Never mind. To copy apps you need access to the system folder which means you would need to root.

you could odin a custom recovery image, boot into recovery and create a nad of your phone and then dropbox it for safe keeping. Flash the original recovery - i think i saw it in the development threat - and check the flash counter to see if you tripped it... if you did then you'll have to follow the instructions in the dev thread on how to reset everything to stock, it'll take a bit of the search function and some reading but should be releatively easy.

This has been discussed a lot but mostly during the 2 weeks before I got the phone. I didn't know what to search for and when I did try searching I couldn't find the right topic
I'm on rooted stock using whatever build the phone came with out of the box
And I keep on getting this error

Is google wallet safe to use, what if you lose your phone. Can someone access your credit card info?

Google wallet is locked, in that everytime you open the app, you need to input your password. So unless they know the pin, they won't have access. Additionally, you can set up an additional screen lock pin.
worked like a charm

Check your recovery backups, see if you have too many, they can take up quite a bit of space.

i dont think so, i remember reading someone with a similar problem in another forum but cant for the life of me remember where, sorry! are u on a custom rom? try reflashing or connect to your computer and use the explorer to see where all your space has gone. if that doesnt show more space and a reflash doesnt fix maybe its your internal storage itself i think thats what it was with the other person and its irreparable without replacing. I know Flac music files are crazy big but i assume ud know if it was that. hope i help in some way and if i come across the other person with the same problem ill post a link.
I had a similar issue after flashing a new rom, it would show up with about 9gb taken up space even though nothing showed up. The way I'd fixed it was by formatting the sd card from clockworkmod.
A few ideas
Install solid explorer from the play store. It has a mode that lets you see what is eating up space graphically.
If you download roms vía rommanager or any other app check the sd card folders for those downloads. they're about 150 mb a piece so they can add up (especially if you do nightlies)
If i format my sd card via recovery,
Do i lose my apps?

You will lose any apps installed on the SD card.

I don't know of a way to restore directly from dropbox. I believe it WS designed as a means to store the backups rather than restore from there.

Right. There are some apps on the market you can use to download from drop box to your phone. I've never used them but its worth a shot if you don't have a PC near by.

More information, what are you trying to download, what browsers have you tried??
You always write these incomprehensible posts and never give any info.

Usually a different browser will work.
Or search play store for a downloader, it will strictly download the link you put in.
If it's a rom, just download on pc

Hello sir, try changing the settings in the browser to where actual files are downloaded to. If it says save to memory card change to internal, or vise versa. Hope it helps. The option is "default storage"

What files from what app? This is sort of like calling a mechanic and telling him your car won't start, then asking him to fix it over the phone. Please give more details. Also did you try any of the browser suggested?

What rom....and what apps2sd scripts are you using if any ?
Changes you've made recently have caused this ???
Updates perhaps ???
My thoughts are leaning toward applications that point to downloads being force placed to external storage...
And the default is internal storage..
Something is likely causing a conflict in the mapping before the download starts...
If you are not opposed to testing, you should revert to a known rom setup that worked..
Or if needed...restore the device totally if the issue cannot be found...
Scripts are often hard to track down ...and I think one of them...or at least parts are present that prevent the correct mapping to occur...
Just my thought at 3 a.m.
So go easy on me....LOL...g

I'm currently on 4.2.2 using SlimBean. I tried to upgrade to 4.3 using Odin and it softbricked my phone, and took almost all night of going in circles getting it to come back (my boyfriend walked me through it, and saved it, phew). I don't know where to go from here or how to go about it without screwing anything up like last time.. can anyone help? D: (I'm also pretty newbie at this, I'm sorry. D: )
We tried to google and search everywhere for how to properly do this or how to do this without screwing up like we apparently did! Also, upgrading his using Odin worked... mine didn't. T_T
And does anyone have any suggestions for the least buggiest roms out there? I always seem to flash ones that give me major problems (phone randomly turns off or restarts, camera doesn't work, random things crashing, losing service permanently, etc.)
Thanks!
Which 4.3 ROM are you trying to upgrade to?

Well, I'd like to run Quantum but I thought I had to upgrade to 4.3 first as I'm currently on 4.2?
