I have installed MaclawStudio Kit Kat ROM (version of March 17th, 2014) in my Galaxy S2 Lite (a.k.a Galaxy S Advance).
Everything was running fine, but now with some months of usage I was fighting with low internal memory available, even though I have only a few apps installed.
I used Storage Analyser app to check where the pain point was an found out a big number of folders with the naming mmdsp-SIA_... in the data folder.
They contained the following files:
mem_sdram_data.data
mem_sdram_code.data
mem_esram_code.data
mem_tcm.data
metadata.txt
I could not find much information about this, but as the name folder contained a timestamp I imagine this is some kind of Short Dump memory information.
I deleted this folders, made free more or less 400 MB and so far the phone is ok.
Thats what happen when you use ****law cm :laugh::laugh::laugh:
PS: sorry for OT
Same problem here
Hi,
I'm having the same exact problem with my S Advance but i have no custom ROM, though i have routed my phone to uninstall operator apps so that i could make it run lighter.
I have more than a hundred of them and don't know if i can delete them without problems.
Do you still have those kind of directories ?
Have you found what they are for ?
And still no problems deleting them ?
Thanks

Sorry for that rude post . Try SD Maid, it can free some space.

Hello, sorry for the late response.
The folders appear again now and then. When I'm low on space I always check the data folder and if they are there I'll delete them.
No harm so far.

I was wondering if anyone knew of such a thing (a download to enable camera flash even at low battery) or would be kind enough to provide me with one, I would be so grateful. I've tried searching around to no avail. Thanks in advance.
*Actually, or if anyone knows where in the settings I can change this at because I've went through everything I see and I can't find an option for it.
I need it too....
Last time i checked, this was in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery\
Change the 0 value to "FlashlightpowerUnavailable" : 1
Cheers

Hi there djet,
i tried to transfer both the files to the windows folder but i am getting this message: "be certain that there is enough free storage memory, that the destination is not write protected and that the file is not currently in use". Have you personally tried the method already?
many thanks

All you need to do is to copy Camera.exe to \Windows folder. You are definitely doing it wrong. Try Resco's Explorer for file management.

Personally? The patch and the package are mine. Of course it works.
Thanks djet...worked this time (using resco's explorer).
i tried using the native file explorer yesterday which didn't work
EDIT++++
i tried the camera app and it didn't work. says that app may be right protected... i returned the original camera app and i got it to work. do i still have to do something on the replacement camera app before placing it to the windows folder?
thanks

What ROM are you using and what exactly is the message?
I am using the old ROM (1.48.707.2) WWE. I'm from the Philippines btw.
I'm sorry I forgot the exact message but it did say something like either the phone having not enough memory space (but I still have 78MBfree space) or installing a right-protected (certificate) file?

The patch is intended for 1.66+ Camera. Certificate checks must be disabled as the patched exe isn't properly signed.
i see. now i am going to have to be forced to upgrade my rom thanks
Hi, i'm facing some problems with the swapping i did (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1857391)
I honestly don't know what to do, i'm not very good at these things. I tried it twice on my samsung galaxy note 10.1 and both times the swap is sucessful BUT it still saves in the internal.... I'm running stock kernel if you need more information you can ask. Oh and I did it with script manager
Please, help me. I really need the space
(using Sandisk ultra class 10 64 gb)

Give it time. Not everyone checks XDA on an hourly basis.
So when you run the script it moves everything and does what it should? But then you get new apps and they continue to install on internal?

Did you happen to read anywhere that it needs to be run again when adding new apps? Like it only moves them the one time and it's not like a setting that future apps go to sd.

