What app is it failing on? What size was it? Were you on a previous version of CM11? Just trying to get some background before diagnosing. I do see that you are down to 500 MB, so if its a big download you very well may be running out of space. The phone has about 5 gigs of free space when on CM11 M10.

for starters, did you make sure that you are seeing the right internal memory for that? remember, there's that sdcard1 and legacy folder that does take up room. advise you look through those, grab up what you need, put it under one folder and delete the other. also, if its saying that on installing apps, go data/app-lib, delete files corresponding to app, and reinstall app.

data partition access requires the use of a file manager that gives you root access (like root browser)
The internal storage that I was referring to is something that is usually seen when ppl use philz touch recovery (media1 vs media0 in philz). this does create a situation where you have your storage from a previous version of android and a storage from a newer version of android. for example, if using CM (I'm on CM10.2, but should be able to be seen on any version), you have the CM version of file manager included. open that and go to storage. in there you'll see emulated, sdcard1, and usbdisk. emulated refers to that older internal storage while sdcard1 refers to the newer

in the first photo, you can see the content of storage directory in my phone:
1-Emulated = it contains the directories "0" and "Legacy";
2-Sdcard0 = it's for the "Internal sdcard";
3-Sdcard1 = it stands for the "External sdcard";
4-Usb Disk = maybe is the partition mounted when i plug an usb drive in ?
I've a clockwork recovery installed.
So just to undestand, when i format the system, it creates copied directories in the internal storage?
However, this is a a new screenshot from the app section, as you can see, i can't install chrome in its stable release, but i can download and install the beta version....WTF?

My bad, I hit a 1 instead of a 0 on the sdcard part. but yes, from what you described in your most recent post and the pic attatched, that is what I am referring to. That Emulated folder is what you need to go through, and move any files you want to keep over to sdcard0 (easier to work with), then delete everything inside Emulated. That should free up space.
Which CWM do you have?
I'm looking into the Chrome app right now to see what's going on with it. even though I'm on CM10.2, I've got both installed correctly. What is it saying when you try to download it?

I recently had that error with adobe reader. I fixed mine by doing what I said earlier in the data partition, as well as going through the main folders within the data partition (data/app, data/app-lib, data/dalvik-cache, data/data) and deleting anything corresponding to the app.

Hi,
I successfully prepared my SD-card and rebooted the device. I was told this would take a bit longer for all the apps being moved, but it didn't.
I haven't applied any scripts from OR, because CM7 should perform the ext2 procedure automatically when booting with a prepared SD-card inserted.
But now I lost (or can't find?) my Google apps, keyboards and probably some other stuff. Looks like all the apps stored in internal memory are gone, but where, as I don't know how to get to them if they're on ext2. I don't notice any differences regarding moved apps and an operating ext2, except from that they're missing now... There's also no SD folder in System, which I think should have been created.
I can see all the apps in the installed list, but they have native Android icons, just like some shortcuts on my homescreen. Also widgets from apps installed in (former?) internal memory don't load. It looks like Android just needs to be told where they are now (just like myself ;-)
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Gerard

You should see a folder on your sd card called sd-ext and there should be 3 folders in there. Open up sd-ext/dalvik-cache and your apps should be there.

Nope, there is no "sd-ext" folder on my SD card. There is also no "sd" folder in "system".
In OR I just ran "Scandisk ext2" from the Utility menu and wiped both Dalvik and normal caches. At least that brought back my apps, but I have no idea where they are located now: in internal memory or on ext2...

So what I'm curious about is where I am now: back to how it was, or running ext2?

What is your internal memory? If you have Linux, check your ext partition. It should have app, app-private and dalvik-cache folders with your apps in the app folder.
You should also have those folders inside /sd-ext folder or /system/sd-ext folder, not in the sdcard.

Yup. That's it. I forgot that in the latest CM7, kabaldan moved the dalvik-cache back to the data partition. So yes, your apps2ext is working.
But, you should have a sd-ext in your root folder for sure.

So I don't need those /system/sd-ext folders? If not and it's all okay, great!
I have a few other questions though. Will everything I install from the Market from now on be installed at ext2, even if it's apps2sd enabled? Since apps already installed on my SD-card through apps2sd have not been moved to ext2, should I leave it this way or are there any benefits moving them too? If so, how? Is it better to install apps2sd enabled apps on SD or to ext2? Is there a way to control or handle this?
I realise this is a lot to ask, but I haven't been able to find the answers yet. Links are welcome too!
Thanks again,
Gerard

Any app you install now goes into the ext folder automatically. When you delete it, it removes itself from the ext partition.
Though the app is stored on the ext partition, some internal space will be used. But you can install a lot more apps.
Regarding apps already moved using apps2sd, just move them back to the internal storage and reboot your phone. They will move to the ext folder on reboot.

