Android system memory is full of what to do. How to free up internal memory on Android in different ways? Not only cards

17.09.2020

Hello! Recently, a friend encountered a memory problem on his device. At the next attempt to download an application or a game from the Play Store, he constantly received an error. He told me that his tablet is not writing enough memory during the boot process from the service Google play... After that, he asked me a very reasonable question: "Why is this happening and how to get rid of this obsessive error?" And he sadly added that on the Internet, many are advised to restart the device or reset the settings to factory settings. In general, the essence of the problem is clear - we will understand.

There may be several reasons for this behavior on a tablet or smartphone. I think you understand that for the interaction and operation of the hardware and software, a part of the internal memory is given in the device for storing temporary and system files... As a rule, budget models do not please the owner with large volumes of internal memory and on average I have from 4 to 8 Gigabytes in my arsenal. As a result, even less of the declared volumes remains. This internal range changes every year for budget models, due to the general progress in the field of IT technologies.

However, the problem remains unsolved due to the parallel development of applications and software in general. The operating system is getting better, applications are constantly being improved and new ones are written, and in the end everything affects the amount of memory. Rather, on its insufficient internal volume. More expensive models of tablets / smartphones are difficult to blame for the small amount of memory (128 or more Gigabytes), but a similar problem sometimes arises here.

I must say that in the Android operating system, the / data folder is responsible for the memory area, where developers by default give it only 500 megabytes. As you can imagine, some of the internal memory in the device is allocated for the internal one. Consequently, in this matter, the physical volume of the built-in memory in the tablet model (8 or 64 Gigabytes) does not matter, since the system reserves no more than 500 megabytes.

Even storing applications not in the internal memory, but on an external SD card sometimes does not solve the problem. Settings, app cache and operating system, save in games and other information is still stored on the internal memory. Of course, there are programs that allow you to expand memory or redistribute in another way, but this is a topic for another article. The error with the message about insufficient memory can be caused for various reasons, so I will describe the solutions I know and will do, and you will share your methods in the comments.

What if there is not enough space on the tablet?

Based on the above, the first step is to check the available amount of internal memory on the device in the settings. You can view the memory status in the device settings by selecting the "Memory" item from the menu and finding the "Internal memory" section on the page. It graphically displays information about what types of files are taking up space and how much is available for the tablet.

In principle, there is enough space, but if you need to clear the internal memory, you can delete photos, music ... First transfer the files you need to the SD-card (read the details in the review), otherwise they will be deleted.


To put this into action, you need to click on "Erase Internal Storage" and all files will be deleted, and the programs will work. If there is enough space to download and then install the application, and the system continues to report an error, then try clearing the cache in google app Play Market (Path: "Applications" - "Third-Party" - "Google Play Store" - "Clear cache" button). Here, if necessary, you can erase the data, and then restart the device.


In addition, it will not be superfluous to enter the "Google Play Store" and find out if there are updates for installed applications... Surprisingly, it happens that available updates are collected there even when the "Update automatically" function is activated. Go to the application and click on the "Menu" button (usually located in the upper left corner) and select "My applications" from the drop-down list. If updates exist, then try to install them not all at once, but in order.

With a large accumulation of updates, you may have to delete some of them, having previously written down their names, and install the remaining ones in the tablet and only then update those that were on our list earlier. In some cases, this approach to the update process helps out.


You can also try transferring applications to an SD card. To do this, enter the device settings, select the "Applications" item in the menu and go to the "SD-card" tab, or in another way in some models it is called "USB-storage" for some reason. Here you need to turn your attention to applications that do not have a check box activated (not checked). It is these applications that you can move to an external drive, since those already checked are located on SD.


It must be said that some application widgets may no longer work after being deported to the SD card, so decide yourself to move them or not. Also on this page in all applications you can "Erase data" and "Clear cache". True, after these manipulations, the previously performed settings in these programs will be lost, but the problem with the lack of memory in the tablet (smartphone) may be solved.

