[Resolved] [Q] apps not installing onto a2sd

Hi, i've recently installed the Oxygen V2 RC7 rom onto my HTC Desire. I've installed the Rom Manager app and have used that to create a partition to allow for apps to install onto my sd card.
However when I install apps, it appears that it still stores onto my internal memory. At the moment when I go into Titanium Backup it states that my internal memory only has 64.2mb free (down from 154mb) and SD card (a2sd) has 452mb free (down from 480mb).
I've tried googling but I can't seem to find any solutions. I've also tried reflashing the rom again but nothing changed.
If someone could point me in the right direction and to what I may have done wrong, or if i've missed something, it would be highly appreciated! a2sd was one of the main reasons I rooted, so it's a bummer it's not working atm!
Thanks in advance!

Need to wipe phone and start again...

Hi guys, I need to wipe my phone, I'm wanting to start from a blank due to battery issues so need to remove apps from the SD card too (moved loads of apps to SD recently, I don't have a separate partition though) [don't want to lose photos/data]
What's the best way to do this?
I'm rooted and using stock ROM (10d)
Wanting to do this in my dinner hour so if anyone can help before 2PM (UK) it would be appreciated.

[Completed] Factory Reset = Internal SD Card problem

Hey everyone!
After searching xda and reading through all the suggested threads I did not find help. Maby I just do not understand. Please give me a hint or forward me somewhere. So this is what I did.
In bootloader I accidently pushed the Factory Reset. With no warning the process started (yep, stupid me). Since there was no way to stop it, it all just happened. I booted the ROM (CM11) and it loaded OK, but the the whole internal memory (internal SD card) was wiped, so all apps that I moved there were gone, photos and music and ll was gone... Simply wiped internal SD Card and all the problems connected to it.
Now I dont really care about some photos and stuff (dropbox) but I can not get the internal SD Card working :/ I can not mount neither it via CM nor via TWRP (2.7.0.8) - HTC One S (ville) version. So it seemes it is just wiped. I know you should not wipe that and well I did not (at lease not willingly).
Could you guys help me what could I do? How to fix the memory?
I'm not sure what device you're using, so I have no links to post.
But, if you have a custom recovery and are rooted.....flashing a ROM should be all it takes to fix it.
Normally you can backup your phone via HTC backup app with one mail account. You can restore your data's, photos etc..

[Q] Galaxy S4 (rooted) - Out of Internal Storage (...but I am not)

OK...I have a rooted Sprint Galaxy S4, and keep getting "Storage Space Running Out" message !
The thing though is, that I should have tons of internal storage left. I have flashed 3 different ROMs, and after a few days I get the message again. I can erase some apps to free up space, and half a day later same problem. I can't even get my apps on the phone, due to space issues and I also can't put them on the external SD (not with a specific APP to do it for me, nor can I move them manually, because the button is simply not there in the Storage or APPs SETTINGS menu).
Every time I flash a new ROM I clear data, dalvic....full factory reset....but end up with the same result!
Could someone please help out with a fix or solution with this very annoying problem.
P.S.: ....yes, I have searched tons on this forum and others, but nothing has worked for me yet!
....ANYONE ????
Hello
Looking at images you included it looks like apps & data takes only 1 GB space . There must be some junk in internal storage (may be old .asec files , thumbnails etc). Attach the screenshot of sd storage also . I should see where the data is stored in your current rom .

I flashed old Nandroid of SACS ROM 4.3....so it would be a stock rom screenshot now, and all you would see is that there is 18Gig memory left on the SD card!!!
I had to reflash Nandroid because I traveled and I wasn't getting a signal on my previous rom! I do now...but the problem remains, or actually is worse, but at least my phone works to make calls (no txt or email, because storage space is too low).
In either case, the SD storage has plenty of room, but I don't think that this was ever an issue!....I think it is the phone itself, but maybe there is a fix and I would prefer that over taking it in for many reasons!
Thanks for getting back to me though, let me know.....
Hi
Copy all required data from internal storage to sd card and format internal storage from custom recovery (CWM/mount/format emmc or TWRP/wipe/advanced/emmc) and reboot.
Hope it works !

I will try that tomorrow and will let you know....thx again!
i want you to try stock rom for few days and check
OK...!
I wiped everything again and did factory reset...
copied everything from internal storage to a computer...
formatted data and system (twice)
wiped again, formatted data and system again....
flashed a sprint stock rom
same problem.... I have 860MB of 16GB unused space available!!!!
when I check though, my system data (bare essentials of what is left) is only 348MB....there is 647MB used for apps....the rest is clean!!!
I am still not sure where all the storage went! Could my internal storage be corrupt or broke???
Thanks for the ideas, I will try anything!!!

Try flashing your stock rom again.
I told to format internal storage (emmc) and not data and system partitions. Try that
