[Completed] Insufficient Storage issue of Google Play Store - XDA Assist

Hi guys. I am starting a new thread for this issue, because I have practically tried every possible options to solve the Insufficient storage issue, with no result! Sometimes an app doesn't start downloading, the error box opens showing " There is insufficient space in your internal storage and SD card, please free up some space...." Some other times, the app downloads fully, but can't be installed as the error box appears again - "Insufficient storage."
My device is Lenovo A6000, it's just a few months old. I have more than 500MB in my internal storage and a little less than 6GB on my external SD. I am running Android ver 4.4.4 and have my Play Store updated to the latest version since it automatically updates itself.
I have tried these ways:-
1. Deleting Cache.
2. I uninstalled the updates to Play store to revert it back to the factory version. It worked well for some time, then again the same issue.
3. I unmounted the SD card and remounted it again.
If I transfer an app from another device via ShareIt, I can install it perfectly!
I don't want to root my device just as yet. I mean, isn't there any good way to solve this issue? Is factory resetting the only option here?:crying::crying:
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give.

[Q] Error downloading apps

I have been having this problem for quite sometime now. I have a Galaxy S Plus running on Android Gingerbread. Whenever I`m trying to download any apps I always get this error:
Update for "App Name"/ could not be downloaded due to an error. (905)
I have googled this problem and found out that I should just clear the cache of Google Play and the data of the Download Manager. I did this and it worked for a while however the problem keeps on coming back. I am already tired of repeating the steps over and over again. Now it`s gone worse, I cannot download anything. The same error keeps on coming up even if I already cleared the cache and data.
I believe I have sufficient space on my phone (phone, USB storage and SD card). Please help me out with my problem! THANK YOU.
Download gapps.zip for your device from xda.
Copy it to the sd card and flash using clock work mode.
The problem will be solved

Insufficent storage available

Hi, has anyone ever experienced this problem?
Whenever I try to install an app from the Play Store, it keeps telling me "insufficent storage available" even though I have more than 500mb free on internal storage and more than 1gb on sd-card.
I guessed it happens because I used Lucky Patcher before, and then I wiped dalvik cache and some apps crashed. Later on it won't let me install app or ever.
Can someone please help me out? I'd appreciate
EDITED: I finally get it working.

[Completed] i keep getting insufficient space and storage errors on my android tablet

Is a Active_L10A1G running android 4.2.2
I get frequent insufficient storage space errors when i attemptto update apps. Also been getting other insufficient errors.
I have been advised to go the rooting method in order to fix the problem.
I downloaded an app called 'Fix me storage' which would run and referred me to your website.
Can you please point me in the right direction as it is driving me insane.
My tablet has more than enough storage to handle updates.
CPU 4core
Ram 1024Mb

Hi RonBus,
unfortunately there is nothing about your exact device on xda.
To free some space on your internal memory/sd card, you may have to uninstall some apps, move some files to other partitions (or external memory/sd card if available).
You can also use some cleaner apps from Play store (e.g. CleanMaster) to identify some junk files which can be removed.
If you need further help, please register on xda and post in the [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly. by immortalneo.
Good luck !

[Solution] [Marshmallow] App disappears after reboot

I am using Android one device running stock marshmallow, which brings in new feature to use ur external storage as phone storage.
After installing mxplayer, it gets installed directly on sdcard but when i reboot my device, the app disappears as if it was never installed.
NOTE : This is happening on apps that get directly installed on sdcard. Suppose an app gets installed on internal storage first and then i move it to sdcard, it will remain in sdcard forever (unless i manually uninstall it).

It's not MX Player's fault.
If you install anything on external memory it's getting removed on reboot. So, Kindly install MXPlayer to Internal Memory.
Looks like there is a bug in Marshmallow update of android one devices. There is no issue in nexus devices since it doesn't come up with sdcard slot.

The issue is not there in all devices.
The issue is a bug from your rom. Not from the apps.
Only way is to force the app to install only in internal storage. But, it will affect the all users who has limted space & wants to move the app to sd.
So, it's better to move the apps yourself.

Hi, I am having the same issues with apps intalled on my Internal Memory.
I have just upgraded my LG G3 D855 to Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
Some apps (like Outlook, Google Maps, Google Translate) disappear when I reboot the phone.

It's better to ask on device specific forums rather than here since it's not a MX Ppayer Bug. Chances of getting a solution here is very less for a device issue.
curiously only mx player disappear but I see that someone said this is not a mx player fault... yoooohooooooo

[HELP] Weird "Failed to save the game..." error message occurs

"Failed to save the game. Please restart the device and try again."
This weird error message appears everytime I play "Cooking fever". I've tried everything like clearing its data, clearing play store data, play games reset, uninstalling the game. I have Huawei Honor 4C. Now I really don't know what else to do. Somebody knows about it help me?
have fix it?
:laugh:
I know im late to this post but i have a fix for this error. So far for a tablet. So my mothers tablet was giving me the error "Failed to save the game. Please restart the device and try again"
After a week of breaking my head i went to settings and to storage. I saw that there was 3 storage set for her tablet device. 1.Phone Storage, 2.Internal Sd, and 3.External Sd. I seen that the Internal Sd was not usable it was showing 0.00b. So i decided to erase the Internal Sd. Not the external Sd. Restarted the device and cooking fever is working again. I hope this work for some of ya.
