Depending on the app(s) you delete you may use some functionality or simply will result in a bootloop or system crash
Internal storage will share with your favorite apps. Some apps will work in *root/system/data, some app will not work and will bootloop. And you can remove some useless app from your system. Ex: youtube,themes, unused sounds, wallpapers.
So you can increase your internal storage from root/data if you move some apps to root/system/data.. Example, i moved aquamail to system (this app will work in system) ... It gives 5 mb from my internal data storege. Easy ha ?
And always do nandroid backup before playin system. It will increase your learning.

And your custom rom has status bar bug, it is really nice port, very smooth and lagless.. But this bug realy annoying me, so you can use auto lux app.. It can calibrate your screen brightness.

For Non Rooted Devices
There is nothing other then using app2sd apps. Then move all the movable items to sd card. After installing app2sd all newly installed apps are automatically moved to external storege.
I uses app2sd by sam lu.
But for non rooted users I will highly recommend to root there device and make the best use of this smartphone.
for beginners everything about rooting/custom roms/nandroid backups etc is explained in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606380
thanks a lot to A.cid for this wonderful guide
For Rooted Device
apps required
1.Root explorer or similiar
2.Link2SD (Link2sd Setup is explained later in this post)
step 1.Removing Useless system apps from stock or custom rom
go to /system/app using root explorer and mount as r/w
now delete unwanted apps
I will prefer freezing the app first using link2sd and then if phone is working fine then you can unfreeze and then delete that app
Step 2. Removing dalvik cache files
go to /data/dalvik-cache
now search for the dalvik cache files of deleted system apps
it will having name like
[email protected]@[email protected]
delete this file
Step 3. Linking files to Sd-ext or second partition of Sd card
if you have finished Link2sd setup then you can proceed further
open link2sd and then create Link for all the apps you want to linked to sd card
check all the 3 box 1. link apk 2. link dex 3. link lib files
and then your app will be moved to the sd-ext partition
if there are apps which are used very frequently then i prefer not linking dex files to sd card. link only apk for them.
currently system apps can't be linked using link2sd
In the case if app is not working properly after linking then remove links for that app.

There are a lot of ways and scripts to transfer apps from your internal memory to the sd ext partition, but the most consistent method I found was Link2sd.
This method works across all roms (rooted stock and custom, both) that I’ve tried, even on all variations of CyanogenMod7 (CM7) as well as on ICS CM9, and is very easy to setup and use.
However, if a custom rom already has DarkTremor's a2sd (a2sdgui app will be present) or any similar script, then DO NOT configure them.
for example: Creeds v3 has a2sdgui, and if i want to use Link2sd, then after flashing Creeds, i SHOULD NOT run a2sdgui, and directly install (and configure) Link2sd...if you run/configure a2sdgui, then it will clash with the working of Link2sd.
Similarly, if any custom rom has any memory hack already implemented, then you cannot use Link2sd...
Steps to setup Link2sd:
• Download Link2sd from Play Store (it’s a free app).
• After it gets installed, run it, and allow root access.
• You will get a message to select the format of your sd partition, select “ext3”.
• Link2sd will then automatically create mount scripts that it requires to work, and will then tell you to reboot your phone.
• Do a proper reboot, and not a ‘hot reboot’.
• After rebooting, open up Link2sd, press menu then select “settings”.
• Select/check the options “automatically link newly installed applications to sd”, “auto link notification”, “relink lib files at boot” (and “fast scroll”, if you want).
• For “install location” option, select “internal”.
• Then go to “auto link settings” and select/check all the three options (you can skip/ unselect “link dalvik-cache file” if you wish)
• Done
Now, every new app that you will install will automatically be moved to your sd ext partition.
Link2sd is also an excellent (and fast loading) app manager, with which you can freeze, uninstall, re-install…though you can move only user apps to sd-ext partition.
Also, there is no point in having your entire phone memory empty, so you probably should unlink the dex (dalvik cache) of your apps. I usually link only the apk and lib files, and leave the dex files unlinked and on the phone storage, so as to avoid any sluggishness in operation., though if your phone memory still fills up, you can link the dex of your rarely-used apps, and leave the dex of important and frequently used apps on the phone storage.
Suppose a custom rom has s2e/app2sd pre-implemented, then after a fresh install, FREEZE the app (rather than uninstall), and then install Link2sd...
Also, if you get error "mount script not created", then choose partition as ext4 (rather than ext3 mentioned below), even though your partition might be ext3...(don't know why this happens with some roms )
In some custom Roms Link2sd doesn't mount sd-ext partition even after selecting correct type of partition in that case try to select other types whether they are working or not
Like in Chocobread v3.2 it worked after selecting partition as ext4

