[Q] Usable memory and storage after CM install? - TouchPad General

On a 32 GB Touchpad how much app installation space do you have after installing CM7? It would be nice to have room for my android apps and maybe some music and movies on the internal drive. How is the 32 GB divided up after CM7? I don't have a touchpad yet but thought I would ask. How much usable space for WebOs also?

I'm assuming right around 28gb.
I know I'm left with 12gb on my 16gb to. I know I've seen other users with 16s claiming 12, so just assume you'll lose bout 4 gigs

Many thanks Joker. If one were so inclined is there a way to totally nuke WebOs and have just Android on the Touch Pad?

Many people asked this question before, the answer is that you can try do it yourself cause CM team supports the dual-boot way (check the cmtouchpad FAQ for answers).

I was pretty sure I wasn't the only one but what to type in the search bar. Anyway it seems that WebOs will not take too much space and looks like a cool OS to play around with and learn about. Thanks.

[Q] Not enough space on sdcard

Ok guys, I have a small problem.
I have lots of games on the sdcard and all together they are huge, like 11gb (especially the gameloft ones), so I only have like 300mb left on sdcard.
On the other side, I also have the external_sd where I have the videos and music etc, which has like 15GB free, but if I move the folder of games there, they won't start. Any advice on how could I move them on the external_sd?
Sorry of this may sound a little silly, but I can't figure it out how to make a little more room on the sdcard.
Thanks!
I suggest you buy a 3DS or a PSP... jeezus... 11gb available ROM and you filled it with games? Good on ya bud lol... however, you'd have to get someone to build a full rom that changes the mount paths on the SD and external SD. However, as specific as that kind of build might be, very unlikely.

After a long period on my Desire with its tiny tiny tiny internal space, o felt the need abuse my free space, and as a dedicated gamer, guess what lol.
Well, luckily I found a solution around the forums here, I will test it tomorrow, hopefully it will work. I'm on the phone now, but i will also point you to the link if anyone else is having problems with internal space lol. And yes, I love gaming on my phone.

Ok, here is the solution, it works on our SGS2 as well, moved like 5 gb from my gameloft games. That's quite nice!

Will we ever have a Touchpad running just Android?

Is possible to just have the Touchpad running Android only?
Or will it always be a dual boot type of thing WebOS & Android?
It's already running Android courtesy of Cyanogen with their excellent port that's currently in an Alpha 2.1 release. It is a dual boot and I would think that's the way it's going to stay, so people have a choice, and there's always the ability to remove Android if something happens to the Touchpad,
you can do it right now. Its just incredibly stupid being that android is still buggy.

thank you captain obvious, you did in fact not answer his question at all. I also would like to remove webos ASAP.
Plus, for nostalgic reasons, why get rid of webOS?
Because it takes up precious storage space on us unfortunate 16gig owners, specially since it has no expansion ability on our wonderful wonderful device. Personally i haven't even booted into webos once since cm alpha came out.

The CM team has said that it will stay dual boot as they like WebOS. That might change come ICS, though.

I kinda do. The general ui idea is kind of nice, but the implementation of pretty much everything is awful. Eventually I am gonna want WebOS purged from the Touchpad completely and only have ICS on here.
As a response to thread title: that's the plan. As soon as HP replaces my tablet with one that isn't defective. The more I know about hardware inside these, the more I like them. I think they got a lot of potential down the road if they receive some much needed attention from a good team of developers.
Not to be a wet blanket here but under webos, you have a 50gb box.net account for cloud storage. Using dropbox under cm7 you have 5gb additional storage plus the option to purchase more. Even with the 16gb limitation of most of the TP's out there, you still have storage options so the question of webos taking up too much space does not fly. There are good features to webos and I think the devs realize that. I still use webos for most of my business related work and use cm7 for playtime. I have been using cm7 for quite some time and am very comfortable with the system. When we have a stable build, then the option to remove webos might be valid but until then, what we have is an alpha build ported onto a device with a stable OS installed. Just my 2 cents........
Sent from my HP Touchpad using Tapatalk
I have both on my device, if I were forced to choose, I'd remove CM before I removed WebOS.
The app support is the only reason I put it on, the interface and true multitasking nature of WebOS make it superior on a tablet for my needs.
Of course I do have a thunderbolt for my android fix needs.
I think the work the CM team is doing is absolutely great...and it's much appreciated.
But WebOS has been solid, great battery and without issues for my use.

