[Q] How to free space on internal memory of XT532 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Now the XT532 (taiwan version) can be rooted, I am interested to know what can be removed. On the internal memory, it states is has 160Mb available of which 95 is already used by the applications on the ROM. So I only have 65Mb available for new programs. I try to move as much as possible to the SD-card, but still i run into the limits very fast.
But how do I know what can be removed safely?
Any hints? Also, a total of 160Mb seems quite low for a phone which is listed as 500Mb ROM/ 500Mb RAM. How is that calculated? Is the other 340 all occupied by Android?

Hello ,
I have the XT530 had the very same problem.. first the best option is to install Titanium Backup ( its worth buying it) and then backing up all of your system applications.
Then you can atleast safely remove all applications like the Qik,RSS, weather, Connected Music Player, just make sure you dont remove any of the Account and Sync, Motoswitch, Camera, Phone, GPS , Bluetooth, SMS, Calendar, etc. be very careful when uninstalling system applications.
After this you should use Link2SD with partitioned SD card so that you can run all of your applications from the SD card and save internal Memory. check this guide >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254987
I would like to ask a favour We are trying to make a custom kernel for the XT530, XT531 and XT532 based on the XT532's original kernel that is why we would be very happy if you could please share a ROM dump of your phone.
This will also hopefully help us in porting ICS to our phones ..
Thank you !

Hey no im not really a developer this is my first Android phone and im just disappointed with the kind of support that this phone is getting so im working with other devs to try and get some custom roms and kernels for this phone . Yeah I too have uses link2sd to free up space have abt 100 apps and still 50 mb free !! ... abt titanium backup im not sure it seems to be working fine for me.
You could start a new thread and post a tut with screenshots it will be very helpful for others with the internal memory problem ... also if more ppl who have this phone show interest in it then we might get some developers support but right now we have to work amongst ourselves and see what we can do!

I'm very disappointed too with the kind of support my XT532 got. No custom roms/kernels. Nothing.
Would love to see anything for this phone.

[Q] Stupid question: Move appdata to extsd (directorybind / link2sd don't work!)

Hello everyone,
I've (CF) rooted my S3 only to move app data to my extSD card. The official stock firmware (JB 4.1.1) is still on it, and i would like to keep it that way (serves me good). I've tried directory bind and Link2SD.
Both of the apps don't work (or i'm to much of a noob to get it going)!
Directory bind just moves files from one location, but when i start the app, it gives me a error (in this case, tomtom).
Also the alternative management options in this app, dont give me tools to "bind".
Link2SD makes links (on the second partition of the ext.sd) but doesn't want to move the app data to the first partition of the ext.sd The error is "insufficient storage space", but there is over 27gb of (fat32) free space. The second extsd partition is 2gb of ext4.
Am I doing something wrong, or is the official stock FW just not up to the task?
Greetings, RedKingCrab
apps to ext sd
Ho Bro,
i have the same problem, but as i know this is some new bull**** in the System or maybe just on Samsung devices.
The only app wich is more ore less useful is the "GL to SD"..

Thanks for the tip!
It seems that some versions are not well supported yet. Maybe in a couple of monts it will. I'll try again later on, including GL to SD.
So i've unrooted my S3 allready, because rooting it gave me troubles installing manual apps!
If I manualy wanted to install a apk file, i got an error (not enough memory )

Did you manage to figure this out?
Were you creating both partitions as primary?
What app did you wind up using: Link2SD or GLtoSD?
cheers

Sorry bro, didn't get it to work on stock fw.
Because of time issues i haven't been able to figure this problem out. I've unrooted the phone and flashed back with original stock.
Maybe its the way you created your partitions.
Try this link if you ever decide to go back and experiment:

[Q] internal SD memory

i rooted my phone then flash cm9 about month ago before that my internal sd memory was enough for me as i have some episodes and movies on and still got 4-5 gbs but now its only have 2.3gb free then i notice that titanium backup folder is about 700 mb and cynogen mod folder is about 1.7 Gb i wnated to know do have to keep these folder or i can simply copy them in my laptop and delete them from my phone.
do they create a problem or any kind of instability for rom or phone ? wanted to know before doing something.