What happens when we install a new app??
I'm not a developer but this is what I experienced
/data directory is the space which is shown as Internal Storage in phone
/system directory has nothing to do with this internal storage
when we install a new app then it during the installation process three things happens
1.it creates an apk file in /data/app
2.creates an .dex file in /data/dalvik-cache
3.creates one folder in /data/data
when we move apps to sd that apk file moved to sd storage in
.android secure folder and creates an .asec file there
so basically that .dex file and data files are responsible for eating our internal space and for the apps which can't be moved to sd that apk file is also responsible.
we can't use widgets if app is on sd storage.
so in order to use widgets we have to move back to internal storage.
this is where Link2sd helps us
link2sd links selected files to sd-ext partition and for system it still appears in internal storage but it's not there actually.
While for system apps
.apk files remains in /system/app
only .dex files are in data/data directory
we can use widgets of system apps even apk files are not in /data/app directory
so it is recommended that if you want to use widget of the app but you don't want it on internal space(as it is using much more space while it is in internal memory)
here is the solution
create an apk file for that app using any backup app
then move that file to /system/app
change the permissions to rw-r--r--
for this simply see the permissions of any other system app and apply same here
to system

partition ur sd card through cm recovery then install s2e from play store now all cm7 rom come with pre install s2e script .
Another way is to use terminal emulator .
Download terminal emulator from the PlayStore and then run the following codes:
Code:
su
*grant/allow superuser permissions*
Code:
pm set-Install-Location 2
exit
exit
Note: sometimes if you get an error you may have to run
Code:
pm setInstallLocation 2
if it fails.
All this does is it allows moving many apps that aren't normally movable to the SD card. After running these codes you should be able to move apps to the SD card via Settings>Apps.
This code also sets the default location for apps to install into as the SD card.
What i do for more internal memory..!
Partitioning your sd card is an option. But if you have a sd card of less storage then this option is ruled out. I use a 2gb sd card and partitioning it is not very feasible for me. so...
1. If I'm on a stock gingerbread ROM i use this script http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303856 .
(I dont use it very often. Only if necessary.) And i odex the ROM if it is de-odexed by using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303856 Universal Odex Script by MatrixDJ96. Odexing works very well!!! :good:
2. For a custom ROM not many modifications are needed. I just remove the unwanted apps using Link2SD. :good:
Hello,
So the Whatsapp application currently takes up about 10 MB of data on my phone. All of that seems to be on the internal memory and not on the SD card even though I've rooted the phone and moved it to the SD card. How can I reduce the application data? I don't even need whatsapp to take a backup of all my messages.
Basically, I always have only 15MB-20MB of free internal memory. How to get more? I only have Twitter and Whatsapp installed. I've rooted the device also so I can delete anything/move anything to SD Card. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Crazysah
Hey there ,
In order to solve your doubt I need a few answers :
How big is your partition ?
Which script have you used?
Which ROM are you using ?
Here are some possible solutions :
With respect to whatsapp only.. you can delete / clear all your chats from the menu.You can delete message backup by first uninstalling whatsapp deleting the message backup on your SD card ( Whatsapp folder on sd card ) .. and reinstalling whatsapp..
If you want to increase your internal memory :
I think you will have to create an SD-EXT partition.. ( assuming you dont have one cause you havent mentioned it). You will get a guide On this post. Check partitioning of SD - Card.
If you are on Stock ROM you will have to create a FAT32 partition and use Link2SD and transfer your apps to your sd partition.
If your on a custom ROM it is recommended to create an EXT partition (for eg: EXT 2,3,4 ) ... and install simple2ext or Mount2Sd or similar such apps..
Depending on how big the partition is you wont face any problems and you can install as many apps as you wish..
I hope this solved your problem.
AFAIK, Whatsapp currently does not support App2SD methods..
Means you have to keep Whatsapp in the internal memory only..
You can use some sort of script to substitute/increase internal memory, as akshat said..

