[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
you may be right there, but i'm sure 99.9% of those people don't read enough to know what they are exactly doing... and should be doing.

i do agree with you that using amon to wipe is one less variable to worry about.

for infomational purposes...

here is what VR_superwipe does:

wipes cache

wipes dalvik-cache

wipes data (x3)

wipes .android_secure

wipes boot (x3)

wipes system (x3)

wipes battery stats

VR_Superwipe.zip is literally Calkulin's Clear Temp + (Calkulin's Format All x3) line for line.

i'm not an expert but I don't think any of the zips wipes sd-ext which could be what's causing the problems. my process is flashing VR_Superwipe plus SDEXT. never had an issue and I can say with confidence that i've flashed over 50 times using this method.
