Okay, so I have an HTC Explorer, which I rooted recently (Factory reset BEFORE rooting, so that everything is clean). Installed Link2SD on it with an external FAT32 second partition of 512 MB. Then I proceeded to install all my backed-up apps.
Now, the problem I am having, is that Link2SD would create links to all the existing apps(As well as Auto-Link is turned on) but The apps are still taking up space in Internal memory.
For example, say, I have 50 MB of free space and I install Titanium Backup, which is 5 MB, and then Link2SD will link it automatically, but I will still have 45 MB of space left in the internal memory :-/
Help please? I am using Stock HTC Explorer ROM.

I am also having this problem ... Have just tested with Zombiebooth App ...
The app is 30mb was on the SD card (APP2SD standard), moved back to internal it took up 30mb, and then LINK2SD it over to the EXT4 partiton on my sdcard .. it shows the memory space is still using 26mb internal .. WTF .. why is the app still using 26mb ? surely LINK2SD should move all 30mb over and just create a small link on the internal memory ??
EDIT: Just read FAQ's of LINK2SD ... some internal files of an app are still left behind on internal memory in the \data\data folder ...
Wonder if it is still possible to move/link these remaining files over too ? There must be a reason why they're left behind
you guys should try cronmod D2EXT+, here. It's work like a charm on my Galaxy Ace, before i had 180 Mb n after i used it my internal memory become 2 Gb. try it n you'll be amazed...
Or you can just use int2ext+ now. but thanks for the advice.
Hello everyone,
This is my first post here. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace 5830i and today I bought a new SD card because the old one was crap. I had this problem before, I have it now. When I try to download an application from the Android Market, there is always this error ''There is unsufficient storage available''. I checked and I had 23 free MB of Device memory and 1.8 GB free on my SD card. I read a lot of articles about this problem and tried many ''solutions'' and nothing fixed it. I will be really, really thankful if anyone can help me fix this. Cheers!

You could also use Link2sd to make room on your internal storage.
the error you are facing is because once your internal storage is filled by approx. 85-90%, it shows the error - Insufficient Storage available
Try moving your apps to sd-card from settings/apps. if you moved them already, have you rooted your phone? If yes, then you can partition your sd-card to make space on internal storage. this can be done either Minitool Partition software for PC or through your CWM or TWRP recovery(needs root and custom recovery flashed)
what it does is, it takes a part of your sd card and converts it for internal storage.
If you have problem with the Playstore, you can root and install a newer version of the playstore. try this though i may not be sure about this
Google for the method as i cannot posts links currently
Cheers
I have an LG Optimus F3 (Virgin Mobile) and it has a 4GB internal memory. Of that, only 1.23 GB is free for installing apps and roms. The game I want to download and run is Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour which is almost 2GB.
1.) I have my device rooted
2.) I have Link2SD installed
3.) I have a 32GB MicroSD card installed. 21GB is parititioned in FAT32, while the remaining space left is in EXT2.
4.) The install location in Link2SD is set to External
I am still getting "Insufficent space" errors whenever I try to download this game from the marketplace. I thought Link2SD was supposed to fix this. I know I am doing something wrong, but I cannot figure it out. Please help. I am at my wits end.

I suggest that you uninstall apps that you don't need/use and/or remove bloatwares.
Since you're rooted, I Recommend to integrate the updates of your system apps to your Rom.
You're baffled. Android phone has four parts of where the data goes. System Rom, Internal, Internal Sdcard(SDcard0), External Sdcard(SDcard1).
The 2GB game you want to download is going to use your configured Sdcard0 and your internal memory which needs to have 2GB Free of memory or more in total. As far as I see your Internal Sdcard is set as your Sdcard0 whilst your Micro Sdcard is set as your Sdcard1. In that case Link2SD Won't help you, since apps use Sdcard0 to store it's data NOT Sdcard1. Meaning Link2Sd will just move the data of your Game to your internal sdcard(Sdcard0). To solve this you need to SWAP your Internal Sdcard and Micro Sdcard. Means from "Internal SdCard(SdCard0) : Micro SdCard(SdCard1) TO Internal SdCard(SdCard1) : Micro SdCard(SdCard1)".So Link2SD can move the data of the Game you want to download to your Micro Sdcard(Sdcard0) via Edting vold.fstab at System/etc/vold.fstab.

