"Out of space" message but have tons of space!

God I suck at this....okay here's my new issue of the day...
I currently have 284 apps on my SD card and just a handful of apps on the phones internal. I cleared the dalvik cache via TiBackup and rebooted. I try to install a game and I get the following message:
"Out of space. Reckless Getaway could not be installed. Free up some space and try again"
Problem is according to TiBackup I see the following for my memory usage:
System ROM: 390 MB free of 576 MB
Internal: 778 MB free of 1.21 GB
SD card: 4.46 GB free of 30.2 GB
Clearly I have more than enough free memory.... What is going on? I'm dying here trying to solve this issue and I can't figure it out after trying every freakin' thing possible from my past 2 hours of searching. Phone is a MyTouch 4g running MIUI 1.9.16 rom w/ 2.6.35.14 demonspeed v9 #21 kernel

[PROBLEM] No free space on drive - cannot install/update apps

Hello everyone, cause I am new here.
I hope I've set this topic in a proper forum. I seem it is a general problem, not connected with specific model of phone.
It began when I was updating apps on the phone - I saw a message about a lack of free space. Update couldn't be continued. I had CyanMobile eXperience custom ROM, my phone is Samsung Galaxy Mini.
Firstly, I tried to clean SD card, removing most of photos taken with camera. It helped for a short period of time, but although I had plenty of free room on SD card, the problem returned. There was no free place on the internal memory.
I tried to move all possible apps to SD card using options from settings menu (most of them were already on the card, I had done it before), but this also help for a short time.
So I entered Recovery and used Wipe Cache. What is important - probably without any need I used also Fix Permissions option. After this, the phone stopped reacting, so I turned out the battery (now I know that I shouldn't do it).
After a reboot, the OS and the launcher returned to factory settings. I understand that it's a consequence of Wipe Cache. But, additionally, Home key stopped working. I guess that it might be because of the wrong use of the Fix Permissions. So I repeated it (waiting until the Fix Permissions finishes), but it didn't help. Home key didn't work all the time.
I read that the only solution is reflashing the ROM, so i decided to install something newer: this CyanogenMod. It helped for a Home hey problem, but not for a free space problem.
Somebody adviced me to use Link2SD app. I managed to install it after removing few apps and moved all possible apps to SD card with this app. To do it, I had to repartition the card. I made 512 MB Ext4 partition (my SD card is 2 GB) for Link2SD. Installed one or two updates and the problem came back again.
I have no idea what to do now. I'm wondering about Wipe Data, but I am not convinced to do it, cause I would have to install everything again. Moreover, I seem that it won't give much, after installing all the apps and updates it will be no free place in the phone internal drive again.
Meanwhile, don't know why: due to Fix Permissions misuse, Wipe Cache, or changing ROM, some apps vanished.
The OS shows 23,95 MB free space in the internal memory (total capacity - 178 MB, 58,71 MB used by apps data, 576 MB by cache, so about 120 MB strangely disappeared) and 370 MB free space on SD card (not taking into account Link2SD partition - second one with FAT16: capacity 1,36 GB, 56 KB taken by apps data, 27,2 MB by photos and movies, 64 KB by sounds, 80,55 MB by downloaded data, 288 KB - cache, 545 MB - "different").
Strange is this "eaten" part of the phone internal drive.
What to do now?

[SOLVED][Q] Device memory eaten

The Device Memory section at the storage page in setting displays that:
Total space: 1.97 GB
Applications: 1.23 GB
Available: 49.52 MB
Where did the 700MB gone?
This happens when I upgrade the Android from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2. I've installed less apps in 4.1.2 than in 4.0.4 (I wiped my phone before upgrade).
I tried to wipe dalvik cache which give only 10~20MB. How to freed the eaten device memory?
Also, strange enough, I've move many apps moved to sdcard but it seems their data are still remain in device memory. I check one large apps' info:
Total: 165 MB
Application: 100 KB
USB storage app 51.81 MB
Data: 113 MB
SD Card 0.00B
Does this mean 113MB data still in device memory?
EDIT:
I finally found out what take up the near 700MB space.
I delete all files in /data/lost+found/ freed 666MB.
I use an apps called disk usage to locate this.
Jelly bean takes up a lot more storage space than ICS for a start. How many apps do you have installed? I have about 60 downloaded apps installed (not including the pre-installed apps) & I have 0.97GB free in that partition. Do you have a few hundred installed?

In my App To SD in ZDBox (an integrate toolbox apps with app2sd, taskkill, etc function), I have 43 Apps in phone (only 8 apps movable) and 41 Apps on SD Card, not counting android component. But in the "All" page in Application Management in Options, I got 200 Apps including android components.
I don't know which is more trustworthy but no matter how, many large apps have been moved to SD Card. Even from the "All" page in Application Management which includes many android component, I manually add up the space occupied. It is just 1.25 GB.
Where do the 700 MB gone and how can I get them back?
By the way, how many disappeared device memory do you have, Hopper8? I mean when you subtract the sum of all components including available space from total.
Weird. From what I manually added up all apps in phone and sd card, its just 1.25GB.
But there are 1.23 GB of Application in "Device memory" and 1.66 GB of Application in "USB Storage" in Application Management.
1.23+1.66=2.89 GB >>1.25 GB
I am driven crazy.

Hmm. Without seeing what you're adding up, its hard for me to visualize. It does sound like you're missing some space though.
How did you upgrade to JB? Did you flash via odin? Or accept a Kies/OTA notification? I'm thinking that a full wipe is in order. First step is factory reset.

I did a Wipe Data/Factory Reset and Wipe Cache and flash [Stock Official Firmwares] I9100XWLSW (4.1.2) - United Kingdom (XEU) [05-06-13] with ODIN.
It's difficult to make a list of my apps but as for my adding up, it includes all data except cache of all apps installed on no matter device storage or external SD card. I also checked the apps' cache size with a system cleaner. Only 30 MB of Cache in total.
Do you have device memory not inside any categories (not even in Miscellaneous or System)? Strangely I just have one categories, Application, except available under Device Memory (or Internal Storage in some version) section at Storage in Options.
Hmm. And you have used a few different system cleaners and such to have a look at what's on there?
As for my listings for the storage usage, I've got available, apps, and cached data for my internal storage. Nothing else.
I really don't know if I can be of any other help to you mate if there are any other posters who can help, please do.

PS: You didn't flash any pit files previously, no?
Either you've got "hidden" apps or a piece of your nand is not reachable/writable

I've got the same problem. Running Revolt/JB ROM. But had the same problem with the previous ROM (AOKP/JB).
Storage tab in settings reports: total space: 1.97GB , Apps (app data & media.. : 0.95 GB, Available: 242MB.
So yeah. Android's using some fuzzy math here, or something isn't being reported properly.
I did a full factory wipe, no luck fixing the issue.
95 apps, rough count just flipping through the screens in the app drawer.

Andriod 6.0 keeps consuming internal storage after app updates

I have a stock Android 6.0 tablet iBall Slide 4G. When I reset the device, it has 10 GB free out of 16 GB total. I have less than 10 apps on it other than stock Google apps. The problem is that as apps get updated, it keeps consuimg internal storage to such an extend that within a month it consumes total 10 GB free internal storage. Even if I clean cache etc. using clean master app, it does not clear more than 200-300 MB and internal storage is full. I have other Android 6.0 phones like CoolPad Note 5 etc. that have 16 GB internal storage but its memory usage does not exceed more than 1-2 GB even after updating all apps through out the year.
Because of my above problem in my tablet, I have to reset my tablet every month. Please suggest a solution.

Disable automatic Updates from play store.
And only install those updates which are necessary or critical to the apps.
To disable automatic updates
>Goto play store.
>Goto settings from sidebar.
>There will be a option of 'auto update apps', open this
option and select 'do not auto update apps'.
Hit thanks if helped.

I have reeder tab it makes log files. One of them is 35 mb and a month later it makes 100 of them. Your problem could be something like this. I think you should analyze storage. With this you can see which file takes how many storage. To do that I recommend es file exporer. Install es file explorer (recommend v4.0.2 from apkmirror.com) press navigate button choose sd card analyst. If this not work no big files go to settings apps check youtube, facebook, instagram cache some cleaner apps cant detect their cache. Clear them manualy.
Hope these work for you

Apks installer problem!

I have galaxy note 5 with android 7 that has 32 GB of memory and its free memory was 2.2 GB. I downloaded an APKS file(1 GB) and wanted to install it with "SAI", it took a long time and because I didn't have much free memory, the phone froze and I restarted it, but the space occupied is not freed. I cleared the SAI data, cleared the cache of my phone and finally deleted SAI, but the memory is not freed.
Only 200MB is free now!!!
please guide me. Of course, except "clear data" of phone and "factory reset"
Try the excellent SD Maid - System cleaning tool.
