I use 1 TAP cleaner to wipe out cache , but since last few days i see that much more "device memory" has been used by what i don't know !!
I uninstalled many less-used apps from the task manager yet the "free-memory" shown is not as much as it should be on the device !!
I also move many apps to SD using app2sd but still the device memory has not been freed as per my expectation !!
Am i missing something , help me out guys because out of the 1.97 GB available i have hardly 0.94 GB left as free memory on device !!
Just counted roughly & the downloaded apps account for about 150 MB , that's all !!
Am i missing a trick here ???
Try wiping dalvik cache in recovery. That takes up quite a bit of space in the data partition. Wiping it will rebuild it again and clear out some leftover bits from old apps (I suppose)

It's your app data that's probably hogging up all your storage. Try installing Storage Analyser and use that to find out what's taking up too much storage. I'm pretty sure Storage Analyzer can be installed on your sd.
Just downloaded storage analyzer but it only analyzes the SD !! Secondly my device is "not rooted" , is there still a way or is there an app available which shows "phone memory" analysis & a way to remove unnecessary cache ??
Can you give your device into first ?

What is wrong with having 0.94Gb left?
Take a look at that:

Have you rooted your phone or not ??
I'm in trouble with Xperia Sola's internal memory. I have encountered with "partition is too small" error while trying to flash xperiasspeed rom when I entered erase cache command. Then I flashed the rom but the phone always starts from the beginning as I flashed if I reboot it. Also it says available memory is 0. What is the problem and how can I resolve it?
I had this problem. Note that your phone mem is gone. Do factory reset frim the menu of phone itself.

My internal memory has only 2 - 10 MB free but STILL my "telephone" memory is free by 500 MB or so, still when trying to install/update a new app this stpd message comes... ?
Tried moving the smallest apps from internal to telephone memory, but NOT working due to small memory??? Wtf? Xperia U trying to fool me... -.- :crying:
Pls help!
/data partition is not same as /sdcard partition.
Okay, and how exactly shall knowing that help me?
/Data is where apps are installed. /Sdcard is media partition.
So if youre trying to install apps it doesn't matter how much internal memory you have

But you CAN move apps to /sdcard, RIGHT ?

Yes.
Clear cache, it usually clears space.

Hello guys,
Problem is that the device showed that it is unable to download or update new apps from Play because it does not have enough storage.
1. Device storage - 280 MB free
2. USB storage - 10 GB free
3. SD card - 11 GB free.
I used APP2SD and moved all apps that I can, but it did not really help.
My question is:
How can I extend the "Device storage" space? Which has total of 1.97 GB only....
My device is:
GT-19100T
4.1.2
Kernel
3.0.31-1211311
I think it is stocked carrier rom and unrooted.
somebody knows?
R u rooted ?
U can delete odex files from data/app
U can clean all cache aps
Very good cleaning apk is sdmaid .
If u change setings in sdmaid it will clean odex for u

I am not rooted - But I can be if neccessary.
I made a full reset from device settings, then made wipe from the stock Recovery.
Before reset all device content, I tried cleaning apps cache and use the APP2SD... I didn't try the sdmaid.
So what the size of these Odex files?
And what about extending the partition from 1.97 GB to bigger than that? Is there any SAFE option to make that? I want to avoid getting this error again.
I saw some threads about people that also stucked with error about "not enough storage" even though they had EMPTY sd card, and lots of space in USB device memory...... But no good solution yet.
Thanks!!!
That wot i knw extending colud cause problems its no worthit try to clean ur media cache and the rest rubish use sdmaid to clean ur phone . am use it all the time and never had anny issue with not enough storage

Hey guys,
so the S2 of a friend of mine has an issue where it tells you that you don't have enough space to install new apps. The Phone is running CM10.2 Stable and I already tried a factory reset. The thing is that she has almost 10GBs free in the internal storage and about 1GB on her (2GB)SD-Card, in the settings under "storage" it says that both were full, even though they clearly have enough free space.
Can you tell me how I can resolve this issue?
Thanks for your time and help in advance.

There is also an internal storage for apps, it's normally 2GB (the first one in settings - storage). Have you tried moving apps to the sdcard?
Reformating the storages? (backup!)
Or use a PIT file to increase the 2GB internal storage for apps.
Okay I didn't see that, apparently there really are 2 partitions labled "internal storage" the one has 12GB and the other one 2GB as you said, App2SD can only move some Apps, but somehow there's something taking up over 1GB of Storage that isn't labled anywhere, what could that be?
Try clearing your logs to free up space

1GB of the 2GB internal storage?
Make a screenshot of your storagespace and post it here.
Here's the screenshot:
It's showing that only about 420MB are used, that means that about 1.4GB are not showing up there and they are used by something else

Strange.
/data is the location. Look in /data/log maybe that's full with logs or something.
Nope, nothing. I tried an app that deletes thumbnails, cache, temporary files and stuff but that just freed a couple of megabytes :/ What else could it be?

Did your friend experienced this problem after he/she flashed this rom or recently flashed cm 10.2?
If so, did your friend got through all the necessary steps?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
I flashed it for her, I installed the latest CWM, I wiped /data and /cache and the dalvik cache and then I flashed the latest CM10.2 and gapps at the time. I did that because it was showing this error previously but reflashing CM didn't fix it and that's why I ask here.

Try these steps, backup because everything will be lost.
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Format /system
Format /data
Flash rom
Flash gapps

I tried that today but it's still showing me the error.
Could I somehow repartition everything so that I merge the 2GB and the 12GB-Partition? And if so, how do I do it?

You said there where no logs. Anyway good to have it solved. Please add [SOLVED] to the thread title.

Sometimes logs are good but the space if you forgot to turn the log command off is just a pain in the ass. I had once a 6gb log file

I've had issues with this in the past.
One solution that works: if you have 'lucky patcher' installed, open it, (you'll see a pop-up detailing a cache or something clean), now close the app.
All should be good now.
2nd solution, use 'SD Maid', loads of options and works for me.
Good luck.

One would never suggest using cracked apps, though I merely offer a helpful option if one has done.
