Did you do a full wipe? 11.04gb is probably not counting ROM space which is ~5gb.
If you have your phone set to auto-install apps, that could have taken up space. Plus, you might have stuff like the ROM file still in phone storage, if you delete thouse you might free up some space

You need to format all partitions from within recovery(custom) to free up space .Don't format EFS though .

Encryption unsuccessful :(

Hi, some days ago i got the "encryption unsuccessful" bug :crying: , i was using CM9 (The Wisp). I found on google a guide (for other phone) to install android on a SD partition but it requires a rom with a modified installation path. So if anyone can teach me how to do that or can help me doing it would be the best

Why don't you reflash the ROM, the guide is for Galaxy Tab 7 ! Our Mini doesn't have any External SD-Card.

Because reflashing the Rom doesn't solve the problem. All hooks to the internal memory have to be removed. I'm in the same boat...

Thank you All
i tried link2sd but Mount2SD is most effective i found..
but how can i move All system apps + data to sd-ext ?
You don't want to. Sd-ext is faster than FAT32, but you still want system apps installed internally for speed. That's why Link2SD won't link system apps; the Cronmod scripts leave the system apps alone too.

[Q] Emmc Brick fized?

There are many confusing articles around about the EMMC brickbug that causes superbricks. I was just looking for answer to a few questions.
1. Has Samsung released a solution yet to fully revive (i.e. revive lost partitions) the device back to normal?
2. Is there an official Samsung solution to get the EMMC bricked devices working again?
3. For people who have revived their devices using the custom PIT method as described by hg42, are people having issues with the phone jamming (needing restarts) despite whatever rom they use? If so, how did you resolve it?

1.) No.
2.) Yes. Bring it to support - the change the motherboard. Costs? Depending on warranty...
3.) You need a summary of all the articles? No luck for you, I'm afraid. Read, read and when you finished - read again.
There are wonderful roms here with brick-save kernels. Use them or use them not.
And last... Why do you post this in General? Ever heard of Q&A-Section?

Interesting way to answer. But greatly appreciated nevertheless. I do have further questions re your answer to 3, but I feel quite intimidated.
Those are excellent questions re the Emmc bug for the Note.
Let me give you my thoughts. For questions 1 & 2, I'm still waiting for a solution but I highly doubt
Samsung will fix it. For question 3, if you use the pit file to revive your Note, then use Official ICS or JB rom
you will end up getting freezes/lockups and maybe boot loops.
I would recommend using CM10.1 as its more stable to use. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my Note 2
and tinkering around with CM10 on my semi brick Note 1.

Why is it that when we are no longer using the areas of the partition affected, with the PIT method, it is still crashing with various roms?
Which various roms crashing for you? I don't really have a good explanation why it is crashing even using the pit file. I think the partition area affected are pretty much corrupted. I've once got the latest JB working for a very short time until it freezes up many times and its not usable at all.
I would like to go back to JB again if theres actually a fix for the freeze up issue. In the meantime, I'm using CM10.1 and its much more usable as a phone with little issues/hiccups.

For me, moved to NOTE 2. Note 1 freezes every time something is getting memory. for me, there was no solution. If someone else has a better solution than installing Slim ROM (which is the only one that works at all - only until the next freeze), please post it here.

I used this rom - the only problem is that it didnt read my sd card (original one that came with the note) despite formatting.
Any updates on this topic?

Got the same issue as lemonbarley, but less space available.
I noticed improvements once i've deleted the HIDDEN partition and made cache afterwards as exactly 128mb.

You mean the fat partition? or the ext one
Just post here any arguable question.... so far was an hell of adventure to fix the samsung.
Sd card
Its strange how these days i spend moving in cicles but today something different happen.
Appears to me that slim rom and anidroid (ics) is a bit different in comparison with paranoid rom (ics lrk)
First two have some compatibility issues. For example, on anidroid, the menu is for galaxy SII, and you cannot choose dpi.
While on slim rom you can do all that, there are screen flickers, like menu distortions, and the camera doesn't zoom at 720p.
The major difference is in how they both partition the space. This was a strange breakthrough today. Moving in cicles until this.
On first two, the phone storage is shared in two (or three) areas. while none seems to be okay on a briked phone. The second, makes the internal sd card as the (external mini sd) main addition to the phone. Why did those two make the internal storage out of the fat32 11 partion UMS. That was terrible.

Nope, but, at least for my usage pattern, 4.1.2 is rock stable.
Other than having a higher number, does KK really "give" you anything in the Note1,
that would be worth the hassle of trying to get it to work?

@lukasspro777 Would you like to elaborate on that? Obviously going out of TW will also bring some disadvantages, like the use of the S PEN, and some TW based applications which I quite enjoy: the S Note and the S Planner, just to name a few.
Obviously they can be replaced - however not something everyone is willing to do.
The major thing for me with the stock ROM is the lack of space for installing applications. Nothing is more irritating than receiving a brand new update of your favourite application and when trying to install it and get the "not enough memory" error.
I for one did get annoyed enough to try the SlimBean final stable version, and I did not go back. The ROM is fantastic, and extremely light. I had to install some new applications like the Business Calendar Pro and the matching Business tasks which I learned to enjoy (even though the visual aspect of the S Planner was better in my opinion). I also substituted the S Note with Evernote, Sketchbook mobile express and Papyrus and now it looks like a new phone.
However its not like I gained a new feature with 4.3.1 over what the stock ROM had. But after about 2 years of using it, it was taking too much time to open some applications and the general lag was all over the place. Now its not a Galaxy Note 3, but I am quite happy with this change.

I know nokiamodel91, but I don't want to swap my SD card and internal memory. I want to be able to swap my 64gb sd card and not worry that half of my applications will stop working.
I never understood why out of the 16GB internal storage only 1.9GB can be used for applications. I have the internal storage almost empty, as I save everything on the micro sd card and find it very frustrating to have internal storage space but can't use it to install applications.

I tried almost all versions of them already sir, and I think the final verdict was to wait for at least a real stable build coz the nightlies still can't compare to stable JB built cusroms with exception of Themes and appearance of the KitKat of course.
I no longer wait stock rom from SS. I love custom roms that is defference between Android and ios

[Q] Swap external to internal?

is there anyway to do the swap on the Xperia Z C6602 any stock ROM (4.2.2, 4.3, 4.4.2)?
I had searched about it, and this is what I had Found, you need to modify the vold.fstab file, which should have 3 lines, for the internal, external and USB but mine have 2 there is no line for internal, and for the 4.4 can't be since this is related to the Kitkat SD restriction which can be fixed?
I have tried several ways, on 4.2.2 and 4.3 and even 4.4.2 with no success, so what is it I'm doing wrong?

thank you for your answer, but I'm not talking about the fix for SD writing since I know about it already,
I'm talking about making my 64 GB card act like my internal so I install more apps since we can't move apps, and the RAM has nothing to do with this, I hope now I'm clear.

Bro. That's app2sd, not swap.
swap means using part of your internal memory as device's RAM, it seems the Virtual Memory on Windows.
Stock 4.4.2 don't support it. If you have an unlocked bootloader, you can give a try on custom Rom.I'm on slimKAT 5.10 right now and it support this. butter smooth.
