as I am a noob in this field so i would like to know how to do this. I mean how to swap internal and external memory

Ok.. I have just rooted my phone with clock work mode recovery and wiped delvik cache and this trick gave me to install a small app named sketch guru. but after that when i tried to install updates of stock app it failed due to insufficient storage. guys please help me.

Hi,
Check in folders /data/app and /system/app. If you find some *.odex file in one of these try to delete it.
This fixed a similar issue for me.

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.

Bump.

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?

[Q] Rooted my Galaxy Ace but internal memory stays full

Yesterday I have rooted my Galaxy Ace and removed some pre-installed apps and also moved as many apps to the sdcard.
But the internal memory stays full and when I install for example the google docs app (4 mb) on my sdcard there is also added 4 mb to the internal memory.
When I look at App2SD it shows that the app is installed on SD card.
I rooted my device to get more free internal memory but up till now without any result.
What else can I do?
Best regards,
Carola

move dalvik cache to SD-EXT partition in a2sdgui..
delete all apps in /data/local ..
this should work. it worked for me.
yeah... just search how to activate a2sd on your Galaxy Ace... the best way, flash Ketut Kumajaya's CF-Root kernel, and also a2sd files with it... then activate using terminal, and you are done...

Can't install new apps from Google Play, "insufficient storage" message

Hi,
I installed the route 66 stock rom on my Verizon Galaxy S3, and now am getting the "insufficient Storage" error on Google Play when I try to install apps. I have lots of room on the internal and the external SD cards. I've tried clearing the data on Google play, but still won't work. Any ideas on how to fix it?
If you Google search insufficient storage space Google play there is some good info
Could this be your problem:

Are the apps you are trying to install ones you have installed before?

No, that isn't the issue. These are new apps.
How many apps do you have?

Not so many. I have lots of space on both the internal sd card and the external card.
I'm getting frustrated with this, considering wiping phone and starting from scratch, but no point unless I understand what's wrong.
Did you use lucky patcher on this app?

You have to deo-odex the app first, then install normally.
Fixed it
After trying a lot of things, I gave up, backed up everything with Titanium Backup, wiped my phone in recovery, and install the new Synergy Rom. Now works fine, and I can install apps fine. Don't know what was wrong, but just in case I installed Cache Fixer for future issues.

Skyrocket i727 running cm10.2, want to remove partition.

So I have two phones, a note 2 i317 and a skyrocket i727 running cm 10.2. I recently flashed cm and with that I went around to installing my apps. And after installing just a few apps, and I get the error, "insufficient storage available". I look in my storage section in settings and I discover two internal partitions, both labeled internal storage. One has 1.97GB available and one with 11.24 GB available. The apps seem to install only in the smaller of the two partitions. And in my manage apps section there is an option to move apps to SD card even though there is no SD card inserted. Of course all apps don't support SD card moving so this creates a problom. How do I remove one of these partitions so I can install more apps? View attachment 2323488View attachment 2323490

The 1.97GB is your total space on that internal storage. If the available space is only around 200-300MB then try deleting all the files in data, lost+found. You may need to enable root access for your file browser (I use ROM toolbox, root browser). There will be 1,000-7,000+ files in lost+found to delete, so be patient after clicking on lost+found while it generates. After selecting and deleting all, check your available storage. Should be around 1GB. Now your apps should be able to download and install

I'm running out of space of phone memory. I've moved all the movable apps to internal storage but the notification keeps coming. And the calculation of space in phone storage doesn't seem correct. Please help me solve this issue.

If u have custom recovery u can try to delete dalvik catche
and try to use CLEAN MASTER , it useful if you rooted your rom
*** iF YOU HAVE ROOT ROM YOU CAN TRY LINK2SD APK TO MOVE YOUR APP TO SD CARD PARTITIONED *****
I have the very same problem. I could not find any solution that does not require root access. And I can't root the device since it is not mine. :/ Can anyone help out? I tried many different cleaning programs and I also tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/how-to-solve-memory-leak-problem-xperia-t2488573 but none of this works. I can free storage from internal storage but not from device memory.
delete some apps/data
Hi.
I'm sorry, but without root is imposible fix this.
