My problem is that I got the application Lock 2.0 and it downloaded some files, the thing is, it didn't download to my sd card, it all went to my internal memory, so i went from around 17mb up to 67mb now.
I got the app from a theme on xda just yesterday, i don't remember which theme though. I didn't flash the theme onto my phone, I just pulled the application from it, so that might have been my mistake there.
I've uninstalled Lock 2.0 but the downloaded files remain on my phone, so is there a way I can get rid of them by deleting them using Astro? If so, can someone tell me the directory it's in?
I've tried looking through the folders in my phone already, but I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to be looking for. All I could think of was a folder named Lock 2.0 or something similar to that.

If you don't know where the files are, how do you know for sure it was the app that put them there? Just asking. And if some files got put on your internal how did it go up and not down.

I meant that my phone only had around 17mb of memory used up and after Lock 2.0 downloaded its files, I had 67mb used up.
I know this because I have the internal memory widget on my homescreen and I checked the used up memory after I flashed cyanogen's new rom, that was right before I installed Lock 2.0.
Have you cleared your cache and data to see if that will go up? Alot is stored in your browser.

Okay, I just did it, but it was under 3mb of cache, so that didn't really help.
I've had Lock 2.0 do something similar. It was downloading the default skin while I was driving, and I went from a 3g to a Edge area.
I'm not sure if the coverage switch caused it, but the download took forever.
By the time noticed that something might be wrong and killed the DL, it was too late and I started getting the "your internal memory is getting low!" notification.
I'm pretty sure it installed the 50MB skin to my internal memory and made my phone unusable. I eventually had to do a factory data reset and start over.

Okay, thanks for the suggestion, I also thought about a factory reset, but I'm not sure if my apps will still function properly after, since I'm running Apps2SD.
I assume my apps will be safe from the factory reset, but I've never actually done a factory reset, after I got the Apps2SD. Can someone tell me what will happen to my apps on my sd card if I do a reset though?

your apps will be fine after a wipe.. btw lock 2.0 does install the skin to your internal memory, it give you a warning when downloading to only download the one you want because it goes to internal memory.. you should have deleted it before uninstalling to see if it would work.

I don't remember it asking about downloading some files, I just remembered clicking on the app and just throwing it on my bed, from then on it just downloaded the files on its own.
Okay, just did the reset and it did wonders for my phone, only a few apps are screwed but a reinstall should fix them.
Thanks for the help guys.

I've had this .cab kicking around but never tried it till today. Seems to work great on my Wing. Not quite sure everything it backs up. It only works when installed to the phone -- won't work if you install it to the Storage Card.
It creates a file on your Storage Card used to backup your phone.
My guess is, that you could create the backup image file and then remove/uninstall the program to save space and then if you ever needed it, you could reinstall the program and just run the backup file. Or just leave the program on your phone.
Anyway, I don't know if anyone wants it but here it is.
Cheers!
This is neat to have. My question is, does this backup my profiles in the programs (like games) installed so next time I install/backup the program it will be restored? I'm thinking about flashing to new ROM...
Thanks.
no
you have to copy that stuff from either the app data folder or your program's folder usually
i been using this since i got my wing. this back-up every single thing from reg to program data..

