Guys,
I'm currently using a rooted Galaxy Y Pro. with rooting i was able to clear out the onboard memory by placing apps on the 4gb sd card.
however, when trying to update apps i always get the message "not enough memory available" (while my SD card clearly isn't full).
the only way to 'update' apps is to uninstall them completely and reinstall the most recent version, not a desirable method.
currently running gingerbread 2.3.6
does anyone else have the same problem?
I had also same problem..Make 2 partition in sd card and use link2sd to link apps to sd card ..make sure that atleast 30-35mb free internal memory in phone before updating any apps..I hope this will solve your problem

I've had a recurring problem with running out of internal storage space. I've moved all apps that I possibly can over to my SD card, cleared the cache using CacheMate, and uninstalled most of the bloatware that came with the phone as well as any apps I didn't need that weren't on my SD card already and couldn't be moved. The other times that I've gotten this error, I've been able to uninstall enough stuff to make the notification go away but this time I can't seem to free up enough space.
I noticed that this error/notification occurs when my apps attempt to automatically update. For some reason this eats up my internal storage space even if the apps are installed on the SD card. Also, Market won't let me install any apps, even if they're installed to the SD card. Finally, when I get this error, my Gmail app stops working. It won't retrieve new mail at all.
Any ideas what is eating up so much of my internal storage space and how I can fix it??
Rooted then huh? market search "fota fix" by Matt Henry. Will set you up

Yes, my phone is rooted and running the Octane V3 ROM. I tried installing Fota Fix and I can't install it because there's insufficient space (I have 31mb free on internal memory and about 4gb on the sd card, yet it still gives me this error). lol...this is such an annoying problem.

Classic. Octane v3 already has the fota fix. How many apps do you have?

This phone came with 2.3 (gingerbread) but on every app I've downloaded even apps that ive moved to an sd card on my old epic 4g, dont let me.It seems like it would be auto installed there because when i go to application management and pick an app the button "move to internal memory" is greyed out. But I'm getting a low phone storage warning, but I have a 4gig sd card. I have obtained root. Is there anyway to move apps to sd with this phone?
Anyone?
hey
use link2sd

Link2sd doesn't work with this phone. When you have an sd card properly partitioned, it uses the smaller of the 2 partitions for both 1st and 2nd partition. Would like to figure out how to get it working...

I am new to Android os and this forum as well so I would be really glad if anyone of you would be kind enough to help.
My Galaxy Grand has 8gb memory of which only 4gb is available to the user and I am left with just 800mb space left, I would like to know if anyone of you can let me know a way to transfer my apps to sd card, also I have hears that one can convert sd card to internal memory after rooting, is that possible, if yes then plese let me know how, also is it possible to transfer apps to sd card without rooting if so plsase let me know how, I would be eagerly looking for a reply.

I'm not really familiar with that device but on most you can grab App2Sd from Google Play and it's self explanatory from there, but some devices (like mine) don't et you move apps to the SD Card, but you can move everything else there
And I'm no moderator, but I'm not so sure this isn't the right section for your question, I think it belongs in Q and A

Since my cell runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Beans hence App to sd is not working on it, is there any other option to do so.

After rooting you can use Directory Bind to link your internal/external storage, but that's not truly moving them to the SD Card, but I think it's the closest you can get. I don't bother with it, I just move all my big files to my SD Card so I have space for my APK's on my internal storage

without rooting u cant have memory swap..root ur grand and install init.d support. and reboot then install this http://d-h.st/AGR and gain reboot. this will convert external memory to internal and internal to external automatically.
use http://galaxygrandcenter.blogspot.in/2013/03/warning-it-will-void-your-warranty-and.html to root.
and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39510406&postcount=1 to add init.d

Thank you sir for the help, I have succesfully rooted my phone throught that guide,though there was a little trouble geeting the Clock Work Mode Recovery but finally got it.
Sir can you tell me the actual usage of CWM, can i get backup of my present status through this mode or do i need to use some app like Titanium Backup pro for that purpose and what info would actually be backed up, like would it store info of the present firmware and is the backup point created in the internal memory or the sd card.
Also sir can you please tell me that if I swap my 32gb ext sd card with 4gb internal memory then when I want to get my phone back to normal mode then how am I gonna do so, I mean the sd card would have let's say some 25gb apps and I want to put the phone back to normal, I mean unswap it then how would it be possible as my internal memory would be only 4 gb, will I have to delete apps or use some recovery option, please make that clear, thank you sir for all your help.

