I updated my phone to lollipop but miscellaneous files are taking up 4.2 GB. It looks like it are system files but 4 gb is too much for android. Can i clean some of this space up and how? I dont have root.
Thanks in anvance
Those are filesystem. In KitKat, the storage settings used to show only the 4 Gb you can use. In Lollipop, it shows all the 8 Gb, but you still can use only 4.
But what part of the system is taking so much? I cant imagine this because the update was 700 MB

No, you can't and you don't want to (your system would brake)

is this the link for your game:

* Installs to SD by default
so i think the problem is in the app, not your phone. do you have app2sd or link2sd installed? maybe that will solve your problem
thanks! yes i suppose in app, because i dont have installed link2sd or app2sd
the file size of the one you are trying to install should me less than your sc/cache
it should be xxmb/50mb

Just installed it on 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 and installed/runs without a hitch. Biggest game I had before that was MX Mayhem at 24MB
If you can not install it anyway you can copy the .apk to /system/app before flashing the rom so you skip the installation procedure.
Or.. on your current rom copy the apk to /data/app, set perms to rw r r and reboot...

Hi guys, so i ran out of storage on my mega 6.3 and found out it was the googleplay music data, so i just looked for a solution and ran over this:
watch?v=lYFw9bEAzM8
I am not allowed to put a link it in it, just put youtube . com infront of this
It's really easy and may help to put huge appdata like games and music pinned with google play on your SD Card. :good:
With a 64GB SD-Card i can install any game and put any data onto my phone now
(Sry for my english, I am from austria)
Hopefully I helped a little bit
Looks good but ill wait for the update maybe they put it in there to move apps to ext sd.

I don't have 9205 but have 9152 mega 5.8. By default the latest 4.2.2 already has transfer app to sd. Then to transfer game data I use gl to sd. Of course root is required. Folder mount also works but I have not tried it.
I also use folder mount but there is also an thread here that switches your internal and external sd.
Only problem is that after root i can not do OTA updates anymore.
But i think kies does work.

No, the CSC is only to help Samsung it doesn't do us any good. Keep away from XSA though as we (Aussie) have the bottom dock locked.
The question is app DATA you mean the latest fw can move the game data such as the obb folder? And without root?

I don't know about without root, my Rom has root as well but the official one should be the same.
I am not sure about the data, would that not move with the app? If you run from SD would it not store it on SD? I am not a gamer so I don't know but you could try it, the Rom is an update anyway.
Ok so you have not tried it with game or any app data separate from the app. If the app data is on aseparate folder like "obb" folderthen itwill not move. This is also true with music files and backup files of titanium backup for example.
Gl to sd is the app to use if the app data is separate from the app itself. But the TS does not want to root so I think there is no way yet. Previously on 4.1.2 there was external to internal app but does not work anymore on 4.2.2.
I do know Titanium is movable, you set the place to do backups in the settings.
Anyway there is another thread stating what I already said here- that the MJ2 does not move the obb folder/data only the app.

Surely where the app puts its data is down to the app not the rom?
Previously I used a phone wherein application installation can be installed on the externalsd by selection or by default. So a rom can be programmed to do so. I don't know how difficult will that be to code on the mega and similar phonesbecause of the emulated internal memory though.

It's impossible to move apps to SD card in in Galaxy S3. With every rom, stock or custom.
Not sure about apps but you can move app data.

Lol how can it be true ...
Man first partition is called data and its size is 2.0gb... when it is full you dont have any space for apps
Second one you mentioned is internal storage (aka sdcard0 ) and here you photos music and files are stored ... here you cant install apps only move some of then
