Jan 9, 2016 at 13:58 comment added Izzy Exactly what I've meant: Leftovers from update.
Jan 9, 2016 at 13:32 comment added Chromium Actually, I am using lollipop... The stuff in that folder seems to be something long time ago when I am using 4.1.2 JB. And the Internal Storage changed to /storage/emulated/0
Jan 9, 2016 at 13:26 comment added Izzy Wha… I'll be damned. Thanks a lot for that comment! I had thought those data lost already. Have you done an OS update recently? I've just checked with my devices, and found it on one I recently updated and thought the content of the internal SD card lost afterwards. Now I've found it, in /data/media. And remember the background: Before Kitkat, that was where the internal SD card was placed. Since Kitkat, that went to /data/media/0 (I've upgraded from 4.1.x; the change actually was with 4.2: Why did /sdcard/ turn into /sdcard/0/ with 4.2?).
Jan 9, 2016 at 4:47 comment added Chromium I finally find out who is taking my space. It is in the /data/media folder. I move them to the SD card and everything is okay. But can you tell me what is the folder for?
Jan 9, 2016 at 4:10 comment added Chromium That's no use. I don't have the /data/log folder, and tombstones only have 2~3 MB. There must be something else, because I tried to clean things in the /data folder.
Jan 8, 2016 at 9:31 comment added Izzy That "lost space" might be logs (see here) and/or tombstones (see here).
