Moto G (XT1039) running out of memory Can anybody help please? My Motorola Moto G (XT1039) is reporting “Storage space running out”. Settings > Storage confirms I apparently have only 302MB available from an internal capacity of 5.52GB. I can’t now do any app updates, nor does Sync work anywhere. I’ve already followed the standard advice and moved all the apps (that allow this) to the SD card, together with all photos. Further investigation of Storage shows I have apps totalling 3.5GB, and all other items (including cached data and misc) only total 320MB, a grand total of less than 3.6GB. I should have around 2GB free. Why is it not reporting this, and allowing updates and sync to work? Or, what else is occupying the space, and why doesn’t it show me that? What I actually need to know is what can I do about it?
3.5 Gb of data storage used by apps only is a serious issue. you should clean your device on regular basis (not physically, clear the junk files i mean).

On any device the first thing I do is disable the unnecessary applications in settings. Bloatwares eat a lot of space in storage plus if you have good Internet connection they go on updating themselves over time thus reducing our precious space. you can disable them in Settings -&gt; Apps -&gt; all. then from list click on any app you want to disable. just be careful while disabling unknown apps as it may lead to unstable system so do it on your own risk. you can also use uninstall helpers from play store. click on Clear data button before disabling. it will remove the data of that application. 

Next, try to clean the app cache. Its not usually more than few megabytes but still it can help. And cleaning cache will not wipe the application data or uninstall the updates so you can go for it. use apps like Clean master or similar to keep cache clean on regular basis. 

Lastly try to uninstall the app updates which you don't use or use very less. and keep the "auto update over WiFi" feature of play store 'off' so that you can choose which apps to update and save space.