To free up some more memory in the tablet, you can generally uninstall updates in low-demand system applications. Each person will likely have their own set, but as an option it can be, for example, "Google Speech Synthesizer". In the device settings on the "Applications" tab, go to its page and click on the "Delete updates" button.


In addition, it will not be superfluous to indicate the SD card as the preferred installation location. This option is usually located in the settings on the "Memory" tab.

By the way, it is extremely rare, but a problem arises when, after all, some application stubbornly does not want to be installed. In this case, you can try removing the SD card from the device, or simply change the setting I mentioned to install from "SD card" to "Internal memory". Before proceeding, you need to make sure that the internal memory is sufficient for the operation.

I want to draw your attention to the fact that you need to monitor the state of the internal memory:

  • If the free space is less than 30-50 Megabytes, then certain problems with installing applications may already arise.
  • Also, it will not be superfluous to periodically look at the Google Play market and track progress. automatic update applications. If necessary, do everything in manual mode.
  • Don't forget to close background applications.
  • It is best to uninstall apps that you are not using.

Depending on the tablet / smartphone model and the version of the operating system, the interface may differ slightly, but the principle of performing operations on these devices is the same. That's all. I hope you now understand why the tablet writes: "not enough memory" and you can independently solve this problem without reset android device to factory settings. If you have any questions or advice, then state them in the comments. While!

    Your question is not entirely clear, but I will try to answer. Temporary memory means RAM, and built-in memory means permanent memory. When there is not enough permanent memory, it is recommended to transfer part of the files (applications, games) to the SD card for storage.

    2019-02-09T09: 47: 04 + 00: 00

    "I think you understand that for the interaction and operation of the hardware and software, a part of the internal memory is given in the device for storing temporary and system files." I can't understand why they recommend transferring applications to the sd card. Why can't they be transferred to a huge other part of the built-in memory?

    2016-12-14T00: 04: 21 + 00: 00

    It's trite, but do you upload directly to the SD card? Give more information to suggest some sensible solution. Maybe the message is accompanied or an error ... If possible, attach a screenshot.

    This is a standard warning and in any case, everything can be returned to square one after rebooting the device or resetting to factory settings. Disabling even some system applications usually does not affect the operation of an Android tablet or smartphone.

    2016-08-20T08: 40: 29 + 00: 00

    Hello! When I click Disable, Stop, it tells me that if I disable the built-in application, then other applications may not work correctly. In addition, all data will be deleted. It scares me and stops me. Should I be afraid of this?

    2016-08-15T15: 32: 12 + 00: 00

    Try: 1. Remove unnecessary applications / games; 2. Clear unnecessary contents of the "Download / Downloads" and TEMP directories; 3. Delete logs in the DATA folder (Root rights are required); 4. Move applications to SD card ("Options / Applications"). 5. Reset to factory settings. P.S. In general, the first thing for any glitch is to go to "Settings"\u003e "Applications"\u003e "Application Management"\u003e "Market" (Google Play)\u003e Clear cache / data / default values \u200b\u200b(you can not all at once, but only one or two In addition, background data transfer and Google account synchronization must be enabled for Google Play to function properly. Since you cannot install the application, I will not recommend Clean Master, Link2SD. Good luck!

Smartphones have become a guide for many of us in today's information-filled world. It is not enough for our gadget to get access to this information - it needs to be "caught": saved for a short or long time, in order to show us, immediately or later. Let's sort it out on the shelves.

RAM

This type of memory affects how complex applications you can run on your smartphone, as well as how many simultaneously running programs your gadget can pull. All the data that the applications are using right now, as well as the data that the operating system of your smartphone needs at that moment, is in random access memory... They, for example, will contain the content of the opened page in the browser or the ribbon social network, everything that you see on the screen in your favorite game, or the letter from your work mail that you read. Actually, the code of the executable programs themselves is also loaded into RAM. As soon as some information in RAM is no longer relevant, it is deleted from there. On a switched off smartphone, the RAM is empty, nothing is stored there without power supply.

