[Q] Couldn't install application? -.-" Out of Space - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Recently I uninstalled PowerAmp. However, when I tried to reinstall an upgraded version of it, I can't as the installer came out with the out of space error. However, the problem is that I have enough space in my phone. (Confirm have space one). I also tried installing different versions of the apk but it still doesn't work. Other bigger apps apk work fine except all the different version of PowerAmp.
Here's a catlog at the bottom.

Hi. Exact Same problem here

Go to data/app, delete com.maxmzp(poweramp) ...... something along that line. I can't remember the full name. So find the filename in data/app that has the same app as what you're trying to install

Root explorer
Go to /data/app
Del this line
com.maxmpz.audioplayer-1.odex

I have the same issue but with maildroid.
Any suggestions?

later when i was installing a full apk of this game. i got an error of out of space... i uninstalled almost everything ..
my apps section shows 7.5 gb still left..

Uninstall whatever installed maildroid.
Delete maildroid.odex located in data/app.
Reinstall ...Done.

To everyone asking what to do with other apps. If you did a patch to that app, there might be a .Odex created in data /app as said above. Just go there and delete it.
Applies to ALL APPS

File explorer.
It needs root to access this folder I guess!

... guys just uninstall any patch you have in your device like Lucky Patcher and then install PowerAmp or any other app ...

Thanks, it solved my problem... I'm new to XDA.

Problem solved
go to your File Manager and select your Ext. SDcard. delete some unused and unnecessary files to free the space on your ext. sdcard. Install it again, it will work.

[Solved] com.google.process.gapps error

if any have you experiencing
com.google.process.gapps force close error
i have found the way to resolve it
i have attached apps copy them to sdcard and to system/app folder using 644 permissions use root explorer (root required)
and reboot
market, sync, youtube, and many more problems are solved
I was having this issue.. but after a reflash from SEUS it was sorted..
your way sounds much easier.. I had to re-install all my apps again.. root the phone.. delete horrible SE apps etc etc.. took fricken hours! (just because that error seemed to be stopping Market working Grrrrrrrrr!!)
any idea what this gapps app is and what it does? I don't remember deleting it (I generally just get rid of games, user guides etc.. safe stuff, so I was really confused when the error suddenly started popping up)
Cheers for the file tho (I have a copy safely stashed away now for next time!)
the problem i have found is that deleting googleapp.apk and google settings provider. when you do this all other google related apk's malfunction that's where the error comes up

This method was difficult to me, because i did hard reset and i dont have any program(z4root and Astro) and i dont know how install from sd because my Market didnt work.
My one way was repair from Companion

The easiest way around this is (to install a file manager without market).. either use a laptop with BT or find a friend with a bluetooth capable phone and a file manager like astro, stick the file on the laptop/their phone and send it to your phone over BT, once its copied across go to the task bar and select the file and install it. couldn't be easier..
Google talk missing mate ..cud u link me to the apk or upload it?
Thanks
I recommend you not to touch any google.apk's, you can delete googlesearch.apk, enhancedgooglesearch.apk and search.apk, rest of .apk's that have google in its name leave it alone. Also, Setupwizard (or whatever its called (Setup wiz that starts when you first boot your phone or change sim card) is closely related to google.apks and market login, so i recommend you to leave it alone to.
When i deleted it, i was unable to log on my market (when i start marked i only get force close error and my market crashes and i was unable to login to my google acc to do the synh.
Thanks a lot, i wasn't able to copy them directly to the specified folder (i don't have root explorer), but copying the apk to SD and installing them from there seems to solve the error.

for setup wizard, I have deleted it and I can access market without problem.
but, I do sign in into market first before I delete it.
I copied the files to SD and then I installed every single one of them... It worked!
But only to remove the FC message... Still couldnt use Marked... So I reflashed it and recovered with Titanium... 15 mins and I was up n running again...
Thanks dude!!! After days of searching for a solution I downloaded and copied to system\app your pack and it worked.
Now I wonder why these android phones start doing funny things when you try to delete the Google stuff. Maybe that "don't be evil" policy is a thing of the past.
Hi , I downloaded the apps.rar to my phone but it can't extract or install..
it claims the file is empty , even though the filesize says 1,95 MB. Very strange..
I get the com.google.process.gapps error when opening Gmail app.
anyone?

