[Q] Database storage is getting low? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got a notification that my database storage is getting low. I deleted sms messages and call logs, but the notification is still there. My phone wont scan my external sd card either: it is stuck at 0%..
I got 2.2, z4root and oclf lagfix. Can anyone tell me whats wrong? Thanks in advance.
EDIT// Now I noticed that my contacts and messages are taking 121MB/127MB, and yesterday it was only 27MB/127MB... This is seriously a bit weird...

Hi Posters,
I am in the same position, changed my ring tone yeday to a normal mp3 that played through the music app no issues.
Rebooted a few times....then noticed that my device wouldnt complete the media scanning on the External SD card.
Now the phone generally lags and goes bonkers, force closes on all apps all sorts every time I put the SD card in, seems to be something to do with the database that the media scanning writes to, corrupted or something.....what is it though and how to fix!?
Any help anyone can offer us would be great.
I unidid the One Click Lag fix to try and resovle this but no help....

[Q] Captivate starts randomly playing a song??

Anyone else had this?? A couple of times a day it just starts playing a song off the SD card... it's always the same song... It's not while getting an email, text, or phone call... Anyone else experienced this? It's a brand new phone that's just rooted and sideloading enabled... Still on stock firmware, 3 days old...
Which song? LOL
Never heard of that, if it keeps up you're within your 30 days, return it.

That's just it, this IS the replacement The old one is sitting on the table for an issue where it always thought the USB was plugged in even when it wasn't. It did the music thing as well, was hoping it was due to the same USB issue but I guess not... It's got to be one of the installed apps... Going to start uninstalling stuff, but most of the apps are various google apps (goggles, etc)
It happened to me the first time I flashed. Even though my alert notification settings were reloaded and set for the same sounds, and those sounds were on the same place on my sd card, I got the alphabetically first mp3 that was on my phone for every alert. I had to go in and re-select each notification tone and everything was fine after that.
My guess is that you restored something with settings that has an alert sound. Obviously, not anything that you mentioned (email, sms) but something through maybe you forgot about?

!!!!!!!! HMMM now this is a possibility... Facebook was set to notify with a tone, but no tone was selected in the menu. I selected one and we'll see if that fixes it

This happened to me once. Funny thing was the mp3 that it started to play was a chapter in the bible calling for repentance. I thought god was calling me out. Turns out it was just the first mp3 in my list.

Hahaha that's amazing
This is a job for "Ghost Hunters."
Ah, this is the thread I need. Yes, this is happening to me as well. What I found is that the music seems to play when switching network connections. For example, if I'm in a poor reception area and the phone switches from 3G to wireless, the music might start playing.
The way to stop the music is to pull down the notification drawer. Weird.
This seemed to happen a lot more when I flashed Cognition 2.3b8 / 3.04.
Sound familiar to anyone else?
Sounds like you guys have the option turned on to notify you when switching towers or whatever that setting is called. I know it's there, just haven't used it on this phone. I use it when I travel so if I change towers it alerts me and I can see if I'm roaming.
Look for this in the settings, and turn that notification off.
Is that an option in 2.2? Couldn't find it, but perhaps I'm missing something. What I am hoping is that it's one of the apps I have installed, like NoBars. I'm turning other notifications off to see if that helps. The odd part is this only happens maybe once a day, so to me it doesn't appear consistent.
Mine is doign the same thing as described by the OP. Seems to be playing the first mp3 located in the "Music" folder I created on my internal 16gb SD-card randomly throughout the day. Not sure if it coincides with the battery full notification or not.
The started happening a couple days ago, before I switched to official froyo, and now it's doing the same thing after the upgrade. I have never rooted or flashed my Cappy, other than from official 2.1 -> official 2.2 yesterday.

No Apps in App Drawer?

I am on a Custom ROM and this problem has occurred on several different ROMs, from Time to Time "Some" or "All" my App Icons disappear from App Drawer. I can usually get them back by Rebooting but sometimes I have to Power Off and ON a few Times or even pull the battery to get them back. Does this happen to other people?

Are your apps ssored on the internal sd, or external? Move them to the internal one if not. Should fix your problem.
Also, in the future, please tell us which rom/kernel you are using. It will help with troubleshooting, as some problems are rom specific. Hope this helps.

All Apps are on the Internal sd and at the moment I am on Ficeto's Base JVP but it has happened on Darky's 9.5 and 10.1.
Do they disappear at random or in relation to something you've done? My app drawer goes blank once in awhile, but only when I do something that involves an app that modifies some system activity or process. Like the phone has to take a few moments to rescan what apps are on my phone. It never requires a reboot, though.

