Jvene where are you!?!
I remember him mentioning that everything is working but has to pack them into user friendly format for distribution. I assume he has everything done but has been busy or something... are the multi part uploads viable? From earlier in this post when he was still in development?
Yes, it started after I did the fuse sd and links2sd. I get it on every reboot

By the way, is anyone else getting the frequent software update every time when you restart the phone?
No I didn't install anything like that. But it is cache related, just not sure why it's acting wonky
It may have to do with the Dalvik Cache erasing for some reason
maybe but I don't know what is causing the Dalvik Cache erasing... Hmm.... From what I know, I was skeptical that one of the programs that I installed may have causing the problem so I did a factory reset... Still no luck
... an option to move to SD Card. ...wtf is this "App", and why is it not placing my data on my sd card.
As time goes on these no contract pre paid phones are getting locked down like fort knox... why?
I don't know if this helps anyone or not, or if it even works for the Optimus F6. But I myself am to Leary to give it a try.
For this phone to go anywhere as far as storage goes, its going to have to involve a completely custom rom
I would like to root my phone and dive into this head first, but from what happened with my Coolpad after rooting it never being able to update it. I want to be patient and wait for the update if it ever does come. I'm kinda flabbergasted with this phone, because I wasn't expecting to face this issue with all the bells and whistles it came with. IMO there should be a standard of a 4gb internal memory requirement for any phone manufacturer. The medium isn't that expensive. I like the other guy was tempted to pop this sucker open and hardsolder a new larger flash memory to it.
I have faith in your Jvene, and I shall wait for your beta to see if its a lasting solution.
I am a noob when it comes to development - with that being said, is thia phone anything like the LG Motion? I know that they were able to merge internal and external storage. Not like it the Motion needed it, it had 5.59gb of internal storage.
Unrelated, but you seem quite helpful and a nice person. I was wondering if you would take a look at this thread I posted. It is about storage. I cant seem to get the info I need.

Thanks for the quick reply. It seems they have a v2 for the motion. It is listed here

******NOONE TRY ABOVE LINK ON F6 REFERENCE TO A QUESTION ONLY******
Is this what you are trying to accomplish with the F6?
Also, as long as i dont remove google or lg apps, should be good? Quite a bit of stuff like metro apps and google play movies music ect.
Alright, so I went ahead and did it, I rooted my phone and installed Link2SD using a Partitioned SD card, 8.5gbs external Fat32 / 6.5gbs internal Ext2. I let everything do what it needed to do, I should mention I did all this on a fresh wipe of the phone.
Used the pre-installed app manager to uninstall all apps that came on the phone, disabled and force stopped all other apps n services from metro and Google I didn't need. Installed the recovery that was listed under the rooting thread I used. Let the phone update all the new apps over Wi-Fi, used Link2SD to create links and move them to my SD card, also linked and moved everything else on the internal storage.
To the point I suppose after doing all this, and having all the updates, removing the bloat ware and unnecessary apps and new apps about 10 + (ADW Launcher EX + themes, Titanium, Root Explorer, etc. etc.) a handful or so of games 50-200mbs each. My phone stands at 158Mbs Used / 1.2Gbs Available.
