[Q] Problem with Incoming Texts - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have looked around the threads for possible solutions and have come up with none. I am currently using Telus Fascinate Galaxy S and currently running the stable CM7 with the Glitch kernel. I'm having troubles recieving text messages; it keeps telling me that there is full memory. The problem is that i have over 12GB of space on my sd card and it says 0.00B of space on the internal storage. I just flashed it and my internet works fine. Every other thread has found the solution in moving apps to the sd card but the difference with me is that I have no apps downloaded yet.. is there a known fix to this?

I had the same problem, did u flash the latest nightly by chance?? #181..
I don't know a fix persay, but if you free up some space in the /datadata, also found in /data/data, partition it will let your msgs come through.

Thanks for the reply, once a flashed the nightly 181 i got my text messages working again, however, any downloads i try to make still send the "free up some space and try again". i cleared all the cache's, moved everything i could to my sd card (which still has plenty of space) and i changed all my settings to install external and unchecked internal storage, if i try download anything from the internet or from the market, nothing works

I have now tried both MIUI and CM7 on my phone, both of them state that there is no internal memory (0.00B). Would there be a problem with the Glitch V13 kernal i'm using or is there a step in the flashing process i missed?

I'm running MIUI/glitch without the above issue. What was your install process?

I got most things working now, what modem are you running though?

[Q] can't move apps to sd card

juts updated to tazz v28 and cannot move any apps to the sd card - any ideas?
Did you enable app moving in the CM settings? I don't have a CM ROM flashed currently (back to xtrSENSE) so I can't tell you exactly where but I think it's one of the first menus in the CM settings.
yes, i have that selected, and it doesn't matter which app i try to move, even w/ app2sd. when i touch the "move to sd card" button, i get the "failed to move application" error message. any help is greatly appreciated. thank you.
You can always do it again, wipe data+dalvik 3x, reflash. Make sure you do a nand backup before you do any flashing !!!!!
You can also go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733897 Scroll down to post #2 (FAQ)
-This is due to your sdcard being partitioned more than likely. You can either format the entire card on a pc to fat32 or use recovery to unpartition. FROYO won't recognize the ext partitions on your card. App2Sd on FROYO stores all the apps in the same partition as everything else, just in a separate folder that it creates on its own. ***CAUTION***
(YOU WILL LOOSE ANY DATA ON CARD AS IT WILL BE FORMATED SO BACK UP YOUR CARD FIRST!)
-Boot to recovery.
-partition sdcard.
-0 swap
-0 ext2 for apps2sd.
-this will make one whole fat32 partition.
Resolved or no ?????
i've done everything listed w/ no change. the only thing i haven't done is start over and i was hoping to avoid that. everything else is working well, just running out of space. any other suggestions or thoughts? thank you - it is appreciated.

Sadly I think that starting over is about your only choice, if nothing else has fixed it. You could also always buy a new sd card and use that new one, then one by one start copying files onto the new card from your old one. Check the space available every time you copy a file over to see if it is 1 file causing this problem. Not really sure what else to do about it but what I posted should help. Try that out and let me know what happens.
does the platform make a difference? i'm running cyanogen mod tazz froyo 2.2.1 build, v28 on an htc eris phone w/ a 16gb sd card.

What exactly do you mean? Make a difference to what? Your Apps2SD problem or starting over?
No to either one, in this case.
i meant my app2sd card issue. didn't know if anyone else had this build on this phone and was experiencing a similar problem.
Hi,
I am having the same issue with this ROM, Apps move to SD is failing. I just posted a comment in tazz froyo 2.2.1 build, v28 forum. anyone else having this problem ???
I am having this same problem on my dInc after flashing Kingdom Gengersense 3.0, I have yet to try and reformat my sd card. Hoping that will work
Just formatted the card and did not work. Still won't let me move my apps to SD

It won't let you move any? Some apps don't officially support being moved, but you can force move everything (except you'll not want to move keyboards and widgets because then they won't operate correctly) with Titanium Backup or some other apps out there.
Its Super user is bugged for gingerbread since the update im trying to find the fix

[Q] Ringtone/Alert/notification storage

I recently upgrade to the latest 4.1.83 and am using gingerblur 3.1
When I first got my phone I found that every time the phone re-booted it would forget custom alert/notification/ringtones. I fixed it once but I dont remember how and my internal memory was deleted by gingerbreak(not complaining, just explaining why its deleted).
It seems like the internal SD memory is not loading in time for the apps to find the sounds they need and so are listing them as unknown.
Is there somewhere else I can move them to (internal phone) where they will not be forgotten. It seems like before I was able to copy them in with the other ringtones.
I am still new at this and tried searching the forums but didnt find anything really helpful.

