so i had about 120mb free internal storage on my galaxy y. after installing a few apps that i was just trying out my internal storage reduced to 20mb. no problem i'll just delete them... but after deleting the apps internal storage was only 33mb. doing some investigation i saw the data/ system data was taking up about 110mb (using diskusage app). trying to figure out the problem i deleted all apps linked to sd-ext. the internal storage remained around 35mb. i've tried a variety of apps like sdmaid, systemcleanup, root cleaner, clean master etc but none helped with my problem. even after using these said cleaner apps and deleting them after internal was reduced to 15mb. i manually went through every single folder in /data checking size of files but nothing suspicious. but system data was now 122mb (seen to be growing every reboot) and the system data folder is not accessible with any root browser apps.
i was trying to figure out the problem so i made a cwm backup when phone was low in storage (15mb free, avg), so if bootloop i had a backup of phone when internal storage was full so i could continue troubleshooting. bootloop was inevitable.
the strangest thing now is after restoring the same said backup where internal storage was full and rebooting i saw internal storage was now 140mb. i got back all of my internal space but how? is it the system data shown in diskusage is filled with "ghost" like files. i read somewhere that android keep a little bit of data of every app ever installed, even after deleting.
my question is, is there a apk or script to clean system data.
i dont want to have to backup and restore every few days. cause this is what worked for me to regain my internal storage.
i hope u all understand what i'm saying. thanks in advance.
Hello,
I was freeing up some space on my OP2 device as it was about 52GB Full of 54GB,
i deleted all not used and temp folders, i also found folder named sdcard and storage in same.
I opened them and both were empty, i deleted them as well and as i did that i got a error that it can not be deleted.
Then i just found that whole data on my cell is deleted, all the files and folders are wiped and those two as well.
Now i am asking that is their any way to recover my data, i.e all images, videos, pdf &docx files etc..
As this device can not be connected as a mass storage so that i can use any software on my pc to do so.
i have tried Disk Digger Pro version as well, but unfortunately no success.
Please guys please help me out to come out of this issue. All suggestions and solutions are welcome.
You can also share any paid add as i can buy it to recover my data, but i really need a helping solution.
Thanks in advance.

It's normal that all your documents, photos, messages, ets, have been deleted, as /sdcard is...your sdcard. And, well, no, I don't think there is any recovery options...
As long as your internal "sdcard" storage is not encrypted you should be able to just factory restore the phone back to full functionality. After that you should be able to connect phone as usb storage device to your PC and use standard undelete software to undelete your files, because factory restore doesn't actually format your internal storage, it only deletes the file index (FAT).

yes, but if he used the wipe function in TWRP, which use mkfs.ext4 (if I remember), do you think there is still a possibility for him to recover his data?
I'm not sure about it. But then again, I'd say that and testdisk/photorec is his last chance of restoring at least photos.
If this doesn't work, I'm afraid anything will work at all..

Sorry i guess no luck unless you see a recovery partition
Hello. After from some mistake, I formatted my internal storage via twrp. Now I want to recover the data which I had. The bad is that the device is connected to pc as MTP & NOT as Mass Storage so that to use some data recovery to get the lost data. I tried MTPdrive which is to convert the mtp to mass storage but not any result. I tried Mobisaver (Easeus) which is for recovering data from internal drive but appears the message error that can't get the root previlidges even if my mobile is recognised as rooted. Also I used the dr fone recovery but for similar reason with above it can't scann deep my device. The only solution which I have found but it is difficult to try it because it needs unix commands so that to get the internal storage as raw image & after to convert the raw to vhd & after to mount it as drive so that to been scanned via data recovery like recuva which is given in here : https://howtorecover.me/data-recover...hone-guide#raw or similar : https://roubert.name/joakim/androidfilerecovery/
The bad is that in these methods the unix commands are unclear & the most times you will get some error in the running of commands or the instructions will be unclear. Also I tried Partitions backup (apk) which can dump the internal as raw but althought has the option to save the dump image to external storage, it saves only to internal which is irrational because my internal storage is 64 Gb & can't be saved all this as img file to my internal due to low capacity & for some unknown reason the external storage save can not be selected. Does it exist some way to get the lost data back of internal storage or to connect my Mi A1 as mass storage or to dump my internal storage as raw ? Thanks.
If there is no backup of the lost data, first stop using it in case of data overwritten. Then try a third-party data recovery software to help you Recovery Data From Internal Memory. Usually, it can help us access to data like photos, videos, music and documents on internal memory of Xiaomi phone and scan them out. Then we can preview and choose them to recover at ease.
Hi there,
I am on lineage-16.0-20190918-nightly-klte-signed + open_gapps-arm-9.0-mini-20190921, it is a fresh install.
I have downloaded WhatsApp App from Google Play and I was prompted to recover my backup from Google Drive, when I click OK I get:
Not enough space
Couldn't restore messages. Free up 465MB of space on your phone's internal storage to restore.
Obviously, I have more than 11GB available in the internal storage and an almost empty SanDisk SD Card 32GB.
Now, I cannot find anywhere a solution for this issue.
Also, I copied both my 'Phone' and 'Card' folders on my PC (in addition to the GoogleDrive backup) before upgrading to Lineage, I see in both folders a 'WhatsApp' folder with 'backups' + 'database' + 'media' subfolders.
If I cannot restore the backup from Google Drive, how could I restore the same from my PC?
I tried to move the Whatsapp folder to my SD Card, but it does not look like it is enough to see the content in WhatsApp.
Thoughts?
Alex
I think I know why it does not restore my backup, I have realized that the 'Internal Shared Storage' is not accessible, let me explain...
In my S5, if I go to Storage >> Device Storage - I see 5.24GB used of 16.00 GB - however, if I take a screenshot and try to save it, I get:
can't save screenshot due to limited storage space
This is probably the reason why I get issues to restore my whatsapp backup.
If I connect the phone to my PC, I can see the Internal Shared Storage folder icon, but there is no value, I should see 5.24GB used of 16.00 GB - in fact I cannot save anything on it from my PC either.
How do I resolve this issue?
Bug?
Thank you,
Alex
Anybody??
Hi,
Brand new T510. I followed [GUIDE][SM-T510/T515]Unlock/TWRP/Odin HowTo/Root - Tab A 10.1 (2019) and successfully rooted the device with stock ROM and Magisk.
Then something strange happened. When I open My Files app, the internal storage showed about 10 folders with weird names, all empty. I deleted all those folders and it showed an empty folder. I then went on to install some apps.
However, I then realized that the internal storage is really not available in most of cases. My Files showed (17.56GB / 128GB) but when I tried to create a folder it will say "there is not enough space in internal storage. Delete some files and try again."
All the normal folders are not there, like Download etc.
What can I try to fix this?
Thanks

The data partition is encrypted and TWRP can't handle it. After flashing TWRP, you need to format the data partition by clicking Wipe and then Format data. When asked to verify, type "yes" and NOT just "y". After doing this, reboot to recovery and you'll see Internal Storage is no longer a "0".
Before doing any of this, be aware that formatting the data partition will erase EVERYTHING on it, including any saved pictures, movies, music and all apps. So be sure to back you data up to another device or the external SD card before you start.
Worked. Thanks