Storage Question

Hey, so right now I'm currently using a galaxy nexus and thinking about switching back to the Evo, but one thing that I hate is how HTC partitions the storage. I love how on the nexus and gsiii your storage space is shared between apps, and the sdcard. Is there anyway to do that on the Evo, rather than having the 2GB app space, and 9 GB sdcard. I played with the vold.fstab file before but couldn't do too much, other then switching mounting points.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
lol so I guess not.
Nothing that we, as a forum, are aware of. The only thing that we can do is swap mount points like you said (make your SD card your "internal memory" and have apps store there) but there's no (current) way of re-partitioning the storage room.
Apps usually pretty small, and you can move most of them to the 9GB partition. I don't think there is much danger of running out of space even with the 2GB partition. Are you actually worried about running out of space for apps?

Haha, no, I actually had the Evo LTE for about a month and even after downloading millions of apps, I still had 1 Gig left. I recently traded it for a Galaxy Nexus, which I noticed how the app space was formatted. However, when I guess when you break it down, it just comes down to having 16gb vs 32gb internal storage space. Lol, I don't know, I'm thinking about switching back the Evo, I wanted to try something different for a little while because all my android phones been HTC phones. I think the software on the Galaxy Nexus, along with development is the bomb, yet the camera and battery life sucks compared to the Evo, and no kickstand . Sorry, I digress lol.

I agree it would be nice if the app and data partitions are unified like on the Nexus 7, but in reality, it's not really a problem for 99.9% of the EvoLTE users.

Should I sell my touchpad and buy the Nexus 7?

I have a touchpad 32gb and have CM9 on it with nightly build. ANdroid on it is not smooth at all and i could care less about webos. I am not seing any new update on this device, do you guys think, it'd be a good idea to sell it and buy a nexus 7 instead?

Here's my answer to the same question, on another thread : Personally, I wouldn't, but that's me.
If that's what you want, go for it.
I like the ability to change from webos to android, but then I really like webOS."
Since you don't like webOS, and aren't satisfied with the android experience on the TP, then I would say 'go for it'.
My android runs well, and I find webos an excellent os, it just lacks the apps android has.
What are the benefits of moving from a CM9 device with a working flash browser and large internal storage to a 8 or 16 gig Nexus 7.
For me there is no killer app or feature that justifies the need to move. Having tried JB I'm really not that fussed.
Yes, development has slowed but CM9 is more than adequate on the Touchpad. I would wait for the next Android OS upgrade and the next nice bit of kit to be released.

The quad core processor on the n7 goes a long way, as does the "built for android" aspect. Them there's jelly bean, and the higher resolution display.. The list goes on and on. I'm considering doing the same thing. My One X has a tegra 3 chip like the nexus 7 and provides a much better android experience.

personally i cant stand a smaller screen. the one on the touchpad is as small as i could tolerate. if you do a lot of traveling the 32gb could come in useful if you want to store larger files/more files etc.

To be honest storage is THE ONLY reason that has kept me from doing that yet. If google had a 299 for 32gb id be gone already. DOnt know why they dont even have that already
You guys crack me up, talking like storage space and screen size are the only factors in choosing a tablet. Our touchpad only gets used for web/forum browsing, etc. when our livingroom laptop is in use, so I couldn't care less how much it has. We've got phones, computers, media center, etc. for media...don't you? What the heck are you storing on that thing that needs so much space?

It comes down to personal preference!
I came from a og galaxy tab. I was really glad about the larger screen. I also have the 32 GB version.
Sure its only got cm9, I would like a more functional jelly bean ROM, but as it stands there isn't anything wrong with it.
Tbh, I think the touchpad holds up well even against the honeycomb tablets. And from that respect, the nexus 7 is only a "one gen" ahead of the touchpad.
I won't give up mine, mostly cause I love the touchstone charger, and its not like the touchpad was a bad deal to start with. I would however change to a nexus 10 if that ever gets made.

