Short Question:
How do I fix the "Error while downloading (app name). There is insufficient space on the device." with CleanRom 2.7
Long Question/Explanation:
Okay, so I just got my EVO 3D on Sprint yesterday and I rooted (Revolutionary) and installed the CleanRom 2.7. I am having issues downloading apps from the market. When I go to install I get the error "Error while downloading (app name). There is insufficient space on the device." I was wondering if there's a working/confirmed way to fix this permanently. I can clear the market Cache and Data and then download, but I have plenty of space to download in the first place. I'm sure this has already been discussed but I did a search and didn't see anything. I had the error first with Angry Birds and so I went into the storage setting and ran the "Make More Space" option. Then I was able to download Angry Birds, after that I went to download Twitter and got the same error, went directly to the Market under manage apps and cleared the cache and deleted the data. At which point I was able to install Twitter. If anyone knows how to fix this error it would be greatly appreciated. And again, sorry if this has already been posted.

If you're sure you have space on the /data partition, maybe these applications are attempting to install on your sdcard. Does your /sdcard also have sufficient space?
Simple method to check: Settings -> SD & phone storage .. this will list SD card available space and Internal storage available space.
Hope that helps!
Reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik and cache, again.
Also try going to settings/apps/manage apps/market and clear all data and cache.
It could also be the Google Backup/Restore feature. I found that every time I flashed a new ROM, no matter which one it was, and if I signed into my Google account while doing the initial setup on the ROM, it would automatically start restoring my apps from the Google servers. I would then be hit with the insufficient space error whenever I'd try to install a new app.
What I did to fix that issue was after flashing the new ROM, instead of entering in all my account info during setup, I would just skip everything, and get to my home screen. Then hit Menu -> Settings -> Privacy, and make sure the backup, and restore boxes are unchecked.
You can then go into Menu -> Settings -> Accounts & Sync, and then add your Google account and any other accounts you want to sync.
That made the issue go away for me. Hope it helps you too.

Hello
As always, I have managed to make something not work
Now what I did:
I have removed sdcard unexpectedly from the phone and then when i reinserted it, all the apps went wild - they started to force close. This problem affected most of the apps that were downloaded from the market. Some apps even forces hot reboot of the phone when launched (i.e. SwiftKey X). I can fix app if I reinstall it. However I lose all the data.
Wiping Cache and Dalvik did not help.
I have did a little aLogcat reading and it seems that apps force closes when they don't get permission to i.e. READ_PHONE_STATE. I have attached aLogcat file with logs that shows some nasty exceptions.
How can I fix it?
How can I prevent such problem in the future when removing sdcard?
I have a 64GB unit with 38GB free, and I am getting an 'Out of Space' error message when trying to install apps through Amazon App Store. I do have lots of apps installed through the App Store (Mostly Kid's Games.)
I am obviously not out of Space, but does ICS have a limit on the amount of Apps that can be installed, or in the Cache Partition getting full? I have tried resetting the device, but that did not help.
i got same msg any one can help us
Well, can you install the latest luckypatcher app? (root required) Opening lucky patcher should clear the issue. I have had the same problem but it wouldn't even let me install luckypatcher so I had to do a factory reset...
This error occurs by some leftover ODEX files that luckypatcher usualy clears on startup. You can also try cleaning dalvik cache.
Hi,
A couple of days ago, (stupidly) I decided that I wanted more internal memory space so I ended up deleting and reinstalling Google Play, as the Convert To User App option within Link2SD didn't work as it said something about can't finding Certificates; something like that.
Anyway so now when I go to install an application, it simply crashes and doesn't work. It loads fine; just doesn't download anything.
I've tried clearing Data & Cache for both the Google Play Application and the Download Manager Application.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Had to push it back onto the System Side. I'm sure I remember being able to install it onto my SD Card before?
I mistakenly thought if I cleared the list it will delete all the apps I downloaded. Instead, it just cleared the downloaded apps from screen and I now have no way of deleting the downloads. What I can do to delete the downloads?
Settings, Application Manager.
:good:
Its not the app. It's the files that has to be downloaded to install apps. It's in the storage downloads but since I cleared the list, I can't see them and delete them.
