Gallery not working not enough memory - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed a stock rom the latest one not jelly bean the ICE one. I installed the kernel blameitonsamsung v4. Everything works great except my gallery any suggestions. Thank You

Ok I can't figure this out I unrooted the tablet restored stock and I'm still getting gallery message. I formatted the sd card same error message. "NOT ENOUGH MEMORY DELETE SOME ITEMS" What can I do to fix this my wife uses this for her job and a big part of it is looking at pictures now I can't even access gallery not from the icon are in the camera. I've tried uninstalling, I've tried freezing it, Is there an APK I can use to restore this one. Please let me know I need to get this up and running asap thank you.

You didn't flash CleanRom, did you? It's known for corrupting internal storage. Try going into CWM and reformatting internal storage. (in mounts & storage) You will lose everything on the internal storage, so back up anything you want to keep.

[Q] Insufficient Storage Available issues need help.

I am looking for an app or way to clean up the SD card. When I try to install any new apps I get Installation Error - Insufficient Storage Available. I looked at the storage and it says I have the following
System: ROM 325mb (84mb free)
Internal: 1.59gb (1.22gb free)
DB Data: 109mb (75.2mb free)
SD card: 15.8 gb (7.50gb free)
It doesn't seem to me as if there is any storage capacity issues, what am I missing. Any ideas.
I use the paid version of SD maid. I don't know if that will fix your issue but it is a good app to clean up the internal as well as external SD card,.
I will try that.

I get the same error when trying to download any apps. I lost several like google earth, adobe reader ect and tried to reinstall them and get the error. I tried to download the suggested app and same error....any thoughts?
you may have a issue with the SD card. It possible reformating the sd card may help. Could back up your SD card on your PC format it and then try installing a app. If that fixes it, then you could just copy your files back to the SD. Just an idea
I formatted the SD card, then used Ti backup to move all apps to the SD card. Tried to install an app and got the same failed error. Any thoughts?
When you install a app does it install first to the phone then you move to sd or just install straight to sd? And if installing to phone first does error occur during install or during the move from phone to sd?

It seems to be installing apps to the phone, then I move to the SD card. Not all apps move though. I installed a couple smaller apps today and it worked fine but when attempting to install Google Earth I get the error again.
K. Let me see what it does on my phone with google earth.
K so it move fine for me. Do you have a spare sd card you could try and see what it does. That's the only thing I could see doing that. I guess its possible the phone may not be reading it right but it seems more of a sd issue.
Tap-a-Talked
No, I will have to pick one up. I tried ebay app and it gave me the same error, I don't know what's going on.
Honestly me either. It seems as if it truley was a sd issue it would do it no matter what app it was or how big it is. Since its being picky about which ones gives you errors it is 50/50 shot its a sd issue. Only thing I can say is try a different sd and if it still does it then it is something in the phone. I would just get a cheap one and see what it does.
Tap-a-Talked
Go to settings and manage applications. See if some of your missing applications or apps that will not load are listed but have a generic android icon and are named strange. I had about 15 apps that would not restore from Titanium Backup correctly. I finally found the issue under manage apps, deleted the affected apps, and restored them. This may not help you but its worth checking.

Will do, thanks.
I get this message with quite a few apps as well. The one that is really ticking me off is that I can't install Lookout. I have moved most apps to the SD card and there is plenty of room on both the SD card and the internal memory. I am running Heinz 57 ROM EE19.
Any ideas on what could be causing this?
I still don't have a clue as to what caused it but after switching to EE19 and Heinz 57 my issues went away. Not a solution just worked for me.

And that seems to be what started it for me. I guess I will flash back to stock EE19 and start over.
I wiped data/factory reset. After that I flashed the stock EE19, CwM 3, Heinz 57 6/6 and rubbed one out. That order seemed to work for me, but now I feel kind of sleepy. The storage problem is fixed.

