hello, i have a problem with samsung galaxy note 2:
I got root permission (by Chainfire) and I did the reset of the counter with triangle away ( I have also checked in download mode and it says that it's fine).
Anyway every time I try to install any application from google play it says error insufficient storage available and that's false! I have 10gb of free space on internal sd.
I tried to install many apps (especially busybox, the one I was trying to install when the error appeared first) but I couldn't install anything from google play.
The only 2 apps I could install were a root file manager and link2sd , but to do that i had to place the .apk file on the esternal microsd with my computer, browse for that and launch the installation.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Go in you applications setting chose play store and delete cache

and again once restarted go to CWM and do the same one more time
enter CWM
format cache
advanced format cache

I tried this method but it does not help
Had the same issue yesterday - over night the system took over 4gb extra space . Factory reset solved the issue.
I used to get this on my Desire HD, even with loads of space left available. Clearing Play Store cache would fix it for a few weeks and then it would happen again. I've yet to encounter the problem on my GN2 though.
I'm having the same problem on my Galaxy Note 2 n7100 and it's really annoying me now. I've tried EVERY solution possible but nothing works...
Delete Play Store cache
Un install Play Store updates
Search for and delete Odex files
Run Lucky Patcher
Run MarketFix
Boot into CWM recovery, delete cache, delvik, fix permissions
I've even done 2 complete factory resets, downloaded the apps again and then used Titanium Backup just to restore the app data... Nothing works. Once the apps are reinstalled it won't let me download and new apps or update apps (well, SOME apps will update, others won't).
I've got 8gb of internal memory, over 30gb of SD card memory and over 800mb of memory on the internal partition.
Can anyone offer me a solution that will fix this issue??
install root explorer,go to the carpet data,app and search the app wich you have problem to install and erase it,and with that yo should be able to install it, it works for me
this is an example with the app that was causing me problems com.maxmpz.audioplayer-1.odex all id this was delete it

I had this issue too and i just couldnt fix it. Finally i just decided to do factory reset and after that install the Ext2SD hack and so far it seems to be ok wth fingers crossed.

Hi
What are the luckypatcher and the Ext2SD hack?
Thanks for your answers.
This issue is cause by people using app2sd apps. Sammy phones can't use app2sd as the system sees extsd as the path which is not accepted by the system.
If you have app2sd installed remove it and reboot.
If you using Rom Toolbox change the app2sd feature to automatic.
I had this issue a few months ago and this solution worked for me.
via XDA Premium HD - GT-N7100 - Omega Rom - Neak Kernel - TWRP Recovery
Solution to your problem!
Found the solution to this!!
For everyone that is getting this error you probably have Link2SD installed, simply go in the settings of the app and go to where it says "install location" then simply change it from external to automatic!
Let me know if it works for you guys!

A thousand thanks, almost unrooted and wiped my tab, tried it and PRESTO! Error gone. Should add this info in the post about installing link2sd, just a thought.
Thanks again!!!

HELP! I am running the latest SPRINT LOVERS ROM and have been having an issue with downloading NEW apps from the market and also installing updates to APPS. I could not get ANYTHING to install or download using the LATEST MARKET so I flash the OLD market to my phone. for the past week or so, I have been able to download SOME new apps and update SOME APPS. However, some apps, I had to uninstall and THEN reinstall or else I would get a INSTALL FAILED message. Now as of today, I cant download ANY new APPS as it downloads and then TRIES to install and I get a DOWNLOAD FAILED. In CATLOG I see "DEXOPT FAILED" and it references the downloaded file I was just downloading.
How do I fix this so that I can download again. I see in the android market forum that LOTS of people are having this issue but there is no resolution. I though it might be the memory card but I tried a different one and SAME issue. I also cleared the cache and DALVIK cache and same issue (the dexopt failed mentions the DALVIK CACHE). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Well, you can try reflashing the rom, going into apps clearing the market cache, reboot, or flash the newest gapps.

I have tried all of that.. SAME issue.. I'm not the only one with this issue.. I did a google search and a LOT of people have this issue.. all over different forums and the android market forum too!
GOOGLE must know about this and why arent they saying anything? there was a forum message that even had a google employee who commented and said they were working on the issue but no response again...

