Hi, Running greenify on Oneplus one with AICP Rom Nougat 7.1.2
Today I git storage warning and checking usage showed Greenify has 5+ GB gib.xml file !!!!
Is it safe to delete ?

Something is obviously amiss. Uninstall Greenify and delete the gib file if it remains. Then reinstall/reconfigure Greenify and monitor.

This happened to me today. Greenify was using over 12 GB of storage space! It basically just expanded its size (I know, sounds weird, an obvious bug?) to use up all available storage space on my phone. It happened suddenly, this morning I woke up to low space warnings/notifications on my phone.
Phone is an unrooted sprint LG G5 (LS992) nougat 7.0 using the non-beta version of Greenify on the play store.
I uninstalled and re-installed, re-did adb permissions, all seems ok now.

my phone got low on space, I deleted this file, total available space after clearing this and deleting other stuff was above 10GB, a few hours later, phone gave low space warning, before I could do anything,
phone got rebooted, and went into boot loop, even dirty flashing the ROM didn't helped, played around with lot of flashing, skipping user partition but it didn't worked.
I had to re-install the entire ROM along with user partition from Stock ISO, took a lot of time, but everything is fine now.
Nothing due to Greenify but it had largest file on my 1+1 so I reported here.
Since full flashing everything is normal as of now, just bought greenify donation package to support.
Thanks for awesome app, I could never use a android without root and Greenify.

I am using greeinify on my Moto Z play with Lineage OS. I am very surprised to see that it consumes 15.81GB of the internal storage !!!! Dont know why is this ...I have version 3.4.3 of the app.

Appears to be a bug introduced in the 3.5.x branch.

I just encountered the exact same bug on an EmotionOS/hsbadr Nougat build of CM, on my Note 4.
My Greenify version is 3.4.3. I have a "pro" license.

Weird. I just installed Greenify today for the first time ever. Will definitely be checking my storage every so often.

I had the same problem twice. Stuck in bootloop. First time I did a full new flash too. Second time I realized that there was no space left. So I checkt and /data/data/com.oasisfeng.greenify/files/gib.xml was 20+GB big. And /data/system/ifw/gib.xml was 7GB big. Deletet these two with twrp and the phone boot up as normal. Then reinstalled greenify. Works good since then. The last time is a couple of weeks ago.
Right now the gib.xml is again 10GB big.
I just reinstalled greenify and will keep an eye on the XML.
I have a rooted OnePlus 3 with stock android 7.1.1 oxygenOs 4.1.6
Greenify 3.4.3

I just had the same issue except that the file actually toook 25GB of the phone disc

[Q] SOLVED: Can't update apps, can't install apps

Not only will My Galaxy S2 not let me install new apps (trying to install VX Connectbot at a little over 800K) although it has 1.97 GB of internal storage space free, it won't let me update four apps either. They were sitting there trying to update for about half an hour before I gave up.
There's nothing wrong with the (Wifi) Internet Connection, as proved by other apps on the phone as well as by the Google Play Store updater.
If I go into Settings, Apps to look at the Play Store entry, it never finishes updating the Cache and Data storage figures, so the 'Clear Data' button is greyed out. If it wasn't I could clear the data and force the app to re-download it from Google's server. I've also tried rebooting but this makes no difference.
I really don't want to have to do a factory reset to fix this so I'd be grateful for any ideas. The phone is running stock Jelly Bean supplied by Samsung.

I don't think Stock JB is rolled out yet by Samsung. But anyways try to clear cache and dalvik cache from recovery. This mostly resolves issues in any ROM.
Secondly, what are you referring to when you mention internal storage? If it's data partition then 1.97 is total size and not free. So please check that.
Lastly what ROM are you coming from? If its ICS then a factory reset is strongly recommended.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm trying to handle a million things at the same time, which is always when something else goes wrong. It is, of course, running ICS 4.0.4. I thought about clearing the cache via recovery and I'll do that if I don't find another solution. The phone won't be out of action for too long.

Ooops! Quoted the wrong figure. There's 834 MB free.

It was running Gingerbread when I got it but I did the factory reset before doing an OTA update to ICS.
No issues
Since you are now on 4.0.4 do not do a factory reset since your kernel might have the Brick bug.
There are threads that provide steps on re flashing ROM over 4.0.4. You will need to first flash a custom kernel that does not have this bug like Siyah or cf-root and then flash a ROM.
Just ensure that you follow the steps properly to get a clean install.

I powered down and booted into Recovery, wiped the cache, and rebooted. It only took about 40 seconds to reboot which seems strange to me as under 2.2 and, I think, 2.3, it took a few minutes to rebuild the cache. Then the first thing that happens on keying in my pin and reaching the home page, I get the message, "Unfortunately, eBay has stopped." Maybe this has something to do with the problem, maybe it doesn't.
One other thing I noticed earlier but didn't mention as it didn't seem relevant is that some apps have changed their name in Settings, Applications. For example, Picshop Lite is now listed as air.ca.esdot.PicShop.Lite.
Anyway, it has made no difference. I look at any app in the list and it sits there saying "Computing...". I can force-stop running apps but I can't install apps, uninstall apps, or update apps. I'm going to leave this overnight (it's late here) and if I can't think of anything else before tomorrow I'll have to do a factory reset and reinstall everything.
Thanks, acekay, your post appeared while I was still editing mine. I knew absolutely nothing about this bug so you might have saved me from bricking the phone. The page you linked to mentions CWM. Since mine is a Samsung stock ROM it would be the stock recovery I'd be using. Is this likely to brick the phone? I guess it's better to be on the safe side and follow the instructions.
I'm also wondering about my legal position here. I got the phone from Virgin Mobile (UK) on a monthly plan. It was running Gingerbread before I did the OTA update to ICS and the update went OK. If the phone messes up and I do a factory reset and that bricks the phone, who is responsible, I wonder, Virgin Mobile or Samsung...
It took some lateral thinking but I think I've solved it. I powered down the phone, took out the micro-SD card, and powered up again. I went into Settings, Applications, Google Play Store and cleared the Data. I then ran the Play Store app and ran the four updates that were pending and everything went OK, so I tried installing VX Connectbot and that went OK, too, as did uninstalling the original Connectbot. As a precaution I uninstalled the eBay app just in case that was causing the problem. It's possible that somehow the eBay app got installed onto the SD card in error and that might have something to do with it stopping with an error every time I rebooted the phone.
I've noticed that the names in Settings, Applications are all now back to normal so I'm guessing that in fact it was something in Play Store's data that was messed up. Of course, that might have been caused by the eBay app. <Sarah Connor> God, a person could go crazy thinking about this. </Sarah Connor>
Anyway, thanks again, acekay. Working through my problem and your responses led to a solution.
Good to know its solved. So the issue was with moving the apps to SD . Better still that you tried this before a reset.
In case you plan on playing with custom ROMs in future just keep this bug in mind. Better to be cautious than sorry.
Cheers...

Well, I can't be sure. I'm nowhere near needing to move apps to the card yet, and since I've uninstalled the eBay app I've no way of knowing if that's where it was. Or if it was causing the problem. But I do know that I won't be staying on ICS forever. If Samsung ever get round to giving us JB, I'll update to that. If they don't I'll look for a non-stock (and non-Touchwiz, thankfully) ROM. So thanks for telling me about the bug.
Same problem with SGS2 4.1.2, stock rooted rom. No external SD card.
I noticed one thing. When I do the following:
Settings->Application manager->All
it displays about 200M free and 1.7GB used, but after few seconds it changes to about 450M free and 1.5G used.
At the same time it (long pressing home button and select memory usage->storage) shows 1.77GB/1.97GB free memory of system storage. So only about 200M is free. The same result is obtained in Teminal Emulator by inputting DF command. So it is very strange that in Application manager the free system memory is increased from 200M to 450M but in terminal and memory manager system manager is constant 200M.
So what the algorithm to solve the problem of install or update apps from market?

