Hey all. My phone usually sits at having 60gb free storage, and today i woke up to a notification that my storage was maxed. I saw that Other was taking up ~50gb. I cleared cache, used icleaner and diskprobe, and even unjailbreak and rejailbroke my phone, and it still is takifng up storage. Any help would be appreciated to help figure out why its taking up so much storage. Thanks

Hey @agile kelp, have a look at this!

Clearing “Other” Storage:

If you find 'Other' inside your storage is being filled up, you can reduce it significantly by installing a terminal app like NewTerm or logging in via SSH and typing: rm -rf /var/mobile/Library/Caches/com.apple.CacheDeleteAppContainerCaches.deathrow (you may need to su prior)

After that, reboot your device.

Alternatively, you can use Filza and navigate to /var/mobile/Library/Caches/ and delete the com.apple.CacheDeleteAppContainerCaches.deathrow folder. Then empty the Filza Trash.

also do sudo snaputil -l /var

#

you probably dont have a /var snapshot but just in case

#

so i had tried that earlier but i didnt have a deathrow file. I have a com.apple.cache_delete folder but no com.apple.CacheDeleteAppContainerCaches.deathrow

#

and no /var snapshots either

#

like i dont have any /var snapshots to delete. i checked with snapback
