My friends,
I have a weird problem with installing some apps and I have tried so hard to fix this, but nothing have worked. This is not a problem with dalvik cache or some other cache, I have enough space in every partition, reflashing from start (with wiping and everything) did not resolve my problem.
The best thing is that I have installed some apps that are over 50mb, but e.g. Readability with is ~7mb cannot be installed, even though I have apps that have exactly same size.
What can it be? What can prevent me from installing some apps, even I have fresh ROM, full space and cleared every cache? I am using latest MIUI v5 ROM - Android 4.1.2 (before flashing it I had older version, which did not work too). I do not think it is because of ROM, it must be something else.
Have anyone had this problem? Please help me, my friends.

I tried CM7 months ago and liked it but I couldnt use it because of the appdata issue. Did they fix this yet?
What was the appdata issue exactly? I've used CM7 several times over the past few months and don't recall any kind of issue.

there is a quick and easy fix. it happens once, and then no more. download app cache cleaner from market, and clean all the cache from your apps. also boot into recovery and wipe the cache partition. reboot, and all is well again.
this usually happens with doing constant flashes and restores.

Im not following you. The cache cleaner is a temporary fix. Once your apps use up the cache, the phone starts becoming very unstable. The problem is CM7 uses a very small amount of flash for app data compared to what the stock Samsung. I found myself having to clean cache daily, then I got to the point where it wasnt even helping because of the lack of space.
give this a shot. if this doesn't fix your appdata issue, im stumped. however i havent ran into that issue since mid-october if that means anything with using the kernel cleaner before every flash and recovery.

I wanted to flash my wt19i with the AOSP ROM. Is wiping the user data necessary before flashing it? What will happen if i dont wipe the user data?
Yes. It is highly recommended, especially if coming from stock ROM.
Else there will be compability problems with certain files that can lead to force closes and/or freezing/restarting.
But u can still flash ROMs without Wiping user data right
Sure, but the risk of having problems with new rom is significantly higher.
Anyone know why always encounter error bad zip then installation aborted while installing exMIUI Using stock rom 4.0.4 rooted? Is it any relation with wiping data? Cache & dalvik ?

Clearing user data / factory reset is always a good idea when changing ROMs. Minimizes issues especially if the ROM you're flashing has an app you already have. Not clearing has been known to cause FCs in such cases and un+reinstalling doesn't help at times.
If you're concerned about apps already installed and don't wanna lose the settings or just simply don't want to reinstall them, backup using TB. Restore after flashing is done.

Based on my experience, yes, there are too many issues that can occur trying to preserve the data. Maybe an expert could do it, but even then, probably not worth the effort.

Not always necessary
It is not always necessary but it is recommended
For example I was coming from ex miui 4 and wanted real ics , so I just installed the zip over miui and it was running fine. Just wifi error but you can fix that easily
Hello good people of the xda forums,
I'm having trouble with the Dalvik on my Ray running stock 4.0.4 (587). I recently updated from GB to ICS. I did not wipe anything, as I was in no mood re-set and re-install all my settings and apps. (Did this numerous times before, and my GB installation was running as smooth as an Android's butt (haha)). After flashing 4.0.4 I flashed the older 4.0.3 (562) Kernel, rooted, and re-flashed the 4.0.4 Kernel. All went well. I just had to reinstall some apps that wouldn't load via Titanium Backup. Now everything is fine.
Except for the fact that upon each and every reboot, the system re-initializes all Apps in the Dalvik cache, as if the cache had been wiped. Note: before I updated to ICS, I had moved my system Dalvik to the system partition as I was running low on internal memory. Now, my system Dalvik is back in the user partition, but for some strange fact I have even more free memory than before with GB.
Anyway, everything runs fine once the system is done booting. But it's a bit annoying that the system is re-initializing the Dalvik during each reboot. Does anyone have any idea as to why this could be, and what I could do about it?
Thanks!
Whatever ... the problem seems to have fixed itself. ICS 4.0.4 is now running as smooth as GB 2.3 did before. It still baffles me though that even though the complete Dalvik is in the user partition, I still have more free memory than before ...
Then, write a [SOLVED]-Tag behind the title! :good:
Good luck! :fingers-crossed:
Hello,
Lately I notice that some apps clear their default state after I restart.
Specifically: my keyboard app, my launcher and few more. I have set them as default again every time I restart.
This started only recently. I am using WanamLite 6.5.
Something in your phone has become corrupt, if clearing cache, dalvic then fixing permissions doesn't help then full wipe and reflash.
Thanks for the suggestion, but no go, sadly. This happened AFTER a full wipe and a flash - and clearing the caches and permissions didn't help.
This wasn't happening before, by the way.
Try going back to stock and see if it still happens.
Just wanted to let you know, for future reference, that the problem is solved in the latest WanamLite 6.6 XXEMD2.
So after having updated my n4 through all versions from 4.4 to 5.1 i have realised that everytime i clear my cache using TWRP i gain 1+ GB of free storage, but during the first boot, ~140 apps get "optimised" and my 1+ gig of cache is back? Why is this necessary? If i install a 5.1 factory image, wiping my device clean, and reinstall all my apps (including xposed and so on), would there still be this much cache that would rebuild itself on boot after deleting it? It just does not make any sense to me.
I'm just interested in the background... Ok well maybe im gonna do the wipe thing, as i have about 500mb of space left and 1Gb or even more (i think it's changing between 1.2 an 1.4, depending on how much apps i have insalled, duh) would really help.
Thanks in advance
