Not 100% sure, but if you are rooted, do you have a backup from before the update was downloaded?
If so, just restore that and you should be OK.
if not, then someone else needs to HELP not complain, this is a legitmate question.
ps, always i recomend link2sd.....see the app on the market and follow the instructions, all apps (including widgets) can be stored there so no more issue with internal memory

Anything with a name like fw?
Why not backup your apps factory reset then restore, that will get the space back I couldn't find the file when this happened to me either, but when i clicked to install it downloaded again so it may not be on the phone and your just low on space in which case link2sd is the better option, although if your on pure stock you could root and use systemcleanup that can recover a fair bit of space

hmmmz never thought of L2sd (might give a try)
well modified stock (some bloatW removed n stuff like that)
lemme post a pic of the zips i found
https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/shared/screenshot_2012-04-26_1605.png?w=0519df3b

ok done formatting sd card (2nd partition) but either im stupid or L2sd doesnt move stuff

Why don't you just update your phone to .62 firmware? Don't worry you'll not loose your ROOT, any application or personal data

did you grant su access and did you partition your sd card? or your kernel did not support sd ext.

Those 168mb represent the internal storage, not the external one (SD-card).

Sorry then...
Yes, your free internal memory is normal, cheap phones have very small storage space. You can root and use a root uninstaller to delete system apps you don't use in order to free more space.

That is where all the apps installed to SD (the native Froyo way) go. PC Suite can be downloaded from their web (the application is horrible, BTW) and no, system applications are not installed there at all.
Ok...so wat are the changes or advantages of 10e over 10c???& how to start with using market place???

By the way you keep asking stuff, its seems like either you're a lazy guy, or your search function does not work. You can find out about such trivial things like using Android Market or finding your apps and games yourself! All of these questions have already been asked before.

[SCRIPT]Ram Optimization Script

First:Credits to Juwe11
Check out this RAM Optimising Script.
I flashed this script and now my phone is a lot smoother.All the little things such as opening/closing keyboard,scrolling and switching between open apps is faster.Tested with Xgin 5.3
To use this script
1.You will need to have cwm recovery-available with minicm and xgin with dual recovery mode(afaik)
2.Download Juwe_RAM_Script-CWM.zip from last post of this page.
3.Flash in cwm recovery
Post your experience in this thread
Devs if you and everyone experiences better results,you should include this in roms
Could u create with xrecovery too? For kuyo rom
Sent from my X8 using Tapatalk
after i flash at cwm,how can i know does it works ?
anyway to check ?
i've tested it..nothing change...i dont see any difference..tried in xgin5.3
Sorry but i don't know how.
If devs find these useful,they might include this in their roms.
If you went to link the you can try the second method mentioned there.
Unpack Juwe_RAM_Script.zip ,copy the file into /system/etc/init.d/ using rootexplorer or like and restart. That should do it.
Just tested and can't see any changes really and quadrant score didn't change it just went from 1063 to 1065 :/

Look to /system/etc/init.d/ if there is file named S97ramscript
I think that there is wrong mountpoint in updater-script (X8 has different mountpoints)
Strange,it definitely helped me.
Keep an eye out ,try apps which used to lag before.

Right I manually installed it. Not really convinced it does a lot. Quadrant score went from 1065 to 1079. Not really a big enough difference to confirm that it works but it doesn't slow it down so you might as well flash :L

Yea I agree with that. Start up is much smoother than before.
I read somewhere that more memory is bad on an Android system. I mean they wrote that if you have low memory free, then the android cached what you will need = faster system. Am I right or wrong?

Porting ROMs from other devices?

