Hi,
I have a strange but annoying problem in Tab S running lollipop and rooted since last week.
I can't save app with Titanium backup, it stops after one saying insufficient storage. Also, I can't preview or export any files from the Drobpox application. Photos are not appearing as thumbnails. It says "Storage saturated or unavailable".
But what is strange is there still 6.8Go space on my internal storage and more than 10Go on my external SD card.
Do rooting could have change something? But I can't understand why internal storage is affected. Other apps seems to work fine, at least I didn't find other complaining about storage.
Does someone have an idea of what I should do?
Thanks
Mel
PS I already clear caches and also did a wipe partition
Post a screen shot of your storage in settings.
Hi,
Awkward link but I can't post it since I don't have posted more than 10 messages :

Since yesterday, I got 2 others apps behaving abnormally. A twitter client unable to display image thumbnails and a newspaper app unable to download the daily edition.
It sounds like a writing access for (some) 3rd party apps (since I could take screenshot and picture, on internal storage). Is it possible? Does un-rooting will amplify or solve my problem?
Thanks
Mel

It looks like you need to apply the sd card fix. Search play for sdfix.
Also you need a kernel that allows permissive mode for titanium backup to work.
Thanks! It solved my problem! All the problematic apps now working fine.

Hello folks,
I currently have an Excalibur (Dash) phone. Does anyone know or happen to have a workaround fix to re-direct temporary memory or available memory to the storage card instead? I just keep getting "memory is full" issue whenever I try to start my camera phone even though I've already close down all app running.
Thanks in advance
Check Applications Installed
It seems that there are various applications on your Dash which are installed on phone memory itself. Normally, while installing an application, it asks if you want to install it on phone or storage card. Best way is to install them on storage card, but remember if you ever replace your storage card, the installed apps will not work and you will have to reinstall them. Also, if you are using email software on it to download mail and attachments, you can change settings so that they are stored on storage card.
I suggest to check your phone for apps which are installed on it and remove the ones you feel are no longer needed. Alternately if you decide to keep them, uninstall them and reinstall them on your storage card. But remember, any data or settings generated through those apps will not be available once you uninstall them.
Hope it provides some pointers.
Cheers,
KC
Great advise KC! I will check those and let you know if I am still having the same issue.
Cheers!!
Hi there,
For the past couple of days, I've been getting "installation unsuccessful" error messages whenever I download anything from the Market. The apps are downloaded, and Android tries to install them but fails every time. I've gotten successful installations on one or two occasions, though, seemingly at random.
I have 22MB of internal storage left, and I used to be able to install apps with only 10MB, so that's not the cause. And I have around 2GB on my SD card. Funny thing is, I can't even install some .APKs of beta apps that I know should work, because I've installed them before. I thought the issue was solely related to the Market, but the Market isn't involved when installing apps from "unknown sources", or is it?
Does anyone have any suggestions besides doing a hardreset? Anyone experiencing similar issues?
Cheers
I had the same issue with my Desire. After i searched on the internet, i found a lot irellevant sollutions to this issue.
What i did? I did a backup of my SD card, format SD, restore settings to default and that it.
It was a hard decision but i couldn't find any other solution. After that, everything goes normaly, even today!
Thanks for the reply! I still hope I don't have to do a hardreset, but if nothing else works, I guess I have to go ahead and wipe that thing.
Have you tried the fix_permissions script? You can run this from the Amon Ra recovery or go to the Market and download ROM Manager. It's under the Utilities section of ROM Manager
I guess that's only for rooted devices?
OK, I give up. If no one has a solution to this, I'll just hardreset the darn thing
OK, I give up. If no one has a solution to this, I'll just hardreset the darn thing.
Is there a backup tool that can restore all your apps in a way that the Market will recognize them under "Downloads"? I restored apps from a backup once, but that was pretty pointless since I no longer could enjoy updates through the Market without having to re-download every single app.
Titanium Backup has a "Market Doctor" to fix your Market links, but you need to be rooted.
If you aren't, I'd suggest syncing with AppBrain, which at least means you won't need to search for all your apps on the Market again.
Regards,
Dave

Have you tried connecting your phone to pc in disk drive mode and doing a scandisk of SD card.
I had the same problem (card was mounted as read-only)
After I done scandisk it found and fixed the problem.

No, I had not tried that since the SD card appeared to be working. I used to get quite a few "SD card damaged" messages until I let Android format the card. I tried Scandisk now but it didn't take care of the Market issue unfortunately. Thanks anyway
But it does indeed seem like the SD card somehow is to blame. Those few apps that I actually have been able to install have been installed to the internal storage.
I think this problem started when I for some reason decided to clear the Market's cache and data. Thing is, I have set Android to install apps to the SD card by default (adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2) and that might have something to do with it as well, although it worked fine for three weeks.
I got this when I installed the unofficial OTA update for 2.2. Only fix was to try another custom rom.
Have you tried to go into manage applications and then clear all data for the market app ? This has solved some similar problems for me in the past.
Yes, I cleared the Market's cache and data, and I actually did that before the issue started as well. I just hope a hardreset will fix it all, going to erase everything later today
For the record, I had to not only perform a hardreset, but delete the .android_secure folder on my memory card where apps are stored to get the Market working again. I could probably just have deleted the .androd_secure folder, but then I would have lost all apps installed to the SD anyway
Works like a charm now.
hey did you find a solution to your problem???

