    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    To round off this thread: As I wrote in the next last post, automatic updates suddenly started to work for me. Manual updates and new installations were still blocked though. I left it like that for a few days, and gradually more and more apps got updated in the background. When the list of...

    Ok, many thanks! I will try this when I have time.

    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    Thanks, sounds like it's worth trying. I have cleared the cache from the stats display, but I guess there's a more thorough way to do it? Adding to the confusion, the phone just now upgraded two 85 Mb apps automatically! But when I try one of the smaller apps that are queued up, I get the same...

    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    Re: Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory? The download size is less than 5 Mb, the figure 12 came from the requirements listed in Google Play. Either way, 500 + 5 + 12 is still comfortably below the 590 that I have. What I'm after is that something must have...

    Thanks for both replies. Byt unfortunately neither makes sense. The app requires 12 MB. Last time I checked, 12 was less than 500. The second explanation, that 500 Mb should always be required, sounds better. But I do have more than 500! Also, it used to work with around 200. It was when I got...

    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    I have 8 Gb of unit storage (plus the same on SD, but that is useless when downloading)

    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    Reading your question again, I'm not sure what you mean with RAM vs storage. This is what the storage summary calls "unit memory".

    Why do I get "memory full" errors when I have enough memory?

    Original Poster here. Answer to Golfdriver97: The 500 Mb are in RAM. It affects just about any app, I have 14 waiting to update right now. The smallest one is Google Calendar. Oddly enough, four apps managed to update themselves automatically today, which I don't think has happened for weeks...