The amount of RAM on your gadget greatly affects its performance. If there is not enough RAM on it, then very "heavy" pages on the Internet may not load, the response to your commands will be slow, and some programs will not start at all. Modern smartphones can have from 1 GB to 6 GB of RAM, and the more there is, the more expensive the device, all other things being equal. The nuance is that you cannot say how much RAM is enough for you. It all depends on what programs you use, how many of them you need to keep constantly running. You will understand that you do not have enough "RAM" by the symptoms described above. Unfortunately, it is impossible to increase the amount of RAM in a smartphone: all that remains is either to moderate appetites or to buy another model.

Inner memory

RAM, of course, is also inside your smartphone, but we are talking about something else. Internal memory is where your programs, photos, music, notes are stored. The fundamental difference between RAM and internal memory is that information on the latter is stored even without power supply, and by turning off the gadget, you do not risk losing all your wealth. In a simplified way, everything happens like this: when you need to use something that you have saved, you give a command, and it is copied into RAM, and you can see the picture, hear the song, start using the program. At the same time, much that is in RAM can be saved to internal memory to be used later if necessary - for example, text from a page on the Internet or a picture. If you download a program from the application store, then it is also placed in the internal memory, in transit through the RAM.

The amount of internal memory of a smartphone has almost no effect on its performance. However, it is clear that the more such memory you have, the more data you can store on your smartphone. Here you need to take into account the nuance: on a smartphone, in the characteristics of which you see, say, 16 GB of internal memory, you can use at your discretion a much smaller volume - 9-11 GB, depending on the model. If the memory on the smartphone, according to its characteristics, is even less, then the share of usable space for your needs in the specified amount of memory will also decrease. The fact is that part of the internal memory is already occupied by the operating system and applications that cannot be deleted.

Modern gadgets can have from 4 GB to 256 GB - and the more, the more expensive the device. When choosing a smartphone, keep in mind that you cannot change the reality again: you will not be able to buy additional internal memory for yourself. Although this moment can sometimes be circumvented - which we will talk about further.

Expandable memory

Most Android smartphones (but not all) allow you to solve the problem of lack of internal memory by installing a microSD card into the gadget - an accessory the size of a pinky fingernail that can store from 4 GB to 256 GB of information. This type of memory is called expandable. The allowed card size depends on the capabilities of your smartphone. The most inexpensive smartphones, which usually have 4GB of internal storage, will only add up to 32GB through a microSD card.

Not everything is equally convenient to store on a memory card, and not everything is possible, and therefore the tactics of buying a smartphone with a minimum of internal memory with the aim of “building up” it with a card does not always justify itself. The memory card works slower than the internal one, and if you store frequently used applications there, this will affect the performance of the gadget. Some programs do not "know" how to live on microSD, and some smartphones do not know how to "register" programs on cards. As a result, a microSD card is an excellent storage medium for photos, videos, documents, but not always suitable for storing programs.

Not only cards

Some smartphones and tablets allow you to connect USB sticks or even external hard drives via the USB port. The characteristics of such gadgets indicate support for the USB-OTG (on the go, on the go) function. This is also a kind of expandable memory for a smartphone. It is clear that these devices cannot be used permanently connected to the gadget, and therefore they are suitable, basically, for archiving data or extracting something from a previously created archive.

Remote extension

We conclude the review with the youngest way of storing data - the cloud. This storage option has gained particular importance with the development of the mobile Internet and the expansion of 3G and 4G cellular networks, because now even a large amount of information can be transferred in a short time from a smartphone. There are several free cloud services - Yandex, Mail.ru, Google, etc. Each of them will give you several gigabytes for free and any additional volume for money. Life hack: use several services at once, and you will have more free space for your data.

