Hi,
My phone shows that the internal storage is full only like 700mb free, I don't know why, it shouldn't be like that I checked in my computer by mounting the usb storage but nothing exceeds a couple of mbs, anyone knows what can I do?
Someone correct if I´m wrong, but internal storage is not the same thing that shows up on your computer when you plug the phone via USB.

Generally correct.
Now basically our phones have 2 separate storage components. Internal Storage and Internal SD. Internal Storage is ~2gb and is used for Apps & Games. Internal SD is ~12-14gb and is what is detected when you mount usb storage. Int. SD is used for storage of say.. pictures and music and what nots.
Next time please do a search. Or wiki it.
Ok so my internal SD is the one that seems to be full, any ideas on how to fix this?

move some apps to sd card
Transfer your porn to your external sdcard. That's what I do.
The thing is, my storage is NOT full, it only shows that is full I checked and I dont have anything on there!!
Post a screenshot or two of your About>SD&Storage and you'll get more informed answers please
This is what I'm talking about, the usb storage appears as full even though I have absolutely nothing in there

Do you have a lot of nandroid backups? As they are big and stored in the internal sd card.
/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup is where there stored.

I have a Sandisk mini SD card which is 8GB (7.78 ).
When Installed Custom Rom . I tried something with CMW and formatted and partitioned it. It showing now is 6.4Gb space and 1.38GB space is missing.
I checked with DiskManagement. it showed the rest 1.38 GB space. I tried to Unmount that and now its showing 2 drive in 1 SD card.
There is no option to change that to 1 ( 8GB ) Drive.
Need Help.
Thank you,
Ravi Nazre
Edit:
Now it does not show the unmounted Space in the Diskmanagement. I am Amazed! but most important here is how to get it back to normal.

Hi beston94,
Thanks for your Help.
I tried the Panasonic SD formater. That shows 6.41 GB. I tried FULL WRITE Erase. Still the same. Now it does not show in Disk Management that there is an unallocated space. I have attached the screenshot.

You obviously re-partitioned the SD card to have 6.4 gb and 1.38 gb partitions. You will have to re-partition the SD card again. Formatting alone won't re-partition the card. It will just wipe what is on the main partition, which looks like the 6.4 portion.
Yeah!
So How do i re-partition the SD card again ?
What are the steps involved without using a 3rd party software ? ( If there is.. )
or Please let me know the name of the software which does that.

sd card issue
First format your sd card. recopy all of the files to sd card by. plugging your phone into your laptop and clicking mount as disk drive. then looking for the card that is not marked HTC Storage. since their is 2 storage folders since you have internal and external storage now. then with phone open astro, manage files, ext_sd and all of your files should be there. once you have remounted sd card.
I recently flashed cm10.1 on my GS3 and now I've got all my internal storage stuck in the storage/emulated/0/android/obb or storage/emulated/legacy/android/obb locations. Under settings it shows total space 12.05gb, available is 668mb but less than 1/4 of the visual bar is full and accounted for. Sd maid is showing the obb folder is holding 11.39gb but no matter what explorers I use it always appears empty. Anyone know how to free up this spae? I can't find anything anywhere about this. Thank you ion advance.
Edit:
Restoring it doesn't free the space up at all. Even tried restoring my backups and the space remains full.

This is happening to me on my Nexus 4, no solution found yet
Same problem
I'm currently having this problem and used the SD Maid app and it says the exact same thing. Did anyone ever find a solution?
Only thing that worked was formatting the internal memory. A restore won't do it, must be a fill format. Feels great to have the space back.
that's because of the previous firmware's data saved on your phones. just perform a full emmc(only internal memory) wipe.
The answer is in my signature. No need to wipe anything

No it didn't. If you deleted eveything on your internal sdcard you did not do what I said in my thread

I was trying to port a ROM to my phone, but I can't get the SD card to mount properly.
It DOES mount but in a weird way.
The SD card shows up in Settings>Storage but it is divided up between internal storage and SD card.

The 32gb sd card is showing up as internal storage while the files on it are coming up under SD card. And as you can see, there is no option to unmount or format it but a greyed out option to mount it.
And if I take it out and put it back in, it doesn't mount even in this way until I restart the phone.
Apps like ROM Manager/Camera say that the SD Card is not mounted while apps like gallery and apollo can read my images and music off of it.
Could somebody please tell me what could be wrong and how could I possibly fix it.
Bump.
Please someone give some clue. I am also experiencing simillar problem while porting for my phone

Except I can't even access the settings>storage because it FCs.
And when I plug in the phone to my computer, it doesn't give me connection options. It just charges.
Any help?
What worked for me was to put the 'storage_list.xml' file from the old framework-res.apk (BASE) to the new framework-res.apk (PORT).
What worked for me was leaving the ports vold.fstab there

Problem with Storage
Do you have now the permanent fix with this problem?
i tried both the storage_list_xml and leaving the vold their.
but none works for me, I can't still change the default write disk to internal storage, and the size of the internal is not correct.
4gb is the built in memory but it says 16gb when porting roms.
thank you in advanced.
sd card not detected
I ported rom to my device...
The prob i m getting is that of 0 mb internal storage and no exterior sd card is shown
Neither gallery nor file manager is showing any thing.
I did everything lyk storage list replacement
Vold.stab replacement
But nothing worked
As i click storage option in sd card mobile reboots
Both the storage r shown in recovery
But not through usb or in device
Plz help me out dev....
Here's the deal.
Today I woke up to my phone charging by the night... but it downcharged to 15% of batterry. I reboot it and find out that my SD card showed up info of being "empty". The minitool partition wizard on a PC shows me that info:

no no, the memory card is 8GB not 32MB.
How to recover the partitions? Also, the SD card has been partitioned for use with app2sd programs with this tut: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning, because my phone (HTC Explorer "Pico") has a very small amount of internal memory. The rom was stock though.
Of course I could re-format it, but I don't want to, because the data stored there was very special to me. I want to recover it.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
I had that same problem a while back. I unmounted the SD Card and put it in another phone and it still said the same. So I soft reset my first phone, put the SD Card back in, and all was good.

But the card couldn't be recognized on a Linux, on a DMDE, SD Formatter, HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool, and primary on a TestDisk and on a GParted, and one big nothing was achieved.... You say that if I just soft reset the android phone, everything will be back to normal? Did you had the exactly same problem? You know, I need to clarify things before I do something that could destroy entirely my data.
I didn't have the exact problem just something similar and a soft reset (which will do no harm) worked for me. If the SD card can't be read any other ways then I don't know anything else other than formating the SD card.
