My chromecast just won't factory reset, not via the settings app and not via recovery.
If i do it via the settings app, it restarts, shows the google logo with erasing and then shows the android robot with text "Fault" and reboots like nothing happend.
If i do via recovery, it says
E:DM_DEV_CREATE failed for [system_a]: Device or resourse busy
E:Could not create logical partition system_a as device system_a
E: Unable to map partitions to complete merge.
Unable to check merge status and/or complete update merge.
Unable to check update status or complete merge, cannot wipe partitions.
What should i do?

Did you try physically pressing the reset button and holding it for the factory reset (really the ONLY way I recommend you do it frankly)

Yes i tried that method too but it also shows the android robot with text "Fault".

How old is the device? If still under warranty, I would suggest trying to get it exchanged.
