I have an Android 4.0.4 tablet. Trying to decipher the Storage listing in Settings. There are two listings, each labeled as Internal Storage. This was advertised as having 512 Mb memory, but these numbers in Storage just don't add up.

I've been looking through the filesystem of android, and for the life of me cannot find the files that make up the settings menu in android. It's been a long while since I've attempted modifying anything myself.

You just need to pick the right ones.Usually you use Batch mode to backup all the *user* apps, and then you backup most green *system* items one by one.
For restoring you don't need to do it one by one: just open MENU->Batch, scroll a bit and use "Restore missing apps + all system data". That should pretty much do it in 1 click - or a few more clicks if you don't have the Donate version.
When i go into 'Settings' then into 'SD card & phone storage' i do not have the 'usb storage' tab. i did have it the first time i added files to my G1 but it is no longer there. How do i add music now or is there something i must do in order to get that tab back?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've bought this chinese clone of the SIII, it's a MT6575. It's great except for the internal storage, which supposedly is 500MB but there seems to be an invisible SD storage which is 2GB. It's really confusing... When I go to Settings -> Storage there are 3 memories: "Internal Storage" (claims to be 4GB but it's fake, it's actually 500MB), "Phone Storage" (claims to be 16.5GB but it's probably 2GB), and finally my SD, "SD Card" (32GB).
The thing is, I'm having problems downloading big apps because apps go to "Internal Storage" which is 500MB only, and which files are stored in the "Phone Storage" (maybe internal & phone are actually the same?). However when I go to Settings -> Apps, on the "Downloaded" tab, the apps are in "Internal Storage" (500MB), and on the "On SD Card" tab, it shows that apps are in "Phone Storage" (the ones I moved to SD). This means my 32GB SD isn't being used by the system when I send apps to SD probably.
Also, my 32GB SD card is found in /mnt/sdcard2, and the /mnt/sdcard... I don't know which storage is that.
So basically all this is happening because I tried to Link2SD with my 32GB SD doing all the 2 partitions stuff and so, but Link2SD never detects the "secondary SD" which is the 32GB SD, as this fake SD card, "Phone Storage", is probably what the programs thinks to be the SD card.
On my galaxy tab 2 7, with Android 4.3, I have two choices of memory storage, emulated and extSdard. Im wondering if the emulated is actually on a like Cloud system or are the files still on my tablet? Also, if emulated storage is for multiple users, does this mean another device is connected besides my tablet?

I would like to change my region/language setting independently from the general LANGUAGE-SETTING in settings !!!
Ok that means i dont care about the language my apps will be displayed in as long as it is english "which should be in every rom.."
But i do care about the region they are set in... means when i start MIUI News/Weather (geniewidget.apk) I want to see News from Germany and temperature in Celsius..
When I play "who-becomes-rich" I want Euro for currency! and so on ...
Is there any way to set the region like that ? (build.prop or anything else..?)
Im using MIUI v4 with my G-Nex.

View 3 Replies View RelatedFor some reason my Incredible won't mount both the internal phone storage and the SD card storage at the same time. What I mean is...when I plug my phone into my PC I only get a single popup asking to mount the phone's SD card storage, but not the internal phone storage.If I remove the SD card (or unmount the SD card using menus on the phone) and then toggle the connection type from Disk Drive, to Charge only, and then back to Disk Drive (to burp the connection), the internal phone storage will mount, but the SD card won't mount because it has been removed.When I connect my wife's incredible, my computer sees both the SD card storage and the internal storage (as expected) and gives me prompts for both. I took the SD card from the problematic phone and put it in the "good" phone and there are no issues at all (IE.. both the internal storage and SD storage mount). This of course means there is no issue with the SD card.

im shocked with how the manufacturer of my device(cherry mobile) designated their storage. the phone storage is 2gb and internal is 500 mb.
it is not a problem if i could write apps on phone storage by default but even though the 'write to phone storage' is checked, when i downloaded an app, the internal storage still losses free space.
so is it possible to extend internal storage?
I used this to check the amount of space on my A2SD partition of my SD Card. However I've noticed that as well as INTERNAL storage, there's something called SYSTEM storage. Which is considerably bigger than whats left of my internal space.Is the INTERNAL used for Multimedia files as this thread suggests?Internal Storage vs Phone Storage.If so.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo if I do a Factory Reset on the phone it still has some of the old photos/videos I took, which leads me to believe it doesn't fully clear the device of everything, just the settings that I changed are returned to their factory defaults (duh!).I was curious if I do the Clear Storage option, which means turning off the device and holding one of the volume toggles while holding the power button - would that mean that the entire Android OS would be removed, or does it mean it does a format of the phones entire partition and re-installs Android (similar to a reformat/recovery partition on a computer)? In which case I would need to reactivate the phone doing the simple *228.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI know making a real unremovable app is impossible, but I hope I'll be able to find a way to make an app harder to remove.I want to make some kind of parental protection app. it should be installed easily without much technical knowledge ( preferred that it will work on unrooted devices). the app should be hard to remove or disable by the phone user.who ever installed the app should be able to remove (probably with a password in the app settings).
I don't care if technical users will be able to easily remove the app.I also don't care if the users will know that the app is installed on their device.I guess the simplest solution will be to some how hide the app from the app drawer.I saw some where that Cerberus has that option but I guess it requires a root.
another solution might be if there is an option in the android os itself setting an admin password that will not allow the user to install or remove any apps without the password.

What is required in the Android OS to support USB Gamepads?
I have purchased an Android TV Box from Chinavasion [URL] ..... which has 4 USB ports. While it's mostly going to be used to watch TV, I thought it might be nice to play a few games on it.
I can plug keyboards and mice into it and they work just fine. But gamepads don't work at all. I understand that from honeycomb gamepads are supposed to be supported natively so I guess there must be something missing in the firmware?
I have installed USB Device Info app. The gamepads are not listed in the "Android" tab, but do show up in the Linux tab (though to be fair, the same is true of the keyboard and mouse).
I'm using bluestack, but it terribly slow. My laptop have 4Gb ram, i tried to modify bluestacks ram on registry to 850MB but it's still slow.
I google and found this thread, using Eclipse to make Bluestacks faster: http:[url]....
I did what it said but my Eclipse look different with the eclipse in tutorial.
I'm using Eclipse IDE java developers, it doesn't have the Device Manager as the thread said, in stead this: http:[url]....
And my bluestacks is still very slow. I don't know what i did wrong, or is this method still work?
I've been out of the game for a while when it comes to making videos and editing them. I stopped fooling around with the hobby about eight years ago because it was such a hassle at the time, Sony handycam, the micro tapes, play the movie to put it on the computer, then edit it and put it in what was the thing then "mpeg4".
Will I bought myself a droid x two years ago and was gonna take up the hobby then but technology has come so far since eight years ago and the thought just scares me. Now I have a razr maxx, and i wanna start making videos, what kind of software would you suggest, what formats of videos are there now?
I feel that a cell phone would make the quality videos I'm interested in, it much better than my old Sony handycam
Sorry if this is a complete NOOB question, but what is the difference between the internal storage which is 6.6GB and the phone storage, which is about 750MB? How do I access the 6.6GM of storage? What am I missing here?