Storing data in the "cloud" is an excellent solution for those whose smartphones do not support connecting memory cards or external devices... In addition, the cloud service is an excellent means of exchanging information between your different devices: smartphones, tablets and computers.

The minus of the "cloud" is its dependence on the mobile Internet. If you are in an area of \u200b\u200bunstable reception of a cellular network, and there is no access to Wi-Fi either, you will be cut off from the "cloud", and it will be cut off from you.

Let's draw conclusions? When your memory is bad, it is definitely not in your favor. An experienced smartphone user will buy it while gazing into specifications gadget contenders. Not the least important points in the characteristics for our experienced user will be information about the RAM and internal memory. An average smartphone in terms of its capabilities and price today is equipped with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory, but this does not mean that less is not enough, but more is a lot: everything depends on the tasks that the smartphone will solve. Any gadget with minimal characteristics is suitable for all basic tasks: mail, social networks, browser, simple games, photography.

In addition, our advanced buyer will pay attention to microSD card support and their capacity limits. If it is necessary to connect external hard drives or USB flash drives to a smartphone, the buyer will check this point with the seller. Finally, those who want to use all the conveniences of cloud services will take care of a suitable tariff plan that includes the required Internet traffic package.

One of the weak points of the Android OS is the system memory, especially if the technical specifications of the device exclude the possibility of adding it. The situation is further complicated by the fact that over time all sorts of installation modules and files accumulate, which noticeably affects the speed of the gadget. Therefore, many users are beginning to wonder - how to free up system memory on Android?

There are several known effective methods, which will be discussed in this guide.

Modern phones (tablets) have system (built-in) memory and additional memory cards. And, if (if there is nothing valuable on it), then with system memory everything is a little more complicated.

Cleaning through the built-in conductor

Is the memory full? You can use a special conductor, which is in the device itself (in different devices the name may differ):

Open the utility, select the category that needs cleaning. These can be applications or documents, archives or images, videos or music. At the top, find the pencil image (edit) and click on it:

The contents of the folder of the selected category will appear in the window that opens, mark unnecessary files... Delete them by clicking on the trash can icon:

Cleaning with Clean Master

The next way is to use the Clean Master utility, which is considered one of the most popular, significantly speeding up the work of mobile devices. Applications running on the device not only "eat up" the memory, but also the battery charge. The new task killer implemented in the program will be able to terminate the work of unwanted applications, which will free up a significant amount of memory and increase the speed of the device. You will not need superuser rights, but if you have them, the task killer will function better.

The work algorithm is quite simple:

Run Clean Master - a window opens with two circles, where the larger one characterizes the system memory, and the smaller one characterizes the operative memory:

Select "Memory" (can be "Device" or otherwise) - the scanning process starts. As a result of the check, it becomes clear what exactly will help free memory.

A table opens where you need to select those files that can be deleted or compressed, confirm their deletion by clicking on "Save":

The cleaning process may take some time, after which the message "Space is freed" will pop up.

Cleaning with the task manager

You can clear memory using the built-in task manager:

  • Go to the "Settings" menu.
  • Select the "Applications" submenu.
  • Clear memory by selecting a utility (one or more applications) and clicking "Uninstall".

Transferring Apps to SD Card

There are situations when the memory has disappeared somewhere, although the user has not managed to install anything yet. This can be explained:

  • the presence of viruses - you will have to run an extraordinary (thorough) scan with one of the many antiviruses;
  • updating previously installed programs that take up more and more free space.

If the problem with viruses disappears, then you need to configure the storage (memory on Android). Simply put, any application can be transferred to a memory card. The main thing is to follow these steps:

  • Enter the "Settings" menu.
  • Click on the program (icon) to be moved.
  • Transfer it to the memory card by selecting the appropriate button.

Unfortunately, this method is only suitable for those programs that are not systemic.

