[Q] Error wiping dalvik cache - Acer Iconia A500

So, i am in the process of changing roms on my iconia, i restore factory defaults, wipe the cache, wipe battery status, and then clear the dalvik cache. when I go to wipe the dalvik cache, i get E:unkown volume for path [/sd-ext]. It proceeds to wipe the dalvik cache and i get no errors when reflashing my rom (taboony) or installing villans custom kernel. It flashes everything correctly but when I load my iconia, i get a fc when loading super user. I reinstalled iconia root which temporaroly fixed my fc, but after reboot again i get fc when loading su and no fix. Any idea whats happening and how I can fix it. Sorry about the typos here, using a netbook and have sore wrists.

The Error message you get is no problem because you dont have an ext Partition on you SD card. And if there is no ext Partition the recovery will not find it and gives you this message so dont worry about this.
Because of superuser: Go to Rom Manager and choose "fix permissions" and let it do its thing. Normaly this helps with FCs.
If this does not help. Go to settings - applications - manage applications - search for superuser and delete all Data at superuser app.
I hope it helps.

[Q] [CM7RC1] App Installation Issues

A week or so ago, I flashed "CyanogenMod-7.0.0-RC1-Liberty" from Rom Manager.
Ever since then, I've been having some issues when installing apps from the Market. Sometimes, installation will fail, giving me the message "Insufficient Storage Space". I checked my settings, and I have quite a bit of space left.
Has this been an issue for anyone else, and does anybody have a solution?
I wouldn't use rom manger at all. Doesn't sometimes work with the aria. Flash rom using your Clockwork recovery. That's a much trusted way.
Oh, really?
I guess I've been doing it wrong all along.
So should I reflash manually?
Yes, I would wipe and reflash from clockwork. Get to it by holding the down volume button while turning on the phone and selecting recovery.

Thanks.
And by "wipe" do you include wiping the delvik cache?
do the wipe data/factory reset in clockwork, then in advanced, wipe dalvik cache.
wiping the cache isn't always required, but it won't hurt you.

cant flash new rom

Hi
I have a acer iconia a500 and i was trying to flash a rom using the acer recovery installer, i have dont this about 10 times but this time when i booted into the recovery kernal then wiped the chache and the dalvick cache and the battery stats then installed minimalist 3.1 it installed then i rebooted and it did not have the launcher and all my apps where still there. How can i fix this i have tried other roms same thing i need help fixing this
Not only wipe cache user data.i format partitions as well. Reboot back into car.and wipe cache again after flashing rom before booting into it first time.there is a thread about this
+1 to erica
You need to do a *full* wipe before flashing a new ROM.
if i do a full wipe will i loose all my data ie music etc also where is the thread about it?
If running it fro Acer recovery installer, just check the 'wipe data' checkbox. It won't erase your /data/media files. This is all I do when flashing a new rom. Have never had any issues.

[Q] AROMA Installer Not Performing wipes

So I tried reflashing the ViperTouch 1.0.0 rom with aroma installer. When I choose the full wipe option, it doesn't work, I end up with the same rom I had before I tried flashing. This is what the log says:
-> Executing Full Wipe
->preparing system for full wipe
->backing up user apps first
->Erasing & Formatting /cache as EXT4
If I manually wipe data, dalvik cache and cache, and then choose to install without wiping, it installs, but I want to know why this happens in the first place.
I also tried flashing SabsaPrime v14.0. But had no luck there either... Whether I manually wipe, or let aroma do the wiping, I get the same result (a failure). I also attached the log for that installation, notice how it says there's an error?

Clearing Cache without recovery

Hi All,
I have root and want to try some build.prop tweaks, but am aware that you have to clear cache after you change the file. I usually do this via CWM but, clearly that isn't an option yet for the 9505
I've been poking around Android Tuner Free and notice an option to "Clear all caches" in the App Mgr. Would this do the same as clearing the dalvik cache through CWM? I don't want to try this without having a backup and a working recovery to break out of bootloops.
Thanks for any help you can give,
Mike.

Stuck at boot 'Launching apps'

Hi all,
Since I tried to update my phone, I'm stuck at boot after updating apps.
Screen displays 'Launching apps' but the phone seams stuck.
I already triedd to wipe cache and dalvik cache.
I also wipe several partitions (including cache, dalvik cache, system, data) and then try again to install and boot the ROM but same result.
Finally I wiped all the partitions (cache, dalvik cache, system, data, internal data) and install ROM again but I'm still facing the problem
Then I found this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/help/stuck-android-upgrading-starting-apps-t2825113
So I tried to use 'Fix permissions' option without any success.
After that, I also connected to the device with adb and execute fix_permissions.sh script provided in the thread by it doesn't work better.
Do you have any idea how to fix that?
Thanks by advance.
Have you tried sideloading another ROM and flashing to see if the issue still persists? I assume you get this after it optimizes all the Apps?
I forgot that I have no more access neither to adb nor fastboot...
I read that my last chance is LGNPST.
Do you have any recent pointers to a process to recover my phone, please?
Thanks
