Maybe switching ROMs or re-flashing your current ROM will work. Give it a shot, backup your apps of course.

Are they apps that you have ever had installed? Try installing an app that you have never had installed and see if that works. If it does, then use a file explorer (I use astro), and see if there's anything in the folder titled ".android_secure" (without the quotes of course) on your sdcard. I actually had this problem before, and there was some left over app data that was interfering with the installation I guess
geez was hoping this would work but I just checked my astro application and checked android secure and all directories are empty. also this is a problem with applications that I ready have that need to be updated and brand new applications I am downloading from the market... I just get a triangle with an ! in the middle of itfor each application that did not successfully install... and this is a brand new problem haven't done anything different been running the newes t fresh for months now

What is your memory situation?
Froyo apps2sd ? A2sd ?
GO into recovery and clear cache and Dalvick cache.
Try wiping the market data this happened to me couldn't update or install anything and it worked
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Did you install your previous apps from the market or did download apk's then install them? Try Settings>Applications>Manage Clear market cache and data that might work like the other person said. Check your memory. What rom are you using? Try backing everything up then go do a factory reset and then setup up your google account that's what I did when that happened to me months back and seemed to work. Hope I helped
Hello everyone. My friend rooted my EVO for me about two months ago and I went CRAZY downloading roms and themes and all sorts if stuff. The problem now is my phone is FULL and so is the SD card. So my question is what can I delete off the phone using astro and still have a functioning phone. Also what can I delete off the SD card? All I want left on my phone is to keep it rooted, keep my current rom, and be able to re sync on Google contacts. I want all the apps and other roms gone.. is my best bet to unroot, hard reset and then root again? Thanks for your help.

All you have to do is go to recovery then wipe or factory reset if you will then wipe your sd card also
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Why don't you just delete the zips for roms that you aren't using? You can either use file explorer (or something like it) or put the SD card in a card reader to delete the roms. Should be able to delete the apk's that you don't want too.
You can also connect as a usb memory device to your computer and delete that way.
I would make a copy of your SD card at its present state just in case.
Cranbiz, that's the method I was using but Im not sure which files are pertinent and which ones aren't so i dont want to delete the wrong ones.

I have had similar experience and this is what I've dive:
Backup your SDcard on your PC then format your SDcard, wipe everything, transfer over your desired ROM and flash.
Now you have a clean setup and can pull anything of your backup if you need to.

Hi Guys,
I am running a rooted Galaxy Nexus with Black Bean 3.0.9 running on it now. I switched from another rom today, BAMF to be exact. Followed the correct process, wipe data/cache/dalvik.
Everything is running great, however, I am seeing all my data in the internal SD card folders (like in DCIM has all my pictures but im not seeing them in the Gallery app), and the same goes for Wallbase, Whatsapp etc which have got all that stored data in their folder, but I dont see it.
Is there a way i can relink all this data back to the apps? I think i might have updated the version of these apps and now they are not detecting it.
Not a complete newbie here, but still trying to understand the whole flashing process completely.
Would appreciate some help on this. Thanks alot!
Problem with Rom manager. Update to newest one, delete.nomedia file from sdcard root directory, clear Media Storage data, reboot

Hi, I have a problem with my patriot signature microsd 32gb on my 16gb Samsung Galaxy SIII which I use as a music and picture storage for my music player and camera
The phone is rooted and is running stock ROM and kernel
The problem:
1)when transferring music files while the sd card is in the phone, using a usb and explorer method of copying and pushing sometimes the write protected warning pops up, other times the file would copy but I could not find it in my music player/gallery, other times the file is present for a period of time but after a restart of my phone the file disappears.
NOTE: However, files that I have transferred using the microsd adapter and directly through the computer does not change at all.
2)On the default camera I have set up the external sd card as the default location for pictures, but when I take a picture sometimes the warning that "sd card cannot be located and default storage is changed back into phone"
3)On Android Commander when I try to push music files it always ends up as permission denied
4)When I try to copy music through the windows explorer this message pops up "the device has either stopped working or is not responding"
What I attempted:
I thought it was a formatting problem and so I tried to format the sd card using both my phone and pc into the phone's desired FAT32 format,
but the problem persists.
I have also inserted the sd card into the adapter and put the write protected switch up thinking it was a permissions problem
Is it a faulty card? or am I doing something wrong?
Additional Note:
1)I have both ES file explorer and Root explorer and when I attempt to change the permission on my external sd card which usually appears in ES file explorer as "rwx-rwx-r(blank)x" it always fails
2)When opening the gallery and trying to view some of the photos saved in the external sd card, it would appears as unable to load and just a black screen.
3)I also export playlists from itunes in m3u format and puts it in a playlist folder in the sd card but it would never appear when I try to see it in a file explorer, although using poweramp I can import the list, but the old ones that I have placed on the card is also present unable to find them or delete them in either the phone or the pc
I have really became desperate trying to solve this problem
Please help me
Try reformatting as exFat. Also I don't think you can change the permissions on the entire sdcard.
It could also be that the phone connects using MTP. There's an app here on xda called sgs3 easy ums. It will mount the card as a UMS device. Try transferring that way.
I think the sgs3 was intended to use the exFat format though.

