As I recently updated my Samsung A10 phone from Android 9 to Android 10 first thing I experienced that my 32GB strorage is almost full. I Mainly use SD Card for media and documents. So, I went to investigate to see what's happening.
& looks like, a lot of things I don't understand are using the space.
these two screenshots are from 'My Files' native app of Samsung. All the files and folders in Internal Storage accumulated as 2.21GB but other says Used 30.49GB out of 32GB.
Now for settings,
System Memory 8GB
Photos & Videos 5.6GB
Games 2.3GB
Mobile & TV Apps 0MB
Others 7.2GB
Total 23.1GB
but available space is 1.5GB
though I can ensure that there is no photos or videos in Internal Storage other then these 4 screenshots.
What's gives???

Files relocated with directory bind still counting against storage allocation

I hesitate to ask since other topics have adressed what seem to be related issues, so I anticipate being told to Google it, but none of the threads I've found have given solutions so I'm posting ...
I've used directory bind to relocate files to my ext sd 64 gb. I don't want to just swap my ext and int. It seems that some files, including those from Google Music cache and camscanner are still being counted against me in the system.
It's to the point that the total amount of space supposedly used exceeds the capacity of the drive. I'm attaching photos of what I'm directory binding and the storage report.
Can anyone please clue me in?

[Q] Low Memory Issues

Hey folks, Long time..
I am havin low memory issues inspite of the fact that i have a 500 MB partition on my sdcard. Below is the Memory Storage Info:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It clearly shows that i've got enough free space on the partition,i.e.,"/data/sdext2/"
As you see, "/data" and "/sdext2" are all empty !
I am wondering :
1) If the partition aint located in "/data/sdext2/", then whats the path for it ?
2) Why does it show low memory despite my external partition is free of space ?
Any help would be appreciated...
FYI, I am using Pranjal's Rom 4.0
Edit: I am on 500 MB ext4 partition on a 16 GB class 6 micro sd card .

[Q] Swapping External SD for Innternal Storage

OK I've tried several different things to try and make my external SD card be seen as my internal. I have tried different methods from you tube to forums. Link2Sd was my latest. I had no success with the main app i want to be used on my SD card. The app I'm trying to move is RDIO. This app lets me download music to my phone and use it only through the app when i have no internet. My regular storage capacity is so small it takes all i have for a little bit of music. My phone is rooted. Any help would be appreciated. My phone is a LG G3 Vigor.

Xposed is your friend
You may have to edit build.prop
Code:
#Simulate sdcard on /data/media
#
persist.fuse_sdcard=true
Change to false, maybe I wont test, because I don't have internal sd backed up

No space left on internal SD card partition

Hi,
after the latest upgrade (32.2.A.0.305) a couple of days ago, I noticed that the free space on the internal SD partition is almost out. I hae not rooted the phone.
I don't have that many apps installed, but still the Settings/Storage page look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, the app Solid Explorer states the following:
What has happened and how do I get my space back?

Android: It seems to be kitkat 5.0 but some android 5.0 apps do not work with it. It completely puzzles me, plus i can't find any information about kitkat 5.0 existing.
It seems to be a custom rom.
What i want to do:
Transfer installed apps (games and the like) to SD card instead of internal storage because my internal storage is just 4GB.
Android games constantly recieve updates and their size grows, so it would be better if i could send them to external SD card, where i have a lot of space.
What i tried
Set external SD as default storage doesn't work, the games will be installed in internal storage.
My "settings" screen doesn't have a "move to SD" option.
"APP2SD" app cannot move it.
