Hello people.
I need help. After i install a customzied ROM (first time ^^) I noticed that my phone have full storage like you seen on attach file.
So i installed Root Explorer but all folders have normal size. I thinks there are older files but I cant see that.
If I plug in phone to pc only show recents files.

I'm having an issue managing files with both root explorer and windows 7 explorer.
When I create or copy files/folders in root explorer, windows explorer will not see the new or moved files. However, I can copy files and folders from my Windows drives to the xoom, and they'll show up from root explorer fine.
I checked the permissons of files created in root explorer vs files created in windows, and they're both the same. I also made sure I have the latest motorola usb drivers and whatnot.
It seems that MTP mode makes windows see the folders differently and not read the entire file structure.. or something. I had created files and folders from root explorer on my droid x a while back and never had this problem with usb mass storage mode.
Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
At this time USB Mass Storage Mode is not possible on the Xoom (Honeycomb file structure issue IIRC).
yeah, I know mass storage mode is not possible.. I'm wondering why MTP doesn't allow windows to see changes made from within the xoom and if there's a way around it.
I have the same problem.
I use my Xoom to annotade PDF skripts from university, when I want to copy them back to the PC, i see an old version of the files, that shouldn't be there anymore.
The "last edited date" is the day I copied the files onto the Xoom, and the file size is some kb smaller than that the file manager on the xoom shows
It's like a time machine ... but not in a good way
I sometimes see the same issue. I don't know why it happens or how to fix it but as a workaround, rebooting the Xoom seems to let Explorer pickup the proper files.
Previously I was using cm9, after that I upgraded to cm10. I wiped data, wiped cache in cwm recovery.
After that, I tried xfering some files over to my tab, it looked like this

From this picture, it can be seen that my internal memory has files and is not empty
yet when I enter the folder

Completely empty, cant be seen.
Even after trying to copy and paste files in, only the new files appear, can no longer find my old files.
Can anybody help me? same thing for the SD card. SD card only detected when I removed and plugged in with external usb card reader to my pc.
(I can't post images yet, hopefully someone with >10 posts can hotlink it for me).
Really urgent because I have to use it for my lecture notes in school.
If you want a workaround on this issue, you can use a cloud storage app. For example, dropbox (go to my signature and click the dropbox logo) can allow you to transfer files without even plugging your Xoom into your computer
Managed to solve the issue by doing a complete memory wipe on my internal hard disk but backing up important files before hand w dropbox as the files are still accessible with astro.
No idea how this happened though.
It's called MTP. Hahahaha in other words windows sucks.
Really what happens is the file list directory isn't updated so it doesn't show up on explorer. I don't even use explorer, I just use ADB push or pull.
I installed some games a while back including Badland and Fifa14 and I manually moved the .obb files to my Nexus using a pc which were about 1.8gb combined, then after a while I tried to remove the files manually through the USB connection throughout my pc, the files were gone but it did not affect the storage, I tried everything but I couldn't get my storage back.. I know formatting would solve my problem but I really don't want it to get to that, any help would be appreciated.
@eytch_1 try to restart, see on android with es file explorer or the file still exist, find the trash folder and delete that one. It is maybe hidden but its named like .trash 1000 i believe but its an trash folder i can't say much more since i dont have an phone anymore for 2 months now. Or you must find some app to find big and large files or some trash remover app.
I also had the same problem as you had on my s2 i had my wth moment when that happend and i needed to remove an folder named something with trash and i had my storage back i hope it also works for you.
Also try running fstrim command through elevated terminal emulator. Also use disk usage to see where the space is being used up.

Hi Guys,
I have a really strange problem with my storage on my nexus 5.
Im running latest cm12.1 nightly.
This problem started as i wanted to install some bigger apps on my device.(like Hotman go, ormini motor racing). Both of these app need permission to write on external storage.
So during the installtion both of these apps fail to install. Okay anyways i can live without some games on my device.
Some minutes ago I tried to load some music on my device via mtp. my laptop and pc both regonise the storage and I can browse the whole directory. So ..as i starting to copy any data the explorer frezzes and does not copy any of the data.(not important if 2mb or 250mb)
Even creating new folder or renaming them leads to a frezz of the current explorer. I wanted to see the storage options built in . now the odd part. if i scroll down the two options to mount or delete the storage are not clickable. Is this normal??
What i tried:
-chainfires app for mounting/dismounting storage ---> app force closes
-fix permission---> nothing
-viewing if storage is mounted via TWRP ---> data is mounted
Does anyone experienced this problem?!
greetings
/e add the storage screen
Have you tried doing a factory reset?
I've got Cyanogenmod 12.1 on a Galaxy S2 i9100 and the storage is a pain in the arse to be honest. I know the switch from FAT32 to EXT4 with JB or KK was supposed to be better for security, but for access it is abysmal. I can't copy large folders to the internal SD or else half way through the process Windows will tell me the device has been disconnected, I also can't install large games like Football Manager 2015 or Sims Freeplay because after they have downloaded their zip/rar and try to extract it they just crash (even when the phone is not plugged in), and if I copy the downloaded archive to my PC and extract it there it will crash when I try to copy the extracted folder back to the Android/data/ folder.
Is there a fix for this? I had no problems using FAT32 for many years, but now I have an internal storage that seems to choose when it wants to be visible to my computer and will decide to unmount(?) when something is being copied to or extracted on to it.

Nobody have any ideas? I've googled like mad but can't find this problem anywhere. It has to be ext4-related though because apps and games have never had a problem uncompressing their data until after 4.4
This is annoying the bejesus out of me because Football Manager keeps me sane on the train :/
Not even 'adb push' works! I did adb push with the -p switch to see progress and everything is fine for a minute or two and then
failed to copy 'xx.xx' to '/sdcard/data/xx.xx': Read-only file system
This is officially driving me up the wall now, surely someone has an idea of why my internal storage stops extracting an archive or copying files after a short period :/
