[Q] Manually delete cache pls help

Just a quick question: how can I delete my cache files from youtube for example using root explorer? Because i've low memory and when I watch many films, youtube force closes. And when I go to manage applications and click on youtube it keeps ' counting' all the time!

I do not know the root explorer way...
but settings--applications---manage app---click on all apps---click youtube---clear cache!
Hope this Helps!

Like i said it just keeps on 'counting' I cant delete the cache.
That's why I asked for the root explorer way

Please tell me were my cache files are stored and how I delete a view if them (and wich ones I can delete). I just tried to clear my cache witch a cache clear app and it sais there's no cache!

Do you have CWM on your phone? You can go into Recovery Mode and delete the cache there.

i dont hav cwm yet. soon ill install g3mod... but the problem is: i dont want to reboot my phone because if i do it takes a very long time for my phone to scan my apps on my sdcard. and sometimes it doesnt scan them at all! its very frustating...

When I issue the mount command in the Terminal-App I see among others this partition:
/dev/block/stl8 mounted on /cache
Perhaps this is what you are looking for?

A reboot solved it. It took about half an hour to scan my apps... (I really need to format my sd...) But it worked quite...

i've done that =S and it didnt work

There must be a .dex file in /data/app named similar to the app you are trying to install. Delete it and reinstall it.

[Q] link2sd

No mount scrip
System cm10 build 6
Please help form this error
Swap 256
Sdext 1024 ext4

You have to clear up some space in the system. Oh and next time search first this has been asked and answered numerous times in both related threads. The whole solution is described there.
Swyped from my P509 on Tmobile.
With Swype and Flash, why would anyone choose the iPhone?

thanks for replying
it´s a clean installation, full wipe and wipe fo all partition, one by one... and try repair partition, and try creating partition and convert ext2 to ext3 and ext3 to ext4
I will find the solutions already published, but with the installation of other roms no problems, even with CM10 build 5

I use cwm 5.0.27 n it works.256 ext4 and 64 swap.

What?
Delete one unused app from the /system partition. You should be able to do so within Link2SD. Just filter the system apps and remove one (make sure that something doesn't rely on it!) If you don't use app E-Mail (not Gmail) you can remove it, only the E-mail and not the provider. That should work, I have done it this way too.

Hmm, Link2SD works but it won't work?
You need to delete some files in /system/ in order to create the mount script. Our system parition is too tall. So delete some files you don't need from system.
Example:
If you don't like E-Mail, delete Email.apk from /system/app/
And so on!
Recovery: That's normal! It isn't a problem, it's on every LG-P500!

Help needed to remove Xposed from 5.0

Xposed for Samsung Lollipop is out. But I am having trouble installing apps since I installed xposed so I decided to remove it. I restored the system partitioned with a backup I've made before the installation but looks like xposed isn't removed. I still getting "Optimising app" at every start up and I cannot install apps from Play Store. Many of users that installed xposed reported these.
I even tried to wipe system (not data) and flashing the rom I'm using on it again but xposed is still there. (Stil getting "optimising apps" and error "-504" from play store. ) What can I do to totally remove xposed without wiping data or restoring data partition?

How about this?? thanks to @craigcrawford1988
Did you try this ?Simply boot into TWRP, and mount system, then Advanced -> File Manager then do the following:1.Go into /system/bin/ and delete app_process32 and app_process32_xposed
2.Rename app_process32_original to app_process32
3.Delete dex2oat and rename dex2oat.orig to dex2oat
4.Repeat the above step for oatdump and patchoat
5.Go up a directory and then into the lib directory
6.Delete libart.so and rename libart.so.orig to libart.so
7.Repeat the above step for libart-compiler.so, libart-disassembler.so and libsigchain.so
8.Delete libxposed_art.so
9.Go up a directory and delete xposed.prop
10.Go into framework directory and delete XposedBridge.jar
11.Reboot your device.

Tried that too but that was for the "normal" official xposed alpha. The way the devs set xposed on samsung touchwiz is different. We flash a different version of xposed framework.
Many of the original files you listed I don't find it (almost all). I think the only way to totally remove it is a full wipe

well good luck with your problem bud , i tried Sorry we could not determine the issue.... Long weekend !

I tried this but I still can't install apps larger than 1mb. Apps that are smaller than 1mb installed perfectly. I don't get fc BTW. I got error -504 from play store. I Googled about it and the error is due to lack of space in /cache partition. I checked the partitions and proved it. Only 800kb free in cache partition but play store needs to download apks to cache before installing. Even restoring titanium backups made during xposed is installed to a clean installed rom can cause that. So I did a clean install without any backups restored.
I tried clearing cache before, it's emptied when I cleared it, but it fills up when optimising app and I don't think I can skip optimising app after clearing cache.

Try formatting system, data, cache then restore system and after first boot, restore data
If didnt work (this is impossible) that means you did the backup after installing xposed
Goodluck

Yes I was lazy I backed up after installing the apk before flashing the zip. So that backup is somehow unusable. I already did a fresh install .

Unable to reinstall one app, is original dir already in data/app?

Hi, I've a rooted Nexus 7 with crDroid rom, today I've installed Shazam but, I don't know why, after a reboot the app disappeared, apparently removed.
Now...
I tried to reinstall the app from PlayStore but a 506 error appear.
I also tried with an apk from apkmirror but a "no more space left" error appear and installation stopped.
I also tried to:
To remove cache and data from PlayStore, Playservice and Service framework. To Wipe dalvik and cache partition. To manually remove every folder and files related to Shazam.
No success in any vay.
The strange thing is that the original app folder "com.shazam.android-1" in data/app is missing from ES File Explorer but appear with an ls command from TWRP terminal. But if I try to make a dir with the same name, ES notify me the impossibility to doing this and if I use terminal the "no such file or directory" error appear.
How can I clean the system and reinstall Shazam without factory reset my Nexus 7?
Many Thanks!
