Can't wipe data/format from CWM TOUCH.

I'm trying to wipe my drive and user data but all that happens is a reboot? Help, I have no idea what to do.

I can format cache and system but not /data. Any help?

I jumped to stock recovery and was able to wipe from there. How weird.

Yup its must else it wil get stuck at boot screen

if you are updating from previous version to newer one wipes are not needed but if you get a bootloop then just boot into recovery and wipe data

No need to wipe

[Q] Boot looping after installing AOKP

Hello!
I just installed AOKP and my phone is stuck at boot. What to do? Thanks.

Wipe everything and reinstall

Do a full wipe and then install Rom.

Noob question regarding ROM update.

I'm currently running CM10.1 Unofficial. In order to update to latest version, do I just install in CWM like installing a new ROM? Will I lose anything?

Depends on what has changed in the ROM...if you don't know or are on an older version I'd recommend wiping data/dalvik cache maybe even format your system. It won't hurt

I'll just be updating from 1-14.

A simple cache wipe (maybe dalvik wipe) is all you need if your simply updating.

+1 ^ , and don't forget the gapps.
If you run into issues by only doing the cache wipes, reflash with a full wipe

Similar question, if I clear cache will I lose all the text logs and Bluetooth settings and all sort of tiny settings?
