Hey all. First of thank you for your time. This might be a silly question, but I am seeking some help. I recently upgraded and flashed to Orion 2.7. I followed proper procedures by wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache. Installing ROM and GAPPs. And wiping cache and dalvik cache again. After restoring my apps, a number of them seem to be running extremely slow and laggy (Snapchat, Instagram, and many others). I reverted back to the old Orion 2.5, where I did not have any problems initially, but now I seem to be having the same problem as on 2.7. My concern is that I am using a external Sd card as application storage and that when in recovery, it is not wiping SD cache. Does that make sense? Any suggestions? Any help will be appreciated!
Apps In the extSd would be very slow of their configuration in sdcard is removed. Thats the mistake i think

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.
This started happening with a working RR android 7.1 ROM I have used for several days. Today, I wanted to try out LineageOS 14.1 so I made a nandroid backup of data and internal storage. When I rebooted into RR the screen was flickering and a message constantly popped up stating that com.android.phone stopped and Calendar stopped and com.android.media stopped etc etc.
So I went on and did a full clean flash
I tried t remove my sim and the clean flash but to no avail. I do advanced wipe --> Dalvik/ART cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, and Cache before every flash today. Then i flash ROM and latest gapps, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot.
Even without flashing gapps, the problem is still there.
Running on TWRP 3.0.0 (worked for several days on RR android 7.1 ROM), but tried on 3.0.2-2, 3.0.2, and 3.0.1 with the same results.
How did this happen? Is my EFS and IMEI f'ed because of the nandroid backup of data and internal storage?
How do I fix this?
Kind regards and a happy new year!
Same here. Twrp is the culprit, I'm afraid. It isn't taking good backups. Just fresh install RR and download all your apps, it'll work. Can't wait for twrp update...
i needed to format system to ext 4 and now everything works!
Hello everyone, I'm running on a resurrection remix ROM based on marshmallow. Previously I had cm13, when flashing the ressuruction ROM I wiped everything except internal and SD. After the first boot completed I had EVERY single piece of data the same , I had my wallpaper, my apps, Bluetooth pairings and everything else located in /data and I got a LOT of fc's from Google play services framework. I went to my file manager and looked for /storage/emulated/0 but there was actually no symlink of my internal. I found my internal storage in /data/media/0 but what's the use, I can't even capture a picture as all apps don't have access to /data without root. So I decided to go to my recovery and wipe my data. This time my data successfully got wiped like usual but the symlinking problem was still present. I went to my recovery and wiped my internal thinking my problem would be fixed but it didn't. Even when I flashed the cm 13 ROM I had the data wiping problem but I never had symlinking problems. How can I fix it, please help!

Hit "Thanks" if I helped?
I have noticed recently that when I restore my stock ROM from twrp that some apps don't update and some can't be downloaded, they get stuck at the download pending or downloading screen and never download. Had anyone ever encountered this problem? The stock ROM is not rooted or modified in any way.
So I am encountering this issue as well. Very odd behavior after restoring the stock build after coming from Lineage. What I getting is an Error Code 0 when trying to update some apps. While uninstalling the error coded app does not allow a re-installation. Again with an Error Code 0 (which turns up nothing when trying to search Google for the error). I've tried all the basic stuff, like clearing the Playstore's data, clearing the trouble apps data, rebooting, etc. They just simply fail to update/install. It's not happening with every app, just some. Dropbox being a notable one. I simply cannot install it. Infact I side loaded it and it immediately force closes upon trying to open. This has to be some odd permission issue.
Wipe cache and dalvik cache?
I seemed to have the found the solution. Before I restore I had to wipe everything except my microSD card where my backups are saved. That includes wiping internal storage. So wipe system, dalvik, cache and internal storage, then restore from SD card and everything worked fine after that
HELLP! My head hurts from thinking what to do. I am trying to wipe out my System, Data, Caches and everything successfully get wiped except Data. The Data is not getting wiped and all the apps persists even after multiple ROM installation (including a totally different ROM). What can I do to wipe the Data?
Alright, thanks for replies guys, I fixed it with fastboot erase. (-_-)
