Alright I'm currently running cm11 4.4.1 installed via safe strap 3.65 considering my stock ROM is absorbing 2gb of my intenernal space I have very limited storage for apps. I was wondering if by purchasing a larger sd card and doing the internal/sd card swap will help me. Also which SD card is required

So if you have a 912, why did you post in the 910 forum?

 

You should have plenty of room I would think. As for an sdcard, you can swap some things out, but others dont behave well. I had good luck using a utility called DirBind. I have a SanDisk 64GB Class 10 SDcard.

 

Also let me know if you do have a 912 and I will move this over to the General section there please.

Thanks for the reply!I thought xt910 and 912,were same just the 912 has larger battery making it maxx sorry if I posted in wrong spot.... Yeah I have .93gb free on internal. Should I delete stock ROM to gain more space? I just need more space for apps n games....I remember reading about a flashable zip that would just flip flop internal and sd Sent from my XT912 using Tapatalk 2

Ok, your problem is the internal storage is getting filled. The 912 has 16GB on board, but you can only access 8gb for your data. Once you install Safestrap, it then creates partitions for you slots of whatever size you create. I found the most useful setup was, I could run 1 or 2 slots in "live" mode (as in ready to bootup) and then any others I would just keep a backup handy for restoring.

 

What I found the easiest way is to start completely over. Not what most people want to do, but thats me. First make a backup of anything and everything if you dont want to worry. You would start by flashing with Matts utility or Sam's HoM to get back to a clean JB to start. After flashing, you should do a FDR with an internal data wipe, that can be done from the Settings menu. At that point you will be as clean and fresh as can be. Then install SS and enable it. Then make a backup of your Stock rom slot. Then create your slot and flash.
