Why is that? I'm curious now.
You mean like going into storage and clicking on cache and it gives you the option to clear it or are you talking about something more advanced than that?
Going into recovery and clearing the cache is no longer necessary due to there not being a cache partition, it's now stored in /data/cache
Edit: you can clear app cache all at one by going settings>storage>cached data and it will give you the option to clear all app cache data at once

I know in stock recovery you can clear cache, it's one of the options. Advanced twrp won't let you clear it?

There is no CLEAR CACHE PARTITION option in stock recovery on the Pixel phones.
There is no more cache partition in oreo.
You have to clean every app's cache manually, take a look here for better explanation

My phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace.
1. If a phone is running stock ROM and unrooted, how can I wipe the dalvik cache?
Does the 'wipe cache partition' in recovery refer to the Dalvik cache? Does it
clean the Dalvik cache?
2. Are there other caches in my phone that needs 'cleaning' or is Dalvik the only cache in there?
Thank you!
Well, I'm not sure, but I think that you need root access to can clean dalvik

Why do you need to clear the cache? I think you need a custom recovery and maybe root also. I could be wrong.

Dalvik cache is in advanced menu, in recovery. Maybe you need root, dont know since i first rooted

There are basically 2 different caches that should be wiped when you are flashing between ROM's (or experiencing issues), the cache and the Dalvik cache. They are accessed from your recovery method (you need root) and depending which one you are using they are accessed differently, the 2 most famous (imo) are clockword and AmonRa. Now, if you are not rooted then the only way to clear your cache is by factory resetting your phone (which will erase everything). I know this clears your data and settings but not sure if it clears all the caches...

HTC Flyer: Rooted with S-off, with Revolutionary CMW 4.0.1.4
At the first attempt, I flashed the SU.zip and got the tablet working. But then i decided to flash the Leedroid rom.
Within revolutionary, i wipe the data/cache/davche and then flash the new leedroid rom. There are no issues on flashing the rom and it was successful, however when i reboot.... it is stuck on the HTC logo screen. After 20-30 minutes, the tablet just shuts itself off.
Due to this, i decided the wipe again and install a different rom (CoolHoney3D) however same issue. Then i decided to go back to original SU.zip and that is not working now as it has the same issue.
I downloaded the recovery image for the HTC flyer and try to install it with Scottsrom. No LUCK
I believe i am missing a step in the whole process. please let me know what the problem is. I read all the tutorial to do the recovery but i am a noob and couldnt figure it out. sorry for my bad english..
Thanks!

IF you have done a full wipe then you will have to flash again the rom....you have no information in your device....

Which option is full wipe?
I did 3 types of wipe (System/Cache/Dache Cache) then installed the roms again. It said the Rom installed correctly but still got stuck at the HTC screen. Like i said, i installed the original su.zip again and that doesnt work anymore
Another question, do I have to install su.zip first before installing the leedroid rom?

I will try that. Should I.....
1. Flash the SU.zip rom first
2. Flash the CoolHoney3D rom
3. Wipe Dalvik cache
4. Reboot
or skip the su.zip rom

Skip the "su.zip". So just flash the "CoolHoney3D" rom, wipe the dalvik cache, then reboot. You could format all partition before flashing the rom if you haven't already done so. In other words:
- Format partitions
- Flash the rom
- Wipe the dalvik cache
- Reboot

No need to format system
For wiping, Wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition and then wipe dalvik cache (under advanced menu). It may not all be necessary but I find many recommending all three with a new rom.
Hey, I was wondering, when I am in Clockworkmod do i have to wipe dalvik data cache and format phone? I saw a vid on youtube where i have to do all of that. do i really? or just data and cache?

Yes. You should always wipe.
In order.
factory reset,
format cache,
Advanced --> wipe dalvick cache,
Mounts and storage --> format system
Than flash your goodies!

It is always best to wipe everything. Especially when you change Roms. If you are on a cm rom and you are just upgrading to the newest version you can just wipe cache & dalvik cache, flash rom, flash gapps, & reboot. I have done it this way for years & haven't had any problems. Most people prefer to wipe everything though.
TY so much

If you do all the passages you will have more chances to have a full working device
Sent from my Optimus 2X with Paranoid Android. Thanks button is here ↓ !!! Just use it
If it's your first rom, or if you're flashing an entirely new rom, do a full wipe. Otherwise, you can get away with just wiping cache and dalvik.
100% correct

ya iv had it happen to me a few times and to wipe all of them is usually the way to go, you can use titanium backup if you just want to keep your app just if you've upgraded to a new rom like going to jb from ics then do a restore and uncheck all system settings you only want your apps and their data back, if it forces closes just reboot in recovery and wipe the delvik cache and it should fix it up
hello. i installed android 4.2.2 via odin and i didn't wipe data/cache partition before upgrade. after a while i did a factory reset from settings and after that i wiped data partition from recovery. after that i tried to wipe cache partition also from recovery but an error appeared and the phone restarted.
So my question is: why when i try to wipe cache partition from recovery i have that error? if i use any aplication to wipe cache when the phone is booted to android there is no problem. also the cache can be cleared with no problem from settings/storage. The error came up only from recovery.
Thanks.
You are using stock recovery?
I tried wiping cache. But I didn't notice error. And yes it also rebooted itself, which I didn't ask it to. But my cache was cleared

Yes,i am using stock recovery. Well i did not try to wipe cache on 4.1.2, just on 4.2.2, so i do not know if on 4.1.2 is doing the same. Do you have 4.1.2 or 4.2.2? I also read that s4 users have the same error while wiping cache partition after updating their android. Could another flash solve the problem?

actually if it does the work, it doesn't really matter if it reboots itself after wiping cache, after all you only need it to wipe your cache, so if it does the job, then why let the problem bother you

agree with you, but how do i know if the cache is cleared if i have that error?
Go to settings. Storage.
There should be a column saying:
Cached data.
If it's a lot, then it's not cleaned

now its 60mb, but several days passed from the time i tried to wipe cache partition. yesterday i received a notification for a software update. it was 4.2.2 I9105PXXUBMI1, which replaced the one that i flashed with odin I9105PXXUBMG8. when i will have time i will try again to wipe cahe from recovery, maybe the problem is fixed with this new firmware.anyway, the phone is working oustanding the way it is. thanks for the answers.:good:
