Insufficient Storage Available.. - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I've been browsing around simply everywhere trying to find a fix to my issue but haven't been able to so I thought I might post on here to see if I could get some help.
Simply put, I downloaded luckypatcher a fair while ago and tried removing some adverts as well as trying to apply a patch to an application I got, in doing so I believe I may have screwed my phone up because now I can't install updates from most of my applications and some applications cannot be installed at all and I'm basically screwed with no fix at all for myself. Along with that I have 1.8 gigs of free space left so it can't be the issue of storage and I've already tried looking in the data/app-libs folder through root explorer but there isn't one nor any odex files of any sorts, also tried fixing it through lucky patcher to by fixing the permissions in the troubleshoot menu to no avail.. any ideas?
Thanks! -zeksta

[Q] Mynet.apk problems

*Update*
n00b 1 - mynet.apk 0
Maybe I can help some other folks with what I have found out today.
The problem I was running into is that I was downloading the wrong mynet.apk from chadhaney.com
I was needing the .516 files not the .604 files that are listed on that page. Go to the top left of the page and look for the "Get 1.113.516 default files here"
Give it a try and maybe it will fix your 3G Mobile Hotspot problem too.
Hello all.
I am a total n00b to this whole rooting deal. I had been waiting for an extremely easy way to root. I found z4root for download on the market and boom I was rooted. So I immediately went to removing crapware. THEN I decided to do some reading after I removed the stuff and decided to reinstall and rename.
I had zero trouble with anything except mynet.apk.
I have downloaded it from a couple of different places, no dice.
So I am hoping that someone would be nice and kind enough to help a dumbazz noob out with a complete walk-thru of how to reinstall this to my phone, I will beg if that is what it takes.
Thanks,
Brent

just put it in the system/app folder. use Root Explorer app to make sure the permissions are the same as your other apk's. then reboot phone.
here a link to the stock droid x apk's http://www.chadhaney.com/droidXDefault/
I still have yet to try to fix this problem past what I first tried.
My question now is what makes mynet.apk any different than the blockbuster.apk? Why the permissions need to be changed for this and none of the others.

you might not need to. i just mentioned it to make sure.
With the other apk's I just put them on my sdcard and used astro and it very simply installed with no trouble. Mynet.apk goes thru the same process but ends with it saying ''application not installed''
Ok I broke down and bought root explorer. I placed the apk in the system/app folder and changed the permissions to match up exactly with the other apk's.
But I still can not get this to install. What to try next?

[Q] error insufficient storage on one app (not others)

Hey everyone I installed smart app protector and wanted to get rid of the ads so I used lucky patcher. Then I decided I just wanted to use ad block, so I uninstalled the app and tried to reinstall to get it back to the original. Well when I try to reinstall it it gives me the space error. I can install any other app but this one. I tried clearing data on play and services, clearing all cache, and tried installing from the actual play website. I haven't tried side loading it yet as I couldn't find a download. I also tried re-flashing the stock ROM but I didn't clear my user data. That obviously also unrooted my tablet. Anyways any suggestions?
Edit I have 3 GB of free data and I tried side loading, same error. Anyways something had to of got messed up in the file system related to this app.. Maybe some sort of left over file or something? When using lucky patcher I noticed it said something about odex file? Maybe it left an odex file or something?
Try:
Rescan SD
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS51YmVydWxsdS5yZXNjYW5zZCJd
Not exactly sure what that's sposed to do but I installed it opened it then tried installing the app lock and still gives me the error. By the way I forgot to mention I have 3 GB free data.
Ok, next thing to try:
Delete all browser history/data/cache.
Empty your downloads folder, use a file explorer and not the actual downloads app.
Also delete all files/folders relating to AdBlock that you can personally find.
Also Clear Data/Cache etc from GooglePlay and Play Services.
Reboot.
Re-download
Install.
Let me know how you get on
Hey I got it fixed. I got a lucky patcher update and when I opened it it said removing unused odex file, then I was able to install it again..
Something to consider about apps which are designed specifically to assist in the defrauding of others:
if the developer has no regard or consideration for other developers, it is a certainty that they will have the same disregard for you.
And you gave them root on your device; good luck with how that all turns out.
RE: error insufficient storage on one app (not others)
Remove odex file that app from root/data/app...
The file will be named like "com.appName...-1.odex".
OR
Just run lucky patcher..

Can't install apps, out of space message but over 500 MB free.

So i have this strange problem any app that I try to install from Google Play or manually .apk i get "Out of space" message and I have 514Mb free and the app i try to install has 20mb. As it seems is a pretty common problem, but none of the fixes i found worked...
What i've tried:
1. Delete .obex files from /data/app or system/app. There is no .obex file in them.
2. Cleared cache.
3. Cleared dalvik-cache.
4. Luky patcher fixes under "troubleshooting"
5. Delete titanium backup.
None of them worked... I have the 8gb vs and 500mb are very useful...
Only solution is to free up more space...

free some space, get rid of your illegally obtained apps that you used lucky patcher on.
you cant install any apps that will take you under 500mb free space. its not an issue, its how it works. there is a reason for this. your phone needs space foe caches, or it will not run properly. also, you will notice that if you do go below, you will not be able to conbect to googles service, and your blue bars will go gray.
plus, why are you using lucky patcher? you do realize that its frowned upon? plus, it comes from a not very safe russian hacker/site.. you do realize that almost every android virus comes from that area. i cant even imagine what viruses are included in lucky patcher. maybe its even a virus affecting you.

