hi i just installs the performance clean rom and restored about half of my previous apps, and i am getting this message "Phone storage space is getting low",
almost all my apps are under 1mb.
what do i do to free up space?
i already cleared up cache and moved all that's possible to the sd card...(that has 6 gb free).

why don't u use any custom rom?
For more internal memory, create ext4 partition of ur SD card, for more details u can check indroid custom rom forum.
i did!
i installed Dharam_s Clean Performance ROM,
could you show me a link to the instructions for what you have suggested?

For example if u have a 4 GB SD card.
Create a FAT32 partition of space 3.1 GB
Create a ext4 partition of space 500 MB
Create a ext2 partition of space 100 MB
Do all these partition from ur pc using minitool 6 (to download just google)
After that, the process in indroid is very simple, u just need to convert the file system and u r done. Dont know about Dharam's rom but surely after the partition u need to run a script which u may ask from dharam.
Actually what happens, the ext4 partition works like internal memory and the apps present on this doesn't get mounted when u mount ur SD to pc. U can see these partition in titanium back up.
I would, however reccomend u to go for indroid custom rom.
can you give me a link to the indroid custom rom?
Here is the link for the Indroid XDA page.

You have to install v4.1 first!! Then you can install rest of the updates through CWM recovery.
I would recommend Kyrillos' ROM however. It gives more internal memory. Here is the link for Kyrillos' XDA page.

@Dhiren: have u used indroid, i tell u, its not that very fast but u get everything and if u r following the processes right, u won't get any lag at all. I m so so happy using it.
Yes. I have used Indroid. Yes its fast. And you can also apply lagfix accordingly. But currently I am using Kyrillos. Hey can you confirm how much internal memory you get in Indroid after partitioning SD card??

My internal memory shows 138 MB. Almost all the app i install, it goes to ext4. My fone is much stable now after this partitioning theme. Have to say, using ext4 on indroid is easier from others because of the inbuilt Indroid FSC.
Combination of Indroid 4.3 and Fugmod 2.4 beta3 kernal is awesome.
*dont use Advanced task killer, instead use "Auto Memory Manager" for better performance.
Oh ok. In kyrillos, internal memory is 187 MB after partitioning SD card. Kyrillos is pre lagfixed.
I've xcd35 also known as zte blade. I've not installed many applications, still I see only around 25MB free space in my phone memory
What can be the reason for this ?
Have you taken a lot of photos or videos possibly and are those not being saved on the SD card?
Yes, i did took many photos but they are on my sd card.
Still I don't know where did the space go.. can anyone help me in getting back my space ?
Maybe you should install some app such as file manager from market (I can't provide a link, search "file manager", it's the first result by rhythm software). Then go ahead and select "Storage analysis" after clicking menu. It'll do a complete scan of your phone+SD-card and then shows you the biggest space hoarders.
I installed file manager and it says following,
device total memory: 162.5 M
device free memory : 24.57M
sd total memory: 1.86M
sd free memory: 1.15M
Also, it gives the biggest space holders, but all those are in my sd (like one app tak 570+ MB and my documents take 33M, both are in my sd).
the list all space holders includes the folders in sd card only.. How do I see status of internal memory ?

The 162.5MB is the total internal memory available for your apps and their data. The 24.57MB is how much of that is free at the moment. When you move an app to the sdcard, some of it is left behind on the internal memory, so you can't get rid of all of it. You can increase the amount of internal memory available by creating an ext partition on your sdcard (though it looks like you only have a 2GB sdcard, so you wouldn't have much space left for music etc. on it) and then using something like darktremor a2sd to move your apps to the new ext partition. This works differently from the normal move to sdcard as it allows you to move the whole app so frees more space.
The other option is repartitioning the internal memory. This means you take some of the space from where the rom is installed, and add it to the data partition so you can make use of it. For this to work well you need to use/be using a custom rom as the stock ones wont fit in the reduced space.

This isn't really a long term solution. The dalvik cache is needed by the phone, so wiping it will only temporarily give you more space until the phone rebuilds it all once you use your apps again. The cache partition is separate from the data partition, so wiping that would make no difference to how much space you have available.

Which ROM you are working on? It seems like you have stock ROM as you are unaware of CWM. If you are using stock rom, you need to switch to any custom rom to flash darktremor a2sd so that you can partition you sd card and install applications on them. You can get complete tutorial on installing CWM and custom rom from cyanogenmod website. You can uninstall bloatwares if there any to free your phone memory.

