Rom: CyanogenMod-7 for Desire GSM V7.0.2.1
Also did the simple2ext(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917377)
i have clicked the following:
Application
Private apps
Application Data
Dalvik cache
(because still not enough space for just clicking Private apps..)
Setting:
Advanved mode
Mount as ext4
i can sure that i have enough free space for new apps,
but when i tried to install apps, it said there is not enough space on my phone.
What happen?
i rebooted my phone, and successfully installed one apps,
but when i tried to install another apps, it said the apps have not been installed.
and it didn't install the apps for me.
What happen??
can anyone help?
After you've rebooted, how much space is free (look at "info" in s2e)? Enough?
I've had a couple of instances where apps have downloaded but not installed. Normally changing between WiFi/mobile data and/or market/appbrain seems to fix it. Haven't really paid much attention, but I think I may have been on WiFi when it hasn't worked.

I purchased a Quickoffice app to install but I cannot. I tried installing other apps and I get the same problem. I get a dialogue box that tells me that my phone is out of space and that I need to free up some space. But my phone's intenal storage can still handle about 138MB. And the apps especially Quickoffice is just 5MB. I went to manage apps on my phone and cleared as much data as I could. I even cleared some RAM memory just to free up some space. But I still can't install any app I download. What do I do? Do I have to get my phone reformatted? Thanks.
P.S. My phone's upgraded to 2.2 Froyo and have allowed download/installation of apps from non-market sources. Thanks!
I have seen references to a similar problem, but no resolution that has worked for me (or many others)... just a lot of dead end discussions.
My rig:
HTC Desire
LeeDroid 3.07
A2SD+
I had moved a few apps to SD just as an experiment to see how it affected my internal storage space. After doing that I am unable to update any apps, or install new ones. Some apps are no longer recognised by the Market as being installed even though they're in my app drawer and I can use them.
When I try to update or install an app, after accepting permission I see the download icon appear briefly (1-2 seconds) in the notification bar and then it disappears...
Things I've tried:
Clearing Market cache and data
Deleting files from .android_secure (this broke a lot of apps)
rebooting countless times
trying over and over again to install and/or update
My next step is to just wipe and start again, but I'm loath to do this unless I absolutely have to and would prefer to find a solution...
Any help is appreciated!
make sure your time and date is correct
I've had the same problem on my Desire. What I had to do to fix it was to reformat my SD card (specifically the ext partition).
Make sure you back up all your SD card data before doing this. I hope it helps.

I am having this problem right now.. weird..
tried via wifi and 3g.. cant download anything. I have more than 750 MB of space free
I'm also having this problem. If anybody could help it would make my day I updated to the newest market, wiped all the caches (dalvik, market, etc). I don't know what else I can do. I have 751 megabytes free for apps.
I tried to update an app today and the play store was giving me an insufficient storage error message. Clearly this shouldn't be the case as I have several gigs free on the phone. I've tried several things indicated online for other phones that people had problems with including the following:
Retry the update several times
Reinstall the app, I can't even fresh install the app as it gives me the error too....
Reboot phone
Clear unused apps/junk
clear data/caches for download manager + play store
Pretty much at a loss here for what else to try.
I did notice that there is a clockworkmod folder taking up 800MB, its apparently used for backup purposes. Whats the best way to view the actual partitioning of the phone to see what the real storage usage is?
EDIT: Even stranger... I can install other apps that are much larger apks.....
EDIT2: Sorry.. I figured it out, I cleared out the odex file for the app and installed it again.
So I previously ran into issues with Link2SD not recognizing my 2nd partition, so I eventually reformatted it.
However, I've now run into issues with being unable to install any applications, as well as my system data showing up as one massive single block instead of the individual applications - http://i.imgur.com/ksukQGG.png.
Looking deeper, Android itself (and Link2SD for that matter) both report my app data as 0.00b for every single application. However, I know the applications are working because I've been using them. I also know the app data still exists because I went to the exact directory (/data/data/app) and found that the individual app data files were all still there.
So I guess my issue now is how to link the app data back to the app itself? And I would like help figuring out how this happened as well...
Edit:
So here - Aldiko definitely should have data and cache, but it shows 0 - http://i.imgur.com/QBWznRD.png
And this is the error that I get if I try to use the default Android Move2SD option (the original one), or if I try to install an app - http://i.imgur.com/yr2GoUW.png
bump...?
Apparently there are a lot of people who have looked for help on this issue in various forms, so googling all day and looking around has not helped.
I have Android 4.0.4 and a Pantech Burst that has been rooted. I downloaded Titanium Backup and removed some programs that were perma installed by the manufacturer. I backed them up before I did this. Now the system drive shows I have a bunch of space free, 326MB out of 1GB. Using other apps I am not sure. "Drives" shows two internal storages "Data" which has 681MB used and 326MB free and "System" which has 464MB used and 77MB free. I assume these are both the internal partition.
Trying to install anything from the Play Store results in a 'insufficient space' except for some really small apps. Since I don't know exactly how much space I have to work with, I can only guess. Uninstalling some apps normally doesn't allow me to install new ones either. Sometimes the phone will just eat the space.
I tried restoring a app with Titanium Backup and it seems to have worked, however the app is no longer in my normal system 'apps' utility. So I can't modify it or uninstall it anymore.
The apps aren't backed up to the system storage, they're on external storage.
I tried clearing the dalvik cache and system cache, this didn't help or do anything.
Any sort of help would be great.

Bro.. Use link2sd app to move apps to system.
Or uninstall bloatware from system.

That's not really what's wrong. I'm not too familiar with android, but I'm pretty sure my volumes aren't reporting deleted space that is actually free. I tried a program like CleanMaster to try and fix it as well as App Cache Cleaner, but they haven't seemed to help even though they reported that they fixed quite a few things initially.
It seems like whenever I uninstall something if I go through the system and look at apps, it shows more free space available. However when I try to install something new, it still says 'insufficient space'. Somehow the free space is not being freed up or marked as free for the system.
I almost want to say Titanium Backup is not giving the freespace back to the system and is instead just marking it as free, but not for the system. If that makes sense. So the system can't use it.
I can use Titanium Backup to restore apps even though the system says I have insufficient storage when I try to reinstall them. I shouldn't be able to do this without free space available. However when I do this I can't see it in the market or in the normal settings > apps on the system and in order to reintegrate it I need the pro version of Titanium Backup. I think TB isn't playing nice with the rest of the system in order to get you to buy a pro version of it.
