Hi all,
Hope your well.
Im having the same issue too when trying to install apps. Exactly the same message. just over 6GB available in storage.
Im trying to install friendcaster no luck.
Tried to install you tube too, no luck. I have checked data/apps and I have no Odex files in there. Also, I have not installed friendcaster before on this phone therefore there will not likely to be any odex files for that app.
I am on Omega Rom, which is deodexed.
Btw, where is internal storage gone? only see SD storage and ExSd storage.
Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks guys

Having odex files is the issue that comes to mind but if you have checked it and there isn't any related to friendcaster then u should try wiping cache n dalvik to see if that works.

Salaam bro.
Thanks for your response.
This may sound silly but I was trying to think back a few days ago if I had made any system like changes to my phone. I then remembered that in one of the settings menu in Rom Toolbox, there is an option to choose where to install apps. Auto,internal or SD card. I changed it from Auto to SD,thinking (logically) it would save internal storage. It turns out (so far)that this was the issue. I changed it back to auto and then I was able to install the app. Wierd I know. Im confused. I hant tried to install anymore apps yet so not sure if this is sorted for good but will keep an eye out.
Once again thank you for taking time out to respond.
Btw, all the best for Ramadhan!! (next month!!)

U shouldn't need to install apps to external as u have a lot of memory this time around n u can also use a lot of software to move game data to external sd and run them from there by Binding the directories. Anyways best of luck to you to buddy for Ramadan. Do remember me in your prayers. Tc. Fe Aman Allah

If you use that naughty luckypatcher program it can cause the out of space message as well when you try to install some programs.

yes but how do i install the mods just download the zip file and flash through cwm?
i have a fantastic answer for you...
if you flash a new custom rom and then you want to restore all the settings from the old one, you can go in Cwm mode > Backup and restore > Advanced restore > restore DATA...
in this way you restore only the app and the configuration of system...
i hope i help you!
so the app and the configuration from the old rom will be in the new rom ..??? .. wow! thank you for your answer!

Exercise caution doing this
Always make one before flashing.
Remember that full backups take a lot of space. Download titanium backup and backup user apps and their data, delete them and then make a nandroid backup. Takes less space and its a lot faster.
I curently have 2 backups. My stock ROM and a curently used custom ROM. Once my custom ROM is updated I delete the backup of the custom ROM, I update it, then make another Nandroid backup with the updated version that way it saves me a lot of space.

Use this with caution.
Its better to set you phone manually than to brick it due to lack of time, or doing it manually.
Stick with the basics, basics dont get your phone bricked. Trust me

I have restored data with no problem using Data only Nandroid backups for years .
But i always only restore data to a same build rom that is no restore of ICS to JB and no restore of KLP to JB .
On PC original factory rom + Nandroid copy of last known full working custom rom .
Worked on custom roms are backed up to ext sd card .
Worst problem i ever have is usually if i wipe something without thinking clear Nandroid backups and forget to update . Even then its only a stock rom Odin flash to start again .

In TiBu (Titanium Backup) just back up user apss (like facebook,twitter,games,apps downloaded through GooglePlay Store)
Run a batch backing up user apps and then from System>Apps uninstal all of them but TiBu. Just like that once you've returned from making the backup, open TiBu and select backups/restore tab in the top section again and press the menu/options softkey. Select Batch and then Restore all missing user apps.
No need to make a .zip file, not flashable through recovery.

I wish to update android. Can I do this safely if I just (un)rooted my device? Whatever the terminology is. (i just did it so I have superuser etc. im a complete mobile phone noob)
What is the most easy way to make an complete backup of the entire phone?
As in apps- settings-internal firmware etc. I wish to make a complete backup.
What would be the easiest way to aquire apps?
I found 4shared and blackmart but they are not as good as the playstore, as in searching, for with this you need to know already what you are searching.
Well you can use playstore and then search in 4shared. But I was thinking maybe there is a more complete solution.
Also I noticed in some of these apps, certain apps don't seem to be present.
So what is the most complete solution to apps? Prefered if they have like short describ, popularity, pictures.
Thanks in advance.

Eh, of course you can update... The method depends on what you're going to flash.
You can use Titanium Back up. Settings of your phone will be erased.
Well, just use the Play Store.
Well first of all, the playstore, only shows up to 500 downloads, and there all scramlbed, as in the 10. mil downloads apps are scrambled inbetween the 100.000 one's etc. Meaning I miss probably alot of popular downloads. Also playstore.. you need to PAY. I want a free-complete solution with the biggest library.
Titanium backup.. backups what? I want a total backup of everything.. does that do that?
Settings erased?? -.-
Ofcourse I can update, where? flash what? I see that my phone can update itself in settings, through official means is this android update?
Sorry im a total noob. I almosted messed up rooting too.

Well the play store is the largest source of Android apps and the next I guess would be the Amazon play store, and what do you mean "you need to pay"? Of course for paid apps, you will need to pay(amazon does give out free paid apps everyday though) but you can have a free version which will contain ads for most good apps.
For total backup you will have to do a nandroid backup by going into CWM(read other threads), you can also use an app called Nandroid Backup to do it for you without the need of going into CWM for restoring the backup you will have to always go into CWM though.
Edit : OTA updates can easily be done via settings and yes it will update your android.
Other faster method is flashing the firmware through a computer.