I asked this over in Android General and I was pointed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
Could anyone confirm if this would allow porting of a ROM like HTC Sense to the Xperia?
I posted this here as I reckon that if it is indeed possible, it could be of some use to the dev community in here. If not, mods can delete this
Our phone only has 480mb internal storage.
HTC Sense is well over 1gb just for the ROM.
Sent from R800x
that's wron
a normal sense 4.0a rom needs 420mb system partition
our is only 300mb.
so we need to decrease the zip (remove apps) and move some apps to /data in zip.
then symlink /data
and then we can go porting it
I would use a Sense 4 rom , I'm going to mess around later lol.

Remember, you can only use a ROM for a device on the same Arm as Xperia Play.

Sorting out permissions on the HTC One S Cyanogenmod ROM. Hopefully, with some luck, I should be good to go by the end of the night
Crossing my fingers I dont get some kind of catastrophic brick haha
Moment of truth guys
I'll report back if anything works....I hope *gulp*
Stuck at kernel :S
I'll keep trying though
can you upload your current version?

I know what the error is. I need to jump into Linux to unpack the kernel and edit the init.rc file (Only possible on Linux).
Going to flash back to MIUI temporarily to move the files onto my SD card to shift them onto Linux. Going to do that a bit later on as Im going to be a bit busy. If I get anything working I'll PM you and Dropbox the ROM for you to try If all comes back working, I'll release it to the general users
This will hopefully be my first ROM development
Tried again and can't get past the kernel screen.
Back to the drawing board. Gonna try a Samsung CM7 build now
Having no luck with this. Any devs with more knowledge than me feel free to take over

miui arc rom should boot when you edit all the audio libs (in /lib/hw the first 4 files and in /lib all files with libaudio...)
don't need to edit the rest to get it booting

[Q] ON ICS Remove bloatware, but can't find APK

I have some bloatware i wanna remove, like 'Lets golf hd, 'fun&downloads' and a couple of more.
But it seems like i Titanium backup cant find the apk's. I run ICS 4.0.4 rooted and unlocked bootloader, and use explorer to system dir, looking through 'system/app' No apk's
But if i look on 'vendor/app' i see the apk's there. So i copied the apk's to 'system/app', but no luck
What is wrong here?

Thanks, helped a little bit. But not totally. Some progs are back after reboot. And if i wanna restore them and place them on SD they stop working.
But Still i wonder what is wrong here? Why is it like this? Some screw up from Android Dev? Or Sony?
And i did search, for 2 whole days before i made this post, google, xda, sony forum.
Still your suggestion did not show up in my searches.
But do u suggest we shall not post if our searches does not reach what other ppl find?
XDA is kinda big, there is a lot answers, ..and questions
So for your information, i will still post questions in the Neo section if i do not find it in the Neo section But i promise i will not post it in the ARC section
And to the case: The thread u suggested worked, to a limit. not 100% for my needs.
But for other with a Neo like me, that wanna go through this, please try the link codephus suggested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26758586#post26758586
Also the App can be found in google play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...leanup.Inteks.org&feature=search_result&hl=en
Sony Neo and ICS 4..4 are easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26980804&postcount=3
well i was trying to encourage others towards doing a through search before they post
anyway, this might sound stupid and you might tried it before but: have you tried flashing 4.0.4 ftf without the "vendor.sin"?

Remove bloatware
Hi @all!
I'm running Android 4.0.4 rooted on locked bootloader Xperia Neo.
Don't know what's the matter but it seems that bloatware in /system/vendor/app/ (such as 'Fun & Downloads', 'Let's Golf', etc) cannot be deleted.
I tried to remove those packages from SManager, Es Explorer and Root Uninstaller with root permission but they just refuse (it gives an error).
Any idea?? How did you remove them and why I cannot?
Tnx a lot!

So, use Root Explorer and navigate to folder and press Mount R-W button, than you ll be able to delete it.

Ok guys. It might be just my phone.
I'm root and the partition is mounted with R/W permissions and yet it doesn't permit the files to be deleted. It just says that they cannot be deleted.
I tried with several file managers, such as SManager or ES File Explorer.

Make an ext4 partition in the SD card and install link2sd or mounts2sd
