Hello, i am trying to install cm13 to my gt-i9100, but after installing cm13 i want to install opengapps but it say insufficient space for instalation, so i proceed with repartion, i partitioned system with 6 gb, and after reinstalled cm13 still i have insufficient space to isntall gapps.
So i started my phone without gapps and installed titanium backup an titanium i see 3 partitions, one is called stock rom that has 530 mb and few space, the next one is 5.97 gb and the thid one is 9 gb, can you help me with an advise about that stock rom partition?
How can i increase that space?
Thank you
That <>500mb space is the system partition. What you did was increase the data partition. Read THIS, and choose a pit file with a 1gb system such as 1gb_3gb or 1gb_4gb in the name.
Thank you, i will try today and reply.
first thing after repartitioned i tryed to install cm13 and opengapps and gives the same error that is not space, i entered in CWM in advanced and format system and after that i was able to install CM13 and opengapps mini.
Thank you very much for your help :good:

Hi all,

I've been using Simple2Ext on CM 7.0.3 eversince i installed CM 7.
I was using a 2GB sdcard,partitioned 1,8GB FAT32/ 256MB EXT3.
Yesterday i've bought a new 16GB sdcard and partitioned it 15GB FAT32/ 1GB EXT3.
I've copied all data of both partitions from the old card to the new one and most of my apps are still working.
However when i try to install an app from market the phone reboots and the install fails,this doesn't happen with every app.
I've already wiped the cache and dalvik-cache partitions but it didn't help.
I also tried to fix the permissions using rom managers "fix permissions".
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks!
Edit: I know it would be easy to disable s2e,clear the partition and restore a titanium backup but i can't do this cause titanium backup refuses to restore any backup since i've changed the sdcard.
It gives a parse error,and i still have to try to solve this. (didn't have the time)
Edit2: Nevermind,i've noticed Cyanogen 7.1 went from RC to stable so i flashed it,this solved my s2e and titanium backup problems.
I have some corrupt files on my internal memory,
first i tried to delete them from solid explorer but it cant
then i tried format usb storage and also format from cwm. it deleted all folders but except the corrupt files and the hidden folders so it is not a true full format.
I need to fully wipe the internal to get rid of these files, how do i do it?
You haven't mentioned whether you are rooted and/or running a cusROM or not. But to answer your question, flashing a firmware in Odin overwrites the phone partitions (afaik) and should format the affected partition.......
Edit....just seen you mentioned CWM....so I guess you are at least rooted....
So you have another option. In CWM go to mounts and storage....you'll find options to format various partitions....preload, cache, dalvic, data and eMMc if my memory serves me.....just remember to stay clear of any wiping if you are running ICS 4.0.4 and a basic (not included in a custom kernel) CWM. ....see eMMc brickbug....aka paperweight creator....

Hi, I have a similar problem with my phone : first a problem of dynamic langage with swiftkey, just after an error message about the database of root uninstaller, and then impossible to open the photo galery, with a message like "insuffisant memory space, etc..."
However there are 5Go of free space ....
So I run Avast and moved all important files from internal memory to the sdcard.
When I expected to move the backup files of MyBackup Root that the file manager looked like frozen. Impossible to move not to delete any file any more, and I can see plenty of corrupted files with very strange non alphabetic names inside the MyBackup Root directory.
I tried with no success :
- to delete all files in internal memory from a pc connected by usb, nor from terminal emulator, I get the message that it is read only (in su)
- to format from android parameter
- to reboot in recovery mode, then to format with CWM (v3.15)
- to perform a fsck_msdos
- to reboot in recovery mode, to run a e2feck
the fsck sees those corrupted files but cannot delete with error message like I/O Error
My Galaxy S2 works fine, except the internal memory that cannot be written.....
my questions is : How can a unfreeze my internal memory ?
Thanks.

Ok...sounds like you have a real problem there....
Now I'm not the most experienced Android user here, but to me, that sounds like a NAND read/write corruption (somebody correct me if I'm wrong)
My advice would be to read this thread thoroughly. ...

and maybe ask your question there, but don't do anything else to your phone until someone there can confirm or deny the accuracy of what I've suggested......

I wanted to be sure that a new flash with a partition will solve my problem.

how to repair the corrupted internal memory after pit partition?
Dear senior members
i am using S2 Gt-9100g. Recently i tried to re-partition the internal memory by pit file of 6-8 gb via Odin and CWM recovery installed via PDA,simultaneously. i got 6 gb internal space for apps. then with the help of custom CWM recovery i successfully flashed the cm13 ROM and gaaps pico zip, then i reboot the system then i found out that my internal memory is corrupted so i hastily tried to format from my phone. This is where i made the mistake... now my phone runs smoothly but no internal memory . I tried to repair the internal memory by CWM recovery to format the internal memory but it won't detect any. I know it is wrongly formatted but it is there!
please senior members, help to regain the internal memory.
Thank you

Format your internal sd or sdcard0 in "exFAT" format and try again, recommend use recovery TWRP or Isorec
Trying to install a ROM for the first time and I'm using Safe Strap. I try to install a ROM on slot 1 or any other ROM slot for that matter and it says I don't have enough space for my Data partition. How can I make more space? I tried wiping the internal storage using Safe Strap but it gives me an error. Any suggestions?

