[Q] internal memory size problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have rooted old phone with low internal storage and Link2SD installed.
The problem is, that even if I have almost all aplications linked (by Link2SD) to SD card, I've got low free space on internal storage.
I've executed "du -h -m -d 1" command to get sizes of all subfolders in "/data" folder (which I suppose is internal storage) and the results are in attached file.
Whole /data directory size is 297 MB.
/dalvik-cache + /sdext2 is 207 MB in total. Other folders' sizes are negligible.
My question is: Where is the difference of 297-207=90 MB?
Thanks for replies

help needed with physical partition size

I noticed that my TP has less total size than it used to be (it might be due to making 2 chroot partitions) (for the record i have the 16GB version).
So i opened lvm and typed the pvs command and saw that my current PSize is at 14.19GB and PFree is at 3.95GB. Im not really familiar with lvm i just saw there were some similar commands for physical (like the virtuals ones which people use to resize their logical partitions to reallocate the missing space after a cm-uninstall).
Anyway, what im asking is how to reallocate those 4 missing GBs, should i run "pvresize +90000 store"? will it affect my currently logical partitions?
This is how the lvscan looks like:

}
Thats a total of 10280MB

stupid《Q》storage

its all the preloaded apps that comes with it. root your phone and delete all the un needed crap.
sent from my quad turbo 1.5L GT-i9300
25Gb for data + 1.5GB for system partition + 1Gb for cache partition + 390Mb for dev partition + 20Mb for efs partiton (and maybe more partitons that I forgot...)
The 32Gb are not only for your data...

[Q] Low Memory Issues

Hey folks, Long time..
I am havin low memory issues inspite of the fact that i have a 500 MB partition on my sdcard. Below is the Memory Storage Info:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It clearly shows that i've got enough free space on the partition,i.e.,"/data/sdext2/"
As you see, "/data" and "/sdext2" are all empty !
I am wondering :
1) If the partition aint located in "/data/sdext2/", then whats the path for it ?
2) Why does it show low memory despite my external partition is free of space ?
Any help would be appreciated...
FYI, I am using Pranjal's Rom 4.0
Edit: I am on 500 MB ext4 partition on a 16 GB class 6 micro sd card .

Mounts2SD and EXT4-partition?

Hello XDA!
(Is this the right place for this question? Is this really "hacking" for example?)
Soo , im trying to use the Mounts 2SD app to utilize a EXT4 partition on my 32 GB sdcard. The first partition is a FAT32 (this is more windows friendly?) and the second one is the EXT4 partition of about 12GB.
In the Mounts 2SD app I have installed “Startup Script” (6.0.20).

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But on "External" it says "Not Mounted". Hmm, should it be mounted there?
And when i reboot the phone the /data/ partitions still doesn't seems to be mounted in the EXT4-partition on the SDcard. Someone who know how i could do to use the EXT4-partition on the SDcard?
And if someone know it would be interesting to know exactly what partitions that one usally move to the EXT4-partiton on the SDcard. (The /cache/ and the "dalvik" for example?)

Android with more that 60 partitions and 50gb use internal memory!!! Pls help!

After having done a procedure to undo my Le Max 2 X829 (due to infinite loop) I only have 9GB of internal space available (the device has 64GB of internal memory)
Dai I noticed that the internal memory has more than 60 partitions and one of them (sda9) is more than 56gb!
Please help me ... I can install the ROMs and TWRP but there is no internal space on the device to be able to use it.
Here is the photo of #adb shell> cat /proc /partitions

Try a factory reset if you have a working rom now. Worked for me when I unbricked my Le Max with EDL using a developer rom.
When it first booted it only showed 9GB of internal memory.
Ok , an older thread; I had the same issue. I found the solution in reformatting the data with TWRP.
