Can someone post, LG Leon Bloatware list on system apps, and location of system files (copies of afks and etc.) that can be deleted to release a little bit internal memory on phone since, i posted thread about 10E version of phone, and probably that version cannot be rooted yet..

Thank you :)!
 
So, one thing you could do that may be effective if you are like me is; every now and then move everything from internal to external. Just one huge copy/paste. Works for me.

Hm, you mean to copy emulated (internal) O storage to memory card or just to go to apps and click option "Move to SD card"?

And yes, another question is, will "Move to SD Card" option work with Installed Apps also?
Because it's workin' on Photos, Videos but I doesn't tried it with small little apps, or FB app, I only tested with large games and it doesn't work and also saw warning on "Clean Master" that "Moving apps from Internal storage isn't enabled on your device"...

What does this mean? I can move simple files like pictures, movies, videos, but can't move installed big apps and games...?
I mean c'mon, why did the creator of device just did this crap...

Thank you for answer, I just uninstalled and disabled all apps that I will not use :)

Ah, so /data and /storage/sdcard0 are the same partition, but /system isn't.

So summarize for those non-technical users, freeing up space in /system does not free up data for apps and data as seen in settings, storage.

Can't wait for link2sd and foldermount support. Almost makes me want to go back to my 3.9G++ HSPA++++++ LG L70 :-(

Unfortunately moving an app to sd doesn't actually move to SD, it compresses it into /mnt/asec which is still internal.. Sorry

Why are people still asking about app data to SD on stock? I've said it a million times...
There will not be any support anytime soon for data on external storage. Not with Link2sd, foldermount, gl2sd, xposed modules...nothing. Google and LG screwed us on that front. It has been accomplished on other devices running similar android versions but ours does not. It'll take some real good modification of a stock based ROM to do it. But as of now there is no hope.
You could always transfer the obb/data folders back and forth between storage when you want to playa game. It only ever takes a minute. Thats what i did.
If you want this feature, buck up and flash CM 12.1. The apps I mentioned work flawlessly and will save you a ton of space. Yes, CM has it's quirks at the moment with battery percentage, CPU clock speeds and video capture not working but they are only an update or 2 away and its well worth it to deal with them for now.

I found that if you stay in power save mode, it'll update battery every so often so it won't just die in your hand. Use xposed, gravity box. It has an option to hide warning colors in power save, then hide the power save ongoing notification with GB as well. The added bonus is you tweak gov settings just right and it'll ramp down perfectly. I've screen capped my battery updating, works across reboot so I assume it works for everyone. I'm talking about cm12. If app storage is really that important to you, foldermount works too. /endthread

Lol, it was about messing with governor tuning to allow CPU frequencies to fluctuate properly. Unfortunately my settings hurt performance and they didn't react appropriately on CPU load like theyre supposed to.
CM is great, but that kernel though...
Honestly? If you're really that interested in making this rom usable for a daily driver I'll show you what simple gov settings will make it work. Just PM me. Same for anyone at ANY time, I will respond accordingly.

I'm already using it as a DD and I plan to keep using it. The issues with the kernel I have mostly come down to the CPU not responding properly to load (freq always much higher than they should be, even at 13% usage) and touch boost (freq ramps to max for approx 3 seconds whenever you touch the screen) is seriously inefficient.
I've messed with the governor tuning for ondemand and observed how it handles load with MANY settings for about 3 hours and it just doesn't work the way it should. I've gotten the freq to fluctuate at lower values but they will stay there regardless of CPU usage.
I can document this with MC5 if you'd like. Its a taxing game and pushes the limits on CPU GPU load. But there's no way the CPU freq should idle at 533/800mhz while playing until you touch the screen and boost activates.
Regardless, I'll shoot you a PM
