I was using CWM and switched to TWRP for this reason. No extra superwipe steps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] LoopDoGG79:
Cache wipe does not wipe battery stats, only cache and dalvick. Per if it helps you sleep at night, use CWM and wipe them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Dougshell:
I think that was put in place to keep people from asking for it, as well as for completeness.

It does nothing on our phone. Fact
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
I know they say wiping battery stats does nothing but so many swear by it that at this stage you might as well let them just go for it.

OP - It looks like TWRP has won in your poll, now that you have asked the question what will you do with this info?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Corseting:
I've tried both... never really had issues... One thing Im finding is that alot of MMS/SMS/Call Log etc. recovery tools will not work with a CWM 6 nandroid backup... Managed to get them out with Titanium Backup though, so not a problem
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RaveOnSRV:
After switching from CWM, I've never had an issue with TWRP 2.2 so far.

But, if you decide to use CWM, I'd like to suggest: CWM 5.0.27non-touch + Darkside scripts.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] legauxg:
TWRP is preferred

I use TWRP because of the UI and reliability. Never had an issue with it.

In some threads, OP request that you use a certain recovery whether its CWM (certain version) or TWRP so I usually keep different recoveries saved to my sd card just in case.

Plus TWRP looks better.

Go with TWRP, you will be for sure to not need those Darkside Wipes. (Reliable)

on CWM you may have to use them, depending on version (Questionable)

Indeed it's JB by OTA.

I'm not sure of that :rolleyes:

It's easy to post one question without search :(

But it's Friday and I'm cool :cool:

And my answer is for all members who are searching something about root process, etc....

On first go in my index : [INDEX][27th SEPT 12] INDEX of ROMS/RECOVERY/ROOT/GUIDES/FIRMWARE/KERNEL/VIDEOS/etc..

Read and search a little ;)

and you will find that if you haven't rooted your tf300 before the JB update, you cannot rooted actually your device in JB :crying:

So you must wait a process for rooting your tf300 on JB

Guys! please help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
I highly recommend you update to at least stock Gingerbread; that way you will be able to sideload apps without any hassle, plus you'll be up to date in general. When you activate USB mass storage from the device, you don't need to mount the external sd separately. They should appear on your computer as 2 removable drives, or sometimes Samsung likes to hide the external sd in a folder called "external-sd" that shows up on your internal.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laughingT:
agree, re recommendation to go GB or at least froyo. is the external_sd folder visible in the phone and does it see the real card?

even when my phone was new, running froyo stock unrooted, and I had never put an external sd in the device, the folder existed, but it was only a placeholder for mounting an sd card.

you can check settings, sd storage, to see if the phone mounted the external sd properly.

Hi everyone,

I've installed the ROM CyanogenMod 10 with the latest nightlies. Two days ago the wifi connection was stopped suddenly. I also noticied several bugs and lags in the lastest nightlies so I decided to come back the nightly dated 09/21 but no changes...

Today I've done a backup from CWM and everythinh works fine except the wifi connection. The mobile is still trying to activate the wifi but nothing more...

So I'm looking for a new modem to be able to establish the wifi connection with my Internet box.

I've found the following modems on XDA but I don't know if there are compatibles with my configuration or if better modems exist...

- Install the "full rom" KI3 (I don't if it's the right translation...). This ROM will completely reset my phone.

- Then install the rom KK5 to add new functions

- Flash CF-root LPG to obtain the admin authorizations and ICS 100% clean

Is it really necessary to respect these steps???

[Galaxy S III General] Kremata:
Hi guys,

"Do I need to make a full wipe?", I see this question asked over and over on development thread. And the developers patiently answer all the time. Well you can stop asking, here is the answer.

There is a lot of reason why you should do a full wipe.

1-) It prevents FC's, bootloops, gives better battery life and reduce other unexpected problems.

2-) By trying to save a little time you might end up with problems, loose a lot of time try to fix them, and finally making a wipe anyway to solve your problems.

3-) Some people just flash over their old ROM and then complain that the new ROM is buggy or Android plainly sucks. I don't think it's fair to blame hard working people(who gives you FREE products) for your own lazyness.

So why not do it right from the begining and save some time to everybody. Here is the procedure that I use(Thanks to Memnoc and DarkAdrien.) and is the most clean installation possible.

Memnoc and DarkAdrien's original post was created for battery optimization, I only re-wrote the steps that involve flashing a new ROM.

This will work with every Rom but some ROM's might ask for extra steps (fix permission, etc..), read instructions first.

1- Make backup of your current ROM. (no need to do this everytime, I keep one backup of my favorite ROM)

2- In recovery go to "mount & format" and format system.

3- Format data.

4- Format cache.

5- Go to Main menu and do "Wipe data/ Restore"

6- Wipe cache partition.

7- Go to Advance and wipe calvik cache.

8- Flash your new ROM ONLY. (IMPORTANT: Wait after #10 before flashing anything else)

9- Reboot

10- (This step might not work between ICS/JB or between AOKP/AOSP/Samsung)

Go back to recovery and in Backup choose "Advance restore" and then choose "restore Data". -Reboot again

(if you have problem with some apps, you might want to uninstall them before the backup and reinstall them the normal way after #10, or you can use Titanium Backup to test if they work well in the new ROM)

# 2-3-4 are not doing the same thing as #6, Read original post bellow for explanation.

This whole process from 1 to 10 should take you 15 minutes. From 2 to 7 should take less than 1 minute.

Your phone will have a very clean ROM and all your apps, contacts, SMS, games, etc... will be exactly like they were before.

I've flashed over 50 roms using this procedure and it always work fine.

[Galaxy S III General] kilrah:
You obviously don't have 20+GB of data to backup/restore each time...
[Galaxy S III General] esist:
Then, by your own admission it is not always necessary. "better" ≠ "necessary"

If posters were clear that it is only recommended, not necessary, then no one would need to ask the question in the first place.

I've seen posts telling people to do a wipe when upgrading from official stock to another official stock. There is absolutely no need for that except in the rarest of circumstances.
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
full wipe is only required if there are major changes in the new rom to be flashed or the user is facing any trouble in his previous roms. Unless otherwise its a waste of time.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
That list is a little excessive and needs to be tuned down. When you flash a rom it already formats everything except for "system"
[Galaxy S III General] g4rvd4:
Question.

I've been using LI5 for quite sometime without any problems, and a couple of days ago suddenly the phone started showing signs of sluggishness.

Even moving between the screens of Apex launcher seemed to be quite jerky. I tried uninstalling some apps etc (thinking they might have caused some memory leak or something), to no avail.

Just wanted to ask, will a full wipe and reinstall solve this problem? I'm planning to restore all my apps back.
[Galaxy S III General] riso123:
I upgraded from stock ICS to stock JB, then through three more JB revisions.

[Galaxy S III General] g4rvd4:
Cool. :)

Which ROM btw?
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
Well I'm sure if we think it over there can be plenty of reason why someone doesn't have room for backups if they are a flashholic, loves music, games and always on the go.

Who knows, I don't think it's that big of a deal.
