Hello,
I have my Note 2 running 4.3 (witch is very good) but i have a small problem.
I make a clean install(wipe cache and data)
Then i restore with SuperBackup my apps and other things.
Now when i install someting from the store or update installed app phone says ;
External StorageSpace left 1.5MB
or someting arround this number
After restore i wipe cache again but message is still there.
I have 64GB card with 54GB free left
And 8GB free on the internall according to the Storage Manager in Settings
Somebody with idea or with same problem ?

Search Google for "external storagespace left" and open the result at forums.androidcentral.com. It won't let me post the link here because I'm a new user.

Hey all. Flashed ViperX4.0.1 Rom with CWM.
After installing with aroma and getting back my missing apps from Titanium backup I noticed I wasnt able to install any other apps from the market duo to a "Insufficient storage space". When cheking space specs out I see I have 6.5/6.6 GB used on m internal storage.
Apps are not the issue here. the "other" tab hold 6.8 GB.
Any Idea how to fix this? What should I delete/restore?
Thanks!
please help i cant install apps any more because it says "insufficient storage available"
i used apps 2 rom which transfers data to rom and after a month i deleted some apps and i free up my internal storage up to 2.2 gb
and after that i removed my apps from rom and they took a little space to my internal storage, still i have 2.1 gb free but it cannot download apps
My rom free: 316.6 mb
My internal storage free: 2.1 gb
But still cannot download an app
I have it Rooted. i know advanced in android

Some apps look for percentage available instead of MB available or some nonsense.
Could also be that it needs to install some secured data, and that's going into a place you don't have enough space.
Also, if you had an app installed on external memory at some point, and you try to reinstall it, you'll get that error. Check your Application Manager for any apps that have the memory card icon on them. Those can cause problems.
Personally, I use Link2SD Plus, which requires an SD card. This allows you to move whole applications to a second partition of the SD card. Works well with the tab 3, and leaves me with lots of free space.
I'm assuming when you say ROM space free, you mean System partition space free? I only have about 9MB free on mine and it causes no problems.
Have had this issue on my phone before because the ROM itself locked the device as read-only, causing any app to give that error, and had to flash it again.
I had a bunch of unknown junk cluttering my user/data partition (they're the same physical area on the device), and had to wipe the "internal storage" and "data" from a custom recovery after backing up my data I cared about.
Hopefully this is informative, and hopefully someone else can be more helpful
Good luck to you

i dont know what it says but i think it means read-only memory, and my tablet has no recovery mode it only shows "downloading mode"
I don't know if this is a permanent solution but I noticed that I had no "OBB" file in "Android " on my "extsdcard". I created said file and moved all files from "OBB", "sdcard0" to new OBB file. I then started a program who's file I moved to new OBB and immediately closed. Then went back to original OBB to delete newly created file (double) for that app. Now all my apps download straight to extsdcard in the new OBB file. I can also move apps to SD card from app manager .
Let me know if it worked for you.

Hey guys,
[e] Do i have to 'install' the new storage layout?
I'm sure everyone knows that problem, that the internal memory is getting filled by 'other storage'. My HOX shows me that my internal memory (app memory? have german version here) is using 4,75GB 'Other' memory out of the 6,76GB memory. Sure there I have left ~25GB of 'Phone storage' or how it's called in english.
I want back some free space out of that 'other storage' which takes 4,75GB because as soon as it reaches that 6,76GB I cannot install apps anymore. I'm sure you know what my problem is? I took a lot of time now to search for solutions an did a complete root and have installed CWM, ViperX and did factory resets / wipe data, everything.
Is there no way to get back that memory space? File explorer apps only show me that I have free 1,9GB/2GB of max internal memory but It should be 1,9GB/6,76GB?
Thanks for your help.

I recommend go for the new layout
Thanks for the reply, I already changed to the new layout and flashed XenonHD onto the phone. Still some problems there but at least the memory problems are solved.
Hello guys, I love my s4 mini lte, only thing I hate is its small internal memo. I tried moving some google apps to system, still, I don't have enough space to install or even update apps from the playstore, I also use my 64gb sd as internal and moved most apps which support external. Nonetheless, this is my main issue with my phone. How can I get more space on internal please!
I'm on cm 13 rooted.
Use a root cleaner app for cleaning your root memory. If you ever restored a nandroid backup, a copy of the backup is saved in the root,. By any root explorer app, search for backup or CWM or TWRP folder in the root of your device and clear out any large (over 900 mb) files. Clear your dalvik cache also
And check "lost and found" folder if the cleaning app doesn't find it, but it should, I once suddenly got 1.5Gig dumped there!
Greetings, i am very new to "phone modding" and i came here because my samsung had so little Internal storage i couldnt do anything. So read the forum instructions ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...2#post73774652 ) on how to install adaptable storage to my phone and all went smoothly i suppose. That was about a month ago. Yesterday i wanted to download a big game (pubg mobile) which is about 1.1 gb and had some problems with my storage so i tried the option "Migrate data" that said it would free some gb off my phone into the card. Little to say that the migration failed and my storage was now full 8gb / 8gb. So i restarted but had some problems again. Now when i try to download an app it fails in the installation. Right now i have 2 small apps on my phone and some photos and music. My internal storage is 6.93 gb / 8gb and my card is 4.31 gb / 14.70 gb. What can i do to get it to the original state with adaptable storage. I am afraid that if i format the card and the phone the card will not work . The real problem is that when i try to download an app an error pops up that the installation failed, what can i do to solve it?
(Phone : Samsung Galaxy J5 8GB SM-J500F/DS Android 6.0.1)
*Edit when i remove my sd i can install apps and put back the sd and transfer them back to the sd but i think its bugged cause it says that the installation failed when the app is installed and working perfectly
Should i "format as portable storage" my sd , will it start working normally again and be able to install apps without removing it everytime ?