I installed lucky patcher strictly for this problem, as I found in other threads here, in which it was mentioned that it may help with this storage issue.
500 mb limit seems to much... On my old Optimus 2x it was at 100mb and on Optimus one on 20 or 50mb.
If this is the case, is there a way to modify this 500mb limit?

then i apologize.
all my other devices it was at 100mb too, except my gnex which is at 300mb. but seriously about lucky patcher, it is probably one of the most susceptible apps for virus attack.
i dont know of any way to change this limit.
i cant get past this limit too, under 500mb it will notify me, cant install apps, but can use that space for other files.

Hi, i am having this problem on MT65xx phone, the storage is showing only 17mb when connecting to PC and i cannot install any apps, let a lone external ones meant to solve the problem.. can anyone please help ??!
Is there way to remove this limit?
Sorry for digging old'ish topic. Im yet another user that is really annoyed with 500 mb limit.
Seriously I need some fix for that. anything that could work, as far as nandroid is enough to make back secure is acceptable. have xposed and so on.
I found quick workaround for installing apps, which may help, usually works. (a tiny bit, but still something!)
requires root
-get the apk file. I personally use google if aptoide fails (its somewhere in the aptoide files on /storage/emulated/0 or any other internal storage path you have.
-get root explorer or any other file manager that is able to broswe the whole android file system
-go to /data/app/ and drop there your APK file. I personally allways change its name to actual package name but honestly I dont know if thats requirement.
-change permissions to rw-r--r-- (no specials, in numbers 644)
-perform reboot
-your app is installed and ready to use.

[Q] insufficient storage available CM11

hello,
I am having this problem since a week now on my Galaxy S4 I9505 with CM11 rom. When I try to install a new app from the playstore or when I try to update an app, I get this insufficient storage available error. but when I go and look how much space there is available. I see there is more then 5GB+ available in the internal storage. I read a lot about it in several topics and forums and I tried all solutions and nothing worked. I tried emptying my cache, updated the rom to the latest nightly build, emptying dalvik-cache. can somebody help with this problem. its driving me crazy
any help would be appreciated

Hi mate
Is a playstore error
1 Delete the app that is giving you problems at /data/app-lib
2 If the problem continues delete the app at /data/data
3 If problem continues delete also the app at /data/app
You may lose the settings of the app , backup app before you do anything
hello,
thank you for your very fast reply. but the problem does not only persist on apps that need updates but also on new apps I never installed before. so the app doenst have any folder in one of the locations you mentioned. and let me give you another example. I downloaded xbmc apk manually en tried to install it manually and it gave me a similar error like in the play store.

Hi
But what about the ones that need update , did you delete the folders of those to see if it helps?
Also clear data and cache from google play framework
Do you use ROM Manager to create Nandroid backups? Or ClockworkMod Recovery in general?
If so you may very well have your nandroid backup tacking up all that space.
ROM Manager defaults to save your backups in the internal storage and then hides the files so they can't be accidentally deleted.
This results in the file manager showing available space that really isn't available.
Delete the old nandroids or move them to the external SD card to make room.

What apps can I safely move or remove?

Let me start by saying I am a new user (and, trying to be a responsible one...). I have spent several hours reading threads, etc., but I think I'm a little overwhelmed. I'm not totally sure where to start. Hopefully, I can get a little guidance to point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Here's my situation. My Nexus had become unusable, taking up to 30 seconds to respond to a touch. After considerable research, and realizing it was no longer supported, I decided root it and improve performance.
Recently, I added back one of the apps that I had purchased, only to find it was the free (restricted) version. After more searching, I decided to install a modded Google Play Store. It will not transfer to the sys partition. Apparently, because there is too little space there. Apps2Rom is reporting 7.04 MB free space. I have managed to get it to run, but it gives an error message saying "No internet connection", even though I am able to use my browser.
So, I am trying to delete unneeded apps from the sys partition, or move them to the SD partition. How do I know which ones can I safely move or delete? I have installed very few apps since I rooted it. Most of the ones listed came with the root installation. And, can I delete the odex files?
Here is my configuration:
Nexus 7 (2012) Wifi, Grouper.
Android 4.4.4
Kernel 3.1.10
Rooted A few weeks ago, I rooted my Nexus using TWRP.
Tools installed:
SuperSU
Root Explorer
ES File Explorer
Lucky Patcher
Freedom
Apps2Rom
I'd appreciate any leads or guidance. Thanks!