Try clearing cache using some application like ES Task Manager, I had useless cache data of about 400Mb once and the biggest contributor was chrome at 100Mb.. And try using apps like SD Maid which will help you clean out clutter.

Miscellaneous Files Problem

So I understand the OS takes up a certain percentage of the device's memory but something seems ridiculous in this? I don't have many apps installed (few social networking apps and two games, Flappy Bird and Sonic 2) and I don't download documents or anything like that, so I don't know what's going on. Any idea what "miscellaneous files" would be taking this much space?? I've cleared cache by the way, just to make sure.
Did you root your phone? Are you running a custom ROM by any chance?
In my case, I have a rooted S4 running the Hyperdrive ROM, and I forgot to delete the installer after I flashed it; it takes up a whopping 2GB of space almost, and I was wondering what was using it up. I used the file browser to delete it and regained space.
I havent seen a stock phone use up that much space in misc, so maybe you've got updates or carrier bloat? More info would help, device model, build version, the like.

Yeah, sorry about that. I'm stock rooted, all the way up to date (mk2). No custom Roms (or safestrap). but I did use xposed for a bit with a lot of modules which I have since deleted. think it could he leftover files? not sure where to look exactly though. and I wouldn't think it would just be bloat because I've only recently noticed it taking that much space.

Yeah, I think it could be leftover module files. I was always told to disable modules before deleting them, otherwise they might not be completely deleted, even after reboots. Xposed, once installed, should create a small file you can flash in Safestrap that removes all modules. If you dont have that file, reinstall the framework only, reboot, and then use a file manager to see if its there. Its usually in the root of the internal storage.
You both must be new to the GS4. When it was released people kept complaining about the 9 GB of available Internal Storage.
So that 7.37 GB your'e seeing are all the miscellaneous files your phone needs to run. You can't/shouldn't delete them and everyone that owns a GS4 has them.
Regarding yo applications, you have 7.26 GB of application data on your phone. I highly doubt you have only "2" applications installed. The phone comes with at least 200 apps already installed on it :crying: Try rooting and uninstalling most of those you don't use.
And here is what my phone shows. Only 9.59 GB of TOTAL SPACE available and it only shows 5.43 MB of Misc. data cause Stock Android is way more realistic than TouchWiz. I'm running CM11 so its a bit more realistic than what the stock TouchWiz version shows but yeah I don't think anyone who owns a GS4 has ever had more than 9.5 GB of data to use. It sucks because Verizon and Samsung misled people when they said it had 16 gigs.
Good Luck :highfive:
Exactly... Never more than 9.59 g total lol it was a big deal when the s4 came out. Here's mine.. In running BeanStalk ROM

I knew the problem of not much space being available when new, and I am not new here. After trying to uninstall xposed, remove the files, etc I was getting nowhere so I decided to do a factory reset. Turns out it was something to do with my Apps taking up a ridiculous amount of space. After resetting and installing the EXACT SAME apps, my app space is down to 0.90GB. I am still set on it being something to do with xposed modules not being removed correctly and leaving leftover files around or something along those lines (?). But got it fixed. Thanks everyone for the help and suggestions!
Miscellaneous file
I have a Verizon GS4 rooted with Safestrap on MK2 and hyperdrive 14 rom. My miscellaneous file is also crazy. I have 13 GB in this folder and I don't know why. PI erased everything and repartitioned safestrap, but still got this. I don't know what to do. I did the data at 3000, the cashe at 600 and left the system alone at it's default setting.

I've suggested this several times before: use the Disk Usage app from the app store to explore the internal memory to see what's consuming space. In my case, it was thumbnails for the Gallery app eating several gigs of space.