[Q] Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (GT-p5113) Internal Storage Issues after flashing custom ROM

So after rooting and flashing the "Clean" ROM v1.1 I had internal storage issues. First the gallery app would not work. It would give me a message "not enough memory" when trying to open it. Also I could not save any downloads, I would get a message that download failed. So, I recovered to the stock ROM provided in the guide (I have a GT-p5113). Recovering to this stock ROM fixed the above issues. However at this time I noticed that my internal storage shrank from the stock 16GB to about 2 GB total (even if i deleted everything my total internal storage would only be 2GB). So it's like my internal memory went from 16GB to 2GB for no reason. See attached screenshot. I'm not sure if that happened after installing the custom "Clean" v1.1 ROM or when I recovered back to the stock ROM. I've since flashed both the "Infected" ROM and the CM9 ROM and with those I still have the reduced storage area and the problems with the gallery app and inability to save downloads.
Anyone have any ideas what happened and how I can get my storage space back?
Same Problem here
Im having the same problem with mine Ive flashed all three of those roms and have no internal storage space left really. the Misc Files in internal storage has jumped to 8.34 GB and an available 2.18 left.
Please someone help us.
P.S. if you figured out how to fix this please post back.
Thanks!
Gallery "not enough memory"
Similar issue. Tried wiping Dalvik but still not working. Installed 3 times wiping data each time. Any ideas?
Same exacts specific problem as kdubbfive.
im not sure Dunkn.Mynes has the same problem. He is losing free space as if something is taking up room .Dunkn, check you r. clockworkmod directory isnt on your internal memory, taking up more room each time you r un a back up.
Just to underline kdubbfive's problem.
have gt-p5113 - same here
installed cleanrom 1.1 - - same here here
total internal memory shrunk from 16gb to 2gb - same here
restored and tried other roms, internal memory remains 2gb
Weird thing is i had the exact same problem putting clean rom on my phone - Motorola atrix
if i dont he of any fixes ill probably try factory restore with kies and the computer image. i only have a chinese stock image that is suppoosed to be the same as USA version. but I'm not convinced of it.
ill post if i get the nerve to try this our find another fix. if anyone has stock image for gtp5113 p please post. good luck.
Thanks for the Info - Hope to find Solution
Glad to hear someone else is having the exact same issue. I've been going crazy trying to find a solution. Please post if you are successful. I'll do the same.

HERE's what worked for me (kind of a complete wipe)
I'm a novice, first time writing instructions, and 2nd time ever posting so let me know if I missed something, and I'll try to get back to you on it.
Make backups as best you can (CWM recovery, Titanium, nandroid)
ALL DATA WILL BE LOST. Haven't tried recovery of data yet. That's the concept behind all the backups above.
Not sure all was neccessary, or what step was key so here is all of it:
Install Kies http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/
Connect tablet and follow any Samsung Instructions exactly
What is says there is updated ROM available, allow it to to install.
On reboot your system will not be rooted, and data will be there (only for the moment), on mine internal storage was still 2GB
Do a factory reset, wipe any cache and all that. Maybe repeat for good luck.
Follow the rooting instructions exactly here including re-downloading files and following all precautions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1657056
(I noticed the cwm file has a PIT file in it which relates to internal memory partitioning. I suspect this may have been key here.)
Follow instructions all the way to the end.
In the end I had 12GB internal which is normal because I think there are 2 2GB hidden partions there for ROM and maybe swap file, I don't know)
I'm going to make a backup now, then go back to see what I can recover. On second thought, maybe I'll just start fresh. Also, I think I'm done with custom roms. I can deal with the junk Samsung programs for the sake of dependability.
Good luck. I'll check back to see if you have questions.
Thank You!!!
Worked like a charm! Thanks, a million!

First time using safestrap

I'm coming from HTC which was just wipe and flash and you're done, so try to spoon feed me a little cause I can't get this right.
I did a complete factory reset and started new. Then exploit, update, yada yada yada
I partitioned ROM-1 for 3 GB.
I wiped everything, factory reset, wiped everything again.
Flashed a ROM
restarted phone
Rom boots up, everything works good and phone is much snappier compared to stock and battery life is much stronger... but....
The phone doesn't seem to recognize the internal memory.
If I load up the camera, I get a message immediately "No Storage, No external storage available." on the bottom it says: Mount USB storage before using the camera.
If I try to download something from the internet the browser just closes, not a force close though.
In settings I see both my internal storage with 22 GB available and my external SD card with 15 GB available.
When I hook up the phone to my computer, all i see in the internal memory is: 2 folders: Safestrap and TWRP
Shouldn't I be seeing all the OS files, DCIM folders, misc android folders too? At least that's how it used to be... or is safestrap different?
So what should I do to have my camera working and all other features working? Is it a step I missed?
Thanks!
HD RAZR MAXX
Fuzion ROM
latest safestrap
any other info required, please let me know.

For one, you might want to check which rom you're using since most available aren't 100% functional.
Second, if it's not the rom that's wrong just wipe your rom slot in safestrap and reinstall it to see if that's the issue.