This really works great. I've moved all my apps to ext2 and everything runs smoothly.
Indeed my internal memory is dropping however, because of the apps data, which is stored in the "/data/data" folder, so I've read.
I've also read this data could be moved to SD also, but I'm not considering that yet. But what to do when internal memory is running out? What's the limit for stable, smooth operarion? I have about 50 MB free now.
Thanks again,

i am having very similar problems. using apps2ext for the first time. (latest miui by lalit)
from my understanding apps get stored on the ext partition on the sdcard.
i moved some apps - that supported it - and everything was fine (i thought)
then i wiped my fat32 (i moved all of the files to my pc) -- BUT now my phone isnt able to find the apps (on the ext partition?!) anymore...
what am i missing here?
EDIT---
i just discovered the ".android_secure" folder and moved it back to my sdcard. my apps reappeared.
so there are 3 locations i can store my apps?
1) internal
2) SD: ext
3) SD: fat
how do i tell my phone to store everything on ext? i am able to move apps from within phone-application-settings to sd-card (gets stored on fat) or move them with titanium backup (also just internal and sdcard)
when i check titanium backup it lists 3 storage locations 1) internal 2) sdcard 3) sdcard (a2sd)
miui sd-card setting (A2SD+) on the other hand says "this device does not support A2SD+)
sorry for all this confusing stuff up there. i am trying to understand this

app2ext (second ext2/3/4 partition on the SD card) is different to the native Froyo app2sd (a virtual filesystem base o files stored in .android_secure folder).
The app2ext requres a script to be executed as the Android satrts (e.g. placed into init.d) and its makes all the stuff 'invisible' for the system, it simply moves all the apps from internal storage into the ext partition and links the partition to the filesystem. Once you have it you do not need to manually move every single apps to sd.
I've created an ext2 partition and CM7 move my apps to it. But when I continue moving my apps from sd to internal (or "not SD"), my internal storage go down.
I restarted the phone but it's 18MB free yet.
Must I move some apps to SD again?
Another question: what about davilk cache? When I did this on stock rom, the script I've used move davilk-cache to ext2 too.
Thanks
Dalvik cache is not moved to ext partition in cm7.

Maybe I've writen bad my previous post.
When I move apps from SD to internal (because I want them on ext2 partition) my internal storage increase (the free space go down). So, this app2ext doesn't give me any advantage over app2sd from android.
There is a solution or workaround for this?

Try going to Android folder at your sd (not external).
There you will see data and obb folders, just look for the game storage data and delete it.
I had a very similar problem and one day while messing around with "ES File Explorer" I found a button that said "SD Card Analyst" Naturally I was curious about what it analyzes, so I clicked it. (It analyzes the internal SD) The very first folder that popped up was the exact size of the missing space and had the same name as an app I had uninstalled. Sneaky lil app, I even cleared all data before I uninstalled, and that was one ROM previous. Sorry to make a short story long, but I hope this helps.

It's an app called Foldermount, you can use it to "redirect" internal folders to your external SD card so you can have more space: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=es_419 It requires root

Thanks a lot.my phone's rebooting problem has been fixed but the moving apps to sd card didn't fix Yet.can you please tell me how to do that?
As far as I understand, the Xperia ZR does not support this. Period. Something to do with the fact that it's internal storage is actually an external that's built into the phone and emulated to act as the internal. It might even be a limitation of KitKat, but I don't think that's likely. Your best bet is Link2SD (preferrably pro) for regular apps and games, and FolderMount for apps with obb files like Injustice, Gameloft games, etc. Link2SD can be somewhat confusing though, though it's a little easier if you have some basic experience with Linux or partitioning hard disks. I understand that there are some apps that do what Link2SD does, but automates everything and keeps it simple (I think simple2ext might be an example of this, not sure though). Native app2sd and AppsMgrIII and the like are out of the question, though.

