What does being rooted have to do with memory?
Best advice youtube qbking77 and search for his unroot video.

Might help. Do you have many backups or multiple roms stored on your internal sd card? Those take a lot of space.

Did the thread i linked to do no help? The zip in that thread will put you back on stock unrooted mb1.
I honestly don't think root has anything to do with your memory issue. I would bet there is leftover crap that didn't get deleted somewhere.
You can try formatting your internal sd card, though that'll delete everything, but it'll give you a fresh start.
Make sure to have a backup of something on your external sd card though.

If your memory is low, make sure you don't have ROMs or big downloads left over from downloads. Make sure you delete the backups with a file explorer.

Just got done flashing Blazer ROM on my SGSIII and noticed that the entire thread is gone. What happened?
I would also like to know . Well at least my rom is still downloading

this is getting ridiculous. obviously a mod must have removed it. if you are going to remove a thread for some unknown reason AT LEAST post in the thread that its removed for whatever reason so a bunch of people aren't wondering where the hell it well.
that being said it seems to be working great.
if a thread is removed we minimally deserve a closed/locked notification in the thread
Yea I was about to post a topic about this. Wat the hell happened?? Im flashing the ROM right now.
Can someone pm me the rom or link me to there dropbox. I was downloading from my phone it failed . i am unable to download and flash smdh
An explanation would be nice
Yeah, I rooted tonight just bc of his ROM and then when I was done it was gone.
Can someone PM a link to dropbox for the ROM too? I really want this ROM :-\

It doesn't move apps to sd, but I heard of this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849861&highlight=app2extsd Dont forget to hit thanks if thats what you are looking for
I guess you're looking for the app2sd from Froyo... ICS can't do that nativly, but there are work arounds with root. Like the one posted above, but that swaps you interal with external memory.
The best option would be Link2SD, reported working in Sprint SG3 by a few members. But for this to work you need to partition your extSdCard so it has a ext4 and FAT32 partition, if you don't know how then follow this post that has detailed instructions.

I agree with slicingtaco, find the Exynosabuse.apk from Chainfire here on XDA and install it. You will be able to do this right from your SGN2. After rooting, get goomanager from the play store. open goomanager and in the menu choose 'Install OpenRecoveryScript'. That will download and install TWRP which will overwrite the stock recovery, which, after all of this you can install custom ROMS.
Right after rooting, you may have to get BusyBox Free from the playstore and install busybox.
Good Luck!