[Q] Insufficient Storage Available

I just recently rooted my GN2 for Verizon and everything has been working great, except that I keep getting this error with almost every app I try to install. I used titanium backup to move the files over to the sd card and I even changed the android default app install to the sd card as well. Is there something I'm missing? Are we bound to a small ROM partition or something? I'm shocked that I'm still showing almost 10 gigs of internal storage free yet I can't install a 10 meg app.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks!!
Ended up clearing the cache and wiping all the data. That seemed to have worked. Hopefully the issue doesn't come back. Any clue what the root cause of this may be? I've seen countless threads on it and every single one seems to resolve it differently.

[Q] "Storage" (under Settings) crashes when trying to access

So, this occurred BEFORE I upgraded to the new AOKP.
I was using AOKP 4.1.2 before upgrading to 4.2. I had some issues with lost space (the internal SD card, both under Settings->Storage and when plugged into a computer, was reporting that I was using more space than I really was because of a few bum files that failed to transfer properly), so I went into Settings -> Storage and wiped the internal SD card which solved my space issue and everything was working great (it was also a bit faster since I cleaned up all the touchwiz remnants). I just wanted to point out that I had wiped the internal SD card previously with success and no problems.
Before upgrading to AOKP 4.2, I followed the suggestions for upgrading and went to do a backup of the current ROM using CWM. It rebooted into recovery, and then it failed to make a complete backup saying it failed to access some \data folder or something. I then rebooted the phone so I could copy over the AOKP/Gapps zips, and just decided to flash without any backups present. However, before doing this, I wanted to wipe the SDcard of the CWM backup remnants. Upon doing this, all Gapps/Gprocesses were constantly crashing (as if I wiped some necessary data off the SDcard). I rebooted, and all was fine, except now accessing "Storage" under "Settings" was crashing Settings when attempting to access. So to be clear it was crashing before flashing.
I figured a flash of AOKP 4.2 would fix things, but it still crashes. To be perfectly clear, the flashing of AOKP 4.2 and GApps was successful, but it seems something has been altered on the SDcard that is making Settings crash when I access Storage.
I can access the internal SDcard in Windows. I can access the internal SDcard in ES File Manager. I can copy, delete, and do everything as if all is normal. Just, whenever I try to access "Storage" under settings it instantly crashes Settings saying it has unexpectedly crashed.
Side note: I tried to get an aLogCat log to copy here, but when I open the app the history is empty even though it is logging live. I get the standard alert on the screen saying that it is attempting to read the stored logs when I open the app, but nothing appears.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
FWIW, I had the exact same issue. Between that and the lack of TouchWiz contacts (swipe left to SMS, right to call), I went back to Shostock and its battery drain.

Well, I was not experiencing the issue until I wiped the SD card.

Oh, mine did it even though I didn't wipe the SD card. I wonder if it's a bug with the JB 4.2 build of AOKP...?

Well I was having the issue with 4.1.2 as well after wiping the card. So something seems to be missing on the card that lets that storage "app" (per se) in the settings read the internal sdcard properly.
In AOKP 4.2.1 it's a known issue that settings-storage crashes. For everyone.

Ah ok. Thanks for letting me know. A bit of a relief - I figured I broke something.

[Q] help no space

Two days ago I went to flash a rom to test it out and as soon as it booted I was faced with the out of storage error message. Now every time I flash any ROM I'm facing the same thing. BTW I always do every type of wipe recommended b4 anything even system format. Any help here I will be very thankful. Never had this problem before and just in case its the metropcs p769.
Also it won't let me install anything from both play store or SD not even when removing some system apps.

I got this message sometime ago. It's because disable sdcard or swap internal/external memory. Even as your phone memory is available but if your external sdcard is almost full, you will get that warning message and cannot install any app.

So, it's not the same problem I got. Did you try to delete unused files in internal memory /data/media?

I did delete that folder, but i believe it was another folder containing a bunch of data that i think was the culprit. Message went away, so i belive is fixed as i was able to continue normally. thx for the help. If anything surfaces again i'll keep you posted.