But erasing that folder removed all the apps you had installed on your memory card, right?

Hey man good to know im not the only one i have exactly the same issue,did u found the solution for it? i still want to use the trick setinstalllocation 2 .
I had to test another SD card so i borrowed my girlfriends Wildfire... (oh-o..)
It's rooted & last WildPuzzleRom, I turned it off, replaced the SD card and restarted it. Then I put back the original SD card when i was done and restarted it again thiniking that the apps will re-initiate.
Now most of her apps are missing except basic Sense ones. Most troublesome is that the market app is gone to so i can't install any new apps or (re)install Titanium to backup her data (mostly sms) before reflashing it all.
When looking in the "native" app mangager i can see the apps installed and the size of their data folders but the program size is 0.00kb
Please help
1: Can i force restart/remount/rescan of apps2sd apps?
2: can i force an (re)installation of titanium without having access to market/astro or any file manager?
3: Can i somehow backup her SMS etc in any other way?
Pics etc are ok thank g*d since they are on the FAT32 partition but if i don't get the rest fixed there will be most unpleasant consequences for me, i trully beg of your support or she will have me neutered!
Check the apps2sd commands page in the first instance. I'm mobile at the moment so can't help much.

just searched the command line page for u. maybe if this helps....

I have searched every where I could and is still without a solution. I cannot save any files to my internal memory at all. I cannot download torrents with utorrent, browser, or onedrive. I cannot even backup my apps or contacts to internal memory. It keep saying its either inaccessible or its low on memory. I even factory reseted the phone and im still having the same problem. I am stock rooted. I use my tether alot so I am hoping thats its not a hardware glitch. utorrent no longer gives an option for external memory so I cannot get any torrent. The last time I remember it working was when I downloaded a picture from bing on my browser on May 22nd. Please help or point me to a fix. Thanks in advance.
What does "internal memory" mean to you -- '/storage/emulated/0'?

Yes. I can add and remove files with my computer but root explorer doesn't even let me move files from my SdCard to the storage/emulated/0. Its frustrating
Dear All,
This is my desperate attempt after days of googled with a dead end.
Recently, out of nothing i have encountered a major error after years. It all of sudden. Bombarded with "google play service is stopped" then decide to reboot then never up again with "acore stopped working'' on the very first screen after samsung logo where you have unlock the screen.
I did wipe data/factory reset. All good. reinstalled all essentials. SuperSU and Rootchecker report im still rooted. Then noticed LINE app (by Naver) has a bizarre behavior. All image related operations is not working with message "Cant use SD card, please confirm SD card settings"
All other chat messengers all working flawlessly (BBM, Whatsapp, you name it) but this one. To be detailed, affected operations are downloading stickers, themes, chat image attachments, chat photos wont came out, trigger camera, attach/send photo..
Submit a ticket to Naver but returned with they have no support for rooted device.
Device detail:
N7100 4.4.2 (rooted)
SuperSU / Knox disabled
modified platform.xml (extsdcard write access)
Failed Attempts:
- format ext SD card from inside, issue still exist
- install / reinstall LINE app, issue still exist
any kind of idea/helps would greatly appreciated as most of my contacts and communication are mainly using this app. I hope you guys have knowledge to be shared for pinpoint the issue based on the error message above. I believe the solution can be a great value as there are currently none in the net.
Thanks
try to apply kitkat sdcard fix
click
I have the Xperia Z3 running on Lollipop.
Same issue, all apps such as whatsapp, fb, etc can access the SD card except for line.
The error message when trying to send a photo to someone in Line is "Can't use SD card. Please confirm SD card settings"
Reinstalled the app several times, unmounted and remounted the SD card, even moved the app to the SD card with the app itself still working fine. But still cannot send or receive photos or download stickers.
Also applied the suggested that sd card fix even though it wasn't really needed since all other apps can access the SD card just fine..anways it didn't help.
Any other ideas?
Oh yeah, even tried installing a Line version which was 6 months old - didn't help either.

I have the exact same issue after a full wipe and re-flashed custom ROM. The naver LINE app have the same issue as mentioned above. All other apps functions normal. Anyone found a solution to this yet?

Hi. I've encountered a similar problem recently. The interesting thing is that my telephone does not have SD card at all. So my first thought was that the problem is in permissions or cache.
I checked the permissions - app had full access.
Then I cleared programm cache on my phone. both inner memory cache and telephone memory cache (at least that's what they are called in my native language)
After that I tried to upload the image, yet it gave another error. something like: "cannot perform the action now, try again later"
I was quite short on the inner memory on my phone (around 70 MBs free), and thought it can be the problem. I deleted the biggest app and was able to upload the screenshots again.
Probably worth mentioning: I did not reinstall the Line app.
My device:
Telephone called ImSmart C471. China at it's best. Assembled in Ukraine though, company called Impression.
Android 4.4.2
In the latest build, Line apk cant send photo from internal/sdcard..it said line cant use sdcard..?
i had the same problem when i moved to new phone ( Xiaomi Mi4 ). I solved that. Just find the application permission setting in application manager. Try to find permission to stroarge. Change the permission to allow. That's it. That worked for me.
where's the settings?

I can't find any setting for permission to storage from the application manager, is there any? did I overlooked?
Try updating the app in play store. I had the same issue but solved with the updated version.
I had the smale problem. I deleted some pictures and videos and then restarted the phone. Works like magic
