[i9500-MG5] Wipe cache partition not working. - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ,
I flashed my i9500 to MG5 , and now I'm unable to wipe cache partition from Stock Samsung recovery .
When i first get into recovery it says no command . Then displays the menu . Then on selecting wipe cache partition , it says erasing first and then says Error .
What to do ? Is anyone else facing the same problem ?

It happens when you do OTA updates for me too its happening again and again.
If you want it to be working again, download the latest firmware from sammobile (I know its slow, I don't know any alternatives link), flash it using odin, your problem will be solved!!!
After that never ever factory reset phone from setting menu always do it from the recovery if you need to do.
Hope this helps! :silly:

Try wiping caches. And if that doesn't work flash a new ROM
why on earth would you bump a thread that is less than 10 minutes old?!?
Its already at the top
You need to flash back to a more stable version, you probably on some nightly

Well first you need a recovery which I assume you don't have yet. Read this to learn how to install one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018179
You will need to unlock the boot loader and then flash a recovery. (I would recommend TWRP)
Then boot into recovery and go to the wipe menu. From there, select cache and dalvik cache and then wipe them.
If that doesn't solve the problem, choose a ROM from the development section, download it and put it onto the /sdcard partition. Then boot into recovery and do a factory reset from the wipe menu. Finally go to the install menu and select the ROM you downloaded and flash it.
Unlocked/rooted still rebooting

Yes I did stock and pit and still reboots into recovery and regarding the recovery I have the CWM_6.0.4.7_Touch_GT-I9505 .
One thing I found out is that the volume up is not working while I'm in recovery , I don't know if this has to do with the issue .
thanks again for replying

Mate i am lost ...
Pit should had formatted everything so no leftover files anywhere , stock rom.......do not know what else to do , i will keep an eye on it , if i find out any thing i will let you know
Just in case did you tried a differente recovery ......
It's impossible if the flash with Odin was succesfull that you still have a custom recovery.
I think your volume up key is stuck.
Can you enter download mode?
When i have an error like this.
In odin:-
1) Download stock rom, also check the md5 to make sure its not corrupted!
2) Select NAND ERASE ALL
3) Select your partition table, and be sure its the right one
4) flash!!!!
5) If this problem continues, go to recovery and format /data and /cache
Good luck sir!

You have to wipe System also. I got this problem today in YU5510A when I was flashing AOSP Extended over MIUI8 then I wipe system/cache/dalvik
Try this if not works try to wipe everything. I am sure problem ll be resolved.

Any errors in recovery when you make full wipe?
If you have a "emmc"error ... the flash of the phone is ruined and the is no software solution for this just hardware
If the are no errors try to flash the bootloader or root the phone (it will voids your warranty)and try to flash a custom rom
If the phone is not rooted and still have warranty .. send it to cusomer service centre..it will replace the mother board

You should try to:
Download SM-N910C_WanamLite.OH4_BL_Modem.tar.md5.zip and SM-N910C_WanamLite.XXU1COH4.V3.0.NO-WIPE.zip from here
Put SM-N910C_WanamLite.XXU1COH4.V3.0.NO-WIPE.zip in your external sdcard
Reboot the phone in recovery mode. From TWRP go to Wipe/AdvancedWipe/ and tick DalickCache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache and "Swipe to Wipe".
Always from TWRP go back to the first page, hit "Install", search for SM-N910C_WanamLite.XXU1COH4.V3.0.NO-WIPE.zip in /external_sd and install it, after Wipe Dalvick and Cache.
Reboot in Download mode
In your PC launch ODIN and put SM-N910C_WanamLite.OH4_BL_Modem.tar.md5.zip in the AP button (untick autoreboot)
Connect the phone (in Download mode) to the PC via USB cable
Let it be recognized by ODIN and hit the start button.
Once successful flash, disconnect the phone from the PC, take out the battery, put it back in and turn on the phone.
It should solve your bootloops

When you download just the bootloader you have to put it in the BL button. But what I've linked is a modem/bootloader package and it has to be flashed from the AP button.

You need to go into TWRP then go to wipe then select Format Data then type in yes. This will remove the encryption on the internal storage and fix your issues.
Actually NO
