Guys ,
I am currently using WanamLite XXELK4 V5.0 as my daily driver for my International Galaxy s3. Lately i have been experiencing two very annoying problems with the gallery and swiftkey apps. When i try to open my gallery from either the camera or gallery app (and at times even quickpic for that matter!) i get an error saying there is not enough space and i need to delete other items which is ridiculous since i have about 10 gig on stock memory free (i don't have an external sd installed).Secondly my swiftkey says it cant load the language pack and when i try to redownload it fails. I am mentioning this because these two errors almost always occur together.
Factory resetting my phone when updated to the xxelk4 rom seemed to have resolved the issues but only temporarily as after two or so weeks the errors are back. When in this state i also get database errors when trying to view the pics from Quickpic and when i take pics with the stock camera app (or third party camera apps) it shoots but does not save the images and it appears to be a data/database corruption issue but i don't understand what could be causing it i have run a disk defrag app on my phone once or twice and i wonder if this could have caused some problems with the integrity of my internal storage.
I have tried clearing app data but this does not solve the problem and fixing permissions in recovery proves to be only a temporary solution.I am hoping there is some help for me out there my internet serached thus far havent yielded any effective solutions.HELP!

I have been running CM7 since the first pre-beta release as my daily driver, this problem has always existed and I am beginning to think its either settings or my particular phone. The phone itself, CM7 works quite well, scrolls quick and almost all the stock things work quick.
However, most apps have issues hanging and I have the option of closing the app or waiting. If I choose to wait the app will eventually start working after having to click wait several times. It does not appear to be linked to one app, I do not have many apps installed, however here are some of the apps I have with the issue... facebook, espn score center, words with friends. On occasion the gallery will also have issues.
Here is more information about my phone and what I have tried.
Cyanogenmod 7.1.0-ba2tF-Olympus
Kernel: 2.6.32.39-mb860-cm7-g54722f1
baseband: N_01.97.00R
I have tried clearing cache, data, etc. Reinstalling. Removing and readding apps. I tried sd speed increase with little or no improvement. I thought that maybe where the apps are installed is an issue, however do not exactly understand where the storage is as my external sd card and internal "sd card" appear almost identical with folder structure. (I thought this was odd...)
So my question is, has anybody had this issue or have any suggestions on how to fix it? I have searched for weeks trying to find a solution with no success anywhere. I would like to think its something stupid as my phone quadrant scores are around 3700.
Thanks for taking the time to read and any advice!
I'm running AOKP JB Build 5, and Dagr8's Kernel.
The rom is awesome, but something is wrong with my Media Storage, ever since I ran this rom.
I am suddenly experiencing duplicates of music files, and pictures, all stored on my SD card.
I clear data on Media Storage and reboot. I then have to wait an extremely long time before my SD card finally reads, then back to normal...
But then this re-occurs!
I can't figure out why or how to permanently fix it..
Help?

I have seen users with this issue, when I had double [or ghost/double files] for my pic's [no music I use pandy] it was from restore quickpic from tibu, so I just reinstalled from the Market fresh quickpic app, it fixed that, but I have to from time to time backup my storage and just do a complete format, then put my files back on, I did upgrade to a better quality ext SD and did a fresh format of that and copied my files back on, no issues since then...
A side note, I had these issues going from ICS to Jbean, but since I did the above no issues on this, just my experience.
While I can't confirm this, I do suspect that the issue is caused by duplicate media storage events occurring within the rom.
This can be accomplished a number of ways, but I also suspect that it's an APK compatibility issue.
And depending on the roms used, will manifest itself when more than 1 app stores data, while the second APK will duplicate the data save function.
Check the rom carefully for more than 1 app performing the same function, such as a camera app or music app.
These APK's often have an auto save/restore feature, but save the files under a different file name and basically duplicate the save in 2 places.
Also, apps that auto backup will often save duplicate copies in different locations, by mistake, as they are not always compatible with every build.
Again, it's really a trial and error situation, as so many variables exist, and many apps share duplicated function without registration of a force close event.
I hope in some small way this may help you find the rogue apps.....g
good morning, a couple of weeks I have a pretty annoying problem with my Android smartphone.
when I try to load an image of a social network with the relevant app (facebook or twitter) the app crash and restart. I think everything happens when the system attempts to change the images to reduce the weight and to optimize the loading. happens either in the data network via wifi.
it all started and so quite by accident, do not remember doing updates or something. space on the internal memory there is, both on the sdcard0 (onboard memory) that the sdcard1 (sd additional). Use the cyanogenmod 10.1 (Android 4.2.2 jb) downloaded from this forum. I checked and is not a know bug, indeed it would seem only my problem.
I even tried deleting the phone and reinstall everything from scratch, clean rom and only facebook app crashes the same.
this is the log on the facebook app