I'm not sure how big my partition is but I have 1.8 GB total space on my SD card. At the moment, I only have 16MB free space on internal memory.
I am using stock ROM but I have rooted and installed SuperUser and Link2SD.
I just want more internal memory. Period. That's all I care about. If this means installing a custom ROM, I'll do it. If this means partitioning my SD card, I'll do it.
Just tell me which is easier and better for long term.

I would suggest you try out a custom Rom and with an ext partition it will work well. Partition Upton 2 Gb and use a script. That's what I do and have had no issues with it... Check out the sscript threads or iinstall the apps in the previous posts. I have also mentioned a guide there.. Gives you the info about partitioning..

I recommend you install cm9 build 11 ... Its a pretty good ROM to start off with...
1 backup all your apps/ data with titanium backup or similar apps.. ( do not backup system apps and data only backup user apps )
2 download ROM from cm9 thread and copy it on to your sdcard .. ( preferably don't put it in any folder )
3 reboot into recovery ( turn off phone .. Remove battery and put it back in
4 press volume down and power simultaneously and enter bootloader
5 using power and volume rockers select and enter recovrry ..
6 using power and rockers select factory reset and then go to mounts and storage wipe cache boot data and system.. ( DO NOT WIPE YOUR SD CARD / EXTERNAL STORAGE )
7 Go back and go to advanced and wipe dalvik...
8 then click on install zip from SD card...
9 select cm9 build11 zip and flash
10 reboot and enjoy your ice cream sandwich 4.0.4

I have a strange link2sd problem... I created the partition and it has been mounted successfully. If I click 'create link' the operation is completed successfully. However after linking the app through link2sd I am left with LESS internal memory than before. I'm using the stock OS but have rooted the phone. Attached are the screenshots showing what happens
As you can see I had 20mb free at the start but after linking I have 14.2mb free.
However in the 2nd partition the memory use increased. So basically when I link something it used more internal memory AND more sd card partition 2 memory. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
It sucks having low memory : /
I have installed ONLY stuff I use. This includes aldiko, viber, whatsapp and other low memory using apps. Had to uninstall firefox and facebook even though I used them but didn't have the memory

It's probably app data (i.e. the data stored by apps, such as messages, game saves etc.) If you go install "Disk Usage" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage&feature=nav_result choose "[root required]", then "/data/app", it will show you which apps are storing the most data. Then go to those apps in settings and clear the data for those apps.
You might also want to consider installing a custom kernel (e.g. cranium build #2) and then installing "Mounts2SD" instead of Link2SD; it lets you move the app data to the SD card as well as the apps themselves.
Thanks for this reply!

The decent custom ROMs don't include scripts for putting apps on SD card, you have to install them yourself. But having said that, I have been using CM10 build #6 for a few weeks now, with Mounts2SD installed (from Play Store app) without any major problems. (Only real bug I've experienced is being unable to toggle WiFi, the solution to which is leaving it on always if you're going to need it; there is also a bug where voices can be distorted in calls, but that only happens if you have 3G enabled while in calls I believe, and I rarely have 3G enabled, so I haven't encountered that issue).
If either of those bugs are big issues for you, I'm afraid I don't think there are any custom ROMs based on 4.0+ without those bugs, so you'd probably have to stay on stock...
Is it possible that you could have mounted the Primary partition as the secondary? :silly:
Or maybe you're using Link2SD with Mounts2SD script already present? :supersilly:

I don't think so, as the image shows the mounted partition being 650mb, while my sd card is 16gb and default memory space is only 150mb.
I'm using the stock rom so its unlikely that Mount2sd script would be present, no?

Oh. Didn't read that. Yup, there would probably be no script if you're using stock ROM.

