I recently have experienced the same problem and I spent nearly 3 days to get my phone back to work.
The issue is probably caused by broken app file on SD card.
I'm sure there's one way to replay the issue: get more than 100 apps on SD card, then use Titanium Backup to move all apps from internal storage to SD card, before it finishes (near the end) force close Titanium Backup. On next boot, Android won't be able to load all apps on SD card anymore.
My solution was:
Connect the sd card onto a computer using a card reader. Go to .android_secure folder, then sort by modifying date. Delete few latest apps then put the SD back to your phone but you have to re-install the apps which you deleted.
Good luck!
If you use apps to ext, you can just restore your nandroid...

Thanks! I did what you said only I deleted all the apps in the android secure folder to be sure. And so far is working well for a couple of days. Thank you again.

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.
If you are experiencing the same thing you can do some light reading:

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).

-Ran fix permissions in recovery: no errors everything went as it should
-Ran fix persmissions in viper rom: terminal settings: no errors everything ran as it should
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.
guess ill be holding on to my evo lte for another yr or so.

Is OTG standard in Android? Does the One need to be rooted?
Hi Guys,
Am pretty annoyed right now. At a wedding last night I recorded a number of videos on my XZ. First recording of the night numbered *003.MP4 and last one was *021.MP4.
Looked at my gallery earlier to discover that files 03 - 010.mp4 are missing, and I have older videos 001 and 002.MP4 followed by 011 to 021.MP4. Couldn't figure out why the other 8 videos are missing as they were recorded in exactly the same was at the later videos (stored on internal storage), so decided to try data recovery.
Minefield. I installed MyJad Data Recovery For Android which it turns out is shareware. Installed for free and it thankfully shows the missing files, along with their respective filesizes. Promising start, but unable to restore through the app without purchase. Since this didn't happen through user error and I already have [email protected] installed I'm reluctant to spend money on this...
In order to use [email protected] or any other free software I've found (Stellar Phoenix Recovery looks good) I need to have a drive letter assigned to perform the recovery. Unable to do so as I have trawled the internet for hours and it seems there is no way to assign a drive letter to the internal storage of the phone (Portable device only, does not show in disk management)
I decided to go down the route of imaging the internal storage in order to mount it as a drive using daemon tools and try to recover it from there but am also having no luck being able to make a full image.
My Z is rooted and running original firmware with locked bootloader. Does anyone know of any free software I can use to either mount the internal with a drive letter, image it, or of data recovery software (Windows 7 or android based) that can scan a portable media device?
I know I can switch from MTP to MSC but Sony have tied access to the external SD only so the internal storage cannot be accessed in this way. Also the filesystem is NTFS so Undelete for Root doesn't work as it supports FAT only

Even if you do mount internal storage in MSC, it's still going to be an ext3 partition.
I would recommend you try hexamob recovery to recover the lost files.
This free version is capable of recovering files.

There is no recovery software that can work over MTP without direct access to the filesystem.
However, here is a method to extract the internal memory to a file and use data recovery software on that:

That's probably because it was your external memory card mounted in MSC mode and not the internal one.

Had Usb debugging on.
Played with the settings in Xperia/Usb connection.
Searched for lost file by name (Downloads)with recuva on internal sd and restored to c drive. Went through and deleted any corrupted files and copied back to phone.
Can't remember if I was rooted or exactly what setting I chose though.

[Hi all, thank you for your suggestions. Tried Hexamob but not possible. Recuva seems to be the way forward for most but I had no luck with it. I'd already installed it and uninstalled it prior to posting about the problem, but reinstalled to give it another chance. I used the wizard (you have to specify a drive with an assigned letter in standard/advanced) and in the wizard I chose to search portable media but I get the following error;
"No drives were scanned, because none matches with the filter"
Couldn't 'search a specific location' as due to no drive letter it didn't show...
Found the following which has been invaluable so far.... I have created an image and assigned it a drive letter - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705
Initial recovery using Recuva has been patchy - the file sizes are small and there's not much content for each video.... but my quest continues. At the very least I now have a full internal memory dump, that's a huge leap in progress I can stop falling asleep on my laptop now and relax a bit!

Good to hear. Thanks for the link. Hope you were able to recover most of your data.
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!

Hello,in primis make a backup of our data then, if you want I repeat if you want (there's no danger in do it) try an hard reset (settings=>info=>restores your phone).
if you tell me what your phone it is, there is a way to do the hard reset with button combination when the phone is off. I say to you to do an hard reset because tech prew is instable and when the os try to migrate the data between old and new version some errors can be incurring. after the hard reset you can restore your data with backup ( you must configure your phone as brand new)
that's all.
ciao!!
hit thanks if i have helped you.
sorry for my english!
