System Rom Size - Rooted 6.0 - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Quick question - I am on MM 6.0 and have just rooted - when I load Titanium Backup it shows the following -
System ROM: 2.06 GB ( 17.1 MB free)
Internal+Media 24.7 GB (24.1 GB free)
Doesn't the System ROM seem low on "free" memory? I don't remember what it was on 5.1. Anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks!

M is much bigger than L and (Stock) pretty much fills the /system partition.

It really doesn't matter if it's 1mb free or 1000. Technically nothing else is written there during normal use, so there is no need for a lot of free space.

haha no. Although that said, their RRO code expects themes to be in /system. Still not sure how they're expecting these to be managed without Layers Manager.

i always delete many apps, and/or move systen apps out to user land. that usually frees up a couple hundred mbs.

Yeah, its what I'm recommending to people. Any google apps you can get from play, delete. theres plenty of MB to go.

It's the same thing the N5 did after LP came out, curious how it handles MM with half the system space

I also recommend moving Google apps that are available over play to the user apps. No problems doing that through titanium backup.

[Q] Short of space

Hello,
I was wondering yesterday why my hero (2.1) noticed short available space
I checked the app manager and 3 of them seem very very big
- contact: approx 15MB
- twitter: approx 19MB (unistall + re-install = 3.5MB)
- google maps: approx: 9MB
Is this normal?
Can you advise me how to reduce the size af these apps? (its not a pb of cache)
Thanks !
Just get app2sd on the market and move all movable apps to the sd card.

You may try to delete the files used by the app from application manager in settings..
that may help you..

sure, it works... however I'm not sure if you need to root your phone first...
this is a little late, but if the Move To SD Card button is pressable, does that mean they are movable? I did it once and lost all icons for my apps? >.<;

500KB Free?

Hey Guys
Had this Phone little under a week now, updated to ICS on the day it arrived and rooted it end of last week anyway tried installing a ad-blocker and it said system memory was low, did a check using QtADB and that reports that I have 484.38 KiB left, this can't be right can it? It's saying I've used 818.47 MiB Just on system partition? Is this right or?
Thanks
Jamie

when you have rooted...why not try a custom rom ???
and try App2SD and send all your user apps with Data to your SD card...
I rooted thurs/friday + I'm quite happy with stock at the moment, until Jelly Bean is hopefully developed + It's not the user/data apps or that Its just the System Partition apps the built in ones..

it could be, Samsung stock roms are huge, you may want to check check Root App Delete (or any other solution) to free some space on the system part by removing few unnecessary apps/widgets/animated wallpapers of your choosing

Using swap partition kills the memory card eventually. There are a lot more methods available.
@ jhay0017 : Check out my guide on performance & battery life. It should help you. You can find it here.

yeah its true it may reduce the health of ur sd card bt its effective, i mean u can feel the difference. you can give it a try n if u are not satisfied u can uninstall the app.
Find a ROM or kernel that supports zRAM. Set it to like 18% (should be default).
Seems like best option. It compresses a portion of your RAM to fit like 3x to use like swap. Meaning stuff needs to be transferred back to your normal RAM when its needed, which is now smaller. That's the tradeoff, and why it shouldn't be more than 25%.
Anyway might not be available to you but great if it is.

you could limit the number of useless background apps.
It's availabe in some roms.
I don't know about the zRAM option, because it takes allways time to compress and decompress the memory I guess.

Why don't you give people a chance. You just opened it YESTURDAY.

May be if it was more informative. Apps don't change size depending on ROM. So have you used any file explorer to see if you have logs filling in or lost+found folder. SD maid like apps.

Lollipop 5.1.1 upgrade cant see full RAM ? SM-G800H /DS

Hello.
I have S5 mini G800H /DS code ZTO unlocked no carrier from Brazil.
I flashed with Odin the Russian Firmware Android 5.1.1 for G800H.
It runs flawlessly and fast (i only use one sim) and kept all my data and apps that also were updated.
But system info and test programs as a1SDbench or Antutu shows only 1024 mb RAM.
The device has 1.5 gb RAM.
Is that a bug in the firmware? i´v read in other sites other users had same problem.
Any info on the subject?
Thanks in advance.
I´m worried bit not that much since device works lil faster than with kitkat anyway.
Thanks to all

Is your system showing only 1gb of ram too?

Yup
Same here, same phone model but I use the Indian Firmware instead. The performance is fine, I use two chips. But the total amount of ram memory in the system is now 1GB, and I'm 100% sure that's my device showed 1,5GB before the upgrade. That's very odd

Your device is exactly the same, I mean the S5 mini DUOS? There is a S5 mini version single chip, I'm not sure if this ROM can be used in it.
If so, maybe you have to hard reset your device to properly work, I didn't need this time but I have to in pasts updates. My free ram is about 250mb constantly, regardless the open apps. The device is running in very good performance like never before and the battery duration increased. The only strange thing is the total amount of RAM in the system, showing 1 GB instead of 1,5 GB like before.
Any news about that? Is a just a minor bug but not affecting the performance?
