[Q] Benefits of rooting the E3 - Sony Xperia E3

Hi all!
Ignoring the use of root-only apps, I was wondering how much benefit people get from rooting the xperia e3? In other words, saved space or performance enhancements....Not app accessibility.
I'm especially interested in how much internal storage can be freed up. I'm always running low on internal storage, despite transferring everything possible to the SD card.
I hope this thread is not considered too trivial. I have heard about the benefits of rooting in general but I'm wondering about how well it can fix some specific issues I have with this phone.
I haven't rooted before, as I am not interested in root only apps, but this might be my first root.
Thanks in advance...

Mhh By rooting my E3 I could install and play DH4, Summoners war, Brave frontier and respawnables at the same time without deleting data from apk or even uninstall one of them.
I can use customized audio mods, kernel/CPU/GPU tweeks and some other stuff like this
About saved space I got all the crap out of my phone (all google things, all sony bloatware, operator bloatware and so on...
Performance enhancements? By getting down CPU freq. using another governor, I can hear music (with phone speakers, no headset) on my work the full day ( from 7:00 am to 7:00pm for exemple) and being over 40% of battery when I come to home
I believe there are some other benefits there to root your E3 but I just can't remember which or I just don't found yet all other benefits ^^
PS: I hope you understand that all, I learnt english only from gaming, so please be indulgent

Hi
What can I do to free 1,3 Gb in the internal sd?
I sent many apps to the external sdcard except the google stuff, now I have 800 Mb free.
But I think I don't need the paid content of Sony and many others, but I don't know what to delete before I make my phone to be a brick.

Use Link2Sd it indicates what all to uninstall or lucky patcher- it acts as freedom but is better than it

Well, the Link2sd made wonders? 1 Gb is free with 37 installed app. I think its more than I dared to dream of. Big thx to all of You

[Q] HTC Wildfire S' internal storage

Dear all,
I've had an HTC Wildfire S for about 1.5 months and I was informed that it has limited internal memory unless I root the phone. I honestly don't know a lot about gadgets, so it's now a bit frustrating to see that my phone's internal memory is shrinking. I installed quite some applications at the beginning and deleted most of them gradually because of the storage problem. I have 2 questions:
1. Why is the internal memory shrinking while I don't have many apps installed anymore?
2. Is there anything I can do to sort this problem?
I'll really appreciate any feedback. Thank you.
Hellen
Its still shrinking because installed apps create data.
The system creates data.
You can try my app and see if it frees up some memory for you.
Results are better on rooted devices. But it still might be able to free a bit.
SD Maid
Hi Dark3n,
Thanks for your reply. I tried installing SD Maid, but I guess my memory is that limited so that it wasn't successful.
Do you perhaps know how to unlock boot loader so I can root my phone?
Thank you so much for your advice.
Hellen

[Q] Free space for user apps on Z3/Z3D/Z3C

Hello, Z3 users! I am willing to buy one of the Z3 variants but I can't find one information which is really important for me. On my Xperia T, I have only a 2GB partition for apps (apk and data) and on Lollipop it is really hard to have just a few apps installed and not to have a low memory notification even if most of the apps are moved to external SD card. Both phones have 16GB of internal memory but I can't find ANY information about a partition specifically for user apps on any Z3 variant. I had Z3D in my hands with 4.4.4 installed but when I tried to check how much space is for "Downloaded" apps, it showed ~900MB used and ~11GB free... On my Xperia T, on CM11 but also on 4.3 it was showing ~2GB of total space for downloaded apps... So it seems I can even have 7GB of apps installed on Z3 and it won't show "Memory low"? That'd be great, I won't be waiting for Z4... I am confused...
So is the user apps space and internal memory literally joint together or what?
Thanks in advance!

Total you have about 11GB available, warning comes when 75% are full. On Lollipop you can move apps to SD natively so storage should not be really a problem.
True, but what also is true is that after every reboot the moved apps are not totally functional for at least ten seconds.
Thanks, so it's totally different than on my device. Thank you!

Only 11,5GB of memory?

Hi at all guys.
I have a lot of problem with the memory space of my z3
Using Diskusage, i saw that not only I have only 11,5GB of memory(instead of 14,9), but I also have 2,3GB of system data.
For a total 6GB of system apps, not counting the useless google apps for example.
Is that norma? I only have hearthstone on my phone, and i costantly have problem with the free space!
I think it's normal actually. When I get home I will check

It's normal bro, sony rom takes a lot of memory space.
There's a way to remove some bloadware without root? Like with some app? Or with the upadate to Android 6.0
Yeah sadly it's normal. Even with the marshmallow Sony Rom I have 11.5GB free
i'm fine with 11,5gb. But other than that, there are other system data + bloatware that you can't uninstall :/ I think I have something like no more than 5/6gb that i can use

Help unbloating my xperia E3 ?

Hello, I'm new to the forum and I would like to start by thanking anyone that will take the time to read this.
So I've had an xperia E3 d2203 with Android 4.4.4 (factory default) for nearly 2 years now, and I'm quite happy with it, except that given the numerous updates that have been stacking on top af each other, the internal memory is now full and i can't seem to find a way to make it better.
I have no pictures, audio or videos on the internal memory, installed a small numbers of apps on the SD card, and disabled all pre-installed apps I don't use and uninstalled their respective updates.
However, I keep getting a notification the the internal memory is more than 85% full, and I can't figure out a way to free any more memory.
So, is there anything else I could try? I really don't want to give in to planned obsolescence and buy a new phone I can't afford.
I have taken a look in installing a new Android ROM. If this is necessary, which ROM should I install? It seems to me AOSP would be the lightest, since every other ROMs are built off this with more stuff added, but I might be wrong.
Thanks for your input !

Any way to increase storage without SDCard?

I'm about to get the phone but I heard that from 16GB of storage you'll get only 6. Is there a way to increase the storage if you have root? I mean by deleting systemapps.
Thanks!
I installed ROEHSOFT RAM Expander. sample install and wor well.

I think you have to unlock the bootloader to root, only then you may be able to expand the storage and remove bloatware (there is a lot, Swiftkey, Facebook, Kobo ebooks etc...). I am not willing to unlock the BL, too much of a hassle and I'd rather keep the warranty. I have about 3GB free and I'm a light user, so maybe you should reconsider, the Xperia XA1 has 32GB storage and slightly better specs. I have a warning message in the Xperia support app telling me I am running out of storage-just saying so you know, it doesn't pop up or anything but it is just there. Only some downloaded apps can be moved to the sd card.
