So i did something stupid by deleting a bunch of pictures that werent supposed to be deleted. now im trying to get them back. So i do what i always do when something like this happens, i google it. The best one i found was one on android-photo-recovery.com /tutorials/recover-deleted-photos-from-samsung-galaxy-s3.html#update. and it sounded great, EXCEPT that in the tutorial it shows both internal and external memory. i need the internal memory. so dispite rooting my s3, and now trying 3 different programs, i cannot get UMS on the internal memory. HELP!
I don't think you can get UMS for internal memory. The feature is not available yet for S3.

Unfortunatelly I did the same thing and there is nothing you can do, I have even contacted Samsung and they advised nothing can do, if it was external drive then we could
Afaik nobody has found a hacked to enable ums on internal memory.

I apologise if this a nooby question but I've searched and can't find anything. Is it possible to store the apps on the 16gb usb storage instead of device storage. I don't have a memory card cos i think the 16gb will be ample big enough.
Cheers

What do you mean? All your apps go on a different partition which is 2gb in size. I hope you are not talking about using apps2sd...

Oh rite thanks for clearing it up. Just on my old phone (n97) the device storage was different to the usb storage. If i use up more of the device will the phone run slower? Sorry for the questions just want to try and get the best out of the phone, thanks : )

well, the addiional 11GB of the internal memory is also mounted as "sdcard" (while the actual SD card looks like a standar folder on this partition called "external_sd"), but you won't be able to use it for applications via apps2sd... at least my stock rom doesn't allow this, that works only with the actual SD card.
Either way, the primary 2GB offers plenty of room except if you want to install the whole android market on it.
When I tried to install NavFree I got an error Not enough space.
I am trying to inastall an app (The Amazing Spiderman) and my phone keeps saying I don't have enough free space.
The problem is that my phone seems to be including my Ext SD card in my USB storage.
My USB storage is 11.49gb in total. In the Misc section it says that i'm using 12.47gb! (this is my external SD) and then is says I have 5.93 available at the bottom.
Somewhere my phone is getting very confused between my USB storage and my ext SD card.
Can somebady please help?
You need about 2GB of space for the game to install !

Hı guys and girls. I have been having a problem lately. A few days ago All my whatsapp images disappeared or maybe even deleted then today all my screenshots are gone. I'm a first time Android user and have no clue what's going on.
No one has used my phone and I am 100% sure I haven't accidently deleted anything.
Has this happened to anyone?
If you have no backup you can try to recover using a tool like RECUVA .

This happened to me too on my LG Optimus 2x with CM7.
All gallery images were gone except a few when I opened my gallery from the camera.
Anyways, managed to restore the images on the computer using some image undeleter or whatever. Haven't found any solution yet.
I'm waiting for a stable CM9 or CM10 release to flash my phone. Time to clean up.

Thanks for the replies. What are some good recovery apps? I searched for recuva in the play store but nothing came up. I also tried undelete app and that only does external sd cards.

Hmmm don't know about you but when I connect any of my devices to the computer with media device/usb storage option i get the internal storage mounted too. Maybe you should take a look at your settings.

When I connect my phone to pc via usb it shows my internal end external storage though I don't get your point. Is it meant to show both internal and external?

Is there a reason my phone doesnt give me the option to move an app to the Sd card?
I dont wanna fill up my internal space again, like I did on my last phone. But no apps have the "move to sd card" option.
How do I put apps on the external sd card??
Just got the phone two days ago. Im not rooted.
Verizon phone.

The ability to move apps to SD was removed in Jelly Bean by Google. Samsung has recognized this limitation and has developed a way to do just that. The Samsung fix is rolling out to the international variants first and hopefully soon to the various US ones.
Really? Thats lame. So there is no way to put my apps on the sd card? I have a lot of apps & have taken up almost half of the internal memory already.
So no way to do this at all?

The Samsung fix only moves the apk. App data is still internal.

Use the Folder Mount app to move data to your external SD card and create symlinks to the internal storage.

Hello i´m from germany so my english isn´t so good and i hope you understand my problem. Since a few days i can´t update apps because i become a error report which says no more space but i have 2 GB internal memory free?. 2 or 3 days later i can´t install new apps too. I have the stock rom 4.2.2 with root, TWRP and Hacker Kernel. I hope you can help me.. I also tried to install a custom rom but i don´t find a rom that is better then stock and at custom rom my wifi can´t be enabled.
Help...
Nobody have an idea?
Google Play is only supposed to prevent you from downloading apps when you have 200MB of internal storage or fewer. However, I've seen this same problem at other random numbers like 400MB. Unfortunately, I've never seen the problem as high as 1.4 GB.
Although you aren't supposed to have this problem, you can definitely try freeing up space and seeing if the problem persists. If you have 3GB of free internal space and you still cannot download apps, there is a problem with Play. If the problem goes away, I would recommend buying an SD card where you can keep most of your data, and you will still be able to update your apps.

I have already a sd card with 64 gb and at the galaxy s4 you cant move apps to sd. I use folder mount for the data of big games and my navi. I already tried to unistall apps. Time by time a app will install or update and i dont know why..

In your screenshot, it looks like 4.7GB is being taken up by media. If that is your internal SD, try moving the media to your 64GB SD. See if updates work then.

The only way to solve the problem you are having would be to isolate it. If you clear up some memory and apps start updating, you know that your phone has a limit of 2GB. In that case, always keep over 2GB free and try to move more data to SD. (I still don't understand how Whatsapp takes so much memory) If apps don't update after you clear the space, you know that Google Play isn't working the way its supposed to, and should probably contact support on their end.
Sorry I wasn't of too much help for you. Good luck!
