i think i saw what is eating my memory ... old games that for unknown reason still have files (400-1gb ) in internal memory ..its in Android/data folder .. can i delete entire folder? will take me a year to manualy verify each file

Yeah if its for old games that u don't have anymore, u can just delete the folders

why do you need a partition for a2sd?

Haha ive only had a rooted android for about 2months and you guys have taught me ALOT, but this is once thing that i do not know yet. sorry for the seriously noob question, but here it goes anyway...
What's the reason that we need a partition for a2sd? i just use titanium backup to force apps to the sd and it doesnt need a partition, so whats the reason the a2sd does?
With a2sd or link2sd the SD partition is used as an extension of internal cache, whereas linking apps basically stores app data in a file on the SD.

eventhough u force move ur apps to sd by titanium backup. some traces of it remains in internal memory. so ur int mem gradually gets filled up if u install more apps. also the apps that you move to sd takes time to open up and runs a lil bit laggy.
on the other hand,if u partition with ext. thia ext acts as additional int mem virtually and hence you can install more apps without sacrifying performamce

[Q] cant install certain files

Ok so i can install almost any app on the market except these 2 that i have tried . I cant intsall directory bind and gl to sd (root).
Just to be clear all other apps install fine , i have plenty of space but these 2 apps give me the insufficient space or out of space errors , i have wiped dalvik i have wiped all the cache , i have tried looking for the odex files in root explorer , tried restarting my phone but nothing helps.
Im on stock ics with root , i get the feeling like these apps ar blocked on my phone or something because i cant use the app2sd apps so i though ill just change the primary storage to my ext sd but its impossible because the apps that i need are not installing

[Q] device storage showing minus when trying to open gallery

My i9300 is nealy unusable. The first sign of trouble was a error message trying to open gallery on 4.1.2. I then flashed latest omegarom after wipeing everything didnt solve the problem just gives a better description.
"There is not enough space (-5371MB) in your device memory. Delete some files" In settings the internal storage has 5.36GB free. I have been trying out a few different roms over the last few days but have always full wiped.
Now a lot of my apps force close on launch. How can my internal storeage be showing to some apps as a minus but the system gets the correct free space. I did have a play around with ExtDs2InternalSd v5 but decided to to swap back.
Hope someone can help me..Thanx in advance..

Then this is your problem did you follow proper uninstall instructions for ExtDs2InternalSd v5 >> If you want to remove the mod with a file explorer with root ability, delete the file 11extsd2internalsd from etc/init.d folder <<
If that does not work you will need to flash new rom and full wipe..

Yes thats what I did when I decided to go back to internal memory and everything was ok at first. I have since flashed omega rom with a full wipe but same problem and all roms since. I have checked Inside the ect/initd folder and that file is gone.
Thanx for the help any other ideas?

Yes back up internal and external sd cards and format both..make sure you format any ext2 partitions on your external sd card with minitool partition wizard or equivalent formatting tool.

Internal memory almost full, no idea why

Hi, I have a s3 international version, rooted and cm11 on it. My internal memory is almost full and I can't seem to move apps to external sd card. Also, a few months ago I had 5 gigs of space left, now 900mb... Did a complete whipe and started all over again, but still 900mb free memory. Is there a way I can delete everything, maybe go back to stock an start all over?
Thanks
Camera, or game data files, or changing rom to rom
1.When you switch from rom to rom( like 4.1.2 to 4.2.2) it leaves the previous rom's files in an folder named '0'..
2. when you may put some pirated games, after wipe.. the folder( data files) still exist
3. well, have you been recording a lot of videos or took a lot of pics??
I did have a few '0' folders, but I deleted them al.
Could be a few app folder, but definitely not 4gigs.and I have maybe 50 photos on it and no films.
Would it be bad if I deleted everything on the internal sd?
I also have a folder storage/emulated/0 and storage/emulated/legacy. In both are the same files. Can I delete 1 of the 2 entirely?
Thanks for the fast reply btw

To be on your place I would install Root Manager from G.Play and carefully looked inside. In acc to result i would be acting next step. And probably you will find another 0 folder. ( personal experience)

Use any file explorer (ES file explorer has one) which has storage space analysis tools.
That'll help you to locate the folders which are using most of the space.
