Evening Devs,
Iam running CM12 on Samsung N7000.
(A)The problem is that the apps are consuming space (i know lollipop enables ART runtime by default and it consumes more space) than ever and iam running out of space. I can hardly install 10 apps on my phone right now. Can anyone let me know how to repartition the internal SD so that i can move all the apks and apps private files to it thereby freeing internal memory using Link2SD plus.
request to help me with step by step instructions please...
(B) The homescreen freezes most of the times when i return and pops up to select TREBUCHET again. any idea what's wrong?
Model: N7000 Samsung
OS:CM12
Version:5.0.2
Mod version: 12-20150317-UNOFFICIAL-n7000
Root:Yes
Thanks

Hello to everyone;
To start with I suppose I must introduce myself:
My name is Manu from México and I am a proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy Ace since three months ago.
During this time I had played with it and its stock ROM with 2.3.4 from carrier Telcel, I rooted it and removed bloatware from the carrier, the result was really nice; even thou after some apps the internal space run out, and therefore the responsiveness of my phone also got cluttered.
About a week ago or so I decided to go beyond and flashed "CyanogenMod 7.1-cooper-KANG-RC1 Android 2.3.7" so I tested it for a while and even thou I found many improvements, many bugs were unbearable for the phone use I’m used to; so I switched back to a Stock Rom and flashed "S5830SERKPO" with 2.3.5. and my regional modem.
In addition I did this process to Deodex + root "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118048&highlight=DEODEX” the result in my personal opinion is very good, but I’m back to the beginning. IM RUNNING OUT OF SPACE FOR INTERNAL STORAGE AND THE PHONE STARTS TO ACT LAGGY
I have read about s2e, link2sd and darktremor a2sd; where is require to partition your SD (which I already have also done with CMW at no avail) and I have finally ended up with a program called Install Manager 3.5.1 which promises to do move apps to SD (as far as they are executed locally from an .apk file and not market)
So... after this entire intro, and to avoid any flaming against me: I have read many many posts and have ended up overwhelmed and more confused.
¿Can someone please help me into the best way (in terms of stability and performance) to manage my apps to the SD card with a stock ROM?
(If possible a detailed explanation please, remember I have Stock "S5830SERKPO" with 2.3.5. and my regional modem)
Thanks a lot.
Also let me say I had read this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172684
But I get lost into "make sure the rom supports it" and therefore not sure if this applies to S5830SERKPO 2.3.5
Well, seems that my post is getting to much attention yet... still, I have an update; today during the course of the day, two times the phone screen turns off and it does not come back until I remove the battery.
The phone continues to work... (the radio still plays, calls continue, etc) just the screen turns off without any means to turn it on.
Hope someone can guide into how to find a better solution for my need.
Probably the easiest way to fix that is to install a ROM from the dev section (make sure it supports A2SD) Cyanogenmod is not official for our Ace, wich means lots of bugs, but other Customs Roms should be ok for you.
Create a ext4 and swap with CWM in your sd card (reboot into recovery, advanced, create sd partitions) Open the A2SD app and turn the swap on, move applications.
Hi friends!!
I switch from iPhone to a new Galaxy SIII last week and i'm happy because i'm back to do trip&trick on my smartphone to personalize it !!!! :laugh:
Now after 1 week in research and test i sucessfully:
- root my SIII
- partition, install and use an external SD as system storage for application using link2SD
but i understand now that link2SD not move private data that still use internal SD.
Now i would like balance SD usage and move al main app and games to external SD in order to upgrade and use SIII with any problem.
Now i ask you some suggestion and help me what i can do:
1. manualy, via terminal, move only private data to extSD and link it, but this will work? which tool you suggest me?
2. help me to discovery an application that do this for me
3. suggest me something that i don't know that can help me to use extSD as application storage
4. suggest me an alternative FW to use, now i use samsung origianl FW 4.1.1 but i'm not know what mean use a new FW, benefit,etc
I'm from italy, so please sorry for my english and use a easy english so i can understand
last point, can you link me some material to underswtand better custom firmware, i'm looking from google but many link and many pages, i don't know how to filter it.
Thanks again

