[Q] system memory problem

i flashed indroid 5.0 and upgraded it to 5.1 and then flashed fugumod ultra 2 days ago now when i backed up with titanium i wanted to change theme and it says i have to have at least 10 mb of system memory to change team so i go to titanium and i see this :
System ROM: 219 MB (10 mb free)
Internal: 202 MB (134 MB free)
Sd card: 1.36GB (330 Mb free)
Sd card(a2sd) 479MB (248 MB free)
how is my system rom only 10 mb free and is system rom system memory or i am wrong ?

That's because you are using custom rom.
You have 134 MB of free phone memory.
And your sdcard is partitioned.

if you want to increase system memory then by root exporer delete some un necessary things like memo...then you will get max.system memory...

/system is where you have the os apps installed. Try removing a few apps...like launchers and keyboards which you don't need. I use better keyboard and Go launcher Ex. I have integrated them to the system ROM and removed everything else(keyboards and launchers) as it is unnecessary for me.
/system memory being less is actually not an issue.

Link2SD Problem

Okay, so I have an HTC Explorer, which I rooted recently (Factory reset BEFORE rooting, so that everything is clean). Installed Link2SD on it with an external FAT32 second partition of 512 MB. Then I proceeded to install all my backed-up apps.
Now, the problem I am having, is that Link2SD would create links to all the existing apps(As well as Auto-Link is turned on) but The apps are still taking up space in Internal memory.
For example, say, I have 50 MB of free space and I install Titanium Backup, which is 5 MB, and then Link2SD will link it automatically, but I will still have 45 MB of space left in the internal memory :-/
Help please? I am using Stock HTC Explorer ROM.

I am also having this problem ... Have just tested with Zombiebooth App ...
The app is 30mb was on the SD card (APP2SD standard), moved back to internal it took up 30mb, and then LINK2SD it over to the EXT4 partiton on my sdcard .. it shows the memory space is still using 26mb internal .. WTF .. why is the app still using 26mb ? surely LINK2SD should move all 30mb over and just create a small link on the internal memory ??
EDIT: Just read FAQ's of LINK2SD ... some internal files of an app are still left behind on internal memory in the \data\data folder ...
Wonder if it is still possible to move/link these remaining files over too ? There must be a reason why they're left behind

you guys should try cronmod D2EXT+, here. It's work like a charm on my Galaxy Ace, before i had 180 Mb n after i used it my internal memory become 2 Gb. try it n you'll be amazed...

Or you can just use int2ext+ now. but thanks for the advice.

Who here has the lowest internal storage?

Hello Everybody
So now....
Who in here's CURRENT PHONE has the lowest internal storage ever?
Lets start, My internal storage is 190MB

OptimusLove, I love how you always have worst phone contests.
Mytouch Q is screwed up so I've rolled back to my flipside which has 12mb of internal storage after I update all system apps. About 70 mb if I uninstall updates and clear cache. It actually has 512 mb but its partitioned so stupidly (thanks MOTO). On CM 7 it actually ends up with 110 mb and I can use link2sd, but you get the idea...
As soon as I fix my mytouch q ill be up at about 1GB of storage, total 2GB but partitioned so user data is approx. 1GB. Exact is 950mb
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium

in vodafone ideos (u8150) the internal memory is 256mb but the free (for porting of cm10) with facebook app and whatsapp is 56mb
with link2sd it's possibile move the app dawlink on the sd but not of the system app. with this procedure the free memory is 60mb

[Q] N7000 displaying full memory and wrong total internal memory

Hi folks at XDA!
My name is Erich And I have a N7000 (first gen Galaxy Note).
I have it rooted and although it is a 16GB device, it is showing just 10.9 GB of internal memory when I plug it to the PC via USB.
But this is not the major problem. The major problem is that it is displaying full memory (2GB total) even after a factory reset and installing a just the super optimizer app.
I´ve tried to use odin with the 16GB .PIT file but it didn´t helped.
I´ve tried to format it to ext 4 with Phil-z CWM and I can´t boot it past CWM anymore. Later today, I´ll try to install the original ROM file from sammobile.
Can someone please help me mainly with the memory problem?
Thanks!

Does anyone have any ideas please?

go into settings > storage > normally you will get Internal phone storage at about 2 GB and Internal SD card at about 13.43 GB ( when it is having a 16 GB embedded SD card)
your 16 GB embedded SD card has many hidden partitions, so usable storage space will be reduced.
what you can do is copy all the contnts of your SD card to your PC and than format it by settings > storage> format to get back full space.
to learn more about storage look at My Storage ( link below)

Thanks man! This is what I get when I do as you told:
device memory
- total space: 1.97 GB
- apps: 402 MB
- Available space: 1.56 GB
USB Storage
- Total Space 11.08 GB
- Apps: 86.12 MB
- Images, videos: 1.53 MB
- Audio: 32 KB
- Other Files: 172 MB
- Available Space: 10.88 GB
Keep in mind that I did a factory reset this weekend and formated everything via PhilZ CWM.
The real problem with all this is that the avaiable ROM goes full with just few apps like Waze, WhatsApp, gApps and such. I used to install lots of apps with no problems, but now this space goes up real fast.
Anyway, I will play with it again after the format/ factory reset.
Thanks for the info. I´ll try to update the info as it goes.

And it happened again.
It was ok yesterday, with 1.5 GB free yesterday and today it is full. The last thing I've installed was any.do and any.do Cal. But those were about 5 days ago.
All the movable Apps are in the external SD
All pictures were deleted too.
All I've intalled is:
- Super optimizer;
- tinder
- swift key
- skype
- waze
- WhatsApp
Root apps:
- root checker
- Super User
- Super SU
- PhilZ CWM
So, again I ask again the good people at XDA:
Does anyone have any Idea of what's happening?
thanks in advance

I am still having this problem.
I can´t update any app because the ROM isn´t enough for the action. Can someone please help me?

What ROM are you using?, and also which recovery do you have?

Mysterious case of Insufficient Storage despite 5.08 GB of available space.

I'm using the Nobis NB09 tablet with Android 4.1.1. When attempting to download an app from the Google Play Store, I get Insufficient Storage error, despite 5.08 GB of available space and the app that I want to download is only 9.83 MB, so there is more than enough space to install it.
Available space reported in Storage:
Internal Storage
Available​66.24 MB​
Internal Storage
Available​5.01 GB​
Why is all this available space being ignored?
Why are there 2 sections for Internal Storage shown in Storage?

Thers this regular storage space and another space where you are supposed to install apps and you've seem to have hit the limit there . also an app that's only 10 MB mayoccupy much more after installation .(it need to store cache and all)
So you need to free space in the the first storage that has only 66 MB available .either delete some unwanted apps or move some apps to SD card or you can increase the limit for app installed space using Root access required apps.

After uninstalling updates for unneeded apps, storage is reporting 319 MB of free space, so much space was liberated.
The initial download size was 9.83 MB compared to 23.97 MB after installation. So it takes up 2.4x more space after installation.
Is there a way to resize the partitions as in changing the ratio of apps to regular storage?

You can make use of apps like link2sd but it requires root
