Cao, how about a 3000 mAh battery in a backpack for $15? http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/06...y-for-only-14/

[M.B Co]

wat da shit!

Seems like my available space is shrinking without any new installations of apps,etc....

Cache in several apps seems small tho

3gb to 2gb free....wth

Using the following for storage analysis

ES File Explorer
SD Maid
Titanium Backup

Kinda neato. Wish it was in blue or black or maybe some kind of dark green, DNW to walk around with red backpack.

I actually have something like it already, though. Remember bag phones from way back in the day? Well I got two of the most advanced bag phones ever made just before you couldn't get them anymore, over a decade ago, to be permanently installed in company vehicles. I kept the bags and 2800 mAh 12v batteries (should be aboot 6000 mAh pushing USB's 5v). The bag makes a nice case for carrying a bunch of portable electronics and the battery can charge them all.


It's been collecting dust since back in the day when USB might still have been a gimmick...if I was going to use it now it'd have USB ports.

If rooted, use a disk usage app to find where your space is going. SD Maid may have that function in a menu, I can't remember. The idea is that you need something that's going to start at / and tell you how much space each folder/file uses, then let you drill down.

So you've checked cache. How about the dalvik cache? Could be full of junk. Get much email on your phone? Could be email.

I am rooted.

I've checked and deleted cache on several apps. Gallery, chrome, and others. Even checked the com.sec.android.gallery3d trick. Said it was close 4gb but that didn't free up space.

I do a lot of email on my phone for work.

I haven't check dalvik yet.

[stonehenge]

do you have Vine installed? Read that it can build up quite a cache.

do you make lots of nandroid backups? those add up quick.

hmm

[theholycow]

Nandroid backups go on the SD card. I assume we're talking about /data...

[stonehenge]

well it depends if he has an sdcard installed in his, his internal storage is probably 16gb so he may have everything on there

[theholycow]

You people with your fancy-schmancy internal memory big enough that you don't have to fucking hack every goddamn thing to use the SD card.

The ROM I installed today takes up less space and I'm going to try to keep my app-installing to a minimum, but I've got link2sd ready to go as soon as I need it.

[stonehenge]

my gnex has 32gb internal

no sd slot at all

fak CM has softbooted on me twice today.

[Cez★]

gonna try tweetcaster. fkn carbon and no photo uploads pissed me off

[stonehenge]

this new one looks pretty nice: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ers.hoot2tweet

haven't tried it though

[Cez★]

mf i already downlaoded tweetcaster. works nice. already uploaded first pic easily just for that already lol

[M.B Co]

No vine installed

Only 1 nandroid on internal. Little over 1GB, no biggie

1 rom and gapps but that's small

I did find some culprits.

Play Music....why the hell does it take up data? Never used to.

Also found ton of cache in Drive. Yet I use it alot as well.

It be crazy. Somehow I gained 600mb over night. Maybe it took awhile for the gallery data/cache to clear out.

Assuming thats cache and data combined?

Do you stream with Google music or only play local songs?

I stream what's in my play. That the issue?

[stonehenge]

it could be, i'm assuming it has to cache all the music somewhere as it streams

idk though, I only play music thats stored on my phone

[theholycow]

Yeah, all streaming technologies cache locally, though if you're not allowed to rewind/skip or random access then it ought to only cache one or two songs at a time.

For Drive, consider using another app instead of Google's. There are plenty of multi-cloud-storage apps, but I like ES File Explorer:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...gs.android.pop
It's small, packed to the gills with features, and always works great. Offers cloud storage access to a bunch of services including Drive.

[stonehenge]

speaking of caches, i opened my gallery the other day to find out that tapa stored all of caos tit/skeet gifs in a folder

classy

[M.B Co]

Now we are back to normal.

Some off reason I had play music to store offline.

[stonehenge]

[M.B Co]

[Cez★]
