When updating certain apps I get "insufficient Storage" warning 64gb (40gb free stora

When updating certain apps I get "insufficient Storage" warning 64gb (40gb free stora
My phone is rooted with TRWP, no other mods. I am on the stock rom.*When I update my apps through the play store, certain apps like Facebook, Twitter, Pulse news reader and Flixter won't update and I get the insufficient Storage warning. I have the 64gb Sandstone Black model, global version and I have about 40GB of free storage left. I restored my (non system) apps and data with Titanium Backup. I am wondering if that could be the culprit. I can install new apps from the play store on my phone without a problem, and most of my restored apps will update just fine. So, I am confused why certain apps will give me this issue. I have over 200 apps installed and really don't want to install them one by one. Does anybody else have this issue? I searched everywhere but could not find anything, hence my post here.*
Any help is appreciated.*
Thank you

- This did the trick for me. I've done it on all my devices with this error and it's worked every time.
- I just used Root Explorer and navigated to /data/app-lib and deleted the (insert app name here)-1 folder and updated the apps again.
* Apparently there's an app that does this for you. It's called Insufixer.

[Q] Why can't I install this app? TwoDots, error -506

I've just moved from 4.4.2 to 5.0 on my Nexus 5 and used Ti to restore all my apps. It kept hanging on restoring TwoDots so I skipped it and installed everything else. Now I can't restore TwoDots from Ti and I can't install it from the Play Store (error -506).
I'm thinking I must have some kind of corrupt partial restore of the app but I don't know how to go about solving that. Have wiped cache/dalvik to no avail.

Having the same issue with Google Keep.
Came from 4.4.4 and onto 5.0 on my Moto G LTE. Restoring via Titanium Backup gives me the insufficient space error which is weird, because I have a lot of space for apps. Tried via Play Store and it returned a rare 506 error. Still looking for a solution.
Edit: Just solved this from my side by deleting the data folder of said application. In my case, it was com.google.android.keep which I got rid of via an app called System Cleanup. Hope this helps.

Hey Zyquil. I still have this problem n cant delete com.instagram.android while using System Cleanup. Any ideas how I can solve this?

Error 506
Same problem. I have tried all the above suggestions, including reboots, to no avail. It's happening for Titanium, GoSMS, Roboform & FxExplorer, while others of similar sizes install ok. All of them have been installed and working previously. Sometimes Play Store just crashes with these, or I get 'insufficient storage, manage apps to free space' when sideloading.
Go figure!

I reckon my problems were caused by using the Link2Sd app. I moved too many apps to sdcard. A factory reset and reflashing my ROM sorted the problem. Link2Sd is still an excellent app manager app and allows (amongst other things) linking phone storage apps to the sdcard to save memory space. Just use it cautiously.

If you use a root explorer, goto data/data, there are dead files in there under google music, or talk, delete them , then try to reinstall from play store, worked perfectly for me and killed the 506 error, these are from past error installs and Android thinks the app is still installed. I personally use root explorer and within all the actual blue file folders under data/data, the corrupt ones showed as white unknown files, if I helped hit thanks.... These are actually like leftover residual file fragments from a prior intall, that for some reason Android 5.0+ doesn't clean out, tombstones

thankz ...working (data/data/ com.whatsapp - deleted)

Simply funciounou me, just having to delete files corrupted by Link2SD worth it

I fixed it with sd maid, running the corps cleaner. I'm on lolipop.

I used this fix and it worked perfectly.
I too use link2sd and after a crash I could not reinstall several of my Apps.
I used root explorer as described and when I deleted the non-blue files in data\data folder I could install all my apps.
Thanks to Thunder Droid

It works for me to reinstall the app, but now I can't move this apps to SD Card, do you know how to solve it, please?
And when I try to move the app to SD card with Link2SD card I got the following error:
"[INSTALL_FAILED-DEXOPT] "
Can you help me, please?

