[Q] Not enough space - Samsung Galaxy Mega

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.

Nice program but when i use it it says to low space i wonder if it has to do with low space on my rom maybe.

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.

[Q] Astro File Manager 2.5.2

I’m trying to delete a few unwanted apps as in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=826491, but their permissions are read only. Does anyone know how to change a file’s permission with Astro?
Try using titanium backup.

Not exactly the answer I was look for to resolve the problem. However, I appreciate the response, but I don't want to download another app because I already have quite a few.
For astro you are looking for something called godmode. It appears to be a script add-on of some sort. I dont use astro though when dealing with permissions, I just use root manager. I have heard that es explorer does have an experimental feature for permission handling.
Edit; root explorer not manager ;/

Titanium backup is the answer. It will remove any app you want, even system apps.
I don't understand why you would not want to have TB, it is an essential app for all rooted phones to backup your apps. But if you don't want the app you can always uninstal it after you have finished using it...
Also it does not take up much space in the memory. You can use TB to move apps onto the SD card to free up more space internally as well

[Q]Issue: during installing Apk saying out of space..

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.

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!

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] Lucky Patcher Issue.

Hi all, I'm using lucky patcher for a while now on my HTC Flyer, but since today if I try to remove ads from an app, it says: There was not enough free space to create odex file near the apk file.
But I have 2,64GB Tablet Space, 2,48GB Internal storage and 7,97GB Sdcard FREE space available..
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks in advance:angel:

Hmm.. it didn't work I still get this same message ;/
You can Try to wipe Dalvik-cache..
It's an app used to get paid software to free. XDA condemns use and spreading of warez and it's against rules to discuss it.

Its an app that CAN be used to get paid software for free. But in this case the person is simply using the apps function to block adds, something xda don't have any problems with.
Open the app and go to Toolbox > Remove fixes and backups. This will free space in /data/app to create ur new odex

[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.

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!
