Hi,
I just downloaded the app DiskUsage and out of my 32GB of space, I only have 1.6gb of space left. My music is only 8-9gb and I was kind of wondering where most of the space was used. Although I have around 50 apps installed none of it is more than 200mb in size as I only have 5 games installed.
When I used Disk usage, it says the "System Data" uses up 13gb of my space. I'm kind of wondering what it contains, and if it contains dead data from the stock Android ICS that was originally installed in my phone. I'm using Android revolution HD, and my device is currently rooted. Is there another way of finding out which files are in my system and how to clean up useless data?
Thanks!
You really need to look around. Seriously the thread about the problem you have is on the page. You seriously must be slow or have no regard for XDA rules. Get it together.

I think he's talking about the RAM. Android manages memory different than OS X or Windows. Full is actually good. People are always going overboard with task killers trying to free up RAM. Android will free up RAM as necessary, so you really shouldn't ever have to worry about it. Unlike Windows when it gets full it puts memory into swap on the HDD slowing it down. Android will just quit the app, because you haven't used it in a while.
Just for reference I have 246MB available on CM7 with a fresh boot. After using it a few hours, I generally have about 90MB free on average.
Phone gets real slow when int mem gets low. So how do I release mem? I've realised that moving apps to SD does reduce it but not all will move. I've moved what I can so far but would still like more free int mem.

Root it or buy a new phone.
Several topics above yours you could find HTC Desire memory issues, at the 4th page I have described what one can do to increase available memory. And yeah, root + custom rom is probably the best thing you can do.
Edit
Ah I didn't saw that you are already rooted, so get a rom with more space for apps
Thx. Hmmmm yeah rooted with large SD. 2g ext4. Isn't there a method to use some SD space as internal or extention too?

Use data2sd, data2ext or data2whatever..
You can find it in development section..

take a look at this, DZ have a full HTC GB rom, just with ALL the space you need...
Searched forum to no avail.
Running Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1 on Three UK handset.
Started a few weeks ago, when using Flipboard app, that Sense crashed when closing app. Now it is happening again all apps, Internet, in fact everything.
I had this issue on 1.28 or 1.29, but update fixed it. Now it's back. Be a great help if somebody could shed some light on this.
Thanks.

I am getting the same sort of problems although it isn't crashing all the time. Also on Three UK, standard stock and unrooted 1.29 Do you have lots of apps installed and have very little internal storage free as I think this is causing my problems? I have lots of problems with insufficient memory when trying to install or update apps. I used app2sd to move apps to phone storage but I seem to still always have very little free internal memory but 13gb free on phone storage.
I want to do a complete factory wipe and reinstall / setup apps to see if it resolves it but I think I will wait for JB before doing this due to the hassle and time it will take me.
Thanks

Loads of apps. 8gb Internal left. 1gb other. Done a wipe/reflash. No different.
Can't work out why it's happening. It's the latest in a list. Cannot see myself touching HTC again. My Desire was almost faultless. The One X is great, but only when it fancies. Shame.

next time buy HTC, not branded
You have many running apps and this causes Android to start killing apps when it needs more memory. I guess it's the carrier bloatware. It has nothing to do with Sense "crashing". Try to identify which apps are not needed and disable them if possible.

Completely agree, brands are ****... Cause of the CID, very late upgrades and these sort of problems
Hi.
Is there any disadvantage moving apps from "phone storage" to "SD storage" in One X? Is there any write/read speed difference?
Thanks
Both memory is the same, just partitioned as "internal" and another part as "sd card".
So no, there is no speed diference.

Other than using less space on the "internal"
Yeah, but the op already knows that
Tbh i dont know why apps still dont install themselfs on sdcard by default if sdcard is present.. or at least ask where to be installed, like symbian did 6 years ago.. oh well, maybe we'll see that in android 6.0

Big games already do that automatically. Try installing Asphalt or NFSMW, the APK stays in the internal partition while the game files are on the SD partition.
Sure those do, probably because there is not enough space on internal or 2 games would fill it.. but still would be nice to be asked for the <200mb games too.. oh well, one day maybe

I've transferred everything from my m8 to this fone only to find that despite the increase in storage I only have a few Gb of spare storage. Under storage in settings it says over 10Gb is being used by system and other. This seems very high. Is this the same for everyone? What exactly is this 10Gb? And can I remove any of it?

Mine is using 9.6GB System and Other. I would think about 8gb is probably the system. Some is apps, and some is data in apps.

Thanks for the reply.
It seems so excessive. The M8 didn't use anywhere near as much as that. Can't remember how much exactly, I'll check when I get home. Either way, buying a device with 32 Gb of storage, only to find that a third of that can't even be utilised by yourself is disappointing. Looks like I'll need to get me an sd card despite the bigger storage.

At least with the M9 we have that option!
