Can ANYONE tell me why i supposed to have 147 mb of usable memory but i only installed like 28 meg of apps total and i dont have any memory left?
could be confusing storage space with ram? have you confirmed under storage-internal storage that you have no more memory available? are you using the stock rom?
im having this exact same issue with my internal storage. no apps installed and i only have 30mb or so on internal using 3rd sense... been trying for 2 days to get data2ext to work with no luck.
Which rom are you on?
This phone only has that much for app storage. A huge disappointment.
If you have root and a custom ROM, just do MTD partitions or apps2ext if you have an ext partition.

Hi,
I am new here, sorry for noob question.
Recently I have flashed [ROM-GingerBread] Ginger Villain 0.9 with A2SD+ feature.
Before installation I did full wipe and created new EXT partition on my 4GB SD card with ROM manager (Size: 512MB Wipe:0MB)
After few days from flashing I have installed several applications from Market. Today I have tried to install another one, but no success. It shows me internal memory running out of space. So installation has failed.
I am not able to install more apps anymore. I don't understand it! When I run Quick system info it says:
A2SD storage - total 457MB, Free 342 MB
Internal storage - Total 148MB, Free 13,69MB
Where is the problem? Why is system installing apps to internal storage and not to A2SD storage?
Could somebody help me?
Thanks.
Read up on how A2SD+ works. Either use search or start here.
I have the same problem with Leedroid 2.3d
A2SD+ but internal memory is running out of space and ext has about 300 mb left
Please help

So basically if internal memory is getting low, the cache is the culprit?

Most of the time, yes.
i have installed miui a2sd+ edition... i have created a 512mb ext partition... i still have low storage issue... but i still have a lot of space available on my 512mb partition... (only 100mb is used up) and internal storage i have only 20mb left... why aren't the apps stored fully on the ext partition?
u have to flash the rom after u create ext3 partition
yup already flashed the rom.... still it used 100mb out of 512mb of ext partition but i have only 20mb internal space available.. why aren't all internal memory moved to ext partition?
There is plenty of information about what a2sd+ is and does. Try searching!
If you need more space search fire data2sd.

ok thx... so basically what i am reading is that a2sd+ is mostly like the move to sdcard feature of froyo and gingerbread...? 512nb is way too much if i understand correctly
okie i installed data2ext version of miui!! it's great!! i now have a true 1gb internal storage!!!
i m running miui gingerbread rom on my desire and i always get notification that my phone memory is low on space..... when i go into the settings it shows that 131mb used and 6.5 mb free..... I dont understand this!!!
The desire has 500mb internal memory so 365mb have been taking by my Rom MIUI...
plz help??
500MB total internel memory. You need space for /system, /data, /cache, boot, recovery and what ever else. If you run the stock hboot you only get 147MB of actual app storage. With MIUI you can flash or activate the A2SD script but you need an ext3/4 partition on your SD card.
I have ext3 partition on my Sdcard of 2GB...
So how can i activate or flash the A2SD script????
I recommend flashing the new rom of choice without restoring user apps at all.
Draconian it's true, guarantee you will free up space though as you won't reinstall everything you previously had. I'm nit suggesting anything, just saying it worked for me!
Hi guyz. I am a newbie to this desire community. During last week i tried as many roms as possible. I made a ext 4 partition of about 1GB. When i tried sense based Aurora rom, i noticed 900 mb of internal memory available(guess its counting ext partition as internal memory). When i tried some other roms i noticed 180mb of memory(a2sd). Why is that?
So if i use a2sd and install 40 apps what would be my internel memory? Will it be sufficient? I raised this query because before i try few other roms i should be clear which is the suitable one.
Thanks

I have a 1GB ext4 partition with some 60 apps installed. Usually I have around 4-600MB on ext partition and 70-100MB on internal memory free, depending on the ROM I use. Hope that helps.

The Aurora-ROM used a technology called DATA2SD / DATA2EXT (different names, but they work the same way)
A2SD: All apps you install will be automatically to EXT-partition (internal memory still decreases and is still 150 MB).
A2SD+: Functions plus the moving of dalvik-cache to EXT-partition
DATA2SD / DATA2EXT: The whole internal memory (/data-partition) will be moved to EXT-partition and the size of the EXT-partition is from now on the "new" internal memory.
How much internal memory you have free depends on the apps you install.
Just installed CM 11 which is about 210MB (as a zip file).
According to my phone, the internal storage is only 5.41GB. I would have expected something like 8GB-5%. I dont know wthether it's always been like this...
Any ideas, explanation etc?
It's because of the partitons of your phone
It's still the same as stock the advantage is that you can put more mods or apps into /system
System partition is 1.5gb mine with all gapps installed is 800mb free
that's where yoor missing space is
