[Q] Storage - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I hope that I posted this in the right spot. My Note 2 keeps telling me, insufficient storage available. I still have over 9 gigs of storage left. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

i am running a stock rooted rom. It happens whenever i try to install any app, whether in the Play Store or by sideloading an app.

There is another thread with what sounds like an almost identical problem.

Check that thread as I believe they solved it.

Thanks for the help, I figured it out. I forgot that I had the app links2SD installed and had it for the default location of going to the SD card instead of automatic. Going to the provided link helped me remember. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your reply! I had the same exact problem as you, but didn't have links2SD on my phone... I had installed something else similar to that. I went ahead and downloaded links2SD, and did what you said worked for you, and that was to set the installation location to automatic, rather than to SD. Now my phone finally works again!!!
I recommend anyone with this same problem to grab links2SD, and follow the steps above. I've tried everything I could find, apart from a factory reset. So glad it didn't come to that. Not sure what caused the problem either. I'm thinking it has something to do with LuckyPatcher, since I've had this problem before installing any type of "App 2 SD" apps on my phone.
~Thanks again!

Help Needed. Need to get back to Rooted 2.2 or 2.3

Hey guys. I have a problem and not sure how to go about this. My Evo was at 2.2 rooted for a long while and all of a sudden it started acting up. It would always freeze and had to be rebooted constantly. So I had a back that I went back to successfully but it is at 2.1 now (Baseband 2.15.00.09.01)
Now I'm not getting the OTA update to 2.2. I go into HTC software update and it says no available updates for my phone.
So how do I get to 2.2 or 2.3 rooted?
FYI after going into bootlaoder and choosing Recovery, I get Clockworkmod Recovery. Is this normal?
You need to flash the stock rooted ROM for the latest OTA update. I would suggest trying out some different Roms, though. That's the best part of rooting.
And ClockworkMod is the most popular recovery for the Evo, so yeah that's probably right.

Sounds like the perfect time to throw CM7 on there and see what you think about AOSP Gingerbread.

You are speaking a different language to me lool. I'm new to this so I don't know exactly what your talking about or how to go about doing that.

It's pretty easy actually. Once you have root again (if you don't already), go to http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=supersonic and download either the newest nighly (30) or RC2 to your memory card.
Boot into Clockwork and go to backup and restore, and choose nandroid backup or backup (I'm not using clockwork, so I don't know the exact verbiage). Once the backup is complete, do a full system wipe by clicking on wipe data/factory reset.
Once that is done, choose install zip from sdcard, scroll down to cm_supersonic_full-30.zip and select it. It will install and then ask you to reboot. Go ahead and reboot.
Once your phone is up and running again, you'll want to get back into recovery so that you can flash GoogleApps, which you can find here: http://goo-inside.me/gapps/latest/7/universal/.
You'll flash these just like you did CyanogenMod 7 a minute ago, although you will want to wipe your cache and dalvik cache (which is located under "advanced" in the Clockwork menu) first.
All you have to do then is boot back up, go through the walkthrough to set up your google account, and then you'll be running (close to) stock Gingerbread 2.3.
If you need any help, feel free to ask.
Awesome!!! Thanks blackroseMD1!! I'll give it a try when I get home from work tonight. I'm not rooted right now. The last time I rooted I used unrevoked because it was so easy. Would that be good enough to get the process rolling?

I'd actually use the link that CheesyNutz posted up there. Universal Auto Root works better than Unrevoked, from what I've heard.

Yea it looks great and loving the change so far
One last question. Is there a tethering app built into CM7 or do I need to get wireless tether from the marketplace?
Edit...Nevermind I think I found it right underneath bluetooth settings

Yeah, built in tethering works fine. Seems like you found it. Enjoy Gingerbread.
Many recommend wiping data/factory reset (which I know was suggested and you've done), but also cache and dalvik BEFORE flashing any new ROM. Also, with CM, is it not suggested that you use Format_All?

I only started using Format All recently, and never had any trouble before that with just a factory reset. Different phones react differently though...
another question is voicemail is not working. I get a text message saying Android has sent younansprint voice message and to call a number. Then it has this long string of letters and numbers. So how do inset this up

Your best bet is to use YouMail, which is free in the market. It's a lot like Sprint's Visual VoiceMail that you have on Sense roms, but with more features. I use it, and I love it.

Internal memory issue - some folders not accessible

Hello!
I had this problem since I got my N7100. I am not able to access the Download or Data folder on my internal storage. I am not able to delete them nor copying something into the folder... nothing. If I download something my phone automatically saves it to extSdcard/Download.
Anyone encounters this problem or has a solution. Help is very appreciated.
Thank you all!