I believe the answer you was seeking was in the first post. . . .
The PPCGeeks forum shows some users experiencing major issues with this software - beware .. ! Hard resets necessitated etc,,,
I have a weird problem with HTC Data Backup... I first installed it on the SD card because on the page I downloaded it from it didn't say you have to install it on the device, later I saw some people mention it in the comments... I've uninstall it and installed it again on the device, but I can't find it anywhere - it's not in the Programs, or Program Files, although I see it in Add/Remove applications... How do I start the program?
First: I'm not a noob. I don't need noob-like advise. I'm not asking a question here, just frustrated with my Hero right now.
I have Fresh 2.1.2. It's awesome. I recently encountered an error and I don't think it's any inherent fault of the ROM. I think there might be an issue with either the SD card or the way the phone interacts with it. This is not a physical problem, intuition and savvy tell me that it's a software issue.
There are two (likely related) problems:
PROBLEM 1: At some point, shortly after flashing Fresh 2.1.2 (not toast) My phone became unable to "find" mp3's and images on my memory card. I've tried lots of things. A complete reformatting of the SD card, reflashing the rom, reflashing again from stock, different music and gallery apps. Nothing works. Everywhere I go I'm given, and I hear, noobish advise like "eject and remount the card", "put your music in the /sdcard/Music directory" etc. Of course those were the first things I tried before even asking for help. [Reminder: I'm not asking for help in this thread.] Once in a random while the vanilla music app will scan for music and either finds none or hangs forever. Other music apps won't even try. For the record I have tried--
HTC music app
Vanilla (Android 2.1) Music App
Mixzing
TuneWiki
Meridian
DoubleTwist (released this week)
Results are the same across the board. I have also deleted all music and image folders and files. Then adding them back after a few reboots one by one with different music files. I CAN play music by selecting the files from a file browser like ES File Explorer and Astro.
PROBLEM 2: The Sd card no longer mounts. i get no USB debugging icon in the notification bar and it will only charge. I don't get a choice of mount options--nothing. But it does charge. Because of this I can no longer ADB. All apps can still see and use the SD card as storage and A2SD is also working as advertised. I tried backing up only the most important files then putting them back after a clean wipe and repartition of the SD card.
PROBLEM 3: I'm getting a lot of silly advise. I wouldn't be on xda if I needed simple-ass advise.
Hope I'm not offending anyone but I know this type of thing happens to most of us when we need help with a real issue.

I isolated this issue because this also happened to me. I was showing a friend of mine (who also owns a Hero) all the things I have done with A2SD. He liked the boot animation of Fresh 2.1.2, so I put that on his phone (his runs Fresh 1.1). After I searched his phone for the boot animation files, I disconnected his phone from ADB and put mine, only to find out ADB wasn't working. Thought this may have been the switching of the phone, so I killed the adb server and restarted it. No luck. I rebooted the phone...no luck. Checked to see if USB Debugging was on, and it was. I turned the debugging off, then on again to see if maybe it's a setting issue...no such luck on the fix.
Ended up reflashing the rom again to fix it.
Have you tried rebooting your phone?
Sounds like you need to try a different SD card buddy. If that does'nt work then try a different Rom, if that does'nt work then nandroid back to a 1.5 or ruu to 1.5 and start over.
Your problems are there because you allow them to be there. If and when you RUU and repeat the root process once more essentially making your Hero a "Virgin" again you should be able to fix above stated issue and be on your way.
If none of these work, then your answers are not in XDA, but on the phone with sprint's insurance department.
have a great day.

Hi, Im trying to exchange my phone and Im having issues with getting the phone bone stock. I used odin 1 click, did a factory data reset, and all my pictures, app folders and various other things are still on the internal SD card. I was using titanium backup, I think thats the cause (not sure though)
I also just flashed JH3, super rooter, and the OC kernel. But as far as I can tell, those are back to factory. I just cant wipe all my data and I dont know if doing it manually will clear up everything.
Suggestions/questions? Thanks!
I even tried the master clear. I can still see files for shootme, sl4a, clockworkmod, update.zip's, and tons of other folders including busybox
Did you try connecting your phone to your computer, mounting the sd card, then open the driver than your sd card is on and manually delete the files that way? You can move the titanium back up to an external sd card and see if that helps.
Go to Titanium Backup support and shoot them a pm, they got back to me within a day when I had questions if you think it's related to that.

