[CM11] Upgrading M2->M3 issue - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I installed the M3 version of CM11 tonight but after i flashed it via CWM when I unlock the screen I have an error about Trebuchet saying that it stopped. The error appears after every reboot.
I also lost all of my screens adjustments (icons, widgets, ...).
I switched back to my M2 backup for now
If you have any advice.. you're welcome! ;]

Backup your files and do a full wipe when you flash M3, this is the best solution imo.

I'm new in this world, so can I will ask this question :
Will the full wipe delete every datas on my phone? Even the backups?

No, the backups will not be deleted.
In recovery:
- data factory reset
- wipe cache and dalvik cache
- Flash M3 and you`re done and there should be no fc`s anymore

The data/factory reset that gee2012 is suggesting will wipe your installed apps and app data from your phone, but wont touch anything on your sd card which includes backups.
I would think going from M2 to M3 would only require a cache and dalvik cache wipe though.

Thank you, but is there a way to get back my old M2 adjustments and apps? Or should I restart everything?

If as you say you have fc`s i would suggest a clean install with a full wipe.

If a install requires a FULL wipe, does that mean a factory reset/ data wipe/ a cache wipe and ext wipe?
if not, how to do a full wipe.

since the other guy wouldnt help out. but hes right, should be asked in Q&A section.
back ur sd card up on your computer, including the nanoid backup folder, install recovery, do a fullwipe, mount your phone again and transfer the saved files back to your sd card, you will still be able to use the nanoid backup you have saved on your sd card.
as for what to wipe, im not 100% on it i just wipe all but ext3 usually.

[Q] How to do a COMPLETELY factory reset?

Xperia P lt22i
Rooted
Locked bootloader
I'm a noob and yes, I am retarded (You'll know why).
So, I've changed some stuff in my phone:
Status bar, boot and shutdown animation, themes, CWM recovery, xperia Z lockscreen, a custom feature for the camera, and so on.
I didn't do a backup for all those things (I didn't know how, and I still don't), I tought I could wipe data or factory reset my phone and all these thing would be gone and my phone would be totally "factory reseted".
The question is simple, how can I reset COMPLETELY my phone? Is there any method to do it?
(sorry for my english)

just do a full wipe and reflash the rom you are using.

it might me a hassle to find your stock rom, so i would reccommend installing a custom rom. There much better.
Check out your phones dev forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1729
Download a rom that you like (read some comments and see if its good), and place it on your sd card
To install a rom you must do a full wipe. To do this boot into recovery and choose: wipe data/factory reset , wipe cache partition, then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache.
Then choose install zip from sd card, and find the rom you downloaded and install it.

[Q] Restoring to Stock ROM on GT- P3100

Hi All,
I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 P3100,recently I rooted it and flashed Ubuntu,it was successful but I was unhappy with what Ubuntu offers me right now.
Now,I want to switch back to the backup which I created when I was on stock.
Will this work
Factory reset --> Wipe Dalvik Cache --> Wipe Everything --> Restore to Stock ROM (Backup)
Everywhere I see here,they mention downloading the stock rom and then installing it with odin. Is it needed?Can't we just restore to a backup with wiping everything?
Please advise!!
Thanks in advance!!

Cool,Thanks for the reply.Today I couldn't wait for too long and I installed it through Odin.Next time When I install a custom ROM I would restore with a previous backup rather than downloading a ROM and installing it with Odin.

Unable to wipe system partition on Redmi Note 9 Pro

Hi everybody!
I'm trying to wipe the system partition on my redmi note 9 pro to install a costum rom ( Pixel Experience).
However I'm just not able to do that because there just isn't the option: when I try to wipe all data there isn't the system partition.
I tried both with Twrp and Orange Fox.
the error I encounter is unable to update logical partition "/system_ext".
Do you know how to fix this? Fortunately my device still works, I managed not to brick it somehow. But I would really like to install the Pixel Experience
Thank you for your time, hope you'll respond soon!

No, you flash a complete image of /system and it doesn't matter if there is any data stored on it. Everything gets overwritten.

Didn't know about it. So every time I want to install a new ROM I just flash it? And thanks for the answer!
