I'm trying to make rom slots on safe strap, but I do not have enough space on my internal memory. I have all my pics and music on my external SD card. Can someone please tell mw what the 6.41GB of misc files are? I have tried to delete several of them, only to have them come back, and I cannot clear my cached data or downloads....

How much free space do you have on internal?

Under storage it says 5.84 GB
The video said to have the system size set to 3000
the data size set to 3000
and the cache size to 300
how much room do you think I need for a rom slot? I've never used safe strap before. I like the idea of being about to switch back and forth between roms...... I just want to make sure that I am doing it right

You can lower the data to 2000

Since i've had my Wizard, i've installed just about every single app on the storage card, but for some reason now when installing apps i keep getting a storage error, and that there is not enough space. My storage memoery say it has about 6mb free, which i guess is low, but i dont undertsand why this would be filling up?
I have tried to run a search on the large files, but these file are on the storage card? so i dont understand why the phone would complaining about this?
anyway to resolve this?
with some apps, you say to put it on the card but it still put some files on the PPc too, sorry there is no way around this, they just have to run part of it from the PPC
Don't forget that messages, attatchments and PIE cache take up space on the onboard storage, by default.
Thanks, i cleared the PIE cache which has made a big difference. Is there no software available that will tell us which apps are taking up so much space?

If you look here. This tweak program will let you store the IE cache on your storage card.
Also, in your email settings you can tell it to store attatchments on the storage card too.

The strange crap:
I take a photo, while I do it, somebody sends an sms.
I make it "save as read".
I finnish photo.
ALL OF THE sudden my internal STORAGE DROPS by
10MB!
I mean I have 10MB less....
And no, it's not the photos stored internally.....
Have you got any clue WHY??!!
How long was that SMS?
Haha, good one.
It was a new Murakami novel in sms form.....
But seriously I'm concerned!
What would instantly fill 10MB of storage?
Is there any log which would be so big??
cache? sms(lol)?, photo? Maybe just something in the background and it will come back later?
Well I also rebooted my X1 after that.
Didn't help.
Sms no as well as photo....
I will go through the folders...
Well, the Programs memory didn't change.
Just Storage.
Soooo strange.
Never happened before.
Listen I think it could be that when you have the camera turned on it caches everything if captures in a temporary folder even if you're not actually taking a picture. This can quickly be 10 MB. And it doesn't delete afterwards because ther SMS interrupts. So ceck your temporary folders and empty them. It sounds strange but it would be one possible explanation.
Maybe you default allocation unit size is like really high, the more stuff you put in your card, the more extra data it will take from your sd card. But the high the unit size the faster.
I am not tech geek so I am not sure if I am correct.

Lol you are correct, you mean Clustersize. But WTF 10 MB Cluster is impossible And I think he was talking about internal memory, not card storage.
Extreme thanks for replies!
Yes I will check my temp folders however I checked some of them and there are not many new files there, nothing big....
Of course I meant internal memory (not programs either).
I'll just add it never ever happened before.
You know, 10MB is ALOT.
Even the pics I took at this time were smaller in whole.
Really strange.
But by the way through walking through menus I moved 50MB
of preloaded films and music to sd card (I thought it was on card).
So I gained 50MB
GOT IT!
So,
MyDocuments/UAContents/MMSLog
a file:
mm1_wsp_wtp_2.log
9.8MB
Can I delete it?!
Lol.

Well just because I'm not aware what's that
I assume it's something like an invalid log?

I've moved all my apps th at I can to the SDCard but I'm still low on storage.

You can't "get more internal storage". Try deleting some stuff though to free up more space, your one and only solution

Yea that's what I meant. Wasn't there something where you could move the dalvik cache to the SD card to free up lot of space?
Hmm yeah but moving the Cache to a slow Storage Card basically defeats the point of having cache.... Also I know a few people who have done it have ended up with unstable phones.
It would free up alot of space but its whether you wanna risk having to hardreset your phone if all goes tits up
Here is the Cyanogen How-To on moving the dalvik cache, im not sure how up to date it is though -->

google earth installed? at 20+mb maybe remove it (until it's able to be moved to SD card), you got maps anyway

I got google earth on the SD card.
I found my web browser eating a ton of data that it stores. If you clear it fully, it frees up around 10mb or more, depending on how long since you did it last, but be careful. It's very possible to delete your bookmarks and other important data depending on how you delete it.

Using Froyo's method? That moves like 4M of 20M for Google Earth.
If you want more space, you'll want to use the old apps2sd method, which moves EVERYTHING.

Oh I see. If I were to use the old method then tried restoring my apps would they automatically reinstall even if I wiped the ext2/3/4 partition?
My nexus 4 started giving me insufficient storage complaints today as a tried to load an app that I'm writing onto it from Android Studio. It reads as having 422 Mb available, but I can't even load DiskUsage (155 Kb) onto it to see if the data page in settings is wrong. Is it possible that when Android Studio loads a new debug instance of an app onto my phone it doesn't delete the old one? Or is it a glitch with 4.3 on my N4? Help!
the system needs there to be 500mb or so free at all times. this space is reserved for caches and such, so your device can function properly. at your point, i bet you arent even connecting to googles servers(gray bars instead of blue). uninstall some apps or clear some storage space, your choice.

i believe that it holds some paid apps, or apps with a certain security(i could be wrong here. it used to hold apps that were installed in the sd instead of system, but we dont have to worry about that now).
I have a little over 30mb left on a internal memory and i can't download or even run some of my apps any more, it keeps telling me not enough space or storage is running out evwn though i have about 53gb on my ext.sd. I have tried moving apss to ext. infact most of my apps show as copied to ext. but i still have this problem. Anybody has any idea what i can do ?

Go into settings/storage and look at the coloured breakdown of how the data is being taken up - are apps still the main culprit?

Sounds like some of the apps you have moved to the microSD card have only partially moved their data. Perhaps if you go through each app which has a large amount of data and see exactly where its data is located you may get to the bottom of things. In the past i've noticed that some games that have a large amount of data only more a proportion of it to the MicroSD card (from memory i think NOVA might be like that).

I found Fifa 14 and NFS most wanted each had over 1gb on internal SD, I've deleted them but now the games don't work. At least I have some free space and I can always reinstall when I figure out what's happening. Thanks.
