Nand internal storage problem

hi
i have installed nexushd2 froyo Nand rom, and it's runing fine. but i just got 21 mb left on the internal storage, so i can't instal any apps or update.
i have tried to use app2sd but don't help anything, and have looked at some other treads but didn't help much

Load up app2sd and then move your apps to your SD card, simple! You can also use programs like Titanium backup to move them also.
If you cant figure out how to move them there isnt much hope for you im affraid.
Alternativley you should give a ROM a go that has App2SD+ or Data2Sd but you will have to create a partition on your SD card either via CWR or via a partition software. Once this is done all your apps will automatically be moved to SD when using App2SD+ or if you use Data2SD your partition will actually be a aextension of your internal memory which is much better

I haved moved all my app from sd card but didnt help

Dude that is completley normal! How much internal storage do you think your device has?
Ill take it you have a EU HD2 and not a US one?

in the same boat.

I have the US T-mo version and i am having the same issue as the original poster. The issue is that apparently 200 + mb's left is not enough for me. The phone decides which ones I can move and which ones go to the internal memory. Likewise App2sd is only moving a few apps. Not all the ones I am newly downloading.
I am also experienced a recent problem. I tried to open up pictures with the 3d gallery to view photos. the program started up and then the low disk error appeared out of nowhere then the gallery shut down!?!?!? Now how does this get remedied? this is not an issue for app2sd (that i know of) or moving anything is it?
thanks in advance

Yes it is a EU version, so I have to live with that i can't install Any app?

Gameloft games to external sd card

Hello,
i know that this is been ask alot for other phones.
But how can I get my Gameloft games to the external sd card?
I know there is a patch for samsung galaxy s2 but it don't works on my galaxy note.
The note stores the games in Android/data/asphalt6(or another game). so not the gameloft map.
i don't want to root my phone.
Thanks for helping me.
Best regards

not just gameloft ones...all game data...is it possible to do that?...
If we use app2sd apps will move to internal sdcard not onto the external one.
If someone know a solution let us know.
cheers!

Would be nice. I'm running out of room with all this game data on the internal sd

That will move them to internal sd, not external

If it was possible on the s2 then there must be a way to do it on the note. Whatever mod was used maybe someone can edit that app/mod to use the android/data on the external card. This should be easy for the right person

Yeah, tried SGS2 old trick with gamelofts games, too bad it doesnt works on Note too and really need move all gamedata to external card. 4 games takes up 4gb already and I havent started to try out emulator games yet.
Wish there is 32gb Note.

this same method works with NOTE also.
download "Auto_Patch_APK_for_Samsung_by_Duero__include_Java_" from fro SII forums and use the patched apps
working as i can confirm:
1) Asphalt 6 HD
2) Rainbow 6
3) brothers in arms 2 HD
4) splintercell HD
5) NOVA 2

Hmm..weird, tried that with Asphalt 6HD and it didnt worked for me. Gonna try it again and see then.

Has anyone tried "gl to sd" from market? Supposedly moves data to external sd card
GALAXY NOTE

if u dont want all that mess just simply copy the gameloft folder to external sd and use
create a script in script manager and set it to run on boot and the script will be
"mount -o bind "the new gl directory" "the old gl directory" "
without quotes
works like charm.

thanks .. working with galaxy note..

The patch does not work for me.
The easy way is to root your phone. everything is original you have only root and then use gl to sd.
I have 8 games now on my external sd and works perfect.
@smackdownn: do we need root for this?

yes u have to root because script manager needs root access

So you have to root in order to move the games over? I just moved several gameloft games over to sd including asphalt and bia2.
Is that normal?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

That is your phones memory the 16gb.
What we want is the game data on the external sd card.
Via root and gl to sd is it possible and via script manager (never tried that but sounds good!).
@ smackdownn: so i only have to download script manager and put your text in script manager? Sounds good.
Is there no bad side whit this method?

Yeah I used apps2sd for a bit to try it out. I could move most apps but some would not work. However your ABSOLUTE BEST option in this regard would be to use data2sd. This moves the entire /data partition to a class 10 SD card. So all your apps will be installed there. This gives a MASSIVE I/O boost. I think you will like how fast your tablet is after enabling data2sd.

