Hi Denis, thank you for your answer. If /data (USERDATA) contains also app data, when I execute in recovery a `data/factory reset`, the output is ``` -- Wiping data -- Formatting /data... Error mounting /data! Skipping format... Formatting cache... Formatting /sd-card/.android_secure... Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure Skipping format... Data wipe complete. ``` When in advanced menu, I tried to manually mount /data, I got --- Error mounting /data! --- When I tried to manually format /data, I got the same problem.
Do you have any idea how to solve this problem. I finally succeeded when in advanced menu, I tried to `format /data and /data/media` which output --- Formating /data... Done. --- Reboot proove the formating was successful and old apps disappeared. - Fil Lupin. ------- Original Message ------- On Monday, July 31st, 2023 at 4:05 AM, Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli via Replicant <replicant@osuosl.org> wrote: > On Sun, 30 Jul 2023 10:17:59 +0000 > Fil Lupin via Replicant replicant@osuosl.org wrote: > > > Hello, > > I installed recently a Replicant 4.2 on a Galaxy S3. > > Since I made a mistake while restoring a backup, I decided to factory > > reset and install again the device.
