For the life of me..I cant figure out why my internal memory is so full. Any ideas in how to clear it out? No music no pics only a few apps.

Try looking at it with this program.

I found a huge directory called android.

Is that folder ok to delete? It has all my apps listed in it. That seems like all the data for all the apps.
Only delete if your want to get rid of the data. Programs store data there. Mine is huge because of the gallery app.

That's what I thought, thanks

When I download apps from the "more services" or "more apps" application on my sprint galaxy s3, does the apk save on my sd card at all? If so, where can I find them.
I don't think it saves them but you can get the app easy
Its in /data/app/ of your phone
Not internal or external SD
Root of phone memory

They show up in my gallery repeatedly. They look like malware pictures. I removed all of them once and they came back. So I looked at the details and found the file location. Removed the files. A day later they're back once again.

Some app is putting them there. I know that the Geico app puts silly pics on your phone.
Why is this an acceptable practice? It's like those airpush ads.
I deleted the whole appcache file and it still came back.

Torrents, stop using them on your phone lol.
Do you have any sideload games folders on your memory card? If you do, Gallery will create thumbnail images from those folders. The only way to tell the gallery not to read those folder is you must have .nomedia file in those folders. Good luck.

This might be the closest assumption to whats causing the problem. But its so convient to download torrents straight to my phone lol.

My phone's camera usually freezes and then reboots my phone sometimes when I open the camera app. I think it happens because of the 'external to internal' app I use. I'm on version 4.1.2 and my phone is rooted. Someone please help.

External to internal is not stable on i9082 for a lot of apps. Definitely shouldn't use that on system apps like gallery or camera
Remove camera/gallery from external to internal app.
If needed clear cache and data of both apps after switching them back to normal memory
Thanks, but how do I remove apps from the external to internal app?

if you are using external to internal memory switcher then you can't, because you're mounting your extSD card as internal. and if you can't find anything else wrong, you might have to try and reverse this. but if you are using some app to simple move the apps data to external then it should be doable.
Did you try cleaning cache for camera and gallery?
Or trying a different camera app like Camera360?

I use the external ro internal memory switcher. I just uninstalled it and camera seems to work well for now. Thanks. PS: I try to hit thanks on your post, but my xda app crashes when I try. Dunno why.

Just go to the play store and search for recover lost pictures. You'll get a bunch. I've personally used easeus on my computer if those don't work. Great program, but expensive

Hi Guys,
So my mother has got a Galaxy Gio and lately she's got several notifications that said her internal memory was full..
She has 3 non-stock apps on the phone)
- Facebook (in sd card memory)
- Backgrounds (in phone memory)
- Barcode Scanner (in phone memory)
Since this phone has such a ridiculous amount of internal phone storage, and since all her pictures and music is storend on sdcard memory, the only thing for me left to do was delete the least favourite app: barcode scanner... BUT when I tried I couldnt, the uninstall button in the properties page (in settings, manage apps) of the app is unclickable... I cant seem to delete this app!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Install Mounts2SD app and can move all user apps to the SD-EXT (2nd partition of external SD card).
Google if you have no idea.
Thanks, but it says that the phone should be rooted. But mine isnt.