Exactly that!
I had Link2SD installed and had moved a lot of apps to the ext4 partition of my SGS4 with CM12.1. Now I changed my SD-card from 64 GB to 128 GB. I had backuped all these apps with Titanium, well, but I didnt delete all those links.
Effect was that restore with Titanium was not possible (forever the MsgBox "....blabla restore...". With Google Play I had this Error Code -506, which is nowhere described I guess.
After I deleted all those dead symlinks I could reinstall or restore the apps, only thing now: Titanium did the restore not to the internal system but to the external sd-card, at least told me so. Now I could move them through the systems app management to the internal system but I think this was not the most elegant way to manage.

same problem for me with few apps.
here my exprerience:
system cleanup do nothing
root explorer free edition can't browse data folder; pro version not buyed
es file explorer free edition has a root explorer but show an empty folder when browsing data
sd maid work great!
thanks @Aventura5

Thank you brother.

Wow! It worked like a charm! Thaaaaaank you! ??

FIXED. Got the same problem here. Trying to install new apps but it kept saying error 506. I'm a link2sd user and i was guessing that the problem came from this app. Just go to the settings>install location>select internal. It worked for me.

I found an easier way to fix this issue. If you have titanium backup installed, run batch mode and remove orphan data.
After that, install from playstore was a breeze.
Hit thanks if this helped you.

Link2SD completely messed up my phone

Alright guys I'm about to blow my top off here. The most recent Link2SD update completely messed up my entire phone.
For reference, I'm currently running an LG G3 D851 4.4.2, stock ROM and rooted. Everything was fine until recently when I started noticing a Play Store update app error "-110".
Not knowing what it was, I investigated, and found that my entire group of app installations have been completely screwed up.
1) First off, I can't install ANYTHING. No app, no nothing. I need to probably install an updated Link2SD to fix this nonsense...right? Can anyone direct me to how I would install the apk using ADB?
2) My mount script is broken and it's not working. It tells me "Mount script cannot be created. mount: Unknown error 150". As a result, my SD 2nd partition remains unmounted....which I think is the source of this entire problem.
3) Viewing my internal storage through DiskUsage, I've discovered that every single app I used to have installed has been "merged" into a single folder simply called "System data". Referenced through this photo here: http://i.imgur.com/ksukQGG.png . Instead of showing the individual folders, e.g.: Google Translate, Pocketcasts, etc, it just shows that big anonymous block of "System Data".
4) If I go to Settings -> Apps. Every single app shows up with "0.00b" as their app size.
HELPPPPP PLEASEEEE I will seriously monetarily tip someone if they can provide me with a solution to this.

Thank you so much for the detailed response. Unfortunately though, it looks like I already have the most recent version installed, 4.0.9? Would this solve anything by basically reinstalling it? I was hoping there would be like a 4.1 version that would fix the issue or revert changes or something.

Update:
Tried installing an app through ADB and it now shows me this:
WARNING: linker: app_process has text relocations. This is wasting memory and is a security risk. Please fix.
pkg: link2sd-4-0-8-multi-android.apk
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]
Any idea anybody? Like before, I'd be willing to donate to anybody who can provide me with the solution. Thanks!

Oh, I was trying to downgrade Link2SD in hopes that it would fix whatever happened with 4.0.9.
According to the about page in Link2SD, I currently have 4.0.9.
And haha thanks for the heads up...I'm really desperate though which is why I pulled that card out.

I can uninstall apps, but I can't install or update anything. That's why I was trying to install through adb instead, which unfortunately still doesn't work. When I open up Link2SD, it doesn't give me an option to reload, it only gives me the option to "Recreate mount scripts". If I click on it, it gives me the mount script error - "Mount script cannot be created. mount: Unknown error 150."

Is there any really important data on your installed apps? If I was you I would simply reflash the firmware and start from scratch instead of spending hours to find a solution. The point is that you don't know what you changed that your phone became like this. I have send a email to the Link2SD developer but I'm not sure if he can provide a solution.

I'm actually backing up all my app data as I'm typing this. The only concern I have though, is that my phone is actually on the stock recovery. I only rooted it because I didn't want to deal with the potential for something like this to happen (which would suck up all my time, haha). As a result, I can't flash anything. So if I decide to stock factory reset, would that clean the /system /data, and everything else that needs to be cleaned for my phone to work properly again? I thought that root (and potentially whatever screwed my phone) persisted through a stock factory reset, which would make trying to do that pointless.