Yes both titanium backup and Clockworkmod folder(if it's named Cyanogenmod I am not sure what it is) both are backups, Clockworkmod folder contains your rom backups and titanium backup contains your app backup, You can safely copy them to your computer and use them when needed and so you can remove them from your phone for extra storage space .
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.
sorry yes foder name is Clockworkmod.. and thank u soo its mean removing them would not create any problem right. and why do i need my rom back (Clockworkmod folder) cm9 is working very fine
It was made by cm9 rom when first installing as a precaution.
If you are happy with your phone and don't believe you need it, you can erase it.
precaution for what?

If you tried out any other roms and failed or didn't like it you can easily return back to your cm9 rom If you created a backup in CWM, this is a very useful and important feature, CWM by default creates backup in Clockworkmod folder.
For example I installed a audio driver which was not very good as expected and after I removed it, the audio driver which I had before wasn't reverted and i virtually had no sound, because of a backup i had I just easily restored to my former situation before the driver installation, so in short its like a factory reset but along with the apps we installed.

[Q] LWW wt19i need help

Hi
I'm not sure where to post this question so I'll post it here. I'm sorry if I'm not posting on a right place.
I recently got LWW wt19i and I'm deeply in love with the phone. The only thing I can't stand is memory! So, I need to root the phone. I read a lot of tutorials but now I'm scared of bricking it! What are the chances for me to do that?
And if anyone can tell me what is the safest way for me to do it? Because I really can't afford to buy another one.
I have:
Android 4.0.4
build number - 4.1.B.0.587
I will appreciate any advice! Thank you very much. )))
If you carefully follow this tutorial here, you will be able to root your ICS WT19i. Don't miss a step mate.
Thank you very much! I'm gonna try this one you gave me.
Well you can't just brick your device by rooting unless you change some system file is not meant to be changed, and even then you can recover your device by flashing stock firmware.

When I newly brought my phone I was able to like tracks on fb via walkman. But now I am not available to like tracks. Though my walkman player is showing that I have liked tracked there is no such status on my fb profile.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem

I rooted the phone. But now I have another problem. :/
I did this so I can move apps from internal memory to sd. I instald link2sd, make 2 partitions did everything and it's working. I moved all apps to sd, but when I check internal memory it's still almost full!
It shows that I have 312mb used and only 108mb free... It was the same before rooting and moving apps.
Am I doing something wrong or it is not possible to make more space in internal memory?

that's because much of the space is taken by the default apps which come pre installed in the phone........ i would recommend you to unlock the bootloader of your phone and install a custom rom........ you can unlock the bootloader by using "se bootloader unlock relock tool "
and btw there is no way you can permanently brick your phone unless you actually hit your phone to the ground hard and make it a brick
I'll try that
Thank you for the advice.

