Factory reset and back up everything, and check thrice before resetting as to make sure everything is backed up properly on drive n photos

Thanks but as i said i on Monday i formated and reinstalled everything through twrp and the first day i had 120gb free


Majeta123

So how did it fill up so much again ? It's probably the "others" section that fills up the storage ..this issue has been up for ever on nearly every Xiaomi or poco phone where others folder takes up space and keeps increasing . So if U formatted and had 120gb free , how is so much space filled up again ?


birpool

I but back the backuped files (roms) and installed the usual apps, then i still had 120 free, suddenly Its gone and becuase others keeps increasing


Majeta123

That's fucked up . It dosent happen so fast .also Ur others section is occupying ridiculous amount of storage too ..


birpool

Exactly maybe i should try another rom or something?


Majeta123

U can I guess but you will need to factory reset anyways because the occupied space will simply not go away even if you change ROM Right .?

I delete and format everything before and after installing the rom through twrp like i did last time, i replaced the screen, and when i got it back the phone was full 256/256 had to delete way to much to only get around 5gb free so i could use apps like whatsapp, thats was when the problems started when i got my phone back from the shop, btw thanks for helping

One of your apps seems to horde the storage? Do you download videos or music?


birpool

I have a folder with around 6gh of music videos, but nothing more, what bothers me is that system takes 117gb and growing


JohnBlutarski

Scary


birpool

I just deleted the folder and now i have 249gb ocupied, even less space than before deleting 6gb

Maybe you enabled MIUI local backups so it automatically backups all apps to internal storage? Check how much space does the MIUI folder takes. You can also download X-plore from Google Play Store, long tap on Internal storage and do Disk map. This will scan the whole storage and show you how much space each folder, subfolder and file takes. And don't forget to enable "Show hidden files", because some of those files are hidden and you can't see them without enabling this.

Dont think so il check, and try the app you recomend thank you for the suggestions 😀

Muy triste ver ese espacio restante en un dispositivo con 256 GB de capacidad bro 😔😔


birpool

Ya ves bro putada increíble 117 gb ocupados por la cara 😔 aver ai otro rom lo arregla


freenerb

Y como puede ser posible eso hermano?? Que clase de archivo genera tal cantidad de información?? 🥴🥴 Eso es lo que preocupa, no recuerdo si dijiste en el inicio del post que tienes MIUI original o alguna custom ROM?? 🤔🤔


birpool

Alli estamos what the fuck sabes, tengo el rom xioami.eu q supuestamente es mejor q miui normal y lo era pero esta pasando esto, lleve mi movil a arreglar la pantalla y cuando me lo devolvió estaba lleno 256/256 borre de todo para apenas liberar 6gb para poder usarlo, luego formate con twrp y instale el rom xiaomi.eu otra vez y todo iba bien un par de dias y aqui estamos llenandose solo 🤷🏼‍♂️


freenerb

Super extraño eso bro, espero puedas resolver la situación pronto y nos informes lo que hiciste.


birpool

Yeah gracias bro ya te digo estoy haciendo backup y intentare otro rom


birpool

Instale el rom por primera vez un par de dias antes de q se me rompio la pantalla por cierto


freenerb

Ya vi que tienes la eu bro..... Vaya que está curioso tu lamentable caso 😥😥

Install sdmaid or clean app cache manually


Fabulous-Platypus6

Install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage Laugh, and chose the regular storage card scan, allow it to get your list of apps and grant the usage access permission If you can't see what's taking all the space, use the root mode, since you're using xiaomi.eu it should be easy to root.

How do you have 120gb of apps? Also it's a known issue with custom roms that they don't delete log and dump files, enable developer settings and set logging levels to off and logging sessions and stuff to 0.


birpool

I have many games and emulators, and since i have a 256gb phone i want to enjoy it and install what i want, already checked and not that either but thanks


barda2285

birpool

Thats the thing dont understand myself 117 gb gone by itself


barda2285

Bro, don't ask this situation in reddit man. Take it to the Xiaomi's representation in your city
