Can someone please explain why my phone tells me to free storage while trying to install an app.
What can I do?

App storage is different from media storage.
Uninstall redundant applications.

After extracting a ROM I want to flash with sp flashtool this is the size, is it normal?

A whole ROM?
No way.
Except you're trying to flash something specific- a kernel, modem, etc.
But a ROM is large.
AOSP ROMs are about 150MB and above.
Normal OEM ROMs like Samsung and the rest can be up to 1GB.
Do you want a to flash a ROM?

yes. The initial ROM was about 1gb.. After extracting its now 26mb.. So I don't know if it's on point or not

Initial?
What was the extension of what you downloaded?
What is the file extension after extraction?

.zip.. After extraction, the files are many. Its a ROM

If you're going to flash via custom recovery (cwm, etc) you shouldn't extract.
Do you have a custom recovery like CWM?
Is there a folder in the zip file named META-INF?

I have a custom recovery, but no META-INF

I'm confused.
You want to flash a whole ROM via SP flash tool?
Do you have the scatter file?

Karmanaut:
Do you have the latest version? Try clearing the data of the app. Must be your network connection. Try to use another ISP (network) or WiFi.

I'll try and download the latest version. Thanks bro.

I have no idea I do not use an MTK device
You should always backup your files in case it gets deleted during flashing, or in case something goes wrong during flashing. You never know when a backup might come in handy.

You needn't have factory reset, just uninstalled redundant applications; app storage is different from media storage.
If your app storage dips beyond a certain size you won't be able to install an app of even 1kb even if your media storage is 10Terabytes.

To your problem:
Reboot to recovery: When phone is powered off, hold the home key, power button and volume up key.
Then factory reset / clear cache from recovery.
Volume buttons are to move up and down, power button is to select.

Thanks. Done that but the boot loop persist

My tecno m3 is acting funny, everytime i try to boot it, it shows select boot mode (volume_up to select volume_down e.t.c) with a cursor hovering up and down. Pressing any of the volume buttons doesn't help.
I have flashed d phone but its still showing d same thing

mhozzis:

Weird.
It's not supposed to boot loop in the first place?
Wipe it again and leave it for... like 20 mins.
If it doesn't boot you may have to flash it.
Do you have a PC?

Remove the battery and reinsert.
If it persists then One or more of your volume keys is malfunctioning.
Are you holding the volume button while booting?
Usually you have to hold the volume buttons to boot into select boot mode.
So if that's happening without pressing any volume button then the volume buttons are pressing themselves.

Yes, if it's for your device.
Wipe data, cache and Dalvik cache via recovery first.

The final Google Cardboard product.
I must say, I love the roller Coaster VR app and the creepy Sister VR. Checking other videos
I sweat a lot at my forehead so placed a piece of green towel around the lens.
If you want to appreciate what it can do, install the Real roller Coaster. Works on normal phone.
