If you read me you’ll see I answered every question you asked…
Anyway, I did something that seems to be working: as I had manually upgraded last time (the upgrade that was very problematic so it was abandoned 1.8.2), I went back and used this manual upgrade. Then I reopened the upgrader and I upgraded a second time to the 1.8.5 and also installed the google apks from the fairphone upgrader. So far so good, everything seems to be working but I felt like I wanted to throw my phone out of the window!!!
Thanks… Maybe it has something to do with the storage update (I can’t download any application “not enough space” message).
I’m completely lost: have 1st edition phone, had done “storage update” routine that worked but since last update not enough space and not possible to update apks…
I know what happened… and I feel kind of stupid… As I had trouble updating to kola nut 1.8.5 I had 4 versions downloaded that used all available space!!
So everything is OK now (I think)
sorry about my panic alert!
No… Not again!
It’s happening again!
None application is updated.
I push “update all” on Google play and I get the message “failed downloading…”. It’s not a storage problem this time. I don’t get it…
I don’t seem to have my phone working completely without problems…
Ok did a final attempt to download google apps and it worked! I don’t know why and I don’t know how… just like last time!
BUT
Now I’m back to my old problem… I can’t update any application via playstore. It says there’s not enough storage space but there’s more than 550 MB available…
Just after the intallation of the google apps some of the apps got updated… and then it stopped again…
I don’t get it… I’ve been struggling with this for months now…
Have you got a FP1 (First Edition), and if yes, have you already got a unified storage?
(Unified storage means that your phone storage is NOT split into a ‘phone storage’ and an ‘internal storage’)
@evidemment since it’s the same problem again/still I moved the posts here.
If nobody else has any solutions I’d suggest a you install Titanium Backup and make a full backup, and then do a hard reset.
If that doesn’t solve your problems you should definitly contact Support.
Yes, if you have just the one 16 or 13.37 GB internal storage (and no “phone storage” at all), then it’s a unified storage. Thanks for your reply, in this case I haven’t got an additional idea, sorry.
Did factory reset… Pity I had to go through that again but everything seems to be working fine… Available storage 11,37 Go!!! with all my applications and data re-installed. There really was a problem…!!!
I’m really glad its working now. But this time I won’t be so fast to close the topic, just in case.
PS: I removed your post from the other topic because I don’t think that the two problems were related. Most others who posted in that thread “just” can’t reinstall google apps and probably won’t need a factory reset.
