New here so please tell me if this is in the wrong forum.
I have a Acer Liquid Metal on 2.3.6. I have a custom ROM T&L. It came preinstalled with Link2SD. I like to try lots of apps and this problem seems to be haunting me. I reset my phone on the 26th Dec as it was so annoying. I think I have set up Link2SD correctly. I have a 4gb SD with 1gb as ext2. Please see the screen shots attached.
If I have Link2SD, why do I still have a problem with low internal storage?? I have had to remove some app's but the internal storage always gets lower.
Have I set Link2SD up correctly? How can I resolve this problem?
If you need anything further please let me know.
Thanks,
Matt
I have the same problem
Same issue no one help me... even if i link all my apps still internal memory get low....
Even with Link2SD, a part of apps stay on the main RAM, I think there is no solution to that

Hey all of you are getting confuse, this is the solution and it was already mention but maybe you get confuse... Using link2sd...link all your apps as normal, probably after a couple installations you will get low memory, but how is that possible... well..
Just download ANDROID TERMINAL EMULATOR from Market and install it(you must be ROOTED to use it).
Now just TYPE in Terminal:
su
a2sd cachesdreset
After this your device will reboot and you will get a lot of space on your phone... probably link2sd should add this feature on new version but IF not this will works ( i believe that some info stay on phone and link2sd can't see it but phone will keep showing it even if that is garbage or already move to the 2nd partition on your phone just do does command and that is... after that you will love link2sd and will never go back or use app2sd....
Tested By Me... On my Galaxy Ace

I have the same problem. Is it solved???
Hi Guys,
I own Samsung Galaxy Y Duos S6102. Its internal storage is approximately 180Mb. I have rooted the phone and increased my storage to 1Gb using Link2SD.
Now, i have installed around 25 apps and i link them all using Create Link and checking on all 3 checkboxes. Still, my internal storage is getting low. Now i cannot install any apps as the internal storage has become less than 25Mb
When i see the storage info from Link2SD it shows 650Mb free out of the 1Gb partition that i created.
I tried the solution posted above but could not do it. If it helps please be more descriptive
Thank You

an easy way to gain at least 40 mb of internal storage on this phone:
open dialler, dial *#9900#
and then select 'copy to sd card'
results vary but it did help me to regain about 40 mb the first time i tried it
Use ram booster as well as delete all the cache and try to install mount2sd better than link to sd I hope it will help you

You need to install link2sd plus, which enables app and data files to be moved to sdcad
Hello, been awhile...
I have a question concerning the internal storage the E739 has.
Currently it has about a gig more or less of internal storage, so here my situation. I recently have gotten a new phone, and want to hand this one (e739) down to my son. The thing is I do not have an extra SD card, nor money to purchase another. Is there any possible way to maybe partition some of that internal storage to an emmc mnt? I wouldn't need much just a little for some games (emulators, some of them require an sd card.), and place to save a few pictures so he can use the camera.
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be very much helpful thanks.
P.S. I'm a little late for his birthday =[ wanted to figure this out by then, sadly it was yesterday.
EDIT* I prolly have my wording all wrong here, what I would like to do is partition an internal sd card in the e739's internal storage if that's possible.
Ok, with the lack of responses. Let me rephrase. Is there a way to install apps w/o an sd card, for apps that ask for an sd card?
I am trying to search on my own in google and here, as well as a few other places. All the results I'm getting are, move apps to sd card, increase internal memory with an sd card, etc. I kinda want to go the other way, and split up my internal memory. Or just have a way to trick apps into thinking my internal memory is an sd card because obviously I do not have one, nor can get one atm.
I have root, and can flash anything thats needed, I'm pretty used to all that stuff.
Nevermind! I have found a solution. I thank anyone who had tried to help me search w/o replying.
Here is a little guide I had found to Mount /cache as /sdcard. Hope it helps others.

Sorry for the increasing number of threads.
How do you format the internal memory, having issues with the phone usb storage being 'damaged' from flashing with repartition ticked in Odin I think.
The phone boots and operates fine apart from not being able to use the camera or save anything (phone says please remove phone from usb storage)
Thanks in advance
Thread closed, duplicate of original here.
@OP just re-ask the question in the original thread if you dont get an answer, dont make duplicates and dont bump the original thread after a few hours if you havent had an answer, bump after maybe 24 hours.

Hey all,
I recently fresh installed android 4.3 and i love it.
just some small issues like gallery being terribly slow.
fixed that by installing quickpic.
further than that no lags!
One slightly bigger issue. ...
my internal sd was renamed i guess... file like pictures where not showing in gallery and such.
i went looking for them with es file explorer and found them on device memory.
so you would say problem fixed....
only when i go into recovery and try to install from internal sd, the newly renamed internal memory is not showing but yhe old one...
is there a fix for this?
Maybe the gallery is so slow because of the mixedup memory???
Hope i make some sense.
If there isnt a fix i will have to try to do a new install but format internal sd first.
hope someone knowes a way to fix this a easier way
thanx in advance.
Not sure what you are saying but suggest you read the stickied faqs and guides first,
Storage post for one .
Fixed! For everyone who has the same problem:
Just move everything from "old'' sd card to the new 0sdcard exept 0, legacy and obb.
Cant find the link anymore where i have read this... will post and give credit to the person who wrote it when i do.

Hey!
I'm having trouble using the Android OS to move apps to the external SD card.
I know this is a fairly common problem, and I've Googled it quite a bit, but haven't found a proper answer yet.
I am on a stock, unrooted Samsung Galaxy S3 running Android 4.3.
My phone recently updated from 4.1.2 to 4.3, and with it came the option to move apps to external SD.
I tried moving many apps, upon which my phone states they were transferred successfully, and it reflected the change in the individual app's storage overview.
Observing that my free memory had not increased for the phone's internal memory however, i used ES File Explorer to investigate.
I found that not a single byte had been written to the external SD (with one possible exception, see below), and all files remained on sdCard0, ie. the phone's internal memory.
I also noticed a new "partition" that I haven't seen before the last update, named "emulated", which contained two folders with identical content and size, one named "legacy" and one named "0". They, in turn, are both identical to the sdCard0 "partition", meaning that for some reason, "emulated" displays the exact content of the phone's internal memory in two different folders.
Finally, I noticed that my LOST.dir folder on the external SD card seemed unusually large (9.1 GB!).
I am not positive those files weren't there before the move, but I believe they weren't.
Seing as that folder is for corrupted data, I deleted its content.
Now when I try and launch any of the moved apps I get an error saying it has stopped working.
Allthewhile, the amount stored on the internal and external cards (except for LOST) haven't changed, respectively.
I read this is because the phone mistakes the internal, emulated SD card for the external one, and believes it has moved the files to the external card when it in reality has moved it on the emulated card.
Is this correct?
Does anyone else have this issue?
And most importantly, does anyone know of a way to solve the issue without having to root?
Thanks!
henninkn, have you found the answer yet?