Hai
i hve one samsung glaxy SIII, working in custom rom, with android verison 4.1.2 baseband I9300xxlh1 in KST region,
My problem is that, while i am trying to update my android version from 4.1 to 4.2 from my SD card using .zip file, it shows the error message " signature varification failed" and stops installation.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue. please
thanks in advance
Hi all,
[ I did a search but didn't find much, so please don't shoot me down. ]
I had moved some apps to external SD (mainly games and very big apps). After a long while, I upgraded my NeatROM firmware based on Android 4.1.2 to a newer version of NeatROM also based on Android 4.1.2 - without wipe (which is supported, I've always done that between NeatROM roms).
All went smooth and works fine, except that the apps on the external sd now appear orphaned. They show greyed out and can't be launched. I know I can reinstall them but I'd like to avoid that.
Is there any fix to make the OS recognize them? I presume some config files now point to the wrong location for those apps. I'd be grateful for some pointers.
Thanks in advance.

also,if you have made backups[via titanium or so] of those apps,just restore them.
Hi guys, it's my first post here and I apologize if I'm wrong place to write
I updated my LG G2 mini to Android 5.0.2 (stock with OTA) and unfortunately I noticed that now my system data occupies approximately 5 GB of memory (and my phone has 8GB of internal memory)
The problem now is that I have no more space to update all my applications, so I ask here if it was possible to eliminate something, or if it was necessary to install a ROM.
I notice that I've never done any kind of mod to the phone, so I am a complete novice .
I'd rather have still Android 5.0.2, but I would be fine also a modified ROM, also to reduce the use of space, battery and more.
Finally, I add that I still have one year warranty, and if it were possible I would like to preserve it, but if you say that applying a mod the phone will get better, then accept all your tips
A lot of thanks in advance and sorry again
Hello everyone
I have an old GS3 and time is starting to take it's toll on performance. Therefore I am thinking of rooting it to improve performance. (I ve already done pre rooting stuff to improve performance like disabling bloatware and turning off graphics from developer options).
The problem is I belong in the category, if you are not sure how to do it don't do it! So I want to be careful about it.
I am mot a multimedia heavy type of guy so half of my 8 Gb storage is free.
What I want to do is intstall CM11 (to upgrade from android 4.3 to 4.4.4) and afterwards add a 4 Gb SD card and use it as RAM.
I know I first have to start with backing up contacts and Data.
Then I plan on installing CM11 with the steps from that vidoe/guide:
How to install CyanogenMod 11 on Samsung Galaxy s3 - Papp Ferencz [Can't post URL]
1. Download snapshot: cm-11-20141115-SNAPSHOT-M12-i9300.zip (212.87 MB)
[A new snapshot just came up at CM11 site, cm-11-20150901-SNAPSHOT-XNG3CAO3G0-i9300.zip, I m thinking of using this instead.]
2. Google and download android 4.4.4 gapps
3. Copy the files on the internal memory.
4. Boot in recovery more: Home+Power+Volume_Up
5. Wipe Data/Factory reset
6. Wipe Cache partition
7. Go to Advanced mode and wipe Dalvik cache
8. Install zip -> Install from Sd card -> 0\ -> cm-11-…
9. And the gapps-kk-20140105-signed
Will this, to the best of your knowledge (I know there are no guarantees) do it right?
Then I plan to use an 4 GB class 10 (probably) SD card and use that guide
site androidpit /increase-phone-ram [can't post url]
[Scroll to the second section for details:
How to increase your RAM when you have root access
In this section we're going to explain how to increase your RAM with a rooted device. The trick involves creating a partition on your SD card, which will act as a secondary source of RAM. To do this, we will be using the ROEHSOFT RAM Expander (SWAP) app ... ] etc
Do you guys also know if this will work?
I m open to alternative implementations as well if you guys have tested something and are confident it will owrk on the I9300 int version.
Thanks a lot for your help
You should post this in q&a but if u want to install cm u don't need to root just flash cwm and install cm from there
Thanks, I ll repost at the Q&A section.
Also I don't want just to install CM but also increase RAM to boost performance and I need to be rooted for that I think.
