Insufficient storage space available. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I am having a hard time applying the fix for the insufficient storage available error which is often seen in cm9 and other ics rims for i9000. I tried the data script cwm flash which was available on XDA but that didn't help. Also then I tried the data fix app available in the play store. Now I don't know if i am doing this wrong, but here's what I did. Most apps which I don't use as often or without widgets I selected all data in the data fix app to be moved to data / data. And then I applied the script with a re boot. But the insufficient storage has appeared again in a few hours.. Can someone suggest me how to fix this?

[Q] Market on CM7

I'm having troubles with Market on latest CM7 Nightlys
Market is FC everytime when i'm trying to install/update an app
I've re-installed gapps, no help
I've cleared up cache/data for Market, no help
Tried re-flash latest [ROM][NIGHTLYS][05/06/2011] CyanogenMod 7 for Galaxy S (Gingerbread 2.3.4), no help
I've noticed that selected app is downloaded successfully but when it should start installation, it will FC (there is over 1.5GB of free space on internal memory partition)
So basically, i can't do nothing.. I'm trying to avoid factory reset to my SGS, i did that just two builds ago
Help is appreciated.
Regards,
Stan
Clear the cache/data from Google Services Framework in Applications > Manage Applications > All as well, and see if that helps.

How many free space do you have on your /datadata partition ?

36.79MB used, 135.21MB free, r/w
Tried nandroid backup, factory reset, all works.. but I restored my backup, there is plenty of things to set-up etc.. and I'm in no mood to play with it
partition
I still didn't fix the problem, do anybody knows what other than WIPE can I do?
However, i find a workaround myself..
There is a partition /cache where all your market downloads are stored. I can find those apps (i've tried to download/install) stored here (multiple times) so I simple clicked on it and installed it. Works!
BTW, This partition is only 50MB and i had only like 5MB free space left. Removed half of this cache using Root Explorer but the market problem still isn't fixed.
Devs, how is it? What happen if this partition gets fully?

try to install the google apps update.zip again and clear the dalvic cache from CWM. I had the same issue and mine got solved by this. Also, as others pointed out, clear the market cache.

[Q] Changing amount of space for installing applications

So I'm getting the error from market if not enough space on cm7. is there any way to increase room for installing applications? I install everything to the sd card anyways, but it still says it's full.

Low on Space error always coming back!

A few months ago I flashed the ICS Slim rom onto my gf's Sgs 1 and then after about a month started having error message "Low on Space", "Phone storage space is getting low" and most apps would not run and just start crashing (Sorry ......... has stopped unexpectedly. Force Close. on attempt to launch.
So i checked the internal and sd memory and she still has well over a gb of memory available on both, i tried a simple reboot. I have even formatted, wiped cache, dalvik and even flashed cyanogenmod 7.2 gb onto it thinking it could be due to the partition of ICS which it still may well be.
Anyway after roughly a month on and the "Low on Space" error and all the force closing of apps is back.
Can anyone shed some light. How can i revert it all back to how it once was. Happy with Cyanogenmod but without these problems.
Thanks in advance
Hey man, try the datafix app by Zatta. The ROMs you've been running use a '/datadata' partition on the phone's faster oneNAND storage to store apps, because the larger 2GB that normally stores apps is slow and causes the lag you see on stock ROMs. But the datadata partition is only 170MB, so it fills up quickly (and you get those low storage notifications).
The datafix app installs a script which sorts it all out for you, and explains the details. Hopefully that'll work, if not then search for the actual script on xda, but you'll have to flash it using recovery. Hope this helps you out!

[Q] error insufficient memory?

Hey ppl. I'm getting an "error insufficient memory" problem while trying to update whatsapp. I've already cleared the cache for google play and whatsapp but still it shows up. I installed another app which was 4 MB and that installed fine. So what should i do? The whatsapp update is 9.3 MB and i have 35 MB free on internal memory. Using PAC ROM.

Delete useless apps and wipe dalvik-cache, then try again
I did that already. I have loads of space dude. It's some problem with google play but idk how to solve it. I already cleared the cache for google play but still it's not letting me download.

Extrat the .apk and install it Whatsapp 2.10.361
Oh ok thx. Another problem. I cleared cache & data for google play and google play services. Then I was trying to install doodle jump(20 mb) i still had loads of space. It finished the download and said storage is limited and then "invalid package file" so it didn't download it. I never had this problem before. Is it because of the ROM? I'm using Link2SD also.

well, I guess the problem might be caused by Link2sd, you need to check and to manage correctly the app and your sd-ext partition even the apps you have moved to the sd-ext partition, be careful with the apps you move, some of them need to stay in system partition in order to work properly
my advice?? Don't use sd-ext partition to avoid problems, I'm sure you don't use all your installed apps, so you can try to delete this useless app or install it, use it and do backup with TB and uninstall it, when you need it again use TB to restore the app and data anyway you can continue using your sd-ext partition cofiguring the manager apps correctly, (If I were you I'd use int2ext script, it's the best way to increase your memory without troubles and chaotic configurations )

[Q] Internal Storage Issues

Hi Guys,\
I am looking for your advice on some internal storage issues on my Samsung Galaxy Note 1 (N7000). i have been using mainly cyanogen rom 10 and Super Nexus Rom.
I keep getting warnings my internal storage (not the internal or external SD card) is nearly full. Apps won't install or update.
If i look at settings/storage/internal storage it says total space 1,97 GB. First it starts out grey and the bar is nearly full. Than it calculates and says there is 192 MB available, 631 mb Apps (app data & media content) installed and 7,71 mb cached data.
I am not an mathetmaticien, but 192 mb + 631 mb + 7,7mb adds up to 830,7 MB. Where is the other 1,166.7 GB gone???? What is eating my internal storage and how can clean this up?
I have tried wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wiped app data, used apps2sd, i have tried loads of cleaning apps. the only that works is a full factory reset. And after a couple of weeks the internal storage fills up again with ghost data... Any advice here??
Try to use Forever Gone, it fills the memory with .blank files, then it erases all those files and free up space. Hope it helps you with that issue.
If not, consider use another rom , like Asylum Rom, it's CM 10.1 and it simply rocks on my Note with no issues at all.
Good Luck!

thanks for the help,
But Gone Forever only cleans up the "internal SD card" Not the internal storage. I have 9 GB free on my Internal SD card, so thats not the issue. The issue is about the 2GB internal storage.

Actually, this post did solve my problem! But i could not solve it without root explorer! Loads of dumpstate files in data/log/ map! I deleted those and my my memory was back to normal! THANKS a lot.
Ofcourse, curious as I am: What the f .. k is causing this?? I did run a malware app to see if there was a corrupt app somewhere to blame.... but found nothing.