I executed your instructions from "HOW to root & install cwm recovery by androsamace" of the XDA post with success:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2693049
Then I tried to use the app "Link2SD" and got the error "Failure. App2SD is not supprted by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage."
Edit 20 sep 2014 14:28 paris time:
Android version 4.1.2. Samsung Galaxy young duos.
Link2SD
32GB micro SD with partitions as: 1st Primary 25GB FAT32, 2nd Primary about 4GB, 3rd primary Linux swap 900MB
Strange thing is.... Link2SD of 18kb update to PRO results with the error "inefficient storage", but installing the APP clash of Clans, with a wopping 40+ MB is no problem??!!!
I can Link apps with Link2SD.
What can I do to solve this? I can not even install the Links2SD pro update from Google play store.
Many thanks
I tried to call on my Samsung phone --> *#9900#
This will show the Sysdump menu. I pressed the option "Delete dumpstate/logcat". In the post below, it worked for that person, but for me it does not matter. Remove the spaces to get the link... working

Anyone more ideas?
Solution I also tried: Install the app "App Cache cleaner 1 tap clean". But It didn't find any cache to clean.
I cleaned everything before, with Link2SD app already.
Funny to mention that this app can be installed too, and that only certain apps display the inefficient storage error....
Ayone more ideas? please!

Remove the spaces to make a legal web address.
this post mentions about Odex files. How can I remove them automatically / manually?
I have rooted my phone , but cannot install the app systemcleanup...

this is what you need
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpf0OrI8FNA&list=UUJ9UJTj9e59u0gt1a3aovVg
and ignore the external2internal app part in the video use this new updated guide for that one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-young/general/swap-internal-sd-card-external-sd-card-t2817853
First Thanks for the helping, but I still got the error "inefficient storage problem".
So I cannot install "Root External 2 Internal SD" to try swapping internal with external sotrage.
Any ideas how to solve this error?

what is the partition type for the second partition on your card link2sd will only work on ext2 ext3 or ext4
It's ext4 and in the app link2SD I chose ext4 also.
I am using frameroot version 1.9.3 btw...

I installed X-sam's Rom. And the error "no efficient storage problem" is no more. Before the app Link2SD plus update would give the error.
But after the ROM update the error is gone. =)
The link to X-sam's Rom's forum thread:

Going to give Root External 2 Internal SD now my problem is gone.. =)
I installed the APP Root External 2 Internal SD from Android play store.
The steps mentioned in :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-young/general/swap-internal-sd-card-external-sd-card-t2817853
At first I did not see a change like my internal memory being swapped with external,if I look into settings/storage.
My internal storage is still about 1GB free and my external is about 24GB.
I found out that I deleberately have to press the checkbox"At boot **" two times!, the box right of the button "External > internal".
The checkbox is default already checked, but is not active!!!!
Only after doing that, I saw in my Android phone settings/storage, that both internal and external are both about 24GB.
That indicates that my Micro SD is being used as internal storage. After another reboot my internal is 24GB and my external is about 1,2 GB. Everything is a-ok!
I tested it with large APP's like "Plants vs zombies 2" which is about 400MB big. The game could be played without problems!
Just AAAWWESome! :highfive: to you r2dak!
Internal storage is used even if the APP internal 2 external is running. Using Link2SD paid version to move extra Megabytes off my precious 1.5GB internal storage towards my Micro SD.
I installed a lot of APPS, and still got 1,1GB internal memory free ! :laugh:

im glad that you figured it out
and thanks bro
Hi, I have a lenovo Tab 2 a7-10F (running on Android Kitkat 4.4.2). After installing some apps on the device I have now encountered a storage problem. Everytime I try to download anything from Google Play it just gives me an "insufficient storage available" error. I have about 490MB of free storage on my tab right now but I still cannot install any app in it. When I download apps from other markets like Aptoide, they install perfectly but Google Play refuses to install or even update any app - no matter how small- unless I free up more than 500MB of space. I cannot move apps to my 16GB external SD card as the device has an 'emulated' storage and does not read obb files stored on my external SD. The following are the steps I've tried so far-
1. Cleared cache, data and updates of Google Play, Google Service Framework, Google Play Service, Download manager
2. Removing and re-adding my account
3. Using different Google IDs to download
4. Using apps like Obb2SD, Obb on SD, link2SD etc to try move the heavy obb files from emulated storage to the actual external SD in order to free up space
But none of them have worked so far. So I'm stuck with 490MB of free space on my device and yet I cannot update even a 2MB app. The problem is not with my Google ID or Network as I used them to download apps on my phone as well and they installed even when space is running as low as only 100MB. Can anyone suggest a solution for this? How can I get rid of this error/move apps to External SD and free up space? Thanks.
Can anyone alteast tell me if its possible at all to move apps to external SD on emulated storage?
same issue with me
Want to move apps to sd card.
