I am getting an insufficient resources available when I try to transfer information over to USB storage on my S. I checked and it's showing that I have 7 gigs left. Am I doing something wrong?
that seems very weird. i have yet to hear about something of this sort.. this isnt vent helpful but just to show that people care and read your problem! hopefully some one more knowledgeable comes to your rescue.
happy holidays
I know that sometimes my storage info does not update right away (had the same issue with Nexus 1.) I don't know if it is related to the file system management or just the way the OS tracks storage usage but you may actually have less storage than your device is saying you do. Try going to your memory card via astro or any other file manager and delete the trash file and then reboot. I did this last night and my memory usage corrected itself. Hope this works.
thanks for the quick repsonses guys. Astro is showing that I have 7.19 gigs free. So strange.
Just rebooted for the second time and that worked. Thanks guys
How about you try backing up all the important stuffs and reformat if thats even possible.
Are you running stock or a custom boot.img? I noticed on custom boot.img's I was getting insufficient storage errors... I haven't seen a single one since being on stock 2.3.1 rooted.
Hi all i'm fairly new to the xda forums but I just recently had a strange occurrence happen on my S4 that I was hoping someone could help me resolve or at the very least explain it to me.
Ok well I have the sprint galaxy s4 with a 32 gb external SD card if i'm not mistaken. Well I enjoy downloading videos and files to my phone instead of using the internet to watch them because I get bad service where I work. So it's much more convenient to just download them beforehand and watch with no buffering.
Well after awhile of doing this I downloaded androzip file manager so i could rearrange my files so I knew exactly what was on my phone. Well as of yesterday my total space on my device was 16GB and my available space was around 7.2gb. My SD card as i said was about 32 or so and my available space was around 14 to 15GB.
Well I went to try to download a 4 and a half long video in high quality and it all of a sudden said that my memory was full. As far as i knw this video was about 4 gb or so...which should have fit on my device or SD card. Well after finding this unfinished download then deleting it I decided to try to free up some space on my phone to hopefully have more room. Well I googled it and alot of people said an app called SHREDroid was the way to go and that it would completely erase files that I had previously deleted so it wouldnt take up unnecessary space on my phone. Well i used it on my internal and external memory and now my storage looks really funny. My available space on my device is somewhat normal at 7.82 GB. But my SD card is just strange. I havent downloaded anything else and it went from that 14 or 15 GB down to 2.82GB.
How in the world could this have happened. I have nothing new in my external card as far as i know. Can anyone please help me with this?
Sorry for the long post i just wanted to be clear and concise. Please feel free to tell me any details i may have left out
Thanks everyone!
Lots of reports of bad SD cards, so that's a real possibility here.
But what I'd do is backup everything on the SD card to a PC. Then I'd format the SD card (Settings>More>Storage - Scroll to the bottom). Then copy everything back onto the card from the PC and see if that fixes it.
Is your sd card formatted to FAT 32?

My phone has been constantly rebooting, unexpectedly removed sd card error message and constant touch wiz has stopped working errors... And now I seem to an internal storage problem, I had hardly any space left because it said I had so much on pics but I didn't because I put them on to my sd card so I done a factory reset then my internal space was fine however since then my picture space has gone from 45mb to 499mb even though I haven't taken any pics and there's no pics on the internal storage to warrant the 499mb of pics it's telling me I have
Anyone help? I'm running the latest stock 4.3

So my phone started complaining about low storage space, and I checked AppMgr III, found a few I hadn't moved yet. Moved them over and...no change.
I checked in Settings and the apps all claim they're on external storage. Every app that I put on external storage says it's on external storage. Both the Storage settings screen and DiskUsage, however, say they are all on internal storage.
I have a 64gb SD card which only has 3gb of pictures on it, no apps. So uh...why is my phone claiming all these apps are on "external storage" when they're not, and how can I fix it? I am not rooted, but didn't think I needed to be...
Hello,
I just purchased a 64gb micro sd (samsung evo plus) card and inserted it into A1; formatted it as permanent storage, and now it shows as 128gb with half space used with system files. Tried reformatting on the laptop and doing it again in the phone, same result. As far as i can tell, it still works (still 64gb free), but it is annoying as it shows system is using half, so you dont have the real numbers.
I tried googling, found similar problems (a year ago), but no follow up how/if this is resolved. Im running latest 8.1 (november patch).
Any help / ideas?
thanks,
Jaka
After formatting you need to select an SD card as an external memory and then you will have a real state
All of this is done in the seting> memory setting
permanent storage is an extension of internal storage so all correct.
Thanks for clarifying. What is the difference between permanent/removable storage in terms of what the phone can store on it? My phone is full and need the extra space for pictures, cache (streaming apps burn a lot) and, if the card is good enough, apps.
thanks guys, always appreciate the support here on XDA!

I don't' like an SD as an extension of internal memory, it becomes non removable and if it gets corrupted can cause serious problems with apps crashing. It also needs to be as fast as possible.
I would rather have it set as external/removable, you can still store all your media (music photo video etc) on it but it remains removable and the system does not reply on it.
Hey guys, a bit of an update.. Today a got a notification that i am running out of space, a few days after I have inserted a fresh 64 gig card (first post), but now take a look at these screenshots .. In a few days, my whole storage shows as 100% full, just with system files .. ?
I also do not see this extra space in root explorer (where can I?)
Can someone help with this issue? What is going on here?
Cheers,
Jaka