[Q] My questions about android

Hi, I got myself an android phone 5 days ago and i want to learn how to use it properly so i search everything about androids phone and i think this is the best site among other sites to post this question.
1)Transferring SD partition
At first, i didn't know what is root and after learning it, i rooted my phone cause it required in order to increase my memory. I recently bought i new one which is 32GB and i already partition it(using minitool partition wizard) and i was wondering how to transfer all my installed data , phone data and my previous SD to my new one. If i simply copy paste it how about my installed app on my phone? will it cause my app to stop working? if i use titanium back up,can you show me step by step how to use it.
2)Rom manager or Goomanager (custom ROM)
I heard a lot of people saying "Do not use it","too dangerous,too risky","might brick your phone" (i don't even get it, you'll just have to follow the instruction or procedure right?)
-stock Rom and custom Rom
what so different about them? (i know for the fact that custom Rom updates quickly)but i need more information.
-what makes you want to install custom Rom, is it worth it?
-custom Rom can save battery life,make it faster,can play heavy games etc... but HOW? is that mean stock Rom drains more battery( my phone cant even survive one night), cant play heavy game or makes you lag?
-what would happen to my stock rom if i install custom rom?
-if i installed custom rom, will it cause my phone any problems? like app stop working?
-will it use up my ram or rom memory?
-why bother change another custom rom if you'll just use the popular ones?
-What else can you do on custom rom?
3) Clockworkmod recovery and Titanium back up
-Whats the different about them?
They say clockworkmod is like cloning your phone when you back up
They say Titanium back up all apps and data is like the same as cloning your phone too right or not? so whats the difference?
what should i use?
when backing up to install new custom rom, what should i choose? they say if you using titanium back up might cause some serious problem.
4)Recommend or important app
what should i install to improve my phone? like cleaner,battery save (there many kinds, i want to know which is the best)
5) Any advice for new android user
Kindly answer at least one of my noob questions that is easily to understand.
THANK YOU in advance.
wow... you have so many doubts... hahaha
Ok, here we go:
root concept is a little difficult to understand (and to explain) to anybody that never used Linux before. To put it simple, root means that you have administrator privileges, so you can do anything you desire (even break your phone very easily ).
I dunno if a plain copy can works with the ETX partition, but you can do this: Move your apps to your phone again, disable Link2SD, put your new SD, enable Link2SD and move all to the EXT partition.
If I misunderstood this, and you don't have partitioned your actual SD, forget that I said before. Copy all from the old SD to the new one, there aren't problems at all.
I don't recommend to use Titanium Backup if you're installing a completely different ROM, since it can cause problems (if you're reinstalling your actual ROM, is OK to use it).
Custom ROM advantages:
quick updates, as you said.
lightweight, only few apps will be installed (without the bunch of crap that carriers or manufacturers usually add).
faster than stock, mostly cases.
Many features that stock ROM doesn't have (depends of ROM and the developer).
You should choose your ROM wisely, since not all ROMs are enough stable and can cause weird problems (as forced closes, slow down the phone, random reboots...). If you're unsure, try the popular ones and choose one.
Titanium backup doesn't make a clone of your phone, only the apps and its data. As I said before, I don't recommend to use it if you're moving to another ROM (you can try to install the app as usual, and only restore its data using Titanium Backup, it's better than restore app+data).
Recovery, in the other hand, can make a full backup (even the EXT partition is saved), so this is the right way to backup when you're installing a new ROM.
You will not need anything if you choose a good ROM
The usual: search, read, search again, and understand before do anything
I hope I didn't leave something unanswered, let me know if so

wow... you have so many doubts... hahaha - got tired of iphone 5 so i switch to samsung galaxy since its new, ive got to be careful.
what ways can can your phone be brick? so that i could avoid it.
I don't recommend to use Titanium Backup if you're installing a completely different ROM, since it can cause problems (if you're reinstalling your actual ROM, is OK to use it). what do you mean by "if you're reinstalling your actual ROM, is OK to use it"? are you saying if i want to revert it back to stock rom?
can you explain more clearly about question no.3 i still didn't get it.
lightweight, only few apps will be installed (without the bunch of crap that carriers or manufacturers usually add) - can you explain it like giving me examples? what examples of crap usually add? if i really did installed a custom rom, what are not from the stock are now on new rom. wont it effect my phone app data?
other said that if you installed a custom rom it might get brick.(even if the instruction followed carefully)
so what should i use to back up my phone in order to install custom rom and how? what would happen to my stock rom if i install custom rom?
how can i sure if the custom rom is suited for my phone? cyanogenmod the most popular custom rom, people said it can slow or cause problems too.
how much memory is required on installing custom rom.
should i use rom manager or goomanager?
-difference between clockworkmod recovery( and its functions) and Titanium Backup
When backing up consumes a lot of memory?
"Titanium backup doesn't make a clone of your phone, only the apps and its data" data-did you mean data from phone too? like contacts etc... if i use titanium backup and reset my phone, will it return to when i bought it? i was wondering if it will delete some icons like gallery icon youtube icon etc...because my phone is rooted.
if i use clockworkmod recovery, will it return to the way it is? some say dont use it cause it have a lot of problems.
"I dunno if a plain copy can works with the ETX partition, but you can do this: Move your apps to your phone again, disable Link2SD, put your new SD, enable Link2SD and move all to the EXT partition." so i should put all my installed app to my phone and then remove my sd card and copy all the files, cache to my new one. is that it?
Recommend or important app to improve my phone
my phone cant survive even a day. sometimes if i play games it sudden close itself and lag. if i install custom rom,can it solve my problems?

