Re: App installation section filled up
 
The "Instaled Apps" meter in your device shows the used space on your rootfs. In reality there are tons of other things than "apps" that might fill uo your rootfs... it depends.

There are lots of things you could do, you might check (by "du" for example) what's eating up the space and remove something.
Or you could repartition your device, as it is fairly silly anyway that a 64G device is partitioned as 4+2+58, I'd suggest something like 8+8+48 for example :D

You can also install ncdu or filesplus, which has the funcionality to list folders by size. Or folderpie. Note that Ncdu is a terminal app.

I had more than 5 pages of icons of installed apps at my homescreen, no games though, and / partition was just below 2GB. So i decided to repartition as 2GB root, 2GB user and ~10GB MyDocs. Works for me, but don't follow me on this. I used gparted on linux, on ubiboot maintenance mode.
