[Q] MIUI ROM & Apps2SD, not working? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried out the MIUI ROM yesterday after I read a thread in the general section about how great it is. One thing that isn't working for me is the Apps2SD. My current ext size is 912Mb, and it is currently ext4. When I go to "menu > settings > system > SD card settings" I get the image below:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The phone states my "A2SD+" total space is 0.00B (even thought I just formatted my SD card, and made ext-size = ~912Mb) and the available space is 0.00B.
I have read that in some ROMs the available space is sometimes the wrong value here, so I ran Apps2SD thru RA-recovery, everything went successful. But when I restart my phone, I still get the notification that I am running low on storage, meaning it did NOT work after all.
If anything has any hints/ideas/comments/information about this, please do leave a comment and help me out. Thank you.

Kindle fire internal/external storage partitions. How much space does it really have?

I started http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075884 asking people to show/teach me how to move around partitions/virtuals in the device's memory drive.
My response however (as you can see in the link) was "you only have 8gb anyway, & about 3gb is used for system...
I'm just wondering, is anything wrong with my device? Please take a few minutes & test it yourselves.
Use http://goo.gl/jQBhs es file manager & check size of all files & folders at root dir - / (go back to parent of all, long press & hit select all, long press again, & hit properties). My results after about 20 minutes of waiting, was about 25gb!

[Q] PACMan Rom SD Card Problem

Hi Folks,
I've just installed pac_t0lte-nightly-20130918.zip and I'm seeing some strange behaviour.
The ROM itself is great - I love it! However, I've noticed that it appears to be sulking a bit with my SD Card. (64GB SAN Disk)
I don't believe that there is anything wrong with the SD Card itself, but rather some kind of mounting problem, as I can read, browse and view pictures & video from it on /storage/sdcard1.
However, when looking in the settings things are a little bizarre. I've attempted to attach some screenshots below, but suffice to say, the size appears to be reported correctly in the Storage section, but the '/sd-ext (EXT)' is 'Unavailable'.
Anyone any ideas?

I have the exact same issue, I have no idea how to fix it, I've changed cards, I've changed the Rom, I've tried a fix on the rw permissions. Nothing changed. I've got a backup app that won't let me restore because it can't find it.

System recognizes SD-card but will not install apps on it

I just installed Beanstalk Release 6 on my HTC Desire and partitioned the SD-card with the mentioned partition guide. Everything works as it should except that I am not able to install apps on the SD-card.
For some reason the SD-card is not recognized by some parts of the system. In a file manager and under Device -> Storage the card is there just fine..

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
...but under Device -> Partition info and under Manage apps the card is either reported as not available or simply not there:
This somehow means that I am able to put content on the SD-card but I am not able to install apps on it. I have tried re-partitioning with both the size and file system the guide proposes and with other sizes and systems but with no luck. Anyone know how to fix this so I can install apps on the SD-card?
Thank you
Solved by installing release 7. This thread can be closed.

System taking up too much storage (19GB on 7.1 DP2)

Hi, guys.
I was using the Pixel ROM for my N5X 32GB and everything was fine, but I missed being 100% stock. So yesterday I flashed the 7.1.1 Developer Preview 2 and everything seemed fine. I left my apps downloading overnight. I usually download all my Spotify library and that takes up about 8GB of my storage - which was NEVER a problem, I've always had at least 2GB free in the previous ROMs.
The thing is, when I woke up today, I had lots of notifications saying I ran out of storage and when I checked, system alone was taking almost 19GB of my storage!!! I guess that's not normal at all. What have I done wrong? Do I need to format any partition? I'm clueless.
thanks for your help.

Help with Storage/Partition! MAIN

As you can see in the screenshot below the OS Occupied size is 8.63 and internal storage or partition size of ext4 is just ~23gb, Very less for a device with 32gb storage.
So i dig into this problem and found that 8gb includes my TWRP backup i took a long back ago, Now i want to delete it but i can't find it. I tried for searching backups in TWRP but there's none i think TWRP looks in ext4 that is it only searches in 23gb, not 8gb.
I spent the whole night yesterday to fix it but no success. I want my ext4 partition to take the normal space that near about ~29-30gb and i want to delete that backup. I want my partitions to be as it was before (its fked up)