It does support it, at least for me. Maybe because I have installed the "KitKat SD Card Full Access" module on Xposed? that and foldermount makes a great combo.
Really? Damn. Partitioned my SD card for nothing. I'm not really sure what Xposed is; I guess I'm going to go find a tutorial for it now. Thanks for the heads up.
P.S. Why would you need foldermount if you have native apps2sd? Doesn't the native move obb files?

Xposed Framework Is really useful and can be a really great complement in some roms (like the Stock one); It let you change the behavior of the system and apps without touching any APKs; so for example, I use it to force Inmersive Mode on apps that doesn't have this feature (I use it for games mostly, so I play at full screen ) and also I have the module named Kitkat SD Card full acces, that itself doesn't let me move apps to the SD, but if I understand correctly, this one let non-system apps gain acces to the SD Card (sdcard1).
I still can't move apps to the SD with that (from settings, also tried App2SD and link2sd and said that there was a problem because storage is being emulated) That's why I need to use FoulderMount and it's simple. select the source folder to mount (from Emulated/0 or sdcard0) and then thee destination folder (sdcard1/[whateverthenameofthefolderis]/) and that's it. there are tutorials (better explained) on how to use it too.

As far as I understand, the Xperia ZR does not support this. Period. Something to do with the fact that it's internal storage is actually an external that's built into the phone and emulated to act as the internal. It might even be a limitation of KitKat, but I don't think that's likely. Your best bet is Link2SD (preferrably pro) for regular apps and games, and FolderMount for apps with obb files like Injustice, Gameloft games, etc. Link2SD can be somewhat confusing though, though it's a little easier if you have some basic experience with Linux or partitioning hard disks. I understand that there are some apps that do what Link2SD does, but automates everything and keeps it simple (I think simple2ext might be an example of this, not sure though). Native app2sd and AppsMgrIII and the like are out of the question, though.

Link2sd need second partition of the sd card and I don't know how to do it.I tried so many times but it didn't work.

If you're happy using Foldermount, then I suggest you don't bother with Link2SD. Partitioning an SD card is annoying and often messy. Also, it's not very flexible. You can't use any free space in the second partition for storage, which is just wasteful. Don't get me wrong, it's a brilliant app, and a very clever workaround for the problem, but it's not a perfect solution.

Oh, I see. So there's no way to get the native, Android inbuilt app2sd? Bummer.
The Xposed framework looks very interesting, to say the least. After taking a look, I've decided to go back to stock and just use this for my tweaks and such. How long I'll keep it like that, I don't know, but I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks for explaining it to me.

thank you and for the sd card, we must format to fat32, to be able to get it detected?

it changes its position while flipping from vertical to horizontal. sometime it's at the centre where it should be, but then, it goes back a little left, then again to the far left.
The rom is pretty smooth, faced glitches while trying to swipe languages at the welcome cynogenmod screen, a soft reboot too, while on particular language(was just rolling over). (clean flash on the latest twrp recovery, with opengapps and keyboard fix) after went over the process, tried taking screenshot, but got error "Couldn't capture screenshot(Can't take screenshot due to limited storage space or it isn't allowed by the app or your organization"(wth?) soon enough everything started crashing and wouldn't stop, I reboot to recovery again, clear cache then back again. voila, no crashing and I took screenshot. no keyboard problem.
wifi connects, camera and camcorder works. file manager shows sd card data but pc won't mount sd card(if it's not fat32 format), ram usage was at 63 percent(with gapps after reboot) and 60 percent(without gapps)
clean flashed again. without gapps, just rom and keyboard fix.
no fc or crashes at all.
keyboard lock AOSP.
An alternative keyboard please?
Thanks for the great work, great!

The last 2 links you list say "Tab 2 7.0." Do you know if these files also work for the P5113? (I'm assuming yes, since you have a thumbs up next to P5113).
Also, is it ok if I use Open GApps 6.0 nano instead of your 2nd link?
Or would this conflict with the GApps keyboard listed in your 3rd link?

One last question: I see you stated earlier the "file manager shows sd card data but pc won't mount sd card(if it's not fat32 format)."
This is probably a n00b question, but can you explain what "won't mount SD card" mean?
I did some quick Googling, and it looks like it means the card isn't recognized. Does this mean that I can't access backed-up data from Titanium Backup? I know it's not recommended, but I usually like to back-up and restore save data for games and applications (only user apps, never system apps!) after each Rom change. Does this mean that my backup will be lost / inaccessible?
Or does this mean I won't be able to transfer newer builds from my pc to the tablet using the USB cord?

it won't show your sd card when you connect through the USB on the PC, so you won't be able to transfer files to the sd card, neither it shows on your tab.(it does show, but has different mount point, instead of sdcard1 your external card data will be found at /mnt/media_rw/(somerandomname) using any filemanager.
now you got the point? you can try titanium backup to look your files at that location.