I really don't know, if your root survives a factory reset. Probably it will. A custom recovery is really usefull as you can make complete nandroid backups

Well, I solved the mount problem by formatting my SD card. But that didn't fix anything else unfortunately.
I also noticed a couple interesting things:
1) Android and Link2SD show my data and cache for ALL apps to be 0.00b. I know that's not true because I went to the /data/data/app directories and found the data exists.
2) I can use all my apps normally with no problem. that means all the files are there, and can communicate correctly(?)
3) I still can't install any app at all.
Next course of action: Completely disable link2sd's boot script perhaps? So what would that entail, deleting install-recovery.sh from /system/etc/ ? Anything else, or would that be good enough?

Unable to delete bloatware from phone

Hello, I've made a threat not so long ago
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/rooted-delete-bloatware-t3058272
I'm still unable to delete apps, as u might know, lenovo a850 comes with many useless chineese apps. I have disabled/frozen them, now I'm missing some internal memory.
I rooted my phone with framaroot, installed supersu.
then I tried removing apps with Es file explorer, I gained superuser access to it, and to all apps below, but "operation failed" . Same thing happened to Root explorer.
Later on, I have downloaded no bloat, It says "(app) deleted" but when I exit app and come back in, the app is still there. Same thing is with Titanium backup, I can select uninstall app, it fake uninstalled it, but when I reboot my phone, app is still there, no mater what I do.
Also, I tried using recovery exploit, phone reboots, but the app(s) still remain there
If anyone had same or similar issue, I would've really appreciate any help.
I can provide more info, about build, etc.

Tried it, still, apps are there

Now, I managed to find why it is unable to delete apps, because permissions.
However i can't change them either. Using total commander, es file explorer or using terminal, every time I get the same error.

First thing first,
WHY...WHY DO YOU MANUALLY DELETE IT?
No offense bud, but yeah after you did that, you missed its registry, permissions, licenses and crap.
Ever heard about Uninstaller[ROOT]?
Ever?
This app saves your LIFE,PHONE and ITS LONGEVITY. This app also indicates what app you should delete, what you shouldn't.:good:

Do you actually got root access? You should make the Uninstaller app to ALWAYS GRANT and try again. If no success screenshot me the error popup you are facing.

The thing is, there is no error showing, after "deleting" app, it disappears, but after re-running app, it appears again. The thing is I cannon't change r/w access on .apk files in system/app folder. Even using apps that can change permissions and after granting them.superuser access, I'm unable to change it. On my old phone, after rooting my phone I could easily delete .apk filrs using ES file browser.

Unknown volume huh? Can you execute it? If you can't, I guess you can clean it up by using SD Maid. If the app is even functional....
"WTF? Is this hardware level?"
I would say the abruptly choice to is to COMPLETE WIPE (ROM,kernel,bootloader) and install new ROM. That's my level of expertise, no beyond that.
I mean, something glitched your volumes that they registered empty in kernel but not in the software, or a triple-A type of administration crapware that's preloaded within the ROM which, "BY ANY MEANS...TOP SECURITY SYSTEM APP PROTECTION PREVENTS ANY SOFTWARE-LEVEL DATA TERMINATIONS! ENSURES APPS ARE IN FACTORY STATE, NO MATTER WHATEVER LEVEL OF BREACH INJECTION! DESIGNED BY CHINA COMPANIES! PROVIDED TO YOU!"....
Well that thing actually exists, FYI, and that's the working theory right now.
In addition, try logging via CatLog, cause that is very little log lines for me to decipher.

I tried removing apps by flashing
This is what I wrote:
delete("/system/app/14_Youni.apk");
delete("/system/app/17173.apk");
delete("/system/app/appHao123.apk");
delete("/system/app/appsearch.apk");
delete("/system/app/AppStore-279-209160-signed.apk");
delete("/system/app/baidubrowser.apk");
delete("/system/app/BaiduMap.apk");
delete("/system/app/baidusearch.apk");
delete("/system/app/cleanmaster.apk");
delete("/system/app/com.orangestudio.MuteCamera.apk");

delete("/system/app/yingyonghui.apk");
delete("/system/app/ es.pulimento.wifi-1.apk");
delete("/system/app/luckypatcher419.apk");
Managed to remove few apps that came with custom ROM (I had S128 stock rom, flashed s203) like luckypatcher, silentcamerapro, rootexplorer... But Chinese apps remain. I can't even chmod apps

it seems like I don't have any problem remove all the chinese apps with MTK Droid Tools

Yea, try MTKDroidTools, I never used it but I've been convinced it will work.

