I don't know why this isn't more of an issue for others. I have 2 One S phones in use and I have constant battles with both to free up app storage. Are SMS/MMS using up app storage? Photos are definitely not, right? I don't really see what else to clean up considering I have everything I can moved to phone storage and have an app cache cleaner running twice a day automatically.

I did cobble together all of the various threads and somehow figured out how to get a working CM10.2 on my 3rd One S. I see the same amount of space is partitioned for app storage, but there's about 2GB free on a factory reset phone (that's with gapps installed too). I'd gather there was a lot less free on a stock/factory reset phone because of all of the included bloatware.
[HTC One S] Dam4rusxp:
Do you have Youtube preloading enabled? I don't remember where the videos are saved but that could be a cause. If not, you should give the storage menu in the settings a look, and let us know, which app is using up all the space.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
I fight with my SD storage, usually over TWRP backups, of which I only now keep 2. I have so much internal storage, I was tempted at one time to flash hboot 2.16 firmware to give a unified storage area, so I could use more of the internal. I can only imagine you play games on your phone, as I have tried downloading them periodically, only to be confronted with downloads of many hundreds of MB...
[HTC One S] lexluthor:
No, there actually aren't large games on either phone. SMS/MMS takes up internal/app storage? On both phones, I've got as many apps as I can loaded on SD and clear the cache, but I still get down to maybe 400MB free and eventually down into the 250MB free range and that's where the phone starts complaining when installing/updating apps.

Is there any non-root app that will tell me what exactly is using up internal/app storage? When I look in the applications screen, there's really nothing obviously/abnormally large. How can I see how much SMS is taking up?

EDIT: I see Textra is taking up 250MB on one phone. Isn't Textra just reading from system messaging storage? Shouldn't I see message storage somewhere else and textra should just be small?

Now also, what's this about hboot 2.16? There's some other firmware I can load that will allow me to have more than 2.2GB of application storage? The directions for root/recovery/firmware/rom were all over the place as it was (so many different threads and none of them really did such a great job of putting it all together), so maybe I missed this.
[HTC One S] benyto:
FWIW, I used Textra for a while to test it out. At one point all but a few of my texts disappeared from the default messaging app, but I could still read all of my messages from within Textra. SMS Backup & Restore was only backing up the few texts that were visible from within the stock messaging app. Based on that behavior, I'd say Textra was storing copies of messages somewhere else.

Don't click on video camera! The camera driver will crash, and this causes the high battery usage. Panorama or photo camera works fine and won't cause high battery drain after using.

This is a problem with Android since pretty much day 1. A little Googling will show you thousands of threads over the past few years about the bug. Google still to this day has never fixed it.

It most commonly occurs when trying to save wallpaper pictures. Fixing usually requires a wipe of cache, clearing defaults and cache on the Download Manager, and rebooting. None of which seem to be a definite fix. It's a guessing game each time.

I chatted with the author of a popular podcast app and he said the Android download manager gets worse with each version. His app uses their own manager just to avoid issues.

This is really a general question and not for the development forum. But, neither are compatible with AOSP. You could try Swype and Pure Calendar for some good and similar alternatives.

1 more question

how to remove red letters?

i can solve this in 2.16 hboot .but dont know how in 2.15?
[HTC One S] lexluthor:
I just checked my phones (a One S and a Galaxy S3) and textra definitely shares texts with the system messaging. Still not sure then why it's showing Textra using 55MB (and 250MB on the other One S) in the app list.

The One S has something like 2.2GB of internal/app storage. Is there no app that can show me a breakdown of exactly what's using that app?
[HTC One S] nicknc:
I think you're expectations are a little skewed. This phone only has ~12gb of storage available for user use. Hboot 2.15 partitions this storage into 2gb for data and 10gb as a simulated sdcard. Hboot 2.16 just lumps it all together into one big 12gb partition, but is only compatible with a select few ROMs and recoveries.

There is no way to flash a ROM and enable space that wasn't there before. If your daughters are filling up the phone's data partition now, then they will as well with any other ROM. 2gb is a ton of space for apps, as all data (apps and user) should be saving to the SD card. So either you have a goofy app that truly is filling up your data partition, or it's a perception issue.

