Titanium backup account suspended

Hi. I've been getting the insufficient storage' crap when trying to backup updated apps and have tried dalvik wipe, un install and reinstall of both app and pro key ect but problem persists. If I try to view the wiki or change log page I get 'account suspended' message. Sucks in short.
Anyone else having or had this problem? Any solutions?
Thanks.

As far as the insufficient storage, that sounds like you have your phone's memory all but filled up. Check in settings. Doubt wiping dalvik will really clear up that much room. If it is space, delete some Movies, music, and or pictures.
Edit: I just checked before and after dalvik wipe and the free space on the phone is the same. Which makes sense, since the dalvik cache will rebuild upon first boot.
Still have 8.5gig space. Strange as was running 4.04 after flashing the zip over 4.02 n had no problem. Flashed factory image of 4.04 today n now its a problem? Either way the "account suspended" thing really doesn't make sense

Delete your old nandroid and titanium backups or move them to your computer. Then curse whoever was in charge of how much storage space the GSM model received.

With around 90 gig of music on Google music, instant upload and the last four or so years worth of pics on Google photo/picasa, a good quarter of my library on Google books and a film or two for "just in case" viewing on my phone memory along with 62 apps including games like gta3 and shadowgun I still have over 8gig free... yes more space is better than less but in this case it hardly matters anyway, its sorted now so thanks so much for all the constructive assistance, maybe I can repay the favor one day

Free space warning. Does not add up

Hello all. I have recently started receiving low storage warnings even though bit appears I have plenty of space with both internal and external memory.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks

I don't know what is going on, but that image shows you only have 401 MB available.
Something is chewing up your storage space or at least making your phone think it is almost gone.
Do you have a bunch of nandroid backup's saved to your internal drive or something?

Yeah, I'm thinking you have either a lot of zips or you have nandroids on there that are taking up space. Check out
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage
It will give you a visual display of the folders that are using the most space and what files are the culprits.

Thank you both your recommendations I used the supplied app and solid explorer and I was able to find several gigs of picasa 3d gallery cache files and similar situations with ROM Manager "blobs" seems to be resolved now.
Wonder why it occurred in the first place..odd
Thanks

I agree that it likely has something to do with those backups. I downloaded the app but can't seem to figure out where space is being taken up. I transfer all my backups to my external sd, but don't know what the hell is taking my space up.

Those 'blobs' are where CWM stores its backup files from what i've read, personally i use TWRP so i can't confirm this.

+1 twrp. Im a former cwm touch user absolutely hated the .92gb backups from cwm. Now I can have multiple backups on hand without sacrificing storage space.

I had the same problem, I re flashed cm10 4 times and still only had about 500mb of available space on my internal
turns out when you select "wipe/factory reset" on CWM Recovery it doesn't actually delete everything..
DiskUsage was the perfect tool for the job, there was 6 gigs of leftover gameloft stuff on the phone, removed the files and now im a happy camper with plenty of free space!

Insufficient Storage Space

Hi all! I am a long time infuse user who finally made the switch to the note 2 and I am loving it so far. I decided to make the jump from stock and I am currently on Jedi ROM 6.1.2. Everything has been working fantastically so far, and I have been using Perseus Kernel without any issues for about 5 days. Today I was trying to update some of my apps and I got the error message below. I tryed top fix permissions, wipe cache, reinstall the ROM and delete Marley data all to no avail. I still can't update my current apps or install new ones. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Check your internal storage space by going to settings > storage.

Bump. I would really appreciate some help with this. I rarely addled for help with the infuse. I actually started a general support thread for answering all rom, modding, or rooting related questions. I don't know what's going on here though. I could use some tips. Thanks

For me this was due to app2sd. I removed rom toolbox and disabled app2sd nd all was good
Did you wipe system? Did not see that listed in your attempts at a remedy when reflashing. Not saying you didn't, just throwing it out as a double check on your steps. Are you using cwm or twrp?
Sent from the Millennium Falcon
Thanks for all the responses! I wiped system, is 8gb available, and I did have ROM toolbox, but I deleted it. How can I disable apps to sd if I deleted the toolbox?

I had an issue like this. It was due to lucky patcher. Do you have that installed?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I recall something similar from my Dell Streak and custom ROM. It's not local storage space but something to do with download cache area. There's a way to clear it - sorry for no more detail but hopefully will put you on the right track.

We have a winner!!! I was somehow able to get rom toolbox back on my phone and then I changed the app2sd settings. Now everything is working again and all is right in the world. Thanks everyone!

Partition issue

First of all sorry if this issue has already been addressed, I looked around could not find much on this issue, anyways I have been running deathstalker s3 for a while, I decided to try deathstalker s4 , it installed okay but the phone kept force closing any system app I tried to run , I reverted back to deathstalker s3 and my phone constantly displays low storage and says 330mb of free space, but in the settings > storage, it displays a lot of free space in the bar graph but none of it is useable, once again sorry if this has already been asked, any suggestions in the right direction would be helpful

I would format the external sd and the internal sd and do a complete wipe and re download the rom to your external sd and flash the newly download ed rom

Do you have any nandroid backup stored on the phone? Those take up lots of spaces. If not you might need to do a format as suggested.

Check /data/media/ you must have some hidden files stored there.
Thanks for the help all of you 100% in the right direction, now I'm a lot closer but I think something else is hidding files, now I'm at 4.62gb out of 9.62gb after deleting the the clockworkmod backups, once again thank you for everyone's input

Storage running low?

For some reason when I rebooted my phone today it gave me a notification that my storage space is running low?! But when I went into the storage settings to figure out what to delete the only big files I have are 3.5 gigs of apps. But yet my phone says I have used 28.5 of my 32 of space? I'm not sure what to do or what to delete. Please help!
