Not enough space? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I was updating an app and my notification bar said that I didn't have enough space. But I have 11gb internal and 12gb on my external memory card.

"I have a phone, and it isn't powering up." See, no one can make the head and tail of it.
Sorry about that pun, but I only wanted to tell you that more info is needed than throw some statement that would attract no more than some blind solutions.
Tell more details, like say, what's the free space? Did you check with any disk space explorer app?

Perhaps you're looking at total space, and not available space, and you may have the emulated storage bug, eating up your space.

Are you using lucky patcher?

Yes I am using Lucky Patcher. And I was looking at my storage via "holding home" and checking thru that way.

Low Space OTA

So I have the OTA and lately its been showing the low space warning when there is clearly 430MB available when I check it. Any ideas on why it's like that, I even moved most of the apps to the SD Card.

What version are you running? You can find that in the About Phone menu.
The low space is referring to the /data/data partition which only has 150 Megs of space. Do you have a lot of apps installed from the market? How about lots of mail?

Well yeah I have a lot of apps but most of them are on the SD card. I'm running the release 2 from incubus?

Running out of room

My internal SD is totally full. I do not take a lot of pictures and perhaps have 5 gigs of music. Is there a program to clean up junk, and or free up space?
I use this app to move apps and to clean phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.advancedprocessmanager
Also setup box account and drop box account and such to save stuff on cloud.

I would just grab a 32 gb micro sd I got one works like a beauty I carry around 2 other ones on a keychain so I have over 100 gb storage

Mount your internal via USB, cut and paste it to your PC. You can upload it to your dropbox or any other cloud service and it will always be available

LOL awesome..
Seriously though, just use explorer, copy the stuff you know you want off it and delete the rest in non-system directories.. That's what I do.. Then again, you could always get a big whopping 64gb sdcard and use it instead..
Look in your download folder. Old roms were my problem.

Had a few files in download. Was able to free up 1.5 gigs

SD CARD

I have a feeling that this will be a stupid question. But how do I move apps to my external SD. App to SD does not work. Cwm does not show external SD. I'm lost

Well there technically is no reason for Android to move apps to sd because we have so much internal memory, try moving all the media files you have to sd.....

I don't think that's the technical answer. They took that feature out in 4.0, but if you search around you'll find workarounds if you really really want it
Well the internal has told me that I'm running out of space

Damn. You filled up 16GB already wow lol

Note 2 internal memory

Can someone do me a favour a and check their total internal memory. Mine is at 10.36gb. Is this not too small? I wasn't expecting the full 16gb, but even so...

Yes its only 10.36 GB free. Probably the remaining is used by Samsung pre-installed apps etc.
Cheers. Oh well. Spotify better hurry up and allow moving to external sd!

Do a search for the old spotify apk, it lets you choose external. You uninstall spotify, install the old one and choose external storage (download a song to confirm its on ext), then upgrade to the current version and it will keep external as your storage location.

Thanks for saying what the memory is. Just proves to me that I need one with more memory.
Hurry up Samsung and release the larger versions.

Available Space on New Note 2

Hi,
My New N7100 shows the Total Space as 10.36GB and Available space is 9.92GB !! From what i've read before I should have around 10.36GB as available space, is my phone normal???
Go to storage and see what is using space.

I guess you didn't get my question correctly....I did that already...i'm talking about the actual phone space out of the box
Im having 10.36 as Total and 10.36 as available.
That should be the correct specs on your phone.
Look again if there are some folders or stuff eating up the ~1 gb. Dropbox or something.

Hmmmm.....i'll do that and report back, thanks.
Did you login with your Google play/Gmail account during the initial startup wizard? If you had previously installed apps from Google store it might automatically start installing them and that could be the reason you didn't get the total storage.

Go to storage in settings and take a screen shot of what is using how much space.

Imao not a very major issue.

Or games data. My Note II came with some demo games. You can click on the miscaleanous line and see wich thing consume the space.
Demos would be marked as apps...
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
yes just tap the misc files line to see the files. my note 2 had 9.92 as the out of box storage. there will be little variance in the storage depending on the region it has been released in.
Here it is guys..
This is stock vodafone Australia rom. 7105 lte model without lte option, (voda aus:thumbdown: ) I haven't rooted yet. Thinking to flash new one.
