[Q] Not able to install big apps e.g. games - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Since moving from Android 10 to the open bèta's I have problems installing big apps, games and such. Did a factory reset and installed android 11 stable, but still the same. I saw that there were 2 internal storages and parallel storage (999). I'm using dualsim.
Anyone an idea or solution?

Out of Space ?

Hi all, recently I keep getting running out of space warnings.
16 Gb TF with 64Gb micoSD.
Have been using LiquidSmooth, EOS3 and Revolution 3.6 all give me same warnings, things like Downloads , Pictures , Movie and Music all stored on MicroSD.
It is only recently that this has happened and my thoughts were the updated apps are hogging memory or mounting points changed by an installation.
Anyone else noticed this
current free memory on internal storage is 508mb
Is there an app to resolve these issues ?
Look for an app called DiskUsage on the market. It will break down your disk space to see where it is being used. You can remove files directly but be careful.

First start with clearing out all your OLD back ups, install zip files, and see if that works. Worked wonders on mine.

Do a safe boot. Power up & hold the vol down key, once you see the first splash logo, all the way home.
But I think you need a RSD lite restore. LOOK around with a real browser. I posted a House of Moto link in the general forum. There is one "stock restore" in my stickys
FDR doesn't always clear all the data. Do like Avi said and do a complete restore. Also, the phone doesn't have a lot of memory, so get rid of any apps that you don't use. There's no point in having hundreds of apps if you never use them. I DL less than 20 apps on both my phones and most of them are for root functions and a few "useability" apps.
If you have any big games (like Gameloft and EA games for example), they sometimes use gigs and gigs of space so you don't even need very many apps to fill up your /data partition.
What I do is move the gigs of data off the /data partition and to physical sdcard using the Directory Bind app. You will need to be rooted to use the app.

[Q] Which rom based on these requirements ?

Hello all,
I love my 7105 but I have this HUGE problem with the CM nightlies I am using, the storage space is always to the max.
I have a 32g SD card and I can't install ANYTHING on it, I have a ton of games and they eat up all in the internal space
So I'd like a rom which allow me to either install the games or any program I want to the SD like it was possible on the older android versions, why the hell did google kill this great feature, I feel like I have an iphone when i get told it can't install or update because it's full.
Or if this is really not possible is there a possibility to mount some "internal" folder on the external sd card, i have tried folder mount to move real racing which is 3gigs by itself, it tells me all is done but the game is still on the inside card...
Thanks a lot for the help

How to fix Samsung Galaxy On7 storage problem?

Hello, i'm new to the forums so i apologize if i shouldn't be posting this here, but i need help.
I have a Samsung Galaxy On7 with Android Marshmallow 6.0.1. I was happy with the phone and liked everything it had to offer me, except for one critical flaw that is driving me nuts: IT'S STORAGE.
I started downloading my apps so i could transfer them to my 16Gb SD card, which i happily bought for the purpose of this new phone... But little did i know that simple storaging concept changed with Android Marshmallow (before this phone i've only used Lollipop and KitKat). Apps weren't automatically being placed in the SD card. Fine, i could move them myself anyway, right? But it only transferred about 10 or 15 Mbs... Useless. My phone was struggling after installing WhatsApp and Messenger just because i couldn't move them from the phone storage, and 5 out of 8 Gbs of phone storage were occupied by bloatware. I could just root it and delete those, but i use more than 8 Gbs anyway so i considered that option meaningless.
I naturally did research on what options i had to fix this. Tutorials listed an option which "merges" your SD card and use it as internal storage. Now God knows why Samsung decided to get rid of that option, i simply don't have it.
I figured i could install a Nougat ROM but i never installed a ROM before, and the fact that i have a Samsung might mean the problem still persists after that, so maybe i could just downgrade to Lollipop and problem solved. I just need to hear from someone it's going to work before trying it myself.
If there are more options i'd be more than happy to listen to them, i'm at the point where i can't update apps anymore, while i have 16 Gigs unused...
that's the sad thing about this device. it's internal storage is not much and it got some bloatware. I just stayed on minimal user installed apps. Also moving an app to sd card is reducing the apps performance.
Actually there's a solution for the merging SD storage with Internal storage problem. Although Samsung has disabled it there's a patch here in the Forum to bypass that.
Here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/patch-adoptable-storage-enabler-t3460478
I used it on mine and worked just fine.
One more thing. I actually opted for two solutions: (1) root and uninstall bloatware and (2) apply the patch through TWRP and merge the storages.
Good luck.

I highly recommend not doing it. I have rooted my Samsung on7 (G600FY) only to use this resource but it didn't work.
I could install the patch through TWRP but there were no options on Settings -> Storage -> Format SD as Internal. Only Portable Format was available. Then, after some searches I could do it with Root Essentials App, it did the trick but still all my apps were getting installed in the internal memory (even I did migration to SD), also it kept showing Full Storage messages like before (even tough there was more than 29gb free after the "merge").
Back to 0.
So is this topic is useless? It doesnt work?
If everyone tried and it still failed, why not closing this topic?
I was having same problem with this device. But now I have fixed it!
Before storage was 97% and I have only 2 apps: Mozilla FireFox and Samsung Max VPN.
And my all other apps and games were in SD card.
But now I have 88% storage (just reduced a good amount)
Its simple just open Settings > Applications > Applications Manager
Now pick those apps which you don't use them anymore. Like Chrome, Google Photos, Samsung Internet, GDrive, etc.
Select on those app and click on 3 dot > select "Uninstall Updates".
When you do this, the app will be uninstalled and replaced by factory version of app which is lower in size.
Just do these to apps like GDrive, GPhotos because you can access them on web too.

pop up low storage on shield Pro 2019

Hello, since a few days I have a message on the home page that tells me that my storage is full
I only have 12 applications installed for a total of 2.5gb, I emptied the cache of applications, but I have only 350mb of space left
So I have slowdowns and I can't install new apps
Any solution apart from resetting everything?
EDIT : since a while I lost 150mo I have only 200mo free even by emptying the cache, there is a problem
EDIT 2 : I lost another 50mo and nothing in the cache
Hi,
Had the same problem here. Deleting apps didnt help either.
Storage kept telling me i had several gigs of apps installed although i deleted everything.
I just now did a factory reset and space was recovered. fingers crossed.
I did all updates again abd instalkled all poreviously installed apps.
Also im on the beta firmware from Nvidia.
My thoughts are somewhere a program update messed things up ealier.
greets,
AJ
ok thanks, I think I'll have no choice but to do a reset
Still working here after the reset.
I think somewhere a program upodate messed something up earlier.
I made a post about this on reddit. 2017 shield, no Plex/Kodi etc. Started happening after the 9.0.1 update in May. Internal storage just slowly disappears (from 10 GB available/free to 150 mb). Factory reset is the only workaround - and yes I have checked every app including system apps, gallery, media, system upgrade apps etc etc. And this happens even If I use adoptable storage (which I don't need since my apps only consume about 0.93 GB and I don't need much free space - but this bug is horrible.
There are a few posts on reddit and a developer from nVidia that is interested in logs. Here is the most recent post.
