Any one???
Do you have clockworkmod installed? If yes, wipe data using it or do a factory reset.
It'll wipe all phone data . Backup your important data and wipe your data partition. It should work.
Click thanks if I helped you!

You tried using kies and you want to use the factory reset, so I'm guessing you are not rooted right?

Copy the important files from the internal and external memory to your pc and do a data factory reset in settings, backup and restore. Best is to reflash the rom with Odin. See my siganture for roms and tutorial for Odin. Good luck

Factory reset won't touch your phones internal SD so you don't need to back up to your pc
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Though I would, if you flash a stock rom most are wipe roms that will wipe the internal sd card... This is how I do a restock...

Copy the backup to ur pc as restoring to factory Rom will wipe internal memory.
After installing Rom u can copy back the titanium backup folder.

Sync with Google and see if they are restored.

a full wipe using recovery mode can delete my photos in /sdcard ?! wow that's new
i 'm pretty sure that "wipe data/factory reset" wipes /data and /cache partitions and it has nothing to do with /sdcard & /sdcard/external_sd
unless if have erased all ur data on internal SD using the devices settings without entering recovery .. if so , then it's impossible to get those files back .. sorry for that
anayways as a last try u can see this app :https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.undelete
u can also try this PC app with ur internal and external SD cards mounted as mass storage http://www.piriform.com/recuva
i tried them both with no luck
and to be clear and more specific my photos were not on my SD Card they were on the phone

"On the phone" would mean on the internal SD card of the phone, which is not wiped when doing a factory reset for the recovery or even from settings > backup and reset. All media files should be there. You must have formatted the internal SD card as well, in which case I don't think its possible to retrieve them.

Hello guys.
I wanted to know a high standard way of wiping out my FULL data after installing omega rom. I dont think factory reset is so superior.
My phone should look like a brand new without any extra data but with omega rom.
So please tell me a way. It should be like installing a new windows after a complete format
Thanks.
why do u think factory reset is not "superior"?
Factory reset is good enough. If you still not satisfied then you can try to use super wipe which you can find it in ARHD development thread.

Ok thanks.
One last question.
It says that we have to flash super wipe script in Recovery mode from internal sdcard.
Ok fine.
But then it says that again select option "Install From Internal SDcard" and choose ROM.zip.
*I am installing OMEGA rom. Will its zip be flashable this way?
*I have no external SDcard. Will my ROM.zip (Omega.zip) get removed during wipe process? Then what will i do if this happens?

Then you cannot use super wipe because it will totally wipe your internal memory.
Get an ext sdcard. Is cheap

Yh u gta have a removable sd to do a proper box fresh wipe. Then use superwipe. Or format /data

ok, i am seriously confused !! i did a factory / full wipe reset and after that i ONLY have 2gb available ??? how is that possible ???
anyone can help with this ? i am really confused here !!
PS: my photos are on my external SD
Using clockworkmod recovery????
EDIT : It only wipes apps and app data. It doesn't wipe the internal SD card.. only stock recovery wipes internal SD card.

Stock Samsung ROM's come with the stock recovery.. you'll get around 11.25 GB free I think.

any link you can share ? how to stock recover?
after that i can root again and install my custom ron right ?

I don't have the link to the stock recovery.. sorry..
You won't loose root as it doesn't wipe /system partition. All the system apps will be intact.

Wow. Noobs Galore here. You dont need the stock recovery. Even if you had it wiping data from it doesnt format your internal card. Fatory resetting (from any version of android) while booted up will clear all data and internal sd card.

......or just format your sd card

I am getting ready to upgrade to a new phone.
I would like to completely erase all data from the phone that accumulated while I owned it.
Is there an easy way to completely wipe all user data from the phone?
I'll probably donate the phone or recycle it, so I don't want any sensitive information to remain on the phone.
Thanks for any help.

Settings>privacy settings> factory reset. Then in storage unmount sd and format it.
Or if you are gonna revert to stock gb then repair using pc companion which will remove all of your phone data and then same procedure for formatting sd card. Or you can format it using pc

However if you had a custom kernel and ROM on you should wipe /system /data and /cache partitons via recovery, flash the stock kernel back and flash the stock ROM with SEUS.