[Q] Weird Problem with the Phone

Hi,
[Sorry for the long post, but please, bear with me. This issue needs a lot of explaining...]
It's been a few weeks since I have been experiencing this weird problem with my phone. It started when one day I picked up my phone and saw that process.android.gapps had stopped. So I did what everyone does and cleared the cache, wiped the data, but still nothing happened. I went over and cleared it for play services too and that reset my google account (no idea why) and everything came back to normal. Or as I thought it did. A few days later, I again had the same problem in front of me, except that it was not just gapps this time, it was a ****load of a few more apps, including process.???.acore, all giving ANRs. Plus my google account got erased somehow so play store won't login and all other unnecessary stuff.
So I got frustrated and went over to the recovery and tried to factory reset. And this is where I realized something. IT DIDN'T HELP! The phone started as normal and I saw the startup screen. But as soon as I started entering my details, all the ANRs came back simultaneously.
So I did a lot of other stuff to rectify this, all in vain. Skip to 8 hours later. This is where I realized, some of the apps in /data/data had got corrupted and hence nothing was happening. Also, formatting /data resulted in an error, which I HAVE NO IDEA WHY TILL DATE.
So I did a workaround and renamed /data to something so that the android OS could create a new /data, which IT DID on the next reboot! And all was working fine again.
FOR A FEW HOURS.
Again the same ANR, same everything, no access to /data to format it etc etc.
Again renamed and rebooted and reinstalled Blisspop and gapps and everything.
And this has been the scene ever since.
What aggravates the situation?
A REBOOT
Whenever I reboot my phone, be it soft or hard, It corrupts some or the other app in /data. If I'm lucky it's a non essential app. If not, xx.xx.xx has crashed and the phone is unusable. I usually use ES and try to rename for the non essential apps (as deletion isn't possible), but for the essential ones, a reflash with whole /data/data renaming has to be done.
So basically this is the problem. I have no idea why my /data/data corrupts randomly, or whenever I restart. Could it be because I greenify apps? I stopped using deep hiberation but still this occurs. Or could it be a failing internal memory?
Please Help! I am just frustrated. Might go over to G3 soon if this doesn't work out.

Yeah I guess that's what I'll do finally.
Although I'm still gonna try for a few more days to find something out If I can.
I'll post an update here if I do, in-case someone runs into the same problem as me and needs to find a solution later on.
UPDATE 1 - Okay so I reflashed everything to start over (everything same as before, no downgrading) and I think I may have found a solution. So rebooting the system corrupts /data right? Well, I tried powering off and starting instead of rebooting and that seems to work pretty well. No ANRs even after doing this more than 20 times. [NO IDEA WHY, but hey, it works, so good enough]
Although, I had greenify disabled.
Now, I'll try with it enabled and post an update soon.

