Help Memory almost full.

[nathanotis]

I installed Lnt 10.1_0725 last night, dirty flash over another version of CM 10, Gapps at the same time, rebooted a couple times, allowing the TP to update completely. Aside from 2 issues, it seems to be running really well...

1. "Unfortunately, Android keyboard has stopped."

2. I'm getting a low memory warning, also. "settings/aps" shows I have 53ish mb available. I started digging through files to see what happened and I've found something confusing. While looking at the file structure under /storage, I see sdcard, sdcard0 and usbstick.

Near as I can tell, sd and sd0 are duplicated... I can't figure out which one I need to format or clear things out of... I'm sure this is pretty simple (or maybe I missed a new step 'cause I haven't messed with my HPTP for a while).

Help me out?

What version of CM10 did you install this O.a.T version of CM10.2 over the top of?

And did you clear all cache and data before the installation? Many ROMS will act funny (or even crash) when fed data from earlier versions.

I can't say for certain. I can restore my back up to find out. As a point of clarification, the installed version is LnTTP_CM10.1_0725.

The posts I read stated a dirty flash over other CM10s was working best. I don't think that would address my memory issue, either.

Did you resize any partitions to install either rom?

Try to install both of these programs, freespace and clean master. Run CM and do the basic junk file clean. See if freespace shows data or system as running low on space.

I did not partition. Back when I was using the TP regularly, there was never any need (or mention of it in casual rom flashing circles). I uninstalled a bunch of stuff and install the apps you suggested. After running basic AND advanced CM, numbers are as follows:

Boot/78% full, Cache/44% full, Internal/data/85% full, Micro SD/50% full, System, 57% full.

I sure would like to utilize my SD storage to free up internal data...

I'm thinking of going back to stock, then starting from scratch with the LnT CN 10.1 I installed last night.

Opinions?

So if you flashed CM10.1 without increasing your /system partition, you are most likely dangerously close to having little or no space left in /system. Depending on which ACMEInstaller you use,
ACME3 = 400mb, ACME4 = 500mb, ACME5 = 600mb of space on one's /system.

Secondly, don't start moving .apk's to the SD card. If you want to keep alot of installed apps, increase your /data partition using one of J.C. Sullin's size increase patches.

You really need to go read the OP of this thread:

[ROM GUIDE] How to install Android on the HP TouchPad "The Easy Way" - HP Touchpad - RootzWiki

In particular, watch the video that Roland just posted about installing Android.

And for the memory size increase patch, here:

Fixes for SDCARD issues for all versions of CyanogenMod - HP Touchpad - RootzWiki

Read the part of the OP about the patches for increasing the internal memory and the last 15 pages of the thread. Ignore the rest, it does not apply.

Awesome. I'll get reading. Thanks for the links.