I can do that, But what Im worried about is all the application data (including data for apps that require root) wont be deleted. Im not sure exactly what I would have to do to remove that as well. I wanted to leave it there, so that if I did manage to wipe it, Id know for sure everything was gone.
Ill also try sending them a message. Is it on that forum site they link to? Its not very clear as to how to contact them

I pm'd Shazd, I have the pro donated version so I had everything backed up, moved the folder for Titanium Backup and the folder for Titanium license to my exteral card. Then I flashed with Odin to stock and swapped my phone for a new one. Then I put the sd card in the new phone, connected to my computer and moved the files to the internal sd, installed Titanium from the market and when it installed my entire backup was there, settings, apps, and data were all there. I did a restore and everything was just as my old phone. Then I installed Unleash The Beast, the cool battery indicator, thanks to Designgears and the rest is history. When I flashed with Odin, all evidence of root were gone. AT&T didn't even check the phone, all I said was random shutdowns and a crack in the screen and they swapped it.
I have the paid donate version as well. I mean, I have the backup saved to my microsd and on my computer, Its just weird, I mean for some reason its not wiping. Im literally trying everything. I had a backup with clockwork mod and I re-rooted with 1 click root so that I could run that... It may be super rooter, Im starting to think thats more the case. But I really am just stumped
I flashed with Odin3 one click, maybe that's the difference. What did you use exactly?

Both versions lol. 1-click and version 1.0 or whatever by flashing the stock firmware Jh6 from samsung-firmwares.com. I even tried a factory data reset
It may just be files in my internal SD card themselves that arent being deleted... but Im not really sure
It didn't wipe all of my info when I did master clear and then doing the one click wipe. I'm bit sure why it wouldn't either but it did remove most of what I wanted gone.
Sweet life
Huh... Well I did a bunch of clear cache things, wiped my internal sd, and went throught my phone with root explorer and deleted whatever else I found. Wow that was a huge hassle
I think the best thing to do in the future is clear all user data through clockwork, then use odin for master clear then odin start to do it all. It is a hassle that's for sure.
The SD cards (internal and external) are not cleared with a full system wipe. When you delete all data through a system clear, it deletes everything stored internally to apps - in the phone memory where apps are installed.
Although the internal SD card is not really an SD card, the system treats it as an SD card. You can unmount both internal and external SD cards and then format them - that will wipe all data. Follow that with a system reset or Odin 1 click recovery and everything on your phone is factory new.
The phone is behaving as designed.
I was tinkering round this morning and looked into my devices storage and saw that 27gb of 32gb were being used.
Did some math on my own:
Apps: 2.82gb
Music: 3.23gb
Photos: 1.12gb
Other: 19.85gb:
-Nandroids: 9gb
-Titanium Back up 1gb
2 roms: 1.5gb
Somewhere in the "Other" category something is eating up 9gb of space. I used my file explorer and couldn't pin anything that big down. I am going to offload my nandroids but I shouldn't have to.
Anyone else run into this or know what this 9gb "other" hog could be
Is there an app or system setting I am missing to ID this?

Your 'other' is really suspicious. Mine is ~7GB. I'd do a factory reset, easiest way IMO.
If you're flashing roms or doing backups with any other apps (CWM or something). I'm guessing they would go there. Check your download folder as well if you do a lot of downloading.
You may also try installing airdroid and using the desktop filemanager to whittle down your list as well.
Download Disk Usage. It shows you visually whats taking up space. It's amazing.
Thanks for advice using disk usage. I don't know why I didn't reinstall that sooner.
I did some digging and searching around the interwebs and found out this is a known issue. Other people have noticed it in droves. From my early intel: when you delete files you lose data blocks and they are marked as bad. If you ran dsk chk they would come up as corrupt. People are losing more storage space than I did.
2 solutions came up:
1. Reformat your SD: Copy everything to PC>reformat>copy everything back....time consuming but worked from what I could tell
2. There is an update that has been released overseas(asia, india, etc) that seems to fix this issue. It's a known HTC ONE issue so maybe someday I will see an update that will fix it.

I couldn't just let this rest. I like to flash roms and knew I would need strorage space for some nandroids in the future. Here are somethings I tried and had issues with.
Formatting the SD card: I could not for the life of me get this done.
-Nothing in TWRP
-Couldn't do it in windows
-Couldn't mount the sd in TWRP or regularly and get it to show up in windows file explorer as a drive to format
Eventual solution:
I formated the data in TWRP using the format data option. I copied everything over before I did it. When I came back I flashed a new rom and was still missing 7 gb. No apps, no music, nothing. SD card was empty still only showed 25 gb available.
Conclusion: I think I have some bad sectors in their somewhere. I read that I could go back completely to stock and try to star this whole process over.
One question: Can I unlock using HTCdev as many times as I want or is it a one time thing?
Anyone else in the same boat?

