Good Morning Team,
Has anyone had a problem when attempting to download apps on their GS4g after root? Sometimes, I would have to restart my phone several times before being able to install apps(From market or SD). Thanks in advance.

Go to settings, applications, manage applications, go to all applications, find market and delete the cache.

Thanks for the reply. I've just tried that and it still does not work.
Did you do anything with titanium backup when you switched roms? Or do anything with CWM?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
No. I'm using Odin to install the roms. Any other solutions?
I know this has to be a common problem. Whenever I click "ok" to download an app from the market, it says "Install", but it is greyed out. When I attempt to install an app from my sd, it just says "installing", but the app never installs..
So, I have figured out what went wrong just in case anyone comes across the same problem. It was my SD card. After reformatting my SD card, the downloads work perfectly.

I tried doing the sd card fix but for some reason I can't partition the card while still in my phone...
What else can/should I do?

Seriously? Just browse, you don't even have to do a search, through the forums and find more out on what you can do while rooted, and if you are having problems with a specific topic, go find the thread for it and post there.

Now you can download third party apps by sideloading and you can also remove the at&t market restrictions. You can also use the app shootme, which can take a pic of your screen, similar to the iphone. Not sure what other apps require rooting.

Google is not helping me out here, searched the forum, and threads with similar titles with no luck.
Can anyone explain why TouchWiz does not like to run apps that are on your SD card? I've been replacing it with ADW, but I'd rather not so that I can get a good feel for the UI.
?? I have not run into this issue. Almost all my apps are installed in the SD card, and they run fine on TouchWiz. In fact, when I install an app from the market, it automatically installs on the SD card.

Hmm I'll take a screenshot and add it into the op, the apps show up fine, but they're greyed out and when press the icon it tells me that it's not installed on my phone.

You need to do a factory reset on the phone, then reinstall all of the apps and they won't disappear.

That worked perfectly
I've already posted a thread on this awhile ago, with no luck to finding a solution! Randomly my apps get uninstalled without me doing so. I don't relize its even fond till I to use the app and its not there. Has anyone ever heard of this happening and how to fix it. Or a setting that could be causing this issue. Been happening for awhile now.
Any help would be appreciated and thanked
I have never heard of this happening before.
Question, is it just recent apps you may have installed? Do apps you install go missing after a reboot?
Have you done anything... "interesting" to your phone? (rooting and recovery are interesting, just in case you need a metric)
The only times I have seen something like this is when apps automatically get installed on sd card. after a reboot, they weren't moved correctly so they "magically disappear". Check if they are on sd, card

You can also try going to recovery and fix permissions and then reboot
I've never heard of such an issue of applications automatically uninstalling themselves. So, you download an app from the Play Store, then reboot, and its gone? You should try a factory reset / returning back to stock, thats what I'd do.

By any chance are you using link2sd?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I've had this happen to me too. I couldn't find the app icon and when I tried to reinstall it asked me if I would like to replace existing application. As someone said before it can be an app2sd issue.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium
I personally have never had that happen with my Blaze. Every app I've ever loaded on there stays.
I know this might be somewhat of a longshot but if you're saving your apps to your microSD card you might want to either check out the card to see if its corrupted. That might be the problem.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using xda premium
This has happened to me, too. Just yesterday I noticed my facebook app was nowhere to be found.
I am using the latest dknight rom with Go Launcher. Other than the Go Launcher, I have not tweaked anything else, nor have I moved any apps to the SD card.

This issue is mainly happening on app on SD or flash memory...a restart just bring back all apps to live
Sent from my Micromax A60 using XDA
I know that problem, too. But this's happened in the past. What've I do ?
Odin stock ROM, reboot. Odin Recovery, reboot.
After that, unmount USB Storage in Setting. Try to format USB storage ( do it 3 times ) and mount again
Power off. Go to recovery, do exactly everythings in erikmm's thread. Reboot and the issue are solved
If this problem happen again because App install in SD Card. Try to unmount SDcard and factory reset
You guys have "strange" Galaxy S Blaze 4G.