Depends on what you are doing with the touchpad.
If you need a tablet with a long battery life -> change to the Nexus 7
If you need a small, light weight tablet -> change
If you want play the newest games with bombastic graphic -> change
If you want to be up-to-date with your Android Version, even if you dont know what the difference to the previous version is -> change
If you want to make Skype Calls with a working camera -> change
Maybe 1-2 more Points.
If you are using your TouchPad just at home to surf the web, read mails and check the weather, like I do, than stay with the TouchPad. Even if the development died finally, CM9 like we have it now, and the hardware of the Touchpad, will be more than enough for the next 1-3 years.
The only thing that could force me to change would be a Nexus 7 7" or 10" with 3G for less than 300€.
i don't think there is still a lot of people want a used touchpad, considering that a new 32 gb playbook is 100 dollars now
You might hold off shortly to see what happens with Openmobile. If it comes out this month as expected the best of both worlds will come together.

Multitasking is not s3's cup of tea.

Ok. I am a s3 user for last month. But disappointed on s3 multitasking capabilities. Seriously If u r playing a basic game like angry birds and if u got a call in middle after finishing call the game reload s itself. Wtf. My old lg optimus net with 512mb ram and arv6 800 mhz pro works good at these things. I was able to use uc browser, equilizer app, songs playing in background and also whats app same time on lg op net. But on s3 having quad 1gb ram it sucks. Some times it reloads equilizer app also that hardly takes 2 or 4 mb
I guess because sammy has loaded so much bloatware that leads to 650 or 700 mb ram always in use. What is the use of these specs then????? :banghead:

It's not due to the bloatware. It's actually a problem with ICS and jellybean. They just use more ram than the older versions of android. For example, my old galaxy s could multitask amazingly well on froyo 2.2.1 but not as well on gingerbread and worse on cm10. Similarly, your lg optimus was probably on froyo of gingerbread, which inherently use less ram. Even if you disabled all the s3's bloatware, you'd only get a minor increase in multitasking capabilities. In order to multitask well on ICS or jb, you'd need 2gb of ram. Hopefully, android 5.0 will optimise ram usage and make multitasking better on 1gb ram phones.

No, no; I wouldn't bash you for this. The multitasking issue is a big thing and has been present for a long time. For example, look at my review post and look at the list of negatives: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37700176&postcount=9061
Multitasking really, really sucks on the S3! Samsung have done an awful job.
I really hope Google can fix two major things on the next iteration of Android's OS;
1) Better RAM management (which would improve multitasking and load)
2) Giving us cloud storage for game data (it would be a huge help for those people who wipe or switch ROMs)
Hmmm really hoping that sammy will fix this annoying issue asap. I dnt want to root and install custome rom just nw. I can experiment with these things on my old lg. Its on jb cm 10 already but camera not working. But my s3 is new so will use it stock. Also afraid of sds.

Well no doubt multitasking sucks on s3. I guess it's not due to jelly bean. My friend's s2 works great on jelly bean and multitasking is great on it. I guess the problem is on software side of s3. 1gb ram its more than enough for handling phones like s3.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
This has been discussed plenty and you're right, it's one of the s3's biggest flaws. The only obvious solution is the only one you can't really do - add ram. That or, you know, hope samsung takes his head out of his ass and actually fixes this since it's rather shameful, but I won't be holding my breath.
But there are workarounds, even if not perfect:
- you can use a custom aosp based rom. There're plenty to chose from. Although i haven't tried how their memory management is better than stock's many people report it is. And they usually use much less ram too and that also helps. The bad side is, since samsung didn't really deliever on the sources they promissed, any aosp rom for the s3 isn't as optimized as it could be. This translates in worse battery life, somewhat more lag than expected, aparently worse camera (from what i heard) that stock stuff... Some people don't even notice other can't live with that - up to you.
- use swap. by installing a swap-enabled kernel you're able to multitask more. This isn't the same as adding ram although it's probably as close as it gets functionality wise. What you're doing is creating a file on either the internal or the external sd that will help with your poor ram managing.
You can get more info here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paging if you're ineterested how stuff works. There's also plenty of info on such kernels on the "original development" thread.
There are prices to be paid though, internal and external sd's are never as fast as ram, so you'll probably feel your phone slower overall, even more if you use the external sd which is known to be even slower than the internal sd (card class is a huge factor here since it determines how fast your card is at reading and writing).
Also, since your phone will be constantly writting/reading from sd you're also reducing it's life span. If your internal sd breaks down, you'll need a new phone since the internal sd can't be replaced. If it's the external sd you can just buy another one cheap.
I did try this with an 8Gb class 6 card and a 512Mb swap. Sure it multitasked like a boss but phone was much slower all around. There are reports from people saying they don't notice any slow downs with a class 10 card though. They're rather cheap so i'll give it a try one day.
- sell it and buy the 9305 with 2Gb of ram. Or wait for the new S4. Or, if you're tired of getting shafted by samsung, go for any other brand. To be honest that xperia Z is looking mighty fine lately...
Super nice info friend. Will try other kernel but not nw. Will wait and watch what sammy is gonna do to fix these in next updates??
So many issues wid this flagship droid. Sudden death, exynos abuse, heating issues........

