Hello all,
I've been lurking here for a while, and recently went ahead and rooted my Vibrant.
I even more recently put on the big boy pants and flashed a custom rom. I was one of the lucky chosen that had kb5 2.2 froyo from Kies Mini on my phone, stock, so I had to go play with CWM Recovery settings and stuff.
I managed to get it working and flashed Bionix-V 1.3.1 and that went just fine. However, I pulled a blonde moment and forgot to update Titanium Backup (the free version) and tried restoring all three Angry Birds Apps+data.
I forgot the exact steps I followed following that, however, after updating TB, I was able to get Rio working, but now I keep getting the message "Angry Birds could not be installed. Free up some space and try again."
I think somehow the system thinks I've already installed it and is now borked.
Ooo... I think I recalled the steps I followed now. I had clicked manage applications and was able to uninstall Rio and then I updated TB, but didn't do the other two. I can't install them from the Market, it just fails.
Is there something I can do to fix it, and restore my angry birds? I know it sounds a touch pathetic, but I am an addict...
Thanks for any help!
Under Setting>SD Card and Phone Storage, how much space does it say under Application storage?
If it says 0.00 then you will need to Odin back to stock using "Eugene's Froyo that doesn't brick" to set your partitions back up correctly. Just do a seach and you'll find it. Then, s15274n has a great guide to Odin back using Eugene's file HERE.
<quote> Under Setting>SD Card and Phone Storage, how much space does it say under Application storage? </quote>
Looking at it right now, and it says 1.63 gb available space.
Do you have App 2 SD installed? You can move your apps to your SD card to free up space.
If you already have done this, then try moving the Angry Birds apps back to the phone storage and try to download again. Sometimes it won't load or update Angry birds if it has been moved to the SD card. Then after you can put them back on the SD card.
do u have angry birds from amazon or android market? because if its amazon the apps can be very finicky from wht ive dealt with.
Hi everyone
I was wondering what is happening with apps when you are installing them from the market. where they are downloaded to. is it some kind of temporary folder or what?
I have a Coby 7022(root) and when i try to download bigger app then 30mb, I get a error. the android is downloading ( you can see the progress) it but after a while it it says not enough memory to download.
Thank you
It would seem that you may need to free up some space on your memory card, you can free alot up by clearing your browser history and cache.
there was a market bug that when you tryed to download a app around that size it would give you that error message it happened to me even though i had over 3GB free internal storage but when the market updated that was fixed for me

That's more of a market problem. Play store is not recognizing the free space for this app. It happened to me a few times on my SGS1. Do you have an SD card? Try switching to installing apps to that. And then switch it back to your ext SD later.
i didnt download it from play store, i downloaded it trough laptop,copied the file to my sgs3,and tried to install,but nothing works yes i have a ext sd,but how do i change it? i 'm not able to find the place where you can switch the install dir for your apps?
Try do download it from playstore instead.
I rooted my phone yesterday and installed foldermount so i can store large games on SD card. It's working fine with apps less than 500mb because i only have 500mb available in SD card. First I have to download the big games into internal, then move them to Sd card using foldermount to free up space in internal memory.
However, i cannot do so with very large games like Asphalt 8 because i don't have 1.5 gb free space in the first place. Please give me some advice.
Download asphalt 8 data,apk from sites like http://onhax.net/asphalt-8-airborne-apk or something else(you can get many sites by searching in google)
then proceed same way you did before..

In my opinion Link2SD is the best app to solve the problem of low internal memory, it works great for me. Take a high speed class SD card and create two partitions (FAT32 and EXT4) using Minitool Partition WIzard or Gparted if you use Linux. And then download and install Link2SD from PlayStore. Run the app and link everything to SDCARD (ext4 partition). I advice you to buy the plus version because it allows to link the internal data too, so more free memory.
About the installation of large games like Asphalt. Well, Link2Sd allows to link the game (or any app) automatically on SdCard once you finished to install it from PlayStore. Just go on the settings and select "auto link".
There's a good video on youtube on how to use the app. Just search: "How to use link2sd to move apps to 2nd partition(SD card)"
Of course other videos are great too, but this is one of the best imho

