[Q] S4 Memory problem, Need help..

First of all, hello to everyone, I've been a big fan of this site since the very start I found it out and it sure helped me alot in my android experiences and adventures. So.. Thank You All, for these great efforts and information you'll are providing in order to help people and make phones more pleasant to use.
'This is the first time I'm posting on XDA bc I need help with something:
I have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S 4 (i9505 model). I'm from Netherland btw and also bought my S4 here.
Before my S4 I was using a HTC DHD, which I screwed around alot with, like installing custom ROM's provided here and other stuff. I don't know if some options on Android phones are phone specific or not. But on my DHD i always could move apps from internal memory to my SD Card and otherwise, which i can't on my S4. This is like the last thing I need to do on my S4, bc I got a 16 GB model (9 or so useable) and I got only 3 GB left while I have a Ext. SD Card of 32 GB (30 useable) and only used 1,5 GB of it.
'This feels like having a beautifull hot girlfriend, but not being able to do anything nice with it, if you know what I mean..
I don't know where, but I once read it's possible to merge internal and external to 1 storage, like combining 2 partitions to 1 or making a RAID partition out of 2 different storages on phones. Is there anyone who can help me exactly with what I need please?
Thanks in advance.

The new software update thats allready rolling out will allow apps 2 sd card feature, it has arrived to some countries already maybe you should check your OTA or kies update. Or else you can flash it yourself manually .

Anyway what i do is go to settings, app manager, swipe to the right to find 'all' where all your apps is located, then click on an app and find "move to SD card"

Update to XXUBMEA. It provides App2sd support but I think you can only move the app, not its data.

Sorry for the late reply, but I live in Italy.
I reinstalled everything from zero with a full wipe and this is my update about the rom:
1. Very stable ( no more fc's nor strange error messages like i had in 5.1)
2. WiFI hotspot working flawlessly
3. Watchon is working but only if you don't update it ( play store does it automatically and then it stops). In case it happens, you need to uninstall the update and bring it back to the original app.
Thanks a lot, i really like this Rom and your'e a very nice guy!
PS. the only issue I still have at times, when i try to exit some app by using the physical "back " button, i get System UID asking for superSU permission, but it's stuck and i can't ever give it the permission. Anyway, nothing happens and everything keeps working

Thank bro. This rom is nice. i will test it on my device very soon.

Hi Eudemony,
Registered to say GREAT work, thanks.
I've tried a few roms, but so far I like your's the most.
A few questions though:
1. I'm not able to set Data Usage limit( as I have only 750 MB/month), I would like to have my data off when it reaches set limit. Is this a bug?
2. When i go to setup lock screen widgets (like weather), my "Favorite apps or Camera" is frayed out. IS this something that i had to chose when i flashed?
3. If i need to add a future, can i just reflash and chose "no data wipe" (not sure if this called dirt flash?) - I'm new to all this root/flash so be patient with me please .
4. Why am i not able to move (almost) all apps to SD card (I thought this was enabled)? or do i need to install third party app for this?
I'm sure I'll have more questions later
Thanks in advance for your help.

Camera problem!
sorry i have a problem, the app camera not working! help me please!

Thanks a lot for making this ROM, even though I only started using this from version 5, I am fully convinced that this is indeed the best ROM ever for i9505.
Just recently I flashed v6.1 to test out but I am forced to revert back to 5.1 because after flashing , the ExtSD car write was disabled, using the default AEL kernel.
In addition, the 4G/LTE stop working after a few minutes or after receiving a call, using TMO CSC. But when I reflash it and use MM1 CSC, the 4g issue was fixed but the extSD card problem still disable.
Anything possible fix for this? or am I the only one facing this issue.
Thanks for the usual support.

OK got the data usage limit sorted out, but the rest is still unsolved/ un-answered.

Watch on
Hello everybody, I'm using it with great satisfaction this rom but I can not in lcun way to run watch on ..... is there some setting I forgot?
Thanks !!!!

Can you add the S5 UPSM with your ROM?
I really like the Alpha look and mods in this ROM. However, I think there should be UPSM, which on my opinion will make it much better. I wouldn't have asked you because i would have just flashed an S5 ROM. But all of these ROM feel very slow and glitchy and full of unwanted apps.

Can i install googy max kernel v1.1.7 with this ROM? Thanks

Try this first for lock screen shortcuts
1. go to settings > my device > lock screen
2. select shortcuts (4th menu item down)
3. select custom
4. now go to edit shortcuts (directly below)
5. add/edit your wanted shortcuts
now lock your screen with the power button
lockscreen shortcuts should be displayed

Slimming ROM
Hi,
I have an S4 which I am happily running Eudemony ROM on - great work. I have got used to Rooting and changing ROM's over the last 4 years or so and now, I want to try to do something myself. I was hoping for some pointers as to where to start, as my new tablet, SM-P905, does not seem to have anyone working on it (
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers, Panrix

This work!

