@advocatux when i install with the ub installer that removes the other roms, correct? if so the nex 4 is bumping the 16gb capacity of the phone. i would have no problem with picking up a nex 5 with 32gb if that is the case. i also have a nex6 with 64gb but it is not yet ported. thanks for your rapid reply.

@dr1445 yes but it's better to start with an updated stock rom on your phone, that way you'll have the latest firmware, and a known clean base

@advocatux ; i went into fastboot and did wipe/factory reset. i get 1% memory remaining. it looks like the nex 4 is at it's limit with 16gb. i will order a nex 5 32gb. just curious if there is anyone working on porting the nexus 5x or 6? thanks for all the sage responses.

@dr1445 the nexus 4 shouldn't be at its limit with 16GB, so something isn't right. What's the output of
df -h?There was an effort to port nexus 5x but the porters found "a lot of weird issues" (quoting their own words) and afaik nobody it's working on it now.
About nexus 6, some people started porting it to Halium (first necessary step to then port it to UT) and if you want some more details about it, see https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/30
Note that the Halium project, generally speaking, seems a bit on hold now.

by the way i was coming from the stock lineageos 15.1. should i have loaded the google factory firmware then loaded ub?
-
@dr1445 my personal opinion is that's always better to start from the latest official stock rom for your device, that way you also have the latest firmware.
BTW that's a very incomplete
df -houtput. For example this is the output of my BQ E4.5 (8GB) Note I have a 32GB sd card too.phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev 479M 4.0K 479M 1% /dev tmpfs 97M 628K 96M 1% /run /dev/mmcblk0p7 4.4G 716M 3.5G 17% /userdata /dev/mmcblk0p6 2.0G 1.7G 319M 85% / /dev/loop0 141M 139M 1.8M 99% /android/system none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /android tmpfs 481M 4.0K 481M 1% /etc/fstab tmpfs 481M 1.1M 480M 1% /var/lib/lxc/android/rootfs /dev/disk/by-path/platform-mtk-msdc.0-part5 689M 13M 677M 2% /android/cache none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs 481M 48K 481M 1% /tmp none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock none 481M 256K 481M 1% /run/shm none 100M 0 100M 0% /run/user cgmfs 100K 0 100K 0% /run/cgmanager/fs tmpfs 481M 0 481M 0% /media tmpfs 481M 0 481M 0% /var/lib/openvpn/chroot/tmp tmpfs 481M 0 481M 0% /var/lib/sudo tmpfs 97M 76K 96M 1% /run/user/32011 tmpfs 97M 0 97M 0% /run/user/0 /dev/mmcblk1 30G 18G 12G 62% /media/phablet/800A-3629 -
@advocatux i flashed the google firmware as suggested and then installed touch. no more "memory filled" messages and now apps will download from the store. i checked the nexus6 link, way over my head. the nexus 4 seems to be working well, many thanks for your time and patience.
