Cleaning the device wont matter how much userdata you delete or move, cache is a different partition... Here you can see the different partitions on for example Nexus 5 [0]
Try wiping cache as i said: reboot to recovery adb shell "rm -r /cache/recovery/*" This gets rid of old update tarballs. There is no personal data in cache, the /cache/recovery/ is only used for updates. The reason why it stores it there is so tempararly store it there while the device reboots to flash (note that recovery does the flashing [1], ubuntu-device-flash just pushes the updates to the device) [0]: https://github.com/ubports/android_device_lge_hammerhead/blob/ubp-5.1/fstab.hammerhead [1]: https://github.com/ubports/android_bootable_recovery/blob/ubp-5.1/system-image-upgrader 2017-01-20 23:34 GMT+01:00 advocatux <advoca...@airpost.net>: > > El 20/01/17 a las 22:32, Stephen escribió: > >> >> Perhaps others can advise how to backup the relevant directories (e.g. >> contacts, messages etc) to do a new install, and copy back in the contacts >> etc. I don't know enough (yet) about Ubuntu Touch, but wouldn't it be much >> the same as Ubuntu desktop.