You need to root and install a custom rom to partition both internal as well as external memory efficiently. You can flash darktremor a2sd script that allows you to install apps on partitioned sd card to your rooted stock rom but it won't work (didn't work for me).
Almost all the custom rom come with darktremor a2sd pre-installed on it. So it is advised to switch to any custom rom. But beware, both rooting and installing custom rom will void your warranty. Once you install a custom rom, i'm sure you will love it.
You can find guide on partitioning internal memory on the following links
h**p://android.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/
and here
h**p://android.modaco.com/topic/337426-gen1gen2partition-layout-tool-windows-only/
But i personally won't recommend partitioning you internal memory as the following ICS rom uses the default like partition.
You can follow the following link below to root and flash cyanogenmod
h**p://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=ZTE_Blade
If you find rooting steps given in the guide difficult you can install z4root from following link and install it on your phone to root the phone easily.
h**p://www.4shared.com/file/TA3fZuTc/z4root_zte_blade_permanent_roo.html
Once you install cyanogenmod install "ROM MANAGER" from market and there you will find the option to partition your sd card.

You can partition the sdcard from ClockworkMod recovery, which you need to flash the custom rom or the darktremor scripts to make use of the ext partition. Some roms come with it pre-installed, others you have to flash it separately.
You can repartition the internal memory by TPT or Windows flasher. TPT is the easier and safer method. From your internal memory stats you posted earlier, it looks like you are stock Gen 2, but download the Mr Pigfish app from the market to check.
If it says you are Gen 1, then you can use one of wbaw's TPTs from his thread on here, or you can use them from my app. Once you use one of these, you will be converted to Gen 2 as well.
If you are Gen 2 already then you are most likely stock Gen 2 and will need to use the TPT's from my app (choosing the stock Gen 2 option when it starts), from the thread I made on here, or by using the Windows flasher.
Here's a tip that I just recently discovered.
Since apps that are flashed in your rom (like Market) cannot be deleted in a conventional sense, a duplicate of the app is created whenever they are updated. I found an app called apps2rom that moves the updated version to the rom, and deletes the old version.
I got a good 10mb from that.
Hello everyone! Yesterday, I tried to flash the new ICS CM9 and I did it. It is laggy and I can t install GAPPS.Then i saw that my system partition is 160 mb instead of 215 (recommended).
So, how can I change my system partition from 160 to 215 ? (I tried some TPT Gen2 tutorials, but nothing).
Thanks!

ok first go to market and download tpt helper.
then choose make your own tpt fill chache as 20 mb system(dont make it less it is recommended to use 20 mb on ics) as 210 mb(or as per ur choice but not less) and rest will be system.then click ok.
it will download the tpt and edit it accordingly.then check it it should have from the app there should be 10/12 matches.
then reboot.
press menu+power+vol up then green text fill flash and tpt will start on its own.
if there is a error at 99% down worry wait and then it will be success.
u r done.
just remember to have a rom on your sd.
there will be other options like choosing splash screen, recovery etc choose accordingly in the app.
u can even use your nandroids.
remember to delete image folder from sd after flash to prevent flashes by mistakes.
u r done enjoy
thanks saaransh9 i also want this info, voted up
sorry, but my number of matches is 1/1 .It is all right?

Hi to all, I am new at all this android stuff, so I hope you won't laught, but I have few questions.
1.Is there a way to change size of partitions without flashing new rom?
2.How big the partitions should be (System, Data, Cache) ?
According to "Blade Checker" I have European ZTE Blade 512MB, Gen2 phone, also it said that I have to use image.bin style TPTs.
Curent partitions are:
System 220MB
Data 160MB
Cache 37MB
It is running CM 7.1 stable mod and Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.0.2.0

1. No,you cannot.
2.Your partition size is more than enough for any new ROM's. Minimum System partition size varies accordings to different ROM's. Minimum data is according to your needs for app storage. Minimum cache is 20mb,but keep in mind you can't download anything from market/play over 20mb. So cache decides your temporary market storage.

Would one of thos things help?

