"Not Enough Space to Download" after 3.0.4

**AndrewP** · 10/18/2011, 03:38 PM

I've upgraded to 3.0.4 this evening and I can no longer download anything from the AppCatalog. I get a "Not Enough Storage to Download" error, yet I've over 4GB free.

I'm in the UK.

I can install stuff from Preware ok.

I've tried repeated restarts, connecting as USB drive etc.

Anyone else had this?

Does anyone know if there is a temp folder I can check and clear out?

Regards,

Andrew

I have had this issues too... I posted in the update thread... Tweeted about it too but still no idea what happened...

I have less than 2 gig left, deleted my music.

I also lost my Time magazine downloaded issues and cannot re download them and new issues...

You could try doctoring it i suppose

**OldSkoolVWLover** · 10/18/2011, 04:33 PM

Let's get a list of installed patches for you folks. I would say attempt removing any patches and kernels before doctoring.

I encountered the same issue.... Prior to the update, I know for a fact that my
Touchpad had over 7GB of free space.

Instead of uninstalling the patches and Preware, I decided to start fresh and
used webOS Doctor 3.04. Took 10 minutes and my Touchpad was running
3.04 smoothly. (plus the time it took to re-download all the apps purchased
from HP App Catalog)

IMHO, nothing beats a fresh install.

Takes me WAY longer than 10 minutes to restore everything on my devices. Too much stuff to sync and download, personally would rather not do it if I don't have to.

Same error here. Never installed any kernels. Just updated, installed no patches after update (had the speed up ones [I removed before update] and a few [like private browsing, etc] which i didn't remove (but again did not reinstall). Have Add Launcher tabs and Increase Volume "Linux Applications" [aka startup scripts] installed. I have Jason's SysToolsMgr and FilMgr services installed along with associated apps. I started with 4 GB free - tried deleting a couple movies to get me to 7GB free. Restarted a few more times. Still getting the error.

**AMR-1** · 10/18/2011, 05:07 PM

A theory I have is that it might not be the amount of space available but possibly the number of files. I have MapTool Pro installed with the entire set of pngs for All of Italy and All of Minnesota cached.
Which includes 947 Megs and totals 29,441 files and 597 directories.
Since it takes FORever to download them, i want to try not to delete them.
<still thinking>

Update: My entire USB partition stats:
93,514 Files in 5,635 Folders Approx: 21.4GB

Update 2: Preware says I have 165 Apps, 8 Linux Apps, 1 Linux Daemon, 9 Patches (none of which have been reinstalled yet), 2 Services, and 9 Unknowns.

I believe 32 gig has 27.5 available out of the box so if you are at 7 gigs now, sounds about right.

**AndrewP** · 10/18/2011, 05:23 PM

I'm having some mixed results...in the first instance I wondered if it was an 'account' problem, so I loaded calendar, contacts, email and accounts. After doing that I have been able to download some apps, but it's hit or miss whether it works. Apps in question were Pix, Compass HD, Softick Solitaire, London Evening Standard.

Patches-wise, I'm stock kernel. I had 'send to paper mache' as the only patch and I also have GNU Patch and Lsdiff.

Otherwise 3.0.4 is very snappy - much improved. And yes, I'd rather not resort to doctoring as I've several non-cloud apps that I'd have to backup and restore.

i installed the emergency patch recovery via preware before installing the update. basically it will remove all the patches and you can reinstall them again after the update with a few finger taps.

right now my tp works very smoothly and i dont want to reinstall the patches because the perfomrance is pretty good already. the update also improves the multitasking ability. however preware keeps loading and never actually open. that mAy be fixed by reinstalling it i guess. also vietnamese characters are not displayed correctly on facebook website and app.

btw i'm typing on my tp, having it connected my iphone and talking with my gf. nice!

I thought the number was 29.5 I have 27.5 right now with a 2GB cyanogenMOD partition. I have seen the number 29.5 thrown around before as well.

**AndrewP** · 10/19/2011, 03:46 AM

Just for info, my TP is only the 16GB version.

**damienh** · 10/19/2011, 04:49 AM

After installing the webOS 3.04 update, downloading attempts from the App Catalog systematically fail with the following error message: "not enough storage to download"

Has anyone else experienced this and know how to fix it?

Thanks

hm. I guess you didn't look 5 topics below yours http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touc...r-3-0-4-a.html

**damienh** · 10/19/2011, 05:11 AM

Yes - I've just realized there was another thread on this [PLS MERGE]

Still, I'd like to find a solution whithout having to go through Doctoring... It ruins the purpose of OTA update if at the end of the day you end up having to do a clean install

Apologies for getting the title wrong and typing "space" for "storage". I spotted the error in the body of the message but I didn't seem to be able to edit the title.

**AndrewP** · 10/19/2011, 01:18 PM

Well, Palm Support were the usual help. As soon as "Preware" was mentioned, it was time to resort to doctoring.

**AMR-1** · 10/19/2011, 06:13 PM

I moved my .MapTool folder off to a PC and was able to install two updates, then I got the error again.

I have 2500 Pictures that I'll move off next and see what happens.

**leobloom** · 10/19/2011, 06:42 PM

I think it is going to have to be a fresh install or a quick fix from HP, I have 16GB of space left out of my 32GB TP and I am getting the same error as the rest on here.
