I have updated my phone to latest official 5.0.1 and have also installed the 355 mb update that came after the main lollipop update Have wiped cached and data and done a clean install yet i still have some of the lolipop bugs..They are as follows:
1. homescreen Wallpaper gets set to default wallpaper randomly.
2. Keyboard crashes few times in a day.
3. Using snapchat and other apps continuously causes the phone to reboot
4. Overheating...phone gets heated like mad.
I noticed most of this happens when I am on 3g and on wifi everything works smooth.
my phone is rooted. Please let me know if there are tweaks or apps that i can install to fix these bugs. Thanks so much!

I think you should try some custom roms which base on android 5.0.1 for S4, suggest Omega Rom v28 .
This will fix those bugs easily

Start with a clean device. Thus wipe your data.
It's not needed to wipe your internal storage. But make sure to wipe /system, /cache en /data (without internal storage).
Hey thanks for your reply. Can you tell me how to wipe data without wiping internal storage ?? Generally when i wipe data or do a factory reset it wipes everything.

Use custom recovery like TWRP.

Hello,
I plan on selling my device and I've left a completely new unused ROM toI restore then sell it.
Can I wipe the internal memory and then restore from SD card without having any issues? I've reset the device but folders and files still remain.
Any advice?
Thanks

yes, you can perform a full wipe in cwm (factory reset, cache, dalvik, /data, /system) and then flash whatever rom from your micro sd.

technically it should but i've seen users on various versions of twrp having issues after wiping data. i dont use twrp so i'm not familiar with version is running smoothest. the older ones seem to work best.

if you go in to recovery and go to mounts and storage, format the /sdcard
Hey guys. I have TWRP 2.8.7.2 installed. I've been using Pure Nexus + Elemental X exclusively since December. This never seemed to be a problem before, but my last few flashes have resulted in sticky data. I go into TWRP, advanced wipe and wipe: DALVIK, System, data, Cache. Then, I delete Android from the internal storage and any other app directories that linger. Then I install the ROM, GApps, and kernel. Then, when I first boot my email shows up in the Google account setup. I thought "maybe it's saved on the sim card." But then I notice that when I reinstall apps, that they retain their data and my user data (for example, I don't even need to log into Runkeeper).
So somehow, despite performing a full wipe and clean install my user data is being saved. I know it's not part of internal storage so wiping that would only result in me having to copy my ROM files, music, photos, etc back over. So, where is this user data being saved and why isn't it being wiped?
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure why this is happening, it's definitely word. But is there a reason you're wiping like this when updating the ROM? You really don't need to, you can just dirty flash the ROM zip when updating.

I don't like to dirty wipe. I guess it's the OCD in me that likes to start clean every time. I wonder if it's a bug in TWRP or something.

I used to do the same thing, until I realised I was just wasting time for no benefit. I don't think it's a TWRP issue, I was using that same build for ages with no problems. You could try updating to the latest TWRP though.
Try with "rm - fr" instead of regular wipe in options, maybe this works.
Are you doing a Factory Reset in TWRP to actually wipe the rom away? You list system, cache, and data (internal storage) but not Factory Reset.
Alternatively, are your apps reinstalling after signing into your account at Setup Wizard?

Try wiping system 2x. I had to do this on my S6. After wiping the first time and going back to the advance menu, System would then show up as 2 different partitions, System Read and System Write. I had to wipe the 2 in order to do a clean install. Although this is not the case for the 6P, I have made it a habit to do so. If that fails, you will need to adb the factory image.

He's already performing a factory reset by wiping the partitions individually.

That's what you would think, but why is this happening?
FWIW, I always TWRP factory reset, then wipe all the partitions he mentioned again by itself and have never seen this behavior on any version of TWRP.

I have no explanation for what's happening, I really don't know. I only ever use the advanced wipe menu, it's pointless performing the factory reset too.
I wish to move from stock b574 to sokkoban's.
My biggest concern is that in the description given, it requires wiping data. Given that I am already on marshmallow, is there really a need to wipe data in twrp? Won't cache/system wipe just do? I don't want to wipe my internal sd plus file structure/dates. Plus all my apps!
Call me lazy but am yet to find a backup system that will return all my files & apps as they were pre-flash.
Any ideas?

actually, huawei has pre-installed backup app.. and it works great... you can backup every app plus app's data too... but backing up all those may take time..

in teory no you dont need to wipe data ...
as you know sokkoban rom must be installed via twrp
so you can :
fisrt
install twrp
make nandroid backup
install sokkoban rom without wipe
if does not work you can try to
wipe and install sokkoban rom
recovery from your previus backup the data partition
Thanks guys. I can confirm you do not need to wipe data to use the custom rom. A simple dalvik & cache wipe did it.

Dirty flash means flashing rom without any wipe or fomate, for flashing new rom it is advised to wipe system, cache,darvik cache and interal storage( atleast delete old app files) to avoid force close and other errors

U said u Wiped Data and cache before flash, so I assume you are not Wiped system. I always go to advanced wipe and select cache, data,darvik cache, system and internal storage,. And I never ever faced force close issues