Yes, these files worked successfully on my SG Tab2-10.1 (P5113). The only issue I'm experiencing is with my 16G external SD card. Storage & USB in settings reads it on tablet, but 'File Manager' and 'ES File Explorer' apps do not. Desktop connection via USB also does not show external storage.

Thanks for the explanation! I just installed CM 13, and it seems to be running smoothly so far.
A few minor questions:
What root manager apps works with CM 13? I just tried SuperSU from the Playstore, apparently it only supports up to Lollipop since it kept giving me error messages when trying to install the binaries.
Also, is there a setting to change the time in the upper-right corner to show AM/PM?
Going back to cm12.1 . Dont like the externalsd card problems. Dont know why they changed it, but it su..... . But must say that ROM works fine. Hope they change external sd card usage, to come back on it.

You don't need supersu, it's pre rooted, go into developers settings and enable root from there for app and adb. Go into setting time and date, change time format to 12 hour

I have a problem with this.
When I use ES File Manager in CM13 and go to /mnt/media_rw/ I see an empty folder even though I have a micro-sd card inserted which contains data. When I go to settings-->Storage & USB, Marshmallow shows me my external microsd-card as "sdcard1" under "mobile storage" with 42 of 59 GB used.
I did NOT use the internal-storage open introduced in Marshmallow. I want to keep my microsd-card as an external device.
When I turn the screen of and on again, I'm in the lock-screen and I see a notification which reads "SD-Card by Samsung - for transferring fotos and media" and when I double-tap on the notification, a file-manager opens and shows me all the files and folders saved to my external microsd-card and then I can access all files and folders contained on the microsd-card, I can listen to music, open PDFs and so on.
How can I acess the microsd- card with a file manager ? How can I copy files from my tablet's internal storage to the microsd-card and vice versa ?
Of course, when I connect my tablet with my windows-pc using the usb-cable, the microsd-card also does not show up on the PC.
And as I said before, the /mnt/media_rw/ folder is empty so I really don't know how to copy files to and from my microsd-card.
Help please.

Regarding the SD issues. Have anyone tried making it adoptable?
http://m.androidcentral.com/inside-marshmallow-adoptable-storage
This can also be done from terminal emulator by typing:
su

And then rebooting.

No ROM is as smooth as STOCK ROM. So here is the de-bloated and pre-rooted stock ROM for sprout 8. This ROM is only 246 MB and works like a charm. It also has BusyBox integrated, so there is no need to install it with any app. ( Thanks to Stericson )
This ROM boots up quickly even on first boot. Thanks to the maker of ART_ON_FIX.
Due to a few apps, normal boot up time is also reduced.
Screenshots are given below.
Moreover, if you want to run Viper4Android with stock kernel, then head over to this thread.
Everything is working perfectly, if you find any bug then let me know.
I hope you will enjoy it.
Thanks @abkdmn and @arpitbatra123 for testing Sprout 4 version.

Download ROM for Sprout 4
PS:
There is no Camera, File Explorer, and Stock Messaging app. I have removed the Camera app and replaced stock messaging app with Textra SMS to keep the size smaller. But if you want these apps, then flash the zip of basic apps after flashing the ROM. You can find the link below.

PPS:
Those who are getting low system partition space, do this after flashing the ROM.
1: Backup SYSTEM partition.
2: Go to wipe option > Advanced wipe > and there select SYSTEM and wipe it.
(TWRP)
3: Restore SYSTEM.
4: Now you have 1 GB of the SYSTEM partition.

I have installed this on my spice android one phone and my initial impression are followed
Pros: It has improved my phone's battery life considerably, maybe because I had been using some apps earlier that was causing battery drain or maybe it is updated 6.01 MM with all the updates and bugs fixes.
Cons: I am having problem with some of the apps that I can't transfer to SD card which I could do earlier and though I can transfer google chrome to the sd card but it is not working and crashing there but working fine in internal storage.
overall I am kinda satisfied with having a lot more extra internal space and lot less cluttered.

Thanks for the feedback. But I would recommend everyone that they should not move apps to external storage media. Because it makes device slower, due to the low speed of SDcards.