Flash CM on there and you will get rid of bloat (aside from cm bloat like Apollo, voice+, cm account, whisper push, DSP manager, etc...), which may give you the perception of having more space. Or not if it truly is a rogue app issue.

---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------

Lol......buddy.
[HTC One S] lexluthor:
Agree on all of that. Thanks for explaining 2.16 a bit. Not going to go with that.

Yes, another ROM will remove some bloat apps that I can't remove otherwise. That could help a bit. I'm just a little surprised more people aren't fighting to free up application storage. If I don't know about moving apps to phone storage partition, I would have been out of storage even much earlier. . I don't think it's a rogue app, this texting file does seem pretty large and I'm seeing the same thing on 2 phones (both using textra). Unless textra is double storing stuff (I don't think so) or the same thing on both is using a lot of storage (probably not either), this is just how it is with 2GB storage. One the phone with only 55MB of messaging, I do have it up to 650MB free now, so that's not too bad.

Still, back to the question, is there any app that would give me a breakdown of the application storage. I haven't found one that will make that clear.
[HTC One S] nicknc:
Any root explorer, like ES will allow you to check folder sizes, which in turn will allow you to narrow down which folder is large (and identify which app is misbehaving).

There are a number of tools in the market that check for storage as well. I've used some in the past, but your best bet is to just do a complete wipe and install a custom ROM from fresh. It will afford you a more granular control over what apps go on the phone. Most people don't fight to add free up more storage because it isn't necessary. I have upwards of 140 apps on my phone and never have problems with internal storage. 2gb is a lot! Like [MENTION=2101224]el_smurfo[/MENTION], I have more of a problem filling up my SD partition.

This is not an area over which you should focus so intently. Messing around in your data partition can quickly screw quite a bit up, and such heavy focus on how much of that partition is free may tempt you to start deleting things that you shouldn't. Try CM, and see how it goes. It should be better.

Last idea- I know you hate him, but if you asked superman, he could scan your phone with his x-ray vision and identify which app is misbehaving pretty quick. I know this may be simply untenable as a solution, but it bears consideration, and could save you a lot of time-- time that you could instead spend on world domination.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
Then learn how to use the search function... This has nothing to do with the ROM, it's related to hboot and you're off-topic.

Now back to your question... You can do that only if you're S-Off and it's done the same way as for the 2.16 hboot...that is, by editing it. If you don't feel too lucky, I suggest you not to do it by yourself. You can find already modified hboots (that have the red marks taken out) by searching in the proper thread HERE. Flash them in fastboot
[HTC One S] benyto:
I'm not sure what testing you did to invalidate my suspicion that Textra stores its own copies of messages, but whatever testing that may have been seems to be flawed. I just re-installed Textra and not only does it keep its own copies of messages, it keeps copies of other data as well.

Within the /data/data/com.textra/databases/ directory is an sqlite database named messaging.db that had the content all of my text messages.

The /data/data/com.textra/files/db/media-thumb/ directory contained thumbnail images of my MMS messages.

The /data/data/com.textra/files/db/media-body/ directory contained copies of my MMS messages, including text and images.

You can drill down through the filesystem from the command line to see what is using what, assuming you have root access. Using either "abd shell" or a terminal emulator app on the phone itself, type "su" to gain root, and then type "du -sm /data/* | sort -n" to get a list of the size of all objects (files, directories) on the /data partition, sorted by size in megabytes. You can then repeat the process for the directories in /data/ to find out what within that directory is using what amount of storage (example: "du -sm /data/app/* | sort -n" to see the size of everything in the /data/app/ directory). Repeat as needed for other directories.

As others have stated, the 2+ GB of app storage on this phone seems quite reasonable to me. I have yet to run in to an issue with it.
[HTC One S] lexluthor:
I do not have root on these phones and would rather keep it that way, but your instructions would be good if I did.

