SOLVED This problem by format data from TWRP which cleared everything from /data completely
But was hoping to find a better solution :S
When I try to open the gallery (either the gallery itself or from the camera) it says not enough space delete unnecessary items ..... I dont have an SD card and my internal storage has alot of free space ... all this happened after i did a restore from a backup .. Any help??
I thought the backup was the reason .... I adb pushed OMEGA rom to internal memory and installed after wiping cache , dalvik and factory resetting (From TWRP) but same problem .... I dont think it's a fault in the internal memory as i can copy and delete files from it
Also the camera takes photos normally and i can take screenshots but the gallery doesnt Open

Problem: Widgets wont load after every reboot. Message: Problem loading widget appears in places where widgets should be.
I can recreate widgets, though. But appwidgets.xml file size is changing every time after reboot, from 1,25 kb to 250 bytes. I have tried everything which I could find online: manual backup and restore of original xml file, titanium backup, even nandroid restore, nothing helps.
I am using launcher pro plus (as system app), sd-ext and swap partitions. All apps with widgets are on internal memory.
Obviously, problem is in appwidgets.xml file size change. Why is this happening, how to solve this?
This is driving me crazy...
Do all apps with widgets have to be on internal memory, even though their widgets are not active in the moment?
I have apps with widgets which are linked to sd ext via link2sd.
When I pull out SD card, all widgets are loading properly.
if u use app move app installed to SD card move widgets,widgets will error.
I have finally found out what was the problem. It is moving dalvik cache to sd ext partition via a2sdgui. I think that the same is with linking dalvik cache files to sd-ext via link2sd, but am not sure.
User dalvik cache has to be on internal memory, whilst system dalvik may be integrated into ROM (and therefore moved to rom partition) via titanium backup (no problem with that). Now i have plenty of free space in /data (I have also moved majority of user app files and app data via TB to sd card).
Widgets are now loading as they should.
Hope someone will find this useful.

Thank you for answering, but I figured it out long time ago.
SOLVED - I just reinstalled all the APK, automatically linking them on the SD card. The data was still on the EXT4 partition, so everything was found by the apps.

Hi,
Link2SD was working really nice, until randomly, I kept getting errors saying it cannot links the apps...
So I've fulled backed up my EXT4 partition on my computer (Just drag and dropped the folders. Not sure if this was correct), powered off the phone, reformetted the EXT4 partition with GParted, copied the files back in with Linux, put the SD card back in the phone, power it ON;
But now, Link2SD does not detect the apps that I've copied back on the card - although it can link the apps again.
The apps that were restored simply doesn't appear anywhere (But are on the partition).
Is there any way I can restore the full EXT4 backup I've took ?

Your solution didn't work for me because it just gave an error whenever I tried to reinstall one of the previously linked apps. Likely because of the excess files leftover from the original because it would let me install new apps but not the missing ones. I tried to delete some files manually for an app or two, but that didn't work either. I found an easy solution though that works.
SOLUTION:
Just open Link2SD. Click the top left corner for the menu. Then click on "Clean up the 2nd partition". When I did it said it needed to delete 104 unused files, so I said ok. Afterwards, actually all but 2(out of 32) of my apps were restored with data automatically and those two I just restored from Titanium Backup.
NOTE FOR ANYONE TRYING THIS:
If it's still not working after that, then just try to reboot and see if they reappear. If you do lose some apps, at least you can reinstall or restore them from a backup after that. Again I only lost 2, but the other 30 missing linked apps were restored.
So upon installing CM11.0 I do a wipe and after that I notice that my internal storage is having a 1.32gb free, that it looks like 3.3/4.6GB Is this normal? It is because of the OS fies? I dont have any heavy apps, So I tried exploring my internal storage and look for each folder that is big and not necessary so I can delete it to free up space. What can I do about this? I want to install some app too I tried cleaning up dalvik cache and cleaning cache
Thank you for help
Do you have any NANDROID backups? these can take up alot of space, these can be stored in side your system folder so may not be removed in a wipe
Hi
I have managed to flash cm12 onto my S2 GT-I9100 and it is by far the best custom rom I have tried so far, but, when I went to flash GAPPS it stated to me that there was insufficient space, so I tried every size of GAPPS until the only one that would flash was "Pico".
My phone memory is using about 9Gb of the available 11Gb, surely when I did factory reset and Dalvik clear etc it should have wiped everything from this drive?
Maybe there are some files that I need to manually remove to free up some space?
Cheers
CM12 definitely does not need 9 GB storage. You most likely have junk files leftover in orphan directories. Use a root file manager to explore your internal storage and delete everything that you don't need. Don't delete DCIM (photos) or music directories, unless you do not care about them.

Hi,
Today i wanted to install Sultanxda CM13, so I carefully wiped only data, system, cache, dalvik cache & ART in Multirom-TWRP 3.0.0 after taking backups in Titanium Backup & nandroid backups. Then I went to wipe>advanced wipe>ticked system>fs options>change fs>selected f2fs & swiped . Same I did for data & cache (formatted only /data, /system & /cache). After that, when I when I went to install zip, MY INTERNAL STORAGE WAS EMPTY! (Also, 54GB space remaining in internal storage) :crying::crying::crying::crying:: OH DAMN S**T . I am very very sure I didnt wipe or format Internal Storage. And now my whole internal storage is gone (IT HAD VERY VERY IMPORTANT VIDEOS, PHOTOS & DOCUMENTS).
SO PLEASE HELP ME IN RECOVERING THE FILES. And curse you TWRP 3.0.0!
EDIT 1: I just saw this xda thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...de-internal-memory-data-recovery-yes-t1994705. But it needs ADB & root access, and I dont have OS. Installing OS isnt a problem or me, but if I install OS, some files would be written on data partition, and that would decrease the chances of file recovery. So any way to access root & adb without OS? @DaxNagtegaal and other people can you please help?
EDIT 2: I tried to use root in adb (in TWRP), but it doesnt work. So I installed COS12.1 YOG7DAS2K1-signed flashable zip & SUperSU 2.65 as a last resort in TWRP, booted it, skipped any data restore (to do it later), installed busybox and now I am trying the long-method given here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...de-internal-memory-data-recovery-yes-t1994705 (Now I am making .raw file of the internal storage block through adb). (It seems its gonna take about 8 hours to completely make the vhd file).
Buy an otg cable download a rom on your pc,transfer it to your pc and voila else you can also buy a usb which can be plug directly in your mobile.i think you will be able to recover some file because rom won't take over 54gb.
Please read properly. I installed COS 12.1 YOG7DAS2K1 as a last resort. Now I am trying to recover the data.
I don't think you will be able to recover all the files but atleast some will be recoverable as rom won't take over all space,how many files were there?which files were valuable to you? it its photos?as i once lost my pictures since then im using google photos!
Yup, many pics, some documents, some text files (in which I save all my passwords, usernames, etc) & videos (also game data ).
ah ok i feel you mate,now when you are up and running just use google photos for pictures and googledrive or dropbox for your important files,atleast you know you will be safe if ever you encounter any issue.
Try " delete " like recovery app .once i tried and recover nearly 500 photos but i hadn't try to recover files .
If you change data to f2fs this will wipe your internal storage. Just do a backup next time and inform you more.
