Storage problem - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Having a bit of a storage problem here. Phone is stating that I'm 75% full but I have barely any apps (100 apps including system apps) and nothing stored in internal sd. I've. Been flip flopping between aosp, cm and stock roms. Does cm or aosp roms store data on internal storage separately.?

It's definitely some cm or other rom folders, dig into folders that start with a "."

Should that Android folder be there? Looks like apks are in a data folder. Is this a cm folder?

Did you do nandroid backups? By cm folder I mean like some folder made by cm or some other rom...

Be sure to check your cache usage. Some apps are caching like there's no tomorrow.

I'm on an nandroid stock back up right now. I'm just wondering if CyanogenMod or AOSP makes a separate folder for file system that I'm missing.

How many nandroid backups have you got? a nandroid of stock could run to 3 or 4 GB

That's exactly what I meant.
My nandroid done like two days ago, with nothing except apps and like whatsapp media, was ~6GB...
They are of course stored in the clockworkmod folder, he just should delete some of them (namely the older ones).
Or hey, just store the backups on the sd card, he has a 128GB one, I say there's lots of space there...

All my nandroids are on the 128gb card. There is none on the internal.

Okay I went into CWM and looked into SD card and saw 3 nandroids. I went and rebooted but I can't find it anywhere. Where is it ?. I deleted 2 in cwm and I'm back up to over 7 gigabytes of storage.. I can see them in CWM but I can't see them in root explorer?
Sent from my XL39h using Tapatalk

They simply should be in the clockworkmod folder, and nowhere else. Unless you made your backup with philz or TWRP, and you specifically changed the destination of the backup on internal SD...

Root Explorer has a search function (the magnifying glass icon) but be prepared to wait a while as it searches every file.

Why don't you download "file manager( explorer )" from rhythm software on play store.....it have a function to search media storage and see what specific folder that have consume the most of your storage....it will search internal and external....its faster this way....the most will list first...why don't give it a try....

Help with cm9 nightly

Have cm9 nightly flashed and running like a dream except for I can not read anything from my external SD card. Have tried search but only have access through app for a while and struggling to find anything of help. Think it may be something to do with the format of the card but not sure . And would really like to save what I already have on it. Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Where do you have it mounted?
Settings > Storage > Menu-Button > Configuration
Do you have the box ticked there?
Other than that, what file-system do you use for your SD card? It had to be FAT32.
Not 100% sure what format the card is in . Has been working on ics and miui without problem.
It was checked and external SD was greyed out .
Don't know if this will give any clues
Thanks
Kieron
Have just unchecked use external SD for apps and rebooted could read card fine but internal storage was then greyed out .
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I have this option checked. While it's not the way Google likes it, many app-developers do and therefore I'd mix things up if I used it the other way round.
Now to your problem.
Try this:
Use a file explorer which can go into the system root ("/").
Open the "mnt" folder.
Inside it there are folders called "emmc" and "sdcard".
Depending on whether you've checked the option or not, one is the internal and one the external memory.
Tell me if it works.
Have done as u requested and both folders are present.

How did you try to access the external sdcard?
Because you have access to it as you can see in the file explorer.
Can't access it with gallery or if I were to restore my contacts from there. Should it be greyed out when looking at settings/ storage
Thanks

Have managed to get photos to show in galley now by using dev tools/ media provider to scan SD card. But anything else remains hidden unless through root explorer.

Looks fine; just like over here.
You can tell that your external sdcard is mounted because it tells you its size and how much space is left.
It's normal that it's greyed out, because the external sdcard doesn't have this fine-grained stats.
So the gallery is working fine now, but you said that you don't have access to it.
So what's the deal? Does some app make problems? (Tell me which one)
Or can't you listen to music, watch videos, etc....?
So by what means you "can't access" it?
To be honest its more the fact I wanted things to work perfect as I am loving cm9 .
An example would be if I wanted to import my backed up contacts from the SD card it would not find any that has been saved on the external SD card but can find ones on internal SD .
Plus I was missing some galleries (found now after media scan).
I think what made it seem worse is that when running ics miui I never had such issues.
But had to go back to cm .
Thanks