Saving data to external media

Among the installed applications, there are probably those that save data received from the network to the device. The simplest example is readers and online players. To prevent the internal memory of your phone (tablet) from overflowing, you need to configure them so that all data is written to an external card.

Using cloud services

There is no need for modern users to store information on Android that may never be useful. It is necessary to keep in memory only what is important at the moment. All other data can be safely uploaded to the cloud storage, where they will wait in the wings.

As you can see from our material, even the most advanced user will be able to optimize his Andryukha. Well, for clarity of the procedure - video

(4 estimates)

If your device does not have enough internal memory, can use SD card as internal storage for your android phone. This feature, called Adoptable Storage, allows the Android OS to format external storage media as permanent internal storage. The information on the installed SD-card is encrypted and cannot be further used on another device.

SD Card is a very convenient option for storing photos, songs and videos. Even if you have a large amount of internal storage on your Android smartphone, you may always need a large chunk of storage space to store long videos captured by your phone's high-definition camera.

It is important to know

There is one drawback, the LED chip may lag when recording high definition video.

Android by default installs applications in internal memory and only occasionally uploads data to the SD card. Thus, you are deprived of installing any additional applications if your phone is experiencing a lack of internal storage, for example, in the case of budget devices on Android One.

What is cumulative storage?

Accumulative storage is the main memory of your smartphone, but if necessary, it can be expanded by using an SD card.

This on Android is called Adoptable Storage. This will allow you to use the removable microSD card installed on your Android phone as your primary storage. Thus, you can easily solve the problem of how to make an SD card the main memory on Android and overcome the lack of space if the phone has a small internal volume.

Features of using the map as the main storage

There are some important things to consider in this procedure.

Will be useful

When using a storage device, be it an SD-flash drive or a USB-drive, it is important to remember what format this device is in and whether it is supported by the Android operating system, and there are four types of main file formats: FAT32 or exFAT, ext4 or f2fs.

How to change phone memory to android memory card? The question is not entirely correct, it is impossible to completely replace it, you can only "increase" the additional volume.

Using your SD-card as your primary storage device can be a great solution for music lovers and TV shows on the way to work or on a long trip. But, as often happens, memory expansion always depends on the cost of the required device, because they differ both in speed and in volume, as well as in the adaptable function of storing information. Here are some nuances that can be viewed from different angles - both in the negative direction and in the positive:

  • SD cards are slow. This is the painful reality of today's tiny memory chips. While they can store tons of data, they are slower than phone storage and have a limited number of read-write cycles.
  • It is important to know

    Using SD cards as permanent storage will require more frequent read / write operations, which will degrade performance over time and in the worst case can result in complete data loss. It will be especially offensive if there are important documents or expensive for memory photos or unique videos.

    Before changing the phone memory to a memory card, your Android will perform a performance test of the SD card to make sure that it is fast enough and can meet the parameters for use as a main storage.

  • Non-returnable integration into the operating system. With the Adoptable Storage feature, the Android operating system encrypts the external SD card used as internal storage, so it binds to a specific device, without the possibility of further use on another smartphone. The key used to encrypt data on the SD card is stored in the main memory of the Android device. Thus, it is impossible to dismantle the received storage on another phone due to its encrypted nature of the data (you can remove the card, but it will not be detected on another phone).
  • However, you can remove the external removable storage from your device and put it back in plain flash mode. The device will remember what is on this card to restore the settings when the accepted device is connected later. Thus, you can also use another storage device.

    It is important to know

    Always make sure that you do not remove the default SD card during the unmounting procedure, otherwise the storage medium may be damaged.

  • Not all programs can be installed. Almost Android can install almost all applications on its internal storage. However, this also depends on the consent of the application developer. He has the right to enable or disable support for the accepted repository in the application by adding appropriate attributes to the code of the downloaded program.
  • How to use SD card as internal storage on Android?