Hello mates..
This is a developer's forum and discussing sources such as "blackmart" or "4shared" is not a good idea.
If u need an app that needs payment, pay for it..
As your payment is the only thing thr developers gets.
So I strongly suggest that you stop using blackmart or whatever source u use for cracked apk's.
Just use playstore as it is a trusted and tested source for apps.

I didn't discuss using any of those, I focused on Amazon app store which is completely legal and they do give out free paid apps daily(which is also legal), and for your information 4shared is not an illegal source for download it's just being misused like that, it's actually a file sharing website where you can share your photos, documents, and other personal or open source stuff.
But Blackmart is just like the name it is a black market of android apps.

Hi mate..
I know what 4shared is..I personally had my account their but dropped it in favour of dropbox.
Now for the discussion, I didn't accused u for the disscussion.i just wanted to state the obvious that the other user used sources such as "4shared" or "blackmart" to download cracked apps.
I only wanted to have his thoughts changed mate, nothing else.
And being an iphone user too, mr know that giving paid apps free for a day is legal.
In ios, we have "appgratis" that does so..

Sorry then, I mistook your statement when it started with "mates" I thought you were including me as well, anyway all is good. cheers!!
To the OP: The Play Store is THE largest library of android applications.
Edit : Yeah we might tend to loose good apps, my suggestion... Read articles and stuff and they will point you to the interesting stuff ..
For example I am doing several amazing stuff with my phone like just now I booted up Ubuntu Desktop in my laptop using my S2, how cool is that?

made backup? it was 2.65 gb.. appearently it doesn't backup all since it's only 2.65gb.. so what is excluded from this?? Since I have used like 10 GB apart from this in apps.
Also how do you restore a backup? no such option in the program -.-
Is there also a way to validate a backup?

Yeah lol I understand.. I think you mean clockwork mod and there are further options too which you obviously didn't use, but let's get to you 2.6gb backup it contains your complete firmware, settings , and all the apps you have ever installed to the point, data in your internal and external memory cards should be completely copied to a computer or external hdd, ie you should manually backup that, restoration can be done via booting into CWM(for more info on CWM read other threads it will take too long to explain).

Yeah I now get that you have to use the backup with CWM which was installed with root, can you activate CWM like when booting phone before u get into android?
And well it may have saved the apps, but not the music because that alone is 4GB. so why doesnt it literally take everything?
So this is all I will ever need as in backup? And I just copy the 2.65 gb to my pc for safe keeping

Yes you can access cwm directly by switching your phone off, holding power button + home button +volume up button it will boot directly into CWM.
Backing up all the memory will possibly create a huge file and it ain't that practical but you can do it if you want, but normal backups won't touch any of your data (sdcard as well as ext sdcard) when restoring unless you manually perform a wipe.
You can copy your backup anywhere but you will have to copy it back to restore.

Ok im into CWM, I pressed backup but it doesn't backup everything in a huge file? I dont really care for practical when I got a 3 TB harddrive so it's not possible to include sd data? I also moved all apps to sd card, aswell as mp3's..
And Im trying to backup the phone through windows explorer.. but it seems I can't acces all files there? Because when I count the maps and filesizes, it seems like it doesn't add up, and something is hidden from me.
Also when I make backup it NEVER asks me where to store it, wether I do with CWM or with this other program I forgot name off. Through wifi directly on external hDD would be great.

Lol, you may not consider practical backup, but developers do, a normal nandroid backup is meant to hold all important rom data and and user apps data. Backup of Personal Data is always set to be done separately but you can do it with CWM by using a modified backup script and for restore you will have to use another modified restore script, quite a pain in the ass if I must say and too risky for a novice like you because if you mess up the script you can damage your nand thereby bricking your phone, All your data on both memory will be completely visible to you via windows especially if you are connecting via USB mode, In CWM you have the choice to backup into the sdcard or ext sdcard , it will be stored either in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup or /extsdcard/clockworkmod/backup, in the Online Nandroid backup app you can specify the download location with a manually defined directory structure.

Ok thank you. Well How come then the sizes dont addd up when I press ctrl + a on internal memory or SD card. And then compare free space/total size with the size of all the stuff I selected.. Seems some stuff is hidden 0_0
So are you saying you could also backup through windows explorer by just copying ALL stuff unto external HDD, and make a Nandroid backup would that be "complete'?

Pretty much, nandroid backup + backed up so data is usually pretty much complete.
Edit :There are some minor things, but that would only confuse you further, you don't need to worry about it though.

First of all, i'm really new here...
So the question is: If i flash a new rom in my device... There is any way to restore to the factory rom? (a rom backup or something like that?)
About the apps, files, etc i know how to backup it, :good: just need to know if i can do something to restore the rom if something went wrong or if i just want to go back to factory rom...

You have to use cwm recovery for taking and restoring nandroid backup or u may use titanium backup, rom toolbox etc for taking backup of individual app and app data.

You need least 3 gb of free space as the backup took almost 2.5gb of space
