N9: running out of space, check data storage
Hello,
I yesterday I got message about running out of space: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/00_spade.png Did check data torage and on first look I have enough space: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...9/01_spade.png Output from terminal: Code:
~ # df -h Anyone with solution how to solve except device refresh? Thanks in advance, b. |
Re: N9: running out of space, check data storage
I do not believe mms not-sending is due to this.
df clearly states you have less/equal than 10% (1GB) free space on MyDocs. I do not know where Nokia set the limit, but free up a few 100MB on mmcblk0p1 (MyDocs) and see ... |
Re: N9: running out of space, check data storage
I followed your advice and deleted some stuff and it seems that did the trick, at least for MMS.
Thanks, b. |

Re: N9: running out of space, check data storage
I am occasionally getting this error as well, but when I check my data storage, it shows 2.0 GB / 2.1 GB on my application data
Previously I was deleting old MMS (which is very long process) but I started deleting browsing history from my web browser which drops the storage to 1.9GB / 2.1GB and I can receive and send MMS I went into the terminal and ran df -h and I got this: Code:
~ # df -h the only thing that is close to being full is the bold. But I dont even think that would show up in my application data |
Re: N9: running out of space, check data storage
In my experience, there are two very big users of space in the limited "application data" section of the N9's storage.
One is the mail storage. The only way of cleaning that space would be to delete your accounts and recreating them, to get rid of all downloaded message bodies, attachments and images. Unfortunately, I don't think you can delete the contents of the folder where the mailboxes are kept without losing the mail account configurations... But it's probably easier to attack the folder /home/user/.thumbnails, which is usually hidden. It contains thumbnails in various sizes for different places in the UI, and by far the biggest is the .thumbnails/grid folder, which has the thumbnails of photos and of social media posts. There's so much of them that you can't just rm *.jpeg, you should use a command based on find, which I can never remember how to do or even if it works on the special shell used by the N9, so my (ugly) workaround is: Code:
cd /home/user/.thumbnails/grid This is also a great way of dealing with the issue where the mmcblk0p3 partition runs out of inodes (as reported by df -i ) |