Lolipop S5 Benchmarks / GL to SD working? Worth it loosing XPOSED?

I was hoping to stay on 4.4.4. Can anyone on Lollipop comment on the smoothness of the device after the upgrade. I am using the debloated Eclipse rom on 4.4.4 Has anyone done a benchmark before and after? Is there a big difference when you upgraded from 4.4.4 in application switching?
I have over 200 games installed using "GL to SD" that app works flawlessly for me. It is just a dream come true with a Samsung 64 gig microSd card. I am afraid a lot of the games wont be supported and I will run into issues. I am especially afraid GL to SD won't work at all, as there is no mention of support from the author. Not to mention loosing access to XPOSED framework probably permanently.
I am probably going to stick with a 4.4.4 Rom for awhile. It doesn't seem like a huge update to me. Can anyone comment on that. Does the Lollipop upgrade make a big difference for you?

Personally, I think the UI looks a lot better, Speed is a little better than KK.
Not sure about GL to SD though sorry.
Now the big thing with XPOSED is do you use it for simple things or full blown customization, there is root available here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...l/how-to-update-to-g900vvru1boa8-5-0-t3020546
so if XPOSED does get updated ( he barely managed to get XPOSED to work on his nexus) then you will get the stuff you used XPOSED for back.
Sorry I'm not much help.

I agree with previous post, looks much better and a little faster.
I just ran Antutu v5.6 and scored 47,000. I didnt run it before switching to Lollipop.

Just ran Quadrant v2.1.1
Scored 30,000
This one I have run on Kit Kat and Lollipop rooted scored significantly higher than my old scores.

GL to SD was updated does not mention in Playstore but was updated to Lollipop
Thanks very much for the info appreciate it. I did notice GL to SD was updated but didn't mention Lollipop in the store notes. However when you load the app it does say Lollipop support. That app is great for moving large games to the SD card. It has been working flawlessly no problems.
Xposed I use for the ROM tweaks. Like Wanam Xposed for General tweaking. "Gesture Navigation" is great to build in navigation gestures that only are active on the notification or any other screen.
Thanks for the upgrade information I appreciate it.

Dude you can always just use titanium backup to move to sd... honestly I usually use the native app2sd, never had a problem.

[Q] i9505 CM12 storage problem

Hi all,
Actually this is a 2 part question.
I just updated my i9505 to CM12 lollipop.
1. This is a minor problem out of the 2. The internal storage bar shows a wrong proportion. As you can see, I have 1.81GB available but it's taking up half the meter bar for some reason.
2. From the photos you can see I have 13.31GB available on my external SD card, yet when I tried to move some apps from internal storage to SD, lollipop is giving me an error saying "Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space." Which is obviously not true. I also tried using Link2SD but it gave me an message saying "INSTALL_FAILED_CONTAINER_ERROR".
If anyone could give me some advice on how to fix the mentioned problems I will be very grateful.
Thank you in advance,
Nelson

Hello All,
I am a long time user of custom ROMs for my devices, as I'm sure most here are. I have had my Shield tablet (wifi only 16gb version) since January, and in that time I have tried many ROMs. The only one that has allowed app to be installed onto the SD was the rooted stock Lollipop. I have tried, PAC (KK and LP beta), CM12, and ASOP 5.0. All fresh installs of these ROMs have lead to the infamous 'Couldn't Move app. Not enough Storage Space.'.... Therefore, I am waiting patiently for a solid ROM that allows App2SD. Keep up the good work!

Need to move game data to External SD card

Hi I am using Zenfone 2 laser ze550kl. I am on latest stock rom. I want to play HD games. As we have only 16 gb internal memory and all apps are installed on the internal memory I have only 2 gb left on it. So how can I install and play hd games which needs 1.5 gb space to install and without hampering my phone performance.... Please help....

Have some app like "folder mount"
And if have xposed use app Obb on SD (hard use than folder mount"

@ValKyre
That's a very old way to do things...
@mithips
You need adoptable storage, and must be on Android Marshmallow first. You should already have it if you did all your ZE550KL updates.
See the guides I've found here to enable it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-2-laser/help/enable-adoptable-storage-asus-android-t3419252

No it doesn't, some manufacturers like Samsung, LG and Asus disable it for "performance reasons".

I can't confirm for ZE550KL, but it's a generic procedure for any Android 6.
Because the procedure don't need flashing or root, you will not have any problems, it's safe to do it.
