this is annoying - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This may seem very childish but my phone is really annoying me right now. I'm trying to change a few of my profile pic from different social website and including here in XDA and it all keeps saying unable to complete operation due to low memory. Anyway I could fix this?I'm not rooted . so any complex solutions is not possible. Any advice?

Total = 25.xx available = 19.xx
And the memory is always at 48% .
I'm using one of the optimizer from google play. And that's what is says .

Are you doing these actions in chrome? If so, go into settings>privacy>clear browsing data.

Yes and it still does it. I already cleared the browsing history data. And I just noticed the browsing data is not under settings >privacy its separated

Try settings>apps>chrome>clear cache and data. You will have to log into chrome again but see if that works.

Get rid of the optimizer from the Google play store. It's not optimizing anything more than likely.

apps to monitor data usage

Hi all,
Is there any apps that can be used as monitoring the data usage of each application? i.e. google map using how many kb, Meebo IM using how many kb, etc etc..
thanks first.

I use 3G Watchdog, but it's only overall summary, but not per application (as I guess you'd like)

Thanks a lot. I also use that but yeah, i'd like it by applications.
but anyway thanks for the input.
May be we can call for Spb to port their applications to Android very soon.

It would be a great idea.
because, there are always some background data transfer but I never know which apps are doing that. It is especially important for users like me who do not have unlimited data plan.
there is also netcounter .
Ultra thanks for the info on NetCounter. From a glance it's nice app. With beautiful UI too.
EDIT: Sorry for the double post :-(
Don't mention it , anyway there is also APNdroid which prevents your mobile from accessing the network .

Thanks for the tips.
Yeah, I also have the APNdroid to shut down the mobile internet.
However, my thought was to monitor the data usage by "applications" so that I know which application is going what and the Netcounter only monitor the data usage by "Wifi" or by "mobile internet 3G".
I don't really need per application usage, thus NetCounter is good enough.
I love to see NetCounter to expand its functionality to optionally monitors applications' usage too.
You can also use droidwall to block an individual application's internet access. I do not have an unlimited plan too, and to me this works better than monitoring each application.

Hi Schi,
Did you ever have any luck finding an app for this? I'm looking for the same thing as something on my phone is downloading about 500mb a day and I haven't a clue what! It only started about a week ago

exactly, I have similar problem but not as much as yours.
but this kind of app is really necessary but yet no one developed it, at least i haven't found out.
please look out together and let me know if you find something like that.
Using droidwall I've narrowed (I picked it early, it kinda stood out ) the culprit down to application 10019:Camera, Media Storage, Download Manager, DRM Protected Content Storage.
So I've now got droidwall blocking that app for 3G and allowing it on wifi and I just turn on wifi when I need download stuff that requires that app.
I've been searching for this too and finally found something. There's a paid app called "Network Statistics" that does per-app data since phone startup. It's 50p.
However it won't start on my Milestone (2.1, rooted) so... Well at 50p you can give it a try I guess.
Cheers, I'll give it a go.

[SOLVED] Get Rid of "Internal storage is 75% full."

I have searched around but not found a solution to when this situation is actaully valid and the system is reporting corectly.
I constantly get this notification. I have about 1.5gb free which is more than enough for me to not have to worry for a while.
How do I get rid of this notification and stop it comming up without deleting videos/games(shouldnt have to be deleting stuff when i still have 1.5gb free), or even can I change it to come up when i reach 90 or 95% full?
Thanks
There is a possibility to delete this but I've heard this break another thing which is pretty important to our phones.

Because I know how much data I have on it. I have gone through it with a fine tooth comb over the last week or soo, culling any residual data left by old apps, clearing cahced files from the the likes of dropbox etc. And if it does free up an extra gig or so to get rid of the notification it this will only be temporary until I take a few more photos/videos and it will re-appear. I dont see the point in the space if I can not use the last 2.5gb of space unless I put up with an irritating notification.
SOLVED IT
Settings -> Apps -> All -> Memory
Unticked show notifications. BOOM gone.
Shame same solution doesnt work for the mobile data notification.

hmm, ok, I had this problem once a well and when I checked into it I was using less than 10% of the available memory. my method solved the problem of the wrong notification.
I thought you had the same problem as me.

Yeh all the solution I could find on here were people complaining about it who only had small amounts of data in their internal memory. My issue was the fact I had actually exceeded the 75% as stated in my original post. I dont see why this is not configurable. I see the point to it just not for me, 25% of our storage space is still quite a bit of storage and not really something to worry about unless you are recording huge videos. 95% which is a little over 500mb left would seem more logical to me personally.
keep ur finger on that notification till u enter the details
uncheck the show notifications
no need to delete any thing
Hey,
If you use "Elixir 2" and go to Apps, choose "system apps", and find the app "phone" or "dealer" (I think) ... when you go to its "details" you can shut that mobile data notif off. just find the right one to disable.

Xperia V on JB 4.1.2, stock fw 9.1.A.1.140.
I got it. I only just realized that "Memory" is an app... Duh!

How to do that on my L90.

Hi,
I want to show you something. This is a screenshot from my brothers phone. As you can see most of apps have only running services without any processes and those apps are working pretty well. His phone has tons of free, unused RAM, cause background apps doesn't eat all the memory doing nothing.
How I can get that on my phone ? Any ideas ?
Solution is simple: ask your brother what he did and post his reply....

He did nothing. His phone is somehow set this way.
Maybe he has different low memory killer settings?
what kind of phone does he has?
this is mine

Data Usage

Since lollipop update I used all my data in one day. I thought it was turned off as I only use it when I go out.

Hi I use wifi 90% of the time so only switch data on when I go out. I thought having that switched of meant it could not use that
I have put 8.17mb and I have put background data restricted.
Is there no way to stop downloads while using mobile data like there used to be

I dont have one its a prepaid phone hence why I cant use a lot. all I know is 10mb a day is too much
youtube and skype
I have a prepaid phone too, I get 1 GB per month for $10.00
Any app can easily send you over 10 MB... it's not even related to data background...
If you show us your data usage then we can give some comments.. if you don't show it then don't post back here

Here in the UK with prepaid phones the typical amount you get is 300-500mb.
If you go into setting and data usage here you should be able to manage what apps get data sent back and forth or if you click the 3 dots at the top next to the search you can restrict all background data, not sure if this is what you wanted but as far as I am aware this is the only way.

thank you for your help. The data restriction is fine but i need to have skype on in case someone needs to contact me. will that still work with the restriction on? Also the triangle notification warning is a pain

You can restrict individual apps, so I supposed you can either restrict all then remove Skype or restrict only the ones you want.
thanks I will try that

Annoying Pop-up

Has anyone else seen this? I've gotten it to pop up 5 times or so since I've owned this phone and I have no clue what app it could be. I have the same apps on this phone that I always have on my phones and the only difference is now I don't have Adaway. I'm assuming it's something that I just never saw before due to it being blocked. Am I the only one with this? It opens in Samsung Browser. At the time, I was in TheScore app looking at baseball scores...
Sorry, here's the picture:
It's definitely not a legit system message. If it's only popping up in the browser try going into settings / apps and clearing all data for the browser you're using.

Interestingly, here's what happens when I directly try to go to the URL listed in my first screenshot.
By any chance does it pop up everytime you unlock the phone or is it random?
It looks like a trojan or Malware to me!
It may be too late but I would NOT click to Fix Now button
I tried to look it up but do not see any direct hits for the exact wording
That's a SPAM ad. It's probably coming from an app or website you're on. Those are extremely common on tv streaming sites and file locker/file sharing sites. If you click on it it will take you to a site that will offer to "clean" your phone for you for a fee or subscription.

What these two guys said. I've had that crap pop up through Facebook vids I've watched and from links sent to me via Messenger. Don't click on anything, just back out!
clear your cache and check your apps list..uninstall fishy looking apps....
It is just an advert, various apps and website use a pool of adverts and occasionally it gives you one of those annoying fake system message ones, the worst once constantly vibrate your phone too - there is not much you can do other than close the tab and try again.
