Random storage error, please help! - Xiaomi Redmi 4X Questions & Answers

I use Redmi 4X 2/16 with LineageOS 15.1 for around 1 month. And been using my Micro SD as adoptable storage (Sandisk UHS-1 Class 10 32GB).
Today i woke up to my phone, only to find many pop up message "App A has been closed" "App B has been closed" "App C has been closed" turns out that i cannot run all of my installed apps on Adoptable storage.
Tried to move some apps from external to internal, and vice versa, it always shows "Not enough space" even when i have over 8GB space of internal, and 15 GB space of external.
Turns out that my internal storage has problem too. I cannot write anything on my Internal storage. Tried to take screenshots, downloading files from drive/web, downloading apps from playstore, downloading magisk module, all of them fails with "not enough storage space" message even after i eject my sd card.
Is there any way to fix this? or prevent this frin happening? thanks before!

[Q] memory problems internal and sd

My phone displays that I only have 8GB total to store things on my sd card even though I have I have the 16GB card that came with it. It also displays 4GB internal for storage even though in settings it says 8GB. Any ideas what is wrong?
i to am having some isues but not the same as yours. when i mount my phone to my computer it will only mount the external sd card. cant seem to get the internal storage to mount. sometimes when i download an app is tells me not enough space when there is plenty of space.
with the messed up way motorola has partitioned the internl storage, it is causing alot of isues.
Well I know on my nook color (rooted and running cyanogen) when I try to mount the internal to the computer it doesn't work either so I'm not sure if the problem is the device or a limitation of Android.
Oh and I have had the not enough space message pop up when trying to download some apps I've found retrying the download or rebooting has helped.

[Q] export data to sd card & internal storage

alright guys, I have miui on my Nexus one and was having no problems up until tonight. I started with 21 mb of internal storage, and suddenly my phone had a pop up asking if I wanted to "export my data to my SD card" it then went on to explain it would move pictures, screenshots, data, etc from my internal storage, to my SD card. And I thought, awesome, now I'll have more space. But now I'm down to 11 mb of internal storage, and keep getting an low memory error. My SD card has plenty of space, 3.6 gb left. This low memory issue is driving me insane, and I don't understand how I ended up LOSING internal storage when I thought I would gain it. Can someone please help me out?
You're running MIUI, I guess - I don't remember this message on any other ROM.
And you probably don't have A2SD running - because otherwise you wouldn't be left without memory.
Reboot the phone, it'll probably restore you back to 21MB of free space. Then read up on A2SD, partition your SD card and enable A2SD.

"Move to SD Card" giving "Couldn't move app" error

Strangely, I recalled I was able to move apps into SD but it stopped working now and keep getting the error "Couldn't move app".
I'm on RR3 + Franco v5.
Any idea why ?
EDIT: Just realised my EXTERNAL SD card is full. Wonder why isn't it moving to Internal USB storage instead ? Is External SD having priority over Internal USB ?

Help needed! Galaxy Tab A SM-P580 - SD card as internal storage issue :(

Well, I'm not exactly sure how it happened, but my tablet (with TWRP, Magisk and its ExSDCard Access Enabler module) finally recognized the 400GB SD card I dropped in it and allowed me to format it as internal storage. Then the fun (not really) began. It showed the card as internal storage. Under SD card it says not inserted. OK... but the internal storage says it has 511GB of data out of 512GB. Again, it's a 400GB card. There is about 150GB or so on it... my books library and that's really it. So that's one issue.
Secondly, I understood that using it as internal storage would allow for apps to be installed on it. I understood that to be "automatic" but maybe I was wrong? As I am installing more apps I'm running into error messages telling me I do not have enough space and that I need to uninstall apps. So I fired up AppMgr III to see what's going on. I have 15 apps on the SD card, 4 apps that are shown as movable, and 65 apps that are being shown as "Phone Only". And the 4 apps that can be moved - will not move. I've tried but after 20 minutes I have just cancelled the process.
So, where did I go wrong? How do I get this SD card to truly act as internal storage - i.e., allows for apps to be installed to it? I have searched in here and on Google and am stumped. HELP PLEASE? Thank you!!
Did you ever figure this out?

Hi. No, I have not. The tablet is still telling me I don't have enough space to install anything. Yet when I go into Apps, the apps will show, for storage, xxMB / 361GB of internal storage used. So somehow it knows about the space, but something else is preventing me from using it as it should be used. HELP???

<HELP>Storage problem

Dears
My storage space is insufficient, almost reaching 62G, so I used an SD card and selected the merge storage option. After selecting, the system automatically transfers the APP to the merged SD card. The SD card stores 32G but the storage space of the phone is still about the same 62G, the phone still displays the message of insufficient space. When I open the SD card, it does show apps and photos, but when I open the APPS space, it shows NO app.
It feels that the system backs up some apps, photos, videos to the SD card instead of moving the files over.
Is this normal? What should I do to use the SD card properly?
Thank you

i recently found out with this device that it manages data so weird..
1st make a back up of your internal storage. and reset your phone with the mr3 from the site
2nd..after that finishes setup device. storage should be normal
3rd. move files from pc that you backedup and DONT COPY THE ANDROID FOLDER. THATS WHERE THE PROBLEM IS(If you dont play games or just re-download the apk feom play store.)
thats just my conclusion.
i dont use my sd card as interal.. i still don't trust that option. i dont want to lost all my files.. juat my cents
Thanks a lot, reset is a nightmare hahaha
