Getting this error with non market applications on both Pongster's SD Android as well as CyanogenMOD 7...
I have taks 29'd, reformatted the memory card, and still the same issue with both.
Am I doing something wrong with installing programs outside of market by simply allowing the program to install on its own?
Any insight would be appreciated!
Edit: Installing by copying apk files to memory card seems to work-but it wasn't like this with Blackstone's RAM...kinda defeats the purpose of direct downloads if I have to rely on this method.

Hi everyone
I just managed to boot android onto my HD2 and I'm loving it!
Question though: when i install applications from the android market, where do they get stored/installed? Is it in the SD card? Or on the flash memory of the phone... I couldn't seem to find a directory on my sd card that had all the applications I downloaded...
Thanks in advance!
they will get stored in the data file unless it needs some external access and then it will create a folder on the sd card
oh, do you mean that 1GB data.img file?
so it basically does just stay on the SD card then right?
i installed quite a bit of applications, but the data.img file still seems to stay at the same size..?
Yes, exactly. everything will be stored in the 1GB data.img. Unless you download additional stuffs through or within the application, then the application will create a new folder to store them.
To conclude, everything will be stored in your SD card.
great! thanks!
Installing apps
Since the topic is about installation of apps, i'd just like to ask a question about installing apps. I'm new to Android on hd2 and was wondering if they are cab files to install android apps like in WM. And also if there is, how do u install the apps as we can;'t access file explorer in android
Thanks
Hi All,
Since moving to the NEW NAND roms i've needed to use MOVE TO SD since space is limited, although every time I try and move to SD, I ALWAYS get "Failed to move application."
I've re-formatted my SD card but no good and I cannot seem to find any other relevant topic on XDA.
Any ideas?
Rob
I used Titanium backup to move my apps to the SD card. There's a batch option that does them all in one go.

first : stop the application then move to sd.
Tried downloading Titanium Backup from market but get unknown error - 18.
Tried stopping the APP first by clicking "Force Close" but still no go...
Download and install apps2sd
If that doesn't work try a different SD to rule out the possibility of your SD being corrupt
Failed to move application on HD2 android
I have recently flashed my HD2 to run android off the SD card. I need move some apps to the SD card in order to enjoy downloading additional apps. I have tried with Titanium BU and it says it moved it but it actually does not. I have also attempted the defaulut method and no luck. I even tried to force moving it by downloading android sdk but since the device is not an android phone the command promt doesnt read it. I am losing hope on this whole android thing since i cant enjoy the app usage. Plz help someone!!!!!
How to install apps on HD2 Andriod builds?
I have tried installing a few apps via andriod market but they all "close unexpectedly" and a force quit is required. Can someone explain how to install the builds. I am using warren's 0.4 build SD build. Also what is QR code?
You'll find info on QR code here, but simplistically it is a bar code link to the rom/app you want to download.
As for the FC's and app install issues, you'd probably do best to ask in the devs thread as others may also be experiencing the same problem and know of a work around. Your sd card could possibly be corrupt and may require a reformat.
As for the bar code scanner I get that off the windows market or android?
Plus my sd card is fine atm. ty tho
Android
Some said that I should unmount my sd card, then dl and install the apps and it should work. Yet you say that I should use QR to dl and install app.
Both cases work or what? ty for ur continuous help btw
I wasn't really punting the QR method, you just initially asked what it was so I gave you some info
If your sd card is ok, there are certain apps which do install if the sd card is unmounted first ie Angry Birds. You can try that also.
I recently installed Android on my phone.
And now I am getting an error if I run a application. ( This does not happen with all applications. )
The error I am getting is:
Slice It! ( Game I downloaded from the Android Market. )
-----
Sorry!
The application Slice It!( procescom.com2us.sliceit ) has stopped unexpected.
Try Again.
-----
This also happens with other apps.
I have found a fix for this error and that is to move the app from my SDcard to my phone.
But some apps on my SDcard work so I was wondering is there a fix for this so I can put all apps on my SDcard so that my phone's internal storage does not get full.

Info op my phone:
HTC HD2
Android 2.3.2
MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 (v. 2.6) A2SD+
Is there something I could not explain well or is it something else?
Anyone???
Maybe some apps moved to SD card, look in application settings.
If they did, just move them back to phone ;-P
Please Help!
I just started having issues like this myself. Seems like half my apps give me an error. Doesn't matter if they're on phone or sd. Started after I put in a different sd with a new android rom in it. Ginger _bread. But it would get stuck after some cyanogen mod7 animation would finish followed by an option box asking to click to install by com.android....or some other option. Either way it would just freeze on that screen. So installed my other sd card with darkstone froyo 2.2. First thing it did was asking me to tap on android to get started. Did so and skipped all the other prompts. Then it continued to load all my apps as normal but with the exception that a lot of the apps where giving me pop up errors asking to force close them. Its driving me mucking cuts! Should I reformat my sd and start from scratch? Sorry for the long explanation. Thanks in advance.

The only problem if I do that is that the internal storage of my phone gets full.
And after a while I get messaged like "Internal Storage full".
Is there maybe a way to give the internal storage a bigger capacity?
So I am getting an "couldn't install on usb storage or sd card" error with paid apps via the google play store. It is preventing updating paid apps as well as installing new ones.
I have tried a handful of different fixes found by searching XDA, rootzwiki & google but nothing has made any headway with the problem.
Specifically, I have tried:
Changing kernels as per suggestions on the internet
Faux123's 9/09 released kernel, Franco's r6, Trinity Seven, default kernels with PA2.10-2.12 as well as the default kernel with AOKP build 1
I tried to find the smdl2tmp.asec file in the two places I found mentioned through my previous searches, but I am assuming that its location is for versions < JB since those directories don't seem to be present on my N7.
Many people also mention unmounting -> remounting the SD card fixes their issues, but with only the one storage location in the N7 it doesn't seem to apply to this device, unless I am really missing something.
I've also cleared the play stores cache specifically as well as doing a full on cache+dalvik cache clear from TWRP.
On AOKP the problem appeared immediately after flashing the new ROM but with ParanoidAndroid the problem manifested itself later. With PA I have been able to install paid apps but after a certain point it begins to kick this error my way. This would be acceptable since I don't use many paid apps except for the fact it is also blocking updates. Also, I don't think it is a faulty SDcard as everything else seems to work fine with regards to it.
If there is more useful information I can give please let me know and I will. Any ideas and advice is appreciated.
EDIT: I just read a workaround where someone installed the app on another device and then dropboxed themselves over the apk. I don't have another android device to try this with, but another idea would be to install the app manually after google play downloads it, but I can't seem to locate where the play store puts the files it downloads.
I am having that exact same problem with my Motorola Droid RAZR Maxx after installing a new ROM. I have actually installed two different ROM's, and I keep getting the same error message: "Couldn't be installed to USB storage or SD card."
I have tried searching for that tmp file, but couldn't find it. I also re-mounted the SD card, and I tried installing the app with the SD card safely removed and installed.
I can't even install my favorite XDA-Developers app, so I'm using the browser to navigate the forums. I dislike browsers.
