hi there, i using a samsung I9300,
just somethin on my phone is keep frustrating me.
I am installing asphalt 8 to my phone, but it keep prompting me that my phone memory is not enough. But i still have 5.4gb of memory at my phone?
I have search guides on how to solve this.but unfortunately did not help I have also installed clean master that does not help.
anyone got any idea???
My phone is rooted, with directory bind installed also.

That 5.4GB is your storage, not the space that's available for apps.
Go to settings-->Applications and see at the bottom how much space you got left for apps.

How many apps do you have? There's a few gigs reserved for apps, isn't there?
Try clearing the Market's data in the manage apps menu, and try again. If that doesn't work, uninstall the apps you don't use!

How the hell did you fill up 2gb worth of app storage already? Damn
Impressive that you filled it up already. I think I have 70 apps and I still have 1.35gb left.

Unless specified other in the phone storage options :
Your pictures should go to the /sdcard/dcim
Your micro SD card files are located in the folder: /sdcard/ext_sd/

I found a solution and made a thread here. I haven't tested it on our device yet but I believe it should work.
It looks promising though and it does address these issues.
You can go into settings>apps, and move some of the apps (internal storage), to phone storage (sd1 10gb). Basically I have around 12 GB to work with if I move stuff around.

Please help with storage problems

Hey guys,
I'm having a weird thing happen with my internal storage on my phone.
I'm using stock XWLP7 firmware.
When I try and install an app it says I haven't got enough space, it tells me to delete 1.6gb (I'm trying to install a large Gameloft game)
Sure enough I look in settings-storage and I only have around 700mb available, but I should have ALOT more...... Where has it all gone?
I'm totally stumped and would be very great full for some help.
Here's a screen shot to explain my issue.
If I deduct the used memory from my total 11.49gb I should have 9.8gb spare! It tells me I only have 745mb available, does anyone know where it's gone? lol
Or why this happens?
Thank you guys!

Your screenshot is not displaying.
However you can move some big apps to SD
Thank you for your reply Jokesy!
I'm aware I can move apps to SD, but I would like to find out why my storage is all messed up.......
It just doesn't make any sense....
If anyone knows how to fix it and maybe get back my 9gb of storage I will be very greatful

Get app called sd maid and go through each section clearing stuff.
If you got cwm, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot.
Thats all i can offer, it may work!?
IRONY = XDA app, buggy and doesn't work properly!
Mod Edit - do not advocate warez
Thank you for your advice
I already have pro version if SD maid and regularly go through each section deleting stuff.
I also regularly wipe cache and dalvik cache. Probably do them both almost every other day!
Fix permissions whenever I install an app and I also zipalign all my apps.
So I don't really know what's going on..... It's really puzzling me.

The free storage displayed by the system usually only reflects the sdcards partition status, while the low space warning is probably talking about your /data/ partition.

[Q] can´t install and update apps

Hello i´m from germany so my english isn´t so good and i hope you understand my problem. Since a few days i can´t update apps because i become a error report which says no more space but i have 2 GB internal memory free?. 2 or 3 days later i can´t install new apps too. I have the stock rom 4.2.2 with root, TWRP and Hacker Kernel. I hope you can help me.. I also tried to install a custom rom but i don´t find a rom that is better then stock and at custom rom my wifi can´t be enabled.
Help...
Nobody have an idea?
Google Play is only supposed to prevent you from downloading apps when you have 200MB of internal storage or fewer. However, I've seen this same problem at other random numbers like 400MB. Unfortunately, I've never seen the problem as high as 1.4 GB.
Although you aren't supposed to have this problem, you can definitely try freeing up space and seeing if the problem persists. If you have 3GB of free internal space and you still cannot download apps, there is a problem with Play. If the problem goes away, I would recommend buying an SD card where you can keep most of your data, and you will still be able to update your apps.

I have already a sd card with 64 gb and at the galaxy s4 you cant move apps to sd. I use folder mount for the data of big games and my navi. I already tried to unistall apps. Time by time a app will install or update and i dont know why..

In your screenshot, it looks like 4.7GB is being taken up by media. If that is your internal SD, try moving the media to your 64GB SD. See if updates work then.

The only way to solve the problem you are having would be to isolate it. If you clear up some memory and apps start updating, you know that your phone has a limit of 2GB. In that case, always keep over 2GB free and try to move more data to SD. (I still don't understand how Whatsapp takes so much memory) If apps don't update after you clear the space, you know that Google Play isn't working the way its supposed to, and should probably contact support on their end.
Sorry I wasn't of too much help for you. Good luck!

Use link2sd, setup correctly it gives you virtually unlimited app space.

[Q] Not enough space

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?

no i do not have any backups and the nadroid is on my sd allready.
I do not have a clue what is taking up my space while in storage it says that there is room enough.
Nevermind. Not sure why it is doing that.
