Storage problem that I can´t solve. - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I´m having a huge problem with my note 2. Every time I flash a new ROM, I make a wipe data and all wipe caches, dalvik...
The problem comes when I see the free space of the 16GB when I start the phone.
This is my problem:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I start with only 1GB of free space
What can I do to clean the internal memory?

Go to /data/media and you will see the HIDDEN files.. and in the '0' folder the files are those which you see in your normal file manager..
You may do a full format internal sd to overcome this problem

How do I move something to my external sd?

If I check under storage, the external sd seems to be in the internal storage folder(under miscellaneous files). I'm running out of space and need to move 8gb of data to the microsd. What can I do?

Click and hold in the folder you want to move, or individual file. Click the "move"option, and look for external sd (folder will have a storage chip icon on it) put anywhere on there after navigating past the external sd Icon

oh yeah... If you run a ROM that removes the "my files" folder, get es file explorer from the play store and navigate to it the same way as I posted before.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried transferring but my phone restarted every time.

They try hooking up to your computer, turn on USB mass storage and do it the same way as above but instead use your computer to move your files

Weird behavior with Camera

Lately I've been noticing something weird with my camera app. When I take pictures sometimes, it doesn't save the pictures properly. There's always two files (please look at screenshot). Anyone else faced this issue? Gallery shows a black image. Looking at the file system, there are two files for each pic, one JPG and other with a tmp extension

Are you using a custom rom with a modified camera app?

I am on Rasbean Jelly, but the camera app is the original one and not modified (at least that's what I think so).

Tried 'fix permissions' in CWM recovery?
SD card nearly full? Or FS corrupted maybe, try flashing stock image and maybe even relock and unlock bootloader to make sure the storage gets a nice and juicy reformat, then flash ras again from scratch.

I was pretty sure that when i uninstalled several apps i had 3gb free. But then my storage view disappeared. I couldn't see the internal memory part.
After restart, these values appeared and they don't seem to match up.
Also storage view just keeps on aaying "calculating"
What could be the problem?
Oh snap! I don't have a witty tapatalk signature!

Try diskusage .. is free from playstore and gives you a detailed distribution of your storage

Wipe your dalvik cache in recovery and check again and if that doesn't work then go to settings/application manager/all application then scroll to Settings and clear data.

Your data prior to installing cyanogen should probably be in the sdcard/ folder (or whatever you assigned it to). After the install all 4.2 roms create a 0 folder so it should be in sdcard/0 folder. The system wont read data in the sdcard/ folder but still count as space used.
I believe you can delete the old data in the sdcard folder or move them in the 0 by using root explorer.

System Data

Hello,
Never had any issues with my G3 in the year ive had it until now!
Basically I've checked my storage as my 16gb internal seemed to be incredibly low (especially since I store everything on my SD), I then realised I had a huge 8gb +/- taken up under Misc - system data. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to reduce this size.
On Samsung phones you can enter the hidden menu and wipe dumpstates and logcats but cant find the option on my d855 hidden menu.
I've flashed a bunch of ROMs and done resets etc but the problem persists. Any help would be great.
Using apps like System Cleaner etc etc DO NOT do anything as the problem lies in system data.
Thanks
Curtis

UPDATE
I've managed to improve my situation by doing the following;
Deleted the 'Facebook.orca' folder from my internal sd (That was a massive 4gb- but for some reason didn't come up under app data etc)
Installed FolderMount and linked my DCIM/Picture folders to my SD to give me an extra 1.5gb of internal space.
