You should probably try freeing up some space!

First,do you really have enough free space for whatever you are trying to install?
If yes:
-Try going to Google Play on the application manager and try clearing its cache and then rebooting. I remember there was a crazy bug where this fixed it, on other devices.
If not:
-Uninstall apps you dont use (duh =p )
-Try clearing cache/history. Many apps do that, but you can also do it manually by going the application manager on the apps that are using it and clicking clear cache.
- If you are rooted, you can try moving some games/apps to the actual external SD, using apps like App2SD, Gl2SD or this script http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961097

It's also the second thread you created about it. Why not just bump the first thread?

Lol sorry couldn't find it and wasn't even sure whether I asked in a rom specific thread or actually created a post

Fixed it. Googled it and something about OBEX? Idk the solution was just opening lucky Patcher and it removed it or something on startup

[Help] insufficient storage space

Hello I have encountered a problem with installing apps. I'm on gb(xxkpq) deodexed. when I try installing APPs it tells me that I have no space left when I have 5GB space left on my internal sd card(sd swap). Even when I try to install apps through Google play it shows that I have insufficient storage space on my device. Why is it happening? Help pls

Look for the storage whose size is 1.83gb
If that is filled then clear it by removing few apps or moving apps to sdcard.

Storage issue on my tab 2

Hi my tablet is experiencing storage issues although I don't have much apps installed... I have moved all the photos, videos, music on my external sd card, removed many games, cleared all the cache and now there is less than 500mb space available which is not allowing me to install new apps or update the existing ones also, my device lags a lot.
Pls suggest me a way to free space I don't know where all my space has vanished, I will also like to inform that I'm running on official 4.1.2 release and the device is not rooted!
Thanks

Yes i had installed app2sd but removed it immediately when I found its no use on my tab...I havent installed any virtual ram apps.
What's that circle?
If all your stuff is on the external SD already, try formatting the internal.

That circle is chat head of one of my fb friend. I have factory reset my tab and now its all fine, this is the second time I had to loose all my apps and data and its headache to download alk over when u dont have wifi.... what is the problem anyway why the memeory gets filled so much when I know there isnt much user data. One of my friend said its a jelly bean memory leak issue, is it possible?
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda app-developers app
Well that also happened to me when I installed app2sd apps
I am looking for what caused this but I think its appmgr

Miscellaneous files storage usage

Hey!
I noticed I have almost 2gb of miscellaneous files all the time. What are these files and can I delete them?
Sent from my GT-I9105P using xda app-developers app
if u upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 recently without wipe data afterwards, this will happen. if that's not the case,just ignore me.
That's shouldn't be the case
Miscellaneous here refers to the files other than system memory and cached data. Which means the things you have on your internal sd card

if my case,i boot in recovery mode and do wipe data/factory reset,but that way,all your apps are gone too. so you should investigate better,like brian said,try search you internal via pc see got any abnormal file.
I did a little investigation and found out that there was still Asphalt 7 files after uninstall. Now I have a bit over 2gb free space and 0,8gb of miscellaneous files. I don't know what are those files, maybe some app data + play music + YouTube player cache.

its the cache that takes most of the storage so instead of using a file explorer app you sould download any cache cleaner or if you are rooted then you may try LINK2SD and with link2sd you can even clean dalvik cache and the sdcard partitions
PRESS THE THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED
I want to use link2sd. Does it really make a performance difference? I'm also a little bit nervous about messing up my SD card.