Ahhh.
This clears everything up. I now understand what issues you had with the transition.
In short:
It's not that cm has problems, but one of the things Samsung ****ed up.
Explanation:
Look, on Samsung's roms (and therefore also on MIUI v4) the external sdcard is mounted at "/mnt/external_sdcard" (or something like this - don't remember exactly anymore) and the internal memory is mounted at "/mnt/sdcard".
This is NOT the way it's supposed to be! The Android-standard is like this:
Internal at "/mnt/emmc"
External sdcard at "/mnt/sdcard"
This caused a whole lot of issues in the past, like cwm mixing up the internal and external memory.
However, some apps have "/mnt/sdcard = internal" hardcoded and therefore break the standard.
Thank you for that Samsung.
As a bypass the option I told you about was introduced. When it's checked, it breaks the standard by mounting the internal memory at "/mnt/sdcard" and the external at "/mnt/emmc". This avoid apps putting their data on the external memory if they're poorly coded.
As you can see it's very confusing and an absolutely unnecessary bull**** Samsung has pulled off there.
The easiest solution:
Do it just like me. Connect the device to a computer and copy everything in two different folders. Then format the external and internal memory.
After that copy your files where you want them to be manually.
Yeah, it probably takes some time, but it's something that you do once only.
That way I merged my photographs and backups that were split and btw also got rid of unnecessary files.
All makes a bit more sense now. Still new to the s2 coming from the Sony x10. But learning slowly with the help of xda and its members yet again. And all seems to easy to make a simple mistake. But succeeded so for with flashing boot loader and roms.
Will sit and sort some files out and then do as you have suggested and format and sort.
Many thanks for all your help and patients . And maybe one day I could return the favour
Thanks again

[Q] How do you recover stock/original applications prior on flashing cw9

Please bare with me since I am still learning about android and so my question is, how can I recover my applications from my tablet after I have rooted it. since the stock/original applications takes up 8 gigs of space of my internal memory. I just cannot seem to access/delete those 8 gigs??
I flashed cyanogen 9 to my SGT2.10.1 and it was successful, although I am stuck on trying to recover my applications from the partition internal memory. Of course I have done a variety of steps to recover them and some of the steps I took are:
1. I tried using the spk tool - I really do not know how to use it and I am having a hard time figuring it out
2. Trying to delete and reformat the internal memory - was not successful since it only erased of what I currently had on the rooted and partitioned memory, thus my original/stock application are still within the internal memory.
3. I tried using applications such PC36IMG-AmonRA-3.07-gnm.zip - I changed the name to PC36IMG but flashing it lead to installation fail/aborted
4. I tried recovering them with titanium back up - but the application couldn't see my original/stock applications
5. Also tried using Astro File manager - Same results as TBU
6. Deleting the files from my pc via usb- it does not give me an option to reformat it
Any suggestions? this is the final step that I need to complete to finally enjoy my retarded galaxy tab 2
U can't run system apps from stock ROM on a custom rom . some of them probably can . Titanium backup backs up only user apps like games and stuff unless u say it to do it specifically .
So if u could get the apk of the app u are looking for , try moving it to system/app with permissions rw-r--r-- . Reboot .
If it works , buy me a beer . Or else , well do nothing. !

Everyone keep mentioning "move it to system/app" I really wish I could but I have looked through the folder many times and the 8gig of apps are not showing up. They must be hidden in another folder or partitioned. Another thing I want to add to that statement is I do not even know how to do it? I apologize if I am sounding like a total nub but what is permissions rw-r-r? I do not understand. Please guide me through because I cannot fully enjoy the quality of my device if 8 out 13 gigs is being used up with me having any access and ability to delete them. Pretty please
I also use titanuim back up, and the apps are not showing as well since prior to flashing the rom I never backed it up. I would not just buy u a beer if you could help me out on this but ill buy a KEG! from ebay, amazon, name ur online beer catalogue websites DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Go to data/app. That's where the other apps are stored. And system apps don't occupy 8Gb of space! I believe the /system partition is given only 500 mb of space.!
It must be something else that's taking so much space. If you made Nandroid backups, it will be around 2GB each. Or if you have too many files.
And about the permissions, if you put an app in /system, you will have to set right permissions.
To get an idea of it, just go to system/app and just long press on any app, hit permissions, you should see the permissions like the one in pic.
And you will have to reboot for the changes to apply.

What didn't work? Moving app to system/app? After setting permissions, you should reboot.

