (yep, stupid me). Since there was no way to stop it, it all just happened. I booted the ROM (CM11) and it loaded OK, but the the whole internal memory (internal SD card) was wiped, so all apps that I moved there were gone, photos and music and ll was gone... Simply wiped internal SD Card and all the problems connected to it.
Now I dont really care about some photos and stuff (dropbox) but I can not get the internal SD Card working :/ I can not mount neither it via CM nor via TWRP (2.7.0.8) - HTC One S (ville) version. So it seemes it is just wiped. I know you should not wipe that and well I did not (at lease not willingly).
Could you guys help me what could I do? How to fix the memory?
I'm not sure what device you're using, so I have no links to post.
But, if you have a custom recovery and are rooted.....flashing a ROM should be all it takes to fix it.
Normally you can backup your phone via HTC backup app with one mail account. You can restore your data's, photos etc..
