LG G8s Demo retail how to get more storage space - LG G8 Questions & Answers

i recently purchased a lg g8 demo of supposedly 128gb, but i can only use 4gb.
I don't want to switch to another room, as I have read that the wifi doesn't work. So I'm just looking for more storage.
With a file explorer I noticed that some repeated folders occupy much of the memory and I would like to know if they can be removed with some adb command.

HI what is the path of those files I am interested in knowing Have you managed to root your brother lg g8?

Don't think there's an adb command to remove them. But why not just delete the folders from the highest level with a file manager? Just click the beginning directory and select delete?
They look strange to me, odd name, all created with the same date, and taking up tremendous amounts of space. If u didn't create them, delete them. My opinion anyway.
cheers

Theres actually just not a 128gb storage chip on those demos...safe to say its a 32
gb chip

How have you able to obtain 32 gb of space?

how did you free up more space ??????????????? If it is not too much trouble, could you explain plis .something that nobody does on the entire internet?

I was also able to unlock, root, and get the wifi working and it really only has 32gb of space.

I'm from Brazil and I use google translator, if you have the patience I can help you.

Please let us know how you have done it.

whats up cortez! didn't know you were on here too! (aznprid214 on hofo)
does this program take up resourses in order to hide? Currently i did the registry edit and used jayshidesim. anyone know if this is more or less resources than jaysim?
i doubt it... it's probably a cab file used to automatically make the "hide sim" registry edit. won't know for sure until i/we have an opportunity to try it.

I'm a little confused here with this one. I have all the contents of my sd card at 3 places. As you can see I have SDcard0 and emulated and inside emulated I have 2 folders 0 and legacy all 3 folders contain the same 55 items which are the contents of my SD. Which ones I have to delete? I have the same free storage as before so the files aren't duplicated.

They're symlinked, don't delete any of them.
Google has made a little bit of backward compatibility is all, it has the files where Google wants them, and then has places they've previously been linked to that so that old programs don't break and the files still go where they belong.
This stuff is just symlinked behind the scenes. Just use /sdcard as allways, which will show all the files as well.
And no it has nothing to do with support for legacy apps(as mentioned these allways just refer to /sdcard). This has to due with the addition of multiple users on Android tablets, and hench the filesystem will need to make place for several storages with one for each account.(with you being the only user, number 0 in this case)
And no do not touch any of them..
Well... the symlinking was in there long before 4.2, it's on every data media device since Honeycomb. It does serve the function of legacy app control, or more accurately, it serves the function of making data media devices compatible with SDcard devices. It seems Google is putting it to further use by having multi-user symlink /sdcard to the /data section that belongs to the current user.

EDIT: sorry this was kind of off topic. The short answer being that it's like that for a variety of reasons and it's ok for it to do that.
Thanks for the replies. so if i change something to any of these folders the other 2 will change as well?

Help with ROM memory (Android Revolution HD)

Hi to all.
I have a problem with the ROM "Android Revolution HD 33.1.
The ROM is amazing, but I believe I do something wrong. I installed ROM and it works very well (in HTC One X). But the internal space (6,76GB total) is busy. I had only 1,4 gb free. And in the configuration of the phone, it tell me that 500mb are in apps and 4,82 in "other" stuff.
Anyone know why happen this? Because in the previous version of this ROM I had enough space, but in this version...
Maybe the reason are the tweaks installed? I installed most part of them, to improve perfomance.
Thanks a lot for the help . And sorry for my english, I dont talk it very well.
Regards
I also had this with stock rom. The "other" is the system i guess

Hi Angelo, thanks for respond me.
Really? Because I believe that other version of "Android Revolution" (version 17) take less space in memory than this. With version stock I dont remember, but sure that take a lot of memory too.
Maybe this is because instaling the ROM I put some tweaks, one of them have separate partitions to /home, etc.
Anyway you may have reason, and "other" is all the system.
Thanks a lot

New to OS, serious file management issue

Hey everyone. Since I am new to Lineage OS (18.1), I have been reading many of the threads here hoping to learn from others, mistakes and knowledge. But recently I have had an issue with file management. Originally I was going to post a thread asking how I can delete or at least disable the native Files app, but after reading a few threads on a similar subject, I realize I would be heading into issues if I did successfully delete it. So, instead I will explain the issue(s) I am facing and then see what any of you educated peers (and in the past, lifesavers) have to offer for advice. I love this OS so I don't want to have to go back, but if I can't resolve this issue, I have no choice.
Okay, so the native files app cannot see the /emulated/Android/data or /emulated/Android/obb folders at all. Every other file management app I have installed (too many actually) can see those folders which would be fine but there are a few apps asking me to approve access to those folders or subfolders therein, and it ALWAYS opens the native Files app to accomplish that. So there are a few apps I cannot use at all till I can figure that part out.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, I am a heavy user of the Autosync app and every new device I install it in, on first run, in the settings, I need to Enable Write Access. Pressing that again, ALWAYS opens the native files app. Although the native Files app can see the SD card/External Storage, the Use this Folder button is greyed out and when I attempt to press it anyways it states, "Can't use this folder - To protect your privacy, Choose another folder".
I am sure there is an easy way around all this but it is becoming annoying, to be as nice as possible. I hope I am just overlooking something cause I would rather feel like a n00b dumbass instead of having to lose this new (to me) and wonderful OS, or even worse, lose access to several frequently used apps. Thanks for reading and more thanks if you are able to help!

Question 70GB system space

Hi. Anyone know why latest OneUi 5.0 takes 70GB system storage?
I believe that system should take about 10-15GB like clear Android 13 (Mi9T Pro - 12GB, MiPad 5 - 16GB), but not 70.
Anyone know what is happening in the system directories?

Mine says 39gb so I think both are wrong
I have mine at 106GB, wiping cache didn't do anything.
Mine is extremely debloated, I wonder if that has anything to do with mine being so low comparatively...

Is it a magisk module?
goodlock module is it
Nevermind
Tempus Fugit
I trust the OS. As long as I have a lot of free space, I don't care how much the system takes.
Is there another vesy to remove old system files? Why are they there, short of a system recovery?

I tried cleaning my internal storage a while ago and noticed my system storage increased to 110GB, lmao.
Update on this: I did a factory reset to see if it'll do anything.
From 111GB, it went down to 38GB, but after completely restoring all my apps, files and everything, it went back up to 58GB. Not bad considering I freed up 50GB+.
I suspect the reason my system files bloated like that is because I have a habit of flashing roms without wiping, especially when the beta came out.