Well, it sucks how the phone just kills, stops or breaks whatever you leave running either in background or when the screen turns off. And it's plainly annoying to see almost every app getting reopened after a while even if nothing significant happened. Since there's no working multitask I'd rather have what apple does for "multitasking". At least apps are reopened where they were left.
But I'm keeping it for a bit more. I guess I could sell it and get the 9305 for little more money but I'm waiting to see whatever new comes out. If nothing pleases me I can always get the 05 at any point later, probably cheaper too. There's a 4.2 rom from Samsung to the s3 just around the corner, and I'm aware this is wishful thinking but who knows...

2 pages and all of the mockery and nonsense flying all over the wall... You guys should sell your phone really, you lose couple hundreds dollar more and buy HTC or sth....save the b*tching
Solution: swap, lower the low Memory Killer value (original value is too high to keep app initial load faster, apps like system tuner or minfree manager will help), lock app logic (so that app doesn't get kill almost immediately when you use another app in between of a big app.
Reason why the galaxy s3 is so bad at multitasking is that to ensure users of less lags, less forgotten apps running in the background hogging the ram. Unfortunately android doesn't have a "pause in between" feature, but you chose it so find the d*mn mod and stop whining. I use AOSP and don't even say I defend samsung.... I just hate the nonsense...
Edit: Btw, titanium backup is only 6$ or so, buy it and freeze the crapwares if you don't use. Freeze, not uninstall so the next time you update your custom rom it won't reappear.

Not sure what is wrong with your phones
Alright, I have read a lot of threads about this issue, but it always amazes me. I am not sure what is up with your phones. I just did a quick test. I opened messaging to a certain message, opened dropbox to my camera uploads, opened xda to this thread, and opened two games (subway surf and hill climb racing). I am able to switch between them with no reloading, fairly quick goes right back to where I was. Checking my ram I am still at 706MB/832MB. After closing it all down I am at 466MB/832MB.
Not sure what I am doing differently. I am running wanamlite v5.5. I have not done anything else special.
I suggest looking a little closer at your phone. What have you done to it and what is taking your memory. Surely there is something(s) you don't really need sucking up your memory.
I know many people report this issue, but I think everyone has a different situation. I don't see how I have no issue and others do, must be some change on the users part that causes/prevents this problem.

I opened messaging to a certain message, opened dropbox to my camera uploads, opened xda to this thread, and opened two games (subway surf and hill climb racing). I am able to switch between them with no reloading, fairly quick goes right back to where I was. Checking my ram I am still at 706MB/832MB. After closing it all down I am at 466MB/832MB.
Not sure what I am doing differently. I am running wanamlite v5.5. I have not done anything else special.
I suggest looking a little closer at your phone. What have you done to it and what is taking your memory. Surely there is something(s) you don't really need sucking up your memory.
I know many people report this issue, but I think everyone has a different situation. I don't see how I have no issue and others do, must be some change on the users part that causes/prevents this problem.
