My rooted S2 has about 230mb left of the original ~2gb of internal storage (plus 10gb on the internal SD card aka USB storage). Yet, when I downloaded an 12mb app today, it said I was out of internal storage. How can that be? What is the remedy for that false message - like doing something via CWM? I did notice that by rebooting, the problem went away.
Greatest op title ever))) well my friend it seems ur phone knows that you are out of storage but he is not))))

That's why they call it a smart phone and why I call it a not-smart-enough phone.
Happens sometimes, i think its play services problem so don't waste time flashing something else or formatting, just wait for a while and it gets okay

Thanks. That is good to know. Because it does seem sort of random. I'll wait it out and see what happens. If I do have to format, though, what is the best method? Factory data reset? Or something more deep down via CWM?
i had this problem for months on my phone Galaxy S2,
and i found the solution, just dial *#9900# then select the second option "Delete dumpstate/logcat"
Hope this will work for you..

If you want to thoroughly clean your phone, i would recommend GS2RomNuke by hawkerpaul, which is flashed via recovery, just search it and read the instructions, its very easy.
thanks.

Some apps are installing/updating, some still are not, like Google Hangouts.
I just tried #9900# and got this failure message: "Connection problem or invalid MMI code."
Any idea what those are and why I am seeing that? I am using NeatROM 5.5.
BTW, before installing NeatROM 5.5, I ran HawkerPaul's kernel nuke and rom nuke.
It's *#9900#, was lacking the asterisk.

My phone upon reboot usually gets stuck on a "Sorry! Process system is not responding" "Force Close" or "Wait".
Neither option works and I have to do a battery pull.
It doesn't matter what ROM I use it always happens.
Would someone be able to tell me how to get a log from bootup? And would someone be willing to look at the log for me?
Thanks guys!

I don't mean to sound like a tool by suggesting this, but, have you wiped? Wipe cache and dalvik to start off with see if that works...and if it doesn't do a full wipe and get back to us.
Again, I'm not trying to be a ****...if you are beyond this level of help, well, we're gunna need more details.
i can tell you how to get a log but i cant tell you whats wrong using the log
plug your phone into your computer, using adb type in "adb logcat" and press enter and you should see a whole bunch of text start appearing
before you flash a rom do you do factory resets and make sure to wipe your cache and dalvik cache? that could be the problem..
I have done it all, wiped dalvik, cache, and everything else. I even tried using CWM instead of twrp and the issue remains.
Thanks everyone for trying to help...

If you've done a full wipe and tried different roms then I would be inclined to believe that the issue is likely hardware.

I would use TWRP and do this:
Go into wipe menu, then Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data (factory reset). Go into advanced menu (I think) and there should be another wipe menu. Wipe /system. Then flash the ROM of your choice and it should be fixed. Wiping /system manually is the key since some ROMs don't do that (mine does, however)
Thanks ill try the advanced system wipe.

In a word, yes. Are any of these 'bargain' cards you got online by chance? If not and they are from a reputable vendor I would put them in the computer, copy data off and format them....and if that still doesn't help find a 'known good' card and go on from there. The stock card would be preferable, but, if you can't find that a 'known good' card is the next best thing. If the stock card or a 'known' good card doesn't help I'm still inclined to think it's a hardware error...but after hearing about the SDcard I'm leaning towards the phone is fine the card is screwed.

Went to a sprint store, they said its probably a hardware issue and they ordered me a new one.
Here's to hoping the new one one won't have any issues....

Hi,
I've recently upgraded from CheckROM HD 2.0 to 3.1.1 on and every thing seems to be runing great with the exception of the camera.
Whenever I open the camera I get a message pop up that says 'Not enough memory'. This occurs even straight after rebooting or even clearing the memory on the phone.
I have tried reflashing the ROM, installing the camera hack from the kitchen, wiping the cache and anything else I can think of. Anyone else have any ideas?
No such problems myself, i suggest you ask in the CheckRom thread instead of starting a new one.
Can't post in there quite yet

Says I need more posts or something.
Anyway, don't think its nessecarily CheckROM now. Flashed back to CRR HD 2.0 and I'm still getting the same error.
Think I might have to do a full wipe which I was hoping to avoid. Time to see how good Sprite Backup and Ti Backup work I guess.

because he has just 3 posts. you need ten to be allowed to post into development section.
@ thread starter: reflash, maybe with factory reset? it's always good to wipe your device when you switch to another rom.
How embarrasing...
I was just starting to run some backups before doing a full wipe and got a message from Sprite saying it didn't have enough room to store a dropbox backup. Went and cleaned up my last few CWM backups and and some old ROMs and kernels. Just before I jumped into recovery mode I hit the camera and it works fine now. Seems to be that I had run out of space on my internal SD card.
Oh well, problem fixed. Flashing back to 3.1.1 now.
Thanks for the help anyways

Go to Settings / Storage and make sure SD is mounted.
Your post makes absolutly no sense.
Well I bought it off someone. The problem is. storage I can't mount internal sd. If I try to open external sd it doesn't pick up. When I try to open camera message says I need to mount sd. I tried doing that in setting but nothing happens. I thought if there is way to reflash it I could mount it.

if it still does'nt work for ya..
you gotta do the factory reset.. it wont affect your intrenel data.. and if you got important apps, try backing up( if rooted, titanium or if you are not rooted.. there are some backup apps for non rooted but they wont manage torbackup data)
I have done all the things in this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632730
Everything "seemed" fine until I tried using WiFi, I actually have to hit the wifi button and then restart my phone for the wifi to actually work, weird...
Besides that, the phone has just been restarting itself and it's happening more and more. And lately, it's wicked slow with just about everything I try to do... its just super glitchy. So I thought that maybe starting from scratch would be the best way to make things right, and then re-root...
But doing this caused many questions while reading through the forum and I'm hoping that someone can help point me in the right direction...
I guess the most important questions are:
Do I wipe the phone and do a clean install, going back to stock first?
If so, because I have followed the instructions in the link above, what are the exact steps so that I don't brick it?
Should I just buy a new phone?
If I did a clean install and then re-root will it run better than it is now?
I have many more questions but I think answering these first will help out a lot...
Thanks to whoever can help me out...

Edit: I installed the new Dodol Launcher and miraculously my WiFi is working again! So I uninstalled the Nova Launcher... I am happy that I can toggle my wifi settings once again =) But I read something extremely upsetting about 2mins ago in regards to the people with unlimited data which I have, and that is, we cannot use third party apps to tether the hotspot if we did the 4.3 update!!!??? Does anyone know if this is true? I thought that I couldn't tether because my phone is somehow screwed up, not because they blocked me from using it...

Thanks lacoursiere18!
After I get back to ramc3 and reunlock do you know how can I stop the OTA from popping up and trying to get me to install it? I want to be able to tether a mobile hotspot, so I need to stay on this one (because of the unlimited data), I think...?
On another note (no pun intended), I was starting the backup process and noticed that the phone has 10.3GB of internal storage, but when I add up all the folders it only amounts to 2.24GB! Does that mean that the OS is taking up 8GB!??? It just seems like a bit much and I can't see anything, there were no hidden folders or system files that I could find either... weird...

It has to be the something to do with the format of the memory card and the ROM. My twrp recovery reads that all of my stuff is still there. It's just the version of the ROM that doesn't. Any ideas?