I can't move them since I can't see the apps prior to flashing cm 9 or give them permission coz its just not showing up. This applications are BEFORE flashing cm 9 which is taking a lot of my memory. I have rebooted numerous times even formatting it as well

[Q]Where are my Cwm backups saving? 'emulated' vs '0' vs 'legacy'

Hello,
I own a gti9300 with paranoid android 3.15 stock kernel 4.2.2. I did some nandroid backups using cwm (latest) and through file manager I cannot find them?
They do show up in recovery when I choose the option to restore. But where are they in the file manager.
Also I understand the 2 different folders of emulated(legacy and 0) versus sdcard is due to the multiuser feature in 4.2. By default where does everything save? Like whenever I need to delete something, where do I delete it from? All the locations?
Thank you!

they are in /sdcard/clockworkmod
but you can't get to a higher level than /sdcard/0/ from CM10.1, so you can't access them from the ROM

With a root explorer go to: /data/media
This is where you will find all your internal sd files that were there before you flashed CyanogenMod 10.1, also in the folder Clockworkmod you will find your Nandroid backup(s). Because of this Multiuser feauture of Android 4.2.2 this weird partitioning happens. If you would flash a 4.1.2 based ROM then you will have your old internal sd partition back.

So the default place where everything gets saved I cannot access because it's not available in cm10.1?
Is it the same way in aokp roms?
One more question please, if I downgrade from 4.2.2 to 4.1.2 omega rom (stock Samsung variation), will it brick my phone since I am downgrading?

EVerything that you will save when you are using CyanogenMod (Or any 4.2.2 based ROM) will be saved in /storage/sdcard0 or /storage/emulated/0/ which is your internal SD Card when using CyanogenMod 10.1
Your external sd card is like before /storage/sdcard1
When you are using CWM Recovery it uses the old partitioning which means all your Nandroid Backups will be saved in /data/media
And you will NOT brick your phone if you revert to a older version of Android. Just make sure to save all data that you have saved so far on Cyanogenmod because I don`t know if it will be saved or not, since when you decide to go back to Android 4.1.2 then you will have your old partitioning back which means your internal sd card will be not in /data/media anymore but in : /storage/sdcard0
Thank you sir. I owe you my gratitude

Thanks a million -

Where is all my memory?!?

This may be a stupid question or this is how my memory truly is.
I am running CleanRom. I know the OS uses around 8gb from the get go, but not sure where the rest of my 8gb went. Not sure what "Miscellaneous files" are. When I click that I have about 6.5Gb labeled as "System memory". I don't use as much apps and save all my music/pictures/videos to my SD card as you can tell from their memory. All in all, I am using roughly 1.5gb that I can be accounted for. Am I missing the memo somewhere or am I doing something wrong? Another thing the shaded grey area indicates my available memory, but 700mb is not half of the 16mg lol. Thanks in advance.

You have to hit sdcard0 then press the phone icon in the top left.
Edit:
Odd it wont show the emulated folder after accessing shell. Shows up in root explorer. And thats where I lost space before. I guess you could always boot into cwm and use the delete option and if theres backups still there they would show that way.

HTC Backup -- does this actually restore anything?

I just applied an RUU to my phone to reset back to 4.3 stock in order to get the 4.2.2 update. I had HTC Backup making daily backups, but it doesn't do anything. Shouldn't it restore my apps and settings like my Google device do?

yes it works
did you download it from play store and run it ?
It's already on my phone in Settings --> Backup & Reset. I set it up to backup when I first got my phone using HTC account, and I see the last backup dates change to confirm it's doing a daily backups. But I don't see how to restore the last backup?
After Googling this, I think I should be getting an option to restore from backup when I first boot my newly stocked phone, but instead, I get that AT&T Getting Started interface with no option to restore.

But after backing up, the restore option is still grayed out. And I don't find any new folder in either my Google Drive or Dropbox accounts. I tried doing backups to both but I don't find anything added to the cloud storage. Weird, guess I'll just be stuck w/Titanium.

I'm still wondering why this doesn't work. As you can see in the screenshot below, the backup completed. But the option to restore is still greyed out. And I can't find any folders in DropBox or Google Drive w/backup contents.

All I can tell you is that I installed it from the play store ran it and it restored all my settings... I was on InsertCoin before the RUU and OTA update
