How To Download Apps Using Galaxy Young?

What are the ways to extend Galaxy S II storage for downloading more apps?

• Hello everyone, I have been using my Samsung Galaxy S II for almost a year. Its storage is 12 GBs, no memory card. I have downloaded a couple of android applications from PlayStore. Since a week ago, everytime I  would try to either update or download a new application, I would face a message like ( Invalid package, the application can not be installed on the same.... or insufficient storage... ) although I got like 500 MBs storage available and  allocated for apps only? Therefore, I would like to know how I can get rid of this problem. Or how can I expand the storage capacity for downloading apps. I got like 6 GBs available in my phone storage. Thank you.

• Answer:

  I had similar problems with mine. I still am not clear with the layering of the storage under Android/Linux, but as I understand it you store your data and apps in USB storage (I believe the name implies it functions somewhat like it, it's not an actual USB). There are another 2 storage spaces: SD (which is not your SD card) and another which I believe is the root and is unaccessible to us. I still haven't figured out how or whether SD is accessed. So to recap: either move some files (photos, videos, mp3's) off the device (your PC, cloud storage), or delete some apps, or add a SD card. Your device can support up to 32GB, which are currently quite cheap. If you do upgrade with a SD card manually move as many apps as you can to it and set the camera to save photos and videos there. It will save up more space on the device for more useful stuff, like running the few apps you need to run quickly and reliably, like Quora's ^_^. How that helped somewhat.
