Is there a way to wipe the dalvik cache without being rooted?

[Q] Do I need to clear any cache before update?

Hi, do I have to clear dalvik cache before I update my ROM?

It doesn't really matter. You're supposed to clear Dalvik cache and wipe the cache partition after the update, but I've forgotten to do it before and I haven't noticed any bugs so I would say just do it if you remember but if you forget it shouldn't make any difference.
in addition to the above ... most roms these days have those tasks done automatically as the rom installs! :-D

What's the difference between cache and app cache?

So, if I wipe cache in TWRP, the app cache as reported by the system remains. Just tonight I was able to wipe over 2GB of app cache within the system, something I thought I would have rid myself with the wipe cache function within recovery.

That is because you're wiping the device's /cache partition, while app-specific cache is stored on the /data partition. So, It needs manual cleaning from within the app settings.

(help) need WIPA DATA

Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache and format /System
is necessary ""after""
or before ???
or both times when WE port the new rom ? ?
or why we do it if we not do it what happened?
When you decide to install a new ROM, then you have to do those wipes,
Cache and Dalvik Cache are related to every APK in the ROM, when you start boot the ROM for the first time, Dalvik cache indexes all APKs and cache it's dex files into the Cache partition, that happens only once, and you can actually see this when Android tells you it's "Optimizing Apps x of x",
So, what happens if installed a new ROM without wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache?,
Dalvik cache won't index the new APKs from the new ROM, and you'll end up having a ROM full of FC msgs,
So, that's why you need to wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache when you install a new ROM, before the ROM or after that won't matter, but don't boot up a new ROM without wiping those partitions.

clearing system cache via twrp

I see dalvik / art cache and system, data
which one do I chose to clear system cache, without bricking my system?
You have only one option - dalvik.
Cache is old days from, it doesn't exist anymore on pies. If you try to wipe you'll get an error in TWRP.
System and data are speaking for themselves. Wipe system - brick phone, wipe data - loss of apps and personal stuff