It seems to happen if I have just done something. Sometimes it occurs when I update an App or at times it has happened after I have Run TiBackup to backup newest Apps. This Morning I was connected to my Computer moving some things Off my PC to phone and when I disconnected from PC and hit App Drawer I had like 4 Apps there. So I Powered phone Off and On then checked Drawer I had NO apps. Powered Off--Pulled Battery and Rebooted still nothing. Finally after another "Re Power" they all back.
when you run TiBu to make a backup, it kills each app that it is backing up, if they are running. your launcher is running so it kills the process and when it is done, you have to give it a few minutes to rescan. if you have used apps2sd or moved apps to the SD using the built in application manager, once you are mounted to your PC, they will not show up because your phone no longer has the internal sd mounted.
there is no reason to have everything moved to SD if you already have them there

[Q] Getting false internal storage full warnings

Anyone else experiencing getting false internal storage almost full warnings?
A few days ago I had a warning that my internal storage was 75% full. I checked my storage and it says I still have 7gb free. Today the message came up again saying my internal storage is 101% full. How is that even possible?! In storage settings it still says 7gb free.
How do I fix this?

Maybe there are some temp files? Do you get warrning in time of usage some application/game?
Yup, have had exactly the same messages being displayed, first time round I agreed and it seems to have copied some random instagram photos and camera thumbs. 2nd and 3rd time I have just ignored the message but it does seem like a fault, and will become increasingly annoyingly. Using clean master app regular to remove temp files and free ram

Can also confirm it here, but only within the first week. Since then its been fine - most strange.
I also keep having my microSD card randomly dismount and that was driving me nuts, but as it was empty I just ended up taking it out. Will try another one when I eventually get around to it.

when memory usage above 1.5G, no ring tone, no touch sound, no lock screen sound.

Hi, I have an ATT note 3 with NB4 firmware, rooted, recently I noticed I had many miss calls, I found out if the RAM usage is high like above 1.5g,
I lost my ring tone and lock screen sound, also not keyboard touch sound Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks
Did you install some sort of ram freeing software?

None, I use Ti back freeze all the att bloatwares and some Google services I don't use, also some Samsung stock apps.
The sound come back after I clear some memory, it below 1.5gb, I didn't notice that happened when I was on MJ5.
thanks

After reboot, memory is around 1gb.
It drive me nuts, because I don't know when it will reach above 1.5gb, I can see the incoming calls, but no ring tone.
I can only recommend hard reset / wipe. Mine is also 1gb on reboot and the after that is constantly at around 2gb during the day and I get no missed phone calls or any ring tone problems. I used to have the qmm_camera_daemon problem where the process was draining my battery like crazy and camera stopped working after a period of time just for sitting in my pocket although worked perfectly at boot. It might be something similar but with the sound, unless you want to uninstall all the apps, it can be any...
Edit : forgot to mention, for me it was the yahoo messenger plug in that caused the camera freeze

Please i am strugling with alot of issue another one is ipc wakelock which only happens sometimes but when it does it ruins the battery
And the last there is some issue with my calendar , it keeps working like crazy , i had it syncd with facebook but when i figured out its eating battery i removed my sync account deleted data and cache from calendar but no help , i stopped calender sync from every account and cleared cache and data no use, it starts again and keeps running like anything. Even when i deleted my facebook calendar sync from accounts, when i rebooted my device the first error i get is to log into facebook so apps can be syncd.. Which i turned off from everywhere but calendar is not letting it go.. Please these have made my phone going crazy and i cant handle them.
The mmc wake lock may be your sd card. Take it out for a while and see if it stops. If it does, it needs to be formatted/repaired. If it doesn't stop, it may be the internal sd but probably not.
The ipc wakelock... Good luck my friend. It drove me nuts and ended up factory reseting. It has to do with location services/gps.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
yes i took sd card out the mmc did not stop i rebooted the phone the mmc did not stop , i dont think it has anything to do with sd card as it only starts when wifi is connected.
This mmc one is not stopping at all now from 2 days. I somehow stopped ipc one by turning on gps then location service for 2 3 minutes than i turned them off and ipc went away..
There is one more issue with calendar and android.acore they are somehow related, now there is some issue with calendar and i did everything but the calendar is not stopping , i switched off facebook sync with it and as soon as i turn my phone on it gives me an error to log into facebook to sync apps , but i had it turned off by its stuck somewhere , deleted facebook installed it again but no luck at all..

Hi. I have found the same problem with mmc0:0001:2 on my device and crazy wakelock generated by it. I found information about mmc0 is internal memory, mmc1 is external memory and mmc2 is wifi.
The problem continues during wifi enabled and disabled. The repair of uSD card finished with no efect. The last I booted to TWRP and repaired system and all ather possible to repair partition. It helped. Problem solved.
