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.

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

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!

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).

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

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.

I'm currently running virus rom and tried to flash supra 1.5 and a different rom can't remember the name of it at the moment but when i went through the set up in the very beginning of boot it automatically downloads a few of my apps then i get a huge list of error downloading apps. Insufficient space on device. However i have 1gb of free space available.. any ideas of why?

I have no idea why that happens and it happened to me when I flashed Viper mod. I seemed to fix it by clearing the market cache from manage applications and running the market again.
Thanks dud ill try that

Worked like a charm dude. Thanks a million. Running supra 1.5 with adw ex. Hella fast

No problem. I was in the same situation and i though i couldn't install anymore apps.
Yeah as noted above when you first setup your google account it will attempt to restore apps and it will download all of them to dalvic cache, once it's full you'll get that error until the caches are wiped. As demo27 stated that you can do this by:
A: Wiping Dalvik
B: Clearing Market Data
I prefer wiping dalvik since when flashing anything you should always clear Dalvik and Cache
I've been looking for the answer to this problem most of the day glad I found it! It worked after clearing the cache/data from market under manage applications!
Thanks!

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 ...

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

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.
Hi, I'm on Foxhound's Revolver Ocelot ROM and I keep getting these two messages whenever I try to download anything from the Play market;
Package file is invalid & Insufficient storage available
I cannot download a single app from the Play market.
Please someone help me to resolve this, preferably without a factory reset.

Try to download apps using another network connection. Sometime it many be a temporary network issue. Also try these methods http://www.thespicygadgematics.com/2011/12/fix-android-package-file-is-invalid.html
try what MyLifeRocks10 said: "go into either the /system/app/ or /data/app/ directory and delete the odex file that has the same name as the respective .apk"
I'm trying to download Sports Car Challenge and am getting the same problems.
First it was insufficient storage space, so I rebooted, same problem. Then I unmounted sdcard, app cannot be installed in default location, so I remounted sdcard now I get package file invalid.
AAARRGGHHHH !
I've tried clearing cache of google play store but no difference.
I am running standard XWLPG firmware with CF-root.
Solved. Sort of.
I've spent two days prowling the web searching for solutions for the "package file invalid" error. My problem was that maps would not restore from a backup or install from the market. I did one of everything in an attempt to solve it, I'm pretty sure. Since it looks like the cache is simply jammed up, preventing the install of large Google apps, I used a Titanium Backup filter to list all my apps that reside on the phone rather than on the SD card. I uninstalled a few of the bigger ones (actually just three of the biggest) and then went to the market to install maps. Came through without a problem. Strangely, using Titanium again I was able to restore all those apps I'd uninstalled to make room for maps. I have no idea why that worked – it seems spatially impossible – but for now, at least, problem solved. What a total hair-puller the invalid package error is.
Hi.I have a problem..

Can anyone help me please; when I'm trying to install an app that I've previously uninstalled (because it didn't work), I'm getting error that I don't have enough space, altough I have more than 3 GB of free space. I've tried to boot CWM, wiped dalvik cache & fix the permissions, but that didn't helped.
New applications I can install with no issues, only old apps are bugging me.

What app is it? If it is a system app, that'd mean you'll have to push the apk
It's not the system app... First app is AfterFocus, second is game called Patchworkz. I tried to install older version, newest version but it just wont install...