I have a problem with my card right now for my SDS3 (see sig) but my problem is completely different from yours. Hope that helps solve your problem.

That's weird. If it doesn't pick up your card then the problem might be more serious than you think. But how can you see the contents and be able to format it yet utilities like Easus and SDFormatter can't see the drive? Did you try disconnecting all USB flash drives, your phone or other devices connected to your computer first? Check explorer and see to it that your card is the only one connected with a drive letter. Go to SDFormatter, hit refresh and make sure the drive letter is chosen.
SDFormatter just fixed the problem I was having.
You said you were rooted stock. Did you do any debloating or anything else to it. I doubt its the case but maybe something needed was accidentally removed.
Have you tried running fix permissions in recovery or TiB?
Also, how did you root? Was it recent and did the card function properly before? If you used odin to flash a rooted fw, maybe it was a bad download?
If all else fails, you could try reflashing the full stock fw with Odin.

1)I didn't do any debloating for my phone, and how do you run fix permissions in recovery? or TiB?
2)I root my phone by following this guide "How to Root U.S. and Canada Galaxy S3 SGH-T999/SGH-I747/SPH-L710! [Fail-Proof][Noob-Proof][U.S. Cellular]" using odin
3)So by reflashing the full stock fw do you mean I need to factory reset? or Is it possible to download the stock fw somewhere?
Sorry I am new to android, so please bear with me
Sorry, coulda sworn you could run fix permissions in Titanium....
You should be able to do this in cwm or twrp recovery. May be in the advanced menu. You can install the recovery from Rom or Goo Manager app.
Factory reset wipes all user data taking you back to an out of the box state.
You can get a pre rooted version of the FW from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771687
This is the original LE6 version though, if you want the updated LH2 version give me a few min to get the link for you.
Follow directions in that thread to flash with Odin.

thank you so much for taking the time and finding that for me!
i will definitely try it as soon as i can!
thanks again
NP.
Let us know how it goes. If noting at all seems to work, try borrowing a sdcard and see if it acts the same.
Could always just be a problem elwith the card itself

I had a patriot 16gb class 10.. when it works.. it's awesome should be called class 15 or something lol. However there were three times it randomly corrupts.. lost all my pictures and crap. A format usually fixes it. After the second time... i learned to put my photos to default internal memory. The third time i was no longer able to format it... couldn't move files in or out but i can open them?! I went with the high amount of 5 star reviews but should've listened to them 1-2 star reviews. They don't do well with phones. And your problem is a problem that occurred to me every now and then. Remember to back up your card frequently before it crashes!

ah, problem
so I tried followed the link and the steps to flash the fw
but I am encountering this problem of when odin is done and the phone is restarting the "process android.process.acore has stopped" along with touchwiz and poweramp.
I reflashed twice and the problem remains
I even cleared dalvik cache and regular cache and fixed permissions with cwm and rebooted but it still did not fix the problem
Do I have to factory reset now?
:crying:
I can't remember which app it is or if this is the one requiring factory reset. Can you boot and get to settings > app manager? If so clear data on google services framework. Maube also touchwiz home. (Can't remember for sure)
You could also try using the built in file manager in twrp. Go to /data/data and look for those folders and delete them. May not work but worth a try.

ya thanks for the advice but it didn't work
From what I can tell the only solution now is to do a factory reset
anyways so why did the fw not work for me?
i even made sure i downloaded the correct wind one
at least now maybe with the factory fw i can make sure the external sd card works?
so factory reset is done
external sd card still does not want to work via "my file" folder creation
I don't know is it broken? I would like to try another sd card but I need to find one
although I did test it with h2testw and no error message popped up.
It wrote and verified fine.
Sometimes left over data can cause problems with a newly flashed system. Odin didn't wipe your apps or data and something was left behind that conflicted with setup or something like that. Sorry it came down to that man.
Ive heard a few times over the past couple years of sdcards working fine in one device but not at all in another. It seems rare and I'm not sure why it happens, but it can.
Only way to know for sure is to borrow a known good sdcard and try it. If it also doesn't work then its most likely a problem with the phone. If it works then you probably need to replace the card. Maybe take it to the store where you got it and let them try. That way if it doesn't work you have a witness that can note your account of the issue.

Fixed it. Seems that Samsung is confused where to install apps. I used ROM toolbox and tried to change where apps were to be installed. For me it needs to stay auto. Hope this helps someone with the same problem

I got the same thing on stockrom, and I was convinced it was because I just did a nandroid backup before flashing a theme (and then restoring because it sucked). Looks like I'm re-installing rom toolbox pro!
Update: on the app2sd section, the storage was already set to auto. I tried setting to internal, and external, all 3 and I still get Insufficient Storage Available.