Try to use clean master to clean app and system cache,and put some big data app in the ext-sd,it's an intuitive app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard
for a rom you need at least 2 gb
Some rom will boot only in rom slot 1 with safe strap,(all cyanogen mod "CM 10..1" for exemple) read the developer info

I am having this same issue. I deleted a ton of apps and ran the cleaner and it is still showing that I am short on space. What else can I do? Getting very aggravated.

before flashing a rom, i made factory reset.
Did u try factory reset/wipe?
Yes, if you have a ton if pics, music, downloads, etc on your internal memory transfer it to micro sd. Stated above "For a rom you need at least 2 gigabytes" is mis leading,(if not referring to total partition size) as you are givn a choice of 1, 2 or 3 gig space. I have never used anything over 1gig, and never ran out if space/memory. Factory reset does not clean your phones storage.. I suggest manually deleting/ formatting for best results to get your space/memory back.

so I just tried Safestrap on my S4, says I have 12MB of space left. I just wiped my entire phone, and it's still at 12MB of space, before and after the wipe, am I missing something?
EDIT: I installed the ATT version of it by mistake, genius me
Same Problem here
I am having the same problem. I have deleted most apps. Deleted all pics & music, still not enough space to flash ROM. I am on XT912 RAZR Rooted.
have a look at this link
I had a similar problem until I found this link, I think I just used the top/first method as I had luckypatcher installed already.

hope it is a help to you
SafeStrap uses the space on your internal sdcard for creating slots.
Apart from the data, it creates two more partitions viz system and boot so the amount of free space required is (sizeOf) data + 900 MB.
So if you chose say 1GB for data, then you must have about 1.9 GB of free space on your internal sdcard.
Confirm before you try to create a slot.

No you can't change the stock system partitions.
This thread is for creating partitions on sdcard using a specific recovery. This is not universal.
Hi everyone, new to the forum and I hope that my (likely) simple question is easy to answer!
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2, that was running the stock ROM at 4.1.2. I rooted the phone using the Odin tool, which worked first time, and I then proceeded to use ClockWorkMod (latest version I think) to flash a custom 4.3 Rom to the device (after taking a backup of the EFS folder to SD Card and my PC).
That has worked perfectly. I am loving 4.3.
The issue I have is internal storage.
When I did the custom rom install, I did:-
Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Wipe Cache Partition
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Format System
I then installed the custom ROM and latest GApps and all is good.
What is curious, and I just cannot seem to explain, is that the internal storage when I was on the stock ROM, reported I have over 6GB free, and now that I have gone over to the custom ROM, I have around 2GB free.
For me, that seems strange that I have lost 4GB of internal storage just for this ROM update.
I had assumed that the Data/Factory Reset and Format System would clear out all the rubbish ready for a clean install of the Custom ROM - but that does not appear to be the case.
How do I go about resetting my device so that I can clear down the internal storage to the extent that I can regain the lost space?
Any help is really appreciated.
Mark.

I would say, try to establish if the rom had 4GB of extra data or not initially. How much bigger was the custom rom compared to the stock rom?
If you have busybox or TerminalIDE installed ( hope you have!) , try running "du -a / | sort -n -r | head -n 30" and see if you can find any particularly large files, or directories that seem extremely bloated and compare them to the stock rom.
What are you using to determine how much disk space you have free? Windows via usb? df via terminal?

Hello everyone.
I lost 8GB of internal storage after a bad flash. I tried installing a custom ROM but flashing got stuck for a few hours, so I powered off the phone.
After re-downloading the ROM and reinstalling in TWRP, my phone now only shows 24GB of internal storage, even in TWRP.
Wiping the phone (advanced wipe with everything checked, format Data or Factory Reset) didn't solve the problem. Neither did flashing an original Xiaomi fastboot ROM.
Any ideas what else I could try?

Same with me.
In a 32 gb model the 8 gb is used for internal partitioning. 3 gb for system files. 1 gb for cust partition (used by miui only which the dev was able to use for treble support) and the remaining 3 to 4 gb is being used by internal scripting and blob files. (The files used to run android in the first place, such as boot partition and other things)
Thank you.
I flashed Lineage 14.1 and my phone now shows 29 GB of internal storage.
