I have moved my market and browser cache to sd about 2 weeks ago and have not noticed any problems, yet reading here it seems to be causing problems for many others. Can anyone who is having those problems tell me what they are and how you get them? I want to make sure everything is running as smooth as it seems or put it back (ouch, id have to uninstall a lot of crap).
i moved all three caches (webview, market, and street) under jf modified rc 30, no issues. i flashed Dev Phone 1 and moved everything again. no issues.
i do not think the market cache has anything to do with uninstalling the apps. the cache, is just the display info before you install.
flashing - yes then you will have to reinstall the apps.
How do I move all market and browser cache to SD?
Moving all the market cache to SD also means that all installed applications will be installed on SD?

Hi all,
I am using capychimp ROM v2.0 based on Roger Eclair.
I have moved my app to SD card as I only have 60MB internal memory left.
But after I did that, I now cannot upgrade/install most of the app 'cause of "Insufficient storage" error.
I have 512MB ext3 and only move the app folder to SD. I follow the instruction here: http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/A2SD
Any1 has any ideas abt this
right, after 1 hour of searching I find out that I need to clear cache partition through fastboot, re-flash recovery image then clear dalvik cache also and reboot. Now my cache is 60% full, still a huge amount isn't it #:-S, but thanks God everything seems to be fine now, a bit laggy :-<
I know it's not the end of of the world, but it's bugging the $&#* out of me. I tried to load the seasons app and it would not install. Now I did have the non-add hacked version of the base app, so I thought "hey it might not like the cracked app so let me unload that" now none of them will install. What can I do to fix this.????

Try clearing your cache?
sent from 1.45 ghz cracked out 928DroidX
still no go
Cleared system cache and market cache. No luck.
anyone have any more ideas?
Do you have root+clockwork recovery? You can try clearing the cache partition and the Dalvik cache. I've got another idea as well. Might want to check if Angry Birds left behind some files on your SD card, or making sure the card isn't corrupt.
I have 500MB left and whenever I'm trying to update/install apps from the Play Story it gives me this error!
I tried clearing the dalvik-cache which is like 450MB but it force closes the whole system and apps!
After rebooting... the dalvik-cache is still there! I'm guessing that it's rewritten itself...
I think dalvik cache rewrites itself after it's wipe
That's Why it takes a long time to boot after dalvik wipe

Where do you have only 500mb left? Meaning /data/media or /cache (not /dalvik-cache).
Try going into Setting>Apps> Gallery, Playstore, video player, music player and wiping the Cache there. Gallery is a cache hog, so is Browser and Playstore.
Once you get that cleaned out, you should be able to download something from the market. I suggest Cache Cleaner NG. It is a cache cleaner that you can set to run everyday, week, month. I have mine set to run every morning before I wake up so my tablet is fresh and clean and ready to use.

I have 500MB left from 16GB (Internal Storage) and for some reason it's 300KB now!
I cleared all the cache from the recovery...

happened to me before. reflashed and it fixed. should have use root explorer to check which directory is used.
So now I have 400MB on the internal storage and I've cleared all the cache!
What should I do next?
The error is still there!
I can't even install apps to clean my system!

Clearing cache from recovery is not the same. Go into those apps and wipe them there.
Also, take look in /data/log and see if anything is in there. I just read about someone yesterday that had 11gb of useless entries in there. If there is anything in that file, just delete it (it isn't needed) and the set the permission to User-R and the rest blank and you would get those files anymore.
If all else fails, just delete something from your internal that you can replace later on from your PC (like some music or video) and that way you'll clear out some space to download a cleaner from the market.

Yeah... I checked all the apps and cache was deleted!
There's no "log" at all!
Also why would I need to delete something from my internal?
I deleted a lot from downloads...
Your internal and /data/media are the same thing. If you said that your internal is almost full and you are getting the error,....

I know!
But I deleted a lot of stuff! and now I have 400MB!
400MB should be enough to install an 800KB app!
Just trying to troubleshoot here man. Use a file explorer and look around to see if anything sticks out.
Might be time to do a factory reset and clean house (as a last resort) unless someone else has any ideas.
Good luck.
You need to have at least 512MB on your internal memory to be able to instal more programs. There is no fix for that.

This might be the answer...
I've deleted a lot of stuff and apps and now I have 1.2GB an I installed couple of apps successfully!
He is correct, 512 is the limit, you will also notice the system slows ALOT after this point, I like to use my MicroSD for alot of things for this reason.
Also glad I read the 'log' tip, I had a 600Mb log just sitting there. X.x
I get this insufficient space error when titanium backup runs a scheduled backup. I have 18gb free and when I manually do a backup it works like a charm. Odd behavior. Sorry, I don't have any suggestions; just wanted to let you know you are not alone.

I do use a 16GB microSD BUT the problem is that I have 10GB of apps/games! -_-
Try Apps2SD or a similar app.
I know for sure that the huge amounts of resource files used by games like Shadowgun and GTAIII can be stored on the MicroSD, freeing alot.

Probably /data is on the verge of running out of available inodes, do you have a lot of small files on it?

Search the forums, its been answered, there is a file in the system you need to delete..
Try sdmaid from market. It deletes tombstones, duplicate files, clears cache, etc.. . It's called sdmaid but mostly works cleaning the internal memory. Is only a couple of bucks for the pro.
It's /data/tombstones that above post referred to. Any root file manager will let you delete the folder contents manually.

Try the AutoKiller app from the android market, I'm using it and it works great. You can set it to free up the memory on custom intervals.
