[Q] Phone storage problem - General Questions and Answers

I have a problem pertaining to the storage space of my phone. I have an HTC One 32gb and I currently have about 5 gb of free space left. When I go into root explorer and check the space of my external sd card, it says it's only used up about about 15 gb. So my question is where is the rest of the space. I know the system takes up about 4-5 gb or something like that, but it shouldn't take up 17 gb! Also, there's a folder named "data" in my root storage, not the sd card folder, that takes up around 18 gb but I'm not sure what the files are inside. How do I free up more space on my phone? Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Sdcard questions

Hi, I'm aware the one x will not have a micro Sd card slot and was wondering how this will work as I've been very dependent on the Sd card in my phone.
Will all the folders that are on your Sd card move in with the system folders?
When I connect via USB into the computer will it pull up all folders or only specific folders if I use it as a storage system?
Is the At&t version only coming with 16 gb space or is there a 32 gb version also?
Lastly, how much memory will actually be available? I've heard only about 12 gb if you have the 16 gb variant.
Would be a great help if anyone could answer.
My life is cool...
all been answered already
The internal storage is divided up in two partitions, a few GB for the system and the rest for storage. So when you connect your phone as a disk drive, it will appear just like any phone with an SD card would.
The LTE model only comes in a 16GB capacity.
My One X has 2.21 GB for the system and 9.93 GB for storage (total of 12.14 GB).

Try formatting your SD card on your computer. I would not reccomend to format it on your device as it mat backfire and delete internal storage. Give it a shot.

Where are apps installed by default in the Huawei Y220?

Hi, I have a Huawei Y220 in which I can't install any apps. I get an error 498. I don't have an external SD cars inside right now. When I check the storage it is divided into two parts: internal SD card (about 9.4 MB available) and internal storage (about 139 MB available). Where are apps supposed to be installed? If it's in the SD card I can see that there is clearly not enough space. But if they have to go into the internal storage, there is still plenty of space for a couple of apps.
Also, when I connect the phone to the PC, I only see the 9.4 MB space. I'm confused with both storages.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Need Help with a Rooted LG Volt

Ok I have an LG Volt thats running Android Kitkat 4.4.2. it has like 4gb of internakl memory and I have a 32gb SD Card in it thats not being utilized. I rooted it because I read with a rooted phone you can move apps to SD Card and clear out bloatware, and I need to make space on my internal memory. I have 1gig of free space left and a game on my phone (that i actually want) is taking up another gig. I want to move that to my SD card but it only moves the app (which is only taking 3mb) it wont move the app data which is taking 1gig. How do I move that data to my Sd card?
Ive tried titanium backup but that doesnt list a move to Sd Card option. Ive tried link2sd, but link 2 SD card is greyd out and it says second partition not found (do i really need to make multiple partition on an SD card to do that? Why not just use the free space thats on its default partition?) and when I try to move it from my phone to my SD card in that program I get a failure message that says "App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your sd card" and then sometime if I try to link it says something about os emulation.
So what I need is step by step instruction on how to move an app (including its data) from my internal storage to my Sd card on my rooted 4.4.2 lg volt. OR how to upgrade my lg volt from kitkat 4.4.2 to Marshmallow 6.0 without bricking it because I hear Marshmallow allows you to turn your Sd card into internal storage which would give me 32 GB of internal storage instead of 8 thus I can keep all my app in my new "internal storage" and not care. Thank you.
surely someone knows >.>
Search lg volt on android forums. Go to root and there's going to be a various selection of threads. Currently devs are working on CM13 I have it installed on mine and yes my SD card is now internal. CM 13 works perfectly BUT some phones may have a green tint in there camera.

What happens if Link2SD were to lose root access?

So, I have an LG Tribute 2 that is messed up. It has Link2SD storing most of it's data on an external SD card, and needs root access to do so. So, before I flash a new rom, I was wondering if all the apps stored on it would be unbinded to the external SD and moved to the internal storage once Link2SD lost root access. Needless to say, if that were the case, that'd wreak havoc on my device, since I have about 8 GB on the external SD, and 5 GB on the internal storage, my LG Tribute, only having an internal storage of 8 GB, would be overloaded (Or something, I'm not even sure what would happen). So would the apps be be unbinded to the SD card? I'd really appreciate an answer, thanks!
