Here u go !!!!
I dont think this app is avaliable in the market.
What i would advice u is to do a clean instal.
Please note that all widgets need to be stored on the phone memory only, else they will not run. Besides that, any program that stores information (eg 3rd party mail clients) should be on the phone memory.
This is the most simple and effect program i have come across

[Q] where has my phone memory gone?

I have rooted my phone and I have tried to move as many apps to the SD card via Titanium as possible, and I still cannot get more room on my phone's memory to download any new apps. I cannot even update any of the apps that I already have on my phone!! Even when I take an app off, it still does not give me anymore room!! Does anybody have any advice for me? Thank you.

i think you should reflash your rom.. and if you want more space for your phone.. try partitioning your sdcard via CWM recovery.. and use the app S2E from the market to move them.. i think titanium is not suitable to move apps.. but its perfect for backing up your phone's data..

How do you reflash your rom, and partition you sdcard via CWM recovery??? Thanks.

It is possible that it is not complaning about the app storage, but the cache folder the market uses as temporary space when downloading apps or updating apps ( which is downloading the new app and overwriting the last one).
If you are rooted, you could give my app a try SD Maid, especially the system cleaner, it might fix the error for you as it empties the cache directory.

Normally you can clear caches and it will work otherwise uninstall the app and reinstall. If you have to uninstall make a data backup first. What it equates to is the app dev didnt put a call in to remove the app prior to installing the new version. Ive run into this with Plague Inc. and Ive sent a bug report to the app dev. I suggest the same for whatever app you are having issues with.

I've tried the whole "clear your caches and fix your permissions" thing, and, at least from what I can tell, you can't install anything through Play/Market unless you have at least ~55 MB of space available (even if you are installing to microSD or replacing a currently installed app). I'm not sure quite where the threshold is, but it is somewhere around there.
I can't answer "Why?" as it is in Google proprietary code and I don't have the source available.

I have tried clearing caches and dalvic.. also reinstalled gapps.. can't get it to work..

Have you cleared data from Google Services Frameworks? That has fixed every market issue I've ever run into. If jeff is saying it's coded to not let you install with under 55mb of space left I believe him though.

I can't be sure it's "coded that way," but I haven't found a way to get Play/Market to install when I get down somewhere below 60 MB free space, including flashing a new ROM, clearing cache, fixing permissions, reinstalling gapps, and probably a few other things I've tried. There are definitely days when I wish someone would prove my theory wrong!

I believe Jeff no doubt but I have 66.1mb available..

i have this problem when there's an update for the "Dark Jelly" theme i have. i found the only way to get it to update really is to uninstall it and then re-install. i know its a pain in the arse, but its the only way i found to update it.

I had to move some apps from the internal storage to the SD card to overcome this problem. I'm on the Galaxy Beam rom

Apps2SD problem
My Apps2sd (in ROM toolbox) was set to install to SD card automatically and as soon as I changed it AUTO (location) problem was fixed.

Anyone know how to install Apps to the SD card by default? :S
I've been using Titanium Backup to manually move my apps to the SD card.
I'm on CM9, Hefe KoD.

Can U try this?

My husband's Galaxy S 4G is having the same problem with erroneous memory capacity error message.It seems happen after he adds an app. And we are not sure why the error message goes away WHEN it does go away. Can you clear the Google Services Frameworks without removing important info he has put in the apps, or will it delete any apps?. Sorry for my ignorance of the Android system.

If you're husband's phone is rooted then you can always back up his apps and app data with titanium backup or you can make a nandroid backup through cwm that way in case anything goes wrong you have a backup to fall back to

This worked for me, thank you !!
I was having trouble installing UberSocial. I could download and install every other app (smaller and bigger in file size) except for UberSocial.
Tried the Lucky Patcher method and worked like a charm.
BTW, I should mention I have a rooted S3 but found this thread via Google .

The Jelly bean rom takes up a lot internal memory, plus it installs most of the apps from the market to the internal memory instead of SD card. I don't why, maybe the devs can answer this. I had to remove the xbmc app (97mb) in order to install anything else.
Hit the thanks button if it helps. It's my motivator to be more helpful.

I use Titanium to move all data apps to SD, I also use History Eraser before updating apps so that at all times I have over 110MB free on internal mem.

