The phone takes up 13GB of storage under "System" out of the box. Is this normal?
Will flashing GSI free up some of this space?
That's normal, it's A/B partition device after all.
No, flashing gsi will not freeing the space.

I used verygreen's size-agnostic installer with my 8GB SD card, and put CM7-107 nightly on it.
I ended up with the boot partition of about 100MB, two android partitions (one 450MB, the other 1GB), and the rest being "sdcard", around 6GB as FAT32.
I'd really like to take the 1GB android partition (my system stuff, and where apps are installed) and kick it up a bit in size, taking space away from the SDCARD partition. That way i have more room for app installs, etc.
I tried using EASUS Partition Manager, and while it'll let me take space away from the SDCARD/FAT32 partition, it's not letting me give it to any of the "other" (linux/android) partitions - doesn't give me an option to resize it, once I have unallocated space available on the SD card.
Any ideas? This is Windows 7 64bit, btw.
Hi,
I have a NAND ROM (EnergyROM) flashed to my EU-HD2.
In this the /data is mountet to internal Mem and /sd-ext is mountet to the ext3 partition on my SD-Card.
in /data there is a symlink app->/sd-ext/app. So i mean the internal memory is not used for installed apps because of the symlink. Apps should installed directly to SD-Card.
The total memory of /data is ~212MB
Now my question:
1) why show me the GUI an free internal memory of 99MB after install some apps, even through stored on /sd-ext/app.

reboot teh device, check again. when u install,. it knocks the space off teh internal mem, then adds it again after a reboot.
Now, after one day, the free space is at 119MB. I have nothing changed or rebootet.
Sometimes is waiting the best resolution

Hi Iknow plenty has been said about this subject but I have completed the following but still get message not enough space:
Partitioned SDcard
Downloaded both link2sd and Titanium backup
Moved and lnked all apps to sd
LINK2SD tells me only link2sd on internal
Power tuner working
Storage info as follows
INTERNAL total 146MB! used 128MB! Free 19MB
SD card 81% free
Sd partition 98% free
System 0% free, ROM takes this
Why have I only 19MB free on internal, does not make sense:
Total internal only includes the data partition, so let's say youflash a 300 mb system partition,that leaves 212 for the boot and recovery and cache and data partitions,meaning around 190 total internal storage.
i manage to restore my phone after bricking it. but now when i go to memory information i can only see 10gb of partition size. and there is an sdcard partioton of 8gb which i cant use.
Hi guys.
On my latest post I saw that I'm using LineageOS with encryption but I think that I have a problem.
I have 16Gb as internal storage and 32Gb SD card as external. I formated to use SD card as extended internal storage. On storage settings display correct 9Gb used from 43 Gb total storage, but ES File explorer and Windows 8.1 display that I have 4.95Gb used from 10.82Gb total storage.
How to I solve this? Thanks.

That's calculation of all partitions (system,, OEM, and many one)..
As you know from PC it shows 10GB total and in Screenshot (of storage) it's 14GB.. that means 4 GB is covered for System and other partition purpose (which is not calculated by PC and it cannot be used for user purpose), while you have used 4GB out of 10GB...
I hope i explained right..?
@____Mdd I also thought it was a miscalculation but is very strange, It is as if display only the internal storage and not SD card.
For me this is very strange.
