hi guys, im sure you have always seen this 'insufficient storage' problem. im not able to fix it, i had it rooted, and i tried everything! i wanted to use LuckyPatcher and i couldnt install (ironic right?), wanted to use BusyBox and it was´nt working as well. please help me. i need a solution ASAP because i have no whatsapp. thank you.
EDIT:
Ok, i solved this problem. what i did was following this steps: http://mobile.dzone.com/articles/8-simple-steps-fix it was because by default it was set on auto instead of internal. i hope this fixes your problem. please thank me or leave a comment telling me if it worked. after that, i followed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2078603 to have more space and it also worked. thank you people of XDA! have a nice day!
Is it your SD or internal memory?

well i am not alone anymore.
No not alone on this one. Have flashed with Odin is no work. but I have a feeling that theres something wrong with my internal SD card. Is there a Fix for corrupted SD CARDS For Galaxy S. Can you try to format in windows Fats or do I need Linux. I have formated from phone and from kies, my folders go away but when I reboot the phone is back the same with all my folders back again. please help if any ideas. thanks
I've had this one before, needed to format my sd memory (int and ext). All was well then.
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.

Hello All,
Suddenly have the “Couldn’t install on USB storage or SD card” problem. Quite a bit of information on the net on how to solve it, but it isnt doing it for this tablet.
I can not unmount the sdcard prior to installing/updating apps, theres simply no option for that in the setting->storage.
Second solution is to delete a file called "smdl2tmp1.asec" from one of two paths, but that file is not there.
I attached the tablet to the PC, but just see the "sdcard", not the internal memory.
I have CM10, from this forum.
Hope anyone can help me... Slowly my apps are being killed of by this problem, swiftkey and officesuite pro tried to update today, and can not even be opened anymore since...
Thanks,
Jeroen
Not sure what tab you have, but dies it have an external sd card? Internal is probably the same as sd card. It is on the i957.
God promised men that he'd put beautiful women in all corners of the world. Then he laughed and laughed and made the world round
I have the samsung 8.9 wifi tab. No external sdcard I can take out, just one that shows up as sdcard under /mnt/.
The tab is not dying on me, justn some apps show mthe error on updating them.Then afterwards those apps are not just updated, they're gone completely. I tried deleteing all dirs that I could find that seems associated with them, but the error still exists, I still get that same error on installing the app.
Thanks for replying, hope this clears up my poor description of the problem
OK, I did a full wipe and flashed CM10 and gapps, but the problem still exist. Installing apps gives me this problem... Anyone an idea?
Maybe the internal sdcard or memory is simply broke? But if so, why would the system install without problems?
Aww, my loved tab 8.9....

for whoever this is going to be useful, it turned out to be a kernel issue. Some developer confirmed it for me. so I fixed it in the end by installing a stock rom, the problem kept returning with non stock Roms...
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.

Well, thank you for that suggestion. Well, since i already created a mount script with link2SD, is it alright if i just unsinstall it?

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

No Success.
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.
nice post :good:
link to CM11
heyy!!
can you give me the link of CM11 tht you have? and can you save accesspoint in that rom?
thank you!

hello there
i have the galaxy s3mini GT- 18190N
uk resident
carrier T-Mobile
android version 4.1.2
kernel version 3.0.31-1436784
ive had the phone for some time now and obviously internal space has became a problem so i looked around the net and it seemed that the first thing i must do was to root the phone....
i rooted with the main intention of being able to put my apps into my 32gb extsd card
secondly to perhaps upgrade the OS to say lollipop
thirdly to maybe try out some of these custom roms ive read so much about.
so i did root the phone using kingroot app, this seemed to help with the speed of the phone/reduced lagging and such but not with internal memory.
i then looked around for a solution and the general answer was to install link2sd and app2sd.
i installed both but had no joy due to no 2nd partition on sd card.
this led me to downloading rommanager (which apparently can create a 2nd partition on the etxSD) well this is when i realised my noobness knew no bounds, because for the life of me i cant seem to be able to do it lol
i looked around again and read as much as i could in regards to creating a 2nd partition on the extSD but again have not found a clear (complete and utter noob proof) guide to do this so am now stuck in limbo
ive read so much this last few days about flash/roms/internal sd/internal phone memory/external sd/nands/backups/backdowns/backflips ect. that i feel completely lost.
i understand this is probably a very tedious request to you more educated folk but what i would like to know is:
1 - can i return my phone to stock settings? (what it was like before i rooted) will this delete all the changes ive made and apps ive downloaded? and is this the best idea? to start all over again from scratch? if so how?
or can i download a custom rom that already has these settings? by settings i mean the ability to move my apps to the external SD? if so, how?
im really sorry for being a pain but my brains gonna explode.
please help
thank you
anyone that can help me please
I had your same problem twice. I just forgot to set the new partition "active".. Did you already check if the partition is primary and active?

hey thanks for the reply!
erm.... how would i do that exactly?
ive downloaded rom manager and tried to create a second partition using that, but that doesnt seem to work either?
i am close to just giving up to be honest, got a 32gb sd card and it just sitting there gathering dust while my internal memory is sucked dry of any space.

You can create and manage partitions with your pc, you just need an adaptor and than you can use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Free" that is a free partition manager tool! :good: Right click on the partition and then "set active" (both partition are primary, but one fs is EXT4 and the other one is Fat32, set active the ETX4 one) :good:
