Hello everyone, I have been using lenovo vibe K5 NOTE from last one month. everything was working fine, but yesterday i found that my internal memory is showing lesser free storage available then usually.
(It has 32 GB ROM, out of which 7.6 GB is always occupied by OS. So 24.4 GB is available for user)
I remember that 4-5 days ago it was showing around 17 GB free space availabe., And around 6-7 GB used space.
But now suddenly it is showing only 13.45 GB available.
But problematic part is used space is still 6.76 GB and remaining 4.19 GB memory is not showing its details.(13.45+6.76=20.21, 24.4-20.21=4.19)
I have confirmed all above with ES file file explorer, Xplore and inbuilt file manager app

I'm sure that is it occupied by some unnecessary system or apps files, so please help me to find release this storage...

I also checked in setting /Apps and confirming that no app is using that 4GB space.

Hey folks, Long time..
I am havin low memory issues inspite of the fact that i have a 500 MB partition on my sdcard. Below is the Memory Storage Info:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It clearly shows that i've got enough free space on the partition,i.e.,"/data/sdext2/"
As you see, "/data" and "/sdext2" are all empty !
I am wondering :
1) If the partition aint located in "/data/sdext2/", then whats the path for it ?
2) Why does it show low memory despite my external partition is free of space ?
Any help would be appreciated...
FYI, I am using Pranjal's Rom 4.0
Edit: I am on 500 MB ext4 partition on a 16 GB class 6 micro sd card .
so....problem is when you try to install an app it pops out that bloody message about insufficient storage avaliable?
do you use any kind of warez apps on your device?....such as lucky patcher?

Yeah....U got me !
N Not at all... Warez apps are a strict no !
I'd like to know the answer to this as well - there's bugger all on the phone (I used to have lots of apps installed without any trouble when I first got it!) and now, even the smallest app is giving the storage message......
Edit: I need to wait 2 minutes between post - all I'm doing is editing a [email protected]@king typo..sheesh!
I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the folder permissions.
Try (as root of course) in adb shell or in Terminal Emulator
Code:
chmod 777 /data
and
Code:
chmod 777 /sd-ext
But I don't know how this link2sd app works as I use my own mount & bind script in /etc/init.d
So it could be also a problem with that app...
So this are my benchmark test on the new kit kat build for out i9500 .. If you have a 9500 or 9505 post ur benchmark screenshots and tell us what did u do to make it higger!. I hitted 27k on antutu on stock fresh install (with titanium backup restored, 4gb of internal storage free)
Antutu, GeekBench 2, GeekBench3 and Quadrant Pro
Then i made tweaking (with stock kernel) and i got 1k higger.

Here is my build prop (located at system/build.prop) if you want to see the tweaks i made
MyBuildProp
Haven't tried any other benchmark other than AnTuTu on my I9500. I got 28866.
No mods, no root, I simply cleared RAM, went into AnTuTu and ran it a few times, it sat around the 28800 range and 28866 was my highest. I installed 4.4.2 on top of the Indian 4.3 MK9 fw I had previously, haven't done a format yet.
My I9500 is a 32gb model, and has 18.08GB free memory, I've also got a 32GB MicroSDHC class 10 in it with around 16.03GB free memory.

I have Micromax A104 with a custom rom [Sony Xperia E4]. No need to mention it's MTK based phone and has 2 partitions in the internal memory (~800MB for apps and ~1GB for files). So, I just searched a flashable zip to resize internal partitions on this ****ty phone and succeeded. Now I am having ~2GB space for apps and ~300MB for files. (I'm really not sure about numbers at the moment).
The first problem came was my phone saying "Damaged SD card, please format". It thought my internal SD card is corrupted. I played cool as it didn't bother me much and my apps were having a good time until today. I was searching for custom ROMs for my phone from a while but, wasn't able to find a ROM without less bugs, today I found one of Xperia E4. :laugh:
I installed it, everything's fine. Camera checks out, Synchronization checks out, and everything works fine. The only problem is, even though I have repartitioned my internal memory, I'm still having problem installing all my apps that were before. The ROM took much more space than the stock and now I've run out of space again.
I can't move app data to external SD card even with 3rd party apps like "System app remover" & "Link2SD". Please help guys.
I thought to partition my external SD card in order to keep apps on it, but I have no idea about which partition to make, file format to use, and what names I should give them.
TL;DR: Want to keep apps on external SD card, don't know partition format and afterward procedures to do so. Help
I have this 32GB class 10 Samsung EVO. I want to use 4GB of it to keep apps. Help me in doing so please.
Please note - My device is MTK based Micromax Canvas Fire 2 A104. I am using Sony Xperia E4 ROM (I don't think it matters). I have CWM recovery and I wasn't able to find a stable TWRP for it.
I would really appereciate your help. :good:
Thanks,

How does FUSE on Malaysk's work? I thought it combined the SD card and internal memory sort of like Adoptable Storage on Android 6.0.
I just installed V4 of the Malaysk ROM from the MTCD thread. I installed it on a Joying Android 5.1 MTCD.
Before install:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After the Malaysk ROM installed, I inserted a 32 GB microsd card in the GPS slot, a 64 GB microsd card in the SD slot.
I thought there was a way to combine the 64 GB microsd card and the 16 GB internal memory? Do I need to do something to make that happen, or did I install it wrong?
The cardst show up:
And the internal is larger than before:
And I have this new Partition menu:
OR am I just confused about what "FUSE" was?

You are confused as to what FUSE is. It is designed to combine partitions on the internal 16gb nand so that we get 12gb free instead of only 2gb free with the stock rom. It has nothing to do with the external sd card slots. I dont know of any way to combine the internal and external memory with Lollipop. Marshmallow added this feature natively in the OS but I highly doubt we will ever see it on these devices. The best you can do is use an app like Link2SD to try to move the data folders of apps installed on the internal 16gb nand to the external SD. I did this for Plex, so that I could cache/sync a lot of movies on my 64GB card.

Ok thanks, that clears it up some. Does that give more RAM too? Or just more free storage?

Just storage. If joying ever releases a 2GB coreboard for these mtcd devices, I'd buy it in an instant.
hi everyone!
i'm new here and haven't had the chance to read all forums so please, if there is already a thread for this topic, kindly send me the correct url..
anyways, i recently rooted my o+ grande and partitioned my 32gb memory card so that i can use the link2sd app. everything was working fine until this morning when i tried to install some new games that i received the "internal storage running out error". all of my user apps are saved on sd and my sd card has still lots of space.