Possible Fix | Android Is Starting | Optimizing App x of x | Log of Events

As the title says, maybe this is why you're most likely here.
I have recently experienced this issue while using versions of android with ART (Android Runtime) for almost 3 years. I have a OnePlus 2 that I've purchased in September of 2015 and am now just experiencing this issue although after I've done some searching on google, apparently this has been happening ever since the release of ART.
The phone will eventually boot but I've only witnessed it taking up to an hour. Others around the net have reported up to 12 hours. It seems this can depend on the amount of apps in your phone since they're being optimized.
I've restored an older backup since at first I didn't know what the issue was but after 2 reboots the same issue happened again. This is when it took an hour to boot and I noticed most of my apps were gone although they were all there after the first boot. I'm now restoring my most recent backup which I made in recovery right after this issue first happened and am hoping it will eventually boot with all of my apps/data.
Edit 1: It has successfully booted with all of its data although it took 60 minutes. I rebooted again and now it says, 'Optimizing app 1 of 1' but it seems it will take a long time again.
Edit 2: It has taken exactly 60 minutes to simply reboot without any changes. All apps/data are still present with 18% battery discharge.
People have said this can happen while booting with the charger plugged in but I've tested both scenarios with the same result. Does anyone know what causes this issue? My mom has the same phone and it's not rooted and never had any modifications to the OS but it has also done the same thing without data loss not too long ago.
Edit: The description in this link might explain what's going on. I tried the app but it didn't work.
Android: 6.0.1 API:23
OxygenOS: 3.6.1
TWRP: 3.2.1-0 (https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus2/)
Magisk Root: v16.0
Xposed: 89.2 Systemless by Rovo89
I've found a fix although it takes a little time.
Using Titanium backup
Backup all user apps
Uninstall user apps
Reboot to recovery
Wipe dalvik-cache
Reboot
Restore user apps
I do not know how to properly debug so I used this method. When TitaniumBackup has trouble restoring an app or apps then that .apk(s) are/is the issue. I found out mine was ZEDGE because it was having trouble restoring. After it somehow installed I rebooted and the 'Optimizing app 1 of 1' screen appeared so I rebooted into recovery to delete ZEDGE from /data/app/. It rebooted in less than 2 minutes without ZEDGE.
I also noticed while trying to reinstall it through the Play Store it wouldn't load the downloading animation correctly unless I backed out of the app page then returned to it. If this happens to you then you can try uninstalling all updates for Google Play Store and see what happens. I tried this and eventually received error code 924.
The error is happening during the install process. ZEDGE was previously installed on my device without this issue until it was updated on 4/16/'18.
Not sure how the updated version caused this issue. After it was updated everything was normal until I tried rebooting with it. It seems this issue can happen on anyone's device using ART during the install process for any of your user apps. If anyone has had this happen do you know what causes this error?

My phone's memory capacity went BELOW ZERO, pls help

so, the weirdest thing happened to me. I spent the whole day in an attempt to root my Samsung A8 star with Magisk and after many times failed, i have finally rooted my phone. The next thing i did was install the newest Magisk Manager (Safetynet all green) , the EdXposed framework module, BusyBox binaries module , and Titanium backup
I have uninstalled several bloatwares (both Google's and Samsung's Bixby stuffs) via Titanium, everything went smooth, i can either download apps from CH play or upgrade them.
AND when i checked out the Samsung's default file app, my phone's memory capacity just went BELOW ZERO (-44.72 GB/4GB), the storage analysis showed -1111% used , there was nothing there left, it just showed the ram capacity as the internal storage. I also did some restart and power off but nothing changed, i downloaded the google's File app on CH play (the phone can only receive data from CH play, it doesn't work with chrome or via usb cable, or even screenshot), and the memory capacity in the Google's File app is still there, still normal (11/64GB used) but in the default file app isn't.
But it still shows nothing when i connect the phone to my laptop
You guys can take a look at those pics that i took. (sorry guys, newbie here, right now i can't attach any images )
i really hope you guys can help me with this, but now i will flash the OG firmware back to the phone via odin, i will update for you guys if anything back to normal ](btw all the rooting i did was on odin)

AND when i checked out the Samsung's default file app, my phone's memory capacity just went BELOW ZERO (-44.72 GB/4GB), the storage analysis showed -1111% used , there was nothing there left, it just showed the ram capacity as the internal storage. I also did some restart and power off but nothing changed, i downloaded the google's File app on CH play (the phone can only receive data from CH play, it doesn't work with chrome or via usb cable, or even screenshot), and the memory capacity in the Google's File app is still there, still normal (11/64GB used) but in the default file app isn't.
But it still shows nothing when i connect the phone to my laptop
You guys can take a look at those pics that i took. (sorry guys, newbie here, right now i can't attach images )
i really hope you guys can help me with this, but now i will flash the OG firmware back to the phone via odin, i will update for you guys if anything back to normal ](btw all the rooting i did was on odin)

It just seems to be a bug with the device itself after you've rooted. Does your device give you a notification about it? If not then the filemanager could be bugged out

It could also be a bug with Magisk as well, but does seem to just be a bug eith the filemanager itself. Try the ROM again and use termux to check the real space that you have (df -h or use df). I think Magisk breaks some Samsung features after rooting though as far as i know so that may have been the problem
