Hey
I have a few apps on my SD card and this morning at random I recieved the "low on space" Message in my notifications area
It is driving me crazy and wondering why this could be as I have 41MB free.
I am rooted with the bootloader unlocked and I have not installed any app for a few days at least.
I have the add more space mod maybe this is just eye candy rather than actual space freed up.
Other than being rooted and bootloader unlocked I have stock .62 firmware with only reboot mod and some fonts replaced etc
If it is still there tomorrow evening I will just reflash my firmware however I would rather not need to
Thanks in advance,

Your phone is rooted and unlocked. Theres a way to format a partition on your sd to act like a internal memory. May that helps. Google it, i have seen a guide before

You can use tb and integrate some apps into ROM.
I use root explorer to check the space in system,then use titatium backup to move apps as system apps then push to ROM.

There's a well written Link2SD article written on Xperiablog.net. I've followed that and no longer have any memory issues.

If you mean can you still use them and update them then yes.....I have flash player,gmail,maps and other apps I cant remember I pushed to Rom and they still update ok.
By doing this you get extra internal space.
don't use all system space as I got fc 's when I had 10mb left

you can move any app to the sd with titanium backup, so let the internal memory be, only the apps that need to be available all the time, or if you need widgets to function then you need to keep that app installed in internal memory, otherwise move everything to sd, even the ones that cant be moved by default.

And before updating we have to unfreeze them and are ready to update?
Some apps are always running which starts to annoy me and don't want to lose the ability to keep root and do OTA updates.

Hello all,
first I'm sorry for my poor english. I will do my best.
I have my Xperia Play since 1 month and I have change the SD card from 8 to 32 Go. I have many place to stock all the things and the RAM free is great. But the intern memory is less than 24 Mo when it's started.
I have install and use App to SD to do the best but there is the same problem.
How to please to have more free intern memory ? (it's a problem when I must download a think from android market and install an update for example).
Thanx.
Heads up, internal memory and RAM are the same thing in android. So I'm not really sure what you're asking since you say RAM is fine but internal memory isn't....

How can Ram and internal memory be the same thing? I have 270mb free memory but often low on ram when open too many apps
Anyways OP, you can look up on the Dalvik hack, not sure whether you need rooted phone or not..

He's talking about internal storage, not internal "memory".
Try rooting the phone and getting rid of bloatware. Also, some roms take up less space than others. I found there is more internal storage after the updates.

Because Ram and memory is the same thing! Storage or disk space has nothing to do with memory.

Guys you're arguing semantics here. The guy stated English wasn't his first language and he's quite clearly talking about internal storage, especially when he mentioned his SD card. Quit arguing about the difference between memory and storage.
Not mine either, that's why I understood exactly what he said

Titanium is an Android user's best friend. Especially the pro version. Freezing bloatware makes a HUGE difference in both general performance and battery life.

Thanx a lot but Titanium is not easy to configure : I must be "rooted" but I don't know how. Installing BusyBox and SuperUser don't change that.

What kind of backup do you have to restore from?

I use Titanium Backup.
I believe there is a batch option to Restore Missing Apps, so as long as you backed them up they should be restorable. I restore my apps and data regularly when I am testing things. Just don't restore system apps/data, that generally doesn't end well.

I still can't find my games and apps...
Well, I would guess that either they didn't get backed up, or if they were then the backup file was moved so Titanium can't see it. Either of those possible?

I don't know... Or must I reinstall the apk ? It taking up my whole SD space even though I can't see the games and apps...
Titanium will reinstall the .apk if it was backed up, but if you have moved the apps to the SD card then I don't believe Titanium can back them up properly. I keep all my apps on the internal memory but I know that is not possible with some phones due to low internal memory or if you have a lot of apps. In that case you would need to move them back from the SD to the internal memory, then back them up, then move them back to the SD.
Try reinstalling the apk, maybe it will be able to relink to the SD.

It impossible that apps can disappear after rooting.....have you tried reinstalling the apps ? And see if they ask to be overwritten ?

I think it got wipe... But why it still taking up much space ?
If your referring to the 4gb used and 3.4gb free at the bottom of your screen shot that number is the total space used by everything on your sd card not just apps. I'm guessing you have otjerthings on.your sd card ie music,pics,rom,backups so that total refers to everything on your sd card

I would try and install a couple apps manually since you said titanium back up did not work. Reboot and see if they are there if not I would take a look at the thread I linked to in my prior post. If you don't have anything on your sd card like I mentioned and are still missing 4gb of space then you may need to format your sd card. This will erase everything on your card including partitions so back up anything of importance to your pc first.

Hi my internal memory on my Xperia PLAY is 1.7 mb and everything is sooo slow and freezing and I can't even get into applications to delete apps. What can I do??? it's so frustrating!
HELP ME!!! Someone come on!!!
you can use link2sd it lets you move the apps to a ext partition... obviously you have to format first

But my phone is freezing and I can't access anything at all!
so you have only two options
1. you've saved all your data and flash a fresh install of a ftf so you can do the process with link2sd
2. conect to pc if you can and delete some data (music, pictures....) and see if you can with that
3. I don't know what else .... sorry
Okay thanks for that. Do I need root to use link2sd

If u dont care about the data being lost why dont u flash a stock .ftf it usually is a good back up. But of course your bootloader must be unlocked. Actually abit of info regarding your set up (kernel,rom, unlocked bootloader or not) will help us help you

Hi guys, I just want to ask incase anyone of you knows the solution to my problem because i tried searching here and there but to no avail.. Everytime I use LupusGB kernel some of my apps disappears on reboot but when Im using Doomkernelv14 everything seems fine.. It just puzzles me as to why they go missing after reboot.. Hope someone can help me.. And btw my ROM is Xperia NXT Gaming 1.2.. Thanks for your answers
Are you using links2sd or apps2sd? Or maybe lucky patcher?
Sometimes it just need time to load all apps who are on sd (esspecially if you have lot of them)

I don't know what is causing that, but you could try to move them to phone memory, then move them to sd again. Try with normal way (from settings-apps) or with link2sd.
Maybe android.secure folder is deleted. You have backup?

Reboot to recovery, mount sd card from there, plug in to pc, transfer all files from sd card to pc, format sd card (from phone), transfer back sd card files.
