How Can I Wipe the Cache Partition on 7.1, Android 10? - Nokia 7.1 Questions & Answers

My phone is getting progressively slower in the last year and one suggestion was to do a cache partition wipe by booting into recovery mode. I tried holding the Vol Up + Power buttons to turn on the phone but there is no indication that it entered recovery mode. If I continue to hold both buttons, it seems to turn off again. Any suggestions. Thanks.

After a several tries, I did bring up the little green Android man, but nothing else happens. The text in the middle of the screen says "No Command".

Ok, I did boot into the recovery mode, but there is no "Wipe cach partition" options. Only "Wipe data/factory reset", followed by Mount /system, which is not what I want. Is the wipe cache option no longer available on Android 10?

Make sure your phone is connected to a cable

Yes, I did. That seems to be the only way to get into the recovery mode. However, I did some search and found that since Android 9, Android no longer use "cache partition", thus no cache partition to wipe. Is this true? Here is one of the links:

[Q] Galaxy 5.0 Stupid Question

My 5.0 player is in Android system recovery mode and I am just trying to wipe data /factory reset. I can scroll down using the vol keys but I can not select the option. When I try to select the option by pressing the power button nothing happens. I know this seems really lame but it is driving me crazy. Please help.
Does the CWM menu just disappear? If so, I've had that problem a few times. Just reboot (forcibly) and try again.

When I press the power button nothing happens. If I hold it down it shuts down. When restarted it goes right back to system recovery menu.

stock recovery uses the home button not the power button for select.
Update: also newer versions of CWM (vers 5.x.x) can use both power button and home button.

Phone stucked on CM7 logo

Hi,
my girlfrend has a HTC Legend and some time ago I flashed her phone with CM7, don't remember exactly the steeps but it was a very long procedure (something with gold card, ruu, etc...). It was also rooted.
Now her phone started to crash on opening any application and now it doesn't boot anymore, it is stuck on CM7 spinning boot logo...
I don't know what to do, I have a Galaxy S2 where I can boot in recovery mode and wipe cache, dalvik or install new ROM.
Here what I managed to do is to start the phone with Volume Down + Trackball + Power into a menu (it say HBoot 1.01) but here I don't know what to do .
Please help !
Thank you.

When you are in the bootloader menu use the vol-down / vol-up-buttons and go to recovery, then press power. You see a red triangle. Then press vol + and the power button. You are now in the blue recovery menu. Goto wipe data/factory reset and then to wipe cache partition.
Then you can reboot.
Good lock!

stuck at android system recovery 3e

Hi,
as title says i'm stuck at android system recovery 3e. All I did was turning on the phone and it went straight into this recovery and stuck there. I tried all of the options there (apply update from cache, wipe cache partition, wipe data/factory reset,...) but nothing changed. I've searched and read forums about it and they suggested to go into download mode by pressing volume down button + camera button + power button and then use program called Odin. The problem is that i'm using Atheros XP7400 mobile phone and i have only volume down/up button and power button.
Any ideas how can I get into download mode?
Thanks for answers

Recovery is power+BOTH volume buttons. For next time, always choose "Normal" when updating SuperSU binaries.
@rkgarg2000,
I'm not on here as often anymore. Sorry I missed your response and pm.
Did you get the issue resolved? As Steve says, hold down all three of vol up, vol down, and power buttons to enter recovery. Once in recovery, perform a wipe data/factory reset. Let us know if you have additional issues, or if that does not solve the problem.

[Q] Can't boot into Recovery?

I've tried holding Power + Vol Down, i've tried letting it go and re-holding it when the LG Logo appears. I have TWRP installed, and i want to be able to boot into recovery incase something goes wrong with my system, but nothing i do seems to help.;
Only thing i can do is hold all 3 buttons, allowing me to disable "Hardware key control mode". How do i get this thing into Recovery?
What happens when you hold the power and volume down buttons? Do you get the stock recovery? If so, choose Factory Reset and that'll take you to TWRP.
Power + Vol Down, Factory Reset.
If unable to get into Bootloader, i found out personally that i just wasnt holding the Volume Down button hard enough.
[Youtube video on how to actually do this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-cTpsDLNF8)
Also, keep in mind for the Verizon G3, when you enter the recovery, you will NOT be asked to reset your data, but there will be five options and one of them is factory reset. That's where you want to go. Nothing is actually reset.
