Storage problems on I9505 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So after getting my S4 and using it for one week, i decided to flash Omega rom v.3 over the stock interface. The reasons for this are quite obvious. After using that through version v.4 i decided to switch it over to P.A.C rom v22.3.0 and then up to v.22.3.0 LINARO. It was when i first switched to P.A.C i noticed the storage problems. The problem is that i only have access to about 4 GB of the avaliable 9 GB (see attached screenshots). I have since tried both reflashing P.A.C and Omega with no help. I have also tried reflashing to stock and flashing the original .pit file.
Does anybody have any clues towards how to fix this?
EDIT: Figured out the probem: CWM backups are stored in secret directories hidden from view by other apps. All i had to do was go into recovery and delete the backups from there and i got the space back.

Reset the device completly from ur phone setting / accounts / back and reset / reset the device from there all done
U should now have normal memory available
This will delete all ur device data also but the Rom or whatever u have will remain as it's
.

I have tried that but it doesn't work. As you can see from the screenshots it is not a matter of space, but a matter of wrong partitioning.

Samsung Galaxy S and Samsung Fascinate Live Wallpapers for HD2 w/Android

Please delete this thread.
Some of the images look a little choppy but it's only because screenshots through adb aren't as quick as if it were a standard Android phone. Every Live Wallpaper is silky smooth. You'll See.
Left to Right:
Row 1: Dandelion, Sparks, Ocean Waves
Row 2: Luminescence, Layers of Light, Forest
Row 3: Flow, Connection, Blue Sea
Row 4: Aurora

awesome,its really beautiful!thx bro
hmmmm, time to have a go at installing android I think.......
Just about to try these, but can you tell me why the first steps and what happens by putting those files into the lib folder?
could I not just install the apk's on their own with a file manager?
just curious...really
EDIT: answered my own question... you can't install the apks on their own.. but i am getting an error message when I try and copy the two files into the lib folder, says java.io.IOException: No space left on the device! .... anyone any ideas where I'm going wrong?
Thanks man, its hard to find good quality LPs like these.
not working on Froyostone v1
I have the Sense version of froyostone running so no /lib folder...but the apk's installed fine. However, only Dandelion works, the rest "force close" (have done 3 reboots) immediately when trying to preview. I tried setting it anyway but it errors out when you go back home. Any ideas?

Can someone extract the modem.bin file. Maybe we will get lucky and we can get 3G and phone to work on the T-Mobile tab.

No visual changes and browsing speed is a lot better without Fc's or crashes.

I couldn't wait and flashed it too. Yep, faster web browsing, kinda like JM6. I'm excited. Can't wait for Gingerbread.
can this be flashed of JM6 or that JK7 firmware?

I don't think so as its an upgrade to a previous firmware but thanks to "AbuYeyah" here is a firmware that you can use with re-partition and PIT.1 and you are good to go with it,

pass= ce4arab.com
actually i got it to work with the original coming from JK7. i didnt partition. i dont every wanna partition again! so i just flashed it with heimdall and booted into recovery to wipe the data and restarted just fine. seems a lil faster now then JK7 but thats before installing any apps so im reinstalling them now and hopefully it will maintain its speed. plus its nice to have arabic text render properly.
I upgraded to JK2 (ROM in post 1) successfully in order to solve the following problems: no Market access, no Arabic support.
I managed to solve both after upgrading. However now I have new problems that I did not have before: no https, no Exchange Server connection, no PressDisplay (books and magazines) connection.
What should I do? Will upgrading to the new Arabic JL2 Rom help?
Thanks

1) Does this ROM support FULL Hebrew?
2) I have a Telstra Device - P1000 - Any special flashing instructions?
Thanks

GPS Won't Fix Location

Hi good people of xda.
I'm hoping someone out there can help me as I'm at the end of my tether.
I recently noticed that my GPS wasn't working whilst running Goldfinger v8.
So I tried all the usual fixes (tightening screws, faster fix, topNTP, changing csc) and nothing works. I flashed back to a stock unrooted 4.4.2 firmware for my location UK (BTU) via odin and that didn't work. I am currently running Goldeneye v49.2 as the last time i remember my gps working was on a much earlier version of that rom (v20 something) but it isn't available to download anymore so i thought i'd try the latest but to no avail.
Unlike others that seemed to report no satellites in view, my phone sees them but will not get a fix .
I have also never used a 4.4.4 rom as I know that can cause gps problems when reverting back to 4.4.2.

Here is my current setup from phone info
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Same problem here..help
I'm starting to think my gps is broken. If I put my phone in flight mode and open gps test it sees satellites but they are clustered in one direction
If I disable flight mode as soon as my phone connects to wifi I get a normal looking image.
I have tried so many stock firmwares, modems and cscs I've lost count. I've tried 4.4.2, 4.4.4 tw roms & 5.0.1 aosp and nothing is allowing me to get a gps lock. I haven't dropped my phone (much) and had what I'd call a heavy impact to have damaged the internal gps receiver/aerial so I'm really at a loss now. Looks like I'll be buying a new phone sooner than I thought

Saving problem after flashing Cyanogenmod 14.1 (Please help ASAP!)

Guys I wanted to experience a change from the typical stock so I decided to flash the cyanogenmod (official nightly build, for athene).. Experienced a few issues from the beginning (including audio stutter glitch) but managed to fix it after I googled quite a lot for the solution. However the new problem seems to be really annoying and makes me want to switch back to stock, but all the work I've put onto the installation and customization holds me back from doing so. Each time I open Pixlr (Image editing software) or Ringtone maker and edit a file and then try to save it.. I get an error and the file fails to save. This makes the whole app-using experience a waste so it would be a big help if any of you guys could help me out. Thanks

Try doing a reflash (clean) with Internal Storage wipe. It worked for me.

This will resolve your issue.
Thanks guys
Thanks a lot guys for all your suggestions. But is there any guarantee that this issue can be fixed by clean flashing the rom again? There is so much customization and data on the phone.. I didn't want to lose it with no positive result.

Backup is the 1st thing before you decide to use any custom roms. It's like a law
Use titanium backup for apps and twrp for whole backup of system and apps.

If root(SuperSu) is installed in system(most likely it is) it won't be gone when you do factory reset. And as long as you have TWRP recovery, you need only few clicks to get root.
I propably can't help you. But about my earlier post, make sure the changes you made to the "update-script" file are saved in zip. I once had same propblem and realized that changes weren't saved even though winrar said so.
