Another use of this can be when you try to create your own ROM. If the phone is not booting into your rom, then you can restore the partitions one by one and use the permutations and combinations to find out which problem is topping your device from booting. You can also format all of your partitions one by one from here. The last option "mount USB Storage" allows you to transfer files from your computer to the sdcard and vice versa, from within the cwm recovery.
Advanced: This is also one of the most used options in the cwm recovery. Reboot recovery: Reboots your phone to the cwm recovery. Don't know why this option is present here, because I never catually used it! I guess you may need it when you think the recovery is acting weird and you should refresh it. Wipe Dalvik Cache: Wipes the dalvik cache from your device. Once deleted, these files are then re-created when you reboot your device and thus the boot will take longer than usual, don't panic.
You will get it more clearly once you know what dalvik cache is! Wipe Battery Stats: Delets a file called batterystats. It sort-of calibrates your battery. I recommend doing this once when you install a new ROM. Report Error: Reports an error to Koushik Dutta and team. A popup to send the error report will pop up when you reboot your device.
Key Test: It tells you the number that has been allocated to any key on your phone. This is mainly used when you want to remap your hardware buttons, or just to check whether the system is registering the press of a particular hard button.
You can press the back button on your phone to exit this test. Partition sdcard: Creates two partitions on your sdcard. While one is used for general purpose like storing songs, movies and everything else, the second partition can be used to increase your RAM and internal memory. During this process, it asks you how much storage you will dedicate to the second partition.
It also ask you what swap size you want. Swap partition is used for increasing RAM, as it acts as virtual memory. Swap works only if your ROM supports that. Caution: This will format your sdcard without even warning you! Fix Permissions: This will fix some permissions gone-wrong in the internal storage. It will fix some force closes on system apps.
Power off: Duh again! Booting into ClockworkMod recovery:. You won't be able to do anything above, if you don't know how to enter the recovery! Mahesh has been obsessed with technology since he got his first gadget a decade or so ago.

OP is already able to see hidden files see this comment which explains that ES File Explorer is set to show hidden files already.
Oh sorry. It could still be hidden by ES itself. But, ES hasn't introduced its own file hid mechanism, at least I didn't yet encounter it. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google. Sign up using Facebook.
