Device says error while downloading because there is insufficient space...

ok people,
I use a samsung galaxy mini with stock gingerbread 2.3.4 rom. I have link2sd installed on my phone and device is rooted. Recently i've been getting, "error while downloading because there is insufficient space" .. I have well above 120 mb in internal memory and the whole 4 gig memory card is free. I am not able to tick auto-link to sd on link2sd , because that option is unavailable. Also i tried to partition my sd card using minitool but i think im getting it wrong.
please help me.

1. Open "Root Explorer"
2. Mount as r/w
3. Go to cache/download/ and delete everything in that folder.
This should fix your problem.

Ok i mounted as r/w and in cache folder i only found two folders lost+found and some recovery related file and there was nothing related to download.

This looks like a bug with the new android market. The new market is so silly and idiotic. First of all there are always connectivity issues in it besides insufficient memory issue now. I downgraded my market and it work flawlessly. But sadly this is short lived as it updates itself.

I am, on my Archos 101IT Gen8...
It's killing me! Market v 3.0.26 (or 3.0.16, can't remember)... Almost all my apps need to be updated, and when I do this BLAM! 'Unable to install on SD or external storage'!
But I tried Jelly defense off Thepiratebay.org and it's the same problem... I install it, the bar moves a little and then '!Didn't install' WHY is that happening?
Even with PES 2012, but why?

Chainfire 3d can't install plugins

Hi all. I've rooted and installed CWM on my G7P. However I've downloaded chainfire and installed the driver. In addition I downloaded the plugins in the zip file and instaaled them on the root of my SD card my ext sdcard and in the system folder all the while leaving them in the zip. I repeat the plug in scan and supposedly they can't be found. So, I know some of you ae using this, so what am I not doing correctly. Thanks in advance

place your plugin on your internal root then install it (from internal), i get a force close when i try to install the plugin from sdcard root
hope thats help

Its fixed. I'm not sure what I did wrong as I was on root, but it finally was recognized. Thank you.

a108b - Unlocked, Rooted, Running Stock ROM HELP!

Android Version: 2.3.5 Gingerbread
Software Number: 1.57.862.2
Anyone else have this model that can tell me what to do about freeing up internal space on the Stock ROM?
I've tried several of the things in this forum on the stock ROM with no success: Factory Data Reset (the apps don't re-populate for me), Link2SD...says it "can't mount" and gives me an error...Titanium Back-up works as far as moving some apps that I couldn't before to SD, but most of there .dex and temporary files still are posted to the internal memory. I do have a Root Explorer where I can go in and delete unnecessary files, but I don't know which ones are unneccessary...does ANYONE have ANY tips on how to save on memory. There's got to be some EXPERTS around here that have had this phone long enough to give some MUCH NEEDED advice. I've heard not syncing the contacts with Google and Facebook save on space? But how do I do that if they're already synced? What do I delete. What apps are out there or what can I install on a root, stock ROM that will benefit in COMPLETELY moving apps and there cache/data to my SD card?
I had 10MB free last night...I wake up this morning and I have 0MB...what is up with that? Where is my space going! Are there any apps that can read where my biggest files are?
Side note: I'd really like to keep this thing on the Stock ROM and not mess with the radios, etc...as it's supposedly a network unlocked phone. If I do flash ROMS will it mess with my default radios? Also where can I find the Stock ROM to flash back to if I do NEED to flash right now in order to save on internal space. I really don't want to lose features like the Facebook button, front-facing camera, etc.
ANY HELP IS EXTREMELY APPRECIATED.
Thanks fellas!

Yea, it didnt work for me..I think it's cause I'm on Stock ROM. Has anyone gotten Darktremor to work on Stock? If so, how?

The only issue that i can remember, is that your rom isnt mounting the ext particion
Im using a stock rom with the darktremor script, but in order to use the script i have to do this
Install the script in recovery
Particion the sd card( fat32 / ext4)
Boot the phone
I have to format the ext particion using a pc software to ext2
Reboot the phone
Use the terminal emulator or a2sdgui in order to use the script
Try this way and tell if it works for you

Stock boot.img doesn't have init.d support and therefore dta2sd will not work. You need to edit boot image to add init.d or google how to do it without editing. There is a nice tutorial on xda on how to add init.d support on stock rom without editing the boot.img

Download the apk from official site then put it on sdcard.
Connect at adb shell or use terminal:
pm install /sdcard/whatsapp.apk

Titanium Backup "insufficient free storage space"

Since moving to 4.4.3 with the updated firmware, titanium Backup won't run... I get an error stating, "insufficient free storage space." I've tried both ext SD and internal SD with same error. Also tried changing prefs from using TiBu busybox to the ROM busybox--that worked for one time but now getting the error again.... Am using ViperRom 2.5.0. Anyone else seeing this problem? Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

I know when I tried to backup to my sd card it said the same thing, but after running an app that grants you access to write to the sd card it worked fine. As for it not working backing up to the internal I have no idea.

I saw that error message one time. I cleared cache and data in TB and corrected it.

Thanks. Clearing data and cache didn't work... Although it seems to be working on the internal SD card now. Anyone have any other ideas?

You need a kernel that removes write-protect to the removable sdcard. Most of the custom 4.4.3 ROMs have that as a feature, but stock doesn't.

Thanks. I'm on ViperOne rom and am pretty sure that is built into the ROM... Never had this issue on 4.4.2 but now on 4.4.3...

I just took a quick spin through the Viper thread (very quick, I don't run that ROM). I saw a recent post from after the 9/25 version of the ROM stating that Viper uses stock kernel. So, unless it fixes read/write of sdcard2 another way, not sure it's working on 4.4.3.
I run the Elite Lunar kernel which definitely removes writeprotect on sdcard2. Not sure how that flies with Viper, though.