If you go back completely to stock, your bootloader will probably still be unlocked (unless you relock and use an RUU). The code you got to disable your bootloader the first time around will work however many times you want. To be honest though, I wouldn't be surprised if that 7GB were used by the system ROM/frameworks and I'd be even less surprised if you still found files on your SD card in a .Trashes folder or something from earlier. Formatting data tends to leave weird remnants all over the place.
Also, +1 to the Google Music thing. Definitely shows up in other for me.

Do you have a custom recovery? If so, try running Fix permissions. It'll tell you for one if it hits any errors (because it finds files it can't change perms for), and may help with the issue (or use the Fix permissions tool in ROM Manager if you'd rather not use recovery).

Is there a way to reformat the SD card/partition? I don't think the TWRP method really reformatted it. Just erased everything.
Clockwork gives you the ability to set a swap partition but not a true reformat

Have you tried TWRP's advanced wipe? If you haven't, it's worth a shot, but I cannot stress enough that you should be careful. This is exactly the kind of problem that you can bork your phone trying to fix for no good reason.

Your exactly correct on the last point. I am going to keep listening and looking. I think/hope/pray the update the internationals got can be applied some way in the future and may help out a bit. Just going to have to utilize some cloud storage a little better.
it's not totally/technically broke and I am not going to do more harm.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions
I've been having the same problem, but notice something interesting. My phone said I had almost 20GB in the other category, and I didn't know why.
I downloaded disk usage to get a detail view of what's going on in my storage and I was able to clear 12GB with just deleting old downloads, TWRP backups, Titanium Backups. Still cleaning house.
Also after doing some research, the data that's stored by your apps (ext. PS3 Trophies is a 8mb download, buts it's total size is 31mb on the phone) is counted in the Other section and not part of the app data. So the more apps u have like this installed, the more likely the Other section will balloon in size.
Remember, when u remove and app, it's stored data is still in the phone storage.

I use disk useage but it doesn't even show my max storage space as 32gb. It shows 26gb. See Screenshot: So I have 6gb that aren't even registering as available storage. I was trying to clean out some old app storage but the space they use is so small. Would they be worth it? I think the fact I am missing 6 gb is more troubling.
I could be wrong, but doesn't the phone only have 27GB of formatted space?

any device with internal memory will lose some. this is the exact reason i havent gotten one yet bc im praying that sprint will get the 64gb version. i will say that if they are going to advertise a device at xyz gb then they should build in the extra needed for system so we actually get what we pay for. cloud storage and otg are there but still a slight pain in the butt.

Is OTG standard in Android? Does the One need to be rooted?
I'm running Kitkat 4.4.2 from insertcoin. The Storage space is 25.4gb, and I'm using 16gb of it, but my phone says I'm out of free space. I tried Clearing out all my data from my SD, and it still said my SD had about 10gb in use. I'm thinking maybe its some system data, but what part of the OS could be taking up 10gb?
Also, I've got some sort of audio dump going on under /Data/Audio that I have to keep deleting through android commander. how can I turn off the auto audio dump?
You have any nandroid backups? Each of those, including data, will be around 2-3 gb. In TWRP they are in a folder in the TWRP directory. Don't know about CWM.

This happened to me once. The way I dealt with it was I transferred all of my important files (e.g. pics, vids, nands, etc) to my computer, then formatted the internal storage and installed a fresh ROM.
and its still okay? I tried that about a week ago, but I didn't flash a fresh rom, I just reformatted the storage partition and I gained about 6gb, which has now disappeared.
Try a few storage apps from Playstore.. I can't recommend something but there are a few which will get you a good idea.
reinstalling the ROM seems to have fixed my problem, but now I've got a new problem. I guess I should make a new thread for it though. thanks for the help!

try downloading diskusage from the playstore. it should give you a pretty accurate view of your completely usage and where its coming from and then you can go about clearing space up
