I have 500 Mb of free space on internal storage and when install or update any app sent me a error notification of low memory internal storage.
I try to wipe cache and dalvik cache and reflashing the rom but don't work.
Help me please!
Thanks

Get rid of some huge apps or files (movies, audio, ...) on the internal storage.
Alternatively move them to the external SD card.
Move to micro-SD issue

Samsung or Google in their wisdom have decided to not allow Google Play apps to be moved to the micro-SD card.

I was talking about movies/music since (at least for me) that's what eats up all the disk capacity =)
If you're rooted you can bypass the App2Sd restriction by using the app "Directory Bind"
By the way; App2SD was implemented to be able to move apps from the app-specific storage (/data/) to the internal storage (/sdcard) since the first one was far smaller. Since the S3 shares the SDcard-Storage with the app-storage capacity, it's no longer needed. Or so they thought.

Forgive me. When you wrote, "huge apps or files (movies, audio, ...) " and wrote move "them", I had incorrectly assumed you meant move "huge apps or files (movies, audio, ...) " to the SD card
if you rooted, install lucky patcher (google it), then run it. it will automatically delete unused odex file in our system.
So, under settings -> storage, I'm seeing the external SD card as it should but the internal memory is only 2.35GB. Isn't it supposed to be near to 13GB? I am not getting any low storage space or anything, just setting my available space.
Maybe the space is there with another name, how do I check the available internal space? DiskInfo is showing the similar thing.

There are three storage areas in the stock Rezound...
Apps - about 2.3GB
Phone Storage - about 13GB
These are part of the internal 16GB of storage in the phone itself, and is shared with the operating system, cache partitions, app partitions, and regular storage. They are segmented and cannot be joined and actually seen as one drive.
External Storage - about 15GB (sd card dependant)
each one is it's own partition, you cannot access the "App" area without root access. the Phone Storage is the "HTC STORAGE" drive that opens when you connect to the PC, the unnamed volume is the external SD card.

So, is there any easy way to see how much actual free space do I have left?

I can only see
Total space - 2.3, then sub-sections like downloads, cached etc
SD card - (external card space), same sub-sections
Unmount SD
Erase SD
Does your settings like any different?

Yes... This is stock, rooted. Are you running a custom ROM?

Yes, I am running a custom ROM. That could be the reason for the different screen.
There is an issue sometimes with the newer ROMs where the internal or external memory is not seen in the ROM but is when connected by USB... You usually just need to format the partition in FAT32 either via CWM/TWRP/Amon Ra or Windows.
Can you browse to it with ES File Explorer or other file manager?

Would you be willing to list out the process for properly formatting the internal storage? I've tried several things, the most recent of which was mounting through recovery and formatting with Windows. However, the internal storage still can't be accessed by the camera, in ES File Explorer, etc. Thanks for any help you can provide.

In TWRP, you would go to wipe - advanced wipe - then select only internal SD option.

I am using the solid exp and here's this folder "Internal memory" at SystemRoot, Now, this internal memory is actually my memory card. At the systemroot, there's another folder named "Storage". This folder has these 3 sub-folders - Internal memory (same as the previous one), sdcard1 (empty with free space 376MB) and usbdisk0 (empty with 376MB).
BTW, using the Xenon HD ROM and as far as I can remember, TRON had the same folders and all.
Sorry for such an elementary question. How can i tell what is taking up all of my internal memory. When i use es file explorer and analyze the internal storage. Twrp is the biggest file @ 5 gigs next is android @ 1 gig. Ive got no storage space left and i dont know what to delete.

This is your internal storage, yes? That twrp is your recovery made backups. You could move it to external storage, or make a new one in ext storage and delete it.
First things first: TWRP and Android aren't files, they're folders, each of which contains multiple files and folders within it.
Nandroid backups are very large. I generally keep only the latest two on my phone (on an external SD card), and copy all the older ones to a PC.
Android has a subfolder called data, which contains all the data stored by [some of] your apps. Depending on the app and what it does, that could be a lot of data.
Hey guys,
I'll keep it short.
I am using about 5.7 GB of space on my internal storage although the ES directory analyzer shows about 4GB extra that I could not possibly find.
When I select all my files in on the internal storage ( incl. hidden files), and hit properties, it calculates 5.7 GB
I am enclosing some screenshots.
I have tried various storage analyzing apps and they all show the same.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
do you have root?
Try this app Disk Usage : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage
You can scan normal internal memory or with root the whole phone, this also shows root partitions which you normally can't access.
Hello everybody. I have SGS2 GT-19100 running in Cyanogenmod 12.1. Has 12 GB internal storage and 8gb of external sd card.
I have been using this for about a month or 2, its really really fast. But I realized my phone becomes slower and slower because my applications uses too much storage. Every application use about 300-400 mb of storage. My internal storage has 200mb left and same as my external sd card, too.
Well the top #1 solution is that go to recovery TWRP or CWM and wipe internal storage and cache
but I'm just wondering if I can wipe up internal storage and cache WITHOUT deleting personal files and these applications because I HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT AGAIN and it takes too much time. If there's any solutions what would it be?
I need help ASAP. Thanks :laugh:
There is no such thing as a wipe that will wipe the internal storage and keep all of your files. You could try SD maid to clean up any space that the apps may have taken. Or, you could wipe the app data manually off each app. However if there is some important app info you want to keep, this is probably what you are not looking for.
Delete the LOST.DIR folder if it exists in your internal storage. Keep all backups onto external sd. See what can be moved onto the sd card and if there isn't many, you may have figure out something else instead of deleting and wiping.
