Had this issue as well. I had to....
1. flash stock ATT KDZ ... that brought back the 32gb memory.
2 flashed (in my case) e988 rom with TOT file in LGPST.
This way I had all my memory back and the ROM I wanted.

but how can I flash a custom ROM and keeping all the free space?
tried sphinx and slimbean, both keep hiding the original internal sd partition.
when I format data through CWM, then I can see my old files on the full 23gb free space.
When you factory wipe and flash a new rom there are old files still on the internal storage that don't get deleted. Those files take up space, but don't read under storage. Get ES File Explorer from the Play Store. Go to device>data>media. There you probably have your old downloads, media and pics. Delete that whole media folder and your space is back. (Backup or copy the files if needed before deleting) You may have to reboot your phone.

There are so much crap in my GN's flash now (junk folders/files). It happens because when an app is uninstalled, it left over some folders/files, and I am not sure what to delete, what not to delete. Is there a zip file that I can run from ClockWorkMod to clean everything then install ROM, Gapps?
What about a factory reset either from CWM recovery or through Android settings?

or
'fastboot erase partitions'
for example, partitions can be boot, system, userdata, recovery
is userdata partition at /mnt/sdcard?
Thanks

if you erase userdata, it will erase /mnt/sdcard (/data/media) contents.
I am trying to copy two of my ringtones into the /system folder of the phone, but the device is not letting me, it keeps failing on the copy command. Anyone know if this is possible?
I am doing the following:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cd /storage/ext_sd
cp r1.ogg /system/media/audio/ringtones/
BTW, the filesystem appears to have been re-mounted in read-write mode, because the output of the "mount" command shows /system to be mounted "rw".
I have tried the above commands via an interactive adb shell, as well as through the "terminal emulator" application and I keep getting the same failure.
Thx!
this should really go in the [email protected] thread

all you have to do is put them in a folder named ringtones in the sdcard and the phone will show them in you ringtone choices
I put all the Sense ringtones on my developer edition / GPe conversion this way.
same with alarms and notifications

Which is ?
I think your problem is not permissions but space ...
Have you verified that you have enough space remaining in your system partition ?
GPE system partition is known to be tight.
Besides if you modify system partition you won't get OTAs ..
you should follow @clsA advice. I copied my ringtons/alarms/notifications in appropriates folders in my sdcard and the result is absolutely the same....
Thanks for your replies and suggestions. I have specific reasons (perhaps wrong ones) to want to store the ringtone files in /system as opposed to either sdcard. I will open a separate post about that.
With regards to writing to /system, I have since re-installed the OS, but I think you are right in that the filesystem was full.
The output of "df" now shows only 1.2MB left on the filesystem. The 2 files I have been trying to write unto it are 270KB and 16KB each. So, I just re-tried the same commands and I was able to write the two files.
The only other change I made was that I disabled the setting in SuperSU which does the "mount namespace separation". So I am not sure if that made a difference or if the filesystem was full.
I do understand that modifying /system will prevent me from doing OTA GPE updates.
Thanks!
I'm on LP 5.01 on my Nexus 10 and I also wanted to write to my /system folder but noticed there is no free space to do so. This is on a factory default reload.

Is there any way to shrink the /system partition and make /data larger?
I am aware that there are tools like link2sd (and I used them in the past) but this is not what I want.
Any comments welcome.
Regards,
George

To repartition the emmc chip you need a pit file. But i strongly recommend against that procedure. There is a chance that ur device hard bricks.
And moreover no one has ever tried that on our device.
Instead u can root ur device and use xposed + obbonsd module. It will help with moving big apps and games to sd card.
Use a class 10 sd card. good luvk

yes, but this is not what I want.... link2sd can do the same thing...
I think no one has tried that hack, it's just too risky
Don't like link2sd try Folder mount

I did.
You don't need to change PIT. GPT is sufficient in most cases as ROMs and recoveries use GPT.
system & data partitions are quite at the end of the emmc, so you can resize them w/o having to interfere with eg boot or recovery partitions. Their PIT references would still be vaiid should you need to re flash those in download mode.
Instead of repartitioning you could just use an external sdcard as /data. This just requires modification of ramdisk.
Anyway you should understand what you are doing before trying any of this..
I have a Fire TV that I am running and when using Kodi, I randomly will receive a popup from the Fire TV that says that the drive is full. I checked the Kodi application and both the data and cache is somewhat normal (no more than 200Mb combined).
I logged into my firetv and it looks like the "/data" partition is totally full...

Along with the system fonts and emulated legacy mounts. I'm assuming that I am receiving this message because of the /data mount being totally full.
The odd thing is-is that the only thing that I have on this box is Kodi and rooted it and installed busybox. There's nothing else on it! No photos (checked the size), or anything else that I'm aware of...but something must be taking up all my space.
I was wondering if anybody had any ideas of what I can remove from /data in order to free up some space or how I can stop receiving this message.
Thanks!
Apparently, I may had been wrong and /mnt/sdcard may had been full. I was in the middle of trying to update it tonight and when I put a file up there it said no space left. D'oh...
So, I'm going to try to wipe the partition after an update and hope for the best...
I have tried about 4 ROMs now. They all flash fine. However when I try to flash gapps Pico, I get an error: code 70, insufficient storage.
All images use about 800MB of space with about 60-80 MB remaining. Not enough for the Pico gapps
I tried wipe -> advanced -> resize partition on the system.
Everything was done with a full wipe. Any ideas?

Found the repartitioner zip and flashed this to resize the system. Should be good now!

Do you have a link? I'm not having much luck. In my case I can't install any version of the gapps.
