Storage randomly gone?!?! - General Questions and Answers

Hello, I don't know why that in the storage menu, it shows that I have 5.51GB left out of 10.36GB. However, it says that I only used 2.68GB of storage for application with some little storage for media files and miscellaneous files. By common sense, I should still have about 7.68GB of storage space. So, where is the other 2.17GB? However, in the Application manager screen, it shows that I have 7.6GB of free which is correct. However, on the computer, it still says that I only have about 5.41GB left. What is going on???

In the app manager is the true one. It show 5GB free in pc bcause maybe u delete some file while ur phone still connected to pc.

Maybe, but the embarrassing thing is that even I format the SD card and reboot the device, I still can't see the 2GB on the storage screen and on the PC as well. These screeshoot are taken after I formated the phone and rebooted it.

Mmm... Found the problem... It was the cache of my Google Current app that caused problem. Just cleared it and the free space of the storage menu boosted back to 2.37GB; pretty close to 2.7GB.

Memory is space for running programs. So yes, you will run out of that.
Internal storage would be something different. Though some apps may still get installed to your internal memory regardless of what you tell it.
then what i can do
i lose memory eevery min with doing nothing

Issue with internal sd card

Alright so for some reason my internal card loads, but apps like my music player and photo gallery don't see files. But when I go into my file manager, everything shows. I'm running on CM9 nightlies 8/08 to be exact. I deleted the apps that I updated today and manually cleared out the caches, and the problem still persists. I don't get why everything shows on the file manager. I JUST WANT MY MUSIC PLEASE HELP ME

Same here, exact problem. Just started today, I got it back but out of nowhere, poof, gone again.
I wonder if it has anything to do with them shutting off Flash support today?

I'm gonna flash some cm10 roms since I haven't yet..Might as well use this as an excuse. I'll let you know if it persists over.

And it persists over to cm10. Something had to happen today for this to happen to both of us on the same day.

I took a picture and added some music files from my tablet, and they all show up. But nothing that has been on there will show up. THIS IS SO WEIRD.

It will be there until you restart then it will be gone again. This is not good. back up your files to your computer asap. I'm guessing our internal cards are about to give up.
Yeah I backed up my pictures already.

There has to be a bad file somewhere on the SD card. It keeps restarted the scan in Storage as I'm watching it every time it hits Misc.

I formatted my internal (by mistake) and its showing pictures I just transferred from my external to internal.
Sent from my SGH-I717 using xda premium
so you see the text "scanning media card" or something like that when you first boot? All I see now is "Preparing Media Card". My stuff is back now after clearing data in "media storage" in the app manager and then running the Rescan Media ROOT.apk but I'm sure it will vanish again like last time.
Just try formatting internal if it happens again. It sucked moving all my music back over but nothing has disappeared

I just read on Rootz that it was a ROM Manager mess up and it's been corrected...
"ROM Manager had an update that messed up a .nomedia file which has now been updated again to fix that. Perhaps that is the cause of your gallery issues?"
"Thanks! That was it. I actually had to remove updates to that app, and reinstall the latest to fix it. Great call."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30320286&postcount=2
This fixed it for me. I manually deleted the .nomedia file with a root explorer program, make sure hidden files are viewable if you do this.
Additionally, I had to clear data in Media Storage under settings -> application -> All
Reboot to Recovery and wipe cache partition then reboot phone and everything should be back.
Make sure you update to the latest version of Rom Manager prior to all this.
I'm running SkyICS by Seanzscreams and just ran into the nomedia problem today, so its not an isolated issue CM10

Thanks dear.
Is there any other option without rooting your device?
If you do not wish to root your device then your only option will be to start deleting stuff to make more room.

I have this very same problem but it's nothing I have installed. I get the 'No free space on storage, click here to free some room' and then it shows me whats taking so much space, its only apps in this list, and that is ~80MB out of 3.9GB.
I used a rootexplorer to look around in the phone for some weird cache but found nothing. Nothing.
Please help, it even tells me I cannot receive any text messages.
Oh and..
Rooting is not an option since it's not my phone (borrowing it for.. probably a while..).
Wiping is not an option either.. :/
Any good apps for searching for weird stuff like this?
Thanks in advance.

Camera app says "Insert an SD card before using the camera"

So I just connected my phone to the computer, where I found an extra TitaniumBackup folder. The said folder was located in storage/emulated. Here, the "storage" folder itself was located in the Internal Storage, that shows up on the PC. (I hope I'm clear)
Since there was a more current TitaniumBackup folder already sitting in the root, I decided to delete the extra one inside the sdcard folder.
After deleting, I've lost everything I had on the device. I checked in a file explorer app, and all I had in the internal memory was the Android folder. Apps are working fine at the moment, but camera app asks me to insert an SD card. The amount of free space also suggests all data has been wiped.
What do I do rectify this? I'm guessing remounting in recovery should do it, but I'm not sure. A simple reboot could fix it too I guess, but I'm not sure again.

This is what you're talking about? check picture attached.
And which folder you actually deleted?
Oh yes, it's storage that I deleted, not sdcard
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
It's a mirror storage link that also the same as your main storage.
Deleting the storage meaning deleting your main storage too I would assumed.
Edit:
For the camera asking to insert new SDcard or something. You need to clear data in Settings - Apps for camera.
And the rest of your data in your storage is gone for good now.
Cleared the camera app data, didn't help. You'd say a reboot should help?

If clearing data and a reboot doesn't work it's factory reset time, at least that would be the easiest way.
I guess I panicked more than I should have. Reboot fixed that, so I don't have to reset now
Thanks for chiming in guys

I wiped internal storage in twrp, will the camera data wipe also work when I did that?

Storage space running out

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.

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.
