Internal Phone Storage Dropping

[Guest garagemc]

Hi.

I installed the latest Cyanogen Mod. My SD card is formatted properly. I have done A2SD check and all seems to be fine.

Yet my internal phone storage seems to be gradually dropping. It is down to about 8mb.

I thought the apps I had installed where being installed internally for some reason. So I tested it be rebooting the phone without the SD card. The apps where no longer there, hence disproving my thesis. The apps are being installed on the SD card, but the internal memory is falling.

Has anyone got any remedial solutions/ does anyone else have this problem?

Probably its the Dalvik cache still running from internal.. (You can see it when doing a2sd check)

In Terminal type:

su

a2sd cachesd

(Or please have a look at the Ultimate Pulse Owners Guide, sticky at the top!)

Okay, so I have done this. Thanks.

But this has brought internal phone storage up to about 21mb - I started off with about 40mb if I remember correctly? Where have these 20mb gone? Is it normal?
