Download, install and run HTCdev Amaze Memory Clear...
from Play Store. Search for "amaze memory clear". Found this while reading a XDA thread (can't remember the OP). Worked for me.
oops - already posted by fcpelayo
I've tried uninstalling a **** ton of apps...that didnt work. Did a wipe/format cache in ext4, that didnt work. Also installed Amaze memory cleaner...all it says is "update successful" and nothing else. 457MB used, and 2GB free internal app storage. WTF.

Although the article talks about titanium backup, this works for any other app that has the same issue, if you're using the patcher.

I have been having the same problem. The Amaze Memory clear app solved it! Freed up about 1.4GB of available internal storage!! I was so frustrated with this problem. Thank you for posting the solution!!!
Quick question about this app -- perhaps I'm not doing something correctly, but every time I start it up all I see is a black screen and nothing ever happens. It says Update Complete in the top left corner but other than that -- nothing.
Any thoughts? Thanks guys! Hopefully it's not something so simple as to make me look like an idiot

I have a rooted HTC Aria running CM 7. I tried downloading Google Maps, but get this error: "There is insufficient space on the device". There is only 139 MB on the phone, even after I moved several apps to the sd card, but the card has over 6 GB free, and isn't that where downloads go?

that would be a no they go to the phone first then you can move it to the sd, so how much free memory do you have on the phone?
Google Maps only takes about 11MB, so if you have more than that free, I don't know why you'd get that message.

This is a memory problem related to the app download cache allocated with CM7. A good remedy and a good way to dramatically increase your phone's storage memory:
- download and use Rom Manager to create a partition on the sd card. (This erases the sd card so back it up first.)
- download and run S2S to move cache and program files to the sd card partition. This program tricks the phone to use the sd card as additional memory. It also creates a larger application download cache so you will have no problem downloading Google Maps. It only works with CM7.

What is S2S? How different is it from the DT app2sd??
S2E is what he meant. It is the same thing as DT's apps2sd, but it only works with CM7. It's much easier to use S2E than DT's.
Sent from my Aria using XDA Premium App
yeah, s2e is awesome, its running great, with no lag. I have been using it for about 3 months now with no problems. even with around 130 apps I still have the available storage of 160mb. I have moved all my apps and dalvik cache to sd. it was so easy to set up. I used rom manager and CWR to partition my sd to 512mb with swap disable, re-flash cm7 and restore my backup, done. I did try mounting my sd with ext4 but it was a little buggy so I re formatted and went back.
Hi, I just bought some apps in the 10 billion downloads promo, but I can't install any app that weights more than 20mb, it says I don't have enough memory, but I do, I have 90mb on internal memory, and more on SD card. How can I fix this? By the way, I just screwed something in my phone, so I was forced to reflash CM7.1, but the problem persists.

move cache to sd using darktremors a2sd script......

Hmm I just installed it, but I can't get it to work, tried A2SD gui, but it gives me an error, I also tried "a2sd check" in terminal, but I'm getting lots of "/sbin/busybox: Permission denied" errors. Tried 2 versions of A2SD, the one from CF-root thread, and newest one from darktremor site.
Do you have root ?

never encountered tht but here is how i managed to run dtapps2sd :
1) install new rom n wiping data cache etc.
2)reboot in recovery ... mount system ... install dtapps2sd.zip...
3)reboot system ..... go to terminal emulator n type a2sd install......
Yep, if I didn't, I couldn't install a2sd in the first place.
None of these instructions helped me. The problem is a combination of issues related to Samsung's devices and the Market application's design.
What did was a simple app from the Market called "MarketFix." (Requires root.) It moves your Market app cache from the device to your SD card FAT32 partition.

That still limits you to about 24 MB max on a download, even if you can miraculously end up completely clearing the cash.
MarketFix app from android market completely eliminates the problem.
Well, something got screwed up, and sd-ext doesn't want to automatically mount on boot, and the script I made to mount it doesn't work. BUT MarketFix took care of this error, and now I can install those apps Thanks IrishRed.