Haha nooooo it is a kernel tweak. The easiest way is to flash a kernel that has it included. You also will need a partitioning software on your computer to partition your SD card. This isn't a simple, install an app and enable something. That being said, its not that complicated. Although, I don't think its working quite right on 4.2.1 right now, as kernels are still relatively new. But if you are on 4.1.1 (or downgrade) there are multiple kernels that have it.
Edit: here is the thread with a guide (its for tf700 but its the same process, just use the right kernels) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962507
And here is a link to a stock kernel with the data2sd patch enabled. Remember this is for 4.1.1 boot loader and you must complete above guide first to format your card.
http://d-h.st/IBm
Also, all this info is in the CROMI 2.x thread.
None of this is mine. I just posted the relevant links. All thanks for creation go to the original threads

Yes this app works great, you can move apps to the primary partition(FAT) of your sdcard, or you can sym link them to an EXT partition, so they are on your SDcard, but android doesn't know they are, so you can still create widgets from the apps.
I use this on my razr maxx and my TF300t.

Best i can remember:
Open the app
Grant super user permissions
Let it install a script
Reboot(dont remember if it asks you to reboot or not, but i had to reboot in order for it to work
After the reboot, open the app, and long press on any non system app and select link to sym link to the EXT partition, or select move to move the app to SD(native android method).

Nope...nothing has worked.

Bro data2sd is being implemented in 4.2... check CROMI-X thread. This is exactly what your looking for and it will remove the crappy I/O limitations of asus's crap hardware. This will speed up your tab. At least look into it man. All you need to do is partition your SD card with gparted then flash a data2sd kernel and boom. Your entire /data partition is moved to your SD card so ALLLL apps can be installed there AND save their data there.
EDIT just saw that your still locked... SORRY! Above info requires unlocked bootloader. =( but if you want the most out of this tab I recommend unlocking and flashing some better firmware. Stock speeds are just so miserable IMHO...

Looks like I'll have to jump that direction...just see so many posts of bricked tabs freaks me out..haha

Hey man, I believe in you haha. But most bricks recently were caused by updating to 4.2. Since your already on 4.2, you only have to unlock and flash recovery via fast boot. JUST MAKE SURE YOU FLASH THE CORRECT RECOVERY. there is a very specific version on twrp for 4.2. Many people have bricked by foolishly flashing the 4.1.1 twrp. As long as you have the correct twrp, and dont do anything foolish you won't be in any danger.
This guide has instructions AND the correct version of twrp

do you mean LINK2SD ? Yes im using it its cool ! you weren't only move the apps to SDCard but you can link the file to save more internal memory but before u use this app you must partition ur sdcard first and its easy just use " MiniTool Partition Wizard 7 "

Yes this is a viable option if you wish to remain locked. Also you can Use the guide for data2sd to partition your SD card (if you wish) cuz its the same exact process. However you will not be able to move your /data partition like with data2sd. If your just trying to save space on internal storage, link2sd should suite your needs just fine. Ide say try link2sd first, then if your unsatisfied, all you have to do is unlock and flash a kernel with data2sd cause your SD card will already be partitioned!!! You've got nothing to loose with link2sd so might as well start there. =)

So I got Link2SD working - cool! :good: saved me about 1GB +
Now..my other problem and I don't really know where to go with one...
It says my SYSTEM storage is at 4% LEFT..that's all. It wont even allow me to update an app because it says insufficient memory available.
So does this mean end of the line for it and its time go unlock and go custom?? Any other suggestions or ides?

Excellent, glad to here you got it working. I find apps that I move to my SDcard also run much faster because the SDcard is so much faster than the internal memory.
As for your system, this is nothing to worry about. The system partition is READ ONLY. The main components of the rom are stored there, and nothing is added or taken away from this partition unless you are wiping or flashing roms.
Short answer, it will never move from 4%, up or down, even if you installed 100 apps, or uninstalled very thing you have. When you install apps, uninstall them, or move them to SD, you will be effecting the DATA partition.
Hope this helps.

Excellent explanation thank you! I'm actually leaning towards unlocking and going with Cromi-X as Mark suggested...I'm thinking the Data2SD will give me more of what I truly need...and that seems to be I need more space for all the apps installed.

[Q] [Help] Unable to Run Game from extSD card on Galaxy S4

For quite some time I am facing this issue with Galaxy S4
As the Internal storage is limited to 8GB, so installing Big games like Asphalt 7,8 and FIFA 14 in the internal storage is a challenge.
Earlier on my Galaxy S2, what i used to do was copy the OBB/Data file to 'sdcard/Android/obb'' or 'sdcard/Android/data'. By this way i can install many large games.
But with Galaxy S4 - I9500, this is not the case. DATA files are only recognized when put in phone memory /Android/obb.
Is there any way to solve this issue? Is it only me or others are also facing same problem?

Hi, i would recommend using FolderMount, you can transfer your big games or apps (data and obb) from internal memory to external sdcard, i use it on my i9500 and it works pretty good.......however i also recommend a class 10 external sdcard to increase the read data rate on heavy games like the ones you mentioned above.......