-partition SD card
-select size. recommended 1gb
-select swap size as 0. Select 32 if u use it for gaming
-reboot
-install s2e

If you changed your partition sizes, your rom and all your data would be wiped. If you made a backup before, you could restore it afterwards as long as it could fit in the new sizes (eg. if your rom took up 160MB in system just now, and you changed system to 170MB then it would fit so you could restore it, same for other partitions).
Size for the partitions depends on what rom you are wanting to install. Some like Swedish Snow can fit in 128MB system, others like the ICS ones need ~180MB or bigger.
As your current layout is big enough for any rom out now, you'd be better making an ext partition on your phone and using that. S2E from Google Play works well with CM7 and lets you move most, if not everything, on the data partition to the ext partition. Its usually best just to move apps, but it means you can have loads of space. You can choose the size of ext partition depending on how big your sdcard is and how much space you need.

2MB is the minimum for cache. You can redirect the market downloads to data/ext partition/somewhere else, so you can download any app you like. Most roms do this automatically if your cache partition is small. By making it bigger than 2MB, you are either wasting the extra space if its still small enough to be redirected, or you are restricting the size of apps you can download if its too big to be redirected.

Question I have now is should I copy all the things from PC back to SD and where.

That's because ColdFusion didn't have the redirect script added yet. If you add that, then 2MB is fine for it as well.

I think creating the ext partition formats the whole card. If you plug your phone into your pc and turn on usb storage, you should see it appear with ~1.5GB space. You can copy all the stuff back onto there and it should work again. You might have to reinstall the apps that were moved to the sdcard, don't know if just copying them back will work.

Have one more question, if you all don't mind
I know that these questions sound stupid, but as I said, I'm new to all of this and have a strong will to learn.
Is it possible to switch this card with bigger one I have, without flashing ROM again?
If it is, I would apritiate If someone could point me to some guide, because I presume it is not easy task and I think I bothered you enought already.
If it isn't possible, can I then format new card on my PC,copy ROM on it, partition it from CM recovery and then install ROM and all of the apps?
Thx again
hello. i upgraded to 4.3 MJ8 firmware yesterday. although my internal storage should be empty as you can see from the attached 2 pictures i only have 1GB left. not sure what system data is (shown in attachment diskusage) but its taking lots of space, although its shown in green.
attachment storage shows a big grey bar for empty space but below shows only 0.88 GB free space.
i have uninstalled all the bloatware with TB so i dont think its that.
also i wiped all data before flashing the MJ8 FW. Any advise on what is wrong and how i can regain some space back? thanks.:good:
forgot to add that i have flashed 3 files. PDA, modem and CSC. the MJ8 files were located in this thread but OP has removed them .

disclaimer: not responsible for any data loss or whatever issues you might do to yourself and no, this will not increase the total size of your sdcard space (which on the 32gb model LG G2 is 25gb)
I've just had an issue where my storage space just wouldnt add up and it bothered me
situation:
"SD card" size: 25GB
actual data on sdcard "16GB" (check with x-plore or any prefered file manager
free space: in my example it was just 2.8Gb
i checked my /data size and it was about 3gb.
so i was missing about 3-4GB of space.
solution for my situation:
check /data/media/obb
here i had large files from 1 current game and games i've allready uninstalled.
these files were obsolete in my case. I dont know how this happens, maybe it happens when switching roms. but if you feel you got some space missing its definetly worth a check.
On my nexus7 the /data/media/obb and /sdcard/Android/obb are linked and show the same content.. dont know why it is not so on the g2.
note: this files presist also when doing full wipes (if you dont wipe internal storage) because recoveries like TWRP skip /data/media folder because it has references to the sdcard.

I just explained. Check if you have stuff in /data/media/obb. If you have, you probably shouldnt have. Try and delete and check if that app still works.

OK so I'll just have to go through with a fine comb and match files and delete ones that shouldn't be there basically right... My question is the g2 comes with 32gb storage. I am using cm11 and I deleted the stock backup.. Where is all that extra space lol..

no you wont get any more than 25gb, because the rest is mounted on /system which doesnt change size when you install diferent rom.
in my example i had 1.5Gb file from fifa14 in /data/media/obb and also in /sdcard/android/obb i deleted the one in /data/media/obb and fifa still runs fine. the other files 2GB in size, were from games i've uninstalled or didnt install on the new rom. maybe its left overs from swiitching roms... anyway.. i got my space back.

I understand what you're saying and I am glad that you got your space back but what I am saying is I am running cyanogen mod and it is about 400 megabytes total.. I deleted the 3gb of stock ROM... Where is my extra space.. See what I mean lol.. Its because of the partition..I just need to figure out how to re divide up that space

I dont think you can. Especially not with a locked bootloader. I know it was possbile to do this on my old HTC, but right now on the LG G2 is not.
you have your extra space on /system .... if its any use of you
