Cyanogenmod 9 Emmc Storage Issue

So lately I've noticed that my SD card is apparently full, like I'll get warning messages when downloading apps and stuff that the storage space is insufficient. But I know the overall storage space and I haven't used anywhere near that much. And I tried removing two files I didn't need through USB storage, and the space still didn't go up! I'm using cyanogenmod 9 on the Samsung galaxy exhibit 2 4G.

Its your internal storage not your SD card.

OK, but on app 2 SD it shows around 600 mb internal memory that is still usable. But when I go into what's on the SD card in that same app, it shows 0 free space which is also false. I know that the regular sdcard is the internal memory and ex-sd card or emmc is external. But still I dont have anything in there taking up that much space, app2sd shows that. And I've already dug around in root explorer and I couldn't find any massive data doing this.

Here, this is what app2sd is showing me.

OK so I think the problem is that since cyanogenmod doesn't use the regular external SD card folder, and uses the emmc folder instead, that's causing this.

[HELP PLEASE] Memory issues

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 !
Here's a screenshot of my memory usage. So weird!

Out of memory problem.

My s3 is showing out of memory now. I have a 32gbp card with lots of green space and also my internal memory still 400mb remaining. I thought the apps got installed in the phone memory. Am I wrong? Is this 400mb limit?? Pls help . I'm on stock os, non rooted.

Your not wrong, thats why your out of storage space. All your apps are stored on your phone and not on your external 32GB card.
400MBs is all the space you have left on your phone. Try moving some music and pictures onto your 32Gb SDcard.
I know it's low. But when 400mb is available, atleast an app of 5mb or 2mb should get installed na???

Your phone still require some memory to perform other stuff like cache. Try to move your media files to ext sdcard.

How to break the 200MB memory reserve?

HI can I get an hint about removing or cracking the low memory notifications and inhibit installing new apps whenever I drop under ~200MB of free phone's memory? I believe this must be breakable.. But how? Please don't suggest moving apps to SDcard as Xperia P has very limited storage for SDcard. Any working solution would be highly appreciated!

Of course you can but before that your phone must be rooted and after that these is two ways to go :
1st : install app2sd its a app but before tht you gonna need CWM tocbe flashed in your phone for backups
2: install s2e(app) to move all app to sd and leave the 200Mb free ,but you gonna need CWM too and for CWM you need to root your phone so look for root then CWM then install s2e or app2sd i will give you a link to a v8deo later if you want
Hit thanks if i was usefull to you

Thanks but as I already wrote that's what I can't do coz I'm out of space on SDcard too ((, so a solution to break the low space alerts or lower significantly the low memory level would be much more negotiable.

From what i know you cant add space but you could trick the phone by creating a ext partition to work like space but that from the sd card so you should buy a new sd card someone else i dont know sorry

That's not possible I don't have SDcard slot ( please a workaround how to cheat the phone it must think there's more memory that actually is so it continues working properly even if I go under 200MB.

Sorry that impossible you cant do that

Hi,
I did try the swapping process in order to get extended memory. But, in canvas hd i found out that there is another partition called Phone Storage which is not effected even by the swapping of the other two memories.
So my question here is can we swap or increase the phone storage memory with external sd card? Also i would like to understand the memory distribution of Micromax Canvas HD, in order to find a way to increase the phone storage area. Also, i will be googling for these doubts but any help from here would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Aditya
