Cant flash cm with cwm4? Then try this!

Guys, whoever is on cwm4 and can't get past the android text after flashing any cm...follow these steps:
1. Download the rom and put it on your sd card
2. Reboot into cwm(4), and then wipe data, cache and dalvic cache (it is under "advanced")
3. Important: Mount /system and then Format /system (both are under"mounts and storage")
4. Flash the downloaded rom
5. Reboot (this will take time!)
Note: this is valid for cwm4, as people are facing problems with it...
you could even upgrade to cwm5, or use this workaround...

[Q] What is Brush????

I read the procedure to install a custom rom,that goes like this
CWM ( EN )
1) Download the custom ROM copied to an external SD card root directory
2) Download the recovery.img ( put in your SD card )
3) Start MobileUncle Tools ( Download on Goolge play )
4) Select Update Recovery ( choose recovery.img )
5) Mobile reboot in CWM and follow the instructions( if recovery is in chinese look tutorial "CWM for MTK Platform" )
Into the recovery:
– Wipe Data / Factory Reset -> delete all user data
– Wipe Cache Partition -> Wipe cache
- Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
- Return to recovery main interface Install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard -> Select your ROM
- Brush complete, restart the phone Patience required – first boot takes a while
So what is BRUSH COMPLETE at they last????

Select the ROM you want to install and wait for the recovery to finish it's work. When the recovery options will appear, select restart to system. The phone will reboot, the first reboot will be long...
Mind that, when waiting for the first reboot, you must be in the rom bootanimation not in the starting lenovo text logo. If you stuck in the starting lenovo text see the thread for that bug/error.

I think it is translated version. Brush complete = Flashing process complete.

Hence it didn’t work you didn’t need to flash all of those zip but just format data.

Will this work for OnePlus 6T?
