Root Internal Memory

I have had my Commando rooted since new (M080) and use Titanium Pro for managing the apps, but for some reason, even with as many apps moved to the SD card as possible, I still have a memory issue on the phone.
Here is how it read in TP.
System ROM - 314 MB (124 Free) - That one is OK
Internal - 419MB (48.0 MB Free) - Not OK and I have moved every app and program to the SD card
SD Card - 7.93 GB (6.34 GB Free) - Plenty of room!

Not sure what else I can move to SD or a way to clear up the internal memory.
I cleaned the Dalvik cache too!

Any suggestions on where to go next?
 
I thought so. Or if I didn't they are at least frozen. I know that is not the same as removing them. A little afraid of bricking the phone.

I guess I can find the list under the All Things Root?

Thanks
 
Yeah. It won't brick it. Do you have the custom recovery by get it now marketing? You can make a nandroid backup. The bad experiences I've had with the commando was having to return everything to stock for warranty replacements.
 
If you have any system apps that were updated, you can try integrating the updates into rom....via TB.
That should buy you some spsce.

I just integrated the Youtube update..this moved
the 6mb update to rom....free'd up 6mb of ram.
 
One thing you could do is uninstall the updates on unnecessary apps like VCast junk ect. Since you froze them instead of uninstalling they still are on your phone memory. And since you froze them you don't use them so they don't need their updates which suck down space.

By doing that and moving downloaded apps that don't let you move them normally (without TB)
I froze all my stock bloatware/apps or else I would have more room. But with freezing them and uninstalling updates I still get good internally memery for all stock apps installed.

I now have 115Mb free internally. 2860mb used
Ram 150mb free 120mb used
SD 13gb free 17gb used.

Also clear all apps caches and delete text messages and any photos that may be internally stored.
 
Thanks.
I'm always worried I will remove the wrong app or file and brick the phone!

Especially when TP warns that its and apk file that can require a ROM reload. I guess if its frozen its safe to remove since the phone is not using the file.

I did remove the XT9 file and the phone got stuck on a fail screen and would not close. Had to remove the battery to make it stop. It did not stop the reboot and works fine, but that kind of stuff makes me nuts!

I cleared some cache and now have

ROM - 118mb free
Internat - 63.4 free - would like more free space
SD - 6.20 gb free - not worried about the SD.

Thanks

It is safe to uninstall the update, not the entire app. Well there is an list which apps are safe to uninstall but if you. But if your trying to keep system apps on the phone just in case, then uninstall the updates then freeze them, is the best way.
 
You can uninstall the updates using the stock manage apps settings page. Click on the app and uninstall update.

Thanks, one more question.

Is there a way to move all my photos to the SD card. I checked inside of TP for the gallery and it does not show move to SD card as an option.

Is there something I need to do to have it save all photos to the SD card??
