I cannot install titanium backup anymore.
It says out of space. But it's not.
Even if I deinstall a lot I get the same message.
Any suggestion?
Thanks
Have you used lucky patcher? It causes that problem sometimes. There's an option in the app to remove all patches. Try it and see. If that isn't the case, make sure your internal storage is roughly above 500mb.
Edit: is it solely for titanium backup or can you not download any apps without getting that error?

Remove the .odex file of that apk you are trying to install on /data/app
This happens when you crack an application and it leaves the modified .odex file on said directory.

Oh my god... This crap has been driving me crazy for 2 days. Thank you so much for using all ur brain cells. I obviously dont/cant.

Ok gotta question for all ya geniuses here...
Can I back up apps and data from my rooted samsung infuse through tibu and then take sd card out and stick in prime and restore through tibu to mirror what I have on the ole 4g?
Sorry if this makes no sense but seems logical to me.

Yes you can but this is what I had to do to get it to work. I had to install tibu and then copy all the files and drop them in the newly created tibu folder that was installed after the app was installed. I haven't had any problems installing the ones that I have installed.

Ok great. Will try this when I get home. Maybe just plug both into my laptop simultaneously and transfer through win exp. No need to remove sd cards. Lol. Makes sense.
Thanks

I installed poweramp and then uninstalled it and now it says I have insufficient space. I can install other applications just fine. I've tried the fix for the similar titanium backup but it didn't work. I'm on tasks aokp 4.0.4

Check your data/apps folder to see if the apk is still in there even though you uninstalled.
I already tried that but I don't see anything.

i had the same problem with TiBu only. No other apps gave me that error. I ended up wiping and reflashing the rom. Its been fine since. I had no idea what caused it. I first tried to wipe data on the Play Store but that didnt fix it either.
quertyaas, you were right I found the problem. I was looking in the wrong data folder. I was using astro but found it with root explorer.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using XDA Premium App
Nyydynasty, next instead of reflashing, just look in your data folder for a TiBu related odex file and delete it.

good to know. I didnt think of doing that - lol
I was having some intermittent BT issues anyway, so a reflash wasn't completely uncalled for

Ya, for some reason when you uninstalled it the APK still remained in the data/apps folder. The app wasn't installed but since it was still in the folder, it wouldn't let you reinstall it.
Good first step to check if this happens again. Check the data/apps folder with Root Explorer (I should have mentioned that in my initial response ).

Once in a while, an app gets corrupted such that trying to access it in the apps manager crashes the apps manager - thus, it can't be uninstalled normally.
I've noticed that sometimes when this happens, the name of the app in the apps manager changes as well (from the friendly name to the internal one - like com.developername.appname).
What's the best way to uninstall a corrupted app like this? Is there a good app to handle situations like this, or is it best to do it by hand - in which case, what's the procedure?
Is it just a matter of deleting anything that seems related in /data/app, /data/app-private, and /data/data?
What kind's of app crashes? If it is a system app then sometimes a Factory Reset could solve the problem, but not for good. Are you rooted? If you are rooted you could flash a new ROM. Sometimes stock ROM's aren't always the most stable. If you are not rooted then I would try to get root. Hope this helps
Oh, we're not talking about anything catastrophic that would require flashing a new ROM. Just regular misbehaving user-installed apps.
What's the best way to deal with those?

Guess you didn't read the first post.
The point was that these were corrupted apps, and going into them from the apps manager would crash the apps manager.
If u can see the app in app manager, then first clear the data, then uninstall it. If that does work, clear the data again, power cycle the phone, then uninstall it.

My bad, I missed that . Yes, you could delete them from /data/app/ (and check if their folder still exists in /data/data/. If so, delete that too).
Or you could use Titanium Backup

When I had this happen, I could see the app in the list of apps, but as soon as I tried to go into it, that's when the app manager would crash.

I tried. It seemed to freeze Titanium Backup. Although the item dissappeared from the apps list once I force quit titanium Backup, I don't actually know if it was properly uninstalled.
In case it happens again, I just wanted to know the best way to handle it.
Hello,
I have a problem with my great mega, every time i need to update a program it says that there is not enough space left.
So i checked and there is about 600 mb left on my phone and 8,5 gb on my sd so that shouldn't be a problem.
Why is this and does anyone have a solution, thanx in advance.
Use es file Explorer to move media files like pics,videos, music, and downloads to your sd. I would leave app files where they are.

If your phone is rooted install Lucky Patcher 4.1.9 (newest version) and make sure it is updated after it is installed and whatever app has this insufficient storage not available open the program in lucky patcher add or remove a patch or uninstall a app with lucky patcher and re-install it, just tap on the name of the app in lucky patcher and you will see many options to do with that app..works pretty good as i use this for this problem.

If you have nandroid or titanium backups. .. That can eat a bunch of memory. Can move those to sd??? Just spit balling for ideas for you. I've had that happen before. Do you know what is taking up so much memory?

Nevermind. Not sure why it is doing that.

You'll need a root explorer. The apps are in /system/app and /system/priv-apps.
BUT BE CAREFUL!!! If you remove the wrong ones it won't boot.
There's a thread I think in the International forum that has apps you can remove. We'll have some different apps though.
If you remove the wrong app and end up not booting, you'll either have to use adb or LGFlashtool to fix it.
Im sure someone will have a list shortly.
"System app remover (root)" from the play store works great for me. It makes app backups before uninstall.
You might be better off using Titanium Backup to just freeze apps first, to see if they affect other things unexpectedly. Then you can remove them after a test period.

THIS!
Also if you can be patient until recoveries can be taken care of then back ups can be done to help insure a trouble free device.

Agreed, unless you only uninstall apps that are obviously safe to remove.
With 3gb of ram, just freeze apps.

freezing vs removing an app has nothing to do with ram.
For OP, if you have TiBu use that to remove apps. There's a link somewhere in the general G3 forum here that shows which apps are safe to disable, which typically means they are safe to remove as well.
What I was saying is there is plenty of space on root partition. Freezing won't delete the app, but rather prevents it from launching. IMO this is the best way to go. Less crap running, less lag, and you don't have to delete files.
This thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g3/general/guide-how-to-restore-sprint-lg-g3-ls990-t2852042
After following this procedure I have no more sprint apps on my phone.
The image provided didn't have them pre-installed.
That's another way to go about it. Safer? Probably not than freezing.
