This is driving me insane. It says most of my internal storage is filled. But I can only account for 4.5 gigs used at most. Any help figuring this out would be awesome!

Your screenshot doesn't display the amount of free space, so you haven't provided enough info for troubleshooting. 9.57gb is the correct amount for a 16gb phone.

Actually, it says "Available Space: 482MB."
Are you using CWM @wesmagyar? If yes, go to the root of your device and look in the directory /data/media/clockwork.

Not saying that is the problem, just that I've seen it 4 or 5 times already here, so that's the 1st place I'd look into for this particular problem.

I understand. But if you made any backups with CWM, be sure to check that directory. Every situation like this I've seen has had backups residing in that directory.
And this one is no exception, that is just weird man. I went there and sure enough the two Backups from my external SD we're in that directory as well. I deleted them and now I have 7.45 gigs free Thanks!
Its alright I've been using clockworkmod since the mytouch 3G and I've never seen this.

Is it bad to move your apps over to your sd card?

It may create a wormhole that could potentially transport you and your phone to an alternate universe -be very careful with this power!
Kidding. Your external storage is there for your convenience and added storage capacity for things such as, including apps, music, videos and pictures. Some apps are written to be stored within the phone's internal storage, but most can be moved of so desired.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Also, depending on the size of sdcard you have, you could partition the card's storage for applications only, leaving the rest for music, pictures, and/or videos. Just another option...
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
No it's not bad at all. The only thing is the apps moved to the sd will take a little bit longer to load up when your phone turns on.
I haven't moved any of my 135 apps to the sd and I still have .94 GB left on my phone storage
Sent from Flip's SGS2
nope
i use it all the time to save space on the phone, with the thought of it should boot up faster, and only downside i have found is sometimes an app doesnt link correctly with the phone when i reboot or unmount the sd card or link my phone via USB and un link then it sometimes misses an app or too, then i need to unmount and re mount or just reboot.
Not sure if that is just my New SD card messing up or the rom, i dont remember having this issue before. But the sd card i have is a class 10 32 gb.
either way thats the only issues i have had.
best of luck!
what about moving them to the "internal SD" so it uses that partition of the internal storage rather than the phone storage?
Do you know what they say about big SD cards?

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
OK so you know how were supposed to have like 14 gigs ? I wanted to use a storage analyzer to give me some data and see why I have so much little space left and from what I'm seeing I'm still lost lol. I noticed I have 4 files though 2 are modern combat 3 one is an obb file and the other doesn't let me see it but they are both different sizes but take up huge amounts of space and the other two are modern combat 4 same situation with that file there are two different ones it seems and both take up huge amounts of space is it because I backed them up in titanium ? I'm not sure but I used two different analyzers to try and get a view

Looks like something got messed between your update from 4.1 to 4.2.
Most correct option: wipe sdcard and wipe data.
Easiest: not sure as I wouldn't want to be dealing with that stuff.

Hi everyone,
So as the tittle says my phone isn't being recognized. I think this is due to the fact that I enabled fast charge ONE time and now ever since it won't let me access my internal SD card. Does anybody have any idea of what I can do? Thanks in advance
If it helps I'm running orca project with Trinity kernel.
I've been looking around I read that reflashing the ROM might fix it but I only wanna have to do this as a last resort if somebody doesn't know what to do.

Download a kernel settings app such as franco trinity or trickster mod. It will be in there for sure.
Screenshotbis with trickster mod. Check the market for the free version should work fine.

If it helps I think that my USB port is broken in some way. It charges but I can't get my phone recognized on 2 different computers even after flashing 2 different ROMs. So I ended up using air droid to copy all files to my computer then to my Nexus 4.

Hey guys. I know space can be an issue if you're like me and like having a lot of games. So this app called gl to sd which is free in the play store freed up so much space for me. It moves data to your external storage. Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone interested. Not sure if I put this in the right section though. Anyway check this out.

You could do a complete wipe and format. Had a similar issue before, never really figured out the cause, but starting over definitely worked!

Take a screenshot and let's go deeper then! You can browse the whole thing directory by directory and we can find the culprit.
Here is this what you wanted or in a different directory?
