How do I not run out of internal memory on a custom rom? - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Safestrap will only allow 3gb of memory to be allocated internally. General consensus is that there is no way to save apps or photos to the sd card instead of internally, resulting in a memory warning after a few days of use in a custom rom.

SD card works fine for me but what rom are you running?

All of them
I have batakang/CM 10.1/vitreous on various slots. I was planning on using Bata as a daily driver but it lasted less than a day after titanium backup restore of my app data which easily took up the 3gb limit. As far as I know there's no way to circumvent saving app data to internal storage.

The 3GB is for data, app storage. Your pictures should have no effect on the 3GB. I have well over 900 pics while on Fuzion and have no warnings whatsoever

The 3gb isn't being taken up by pictures. It's being taken up by apps and their data. That's the issue.

Try rom toolbox by jrummy. It will enable apps2sd, but it might be for rooted phones only.

I'm pretty sure that does not work on the Razr HD or the Razr Maxx HD.

Just moved some small apps to sd, like real calculator and imdb.
It works fine.

That's what I get for believing everything I read!
How did you move them? By uninstall/reinstall?
I don't get the 'move to sd card' option.

apps to sd card?

Why can't we move apps to eternal sd on Xoom ?
Because you don't need to. You have 28GB of storage space for apps and other files and I doubt you have more than 2GB of apps and need space for more.

I Have 10.75GB of apps. I'm a bit of an app hoarder.
Good thing you have 32gb internal storage then.

No rom space?

I have noticed that my Xoom it's running a Lil slow. I don't have more Rom space 0 MB this affect the performance of my Xoom? Thanks!!!

Which ROM?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
System ROM space doesn't affect performance at all. It's running slow is probably due to the fact you may have too much programs running in the background or cached. So you probably don't have enough RAM.

If he is using the newest EOS4 ROM, then I would suggest reverting to an older EOS3 ROM because some other people and I have had some lag issues with the current EOS4 builds. I'm chalking it up to being early nightlies.

I'm looking to erase unnecessary things from the system. I just erase Ringtones folder because I never use those and ending getting like 8MB free xD

I just moved some apps to SDcard and the system seems a little bit smooth

You could get rid of some videos android has, I believe it's in system/media/
Yeah it could be that as well, internal storage being bottlenecked due to the apps installed internally.

Found a way to move app data to sd card..

Worked for me, does this help anyone?

Doesn't work for need for speed mw. I'm guessing it will work on small apps or games that don't need additional files. Hopefully will save me a bit of space until I have an easy option for rooting.

I'll try it again but it moved all the data then when I launched it, I was being prompted to download all the data.

Didn't work for me either. Nfs wants to download again.

You will also have to start from scratch if you want to update the app in the market. Google only wants app content in the internal storage to avoid customer complaints due to swapping cards or using bad cards and wondering why the app vanished or does not work. It was also due to security. Not my words, but the Android team at their dev forums.

[Q] Camera ver 2.0.0.1 Storage

I installed the camera app from the Nexus 5 which is version 2.0.0.1. It saves the pictures to the internal storage instead of the SD card. Is there a way to switch it to saving to the SD card? Thanks!
Link to the app please?!

Thanks! Installed them, but Google Now's microphone stuff causes it to crash, haven't tried any other microphone stuff. I'll try to look into the camera options

That camera doesn't have the option to save to SD. If u want that feature and ur on AOSP use the modded cam from the apps and themes forum.
I am just using the Camera app from the droid life post. I am using it on my Verizon S3. I don't see any options to save it to an sd card.

Micro SD help?

So I'm having an issue with my 64 g micro SD in my sprint note 2. I can add things to it just fine, but after an hour or so it corrupts songs to 2 seconds and says "sorry, this audio file not supported". If I out folders in it, it empties them. If an app tries to add its data to it, it almost completely wipes it clean. It's formatted to fat32. I've never had problems with my 32 g SD card. I'm not certain of the brand, it just says "hc" on it. Any suggestions?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Something else weird to "note" here would be that whenever I download music and put it on the SD card, it does the music jack up, but if I copy it over and zip the music and leave the zip on my internal memory, it doesn't mess up.

Most likely your 64gb is bad. Especially if the 32gb worked with out problems.

I thought so. I figure it was just because it might be incompatible.