There is also a way via terminal to move cache to the sd card. It's been a while since I've needed to do that and that was on GB. If anyone is interested in the how, let me know.

Ive been working on a universal script to move stuff from internal to external, so far i have it down for my s3 and i could do one personally for the sgs4g but i want to make it universal since ALL ICS AND JB roms do this AND your storages are different when using stock compared to AOSP

[Help] Can't move apps to SD card ...

Hello
So i have a little problem which is really anoying ...
I'm running the lastest stock FW which is Jelly Bean 4.1.1, and my device is rooteed ( i updated with OTA RootKeeper) and i'm sure i'm rooted because somes apps that requires root are working perfectly.
I have tried every single app on the market that would allow me to move my apps to the SD card but no success, every app fails ...
Any idea on how to fix this ?
Thanks in advance

Look for link2sd on the market. This app will move your apps to your sdcard then create a reference point for the OS to find the app. The draw back is it's a little technical to set this up. You need to create 2 partitions on your sd card, first partion is fat32 to store your normal stuff and the second partion formatted with ext4 for the apps. Currently there is no other app can move app to sd.

Why would you need it anyway? 32 or 64 GB of space not enough for apps?

I believe this only for game data only not regular apps! Also not all games will work with this.

Well, let's say that some apps requires a certain patch that only works when the patch is applied to an app that has been moved to the SD card :fingers-crossed:

You can also use the app directory bind to do this on ICS or JB.

With large apps like GTA3, GTA Vice CIty, and Madden, even with a 32g card being able to move large apps to sd would be a godsend. Its making my god tablet slow being filled up. Be nice to find a workaround...

Apps2SD All in one tool[2.3+]: Partition SD card and Move/Link Apps to SD card [ROOT]

Hi all,
This is my first post in XDA but I've been a regular reader as a guest. I've developed an app(Apps2SD) to move/link apps from internal storage to external SD card with lots of other cool features.
Apps2SD has evolved from being an app which moves app data to sd card to an all in one app with many cool features.

Tutorials @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4q5HAHJblI&index=1&list=PLiRFJHKSKUX_q0hsN0oHn4iXGoloJku5s
Prerequisites:
Device needs to be rooted
Root permission should be granted to Apps2SD
2 partitions on external SD card (use Apps2SD partition tool to create 2nd partition). 1st partition should be FAT/exFat partition, this is your standard SD card storage. The second partition is used as the internal storage for linked application files and can be ext2, ext3, ext4 or f2fs.

Apps2SD development
HI Vicky,
let me first congratulate you on making such a useful app which has so many features .Does this app has any device limitations .
thanks , Rahul

Thank you Rahul,
There is no device restriction apart from Android version. The app is supported on android 2.3+.

The app won't partition my 32gb card on a Galaxy Tab 4. It keeps instructing me to reboot. Once I do, the app auto-starts, attempts to partition, then fails. Again, it instructs me to reboot. I never make it past this point. I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks for the app and your time.

Hi Cablespider,
Do you have busybox installed? can you check if fdisk is available in your busybox version.

The partition tool should work now. I've updated the apk in google play. It should be available after 3-4 hours.

good app.
link2sd and apps2sd when used together have conflicts.
App needs stability. every reboot asks for another soft reboot to mount partition.

Please let me know your device name and android version. Ideally Link2SD and Apps2SD should not be used together. Any app linked by Link2SD will be detected by Apps2SD. If you still want to use them together make sure to deselect auto linking in Link2SD or Apps2SD settings.
As for the post reboot issue. Can you recreate the mount script from Apps2SD, reboot and try again. If the problem still persist send me the content of /system/etc/install-recovery.sh file.

running moto e 5.1.1
using only apps2sd solved the issue. and mount scripts were done from apps2sd itself

Great. Please rate and review on google play if you like the app.

but every restart forced a soft reboot to make it work.
jus fix that, it'll be great.

Can you send me the Android version. Also are you able to Link/Move apps manually? Also do you mean after selecting all the options in auto link option, newly installed apps are not being moved to SD card?
Please note that Auto link Settings is for newly installed applications. To link existing apps select the app and link individually or use Multi select to link in batch.