As far as I remember, Link2SD does not move 'data' files to SDcard. They go to the internal memory. Reboot your phone and then see if it makes a difference. Also clear the cache and dalvik-cache.
Hello, this is my first post on xda-developers.Although it is for experienced people.
These days I am experiencing a very big problem that needs to be solved.I have spent whole DAYS to find a final solution but still I am almost at 0.I was going mad...It may sound easy but its not.
The problem starts here: After downloading Link2SD and partitioning my external SD in order to save space, I realised that actually Link2SD was not so great as it didnt help that much to save space. Why? Because the most space was not held by apk,dex and lib files but by the data files!!
The result was this
I found many apps that could move data to SD, but most of them with no result: FolderMount,Titanium Backup,GL to SD , directory Bind.
FolderMount: It was the first I tried. For some very strange reason I was getting an "Unknown Error" for some app data that I was trying to move.Also it corrupted some data too.Some random times was working though.
Titanium Backup:The most famous "data2sd" app. I was surprised when I found out this one had the ability to move data to the 2nd partition of the external SD.But it failed, as there was not such an option every time I selected an app. As I understood that is because Titanium Backup can support only some specific paths of the SD card. Mine is data/sdext2 but Titanium wants /data/sd or /system/sd/ or /sd-ext/ . Many Titanium users had the same problem on other threads. But most answers recommended to mount a script in init.d folder. A guy suggested to change the folder name from sdext2 to sd. BOTH of these solutions FAILED. 1) My phone ( no ROM installed) does not support init.d and for some reason every "init.d support" app I downloaded was a waste of time.Additionally I cant even make an init.d folder in system/etc...I dont know why...I make it, but it doesnt appear.
2) When I try to rename "sdext2" folder to "sd" it disappears...
GL TO SD: This is a nice app which was working when I tried it. Though I was not able to move the app data from external SD back to the internal storage.And this is a problem.
Directory Bind: I installed it. The first time it worked, and then it stopped...But except from that it cant move data back to internal storage as GL to SD and it does not list the data which I have moved.Also I have to manually find the path of an app's data.
OK. I know that I gave too much info and some of these may be a little confusing but thats the truth. The biggest mess is Titanium Backup as you can see, which is really a mystery. FolderMount maybe tries to move the data to the 1st partition of the SD and because of the small space shows error.Not sure though.
So lets make it more clear. Are these apps compatible with Link2SD and the partitioned SD card? If not, do you have any solution for the Titanium Backup? Do you know any Link2sd friendly "data2sd" app? What I want is just to find a way to move the data to external SD while I have Link2sd. And its really amazing that Link2SD has more than 10 million downloads and there is not a standard "data2sd" app which is actually more important than Link2sd !
Secondary Question: In many threads I saw the term : "Flash this zip in Recovery"...What does it mean and how can I do it?
Waiting for some answers. If you have any questions or want a more specific explanation about something, just ask me
Thanks a lot!
I use these triple combos on all phones ive tested (Link2sd ext4-4gb on sandisk class 10 32gb + folder mount for data+obb + titanium backup /data/sd terminal mod). You can get phone memory usage as low as 200mb. All these on my past stock tipo st21i, my new stock xperia play, ninetology i9480 and stock galaxy win i8552. My usual setups: 4gb of ext4 - ics and up / ext3/ext2 - depends on phone. I use ext3 for my play. Folder mount: i mount the entire /Android/data to external sd. Titanium? Use this AFTER your link2sd mounts your ext4.

The Samsung Galaxy Blaze has 1.4Gb of internal memory, which isn't enough. Is there a way to remove the internal data storage partition and force the system to only utilize the SDcard? I had a MyTouch 4G Slide that had no internal storage for user files (music, pics, etc) and a 32 GB card that worked fine.
Is the samsung device rooted
So what color is your paperweight going to be?? Because that's what you're asking for trying to repartition your internal storage.
He has to be rooted and custom recovery installes to repartition his internal sd card
He wants to completely remove his /data partition, better off using foldermount or link2sd
To use foldermount he need root permissions and for root permission on samsung device he haa to install cuatom recovery from odin
Of course he does. I never said he didnt need root, I'm just trying to persuade him against bricking his phone.
Ok then its good coz bricking is a bad thing to handle.
So i think he must use foldermount
I will make a guide for that