Go into recovery and wipe ur cache. The market stores apps there when downloading before it installs to the correct file on ur phone

The problem isn't the market, well the upgrading/installing new apps part isn't. There is a temp file that is on your sd card which is for the market, if that file gets corrupted or flagged with low on space, it'll prevent updates/new installs from happening. To fix this you need to delete that file, you can only see this file via plugged into a computer as a storage device then go to .android_secure and in there will be a random named file with .tmp at the end. Just delete that, unmount and restart the phone, after that it's back to installing again.

I dont have that TMP file in the folder mentioned. I know whichj on you are referring to and a while back I had this file which prevented me from installing files.. But I dont have it now.. any other ideas??
Note: the file is called smdl2tmp1.asec and I dont have it ...
Now something else strange... I SHOULD be able to download and install APPS with the card unmounted.. I cant EVEN download an APP if the card is mounted on the PC or unmounted from the phone settings.. any ideas
Also I notice that some times the phone will reboot while doing an install from market. I googled and saw others with this issue.

OK well I found something on another forum that mentioned re-flashing the ROM overtop fixed the market errors.. Well, it put the NEW market back and I cant download or INSTALL anything. I now am flashing the old market back.. any ideas? the new market wont even start a download as it ERRORS right away with DOWNLOAD failed...
Hi, it seems that i have installed 2 roms on my nexus gsm. One is the manhattan rom and the other is the Team Kang Milestone 4. Have tried the manhattan one first, camera app lets me take photos, but when i want to browse through the photos, it wont allow me. i use gallery, and it said, "no storage, no external storage available". same thing happened when i install the team kang milestone 4. now im worried, plz help. is it rom problem or phone problem? sry for my bad eng...
Try downloading a file, or otherwise exploring your storage to see if that is the issue. Then go to settings -> apps -> all and clear the data for gallery.
Are you wiping everything between flashing different roms?
Storage no issue. Available 10gb. tried the settings part. doesnt work. Im wiping everything when im installing rom, but after wiping everything i install the milestone 4 and a aokp theme. tried manhattan, also the same problem
someone plz help...
same problem =/ everything works fine except the gallery app, tried AOKP build 31 and Black ICE 31.31...
Bring up the thread.
Stock Gallery app (from AOKP B34) showed "No external storage available" then quitted. QuickPic can see everything, but keeps showing up "unable to open database file" and had to cache again everything. The MTP file transfer isn't working properly right now, everything takes a very long time to show up.
I rebooted like 50 times already. Also tried wiped and reflashed. Already tried Android Revolution HD wipe zip file. No difference.
Anyone managed to fix this?
Edit: Fixed this using the ToolKit, re-locked and re-unlocked the bootloader, everything on the sdcard card folder gone. Must have been something wrong with the partition. Anyway, this is shame. Gotta be some more civilized way to do this.
Same problem here, "No external storage available" when opening the Gallery app.

This does not help for me.
I already did that before flashing the ROM to have a really clean device.
are you guys doing full wipes here?
in cwm
1) wipe cache/factory reset
2) mounts and storage > wipe /system
3) flash rom
4) flash gapps
5) advanced > wipe dalvik
6) reboot phone
I have this same problem, AOKP b36 and franco kernal M3.
Gallery won't open but ES file explorer etc can see the photos fine.
Full wipe did not fix it.
Just backing everything up and will try lock/unlock bootloader
edit: hooray, locking/unlock did indeed fix the problem. Thanks

i use gallery, and it said, "no storage, no external storage available".

I also had this problem with QuickPic (on a different device). Solved the problem by formatting the sdcard. I did NOT need to touch the system.
I do have something strange with my Ace 2 8160I mobile.
I installed [ROM][JB-XXMB2] KYRILLOSv6B **Fast n' Lite** (23/02/2013) and I'm also using the app. DROIDSail app2SD lite so I can remove some apps to my sd-card.
But the problem is that all the apps which I removed to the sd-card are disappeard from my phone after the moment I do a reboot so I have to install them again but this is not the correct way of working of course.
Does somebody know what is going wrong with this and how I couyld solve this?
Please post in Q and A thread! Please don't create new ones!
maybe the dalvik cacha for those apps is still on the sd..Use link2sd for this operations..
I get the same issue when restore apps with titanium and reboot