I know that this Forum is maybe the wrong place, but I know that in this section much more people with propably good answers will come across than in Q&A section.

I found one first "wannabe-solution". It's only a workaround for the Download problem, but no real solution.
I entered the internal storage with my file-manager throught root partition (/data/media/) and managed at least to rename those corrupted folders in something else and with a dot at the beginning to hide them in normal file-managers. Now I changed the Download-Storage-Target in the stock browser to the internal memory. It works now like everything would be fine.
Anyway I can't delete these folders. And they persist. I had them before flashing, and after doing a Super-Wipe (including the internal media part) I got this problem again. So it has to be a Kernel-related or System-related problem. I think it's the second. I'm not sure but I think I had the problem also before flashing Perseus Kernel.
Anyway, some more help would be highly appreciated!
Thank you folks!

So, all of us have a question, we must post in original development in order to have a quicker answer.....strange
I'll report your thread.
What rom are you using?
For this one "If I download something my phone automatically saves it to extSdcard/Download." go to to your stock browser settings -advanced and find default storage.By default is memory card.Change it to device
edit:you see? You can find your answers.Flash back to stock rom and do wipe data/factory reset. Check again if your problem with internal memory is still there

At first I have to say that I am sorry, because of my thread-opening here, but I also thought that this might be a more intensive problem to more users here. I know, that I can change the download target (i wrote that in my last post), but that don't gives me the reason why this happened and how I can remove such folders.
Maybe it's more a android-general problem and not SGN2-related.

You are right. Sorry for that.
Regarding the problem. Maybe it is a necessary fact, that I used the init.d script to swap internal and external memory.
Could that be the problem?

I checked the folder right after flashing a completely new ROM. Already wiped everything in my phone. Problem was there from the beginning. Maybe it's another relict from the Script . I never used the script after the last flash.
I think its from the browser. My browser wont remind my location target. I have to change the lllocation to internal memory nearluly every time I start it. Thats very confusing.

[Q] Deleted Pictures?

I unlocked my Bootloader today and without knowing basically wiped my SD card of all personal files including music, text message backup files, my backup root files, ALL files. I honestly dont care to recover all files that were deleted but am dying to get my pictures back. Is there anyway i can get them back without the guide used to get back all deleted files as seen in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705 guide? I was trying it but it doesnt wanna play right with my laptop(Windows 8 and it keeps saying i dont have "permission", even though im the main and only user). I tried the disk digger app but its finding all kind of random pictures i never remember and things like that, just too much. So please if anyone knows anyway i can get them back share some insight.
Anything????
That was a super fast bump...you could try recovering everything with disk digger and trying to pick out what you're looking for after it finishes. The recovery applications look for anything that has not been overwritten in memory (even if it was deleted), it won't pick and choose the most recently saved stuff for you; you usually need to do that yourself.

wiped everything

I accidentally formatted everything from my phone. I was in CWM and I formatted everything, and now I basically do not have anything on my phone at all. After the LG boot up logo, the phone goes blank. I'm able to go into download mode. I tried following this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2420219, I keep getting failed previousload() a few seconds after clicking the top left yellow icon in LG flash tool. Anyone have any idea whats going on or how to fix this? LG E988.

Copy a compatible ROM to your memory card and start CWM to flash the ROM you have just copied.
Hope this helps.

Hi I didn't find it in one particular section, I had to search everywhere, i spent a good 8 hours straight searching as I really needed my phone to work. I will try my best to start you off though.

That's basically all you have to do. I did, however, run into plenty of issues along the way which is what took up all if not most of the 8 hours. What I did was google each and every issues that occured and I always found answers to it (with some added trial and error).
Here are some of the issues I faced while sideloading that you or your friend may come across.
''device not found''
''cannot read file''
Both of which can easily be solved by googling. I hope I guided you in the right path, feel free to pm me if you need anymore help.

TWRP not working correctly

On my M8, I'm trying to reinstall Xposed (reinstall because I stopped using it for a while and wanted to save some space) but when I boot into recovery, TWRP isn't showing me what's on my device. In the "Install" section, it doesn't give me the right menu. I don't know how to explain it, it shows me things that I'm not looking for. I've done this many times before and so I know what its supposed to look like. It doesn't show me any of my downloads (which BTW there isn't a downloads folder either), even if they're .zip files, it only shows me folders. Its really hard to explain but I also noticed that my backups are gone even though I did one yesterday. If i go into ES file explorer, and look into my recovery, i can still find my backups from TWRP. I'm running CM12.1 if it makes a difference and the device was on Sense 6 5.0.1 before that. Both are and were working perfectly.
