Hi, I'm not sure if this is specifically a Nexus question or a general Android question but I have both a Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 and have observed the same behaviour on both
Basically what's happening is when I delete stuff from the SDcard the free space seems to be allocated to the system partition WTF?!
Take a look at the screenshots I'm going to try a couple of things - one of the suggested things was clearing the data in the Google Services Framework data >> Settings - Apps - All - Google Services Framework - Clear Data - which freed up some of it but not all, the next thing from here for me would be to flash the factory images again and see what I start out with
Both devices are on CM10.1 if that helps, is anyone else is having the same issue??

Ok so this is my partition sizes now after flashing the factory images back onto my nexus 7. No where near 5GB anyone have any idea what's causing this?
Updated the main post with evidence that this isn't my imagination - something is moving the memory allocation to the system partition rather than the sdcard =/

I have a 7 inch tablet from a unknown brand thit i got on ebay for 65$.... with android 4.0.4, I did it Root with super one click
Then the Titanium backup wrote that busy Box is not installed so I used the application "busy box installer" and installed the BusyBox with smart install.
Then when I turned the device back on, it suddenly lit up like a new device without any application and settings are reset when I tried to install applications, he wrote that the available memory is low (the device is Quite empty) when I look at settings \ Internal Storage, total space includes 0.00b.
If somone could please be abel to explain to me what happened, and / or how to fix it?
If it was $65... it's possible you used all the internal storage and that it's not empty, but totally full. It might report a larger storage size, but simply be re-writing over information or just ran out while installing.
i did a factory data reset
1.i did a factory data reset end it didn't help nothing
2.its not thit the memory is full it simply writes that all of my memory is 0.00b

Can someone help? I own a Nexus 5. I rooted it, flashed Android Paranoid on it and use Nova Launcher (for customization purposes).
The thing is, since I've flashed android paranoid ROM on it, i've simply lost 3gb of space!!
I have 4.8 gb of free space and 7.8 gb occupied. BUT when I search the folders in the computer or use any space management apps, despite it will tell me I have 7.8gb occupied, it only shows 4.4gb in files (like music, pictures, apps).
I mean, I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE **** ARE THESE 3 GB! IT SIMPLY DISAPPEARED!! Also, I use nandroid and titanium backups. I thought it was nandroid's backup because it was about 2.8gb big, but the file simply isn't anywhere!!!
I know 3gb doesn't sound much, but it is 25% OF ALL MY NEXUS 5 USABLE MEMORY!!!
tl;dr : I can't find 3gb of occupied memory in my Nexus 5 with any app or computer.
Please, please, please, can someone help me???
Also, some screenshots to make it more clear.

The used space is about 8.08GB and free space is about 4.48GB. But then in this screenshot the size of whole SDCARD folder is just 6.36GB.
So, what's using the extra 1.4 GB and where is it residing?
Extra notes:
1. Recently I had to factory reset my phone and lost everything on it, and after I added back my files from laptop the space reported was correct. No ghost usage.
2. The thumbnails files in DCIM folder got huge and I deleted them to recover nearly 1.5GB, but I'm not sure if that change actually shows up.
Please help with any insight. Also, does your SDCARD folder and storage usage show such differences?
Internal storage isn't just /sdcard. Its shared with /data so /data/app, /data/data is included.

Good day to you
Guys I'm on Existenz rooted firmware for my Z3D6653.
I always hated the new google photos as it seems to limited compared to its previous version (Kitkat days).
I always prefer to install GooglePlus ver. 8.0.0.123464592-415899108.
Now this version has got all effects I needed:
Looks, image, drama, retrolux etc etc.
Issue:
It always keeps saying:
Downloading resources some editing tools unavailable.
or
Downloading editing tools it only happens once. Continue to download or wait for WiFi.

This is truly frustrating as this prompts comes every time I want to edit any image and its too much frustrating.
This is happening off late. I removed the app by clearing cache etc and re-installed but same thing happens. I even installed a version back and later but same issue.
It seems that the resources downloaded are stored only temporarily for that session and then clears out.
Can somebody provide a workaround so that the resources stays forever.
For this question, I suggest you post on General, not Android Development.
Because we thought you released new custom ROM!
This thread has nothing to do with Development...
Thread Moved.

Now do i have to format my phone for such stupid issues?
Update.
I also completely formatted my phone and wiped everything..data, ache, dalvik, and did factory reset and wiped internal memory too.
Still same issue.
Why is nobody able to answer this query?
Seems its the toughest query ever posted.
Do you think it could be something to do with the ROM? If you're willing to wipe your phone, maybe try installing a new ROM?
Also, have you ever experienced any problems with the sync before this time? Can you describe any significant actions leading up to the problem occuring?
Good Luck!
