Please more info. What ROM you use, what you installed and how you activated your Link2SD? Then we can find the solution to you or what you MUST do from now on.
CHEERS!
I think you using stock 2.3.3 or 2.3.4! Right? Download from Market(YOU MUST BE ROOTED TO USE IT) "Android terminal Emulator". Run it and type:

Insufficient Storage Available problem

Hi guys
First problem for a while. Had ES File Explorer installed, it wanted to update and after that it had the error message in my thread title.
Suggestions on how to sort it? Running a 32gb TP with plenty of storage left.
Thanks in advance

1.24gb left. At the moment they are on that memory not the 'sd' partition.

That's nearly twice what I have, download any app from play store or several if that goes ok . The problem is with ES which I would uninstall reboot then reinstall.
Let me know what happens.

Storage full - but with what?

Hey everyone!
I thought maybe some of you could help me with this. I'm on XXUFME3 and I have a weird problem with the internal storage. I have only 3 GB left but I don't know what fills up so much of the storage as the Storage in Settings shows in the chart I haven't used this much space.

If you've flashed ME3 coming from a 4.1.2. rom without a wipe, then all your things remain at the old 4.1.2. mount points. 4.2 has new mount points and generally a wipe is required when switching.
Hej, JJ, try to be of help for once, would you? It's better to help them with their problems and then suggest where they should post the next time. It's in the rules, but I bet you knew that.
Please read link in my signature about 4.2 and sdcard

Maybe Glebun hacked his account
It's offline cache of cloud service/dropbox

Hi guys,
I´m bumping this old thread because i have the same problem than the OP. I´ve search around for a while, but haven´t found any way to fix it.
As it happenned to the OP, my internal memory is full, but i´m not using nearly half of it.
What can i do about this?
I´m running temasek unofficial CM11 build v36. Did i full wipe before flashing it.
Thanks in advance for your time,
Walter

Go to /data/media with a root explorer you should see 3 folders:
0
legacy
obb
If there are any other folders beside the three above copy them to 0 folder leaving the three above..

Hey Tallman43, thanks for your answer.
This is how my internal memory looks like:
As you can see, inside data there is no media folder, just a bunch of app folders.
Im still a bit unclear on what to do

Look here:
Got it! I do have a whole bunch of folders. Android, apps, bluetooth, clockworkmod, DCIM, etc...
Should i just copy all of then into 0?
Just leave 0, legacy and obb ?

Unfortunately, i can´t move all the folders, as i don´t have enough space in the internal storage (the irony...) Many of the folders are duplicate btw, so i´m just trying to overwrite them.
I´ve tried two times, but at the second attempt the OS crashed and the phone got rebooted.
Any other ideas?
Thanks for your help btw, very kind of you!

The way I solved it was to backup everything to computer format internal and put back only what I needed it freed about 5gb on mine..

Did you just backed up user apps + data? I guess after formatting you had to flash the ROM again, right?
What do you think caused me this problem? Could have been because i restored system apps and data from my Titanium backup?

Yep had to reflash but it's worth it for the space it freed up Its the new folder structure on 4.3 RootSu has a thread about it that explains everything.
Alright i´m looking into the thread now, thanks for the tip!

I´m looking into this solution. Could you explain how you copied all the internal content into the PC, and what was it that you restored back?
Do you have to to any special format or create any partitions after it´s clean?
Thanks!
I have been manually deleting folders from /data/media. I actually had a lot of data from old apps, and also all my old pictures, whatsapp pics etc...
I don´t understand how this can still be in the phone after several full wipes.
Is it any better way to wipe everything from the root folder and internal memory so i can flash the new rom with a completely clean phone?
would format in cwm do the trick?

Only 2GB of space.

Hi! I've got an i717 16GB, and according to my settings, I only have 2GB of space on the total system. I plug it in, and it says I have 10GB available and 5.8GB used. What's going on? I have CWM 5.5

We still did not find the solution(re-partition tool/flashable zip/script) at all.
Still waiting for any expert's tip - android re-partition skill.
I really do want to solve this problem to keep using my current note until I upgrade to new phone.

OPPS sorry about that dead link.....
This link is working today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHsHiXDgSy4
I put the whole URL this time to copy and paste.
I use the FREE EASEUS Partition Master 9.1.0 Home Edition to partition the sd card. I find it easier to and faster to back up the contents of sd card to computer than partition. and than transfer bkup to sd card on the 1st Primary Fat32 partition.
Takes to long to transfer 4 to 6 GB back from bkup to card from pc to phone IMO.
OR
Here is a step by step .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nllIEBzuPHo I prefer the 4000MB partition for the NU storage.
Be sure to set or make BOTH the partitions "Primary" partitions or they will not work with Link2sd.
I tried Mini tool and Aparted but they might work for others, they didn't work for me.
Link2sd card is the most reliable and easy to do the linking from old tiny internal storage to the NEW enlarged external storage that I have found.
And if that app does not do it for anyone try foldermount https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATWTghTploY
OR
HERE at xda .... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39178981 Give a BIG thanks and support to madmack

So, basically your solution is based on using additional SD card not changing/modifying the phones' EMMC memory.
I think I had tried Link2SD/Folder mount earlier and not all apps supports with this method.
It is still helpful but I think we(other users) still like to change the EMMC side.
But I still want to tried your suggested method to try. Thank you!!!

Did u go in the file manager to delete it?
BTW, how much ram did ur phone had already?
If it is more than or near to 1 GB, u are wasting your time.
Virtual memories are slower than physical ones.
Ur phone will become laggy than ever before.
Don't use the ram expander.
what can i do to get more free ram
and reduce lags.?

my phone has 1.5 gb
but i get lags and stuff
John, as I read you say that you have 4 GB junk files on your SD card ?
Try to format your SD card on pc and restore default size.
You can use some SD card reader and format your SD Card if you are unable to format your SD card in phone .
Use sd maid pro or root cleaner.
DOES THIS THING WITH VIRTUAL RAM WORK OR NOPE?
because my phone is using 1gb at least and i have 500 free ram
and i get lags etc
Problem
I have the same problem which was posted on hashtag 3 please help me thank you