and this is on the twitter app

Hi,
Lately I've been having problems with my SGSIII.
Problem started while I was on CM10.2 stable.
At one point (after a few days), every time I tried to download a photo using any browser, the download would be unsuccessful (gets to 100% downloading, then error's out saying "Download unsuccessful.").
I tried multiple browsers but didn't help. Some of them said the SD card is inaccessible, but I have no external SD card (had it before, but removed it).
Also, I noticed that the photos I took wouldn't show up in the gallery (would not load thumbnails or show photos), and every new photo I would take would not appear listed.
So I thought that was a CM10.2 bug, and exchanged it with a stock based ROM (NeatROM 6.1), but the problems persisted, except now it shows old photos in the gallery, but every time I would take a new photo the Camera app would freeze.
Transferring files from a PC has no problems, and the Internal Storage shows 3.5 GB of free space.
I tried clearing the data of Gallery app, Browser, tried wiping cache/data/dalvik, fixing permissions over CWM, but nothing helped.
Any suggestion what could cause this problem and how could I fix it?
I checked the forums and googled the problem, but haven't found a solution.
Thanks!

Tried a couple of other things and it didn't work, so I had to resort to reflashing stock firmware. Reflash managed to fix the problem, but too bad I didn't manage to find the culprit of the problem

Hello Everyone.
I own a Samsung Galaxy Ace (S5830) and until 2 days ago i was running a CM7 on it until it suddenly just stopped working and the phone hung in some kind of boot loop. That's when i decided to "upgrade" to a newer version of CM and searched for everything necessary.
I tried some CM11 alpha but since it's pretty unstable (at least the version i had was) i tried others until i settled for a stable 10.2 version (cm-10.2-20140309-UNOFFICIAL-cooper++). So far i am pretty happy since it actually is running very smoothly on my phone and i did not expect that at all. But then i ran into the same issue that basically everyone owning this phone runs into - it's very limited internal space.
Fact is i do need some google apps since i'm using gmail and synchronizing my contacts through it. Also i want to use Whatsapp, basically the only reason for me having a smartphone right now. I Installed the Dolphin Browser aswell since a decent browser is also something i'd like to use from time to time, but it seems to be full on external anyways so it should not count towards the internal storage.
Problem is now, all that is already too much for the phone's internal storage to handle since whatsapp has to stay on internal - at least that's my experience - and the google-play services that are needed aswell are placed on internal too without option of moving them.
I tried some things but basically all of them failed on one or another weird way..
- titanium backup - uninstalled system apps that i am not using (radio, browser, google play voice things, etc.) but after a reboot they were all back again. Even before rebooting, uninstalling them seemed not to open up space at all.
- Link2SD - tried linking whatsapp to my SD card, failed since whatsapp wasn't running very stable anymore. If anyone has a solution for this i'd love to hear it!
- App2SD - didn't even show any internal apps, and wasn't helping at all.
Also something i've tried, i have a message backup for whatsapp that's ~14mb but lies on my SD card. Problem seems to be that Whatsapp on recovering these messages put's them somewhere on the internal storage, at least it takes those ~14mb away from it after it recovered them. I tried to change the path whatsapp uses for internal storing of data with the app 'FolderMount' (like i found tutorials on the internet for exactly this issue) but wasn't even able to locate the internal stored data :/ Not because i just didn't find it, but because it seems not to exist...
I know i can't really increase the size of the internal storage but i think there has to be something i can do. I can't even update whatsapp since i am just living on the edge of the "low storage space" message with 20-15mb left.
What i am hoping now through this thread is to get some ideas or options how i could free up some space, move some apps around to SD maybe (utilize Link2SD correctly) or in the end basically have the things i need but some free storage on internal so that i can use my phone, maybe even install apps on SD (without them touching internal space) and have some room to update the important apps like whatsapp.
