Can't Install From Market or Amazon App Strore

Over the past few days, I've been unable to install new apps or update existing ones from the Android Market or the Amazon App Store on my Samsung Infuse with a 32 GB MicroSD Card.
In the Android Market, it will usually say there is insufficient space to install or it will perpetually sit at "downloading" In the Amazon App Store, it will download the app but it will perpetually sit on INSTALLING and never complete.
I've done several reboots, sever cache clears, battery pulls, unmounting of the SD card and even booted without SD card and then back again. I've seen other fixes like moving apps off the SD card and back on and that is too troublesome.
Could it be the recent updates to the Android Market? If so, why would it affect the Amazon Appstore?

I removed the updates from the Market...same problem with both markets...so I tried a regular APK file..gets stuck with INSTALLING.
More than frustrating now...

What rom are you guys running?

Clear Data on both apps

I've done that...I am starting to wonder if the data on the external SD is getting corrupt.

I just yanked my 32 GB card and tried a few installs on internal card and it works like a charm. Any suggestions on how to prevent memory card corruption? I didn't seem to have this problem on my Captivate with a 16GB microSD.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions...I believe it may be the 32GB MicroSD card as this is the third time this occurred and my wife's phone with a 16 doesn't seem to have this issue. I went back to a 16GB card and everything installs...for now...except for a larger program which says I have insufficient space to install.

Unable to use 'GL to SD' after upgrading to ics

As our phone has an incrediblely small internal storage, swapping SD cards and using GL to SD is the only hope to play more Gameloft or other big memory games. It worked for me when I was using Ganesh's Cm7.2. However, after flashing Dhiru's Cm9, i found the app not working anymore and asked me to download the files again!!
What should I do???

If you used Ti backup,you must clear data of gltosd.

Also check the two checkboxes are checked in setting.
sdcard is mnt/emmc not mnt/sdcard/externalsd.
/mnt/emmc is the new mount point for sdcard in ics.
Then at bottom of settings, click recover game list.
i had same issue and mine is resolved by this . hope that will also work for you

Can't install new apps from Google Play, "insufficient storage" message

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:

Are the apps you are trying to install ones you have installed before?

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.

Look for link2sd on the market. This app will move your apps to your sdcard then create a reference point for the OS to find the app. The draw back is it's a little technical to set this up. You need to create 2 partitions on your sd card, first partion is fat32 to store your normal stuff and the second partion formatted with ext4 for the apps. Currently there is no other app can move app to sd.

Why would you need it anyway? 32 or 64 GB of space not enough for apps?

Why do you need to move apps to SD card? That's an old froyo thing isn't it?

GL to SD

I believe this only for game data only not regular apps! Also not all games will work with this.

Well, let's say that some apps requires a certain patch that only works when the patch is applied to an app that has been moved to the SD card :fingers-crossed:

You can also use the app directory bind to do this on ICS or JB.

With large apps like GTA3, GTA Vice CIty, and Madden, even with a 32g card being able to move large apps to sd would be a godsend. Its making my god tablet slow being filled up. Be nice to find a workaround...

Thanks dear.
Is there any other option without rooting your device?

If you do not wish to root your device then your only option will be to start deleting stuff to make more room.

I have this very same problem but it's nothing I have installed. I get the 'No free space on storage, click here to free some room' and then it shows me whats taking so much space, its only apps in this list, and that is ~80MB out of 3.9GB.
I used a rootexplorer to look around in the phone for some weird cache but found nothing. Nothing.
Please help, it even tells me I cannot receive any text messages.
Oh and..
Rooting is not an option since it's not my phone (borrowing it for.. probably a while..).
Wiping is not an option either.. :/
Any good apps for searching for weird stuff like this?
Thanks in advance.