[Resolved] Issues updating CM10.0 to 10.1 (T-Mobile GS3)

So I have had CM10 on my phone for probably 8 months now (almost since I got the phone) and have had no issues with the ROM whatsoever.
I got a notification about an updated version of CM10 today and went ahead and downloaded and installed it, but when I finished the update, I had no personal data left on the phone, could not set up accounts to recover the data, could not (and still can't) recover backups through ROM Manager, and cannot recover backups through CWM. I get an error message which I can't remember at the moment and leads to a bricked phone upon reboot until I do a fresh install of CM10.0.
I read after I started having the issues that I wasn't supposed to directly upgrade from the CM Updater with an S3, but it was already too late. Supposedly the issue is something along the lines of an emulated version of my phone's internal storage? If that makes sense. So whenever it's pulling a piece of information it's looking in the spot it should be in, but on a non-physically-existent SD card, essentially. That's what I gathered anyways.
I have a 32gb external SD Card that is also in use with my S3. I have tried moving my ROM Backups to there and recovering from the External SD Card, but the same error message occurred, although ROM Manager was at least able to find the backups after they were moved (I also had to change the setting and request that it prefer to look through an external SD Card).
So I have a usable ROM as far as the software itself, but I no longer can use any accounts or information that is stored with them or any of the same widgets (not a game-breaker) as I was able to previously. Is there a way to fix this? I've never just been completely stuck before >.<

Just to be clear, you're saying to try and flash CM10.0 and then do not update when prompted from the notification? The other part was clear enough lol.
Edit: Tried the above and did not fix the problem, but I didn't use fastboot specifically because I have a Samsung phone.
The error I'm getting is "unable to mount /system" when I try and restore a backup.
Bump. Still haven't figured this out.
Problem solved.
Re-flashed CM10.1; doing full data, cache, and dalvik wipes before and after the flash; and the problem was corrected.

[Q] Galaxy S4 (rooted) - Out of Internal Storage (...but I am not)

OK...I have a rooted Sprint Galaxy S4, and keep getting "Storage Space Running Out" message !
The thing though is, that I should have tons of internal storage left. I have flashed 3 different ROMs, and after a few days I get the message again. I can erase some apps to free up space, and half a day later same problem. I can't even get my apps on the phone, due to space issues and I also can't put them on the external SD (not with a specific APP to do it for me, nor can I move them manually, because the button is simply not there in the Storage or APPs SETTINGS menu).
Every time I flash a new ROM I clear data, dalvic....full factory reset....but end up with the same result!
Could someone please help out with a fix or solution with this very annoying problem.
P.S.: ....yes, I have searched tons on this forum and others, but nothing has worked for me yet!
....ANYONE ????
Hello
Looking at images you included it looks like apps & data takes only 1 GB space . There must be some junk in internal storage (may be old .asec files , thumbnails etc). Attach the screenshot of sd storage also . I should see where the data is stored in your current rom .

I flashed old Nandroid of SACS ROM 4.3....so it would be a stock rom screenshot now, and all you would see is that there is 18Gig memory left on the SD card!!!
I had to reflash Nandroid because I traveled and I wasn't getting a signal on my previous rom! I do now...but the problem remains, or actually is worse, but at least my phone works to make calls (no txt or email, because storage space is too low).
In either case, the SD storage has plenty of room, but I don't think that this was ever an issue!....I think it is the phone itself, but maybe there is a fix and I would prefer that over taking it in for many reasons!
Thanks for getting back to me though, let me know.....
Hi
Copy all required data from internal storage to sd card and format internal storage from custom recovery (CWM/mount/format emmc or TWRP/wipe/advanced/emmc) and reboot.
Hope it works !

I will try that tomorrow and will let you know....thx again!
i want you to try stock rom for few days and check
OK...!
I wiped everything again and did factory reset...
copied everything from internal storage to a computer...
formatted data and system (twice)
wiped again, formatted data and system again....
flashed a sprint stock rom
same problem.... I have 860MB of 16GB unused space available!!!!
when I check though, my system data (bare essentials of what is left) is only 348MB....there is 647MB used for apps....the rest is clean!!!
I am still not sure where all the storage went! Could my internal storage be corrupt or broke???
Thanks for the ideas, I will try anything!!!

Try flashing your stock rom again.
I told to format internal storage (emmc) and not data and system partitions. Try that
