Easy wipe zips

[roy.moore]

Two silly noob questions
1) How do you run the updater-script?

2)Can I copy the lines from the Prep_for_new_Rom updater-script to the Harmonia updater-script file or does the update-binary require a specific updater-script?

Very nice, thank you for these, surely cuts down the time needed to update and / or reflash

1 = The updater-script is ran in recovery and the update-binary tells the recovery what to do.

2 = You ca copy the line over yes, but do not use notepad, you have to use Gedit for Windows or Notepad++ and must be in Unix format. Plus you have to understand want mount commands the update-binary tells the recovery to except, otherwise you instillation well abort.

Yes, I do.

I use Open Office.

Yes, you absolutely must include the mount before you can format it. In fact it's quite precise in how it must be formatted, but it's not like there is a lot to it. It's not difficult, but I mention this because I saw a few other wipers like this while looking into it, and half of them, have errors in them and didn't work.

Here are a couple of zips to make rom installs easier.

These wipe three times to make sure everything is gone, it's a lot easier than going through all the menus.
Flash them just like a rom, before you flash a rom and should work on most any rooted phone.


This one wipes only the system, boot, cache and dalvik, for when you update your rom (A.K.A. partial wipe).
It does not remove user data.
Note: Updating is really never a great idea and can lead to instability.
Prep_to_Update

This one wipes everything above, plus user data in preparation to install a new rom (A.K.A. a complete wipe).
Note: It will not wipe sd-ext, if you need more advanced areas, you will have to do them manually still.
Prep_for_new_Rom

Dam your amazing. The work u do will always amaze me

Glad you guys like them.

Kind of funny, when I made these, they sank off the front page pretty fast, now they came back with a vengeance. I guess it took a bit for people to realize how nice they are to use.

I've used this, and it's stuck on "starting first pass"...
help?

 

[LeslieAnn]

Pull battery and try again?

 

[Encerspay45]

Did that and it worked!
Weird, though, never experienced that before.. O_O
