[Q] Android memory issue topic

I have a Galaxy S duos 2 (GT-S7582) and im having what i think is a bug
My phone currently has 1.2gb/2.0gb free internal memory and 2.8gb/64gb sd card but still it refuses to install one specific apk(any other that i try installing works fine)
apk has 4.0mb and i had it installed a while ago so i pretty sure it ins't a memory shortage.

any help appreciated

[Q] Memory: how change partitions? topic

Hi all,

I wanted to ask if it was possible to change the memory partition (I'm using CM11 if it's important).

My idea:

• Primary partition for system, apps and data --> 20GB


• Emergency partion for .zip to flash or backup --> 2gb

Is it possible?
How can I do?



Thanks for your time :)

Apps in internal memory or sd card? topic

Hi!


I see that some of the apps are in sd card (application manager -> sd card). But I didn't move thwm there.


1. How Android decides what apps where should be installed?


2. Are there any downsides installing apps to sd card? Except the fact that apps won't be available when sd card is removed.

3. Will progress of my games and settings of my apps will be saved in sd card after apps are reinstalled after factory reset?

Thanks!!

ZTE Blade V880 Questions on Gen2 and internal memory topic

Hi everyone,

My brother still uses his ZTE Blade 1 (The original one with the OLED Display) and is still very happy with it. But he has 2 concerns: 1. The phone got a little bit slower 2. internal is always full

So I checked it out and it still uses a custom rom called Japanese Jellyfish RLS 9 (Android 2.2) and it has Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.8 installed.

My plan was to update to a stable and newer rom and to edit the vold.fstab to swap internal to external (a 16gb sdcard).

But I don't have any clue, it is very hard for me to find the correct resources. So I assume this Blade is still Gen1, what are the best steps to update to Gen2, while maintaining all the Data like whatsapp history and so??

Also which is the most stable, fastest and newest ROM for the Blade? It doesn't need fancy features, it should just be fast so he can keep on using it as his main phone

Also his current fstab looks like this:

Code:

---

## Vold 2.0 Generic fstab
## - San Mehat (san@android.com)
##

#######################
## Regular device mount
##
## Format: dev_mount <label> <mount_point> <part> <sysfs_path1...>
## label        - Label for the volume
## mount_point  - Where the volume will be mounted
## part        - Partition # (1 based), or 'auto' for first usable partition.
## <sysfs_path> - List of sysfs paths to source devices
######################

## Example of a standard sdcard mount for the emulator / Dream
# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device
#dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

## Example of a dual card setup
# dev_mount left_sdcard  /sdcard1  auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1
# dev_mount right_sdcard /sdcard2  auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.3/mmc_host/mmc1

## Example of specifying a specific partition for mounts
# dev_mount sdcard /sdcard 2 /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0

[Q] Swap internal and external memory on P6 topic

Help!
I'm running out of memory on my phone!
I only have like 400 mb available on my internal memory but nearly
28 gb on my SD card. But despite that the asks well not download onto that
and I've moved all the "movable" apps into the SD card. So here's the question:
Does anyone know how to make the phone "think" that the external SD card is the internal memory and the provided 4 gb that you can use is the external.
Thanks in advance.

Soft Bricked my phone, Wiped internal memory topic

Hi,

I was trying to flash cloudy g3, I put in all the files necessary into the phone, went to the recovery and wiped everything including internal memory.

Now I am stuck as I cant transfer anything into my phone.

PC doesn't recognize it, so I can't use adb sideload.
I can get into download mode and recovery

I tried using OTG but TWRP won't mount it.
I tried using back to stock method but since the computer doesn't recognize it, there is no way to do that.

Please help

Android Bug? More memory used than available. Not enough space error. KitKat. topic

Hello, this is really bugging me, I was hoping to have 8GB memory for apps and 32GB on my SD for obb's and stuff like that but Android 4.4 has the useless virtual SD card feature so the internal storage quickly fills up.
As far as I know, there is no app in the Google Play store that installs itself on the external SD card. But I read that you can copy the maps from TomTom to the external SD card to the Android/data/ folder. So I did that and it worked, freeing up allmost 3gb of internal storage space on my phone (Good news till here). But with the time the internal storage filled up and I reached a moment that I couldn't even update any app because Android was telling me that I don't have enough space. I looked in Settings > Storage and there was still 600MB free internal space, but the Applications bar was overflowing the graph as if there were no more space left.
Here is a screen shot [Note: Apps are taking more space than internal space is available?]:


I guess that this is what is causing the wrong "Not enough space" message. Clearing the cache from Google Services and Google Play Store sometimes helps if there is still more than 600 MB left, but now I'm completely stuck with 480MB and I cannot even update a 6MB app.

Does somebody know how to fix this? Is it me or every new Android version that comes out is just a worse better looking crap..?
Greetings.
INFO: I haven't rooted anything on my phone so everything is just stock.

[Q] Still memory management problems? topic

I would like to buy this phone for my dad. My dad has 2 SIM cards (private and work) so this dual sim phone could be useful to him, but I am a bit worried after reading about the Memory management problem when the phone shuts down apps by itself.

Should I avoid this phone?

Device Memory running low in the first days ZTE mini topic

Hey,

After having the device for a few days, I received a notification that the device storage was almost full. I realised that this was true and I placed some applications in the internal storage.

However, still the device storage doesn't have much capacity and many applications cannot be moved. It's 6.58 gb with runntime space 4.12 and apps 1.8gb already.

Does this happen to everyone or it has to do with my rom?

And can I do anything? Because soon it will be again full, I guess.

Thanks

Huge memory usage by system processes? topic

Apps are being killed frequently on my Nexus 9, so I would like to see why.
My HTC One (m7) also has 2gb of ram, but it does not have similar problems. Both of them are running stock Android 5.0.1, and their screen sizes do not differ that much (1920x1080 vs 2048x1536, or ~2m vs ~3m).
From process stats, Nexus 9 is often in the low/critical state. On the other hand, m7 usually stays in the normal state.
From 'dumpsys meminfo':
Nexus 9:
269537 kB: system (pid 449)
192552 kB: com.android.systemui (pid 621 / activities)
138167 kB: surfaceflinger (pid 149)
m7:
121931 kB: system (pid 686)
77821 kB: com.android.systemui (pid 30084 / activities)
5709 kB: surfaceflinger (pid 263)
I'm just curious that why these system processes are using much more memory on Nexus 9? Maybe something related to the Tegra K1 chipset?

[Q] Nexus 5 (32gb) Mobile Internal Memory Storage 0mb topic

Hello,
Today I woke up to my phone boot-looping after leaving it to charge overnight, despite it having run fine for close to a month (I have been running Cayanogen Mod ROM and TWRP 2.6.4.3 since I got my Nexus 5).

After a long wait at the Google and Nexus logos, there's a system popup of 'Cayanogen logo" present on the screen. However, right after completing the 'updating of apps', the system popup 'Media Storage has stopped working' appears and the phone immediately restarts again.

Upon booting into TWRP, it presents me with a password screen, which I have never encountered before. After pressing 'Cancel' though, I'm directed to the TWRP main menu.

Attempts to factory reset the phone resulted in:
Formatting cache using make_ext4fs function.
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
Updating partition details...
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
E: Unable to mount '/persist'
E: Unable to mount storage.
Then i am using Nexus Root Toolkit and all are option i am going but nothing to do..
So please Watch this Video and Solved My Problem Please.. Please...
All are Process i am apply...Please developer help me......