I installed link2sd but I do have the same problem as with the other app but I get the underneath message:
Symbolic link - second partition not found
/dev/block/mmcblk1p2:device not found
Be sure to have a second partiotion on your sd-card and that they are both primary
And I really don't know what to do now

Hi i have got a problem with instalation apps on Galaxy S4.
I'm trying to install one application, but my phone report me that I have not space to internal storage. But i have got 4,2gb free space and the app has only 10mb...
On my SGS4 i have Omega rom and root.. I tried restart and wipe davik cache and cache but it still reports the same thing.
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Thanks for the answer.
PS: Sorry for bad english...
What app you trying to install?
☞ Sent from here☜???
Maybe this is "eating up" all upir precious storage space
If you have made any clockworkmod backups, they might be stored n the folder :
Data/Media/Clockworkmod
You can try using root explorer to move those files to the EXT SDcard, and you can also try this:
Dial "*#9900# and select option 2 "Delete dumpstate/logicat" in the prompted menu to regain some of the storage that has been used up by the system.
Aloha and Good Luck!
BTW: if you don't have an EXT SDCard, copy your backup files to a computer before you clear all the logcat stuff. You might have to someday restore your backups and that would be a safety net for you.
Using TWRP today I wiped dalvik and cache, then fix permissions. On reboot, apps see internal storage as read-only. For example backup folder settings in Titanium show internal as non-writable, but external is OK. Swiftkey can't update language modules. Other apps have similar problems, think a permission is messed up, anyone know a fix? Thanks.
I had this issue and the only fox was to wipe using kies and not root. When I started using root and xposed, etc, that's when that started occurring.
Been rooted, xposed running with wanam, external card writable, phone running fast, still running well with no lag. Believe it's a simple permission issue messed up fixing permissions in TWRP. Might have to just Odin stock and start over.

I would recommend posting this question in the TWRP thread. I just had the same problem after wiping and fixing permissions. I even tried restoring the backup I made before hand with no luck.
There is also a kit kat fixer app in the play store that will make the SD card writable for apps. You need root though.
I had to use kies to wipe the phone, rerooted, now it works fine.

Follow those instructions. But I think you have to start clean.
Used the full tar with Odin from shabbypenguin, my apps remained, cf-root, then flashify TWRP, all is well again. Just won't fix permissions in TWRP until corrected.

As Darkman mentioned, there is a fix for the SD card issue in the Play store, called NextApp SD Fix. After having just attempted an unsuccessful Titanium Backup of my Note 4 to a "not writable" SD card, I searched and found a posting about this fix and just finished installing it. After a reboot, problem solved! The fix does require a rooted phone, so if you're unwilling to forsake your warranty, given rooting will trip the Knox flag, then you'll have to deal with the frustration of keeping some space free in device memory for apps that would otherwise use the SD card, and move files to it manually as needs dictate.

To clarify, fixing permissions in TWRP makes INTERNAL non-writable, external works fine, the app you mentioned fixes external SD card write permissions.
Oops...attack of tunnel vision. Thanks William.
I have the same problem. =(
(But actually I'm using a Galaxy S4, SGH-I337M. Exact same problem)
I flashed an AOSP ROM then restored my Stock TouchWiz backup. From now, the apps can't write to the internal storage
I did fixed the permissions but when the problem started to occur. I don't remember having fixed the permissions before the problem showed up.
So restoring factory from Odin would do it?
Then can I restore my current TWRP backup, or will the problem show up again? Is this happening exclusively with "Fix Permissions" ?
Thank you very much
EDIT: This fix worked =) Even if it was intended for the Note 3 and I have S4.

App only read
How to make data from one app to be permanent, and they can not be erased with factory reset? it's possible?
For those having issues with TB, have you tried this option:
Storage Provider: Document Storage Provider
That should fix the R/W issues to the SD card.
Also, I believe MM has the SD card as read-only as a default. You'll have to go into app permissions to allow access to the SD card on a per app basis if you're not prompted for it. I had that issue with Hangouts where I wasn't able to change the notification sounds and I tinkered around with the app permissions and enabled access to the SD card and fixed my issue.
