solutions to low internal memory on LG Shine Plus

[rymanh]

Everyone who owns this phone knows that the internal memory isn't exactly huge and it can be a huge factor on deciding what apps to download and keep..
Even after the 2.3.3 update you might notice that when you move an app to the SD card, a portion of the app size still remains on the internal memory..

there are ways to gain space on your LG Shine Plus for application and games..

1. what I used to do before the 2.3.3 update( I still do this).. was keep my apk files organized in a folder on the SD card and if I needed an application I would navigate to the file, click it, and install it on my phone. in relation to the size of an SD card, most apk files are extremely small in size, and it is possible to keep hundreds stored on your external memory depending on the size of the SD card..

2. this requires a rooted phone.. there are applications for a rooted device that allow you to move external applications to your ROM..such as ( titanium backup pro).. it will even allow you to integrate updates of system apps. thus freeing up invaluable space.. you can also delete virtually any application you like from your ROM ( but use extreme caution ) you should be certain of what you are deleting and whether or not your phone needs the file to run properly.. I recommend this only if you absolutely need the room

Another method is to use Darktremor's App2SD solution in my custom ROM. It lets you create an ext4 partition on your SD card which is automatically linked to data/app... This will copy all applications to that partition, thus freeing up the data partition.

Otherwise there's the Link2SD solution which is sensibly the same but with a FAT partition. Ext4 is a little faster on operations though.
