Hey!
I noticed I have almost 2gb of miscellaneous files all the time. What are these files and can I delete them?

if u upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 recently without wipe data afterwards, this will happen. if that's not the case,just ignore me.
That's shouldn't be the case
Miscellaneous here refers to the files other than system memory and cached data. Which means the things you have on your internal sd card

if my case,i boot in recovery mode and do wipe data/factory reset,but that way,all your apps are gone too. so you should investigate better,like brian said,try search you internal via pc see got any abnormal file.
I did a little investigation and found out that there was still Asphalt 7 files after uninstall. Now I have a bit over 2gb free space and 0,8gb of miscellaneous files. I don't know what are those files, maybe some app data + play music + YouTube player cache.

My question is what does internal memory have to do with browser downloads?? Shouldn't they default to my SD?

Try downloading from email, see if you get same error.

The Fota app works great for this. Just did it and got over 250mb free on my device. Will check on that storage checking now.

I was never prompted to create an account when I downloaded titanium backup. How does it work when I wipe and flash a new a rom? Or get a new device?

It saves the apk & data on a file on your sd. Just put the backup in your new phone sd and tb will recognize it.
Cool thanks for the reply.

Just restore that app in your new Rom or phone
In it there's an option for restore, etc etc likewise many other options
Choose whatever you wanna do from there!

I just flashed a rom today. Went to the store downloaded titanium backup and it instantly started loading and restoring my apps. As long as you have titanium backup restored of course

It probably restored the data on the SD. Use a file explorer and try to paste and replace it in root.
You would have to find the file in the phone data I think. Can't rmb.

Well I did move it to SD card. Then I got a new SD card. Tried to see the files from my old card on my computer and was going to transfer them but there didn't seem to be anything on it important?? If that makes sense. And in titanium backup I had all my user apps on SD card buut nothing showed on my computer.

Hi.
Can I make a backup of WiFi settings - passwords from one Rom and restore them to another?
I used to have problems backing system data up from different ROMs. But you can try it, should be under backup system data in TiBu. WiFi settings maybe?

Hi my tablet is experiencing storage issues although I don't have much apps installed... I have moved all the photos, videos, music on my external sd card, removed many games, cleared all the cache and now there is less than 500mb space available which is not allowing me to install new apps or update the existing ones also, my device lags a lot.
Pls suggest me a way to free space I don't know where all my space has vanished, I will also like to inform that I'm running on official 4.1.2 release and the device is not rooted!
Thanks

Yes i had installed app2sd but removed it immediately when I found its no use on my tab...I havent installed any virtual ram apps.
What's that circle?
If all your stuff is on the external SD already, try formatting the internal.

That circle is chat head of one of my fb friend. I have factory reset my tab and now its all fine, this is the second time I had to loose all my apps and data and its headache to download alk over when u dont have wifi.... what is the problem anyway why the memeory gets filled so much when I know there isnt much user data. One of my friend said its a jelly bean memory leak issue, is it possible?

Go to settings > More > Storage > select Miscellaneous files select all and delete im sure you will have alot free storage covered by useless data and files you don't need .
( personally I apply & got 6GB free space and im happy now )

It simply deletes the..Thumbnails folder in intern sd, you can also do it manually but the files will get generated again over time. And the poor media scanner issue has not yet been fixed by google

You can freeze the video player with titanium backup after deleting thumbnails. The preview thumbnails will not be created any more. Use alternate video players like mxplayer etc. This will fix the issue and give back a few hundred MB or in my case 1.3 gb space back depending on your video library.

Is there any way to remove the 'virtual sd card partition'. And format 'external sd card' as 'sd card partition'?
