I had 100MB used in the internal memory. Then I uninstalled Bloons TD5 from my SD card (It was linked). I tried installing Bloons TD5 with an apk again, but it kept saying "Unable to install BTD5, free up some space". It didn't get installed, but the internal memory became 164MB used. I cleared the cache but still no luck. What happened?

It also happens sometimes with me...
In such case I wipe all cache and dalvik cache and then reboot.......
You can use command su and then sclean in terminal emulator.........

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 :-<
Hi. Is it normal to have only around 20 mb of free internal storage with 16 apps (each is about 1 mb with cache included) installed (and about 100 on sd)? I've noticed that when I install and then uninstall an app there is less memory than before installing. Are there some temporary files which I must remove???
bump, this is important, please help...
USe ext partition.. means partition your sd and your file will go to sd partition. I have 200apps which is 500mb+, I have 91mb internal storage left.
(Partition work for rooted phone only)

Hi all sorry for a long story, but I may explain how I had dealed with darktemor a2sd script. My be some of you will find it helpfull.
After few(about 5) rom reinstalls I finally managed to get a fast application gready?(87 apps installed) Phone. Every lost attempt reached me some new leasson. I just want to share my successful install with you all.
Started with clean install of #177 cm7, buzz kernal 2.6.32, 3.35.20.10 radio( after formatting data,ext, system, and every thing else but not SD primary partition formatting ), SD speed increase script(4068), Jews ram script, a2sd beta3 script. Then booted the device.
Started terminal, typed "a2sd datasd "( experimental feature in a2sd script) - moves data to ext partition of SD. I've got 512mb ext3, 32mb swap. Then rebooted.
Again to terminal, typed "a2sd reswap" -use swap partition from SD. Then typed "a2sd swappy75 "- set swappiness value to 75. Actually I don't know much about it. But done it coz I have a swap partition in my SD. . Rebooted again.
Again to terminal typed "a2sd heapsize48"- make dalvic heap 48 MB. Is it nice to have larger heap?? . Reboot.
Again to terminal typed "a2sd zipalign "- zipalign ext contents every time you boot the device. Rebooted.
Installed titanium backup, restored the backups of app I have.( 87 apks) . Connected to net, updated every thing. Rebooted to recovery.
Wiped cache and dalvic cache. Rebooted. Viola I have never seen my phone as fast as this. With about 87 apks! Still my phone memory is.
Internal- 99mb free
SD ext - 226mb free/ 480mb total
Cache - 38mb free/ 40 MB total.
Ram - 136 MB free( at the time. Some apps are running in background)
Swap - 109 MB free / 114 MB total?? Dnt know why, but I think I have 32 MB swap when I partitioned my SD.
Total free- 233 mb free/434 MB total.
All the above readings are taken from a2sd GUI in my phone.
What I haven't done.
Never moved dalvic cache to SD as it made my phone lot slower when I've experimented with previous installs.
Never used a2sd GUI to do any of the a2sd commands. All done using terminal. As commands like "datasd " are not available in it.
Never moved a single app using internal app moving feature of cm7, nor used app2sd, link2sd or some thing else.
Never changed install location in cm7 app settings tab. Nor ticked allow app moving.
How do I installed backups.
All backups are installed after I prepared the phone and SD. Ie after execution of the above said a2sd commands. None of the commands are executed after installation. As my experimental installations resulted in lost of apps, when I executed a2sd scripts ( not all, but atlest few).
Titanium backup showed a force close error when I tried for batch operation. Although I have latest pro version. So I do manual back up. Some apks with data, some apk only. Later I will check with some other version of titanium backup.
I never use any apk moving program, let all be in the hands of cm7#177 and dta2sd beta3. Thanks to creators .
I have given a fix permission after I installed the backup from cwm recovery. Hoping to avoid force closes.
Every thing went ok for now. I am posting this as soon as I had done the above. I will check with some
more installations and usages in the comming days. And surely will report if I found bugs/ hangs etc.
So I hope u will help me. And also my post may help some of you. Thank u all xda members.

Found first error...
Phone takes a long time to boot if cache and dalvic cache are wiped. Just about 10 min. But every thing is fast after boot.

Its not an error. When you wipe the Dalvik Cache, the phone has to rebuild it at boot, so, its a totally normal thing. (And precisely why new ROMs take a long time to boot)
ya i know it and have experienced it several times. same rom too. but it is not the same now. usualy got 5-6 min. but since i had done the above a2sd work it takes 5-6 more to boot. ie a total of 10+ min. may be due to the reason that data had moved to sd. and a slow read/ write speed may cause the problem. but mine is 8gb class4 card. class4 may be enough?? also zipalign is also enabled.
hence i think..
rebuilding dalvic cache+ slow read/write speed+ zipalign+ initiations = slow startup.

I just updated to a new build, but when I try installing apps, it says out of space even though I have over 600MB internal and 2GB external. I think I have to delete some system files but am not sure
Installing or recovering thm via Titanium?
Installing with the apk, right after the boot up.
Are the over 600MB internal the free or the total space?
That's the free
Try wiping cache and dalvik cache.

When this happens to me, i just tell it again.. Usually works on 2nd, occasionally 3rd try.. Then its back to normal.

@Keghan
the solutions could be:
unmount and remount the cache and data directory
fix permissions
wipe the cache and the dalvik-cache
clear the data of the playstore

Is it also true that you can remove the odex files for that particular app in /data? I remember seeing something about that in the recent posts for the Epsylon3 ICS Dev thread.
I scanned through the Dev forum and found out that by
Deleting the tombstone folder in Data and
deleting the odex of that file in data/app folder works
Even though all my internal apps are liked with the 3 options (app, dalvik and lib) but still the /data or internal mem is still getting filled until it says insufficient memory and the 2nd partition still has plenty of space. How to fix this?

try to refresh by clearing memory at task manager
Get into link2sd
Press the menu touch responsive key
In the small menu that comes up
Select "more"
A pop up shows up
Scroll down till u see options that say
"clean 2nd partition"
"clean dalvik cache"
"clean app cache"
Use all three options and u might free about sum MB...from ur memory
