Root No space but there is a 2GB card inside..?

and this is the part where i do the finger pointing to myself, just for laughs..
at first i too was skeptical about rooting my phone, but what made me want to do it was, overclocking, customization(cause i just LOVE mods, tweaks, personalization and making mine, truely mine), better space management, and i got tired of seeing all the apps that i wanted saying *ROOT REQUIRED*. and rooting my phone was the best "mistake" i ever did. this phone is what, $150-$200?? and rooting it and doing all these system "tweaks", made it seem like its worth around $250-$400? it performs better, its updated to the Latest Gingerbread OS out there, and the battery life.. OH THE BATTERY LIFE!!!.. Its AMAZING! waaaay better than what you can get on the Stock Froyo 2.2. and NO bloatware that will damage my phone and hender it from working at its FULL potential. so yea, rooting is a wonderful mistake, afterall, it only voids your warranty.. and what kind of warranty do you get with Virgin Mobile? a warranty to garuntee that your phone will pale in comparison with most low end android phones. (points fingers at self) :D
Touche'
 
Just tried updating Google maps with 6+ gigs on uSD and 96megs internal and am getting an insufficient space message.

Same thing from other apps trying to update.
 
Just install gingerbreak on your sd card. Then run it and when you get root access, go into your settings-> applications -> manage applications -> and grab your apps and move as many of them as you can to your sd card.

I also went to every program I can find in the market that I have in my phone and turned off automatic updates.
 
I have all of mine set to check for updates and auto install them. That'd really suck if one of the apps I use pushed out a security patch update to fix a vulnerability and I didn't get my app(s) patched up. :(
