Hello
After flashed some roms and other root practices I lost at least 12 gb from my internal storage. I realy have not idea how can i recover it. Of course i wiped all date and make everything what newbie rootmeister should do. So...
have you any isues?
P.S.
In system it is showing me 2gb (full memory size)
and in Hisuite on desktop is 16gb but 13/14 is filled.
Sorry for my english. I know it isnt perfect.
Factory reset with stock recovery should fix it
Which ROM would you recommend for Honor 4X - Che2-L11 ( cherryplus, Kirin 620)? I need to fix my girlfriend's phone
She needs stable ROM with working radio (so Nougat from here won't work), headphones, good battery life and enough internal storage (or possibility to move apps to SD or use adoptable storage with microSD) for apps.
Android 4.4.2 was relatively fine, but it is old. Then we upgraded to stock 6.0 (B570), however she had problems with lack of internal storage - it was not possible to move apps to SD card (4.4.2 was better in that) and adoptable storage didn't work properly (apps are crashing, reporting not enough space, new apps can't be installed etc). Then we tried RROS on Nougat from ksrt12, where adoptable storage seems to work fine, but radio and headphones don't work and there is quite high battery drain (15% per night with data disabled).

If you are OK with Android 6, you can try Modaco. This was the rom I used before I switched to RROS recently.
You should get a Class 10 SD card (32 Gb if possible). Install Apps2SD from play store and partition the card. First partition FAT32, second partition Ext4, then you move apps to SD card's second partition. (If you wish, you can create three partitions, and use one of them as 'adoptable storage'. I did that.) Modaco rom has a lot of free space on the system partition, so you can move many apps there, which also saves space. But apps that have been moved to system partition will be moved back to internal storage when they are updated.
I had so much free space that I never came close to filling up the storage. But I think regular XDA users would get kinda bored using this rom, as it is basically EMUI with a little bit stock feel.
The only things not working were the default clock and the compass. Clock you can just install another clock app from play store. Compass. .. I never found how to fix. Detecting headphones works and all the other hardware things, as this is basically a modified EMUI 4. I should also add that I don't know if you can flash this from RROS, as that would be "downgrading" from Android 7 to Android 6.

Thank you for the advice. I see Modaco has 2 ROMs - EMUI style and Stock style beta. Which one did you use?
With use of Apps2SD, does it move all apps to Ext4 partition on the card, or just selected ones? Or is it basically just remapping internal storage to Ext4 partition on the card?
If I have just 16 GB card for this phone, how do you suggest to repartition it?
If there is so much free space on the system partition, isn't it possible to decrease size of system partition somehow and enlarge internal storage instead?

It must have been the Stock style beta. I didn't know there was another version.

Apps2SD moves the files of apps to the SD card and creates symbolic links, so the system "thinks" the apps are still on the internal storage. In Apps2SD this process is called to link apps. Just so you know the terminology. It is very configurable, so you can choose which apps to move/link to the SD card.
What you describe, to repartition /system, sounds like a good idea, but I don't know enough about Android to say if it is possible. You would probably need some recovery program that can repartition the internal storage. Can TWRP do that? I don't know. This is above my league, sorry.
UPDATE: I found this guide for how to repartition the internal storage. But I haven't tried it.
I installed that MoDaCo EMUI style ROM, partitioned my SD card and made Apps2SD working. So far it looks fine.
However, does it still make sense to use MoDaCo EMUI ROM, which is based on B506 firmware, when there is B580 stock available? Yes MoDaCo has more internal memory free (3.28 GB vs 2.50 GB), but it has security patches only from March 2016, while B580 has July 2017 and who knows how good tweaks Huawei added since B506...

I have two Che2-L11 phones, and one of them was running B580 until a few weeks ago. The few small improvements Huawei added are not even worth the upgrade. However, if security concerns you, I would give RROS another try. About your headphones problem, I don't see why it should not work. It works on my phone. (Note three-conductor is detected and switched on, but not four-conductor.)

I also don't know why headphones without microphone didn't work with RROS for us, but it can be also related to parts of firmware that are not flashed together with RROS and they remain from previous full firmware (like modem firmware, hifi.img, dsp.img etc). Also before we flashed RROS, we had Marshmallow B570 showing Balong firmware (in the past, we upgraded from 4.4.2 to B570, but it seems she had Malaysian region set in the phone for some reason - I fixed it now) in the phone.
Unfortunatelly my girlfriend (she has this phone) wants to have headphones and radio fully working (RROS doesn't have radio as far as I know), so it seems as no go for RROS...

Yes , but unfortunately I got connection refused ... did you try to open the link cause I got error "connection refused" ? just to check the link.
Hi . How to fix this problem on my P8 Lite 2017 ? I can't download anything in internal storage
What did you do that made this happen? Rooted? Did you installed an app that does encryption, etc...
Factory Reset or changing Data or Internal Storage to "f2fs" filesystem in TWRP, would be my approach if I ever encounter that problem.
Backup important files.

Huawei p8 Lite Storage Issue
My Huawei p8 Lite 2017 has a total storage of 16.00 GB and when I reset the phone I checked the storage and it said that there was only 3.96GB left!
and android 7.0 dose not take up that much space!!
when insert SD card it says it is a low powered one but on SD card I can see that it is!
I purchased a 64GB SDcard for my Huawei P8 thinking I could use it as internal storage so Apps could be stored on it as the current 16GB of memory is not enough.
Only to find that using the stock ROM the only thing you can move to the SDCard are files (Pics etc.) not Apps.
Is this a hardware or software restriction?
If I install a custom ROM will I be able to use my SDCard as internal storage and store Apps on it?
Any recommendations as to the best roms to use?

Difficult in Oreo, a simple ADB hack in Nougat - and apparently inherited if updated to Oreo
Hi there,
I tried the search function but didn't really find an answer to my question:
Ist there a reliable way to turn my SD-card into "adoptable storage" and/or move my apps to the SD-card? I found a thread but it says it would not work on the latest "firmware" whatever that exactly means. I'm on PRA-LX1 8.0.0.408(C432) (EMUI 8.0.0).
I'm so done with the restricted storage space on the internal storage, it makes the phone practically unusuble to me and I would be glad for any help. Phone is not rooted but I did unlock the bootloader.
Thx in advance!