Thanks for the reply. Thing is, i can't install asphalt 8 from play store in the first place because it needs 1.4 Gb and i only have 500mb free internal memory. I need a way to download it directly to the linked folder in SD card.
I also tried downloading apk and obb, but still I have to first copy the large obb in internal memory, then link it to SD card, which is not possible due to low internal memory.
Install xposed and xinternalSD, he download data/obb automatically to the sd, and use Link2SD to link all applications. I use these methods, and I have 1.37 GB free memory. but I have apps 2,8GB.
I made a video teaching how to configure xinternalsd in kitkat, but is the same configuration in Lollipop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ-SeWG3dVQ

Oh you mean in the first moment, now I understand. Sorry, my mistake
Btw you're right, because at this point it's even impossible to download the game from PlayStore. Well, I think the only way is to remove all the bloatwares and apps you don't use. And through Link2SD link all the installed apps you can to SD. Once you have more free space and you reached about 1.5gb try to install the game (and link it to sd). You can also consider to try a custom rom if you are not using it, generally speaking it has more free space than stock rom.

It sounds great, I've never tried the xposed solution. Good to know, I'll consider it if I'll need. Thank you very much, and thanks for the video too

I just recently rooted my device and i am very inexperienced with these stuff. I'm not sure I'm ready to mess with custom recovery and Xposed modules right now, but it sure seems like it's the solution i need. Anyway, I'll try to search for easier alternatives, but if i can't, I'll have to use this one.

Ok, I installed link2sd, partitioned my SD card and sent ALL my downloaded apps to the partition in SD card. I now have 1.3 GB free in my internal, but to download asphalt 8, I need 1.6 GB free.
I know that i can also remove pre-installed apps, but i'm not sure about it. Please tell me if it's safe to move/remove the following apps:
-Hangouts
-Google Play Newsstand
-Google Play movies and TV
-Motorola Assist
-Motorola Alert
-Motorola Migrate
-Google Play Music

Yes you can, I removed all of them.
To uninstall you can also use "system app remover", download it from Play Store

I uninstalled some pre-installed apps, still I didn't have enough space. So, i dug around the internet some more and finally found the solution!
You can actually use foldermount to install large obb files DIRECTLY INTO SD CARD instead of just moving them from internal to SD card. Link2SD only allows us to move from internal to SD, but foldermount did the trick!
However, Link2SD allows me to transfer Apk, Dex, Lib and internal files as well, so I guess I'm keeping them both! Thanks again for recommending Link2Sd for me.
I haven't tested with Asphalt 8 yet, but it works with NFS Most Wanted, wich is over 2GB in size.

You're welcome
Yeah FolderMount is good too. It depends on what we have to do. I'm currently using Link2sd because it works great for me but other solutions (like the one proposed by brundark) are always welcome. By the way I'm glad you solved the issue
For asphalt 8 download the game from pc or on ur friends or family member's phone..who have more inbuilt memory..then transfer the obb & apk to ur sd card..n install apk n place the obb accordingly. will work like charm.
n regarding how to run obb files from sd card..just download "obb to sd " from xposed.. app in KB size.. so u dont have to install folder mouny n do evetything manually..this module does everything on its own.. i play big Gameloft n EA games easily.

Thanks for the help, but I'm sticking with foldermount now, since size isn't my biggest issue. I'm also new to these stuff, so I'll save Xposed for later. I don't really feel like trying everything at once, and theres so many things to try out there!(I haven't even flashed a custom rom yet)
Hello everybody,
I have a dumb question about downloading apps and games to directly SD card.
Because phone have 2 gb memory and can't install apps or games due to less memory. So I got the SanDisk 32 gb SD card. Still have same problem and can't find the solution to download directly Google Play apps to SD.
For your info, I haven't rooted my phone yet and software version is 4.4.4.
What can I do to fix? Thanks in advance.
Nothing you can do to fix it. The sdcard integration was not introduced untill android 6.0 and even then it doesn't work completely right.
So, what shall i do for downloading apps? I moved all apps what i can move to the sd memory. Still cant download apps due to less memory.

There is nothing you can do except uninstall some apps. Even moving the apps to the sdcard doesn't move the app data which takes up the most rom.
To be honest the next time you get a device make sure it has at least 32gb of storage.
Thank you so much for the fast replies.