Hi. May i ask you if your problem soumds like mine? Where ur apps are? in the phone memory or on sd? I install some application via the play store and after a while, an hour sometimes even a day those app will disappear by themselves , and i'm not talking about the icon but the full app, and in the meantime a warning came out from the navigation bar saying "the app xxx has been removed" because if your problem looks like mine the solution may be the same. Note that one of mine apps has been saved on the sd. In case your problem looks like mine can u please tell me the step you've made in the most easy way. I have to translate ur information in italian language and i want to be sure to understand the whole procedure.
Thx. P.s. which is the erikmm tread u r referring to? May u please copy and paste it for me?
Hi,
I installed the route 66 stock rom on my Verizon Galaxy S3, and now am getting the "insufficient Storage" error on Google Play when I try to install apps. I have lots of room on the internal and the external SD cards. I've tried clearing the data on Google play, but still won't work. Any ideas on how to fix it?
If you Google search insufficient storage space Google play there is some good info
Could this be your problem:

No, that isn't the issue. These are new apps.
How many apps do you have?

Not so many. I have lots of space on both the internal sd card and the external card.
I'm getting frustrated with this, considering wiping phone and starting from scratch, but no point unless I understand what's wrong.
Did you use lucky patcher on this app?

You have to deo-odex the app first, then install normally.
Fixed it
After trying a lot of things, I gave up, backed up everything with Titanium Backup, wiped my phone in recovery, and install the new Synergy Rom. Now works fine, and I can install apps fine. Don't know what was wrong, but just in case I installed Cache Fixer for future issues.

Normally you can clear caches and it will work otherwise uninstall the app and reinstall. If you have to uninstall make a data backup first. What it equates to is the app dev didnt put a call in to remove the app prior to installing the new version. Ive run into this with Plague Inc. and Ive sent a bug report to the app dev. I suggest the same for whatever app you are having issues with.
I've tried the whole "clear your caches and fix your permissions" thing, and, at least from what I can tell, you can't install anything through Play/Market unless you have at least ~55 MB of space available (even if you are installing to microSD or replacing a currently installed app). I'm not sure quite where the threshold is, but it is somewhere around there.
I can't answer "Why?" as it is in Google proprietary code and I don't have the source available.
I have tried clearing caches and dalvic.. also reinstalled gapps.. can't get it to work..

Have you cleared data from Google Services Frameworks? That has fixed every market issue I've ever run into. If jeff is saying it's coded to not let you install with under 55mb of space left I believe him though.
I can't be sure it's "coded that way," but I haven't found a way to get Play/Market to install when I get down somewhere below 60 MB free space, including flashing a new ROM, clearing cache, fixing permissions, reinstalling gapps, and probably a few other things I've tried. There are definitely days when I wish someone would prove my theory wrong!
I believe Jeff no doubt but I have 66.1mb available..

i have this problem when there's an update for the "Dark Jelly" theme i have. i found the only way to get it to update really is to uninstall it and then re-install. i know its a pain in the arse, but its the only way i found to update it.
I had to move some apps from the internal storage to the SD card to overcome this problem. I'm on the Galaxy Beam rom
Apps2SD problem
My Apps2sd (in ROM toolbox) was set to install to SD card automatically and as soon as I changed it AUTO (location) problem was fixed.
Anyone know how to install Apps to the SD card by default? :S
I've been using Titanium Backup to manually move my apps to the SD card.
I'm on CM9, Hefe KoD.
Can U try this?

My husband's Galaxy S 4G is having the same problem with erroneous memory capacity error message.It seems happen after he adds an app. And we are not sure why the error message goes away WHEN it does go away. Can you clear the Google Services Frameworks without removing important info he has put in the apps, or will it delete any apps?. Sorry for my ignorance of the Android system.

If you're husband's phone is rooted then you can always back up his apps and app data with titanium backup or you can make a nandroid backup through cwm that way in case anything goes wrong you have a backup to fall back to

This worked for me, thank you !!
I was having trouble installing UberSocial. I could download and install every other app (smaller and bigger in file size) except for UberSocial.
Tried the Lucky Patcher method and worked like a charm.
BTW, I should mention I have a rooted S3 but found this thread via Google .
The Jelly bean rom takes up a lot internal memory, plus it installs most of the apps from the market to the internal memory instead of SD card. I don't why, maybe the devs can answer this. I had to remove the xbmc app (97mb) in order to install anything else.
Hit the thanks button if it helps. It's my motivator to be more helpful.
I use Titanium to move all data apps to SD, I also use History Eraser before updating apps so that at all times I have over 110MB free on internal mem.

There is also a way via terminal to move cache to the sd card. It's been a while since I've needed to do that and that was on GB. If anyone is interested in the how, let me know.

Ive been working on a universal script to move stuff from internal to external, so far i have it down for my s3 and i could do one personally for the sgs4g but i want to make it universal since ALL ICS AND JB roms do this AND your storages are different when using stock compared to AOSP
