Fix Insufficient Storage problem after flashing new ROM - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If you're like me, you probably made a backup of your apps using an app like Titanium. I did the same and after installing the new ROM, I restored all my apps. The problem is that after doing so and while trying to install new apps or updating others, I started receiving the message "Insufficient Storage Available". I tried all the solutions available on the web and nothing worked.
It appears that some or more apps are getting into conflict with some of the ROM data. Probably it is related to some Google Apps. What I did to solve this problem was reset the phone and then install the apps I wanted. Then, I restored the apps but deleted all former system and Google Apps from the backup before restoring. No problems yet.
So, it seems that this conflict is causing all the problems with the instalation of the apps. Don't know exactly what, but hope this helps.

[Q] Unable to download apps from the market

Hi,
since I've rooted my phone and went for DeFrost/OpenDesire I'm unable to download any apps from the market. I've set the installation source to internal memory. I've tried to re-install the ROM, cleaning, wiping data/cache and basically everything around that. I'm even unable to download Apps with the original 2.2 unrooted STOCK rom now.
Any ideas?
What I did so far:
- Wiping the phone
- Formating the SD card
- Basically everything to default
- Installed FroYo 2.2.1 Pre-Rooted
And still I cant download apps from the market.
Please I am begging for ideas
try clearing market's data in "application" section of "settings"
does your problem include free apps? or paid only?
Hi,
did that.
Applies for paid and free apps
Apps Install Problem
Hi,
I've got kinda the same problem.
Got root phone with custom ROM (Neophyte) and download apps form market is fine but after they don't install and I still have the installing process running but nothings happens.
I've try to change ROM but in Cyamogen I don't even see the Android Market.
I have partitioned the SD card with Rom Manager to get APP2SD but I d'ont know if this is working. How to check?
Someone can help? Which ROM should I use to test if the market is Ok?
Can I put a HTC rom into my rooted phone?
I do have the feeling that my phone is not allowed to place the files somewhere it would need to. Does anyone know where files from the market are being placed when the download starts?
Update:
I found a solution. I need to disable the SD card and them I'm able to download files again. So I guess its some kind of app2sd problem?
And with defrost its not working anylonger.
GOD DAMNIT. This is driving me crazy
So even with a ext3 partition I'm unable to download these Apps. I've tried repair mode from ROM manager and he successful fixed everything - without a result.
If anyone has an idea please tell me. I'm unable to use my phone this way and I don't have any idea at this point. I just revoked everything going back to an unrooted HTC Desire EU 2.2 rom.
Its still not working. I dont get this.
SD card was formated, Phone was wiped - its in the same state as yesterday before I rooted it. So how the heck is it not working anymore?! Cant be its kinda hardware bricked or something ... ffs
PLEASE
I have the same problem. After creating the partion in rom manager I am unable to DOWNLOAD apps for the market but I can still install apk's from the memory card.
SOLUTION!!!
The solution is quite simple actually. Tried it on HTC Tattoo
Go to Settings>Applications>Managae Applications>Market and uninstall all the updates for Market and clear cache. Try Downloading Apps from Market.
Cheers!

Unable to download Apps on Market after I unlocked my Tmobile Vibrant
I'm also having the same problem after I unlocked my Tmobile vibrant.
If i reset my phone and go to apps market, Im able to download fine, but after closing apps market and opening it again and try downloading any apps, nothing happens. It says its "starting download" but nothing happens. It seems to be stuck at that "starting download" process. But if I reset my phone and go back to the Apps market and try downloading apps and everything will work temporary.
I tried going into settings---->applications----> manage applications----> clear cache---->reboot
Also tried going to Download Manager-Clear Data----Reboot
Also tried uninstalling updates for Apps Market.
Nothing helps.
Please help if you find a way to fix this problem.

[Q] App download problems.

I know this is a problem a lot of Android users have, but wondered if anybody has found a solution.
Often the market states that an update is available, but when downloading it the app successfully downloads, but then fails to install. The market just sits there with the download percentage bar at 100% and won't progress any further.
I have done the usual things like signing out of Talk, clearing all caches and the data in 'Market' and it resolves it for only a few downloads then I am back to the same problem.
Also clearing the 'Market data' means that I have to tick all the "automatically update" options on all my apps again, which is a pain.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem for good? I'm running a stock rooted ROM.
Cheers.

[Q] Insufficient storage errors ???

Every time i try and update an app it gives me this message
Even though I still have like 22 gb or storage left
Is there any way of getting around this error
I tried searching everyone says to delete the odex file or something like that I deleted what I thought was it but still nothing
Same Problem
I'm running 4.3 build 2.2 slim rom now. I receive the same "insufficient storage" error wgile updating certain apps such as yahoo mail, dolphin browser, twitter, and agoda. The rest of the apps update without any problems, though... I cannot see any reason why this is happening when I still have a couple of gigs in free space...
Could the settings in "android tuner" app have anything to do with this? As far as I recall, this problem with the updates started after I installed a few apps- android tuner being the most pervasive among them...
I hope someone who has encountered this same problem has found a solution other than re formatting and re flashing everything...

[Q] Lots of Broken stuff on 4.2

I recently updated my Galaxy Nexus ROM to Paranoid android based on 4.2. I noticed a few issues...
After upgrading I stopped getting Facebook notifications.
DashClock widget is showing up as incapable in the Play Store.
I can no longer get play store apps pushed to the device through a browser.
I can't sign in to Google Plus. My google account shows sync errors (everything but Google Plus is syncing).
I tried a factory reset because I suspected Titanium Backup might have caused problems. I tried using the Google stock ROM (4.2.1). Nothing fixed it. Note that I didn't have issues with previous versions of Paranoid Android. I have done some googling and forum searching to no avail. Help is appreciated, thanks.
I do presume you've wiped all caches through twrp or cwm?
If not, then do so and reinstall the ROM again.
Helpful advice: when upgrading, unless you absolutely MUST, don't restore apps or data with TB. Many users reported instability issues after doing so. Always download fresh apps from the play store

Yes, I wiped all Caches before upgrading. I will try again without restoring.

M8 Marshmellow updated - some issues.

I flashed the Wolla v2.5 MRA58K.H6 with TWRP and had some questions/issues. The camera kept on force closing, even though on other apps it worked just fine. I occasionally have a "android system has stopped working" warning as well. Also, I was expecting the full wipe to wipe all the internal storage as well, but I don't believe it did?
Wanting to install the newest ROM but wondering if there is a way to easily back up all apps and such - it took a long time to get it up and running at this level and don't want to go through it again. Thoughts?
Try using Titanium Backup to back up your apps and data. Personally, I use a combination of SMS Super Backup for my SMS/Call logs and Titanium for my apps.
I'm using Wolla v3.5 GPE right now and everything is great except for some strange reboot/bootloop every time I open up Snapchat. Uninstalling the app seemed to have solved the issue, but I still want to be able to use it... It's probably to do with the new camera API.
I'll give that a try. What's the difference between 2.5 & 3.5?
Updated to 3.5 and wiped it all.
Everything is working well except the system will not let me install chrome, why I do not know. I've tried downloading from the app store, both normal and beta, and every time it force closes. I've tried having it install from on my computer through google play and it force closes. I've downloaded the apk and allowed install from unfamiliar sources and it will get to the install page, and say app not installed. What gives?
Also, it seems all of my internal folders have been wiped clean - this means when I open the M8's internal storage on my computer, there are no folders; no download, no dcim, nothing. Any advice on what's happening here?
Solved both issues using [this solution](http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2684384). Internal memory was set to read only.
