Hello guys!
my xperia is really short on internal memory, i can only install a couple of games on it before the memory is completeley full.
i've been searching the intertubez for a swap but i couldnt find a good one for the play. I have a 16 GB card, wich has 7GB free now.
Can somebody explain it to me or link me to a Thread??
Thanks in advance ;3

No sd swap available but if you're rooted you can install link2sd which installs pretty much everything to the sd (including data files that are normally installed on internal) meaning you save all internal space. I have hundreds of apps installed and still have around 200mb internal storage free.

Hi guys.
Ive been using my xperia play for a month now. Everything was good at first till it started lagging.
This might be due to the internal memory being low though.
Any ideas how I can move apps to sd thru a2sd?
A2sd requested scripts which I have no idea on where to get it. Can someone provide me a tutorial. Im really a noob and have seen the vid
Thanks in advance

you dont need any script
Download Apps to Sd free from market and transfer your apps from phone memory to Sd card ............
Thanks, but was looking for a force move. Used titanium

How to get rid of Low on space notification/restriction? I have 40MB left and that notification is simply annoying, to say the least...

why don't you move some of the installed apps to SD card?!
um, I moved all the apps to SD card I could. Meaning the ones that support moving. I could force move to SD card for some apps, but don't want to screw with that.

That message is there for a reason and if you know what your doing some times it just takes common sense you can move most of your apps to SD card even if the creator of the app doesn't allow it in the app setting 's

How come some phones are okay with less than 20MB free... anyway, arc's internal memory size is way too small... "common sense", huh? Well, I have my own reasons for not wanting to force the apps to SD...

Links2SD works wonderfully for the Xperia 2011 phones.
I did the "move to SD" for every app possible, but still ran into issues downloading games from the Market due to only have 20-70 MB free on the internal phone storage.
But, using Links2SD, creating a 1 GB partition on the SDCard for apps, and moving/linking pretty much everything to that, I have over 150 MB free internal phone storage for app downloading.

It isn't big, but not too small.
Some of us, as I do, have more than 100 apps and ~100MB left.
Once I had 145 apps and 80MB were left, I just use the native App2SD. No Link2SD etc
Do you clear your cache regulary?
Gives me back ~10MB each day

Well, if you compare Arc's internal memory to some other devices' that have 16GB of it, it does seem tiny, doesn't it? I have more than 200 apps and I use Apps2SD, so I move apps to SD if they support it. I used TB to force some huge apks to SD, like Epic Blue and Green themes for CM7, but it's a bit of a pain if you're on one of those themes when you have to reboot, because you have to reapply the theme after the phone boots up. And yes, I wipe cache on daily basis. I'm getting myself 32GB memory card so I'll probably try Link2SD or something like that. I currently have 2 class 8GB card which I got with the phone. Lousy card, lol.
But anyway, I just wanted to know if it was possible to get rid of that Low on space message. Like, okay, I know I'm low on space, I'll see what I can do later, but get the fck away from my status bar now cos you annoy me...

I think we should remove unuseful applications.
Does anyone know the way to backup applications, group them by folder and restore all without asking anything?

Yeah. Stock firmware, 2.3.4, rooted, locked bootloader.

eMMC stands for embedded multi media card. Its basically the SD that came with your phone. You can use an app called storage analyzer to see what is taking up space on the emmc .

We don't have an apps2sd. I can't remember if that's just the way ics is set up or if its cause the phone is set up that way. But there is a mod in the dev section that lets you swap internal for external

why do you need to? you have 16gb on internal storage... then an extra sd card for media etc...
Not sure why he needs it, but I would like it as I have two Gameloft apps installed. They're huge and take up gigs of space. Would be nice to move them easily to my 64 gig SD.

Yes this is normal.

Yes this is normal, 2GB are for RAM, some for the OS etc. and the rest is free memory.

Wth does ram have to do with nand memory?
To OP. That is correct amount but not cause of RAM. The 16gb memory is partitioned for system, cache data etc.
And the one left is your sdcard.
You can always an external sdcard for music, photos and movies.
But game data and some other data like from gps apps must install in internal.

I just read something about nand memory being used as ram extension. I have no idea if that is the case here or not. http://wikibon.org/wiki/v/The_adoption_of_NAND_Flash_as_a_Seamless_Extension_of_RAM_Memory

If I understand that correctly it means that after ram is filled it will use nand space as virtual ram. I think that would decrease read speeds as nand is significantly slower than ram.

Yes that is what I understood from the article too, so we have dedicated 2gb of ram that has nothing to do with the 16 gb of storage, right? I wasnt entirely sure

Yes. Ram is autonomous memory. Nothing to do with the internal 16gb nand flash memory.
