Try clearing the cache from the storage option, if that does not work try installing ccleanr and running that. usually apps leave out cache memory even after uninstalling them..

(Help) Insufficient Storage Error!

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?

[Q] Internal memory full after using Google Drive

Hello. I have a U8000 with Aurora 4.0.
I tried to upload a file with 700MB to Google Drive when my smartphone crashed. I restarted it releasing the battery.
When it turned on, the internal memory for applications was almost full. I had to unnistal some applications to free space.
Probably the Google Drive uses the internal memory as cache before uploading the files. I already searched for some big file without luck.
Anyone can tell me the location of the Google Drive cache files?
Thanks in advance.
Idk where it may use but u can clear cache in programs. Or simply use app2sd (needs root).

Ty.
I forgot to say that i already cleared the normal app cache, and unnistalled Drive, but the free space still the same.
The file must be somewhere, but i dont find it.

Try something like:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...mNvbS5sZXZlbG9rbWVudC5zdG9yYWdlYW5hbHlzZXIiXQ..
If you don't have enough space to install it, uninstall some apps first...

[Q] insufficient storage available

I don't know if this has been asked before here...
Every time I try to install an app it gives me an insufficient storage available error.
In settings it shows that i have well over 2gig free space. I have tried wiping cache dalvik etc and nothing has worked. Please help!

Your system partition is full. You need to delete apps and whatever else gets stored in system folder. If you use titanium backup....I think it keeps backups of old apps....you gotta go into titanium backup and delete the backups of apps you use. Some large games may store data in system too.

clear cache and delvik cache - also look for an app that has a large ammount of data and clear its data (doing this will wipe any settings the app has though)
iv installed loads of apps and never run out of room using link2sd

use link2sd to order your apps by data size then you can see
you should have about 30mb free internel storage available at all times to be able to install new apps
right now I have 77 apps available to launch from my launcher and I have 48.8mb free but I could get that higher if I cleaned my cached images of twitter
Use "Quick reboot" in Link2sd

thanks i have done some cleaning and end up with 60 mb free
what does this mean "use link2sd to order your apps by data size"

insufficient space but plenty of space

Can someone tell me what's going on? I have plenty of system space and SD space but everytime I try to update any app, I get insufficient storage available. I've cleaned the cache and deleted many apps but still this remains. I even cleared Google Play Store and the data.
Never had this happen before where I couldn't fix it.
Note, this happens when I try to update or install an app from Google Play or if I try to sideload any app
Did you force "install app to sdcard directly"?
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
Install SdMaid Pro app from Play Store.. Then clean your system.
P.s. YOU NEED ROOT ACCESS
I didn't force install or side load. I have root and my system is clean. I cleared almost all caches and cleared data and cache from play store. I even cleared the dalvik cache.

Take a look if the apps are in APPLICATION MANAGER -> SD CARD and are moved to the SD CARD.
SOLUTION
1) You can make a test. Take out the SD CARD and try to update one of that apps. Go to point 2 if works and you don't get any message.
2) I had same problem. My solution was change the SD CARD coz was faulty. Good luck :highfive:

Hi
i already had this problem on my old s2 because i patched the apps with lucky patcher to remove the adds.
Lucky patcher install an odex file in the system, and this causes the problem.
If you can unpatch the apps you want to update via lucky patcher, do it. (Or maybe remove manually the odex file via an explorer)
As i didn't need to keep the datas for the apps, my solution was to uninstall the apps i wanted to update, launch lucky patcher so that it removes automatically the odex file, and reinstall the app via google play ...
