I'm getting insufficient storage available when I try to update apps. I have 505mb available. I've noticed my available storage has gone down more than the update's size everytime I update an app I think. its like the app doesn't get deleted when it updates. I've wiped dalvic and cache but hasn't fixed it. I'm using CM 10.2
I tried going to /data/app-lib/APP-PATH but the app I'm trying to install isn't there. also installed lucky patcher and tried to "Remove fixes and backups" but that option isn't in lucky patcher.

Gameboid was force closing on me, so I uninstalled it. Went to reinstall and I'm getting an installation error, "Insufficient storage available". My internal SD has 750 MB available. My app partition has 600 MB available. My external SD has 6 GB available.
In Root Explorer, I did a search for "gameboid", and deleted any related files. I wiped cache and dalvik in recovery. I tried a reinstall from Titanium, but got the same error. I'm trying to avoid a factory reset. Any suggestions?

Alright, so I recently (like 30 minutes ago) installed texasice latest ICS evervolv build and I've come across an error, but this isn't tied to this ROM, I've had this error on CM7 as well. To the point:
My "free" apps aren't showing up in "My apps" in Market, only apps I've paid for. There's nothing wrong with my sdcard or ext partition so I'll rule that out of the equation. I suspect this might be because of the low cache partition. ICS has a cache partition (for market cache) of 16 megabytes and stock partition size is 97-ish megabytes. I've checked and apparently I have 14 megabytes left out of these 16 so where is the problem?
i don't think it is cache since it is only free ones. i would say market, and maybe the it reads your particular phone--not an expert by any means
i am sure you cleared data/cache in app mgt
can you try an older version or reflash gapps
seem to remember this issue coming up before but don't remember where

Hmm.. strangely enough, my apps now show. I think wiping market cache did the trick.

glad you got it--
My Defy is once again throwing "Low on space, phone storage is getting low" error messages. When I view the list of all applications and their storage usage, the bottom of the screen displays 1.26GB used, 5.1MB free. However, if I scroll down the list and add up all of the storage being reported by the system for each app, the total is only about 191MB (I don't have a lot of apps). So, is there some type of internal storage memory leak somewhere?
I've been happily running a nightly CM7.2 build from April, and I haven't installed a new app in months. The last time this error happened, I eventually had to do a factory restore and reinstall everything to fix the internal storage limit. And after restoring all my apps and settings, the total internal storage used by the new build was less than 200MB.
Anyway, I'm throwing this out there for suggestions prior to rebuilding everything, again. I already tried wiping caches and updating to the lastest 7.2 nightly, but I'm still getting the error.
I ended up doing a factory reset and reinstallling apps from backup, but would still welcome suggestions for the next time this happens. I wasn't able to try SDMaid, because even after freeing up 130MB of internal storage, the installation would fail with an insufficient storage error . However, I did install SDMaid on the new build, so now I'm ready.
Hi,
I did a full format and installed cm11 yesterday.
While installing some apps it randomly started saying insufficient storage available but not always and biggers apps could still be installed.
I read about logcat and dumpstate but i cannot dial the number in cm dialpad and with terminal it says /data/logs is not found. Also when i search manually it is not to be found.
I did however find logcat file and dumpstate file in system/bin but they are small files (no folder with logs).
Also lost and found folder is empty.
Already have 4 GB free storage space but still het the error.
I tried many cache cleaner and general Cleaners and also deleted dalvik cache and formated cache partition but nothing helped.
I dont want to Factory reset again cus i already lost a lot of time configuring the phone twice.

Most of the nightlies I have used (seems to be ever second one) I was getting "insufficient Storage Space" when trying to install/update from playstore, got sick of having to reinstall EVERYTHING from scratch so I went to Goldeneye rom instead, not a problem.

Oh really?
Well it's probably the same bug then but others don't seem to have the same isue.
You are the only person i found.
I was thinking of doing a format again and installing the nightly from 8 april (its late D but if you had it with every nightly there is a big chance i will keep getting it
Damn
Try reflashing again the rom sir
Can someone tell me what's going on? I have plenty of system space and SD space but everytime I try to update any app, I get insufficient storage available. I've cleaned the cache and deleted many apps but still this remains. I even cleared Google Play Store and the data.
Never had this happen before where I couldn't fix it.
Note, this happens when I try to update or install an app from Google Play or if I try to sideload any app
Did you force "install app to sdcard directly"?
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
Install SdMaid Pro app from Play Store.. Then clean your system.
P.s. YOU NEED ROOT ACCESS
I didn't force install or side load. I have root and my system is clean. I cleared almost all caches and cleared data and cache from play store. I even cleared the dalvik cache.

Take a look if the apps are in APPLICATION MANAGER -> SD CARD and are moved to the SD CARD.
SOLUTION
1) You can make a test. Take out the SD CARD and try to update one of that apps. Go to point 2 if works and you don't get any message.
2) I had same problem. My solution was change the SD CARD coz was faulty. Good luck :highfive:

Hi
i already had this problem on my old s2 because i patched the apps with lucky patcher to remove the adds.
Lucky patcher install an odex file in the system, and this causes the problem.
If you can unpatch the apps you want to update via lucky patcher, do it. (Or maybe remove manually the odex file via an explorer)
As i didn't need to keep the datas for the apps, my solution was to uninstall the apps i wanted to update, launch lucky patcher so that it removes automatically the odex file, and reinstall the app via google play ...