    How to replace internal phone memory with external sd card on android? Configuring your SD card to act as internal storage on Android is essentially a fairly straightforward process. There is nothing complicated about this, and you will see for yourself later on.

    note

    Please note that your SD card will be formatted during the process. Don't forget to do backup data by temporarily transferring them to the main unit of the phone, desktop computer, laptop or other smart device.

    It is possible that the Adoptable Storage function is not supported by your device, even if the smartphone is running Android 6.0 or higher (it also happens, it all depends on the model and brand of the smartphone). The device manufacturer may have disabled this feature. However, there are command line techniques that force the use of a flash drive to store data.

    The following are the basic steps for formatting.

    • Place the SD card on android phone and wait for it to be defined or displayed in.
    • Now open "Settings".
    • Scroll down and go to the "Storage" section.
    • Tap the name of your SD card.
    • Tap the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the screen.
    • Click "Storage Settings".
    • Select the "as internal option" format.
    • On the next screen, you have one last chance to decide for yourself if you want to change your mind.

We use smartphones every day and over time, the internal memory runs out, it becomes impossible to write new files. In such situations, as well as as a preventive measure, it is necessary to clear the internal and operational memory. This can be done by the capabilities of the OS of the smartphone itself, using special programs, or by connecting a mobile device to a computer. Let's consider the main ways how to free up memory on Android.

With the active use of a mobile phone, it is necessary to clear the internal memory from time to time. Even without writing new data to the smartphone, the space in the internal storage is clogged with the cache of applications, browsers and other garbage. This leads to the fact that it is impossible to install a new game from the playmarket on the phone or download your favorite movie for viewing. In addition, clogged memory can cause system slowdowns and glitches. So how do you clear the internal memory? Let's consider the main methods, with and without a PC.

Saving Files to a microSD Card

Before you clean up the free space of the internal storage on your tablet or smartphone, you must prevent further loading. To do this, you need to set the saving of the created files to the memory card in the settings of the following applications:

  • Camera.
  • Voice recorder.
  • Internet browsers.
  • Various applications in which data is created, edited and saved.
  • Mobile messengers that exchange multimedia files (skype, vibe, etc.).
  • Downloaders of music, pictures, movies, torrents.
  • GPS maps, navigators.

Now the created files will be automatically saved on the microSD card without clogging up the internal memory of your phone.

Move to microSD card without PC

To move files without a computer, you will need an explorer installed - file manager... In some models of Android smartphones and tablets, it is installed as standard software, but in most cases it must be downloaded separately. One of the most functional and convenient file managers that can be downloaded for free from the playmarket is the ES Explorer utility. Its main advantage lies in the ability to select and set an action for several folders or files at once.

To move files in the explorer, select them with a long press. Note that to select several documents, you need to check the boxes opposite their names. After selecting the files, you must click in the lower area of \u200b\u200bthe screen on the "more" tab, and in it select the item "move to". Next, you need to select the path to the sd card, create or use a previously created directory on it.

Moving from Android using a computer

In order to transfer files from the internal memory of a mobile phone to an SD card or to any other external storage, use a computer. This will require:

  • The Android smartphone or tablet itself.
  • Windows or Mac OS computer.
  • USB cable.
  • Your driver mobile device and other software installed on the PC.

Having connected a mobile phone to a computer, you need to select the "data transfer" connection mode. After that, the files of the internal memory and sd card will be displayed as a separate section on the PC. They can be moved, deleted or copied just like any other files on the computer, freeing up space on the internal storage of the mobile phone.

If you are uncomfortable with connecting your phone to a PC with a USB cable all the time, you can use the free AirDroid service. It allows you to connect Android to your computer both remotely and while in the same wireless wi-Fi networks... The user also gets access to files stored in the internal memory of the mobile phone. All you need is free access to the Internet for both devices and any browser through which the phone files will be managed from a PC.
You can familiarize yourself with setting up the AirDroid service and its main features in the video below.

Transferring Apps to a microSD Card
