it takes around 10 minutes for me, try enabling rm -rf in settings if you want to speed it up a bit

Tried to update from ICS to Sky_Jellybean and when I go to wipe cache etc. the cache says unmount /cache and the rest say mount ..
I can not get it to format/reset it just freezes on formating cache and then reboots phone out of CWM?
Any Suggestions?

Reflash cwm or use goo manager to install twrp

beta testing required...
if you are so... attached to sense... and, you are going to flash sense 4/4.1 and its derivatives.....
could you please test this recovery for me?
http://www.mediafire.com/download/m9rvgffkv2x2sps/recovery-test.img
it is twrp 2.4.1. I derped the recovery.fstab so that it mounts the sd-cache and sd-data in the cache and data folders respectively. and, note: BETA! even i haven't tested it as my digitizer broke
i wanted to know if it is possible to format our system partition as f2fs and have it work our data partition on kitkat is already f2fs so are we able to do it to system? in twrp i attempted this by fro matting to f2fs but when restoring system it reformats system as ext 4 is there away around this? on twrps website there is a command to keep a the file system it is "tw_rm_rf – uses rm –rf instead of formatting system and data partitions, this option is used to prevent changes to the file system settings such as file system type, " i found it here http://www.teamw.in/twrp2-reference-guide would this help to do this? i don't know where to put this command in though
Edit: on a sidenote i formatted cache as f2fs and it booted
Edit 2: i looked at it again and cache was reformatted back to ext4

Did you ever succeed in getting stock "DATA" partition to F2FS? I couldn't restore my backup and phone wouldn't boot anymore.. so went back to EXT4..
Maybe @djvita knows something, I think he has been experimenting a bit with F2FS..

yes i was able to get only the data partition to f2fs no other partition will stay another format once it boots it reformats or when restoring system in twrp it will restore the system partition as ext 4

interesting.. how did you do it? I did it in TWRP 2.8.1.0 via advanced wipe and after that got stuck on the motorola bootlogo..
That is the same thing I did but after whipeing I restored my data partition. I think the reason you got stuck in a bootloop is because you did not clear dalvic and cache or you do not have the kit Kat boot loader

I tried it again.. this time it worked.. I rebooted after format directly back into recovery and was then able to restore my data from ext4 to f2fs.. not sure, why it didn't work the first time around, but thanks for checking back!
Pardon me but i cannot find the right place where to post my problem.
After failing horribly to instal zombie over crombi and failing also to restore a nandroid, I tried to do a factory format but now it says unable to mount /cache twfunc::copy logcant open dest log file /cachemkfs.f2fs binary not found, using rm -rf to wipe
wiping data without wiping /data/media... Done.updating part details...
E"unable to mount ,' /cache
I really feel at a loss as when it happened the last time on the other tablet it came round fine after a full format, but this one doesn't want to know..
Please help thanks

Hey mate ....
Sounds like you got yourself into a pickle .......
Give this a try .... Boot into recovery and ........
Code:
adb shell
killall -19 recovery
make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
This should format /data, You will need to use the hardware button to force reboot......
reboot back into recovery and see if /data can be mounted now ......
Thx Josh
Thanks for the quick reply do you think this will fix cache mount and dalvik mount problems as the system can wipe date but not dalvik and cache.
Fixed

After much formats it appears to be that twrp was corrupt as after using a fresh recovery blob every thing seems to be in place and cache and dalviki can be mounted.
The only quirk is that no matter how I try to instal Zombie after the message to restart and enjoy it just hangs on the droid animation for more than an hour, so for the time being I went back to crombi-kk until someone knocks some ideas into me.
Thanks

Are you on the 10.6.1.14.10 bootloader?
Yes exactly that. Thanks
*removed*
It's awesome. Usually, wiping system, cache and data lasted like 5 or 10 minutes, I tested this recovery and it wiped everything so quickly. Thank you so much for this .
Edit: Installing works.

Here is TWRP for Moto E LTE with "Use rm -rf instead of formatting" enabled by default.
Moto E LTE uses f2fs format for the userdata partition and TWRP doesn't format it correctly by default, causing issues with mounting.
# README
Warning: backup any important data on your internal storage first!
Boot into TWRP and perform the following:
Wipe > Format Data > type "yes" then enter
This will format your userdata partition using mkfs.f2fs, in case it isn't already
Now, whenever you wipe data, TWRP will use rm -rf instead of attempting to format using make_ext4fs

When I try to format data it fails, it's unable to mount anything. My phone is a surnia XT1527. Now when I try to flash it says unable to mount /data.
wiped system, devlik cache, data, internal storage, chache. dont know how to restore
I had a problem with someone using remote spy software and hiding spy apps on my phone. I have a MOTO E 2015, XT1527. I had this phone rooted with a custom rom installed. my OS was lollipop.
I went into TWRP recovery and wiped:
devlik cache
system
data
internal storage
chache
USB-OTG
I did not have an SD card inserted at the time
I am not very knowledgable on all of this (not so tech-savy but can follow instructions), but I need to fix this phone asap.
My phone keeps re-starting and will not go any further than the boot animation screen (if that's correctly stated). I can get into recovery mode but that's it. I have no backups. recovery tells me that I have uninstalled the OS, which I'm guessing means I have uninstalled everything else too!
I don't know what to do from here, what to do first or how to do it, I do have access to a computer, and need help PLEASE!!! I have been looking up ways to fix this but cant find clear answeres directed to this phone and problem specifically.

Definitely wiped everything. You need to download a ROM, boot into recovery and install it.
So glad I found this thread! I'm using the latest 3.0.2.0 but this setting saved me from going crazy!
I was seeing too much red Big thanks!