If i understood corectly, I didn't read anything like that but i made the script (via script manager) executable and to run at boot. It should just install in the external without boot or anything else needed.
I read on other forums about other devices that the easiest way to swap internal with external is by modifying your vold.fstab, but the mine is really wierd (I can post it if needed) , it's not like the other peoples devices. Maybe its that way on all SG note 10.1 because no one else has done it on the note 10.1.
Maybe I should flash a new rom? Like omega? I really don't know
So, I understood what I was doing wrong. I had updated the version of my device and the script wasnt compatible with JB. Though I have a quick question for anyone. Now that I used the one for JB and swapped the internal with external when i download a game for example Iron man (which is 800MB) a small part (around 10MB) goes in the internal,that happends with all games (some even take more 15MB or so). Is that normal?
EDIT: Nah, it still fully installs in the internal, swap is still sucessful though, at least it shows so.... Maybe if I can go back to ICS?
I have removed bloatware from the original rom. Also wherever possible replaced Lenovo specific applications
with open source ones. LED notifications work thanks to the integrated ButtonLED application.
You can select the SD card as the default storage
Instructions for installation:
First flash Linerty´s rom S116 or S121 (to double the amount of DATA space, ie. for better partitioning)
Then install this ROM via recovery (md5sum: 05ed1d5272ad2c80cf207587d4fc9fff recovery.img)
Alternative Download link
After first boot allow root permissions to ButtonLED and configure it for LED notifications (Except in the Lenovo A850 the led is green/led, the first option in autolocate)
More info on 1st post (Spanish) here
Thank you but shouldn't you post some more info? You only say how to install...
Please add:
- What is the rom features? (deferences with the original)
- Photos?
- Bugs?
- Referers? (who helped to make it)
The more info in Spanish is not a solution.
Me, as a user i already have a rom and i want to see why should i flash your rom before spending some time doing so...
Take a look in other roms topics to get the idea
Thank you in advance ^_^

Unistall a big app and try again. If your app is installed than you do not have space where your apps are going... the question is "where" are they going....

If AVG was bigger than the app you are trying to install then something is messed up...

I do not know that app... Syncronize your contact with google and backup your SMS with an app from the store.
Flash the phone... and your problems will be lost...
Always make a backup before anything... (a backup from recovery)

I am using s121 from Linerty and it's not that stable as u might think. i got multiple force closed games,and the reknown " using SD card as default memory" is not working quite like that. i still got " low internal storage" errors. is this version more stable and using SD card as default memory correctly ?

Hello, i got a big issue, not 1st time it happens so i'd like to find out what's wrong, since the device doesn't have any working custom recovery and i don't wanna loose all! The issue is : while trying to uninstall/reinstall some game, the obb file is, for a reason i ignore, lost in the system/cache partition. I can know this simply because the free space isn't back and in storage, the "system" is much bigger than usual. The question is: HOW CAN I FIND the location of this damn file? Android experts that are around will probably be able to tell me this..
I already found the bastard! It's in mnt/shell/emulated/obb, if someone's ever got same issue

Hi,
Since a few days I'm unable to see any data in my phone via gallery or file manager or any application, and I'm unable to save any data to internal storage. (example: I'm able to use whatsapp for texting, but I can't receive/send any audio/picture and I can't access the old ones).
And I keep getting this error message:"com.android.providers.media.MediaApplication keeps stopping."
I don't know if that's what causing it or if that's just a consequence of not being able to access internal storage.
I can still see all the used storage from settings though.
Phone has unlocked bootloader, but no root/custom rom/recovery.
I saw other Oneplus users started getting the same error these days... (I have a Oneplus 6, but others have different models like Oneplus Nord).
Someone resolved by wiping system and they were able to retrieve storage content and functionality, but they lost apps data, I'm trying to find another way since I have an unlocked bootloader.
A user on stackoverflow suggested I should clean the com.android.providers.media.MediaApplication app data to regenerate the database, but I couldn't figure out how to do it
I tried cleaning media and media.module packages (not media.MediaApplication) from adb but no luck even if successful.
I tried removing "com.android.providers.media" (not media.MediaApplication, I couldn't find that one) folder from data/data with twrp file manager but no luck...
Is there a way to specifically clean "com.android.providers.media.MediaApplication"?
If anyone has any other suggestion on things to try, post it here please.
