I've found the new market does this pretty often.
I just download again and it usually works fine for me.
Goodluck!
Vibrant+MIUI

I used to have this same EXACT problem, and here are your solutions:
1. Clear market cache, then see
2. If that doesn't work, Odin to JFD with repartition checked, then reflash the ROM.
3. If the above didn't work, then you have to reformat both then internal and external SD cards, and don't forget to backup the things on the SD cards. I would Odin to JFD if I were you before you reformat just incase.
And that's that. The third step is what helped me, odining to JFD with repartition checked should ttoo.
Good luck

SOLVED! I think? Seemed to only ran into problems updating a few apps that I had restored through titanium. I Went to my apps tab in market noticed the apps that I was having problems with were in the not installed list. I Uninstalled from apps phone and downloaded from market and reinstalled. No more problems. May have been able to use Titanium's market link fix but I dont have paid version. Thanks for you input guys!

I have Titanium Pro and still had this issue with GOSMS. I had to uninstall it and reinstall, maybe its just a glitch with some apps.
Hope this helps others, just uninstall the app that is giving you the insufficient space message.

Strange I ran into this problem yesterday too!!!!
I just flashed MIUI, and was installing downloading apps from market place and it says insufficient storage. I have plenty of storage!!!
Possible solution, I was downloading and installing several apps the same time. Try downloading/installing one at a time, this seemed to work for me.

Be careful using the market doctor on tb with the new market. It made my market fc continually after that, and I just read another thread where it gave someone else problems also.

[Q] AxuraJL5 market "My Apps" problem

the majority of my installed apps from the market are not showing up in the "My downloads" part of the market. Ive tried all normal fixes and none of them work:
TiBu Market Doctor
Fix Permissions (This actually isnt working for me on this ROM either)
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Vending.apk
Cleared Market cache/data
Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have other ideas on how i would fix this??
Hmmm, that is strange. All of my apps are showing up.
My market updated to the latest leak out and it started doing that. I uninstalled the update then restarted after that and all my app showed. Now my market updated agaib to the latest one but now all my apps show olin the my apps section. So try that.

My market is now not functioning properly either..
Its giving me an error saying "Warning: Your device may not be compatible with Android Market. Contact your device's manufacturer for more information." What the hell?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried restoring with odin and everything and still get this weird error.

I saw some ppl tweeted this earlier. Seems to a market problem.
Topshelf: I'm guessing you are using TB to restore apps? On almost all flashes I have the same problem after restoring. I usually uninstall an app that I know is installed, reboot, clear cache, then usually in one of those steps it brings back all my apps. GL
anyone else having this problem?

[Q] Memory Issue

I have galaxy ace stock room 2.3.3 rooted i installed more apps via root ap apps2sd and thats it.
But i have 50mb of internal storage and it will not let me install apps that are bigger than 1mb whats wrong how do i fix it.

[Q] Market says: Insufficient Space

So here's my problem, when i try to install a huge app trought the market i got the message "Error [...] insufficient space on the device" or something like that.
I tried the EVS Market fix app, Cache Cleaner, wiping cache and dalvik-cache, but when i try to install for example "Where's my watter"(22MB) i got the error.
But this only happens with huge app, i can install any other app, i tried one of 4MB and worked fine.
I'm using Link2SD, partitioned SD card, and i got 110MB of free space on my internal memory.
And the ROM i'm using is on my signature.
Thanks in advance.
Its not abt ur internal memory...its the prob with cache..
Sry for my bad english

I had the same problem too..From what i remember,you should force close it,wipe data,wipe cache.It might solve the problem,its a bug with that market version.I searched a lot at the time i had this problem and i figured this from google forums itself
wipe your cache partition
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
I had that same problem a while ago. I saw that wiping data and cache of market app solves the problem for a while but after a couple of days it would come back again. I did some research and found(cant put url in here): search in market for MarketFix from Felipe Aron.
It worked for me. Hope that helps you.

Try to download market fix from android market, i also have problem like you, but after download it. It's solved!
please press THANKS button if i helped
I already tried wiping the caches, i'll try this MarketFix from Felipe Aron, and maybe someone has the link for the market app from stock rom?
i faced the problem b4! i have no choice but to chg to another custom rom.. ><
Unistall updates
Once I faced this problem too, I uninstalled the updates and got older version of market it worked fine and it got updated again and I never had the problem again
Just clear the Market cache. Don't do any other unnecessary steps.
Already tried that @SuperAce609 and didnt worked.
Ha, it's funny...
I am having the same problem and am running Grif's CM7.1.
I have tried uninstalling the Market updates and clearing it's cache and data (didn't help)
I have tried wiping Delvik Cache from CMR and no dice there either.
Tried the Market Fix app from the market and no fix there either.
I am thinking about starting fresh and re flashing.
Any body else have any other thoughts?
You have the same issue? Only with large app's?

Yeah dude, I am having exactly the same issue. I can install smaller programs, but I just tried installing Where's my Water and I get an error saying that there is insufficient space on the device.
I still haven't figured it out yet and I think I may have eff'ed up my Android Market in the process. I uninstalled updates and tried to download Where's my Water again and while that didn't work, my market is no longer updated even after I took the freeze off.
I am getting very frustrate.
If no solution, I am going to reflash and see if I still have this problem (but going to do it on the weekend).

Insufficient Storage Available AOKP

I got the Insufficient Storage Available error when I install new apps from Google Play, I can't even install apk, so I think this is not Google Play problem. I have plenty of space life. Running the latest AOKP. Anyone having this problem?
I'm guessing this didn't work?
Try this.
It also happens when you have the app still in the data/apps folder yet it's already uninstalled. Go to your data/apps folder with Root Explorer and check if the .apk is still there. If it is, delete it.

Thanks for your advice, I used mini tool partition from my computer, but when I checked in my phone's storage, still wasn't shown the ext4 partition that i did with minitool, so just tried with cwm partition (1GB Ext and 0MP swap) and it worked! But before I try this one I downloaded link2sd from play store! That's it! Now my internal memory is 0.94GB, wow...before it was only 120MP!

The app didn't work. It runs ok, but has no effect in solving this issue... at least on my case: Galaxy S2 running Cyanogen 9 final release. I also had this issue from time to time with the RC1 of CM9, but it always disappeared without me doing nothing (the problem only happened back then when updating apps from Google Play).

Meanwhile, just my 50 cents, I think this problem is related with the Lucky Patcher... Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe not..,

Insufficient storage available - Stockage disponible insuffisant

HTC ONE X
Hello, my update of Titanium Backup * root, so I have this message (title) that appears. Yet I still have huge room. I uninstalled the application, but can not be restored, the other works well. For example Instagram which weighs 12.77 MB installs without worries ...
I clear the cache of all applications ...
Safe Mode, it gives me the same thing.
In recovery, wipe a cache does not solve anything either ...
Relocation of the ROM without wipe, and always the same ...
HTC ONE X

Are we talking about insufficient storage in Google play?

not in the phone's internal storage, but I still have more than 1GB
Wut? What I meant was does it happen when your downloading apps in Google play
Sent from my Legend using xda premium
use link2sd to free more internal memory for apps
same here... just started happening today.
when i run updates in google play store it tells me insufficient storage available and i cant use the apps any more.
i've tried clearing cache/dalvik, uninstalling apps, moving some to SD, formatted SD card
nothing helps.
WTF?

Well that's weird, it worked for me. Are you sure you downloaded the right one? The application is market fix, I noticed there were several other versions on the market.

I just fixed mine too. I used a logcat, I saw what was causing problem in the app installation and where this file was. It was in the root/data/app/ I browsed there using a rooted explorer and then I deleted the file. More specific I was trying to install hdwidgets (cloudtv.hdwidget is the package name) but during the installation (and not the downloading) I read in the logcat that a file named cloudtv.hdwidgets-1.apk could not be renamed or something like that and it was placed in the root/data/app dir.
Hope it helps...

Thanks you very much for the tip ! You saved me lots of time ! Had this issue with "insufficient storage available" even if I have more than 1Go available ! Looked in data/app and found that the .odex file wasn't deleted when I uninstalled the app, so manually deleted the file and was able to download from market !
To be honest I noticed that if you use a cracked app (for testing for more than 15mn market limit which is really too short) and you de-install it to buy the legit one then the issue appear and you can't download from the market after paying, so now you know what to do !
thanks again.
Lucky Patcher (a cracker app, which causes this) also has a fix for this.