Hello, I am getting an error for insufficient storage when I try to install some apps. I know how to fix this (by deleting apps obviously)...however I'm just not sure what is taking the space.
When I open up the storage section it says:
Apps - 1.5GB
Other - 4.5GB
I have NO idea what is using this Other space. Is it just cache? I can't click on the other section to see what is taking the space. Anyone know how I can figure this out?
Thanks!

I had this problem too. This happens because when you install apps from the play store most of the time it gets put into the internal storage which is small in comparison to the phone storage (internal sdcard). So to fix the problem go to settings then apps. The apps under "downloaded" is what's in the internal storage so what I do is I go through each app that is 10 mb and higher and move them to phone storage (internal sd card). This should fix it .

There sure is. Never knew that.
None of that works. no matter what. If I move it to phone storage, the app is still in the internal phone storage. Why in hell would they partition a drive and all the apps go to internal phone storage by default and no matter if you move it or NOT the app is still taking space in the internal phone storage. and NOT all apps will move. So how do we make it so that all apps download to phone storage by default?
Hey everyone,
Very recently, my rooted P769 on Jellybean (20f) isn't letting me install any applications because there is no free space. But that isn't true - I have 560 MB free on my internal SD! At first I was down to about 150 MB free, but I couldn't install any applications then, so I deleted some applications and cleared some data so now I have about 560 MB free, but I still can't install one small 5 MB application! I haven't done any app2sd (I only have 2 GB free on my external SD so there would be no point anyways). I also have CWM recovery 6 by artas but I haven't installed anything with it recently. Any help? Maybe there is a way to modify build.prop to allocate more space for application data?
Any help would be really appreciated, because I can't install any application on my phone right now.

Try checking your clockworkmod/backup folder on your internal sd card. if you have one or two in there it will make a difference. Transfer those files to your SD card. Sounds like you need a new sd card as well. Get a 16gb one from Wal-Mart for like $15! Once you get your new SD Card then follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44683922#post44683922

I don't think you understand my problem. I have 560 MB of free space on my internal SD, but I can't install any applications because every time I try I get an error that I don't have enough space, regardless of the size of the application. I should be able to install a 5 MB application if I have more than 5 MB of free space. I have a 32 GB class 10 external SD card (and I have a couple CWM backups on it) but it's almost full so doing Link2SD isn't realistic, not to mention the many problems that Link2SD has been known to cause. If somebody has had this problem before, where they definitely have enough free space to install applications but their phone tells them they do not, I'd appreciate some assistance.

If u are using remount SD to switch ur ext sd with ur internal SD then u need to make a folder called external_SD in ur sdcard0 folder after u use remountsd to switch storage.. if not, then I say u need to use remountsd and use jb settings to change ur storage.. if u want I can link u to the instructions post of remount SD

Interne SD - /storage/Sdcard0
External SD - /storage/Sdcard0/external_sd
Target external SD card - /storage/sdcard0
Reboot ur phone and when finished media scanning go to ur storage and see the changes. I've experienced if problem before and I had to not only hard reset the phone I also had to flash a cwm backup stock of my current Rom
IF remountsd doesn't work right away u need a fresh install of Rom THEN try remountsd. Remountsd is a Definite for switching storages

Hi there,
I was wondering if somebody could answer, why the App Storage for the Desire X is limited to 2.9 GB. Apparently some apps can no lobger be Moved and I currently seem to have only 18 MB free. An installation of an update of Facebook (19 MB) or Chrome (36 MB) often fail unless I have cleared all the cahces.
Can somebody tell me how to increase this space? I have used cache Cleaner to Move all apps to sd card that were possible to move.
Maybe sb. has some ideas.
Thanks

You can install a micro SD card and move a few apps to SD if possible. If that's not enough, root your phone, partition your sd card so it has an ext4 partition and install Link2SD from Google Play. Then, you can move any apps to your sd card.

How can i install a micro SD card???:good:
i can insert one though
I think I moved all the Apps I can and I don't think rooting will do the trick.
Under AppStorage in Settings I used up 2.73 GB / 2.90 GB
Apps 0.91 GB
Other 1.81 GB
I am stumbling over the Other category.
I recently found out that my camera actually saved to phone memory and not to my sd card. I changed it now and actually moved the files.
But why is other so high here? If Apps only take up 0.91 GB that would be fine.
Did your clear the apps caches? Maybe it helps.
