I installed DlevROM the other night and everything was working flawlessly until I rebooted my phone. After the reboot all my downloaded apps including the Market are greyed out and show the SD logo right next to them. I'm pretty sure all my apps are installed on the internal part of my phone not the external SD card. This is the second ROM to do this and I'm not sure if its the roms or just somethign crashing on my phone.
To add: I re downloaded the apps that are greyed out and installed them. They work up until I reboot. Once I reboot they disappear.
had same problem did factory reset in rom redownloaded apps and problem went away
Go to settings>applications>manage applications> on SD card....and click on each one and choose move to phone....they're downloading on SD card if you move them to phone it should solve that issue

I formatted my card for ext2 and swap and am Using A2SD with Modaco 1.1 but the battery widget no longer works. How do I move it back to internal storage?
Also the Handcent widget won't work so I have to just use a shortcut, is this something taht is known to not work from sd? is it possible to use droid explorer to move these applications to internal memory also, I'm that that good with the console.
did you uninstall them then reinstall them after the rom reboot
ap2sd works when you have and ext2 on your sd card, it creates and envronmental variable to tell android that all the user installed apps are now on the sd card.
if you installed these apps before you formated your sd card to ext2 the data for these apps... executeables etc are still located in data/app instead of /system/sd/app
blah blah... long story short, uninstall the app and reinstall it via market. There might be an additional problem with the app uninstalling because android doesn't know where to look for the original app.
in that case try turning off your phone
removing the sd
restart the phone
uninstall the app agian (the link will be restored at that point)
turn off the phone
put the sd card back in
turn phone back on,
reinstall the app you want
It seems that with Modaco's rom the apps automatically moved to the system/sd/apps at least thats where they all show up when I look for them in the console. Long story short though everything started working after enough time and a restart and they are on the sd card now. It was just odd that they wouldn't for a while when everything else was working. It works now though.

might be the boot cache that's doing it then
yeah, im using handcent and experienced the same widget problem.
It happens when you update a program that is stored on the sdcard. There's another thread in here that talks about it in more details, but you basically have to remove the contents of the boot-cache folder and restart the phone for it to rebuild all the data.
Works perfectly after this...but everytime you update you will have to do this.
You could probably just move the handcent program to the phone (i.e. off the sdcard) to fix this issue. Follow the same methods that are described in the thread that talks about fixing google maps/google voice search....its the exact same principals:

I am also having the same problem at the moment on my Hero! I tried wiping it and flashing a new rom and gapps and it is still not working. I tried un mounting sd card and switching in and out of airplane mode...any help would be appreciated!
I got it...
After filtering through some of the threads I came across some different solutions. Clearing the cache in download manager works for some people. It didn't for me. But this did. I unmounted my sd card and I could download apps! Hoorah! But what happened? My apps werent being saved to sd anymore...why would it matter if it was mounted or not? So I decided to backup all my data that was on my sd card to my computer and formated the sd card. Then I tried to download an app and it worked right away! Im currently restoring my sd card with data so I will try it again in about 5 mins.
We solved this problem.
First. Download CyanogenMod. Then install it from recovery.
When your phone opened you can able to download from market.
If you reboot your phone it will be unable.
Then go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Select All
Select Market and Delete Data ( Not cache ) ( You cant delete data in 2.1 Eclair You need to Cyanogen or 2.2 )
Then your market fixed.
Enjoy
Just started getting this myself, none of the steps has worked so far, removing and reinserting SD card and SIM, clearing cache and data on Market, cleared cache in recovery, nothing. I recently flashed CM 6.0.2 and this is when it started to happen. The first download worked, but every attempt after the first one doesn't, but it DOES work over 3G but it's slower than wifi.
I restored back to teppic74's froyo and it works just fine, might have something to do with CM6 for some reason.
I am looking for an app or way to clean up the SD card. When I try to install any new apps I get Installation Error - Insufficient Storage Available. I looked at the storage and it says I have the following
System: ROM 325mb (84mb free)
Internal: 1.59gb (1.22gb free)
DB Data: 109mb (75.2mb free)
SD card: 15.8 gb (7.50gb free)
It doesn't seem to me as if there is any storage capacity issues, what am I missing. Any ideas.
I use the paid version of SD maid. I don't know if that will fix your issue but it is a good app to clean up the internal as well as external SD card,.
I will try that.

I get the same error when trying to download any apps. I lost several like google earth, adobe reader ect and tried to reinstall them and get the error. I tried to download the suggested app and same error....any thoughts?
you may have a issue with the SD card. It possible reformating the sd card may help. Could back up your SD card on your PC format it and then try installing a app. If that fixes it, then you could just copy your files back to the SD. Just an idea
I formatted the SD card, then used Ti backup to move all apps to the SD card. Tried to install an app and got the same failed error. Any thoughts?
When you install a app does it install first to the phone then you move to sd or just install straight to sd? And if installing to phone first does error occur during install or during the move from phone to sd?

It seems to be installing apps to the phone, then I move to the SD card. Not all apps move though. I installed a couple smaller apps today and it worked fine but when attempting to install Google Earth I get the error again.
K. Let me see what it does on my phone with google earth.
K so it move fine for me. Do you have a spare sd card you could try and see what it does. That's the only thing I could see doing that. I guess its possible the phone may not be reading it right but it seems more of a sd issue.
Tap-a-Talked
No, I will have to pick one up. I tried ebay app and it gave me the same error, I don't know what's going on.
Honestly me either. It seems as if it truley was a sd issue it would do it no matter what app it was or how big it is. Since its being picky about which ones gives you errors it is 50/50 shot its a sd issue. Only thing I can say is try a different sd and if it still does it then it is something in the phone. I would just get a cheap one and see what it does.
Tap-a-Talked
Go to settings and manage applications. See if some of your missing applications or apps that will not load are listed but have a generic android icon and are named strange. I had about 15 apps that would not restore from Titanium Backup correctly. I finally found the issue under manage apps, deleted the affected apps, and restored them. This may not help you but its worth checking.

Will do, thanks.
I get this message with quite a few apps as well. The one that is really ticking me off is that I can't install Lookout. I have moved most apps to the SD card and there is plenty of room on both the SD card and the internal memory. I am running Heinz 57 ROM EE19.
Any ideas on what could be causing this?
I still don't have a clue as to what caused it but after switching to EE19 and Heinz 57 my issues went away. Not a solution just worked for me.

And that seems to be what started it for me. I guess I will flash back to stock EE19 and start over.
I wiped data/factory reset. After that I flashed the stock EE19, CwM 3, Heinz 57 6/6 and rubbed one out. That order seemed to work for me, but now I feel kind of sleepy. The storage problem is fixed.
So i have the latest devesh CM10.1.2 installed on my phone
The phone froze and automatically tried to reboot but all i got was a black screen

THX IN ADVANCED
Hi! I installed Speedmod Kitkat 4.4.2 and almost everything works great but the problem is that my device wont recognize my sd card. If I go to settings storage I can see my 16gb sd card there but If I open camera or gallery it will show no external memory. For gallery I used 3rd party app and it worked but for camera no. Help someone!
Go to settings, tap memory, check ''Use external SD as primary", reboot, then uncheck it and reboot
If doesen't work, try to reinstall the rom
I tried checking and unchecking then but didnt work, I have reinstalled rom about 4 times and still nothing. I cant use most of my fav apps and only 800mb memory. Any other solution plz.
