Hi guys,
You may have heard of this problem, my phone won't accept manual app installation from .apk files. The problem = not enough memory; this is quite ridiculous since i still have ard 1.5+ GB for my app memory partition in the internal SD.
I searched for solutions in the internet + forum and found nothing to my benefit. I tried clearing cache from recovery, clearing google apps cache, removing the original google play with some cracked one and it still won't work.
Anyone of you guys have any idea to deal with this problem? Thanks

The apps aren't installed in the internal SD the are installed in the /data partition so you have to uninstall unused apps or do a full wipe
Hope i helped

hi every one
i have moto milestone and rooted it , downloaded the cyanogen mod 7 and flashed it successfully" after wiping all cash dalvik and data partitions" and it worked in excellent manner but after installing a lot of apps and games and for some reason rebooted " or may be shut it down or even the battery was empty" and tried to restart the problem happened !
it starts normally for 2 or 3 minutes and prepares the sd card and starts force close/wait/report msg with the adw launcher and then stuck freezes and stop responding completely .
restarting by removing the battery for several times with now result!
wiping the data partition was the only solution but on account of removing all my installed apps!
tried backing the nandroid backup with all my apps installed and restoring it and no hope!
tried alot of other launchers like adw launcher ex , crazy home , regina launcher and miui and samsung pure breez some of them had the same problem and crazy home and i91 home struggled a little bit so i thought it was the launcher problem but after 2 or 3 days they have the same problem and the phone got freeze after every restart or power up
i am very sorry for very long description but only to let u know my problem entirely so what to do ? what is the problem and how to fix?
is this is due to the large no of apps or due to gapps installation or what?
help pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez

sorry pleez tell how to know as iam new to android system but if u r meaning the internal storage space no for sure as i set the installation destination in the cyanogen settings to external and all of them on the sd card !
if this is not what u mean pleez help !
another notice is that the phone works excellent if i removed the sd card !!!!!
so may it be because of the large no of apps or as u said before about data partition which iam waiting for u to explain pleez !
backup and delete .android_secure folder from sd card and see for yourself if the apps are the problem.

i deleted this folder .android_secure and powered it and worked snappy and no any issues so great but all the apps didn't appear and the manage applications shows them as unavailable on the sd card icon without there icons and the displayed size is the data and not the apps size after moving them
so hence the problem is the apps large amount of data or large no or some thing like that !
so what?
what is the problem & how to solve?
does any body faced this?
what is the max no of apps and games u have?
or what wrong setting or hack i don't know?

Its no good moving many apps to sd card... specially your launcher. If you do really want to do it, i strongly suggest you to partition your sd card via OR and add an ext4 partition.
Please refer to OR thread on how to do it if you are not aware of it.
One huge tip is after creating this ext4 partition, install S2E from market and READ the instructions.

The Milestone port of CM7 is not official, so there are bound to be issues. Under the assumption that it is not the ROM's fault, I suggest trying a different SD card. I highly suspect that it is just the ported ROM's compatibility issues, but you may still want to check the SD card to eliminate the possibility of your external storage being at fault.

Hey everyone in this forum,
I have a friend who has a Galaxy Mini. And its had a few problems.
First off, its had problems with memory. Her phone doesn't recieve texts and emails (although I think emails is a syncing matter) because apparently there's no memory- she's told me it says "Message memory full- incoming message rejected" or along those lines.
Around this point she had ~23MB of internal storage remaining.
Also she kept getting the "Low memory" notification at that point.
Games like Flow force-closed on her often as well, making them unplayable. Which was strange because on my mum's Mini Flow ran fine.
Now she's deleted quite a few apps/cleared data and cache manually through Task Manager and the phone seems to be running fine again, but this (from having a Galaxy Apollo) I know is a recurring problem with low internal memory.
Also, copying files via SD adaptor and USB cable doesn't work either. Transferring files gives a "write-protected" message- is that the phone or are they just the files themselves?
I'm sorry if these have been asked before but its incredibly hard to search an individual forum on mobile.
If it helps:
Firmware: 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD.XXKL3
Model number: GT-S5570I
My friend has next to no idea about Android, and so please avoid suggesting custom roms/kernels and rooting, especially because the phone is still relatively new.
Also, if possible please suggest any solutions to any of the above that does not include factory resetting/wiping data.
Any help is greatly appreciated

I think she had quite a few apps and went on a mass uninstalling frenzy :L but do you need to be rooted to clear the Dalvik cache by Titanium Backup?

Hey, thanks for your help, but I don't really want to root her phone- its her phone and the warranty is still on it, plus this is her first smartphone so she's still a new user.
Would it be best to move all the apps she can (without root) to her SD card? Would that still solve the problem?

I need a little help.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830. Running on this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442024 version 20131114. I have link2sd installed and working in my phone.
Recently when I tried updating my hangouts, it wouldn't. Instead it showed me insufficient storage. I cleared the cache of all apps and hangouts data to create some more space. After all that I have managed to get a free space of about 40MB. The hangout update is only 13MB. But I'm still getting the same error while installing hangouts. After that I tried uninstalling hangouts and then install it again. It still didn't work.
Can anyone please help me with this?

This time I tried installing whatsapp(12MB) in my phone when I had about 40MB free internal memory. It would download from play store fine. But then while installing, it is showing "insufficient memory" error. Then I had to uninstall a game and another app(TrueCaller) to install whatsapp.
Any help would be much appreciated. :fingers-crossed:

Hello peeps!
This is my first post! But it aint any tutorial, rather just a problem I am facing. Since, ya'll know, galaxy pop has a very little internal memory, hence, too many apps cannot be installed. However, this problem was overcome by apps such as the one mentioned in the question. But now the problem I face is, after I upgraded to CM11 (jenkins) this method no longer works. From un-installing system apps to moving them. Either there is so "no media available error" or "no sufficient permissions error" (even though SU allows L2SD) :crying:
So, is there something I am missing out? Is there something I need to do? I am ready to wipe data any number of times, but just don't want to downgrade.
PS. I tried the ADB method. :laugh: It was decent, but problem? System apps can't be moved, or atleast the option wasn't enabled in my phone.
PPS. I really love this ROM, so please, any suggestions except downgrading would be appreciated. :fingers-crossed:
You should uninstall link2sd and flash cronmod INT2EXT. It's a script that mounts your sd-ext partition as data, so that you get more storage.
For this need a class 10 sd card or faster and you have to create an sd-ext partition on it. There are many tutorials on how to do that, just Google it.

Be sure to check if it removes the script or not. In theory it does, but checking doesn't hurt.

hey, I just wanted to inform that I tried to use Cronmod's INT2EXT, but it didn't do the trick for me. :crying: I was wondering, every time I use ES file explorer, I see a "sd-ext" folder. Will moving apps there do the trick?
I know this may be a stupid question, but I am just curious.

More than likely its a cache issue. Easiest fix, install a cache clearing app like iorbit's mobile care. There are posts in the mega thread explaining other options like repartitioning your memory.

Sorry you don't like it, but that's your answer. They come with 1GB. That's what they have.
You can modify that - but that requires *gasp* modification.
