Woo

I've used ram manager pro to create swap space for
testing purposes.
In extra tab, tap swap to create swap with directory of your choice!
Can create as much as 4gb.

what for ? getting 64gb of ram ain't make your phone faster than 2gb

Swap makes no sense on a memory optimized OS as Android. Storage is always slower than RAM and SD cards are even slower.
Besides, on Android free RAM is wasted RAM, having more apps loaded into RAM makes multitasking faster.

This is the worst idea i've ever read.

Problem when I try to install/update apps from play store

My phone suddenly get in trouble. I can't install/update any app from play store. The message "Application cannot be installed in the default installation location" always show up. This is screenshots:

It's very annoying because I have to wait hours for downloading and then that message comes up.
well it looks like your apps partition is full. although it may say u have free space left on USB/SD, your system partition is maybe full.
if u go to settings->storage you will notice you have 3 "storages" 1. Interal 1 (1-2GB), Internal 2 (10-11GB) and SD card storage.
It maybe possible u menaged to fill 1st one too much. Check storage there and try moving some apps to SD card if possible.

SD Memory Card

Hello, I am thinking of purchasing a SD card for my Tab 2 7.0 currently I am running it with a standard class 2GB card but I want to bum it up to 32GB.
My question is, what's the highest class card I can use and where can I find one. I read up about UHS class but I am not really understanding anything about the speed classes here, can someone with more knowledge explain to me what I need to store apps on a SD card without it affecting any speed or giving me lag.
Thank you.
I have purchased this, is it any good? I was going to go for a SanDisk Extreme Pro 32GB but I thought I'd start off small and see what I'd need.

http://sdcard-speed-guide.articles.r-tt.com/ anything over class 6 is not worth the added cost because the UHS class 1 speeds can't be done by our tablets (to my knowledge), this is not to say a UHS class one will not work, it will, you just won't get full speed out of it.
Basically the only reason to get a UHS-1 card is if your getting a 64 GB card (since they are all UHS-1's).
Well I went ahead and ordered it any way. Now it's inserted on my tab with no way to move apps on to it lol. I forgot I couldn't use App2SD with our device, ****. Link2SD looks hella complicated and a little too much work, plus I'm guessing if you're only linking to the data stored on the SD card it will cause some lag :/ ****. Why doesn't android natively support app2SD on android 4.2?

Uploading。。。
Just curious: what is the RAM usage of this Sense 5 ROM (total usable RAM, and RAM used by system after a clean boot)?
AOSP KitKat lowers the usable RAM to around 740 MB which is some 75 MB less than Sense ICS, thankfully AOSP's system takes up less RAM than Sense, but if this has the same RAM usage as Sense 4 but with the lower total amount of usable RAM of JB/KK then it's gonna be hard to live with.

[P] Internal Storage modifications

For roms like cm12 the internal storage is a bit small and I often got a "no free storage left" message. I did a bit of research and as for the Xperia S it is possible to resize the internal storage.
Now it looks like this.
Is anyone interested in a guide how to resize the partitions? If you do you'll lose everything stored on the device and the sd card and need to backup everything.

It is possible to merge internal memory(sometimes called device storage) and sdcard0.(sometimes called internal storage). However it is usually risky business and flashing over can hardbrick your phone.
However there are other ways to do it.
First is to move apps to sdcard, which is done best by Titaniumbackup (It requires root)
Secondly you can use a software likelink2sd which would use your memory card(you decide how much) and link it with your internal memory.
If you have still problems, you can quote me for an answer.
Good luck
Can you explain the process for link2sd, as xperia p doesn't contain SD card?

The good old .thumbnail issue, doesn't free up space (more than 5gb)

Kinda old topic but I just noticed that I had more than 5.5gb occupied by the folder .thumbnails in DCIM..
After deletion and making a file with the same name the file doesn't re-create but the space doesn't empty up either.
Check this image showing 500mb free while the actual size occupied by the files is 5.78/12gb (disregarding the 4gb occupied by the system since it's a 16gb internal storage)

The phone is note 3 neo n750 running on lollipop (Feb 2019)
Anyway to solve this??
On this image you are showing you total internal storage.
I can't see any thumbnail folder on that picture.
Actually it nothing in there except that your internal storage has 12gb and used 5gb

That's because I deleted it.. It doesn't exist no more.
That's what I said in my OP O.O
Even after deleting it, the 5 gb are still occupied, check the picture again, inside the "orange box" it says "internal memory" and "494mb/12gb"
regards!
