I can't install app on my sony xperia , it say i need more space but my internal memory still have about 20gb free, can someone help me solve this
I think you are confusing 2 things.
The 20GB you are talking about can only be used for storing music, photos, ...
As far as i know, you only have about 1.5 to 1.6GB available for installing apps.
If you are running ICS, you can check this by going to settings => apps => select the 'downloaded' tab at the top. At the bottom of your screen it then says how much of the memory you have already used and how much is left.
Hope this helps.
so is there anyway i can use that 20gb to install apps and games
Yes
Move the apps to the internal storage memory(20gb one)
You can find it in settings>Apps>select the app you want to move and move it to internal storage.

Hello,
I was installing several games and apps today, and in the end i have under 200mb of free space, but on the sd card i have about 28gb free space... Is there any way to "transfer" the installed apps and games data to the sd card?
Tks
No, not until we get either root or (I believe but I may be wrong) ICS will we be able to install apps to the external SD card. You can put movies, music, pictures and whatever else you want on there so make sure you do, and save as much space as possible on the internal 16gb usb storage for apps cause you're gonna need it!
Some apps and games will let you transfer. Go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, then click on the application and select transfer to sd card if it will allow it

I think this will still leave it on ram as it won't trancfer to sdcard2 - that's what it looks like to me.
I everyone I got my Xperia s for some time now and I just noticed that most off the apps I install are stored in the phone memory rather than the internal storage also I cant move the apps as I get an an error that the app could not be moved???
I got about 20 gb internal storage left! !!
Does any one know how to fix this issue????

setting > application > manage application > look for apps that you like to move > tab the move to internal storage
if move to internal storage does not highlight, mean that the app are not meant to running on internal storage, look for other apps
Apps that can not be moved has to do with the app development not with the phone, also when using a widget of the app the app cant be moved.
You can always try app2sd of course
I have a Samsung I9100G and my App storage is 1.97GB.Something like 1.1GB is consumed by android system which is not showing and the rest is my apps but its not enough for me this phone has 13GB Total space in it and i want it all in one place my apps and my downloads - musics etc. i looked around trying to find how to do that but all i have found was to format SD Card.But thats not what i want my space is showing like this
Device Memory: 1.97GB
USB Storage: 11.00GB
it shows my space as usb storage i wanna change that to device memory so that i don't have any problems
My phone is rooted and i'm using 4.1.2
Don't tell me to open space with link2sd or something like that my apps are already on sd card and my storage is still filled up.
Have you tried the app DiskUsage from the playstore? It gives a great visual of what exactly is taking up your space. Could help you work it exactly what us consuming your space.

Yes im using it and i know whats consuming my space but thats not what i want to know o wanna make that 11GB usb storage my device memory
Well you can look into repartitioning your internal storage through an Odin flash but I STRONGLY recommend that you don't. It's one of the quickest ways to turn you i9100G into a brick.

Link2sd. The only way to get rid of that annoying "low on memory" nag when youre just updating g play, facebook, youtube or whatever "unmovable" updated system app.

Hi,
I have an unrooted Samsung Galaxy Grand I9080L (single SIM). It has 4 GB of internal memory... but it only allows me to download apps from google Play up to 1 GB of space occupied. So It remains with 3 GB of free internal storage, and google Play says no more memory space is available when I try to download a simple app.
Even more strange is the following:
I uninstalled apps to free about 40 MB of internal storage, and try to install a 1 MB app and IT SAYS NO SPACE IS AVAILABLE.
Any clues?
Thanks.

Hi, there are 2 possibilities I can think of so far, it is possible that the apps you install (most likely games, photo editors, music players, etc.), have created some files for themselves so that it can operate, therefore leading up to a lack of space. However, that wouldn't really happen if you have an external storage. I do recommend you to get one if you don't.
The second possibility is that the systems are already messed up, either doing a factory reset might help, or sending the device to a local Samsung store for service.
These possibilities might or might not help you, but the most important thing is that you should consult the authorized stores. Thank you for asking us here at the forums. If I did help you, please click the "Thanks" button below this post.
