How To Do Full Wipe On TWRP?

[rclai]

I have TWRP 2.2.1 installed, unlocked bootloader and rooted, I want to install a new ROM but I want to do a full wipe as per the installation instruction.

In the Wipe Menu I see 6 different options. Which ones do I wipe for it to be a full wipe?

Cache (I can probably wipe this)
Dalvik cache (I can probably wipe this)
Facory Reset
System
Exernal Storage (I probably don't need to wipe this)
Internal Storage

Thanks,
Richard

A full wipe is factory reset.

Not true, A factory reset wipes data, and cache. A true full wipe is System, data, and cache. When doing this I usually click on factory reset twice and then system twice

And I'd throw "System" in there for good measure.

Thanks guys. Worked like a charm.

There is a mod you can flash that does the same thing called superwipe

Sorry to bump this, but factory reset WILL NOT erase media on phone, right?

No, it will not. ONLY a SD card erase will wipe the media.

I use swm6180_superwipe between flashes. Not sure that it's necessarily any better than using the wipe option in TWRP, but here's a link. https://db.tt/lAVSMRwY

I wish I could remember what thread it was from so I could link you to it directly, but it you find it make sure you thank swm6180.

sorry to resurrect this yet again but dose swm6180_superwipe still work? i used to use one on my galaxy s2x but that one no longer works i have been told.