I'll try that, and will report results, thanks

Titanium backup pro won't restore apps

Hi guys, as the title says, I'm having problems restoring apps and app data both individually and through batch restore. I've tried changing the SuperSU mounting method, different versions of TB and changed the app processing mode. I've tried it all on the latest version of TB and the version before that. I have no problems backing up apps though. If I try manually installing the apk (after extracting it from the archive TB backs them up to) it installs fine. BusyBox is also installed, USB debugging is enabled and apps from unknown sources is also checked.
I would manually install all the apps, but I want app data restored too and it would be a very tedious job since I have quite a few to restore (some 173 apps) as I just updated to Marshmallow.
Any advice on what I could try next?

No advice, sorry. But I have the very same problem...

Might have been fixed in new update?

TB had an update today for Marshmallow support, so maybe that fixed it? Well, anyway I installed them with adb instead since I needed my phone today. I extracted all the apks from the archives and used a batch to list all my apks in a text file, then added "adb install X:\app dir" to the beginning of each line in the text file then changed the extension to .bat and found that TB would restore app data alone in the batch restore commands.
Code:
DIR *.apk /B>APKlist.txt
A fair bit of effort for all my apps, but I got them all back onto my phone eventually with all the data too. I'm happy now, but I'd still like a solution for future reference.

Todays TB update didn't fix it, at least for me.
Luckily I made the update to marshmallow so far only on a spare N7.

I wonder what the problem could be.... Do you know if there's an official thread for TB on here?
EDIT: I've emailed TB, waiting for a reply.

Same issue. It just hangs when trying to restore on Marshmallow.

I agonised over this for hours last night - turns out that the the fix for me was to switch SELinux to permissive mode.
Install this app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=12506 -- open the app, switch to permissive, and give it another go.

I fogt the same problem for hours messing with everything I could think of and this fixed it thank you very much. I know it's a temporary fix until they get the application straightened out but hey its a fix

Not sure dude, sorry. Switching to permissive mode seemed to fix everything for me - Titanium Backup, Social Contact Sync, StickMount... pretty much everything that needed root.

thanks though
not sure why but if the app is already on the device(older version or with no data) then the restore works
so if i try restore an app(looks like only google apps are not restoring)..then tb just hangs at 0%...
once i manually install the app from the app store., tb stops hanging and restores the data?
maybe this can help someone figure out why restores wont work

I'm having the same issue with Titanium Backup Pro 7.6.0.1:
I backed up and validated user apps and data on my rooted Nexus 4 Cyanogenmod 13.0 Android 6.0.1;
Copied the folder to my SuperSU rooted Xiaomi Mi-5s Miui-8 Android 6.0.1;
Enabled apps from unknown sources;
Set SELinux mode to permissive;
$: su
# setenforce 0
# getenforce
# Permissive
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Updated Titanium's backup storage by searching the device for the Storage folder then 'Reload Application';
Set a filter to list my backed-up user apps from the Nexus;
Set Preferences - App Processing Mode to Auto Direct, and Auto Indirect;
Ran a batch to restore 152 missing user apps with data
Tibu counts through the apps very rapidly, but doesn't install any.
I also made an update zip of apps and data in the new device, and updated it from TWRP without success.
What's the problem?
Thanks

Hello.
I'm having the same issue on titanium 7.6.0.1:
I've tried integrating update system apps into rom but those apps disappear:
-google play store
-android system web view
-smart suite
-talkback
-google text-to-speech output
and the most of my apps are not working now.
I've tried restoring a backup of them I have in titanium backup, but when I click to restore it just don't do anything (it stays at 0% for ever).
My phone is now not connected to my google account anymore now and I can't even add it going to Settings/Account.
Tried rebooting phone but nothing changed.
How do I get them back and the other apps back to work properly?
Thanks.

As I have the Pro version I emailed Titanium support with the problem - but no reply yet.
TiBu seems to work sometimes but not other times and support seems sadly lacking for a paid app; so I copied my issue and a link to this thread to their support.
