If you have 12 GB what's the problem no files are left behind when you flash ROMs 12gb is normal for a 16 GB nexus

You could try the below app to see where the storage is being used up.

Well used it and it said one folder was 3gb and stuff

Sometimes when you flash ROMs the tablet gets confused as to how much memory is available I've heard of it plenty times when going back to stock usually a factory reset or if that doesn't work reflashing the ROM. You need to get the tablet to reevaluate how much storage it has. It currently thinks it a 16gb version.

Might I suggest that future inquiries for your device should be directed to the 2013 forums so that you don't get the wrong information considering the 2 devices are so different from each other

So you would be OK if this person took some advice from you specific to the 2012 and applied it to their 2013 model? And if it bricked it?

Considering that this person only asked about how to free up space on his Nexus, I doubt that would have happened. Of course I would have offered direction to the proper forum if it was something critical. I didn't find it surprising at all that after a few members jumped in to help, your post had be the one letting him know that he shouldn't be in this thread, nevermind any advice on his issue. But it seems that every time I run into one of your posts, it is almost never helpful yet very terse and usually rude. Most of your answers are either about the member being in the wrong sub forum or that they didn't read the changelog. It's almost like spam being posted over and over.

I made a thead about this in the general section I think we need to change the forum title. Not much danger in this case but a 2012 ROM or kernel on a 2013 device would be a pain in the a$$ to fix.

My point exactly.
If we were to wait to inform the op that he was in the wrong forum until after he had done something like that, it would have been irresponsible of us to not head him off at the pass and try to prevent such a thing.
There was nothing rude in this thread until someone wanted to play keyboard cowboy because they had a grudge against me.

Let's just try and be polite to each other @Pirateghost is correct I should have pointed out he was in the wrong forum before giving advice.

In the future you might notice as you are actually typing the subject out it will auto-guess other topics that are similar to yours. Additionally, you might spend more than 5 seconds looking at the general section
also if it helps there's a bug thread here http://code.google.com/p/android/is...rd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars for sdcard issues being read only etc.

The main thing it's done for mine is just made it far smoother and less lag ridden. Couldn't really give a crap about new features, it's just better at what it was already good at.

Does anyone know which rom included cornerstone?

To all developers
I think cornerstone is the most important feature in tablet that distinguish tablet from our smartphones
So, could anyone can build cornerstone into a customed rom
And the code is opened for everybody

Not really a helpful response is it? It would have been better just to ignore.
You could try the Android Development forum.
Cornerstone roms are typically done by Team EOS, but I don't know that they've done one for the nexus.
It's not really all that helpful though when I've tried it. I prefer just using the recent apps button.

Huh? It was a comment on how many people ignore the rules of this forum and how its getting a little out of hand..
Anyways now that this is in the right section, I believe cornerstone is a dying effort since it doesn't seem to be very well optimized, i think it needs to be restarted from the ground up, also noting that the original team seems to have abandoned jt
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
So cornerstone has to be abandoned.
Does anyone know that is it possible to work like the multi screen function of Note 10.1?
It should be helpful that tablet can have a real multitasking function.

Pls delete.

After a lot of searching and reading i found the answers i needed about the padlock bootscreen thanks to the developers that got it.

If this is an old topic sorry but I do not have time for read all related treads.
This is what's happened,
Rooted ATT S4, installed twrp 2.5.0.2,
Installed Sho 1.5, used Loki doki
I was getting the costum screen with the padlock warning when booting. All was well.
Decided to try beta 4.3 rooted, now the padlock screen is gone and I get regular boot screen. Download screen says Samsung official.
I'm still rooted and booting OK.
Uninstalled and installed clean rom ,
Flashed lokidoki, still rooted and boot screen still stock.
Is this normal?
If this is in the wrong place pls move it and if this s old news delete it.

Umm not trying to be a total **** but really? There is a sticky at the top that is literally the second item on the page that says Flashing a factory image with fastboot/return to stock. Not to mention the 100 other threads asking the same question
Sounds like the time for upgrading. PA 3.94 was just released so download it and flash away. It is 4.3 and runs great and also has Halo and Pie toolbars! Much better than AOSP 4.3! Check it out in the forums for directions.

It really doesn't matter what forum you frequent. If you are an XDA user you have agreed to search before starting threads. You would also know how the forum works and what happens when you ask a question that's covered 150, 000 times in the forum.
Please don't try and use some weak 'noob' excuse. You have been an xda member long enough to know better.

It can flash stock 4.2.2, unroot, relock the bootloader, whatever...

Why not ask in that specific thread?
Because it's more likely to get a wider audience as a new thread, if you have no input, why comment?

I had a very clear input for you - that you should ask in the specific thread for that ROM.

Let me rephrase that - since I have no idea about your specific ROM I can not say if it is a problem very specific to that or if you are another clueless guy who did not care to read the rules of this forum starting with the first one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=2494
Maybe I am clueless, maybe I don't spend enough time trolling other peoples posts? If you've nothing constructive to offer then why bother? Asking why I've asked the question is totally irrelevant if I've already asked it! Don't you have some star trek annuals to alphabetise or something?
And yes I did read the rules, but like most people on here I'm not infallible, is forgetting a simple rule a hanging offence? The problem here is someone with nothing better to do than pick up on others mistakes! A petty one at that.. If I wanted trolling I'd of asked on twitter, seems I made the mistake of thinking most people on here were helpful rather than critical..
Use uTorrent, I see you are using the Vuze client which causes issues with some models.
aTorrent is the best client by far!
