I'm having the same problem, obviously I have installed too many apps, and this sux because otherwise I LOVE this phone. Now my only option is to delete apps? Can any of you experts advise us on how to mitigate this problem? Please?

I've just noticed that I have run low on internal memory on my incredible and I have nothing rly installed on my phone and all my music is on the sd card
Is there something wrong with my phone or is it the rom?

I am searching and searching for this problem but no one really has an asnwer... Why cant anyone help us out?
I have a stock unrooted Droid Incredible and have installed about 20-30 free apps from the market and I am getting this low memory error.
I go into "settings/sd & phone storage" and it says:
SD card
Total space
7.39GB
Available space
4.83GB
Internal phone storage
Total space
6.46GB
Available space
6.41GB
Phone Memory
Total space
748MB
Available space
572MB
The only way to correct the problem is to uninstall some programs.
I have moved all the apps that I can to the SD card.
As it is right now, if I install an app, I will get the "low on memory" error and I will have to uninstall something in order to try something new.
I dont want to start a new thread so I figured this one was the closest to my problem.
SO PLEASE help me with this.
I dont really want to use anything other than stock rom, been there done that and had too many probs with little things not working(on a different phone).. I would like to keep it stock..... For now anyway... lol
Thanks for any comments...

Open up a terminal and type "df -h" - post the output if it isn't self explanatory.
This assumes you've rooted the device.
Nope, I haven't rooted it. I guess I should start reading about rooting.
Any links you might want to share for an Android noob? For rooting of coarse.
I come from windows mobile and I never had to deal with "rooting". We just had to "unlock" our phones.
Thanks

Go to the development forum and check the sticky threads. Particularly, the thread with links to other helpful threads should be useful. Pretty sure you just need to run unrevoked forever, flash a custom recovery, then the rom of your choice.

Which app are you installing?
What?
Are you rooted? What rom are you on? Why can't you think before you post in the DEVELOPMENT forum to ask a question, instead of the Q&A (QUESTION and answer) forum?
Are you sure the free space you're looking at is internal storage and not sd card?
my dads phone used to prompt him for that but he had about >10mb left.. for some reason the htc mail app had like 100 mb worth of crap in the data portion and there was no way to clear that data w/o a factory reset.. no idea why it would ask you with so much memory left. I have about 40mbs and dont have that problem

is that whenever you try to download/update an app? i had that problem and couldn't fix it. I re flashed everything and started over and it works now.
YA and couldn't fix it
ok i uninstalled superuser and busybox and some how lost all permissions to install or update anything.im lost
I guess the obvious question is why did you do this? Can you try installing superuser from the market again to see if you can undo the damage? Any time you mess with the system files you risk messing something up...
Market will not let me install any program that works in the system it clai,s I have not enough space available even though I hv over 3 gig left.also I don't know why did not wat to be rooted again I guess lol

EDIT: PLEASE don't keep my old threads alive!
Screenshot isn't showing up for me.
Is it saying you're out of storage space?
Try clearing your market data.
Settings>Apps>Play Store>Clear Data
This will change your market settings back to stock and remove your recent market searches...
But other than that you won't lose anything and it might remedy the situation.

I uploaded the screenshots via my Galaxy Nexus and just noticed it's not showing them.. in market it said: ERROR: "Insufficient storage available", i can install other apps but not the ROM Manager!
I should clear market data and cache but I'm not sure does it help because it just can't install this one application and I have 6 GB free memory, I gonna clear market data and then I try to install it again.
But Thanks anyway for the reply!..
Edit: now I see the screenshots, sometimes it takes time to show them, I don't know why..
and still it doesn't install it.. little bit weird..
People who get this specific error don't deserve the answer.