I am really new at this. I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 with 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean) on it. I have successfully rooted it but am having issues with trying to run/install/move apps to sd card. I have tried many apps and they all seem to do one of two things. Either they just bring me back to the settings for the OS and applications where there is no move button or they "move" it right back onto the internal sd. I tried partitioning my sd card into 2 partitions (24 and 8) the 24 being Fat32 and the 8 being ext2 and using link2sd app. That gives me an error saying it cant run script and to try using fat32 for second partition. That also gives me an error which doesn't give any suggestions. I am really frustrated. I bought a 8 gig Galaxy tab 2 cause I was told at the store you could put apps on the sd which is obviously wrong. After the OS files and bloatware my 8 gigs is down to like 4.something... when some apps (like sims free play and asphalt7 are over a gig each that does not leave much room for apps. What is the best way to accomplish this?

The usable space for data is 4.59 I think ext 2 isn't really compatible with most kernels nowadays. Format the second part as ext 4. I did 4 gigs and that's good enough for two roms using kk's next dual boot. But I don't play many games on my tab 2 either.

I recently updated my Tab 2 7 to 4.2.2 stock
Under Settings> Application Manager
Tap on the application you wish to move.
Provided it is not a system app, you will see in the "Storage" info box a button labelled "Move to SD card".
It works for me
Install link2sd from goggle store

Im facing the same issue, but at the first time I was able to install link2sd and link all my games to the ext4 part in my memory card, but after a reboot (I was moving some updates to system rom via Titanium Backup) I noticed my games were not there, so I tried to reinstall the mounts scripts but the error message says: mount script cannot be created.
Can someone help to solve this issue?
I already have tried some tricks I found here in the forums without luck
Thanks
Hello! I think that needs another topic.
A small question about the problem with SD card on the p5100.
As of 4.1 or 4.2 google has introduced the 'cool' feature - multi-profile system.
Okay, everything is good, but with this 'cool' feature they have changed something with SD cards. Now internal memory is divided to the internal memory and internal SD-card which is considered as an external SD card. All apps are installed there, and my external SD card (32 gb) is now useless. Ofc, I can explore it on a file explorer, but the system thinks it is the second SD card and don't want to move any apps there.
And that's the problem. All apps are instaled on the internal-external SD card and the free-space is.. You know.
I can't update my apps, I can't download new apps - no memory alert.
Cyanogenmod nightly 10.2
So, is there any way to fix it, like Samsung has done to SGS3?
It's getting everything out of me.
On my phone everything is ok, but on the tablet.. :/
And please don't say google it.
I'm searching for this fix for.. months. Can't find anything so posted here.

Already tried.
"App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your Device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.
That's the problem.
Apps are already installed on the SD card but the wrong one.
Anyway, the emulated SD card has 10 GB free space, the 'proper' SD card has 25GB free.
When I try to update something on G Play, or install any app from my explorer - error, no enough free space.
Oh come on.
i.imgur.com/hWzliZS.png
Where is that "no enough free space"?
For a 200 KB update?!
/edit:
And I think that 'canceling the emulation' of the internal SD card will do a lot for me.. But how. :/

I don't see any app called 'root & clean master'. Anyway can't install any app because I 'don't have enough space'.
Check your internal memory using a pc and see exactly what you have stored there. Over 10GB should be enough for a 200KB update. I suspect something is wrong with your tablet.
Anyway, hard reseted. You can close the topic.

I just got a p3110 last week and have this same issue, Its only a 8gb and I want to install apps to the sd and it will not, did you fix yours? how?
You cannot move or install apps to the external sd card. Only the internal storage. There are methods if you are rooted. Read down the forum topics. There are a few threads discussing this. But stock tablets do not install apps to the external sd card.

Install link2sd
Create a new ext3 partition of desired size in ur external sd using mini partition tool.
Then use this partition to move all your apps using link2sd...
I had done this procedure in my old galaxy y because it had very less internal storage....
I haven't checked it on my tab though... but why don't u give it a try...

CM10.2 isn't yet working flawless on the Tab 2. I have tried nightlies 10 days ago and on 23th but none of them worked as good as stable CM10.1.1 does.
EDIT: I've flashed today CM10.2 nightly 20130826 and finally everything in my p5110 seems to work