Can you tell name of your mobile?
And yes, ROMs tend to make phones better in performance
ClockworkMod backup usually takes 200-300 mb for high end ICS/JB devices

1. Transferring data to SD card is not only copy paste them. Not that simple.. U have to use an application that able to move data to SD safely without problem. If the data u wanted to move is like Pictures, Music, Video then it could be done by a simple copy paste.
2. Stock ROM and Custom ROM is two different things. Basically stock ROM is the one that officially has been tested its compatibility to phones which means it is safe to use it. While Custom ROMs are different. Not all of Custom ROMs are tested and u use it by ur own risk. It is true that by using custom ROM could improve ur phone because basically the Custom ROM was maded by other people that wanted to improve what Stock ROM didn't have. Custom ROM could harm ur phone if it is not used in a right way or that the ROM doesn't match ur phone.
3. Clockworkmod Recovery and Titanium backup are basically a similar app. They both meant to backup ur data. The thing is, clockwork use to backup ur ROM in case u want to change ur current ROM and maybe u want it back again. While Titanium usually used for backup ur phone's application and data such as apps, ur phone setting, ur contacts, etc.
4. I have some apps that I can suggests to u as a basic apps for rooted users.
- ROM toolbox Pro. It help u to improve ur ROM in working.
- Terminal emulator. It help to put command on ur phone if u want to order ur phone to run some settings. Simply it is like MsDos in Windows.
- Link2SD. Help u to organize apps if u need to move some apps that cannot be moved manually from ur setting (like ur stock apps, Twitter, Facebook, etc)
- (optional) Root explorer. Help u to manage data in ur phone or SD and change their permissions.

1. Move your installed apps by using link2sd, or u can also move it by using ROM toolbox. only the installed apps that u thinks u should move. for Video, Music, Pictures, etc. u can move them by a simple 'cut' 'paste' method.
3. Yup, remember to backup all ur data first in Titanium before u download n install new ROM..

Free space on android phone

Hi guys I need help managing the free space on a Blu Studio Selfie 2 phone (Android 6.0).
Yesterday a had a massive update (19 apps auto update) and today Whatsapp and Poweramp are having force close every few minutes.
I rooted the phone a while back and installed Apps2SD so in theory all my downloaded apps are on a second partition on the SD (5 GB partition of a 32 GB SD card), but day after day I see how my free space is reduced. Now I understand that with every app update I'm gonna lost space because apps grow in size while the internal space of my phone is static, but I just don't understand the way Blu managed the android filesystem.
When I connect my phone to a PC I see 30 MB left, but depending on what folder I browse I see diffent free space.
Why is this happening and more important, how do I free internal space so I can avoid apps from not getting enough free space to run?
Can I delete folders or files on the internal folders from my phone to free space?, if so, wich ones?
My last phone before this one was a Sonty Ericsson Xperia Play and I never had this sort of problems... It's SO frustrating...
Thanks in advance.

Now I understand that with every app update I'm gonna lost space because apps grow in size while the internal space of my phone is static, but I just don't understand the way Blu managed the android filesystem.
When I connect my phone to a PC I see 30 MB left, but depending on what folder I browse I see diffent free space.
Why is this happening and more important, how do I free internal space so I can avoid apps from not getting enough free space to run?
Can I delete folders or files on the internal folders from my phone to free space?, if so, wich ones?
My last phone before this one was a Sonty Ericsson Xperia Play and I never had this sort of problems... It's SO frustrating...
Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
Since you rooted your phone use titanium backup pro or modded version, install it on the phone and then remove all the bloatware, such as google play music and other things that if you dont want, before that I think it's better that just incase if something happens backup the whole rom. And after you backed-up just reset the phone to factory settings and then install the app I told you and then remove the bloatware so you'll have more space.
Thank you

Hi there,
I've never experienced this type of problem, if possible why don't you try and install the whole firmware manually. Try and format the whole device then flash the firmware. Since this is an MTK MediaTek Device, please take extra precautions as MediaTek running devices tends to BRICK when flashing the right ROM for some reason. So Backup your phone FIRST then flash the phone.
There might be a chance that something is corrupted in the firmware, so flashing your device might work or might not.

Please DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH TO FIND THE RIGHT FIRMWARE FOR YOUR PHONE, YOU CAN FIND TUTORIALS ON YOUTUBE.
