Great guide S.Prime.

I already do exactly as you have posted, but I do wipe the data area after rooting via TWRP rather than a factory reset.

I also copy my Titanium backup to my PC rather than the cloud for speed.

Also export settings from several apps as not all settings are backed up/restored fully.

These include Nova Launcher, AndFTP and ES FILE EXPLORER.

Thanks, CBers, I have incorporated your suggestions into the guide.

Is the Storage Space issue a bug, or just a consequence of using a toolkit ??

Does anyone know ??

As I understand it, it is an occasional consequence of using the "No Wipe" feature, when loading a factory image. I have only had it happen once on my Nexus 10 and even the factory reset did not fix it, so I had to use TWRP and format the data partition to recover the entire space.

I had the issue on my Nexus 5, 7 and 10 on the 5.0 updates and I didn't use the No Wipe option.

Update on my Nexus 7 to 5.02 using No Wipe worked OK though.

At least I'm aware.
