Hello,
I own a LG P880 16GB and decided to flash it with a custom ROM. The stock version was JB 4.1.2 for Europe. I've tried AOSP Lollipop 5.1.1 and later Euphoria-OS 1.1. I use custom recovery called ClockworkMod Recovery. I've also installed gapps from Nano Modular Package.
Before the flashing I wiped all data and caches in recovery. I've also explicitly wiped /system and /data.
And here is the question. Why a 200MB ROM takes up about 9GB on /data partition? My storage manager says that I only have 3.5GB space available. It used to be a lot more (around 12GB).
Here is a screenshot of my storage manager: http://i.imgur.com/IPaz9W2.png
I suspect that it could be my old files from previous android installations but how did they survive the wiping? I can't access the files from my JB installation (though it seems they take up the space) but I can access some music and photos from AOSP even though I have Euphoria-OS now.
My second guess is that the Lolipop reserves some space for builtin apps but since I use a custom ROM they are not installed.
Thank you

That is because of ART runtime
On KK and lower you had dalvik runtime which make small dalvik cache per app, for about few mb or less, with ART that will be much more. Mine sugestion is to clean up rom of apps whih you don't use (system apps) and also don't instal anything what you will not use (if possible)
Thats it

After all it turned out to be what I thought... but still thanks for your time.
I don't know what kind of sorcery happened during the flash but here is what it looks like
Code:
/data
|_ some folder
|_ some folder
|_ /media
|_0 <--- why???
|_ folder from new rom
|_ folder from new rom
...
|_ folder from previous rom
|_ folder from previous rom
...
I found out about it after I've enabled root explorer in es file manager, without it the data folder was empty but occupied about 9GB.

Everything is normal, you must to know that per app ART cache is minimum about 10-15mb... Then if your device is samsung and if you use stock rom, there are about 300-400 apps (bloat) then calculate

Can someone with root access tell me how the tab is partitioned, and the sizes of those partitions? How much space is there for apps on the system? Is there a separate /data partition like on the SGS?
Thanks!
Please post Questions in the Q&A forum Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I would like to help, and but can't figure out where to see that.
From a terminal emulator or from within adb shell, you can type 'mount' and 'df' and paste the results here.. that should be enough

Hi all !
I've got a massive problem with my xperia y which I unlocked bootloader & root using transcendance kernel : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43516134&postcount=271
After rooted the mobile, wanted to install CM9 using CWM but after wipe data, I forgot to copy in sdcard my new rom & the gapps...arf !
So, I turned off the mobile to connect it to my computer using usb cable and it's not working !
When I turn on the mobile, I can see the freexperia icon, and it's starting almost well (apn is not working, my SIM card is not recognized...etc) so I have to fix it !
The mobile is recognized (can hear windows sound when I plug it) I've got the adb interface in my system settings. But i can't have access to the sdcard like before, it's not appeared in my computer window...
How can I fix it ?
Regards

Since are about to flash new rom anyways, you dont need to worry about your SIM not getting detected and stuff right now.
Code:
adb kill-server
adb devices
Your device should be listed. You already said it, but just in case.
Now see if your card is already mounted:
Code:
adb shell "df"
This command will list mounted partitions. You will get something like

If it doesnt, try
Code:
adb shell "cat /proc/mounts"
If your card is not mounted ( very less likely ) you will have to get your hands dirty with more commands. But I hope tats not the case.
Find where is your SD card is mounted. Usually its like /storage/sdcard1
Now that you know where your card is, simply push your zip file with adb
Code:
adb push file.zip /storage/sdcard1/
If you are on windows, use adb.exe.
Now you can boot into recovery and do whatever you want
Only one thing to say....thank you !
It worked fine !
I fixed my mobile and install cyanogenmod 9 on it.
I have the 16GB Galaxy S3 version and a 70GB music collection, so even with a 64GB sdcard, space is tight. After installing CM10.1, I ran a df command in the terminal and saw this:

I don't know much about the Android filesystem structure, but seems to me I could chop off at least a good gig from the /mnt and /system filesystems... Is it possible or recommended, and if so, how do I do it? I've Googled it but couldn't find a manual way of doing it and wanted an advice from the experts anyway. ^^
It's dangerous to mess with partition layouts. I'm not aware of anyone doing this on the S3. It's been done on other devices. For example, the HTC Desire, could be repartitioned with a custom bootloader (hboot).
I've never seen anyone discuss the possibility of this on an S3 yet.
Aw... Unnecessary flashing is something I don't wanna screw up with (bootloader in particular). :x
Thanks for the reply then.
Guess I'm waiting for the 128GB MicroSD...
Have a look in original android development. There's a thread in there. Sorry can't post links in xda app.

This is controlled by the kernel IIRC. Just have to be able to build one from source!

Hi there,
yesteday I wanted to update the build of my CM12 nightly by Archi. Since I was somewhat low on free space I decided to cleanup some old files before and did so. After that I copied the newest nightly to my phones sdcard and rebooted into recovery mode.
When trying to install the zip file I didnt see any files or folders on the sdcard. There only was a "Android" and "LOST.DIR" folder. Booting back into android (without installing or doing anything further) i noticed ALL of my sdcard data was simply gone. The external as well as the internal, everything is just deleted. No "SDCard Error" or something, it looks loke the ROM just decided to format it and use the then empty sdcard(s) again. How is such a thing even possible?!
I have recovered at least parts of the original content by using testdisk on my laptop, but still I really want to know how such a "desaster" can happen and ideally how to prevent it from happening again.

Before the sdcard was like 25G of the 29.3G used...
Your internal card still has data present but your external has clearly been formatted.
Either the card is faulty or something happened after you copied the .zip across, premature ejection?
I'm running stock NC5 with SafeStrap 3.72 installed and getting the oddest problem which presents as not enough space to write into the internal SD card (/storage/emulated/0). A bunch of apps start reporting that they have stopped and clearing cache is only a temporary fix. Multiple disk usage tools and commands (Settings->Storage, df, ES File Explorer, DIskUsage) all show gigabytes of free space on the internal memory, and yet, when this problem crops up, I can't do the simplest thing, e.g.,
> cd /storage/emulated/0
> echo x > xyz
(Error: not enough space. I forget the exact message.)
I'm a computer engineer, but not an Android developer, so I've researched and tried a bunch of things such as clearing Dalvik cache, using various commands in DU Speed Booster, etc. but every time it's just temporary.
I've concluded this isn't a space issue, at least not in the internal SD card. I'm guessing it's a space problem elsewhere that manifests itself for some reason as errors trying to write the internal SD card.
I'd be very grateful for some tips on where to look next. Thanks.

The exact error from above is:
