Running out of space with 7.78 gb Available! - Moto X Q&A

Hello,
I have a problem with my moto X and I hope somebudy could help me. Today i installed the Pocket app and my phone turned off in the middle of the instalation process, after turning it self on again a notification saying my phone is running out of space, but when I enter the storage settings, the device show that I have 7.78 gb Available. I almost never keep files, music or photos on my phone, I always use dropbos, drive, google play music so I don't have any idea what happened; also, the phone it's acting like it doesn't have space, I cant install any apps and it is really slow. You can se the image of the storage settings attached. I'll appreciate any help or advice. Thank you.

[Solved] Media scanner stuck forever at 0%, Database memory error

Recently and suddenly, my media scanner seems to be very messed up. Whether triggered from a file manager, or simply booting, it never gets past 0% of the internal storage. After about 10 minutes, my user memory is completely full, and I start getting errors about the database being full, telling me to delete apps. I also can no longer receive any text messages when this happens due to the memory being full. If I go to the list of installed apps through the Settings menu and choose Media Storage, I see that it is using up almost 100MB of my ~130MB of user data. I can choose force close and then clear data, and the phone is back to normal (until the media scanner is triggered again).
I don't want to disable the media scanner, because I use stock apps that rely on it (such as Gallery). I've already scanned and checked my phone's memory for errors, as well as cleared cache/dalvik cache and factory reset. My ROM/kernel/etc. are in my signature.
I had a similar problem a little while ago and it turned out that a corupt video file that I had saved to my phone was causing the media scanner to be stuck at 0%.
Try removing any recent (or all) media files and see if that helps. Then all you have to do is figure out which one(s) was causing the problem.

You were spot on. There were 4 video files on my phone's memory that seemed to be causing the issue. Interestingly enough, I couldn't find anything wrong with the videos--they were standard DIVX 5.1 vids and they play fine on both my computer and phone (although the file needs to be opened through a file manager or player that doesn't rely on the media scanner). None of my other videos trigger this issue, so I guess I'm stuck with re-encoding these 4 and taking a quality hit, even though I wanted to avoid that.

Photos/Videos Disappeared after shutdown

I've notice that sometimes my photos/vĂ­deos disappear from my cellphone.
At first I noticed with media received from whatssapp and I thout it was an app issue and don't give to much attention to it.
Now I realized that recent media disappear, and then paying more attention I notice that they disappear just after my cellphone suddenly shutdown when running low battery.
Today I had a sad story, I was recording a trial, after that while using Waze my phone just shutdown without showing the logo information "shutting down". When I charged my phone and tryed to send the videos to people in the trial they do not appear. Searching for them I discovered the files still there, but the size now is 0 kB (and I watched some of them before the sudden shutdown)
So the question is, does anyone is facing the same issue? Is there a known solution? And the most important to me, does anyone know how to recover the videos?
Since Android does not appear anymore as a common removable card I can not use anymore tools like "miniTool Power Data Recovery".
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Google Play Services acting weird

hello guys,
my OP3T did serve me very well over the last couple years but now im facing some strange behaviours. im running android 11 via ArrowOS in the latest version.
so one day i randomly got a text saying that im about to reach my data limit which is weird, as i barely do anything with my device. i checked the setting and found out that my device downloaded almost 5 GB of a system update i was not aware of or even could find any info about (pic 1 + 2 + A). adding to that another 15 GB when hooked on the wifi. (pic 3),
although pic 7 shows the app having ACTUALLY downloaded only around 200 MB.
through the battery stats i found out that google play services appeard to be active 24/7 and sucking the battery dry, literally >> 99% ????
i cleared the cache of google play services already but completely deactivating is not an option as its linked to every other app there is.
any help you guys could offer? if possible without resetting the device or reflashing.
thx
I normally keep Google play Services disable unless I need it for Gmail or Playstore.
It's a trouble maker.
Google backup Transport runs as a dependency of it as well, that may be your culprit.
Since Pie Google Android has mutated into a even more fat big sister of a hog. Who needs that?!
i tried that but my phone keeps constantly buzzing then as it finds more and more apps that stopped working and i get notification after notification.