@ The Andropirate... You sir are my new hero for the day anyway! I rooted my phone and my buddies and had this horrid error and market freeze for a couple days now with all kinds of bogus advice on how to fix it.
This IS how to fix the problem!
One thing that was not clear to me was copying the files in root explorer which I did do but it didn't seem to make a difference so I installed the files through root explorer from the SD card and that worked. I then simply installed the files from my friends SD card on his phone without the copy process and that worked. I do not think there is a need to copy the files to system/app. Simply extract to SD and install from there through root explorer.
This fix worked on Alcatel PT-980a and a Motorola Citrus
Im a bit of a n00b and when i rooted my x10 mini i went crazy uninstalling everything. Big thanks! I just copied all the apps to my sd card and installed them using root explorer. All fine now after many panicky hours!
By the way.... if you dont have any apps you need and you have this problem, download them from 4shared.com (when searching type the app name all one word followed by .apk e.g. rootexplorer.apk) and transfer to sd card... easy!
Acer A1 running 2.1
I have an Acer S100 A1 running official Eclair 2.1
Made a factory reset thinking that it would solve this gapps problem...
But no, it still pops up each time after I reboot and market is not working...
No file manager comes with the phone...
I cannot find a way to install the google apps in the first post...
Anyone, please
Victor
Is there any possibility to install these apps via recovery? Via .zip or adb?

remnants of deleted apps

I used the BlueMonkey theme by Jivy26, however I didn't like the GoSMSPro. I deleted the app via titanium backup, and used File Explorer to confirm it was deleted. However, it still shows up as being installed in the market place and I have the icon in my app list (although it says the application is not installed on my phone) How do I manusally remove the icon from the app list?

I guess the best thing to do is to reinstall the app and uninstall from the task manager or go to settings-applications and uninstall from there.

Make sure that the app is not running in the background or as a service.
Reboot the phone and go into settings>applications>running
services and see if you can find the offending app there.
If you can find it there, click on it and select STOP".
Then if all goes well you will be able to do a complete unistall.
Not running as a service =\ Is there a place where those icons are located on the phone itself? I could delete it through root explorer if I could find it.

icons for applications are stored within the apk itself....if the apk is gone, the app is gone.
try uninstalling them and then wipe cache/dalvik cache in CWM

If you know how to use root explorer to delete files
you can go into root of phone /system/apps and find
the offending APK name and delete with root explorer.
Some apps will have a "com." before the actual app name
so look for that too.
Good luck!

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).

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

Unknown error code during application install: "-24"

I get this error when I try to download Pandora from the market. I searched how to fix it but nothing works for me. One of the solutions was to go to the root folder then data/data to delete the left over data from the phone But it's empty. Any help would be appreciated. I transferred a bunch of stuff over from my old phone so I think I brought over some data too.
Any update on this??
Delete the entire folder if you can that normally fixes it for me. Also try restarting the phone, that might work too.

Are you rooted? Does this error only happen for certain apps or all apps? If it's for certain apps you might want to find any files that are used by the app and delete them, on both internal and external storage.
I normally fixed this on my s3 by deleting the app folder in /data/data but I don't think you can do that without being rooted.
Yes im rooted I was using pandora I deleted but when trying to install the new version the error appear, and the phone is running on art..and yes I enter android/data but no folder associated with pandora.

Not android/data but /data/data from root. It's in there that you have to delete the folder associated with Pandora. You need some sort of file manager that can go into that area, I use ES file manager but you can use whatever app you want.
Thanks for your help, I use ES file but inthe data/ data there in no folder..I'm trying to upload a screenshot but I cant