As far as Textra, I do see that if I go into Textra and Stock Messenger, I see the same information. I assumed that meant that Textra is using/sharing the standard messaging database. Are you saying that Textra is keeping a 2nd copy of all of the messages and images? That's interesting if so. I wonder how much space I'd free up on the phone where it shows Textra has 250MB by uninstalling Textra. Since stock is still seeing the messages, I wouldn't think I'd lose anything. Might be a bit risky since I can't back up MMS without root. I'll email the Textra developer and ask if that's in fact what they are doing.

If they are duplicating over 250MB of messaging, I could see why the phone might be low on application storage.

Thanks for checking.
[HTC One S] benyto:
That is what I'm saying.

I installed Textra today to verify my suspicion, and then uninstalled it afterwards. All of my messages were still accessible from the stock messaging app that comes with CM11. You should be safe, but remember, the reason I got rid of Textra in the first place a while back was because nearly all of my text messages were removed at some point and unavailable for backup. I didn't keep it around long enough to try and replicate the problem to determine what may have caused it.

Anyhow, this is pretty OT for this thread. Best of luck.
[HTC One S] lexluthor:
Sorry about getting too far OT.

The textra duplicate database is probably a good part of the reason these phones are having trouble with storage.

Thanks!

Does this work with elemental kernel ?
[HTC One S] dionieins:
Glad to hear this but do you prefer cm 10.2 over maximus hd?

I'm currently using the last one and I feel so comfortable with this that it's hard to imagine that there's something even more smooth, stable and battery efficient..

Let me know your thoughts!

Cheers
[HTC One S] mikronac.ns:
Man, are you serious? Elemental Is sense based kernel.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
This is not the place to start a debate sense vs non-sense ROMs. It a simple matter of taste and pro/cons arguments are on both sides. I could say the same about CM or other KitKat ROMs...stable, smooth, good battery...I personally just got tired with the sense look and feel so I wanted to have something else and to personalize it to my taste (and don't tell me you can change your status bar icons too, because it's not only this). And CM has reached version 11 so it's also the fact some people love to have latest Android version on their phones. The ones that are still on CM10.2 haven't make up their minds if they should go to CM11 and they wait to see some feedback.

The added requirement of having 2.16 hboot for MaximusHD could also be a stopper for some people, giving all the issues some had with it or downgrading after that to 2.15

Toggle 3G, H, and H+?

SO I have an interesting issue. My data connection (H+) seems extremely shaky. Working with T-Mobile, they had me switch to 2G only, which provides a MUCH more stable connection. I'd like to do more testing (oh, and yes, Fast-Dormancy is off), and am trying to figure out a way to tell it to only use 3G, H, or H+ (at least toggle between them). Is this even possible? From what I noticed, if I turn CDMA on, it tries to connect to either 3G, H, or H+ depending on what is available.

I don't think this is an issue with the ROM, but would like to do as much as possible.

Thanks in advance,

~Navik
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
I am very positive it is a problem with the ROM. There has to be some secret sauce missing, as I don't remember (and HTC wouldn't sell) a phone that spends so much time flipping back and forth in bands when running stock Sense. I have suspected that the fix for the "dropped signal" was only a patch, and the true solution is still out there. Haven't checked lately, but last time I did a logcat, it was still full of RIL errors.
[HTC One S] Navik57:
Hmm. OK, so, what can I do to help with narrowing this down? Still getting the hang of going through Logcat. I am wondering if you would still be getting those radio errors if you tried switching to 2G only.
[HTC One S] el_smurfo:
Probably not, but spending most of your day on edge is no way to use a smartphone. Was just thinking about setting up some Llama profiles to do the EDGE/3G toggle for me, since I always seem to end up in a radio switching dead zone for multiple minutes, just when the wife is trying to tell me something "important"...gets me in trouble every day.
[HTC One S] Navik57:
Lol, how does it get you in trouble... when you have a wife... you're ALWAYS in trouble. =-p

I agree that it is no way to use a smartphone, but I suffered through it for a week, just to check stability. I'm trying to understand how it is all working, and narrow it down to a certain cell technology that we are having issues with. So far it seems it is CDMA and WCDMA, but would like to test the individual protocols.

If I can even use CDMA, I'd be happy, because GSM is REALLY crawling.
