Recently did a factory reset, then rooted and unlocked.
Since then I'm getting errors downloading apps. This seems to occur only over the wireless connection, not over Wifi. I have verified that I can access the SD-card and external SD-card. have plenty of available storage space (per Settings/Storage): 2.58 GB app, 8.43 GB internal, 29.06GB SD card. Also have a good data connection per browser/weather app use!
These are the two errors I am seeing when trying to download apps from Google Play:
"App xyz" could not be downloaded due to an error. (923)
Error downloading "App xyz". There is insufficient space on the device.
Searched to find a fix, but couldn't find a good answer. Can anyone help me?
I would flash Th3bill's full wipe @ http://www.jokersax.com/developer-pages/th3bill/809-2/ then flash your rom.
if that doesn't work, you'll have to go back to stock sbf and see if that fixed it. if OK, root... if OK, unlock. an incremental way to isolate the issue.

Dont do a full wipe just yet... Just go to settings, manage apps, click on play store, click clear data, then reboot. This will probably fix it.

It wasn't enough to clear settings, I had to do the full wipe and installing MIUI 2.6.22 fixed it.
I appreciate your the help!!
I had error 923 on my sgs3 and clearing app data resolved it.

1. under settings/apps go to google store.
2. cache and data reset.
3. update deinstall, and akzept reset to google store basic version !
4. delete googlemail account under accounts&syncronisation.
5. go to google store app, insert googlemail account new.
google store meanwhile has updated to newest version and will keep runing fine again now ! :good:
This can sometimes happen after a fresh install and gapps tries to throw every update it has logged for you at the phone. just retry after installing what sticks. usually sorts it. many phones have this issue

This helped me after using CF- Autoroot by Chainfire, on my nexus 5. Thanks man!
Possible solution
I've ran into error 923 in Google Play.
None of the above worked, and I finally managed to fix it by deleting /data/core/zcore*.zip files (2.5GB in total).
By the looks of permissions on those files, some files could be deleted without root, but not all of them.
this video fixed the problem for me.. while it's "kind of a long video" for the 2 easy steps.. it's just the 2 steps.. 'clear cache' (not sure that helped, really?)
but the 2nd step did help.. I rolled back google play to a 'older'-orginal version.. and that fixed it

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.

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.

Update
I've wiped cache and dalvick in recovery, but still the issue remains.
I've also wiped cache and data in Google Play Market and Download Manager, but error is still there.
Help, someone.

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..
I flashed v2.5 yesterday, and when I want download app from PlayStore, It always give me a message: "Package file is Invalid" and I cant install app from SDcard. I try to reflash the ROM. BUT its still
I need help ~ THX

+1 to this..
The Play Store displays no connection even with wifi. Already tried wiping dalvik cache, cache partition. Also tried force closing and clearing data from Google Play Services, Play Store, Google Service Framework. Help!!
Not enough information, your Play app could be corrupt, app settings, ROM or Google account.
Try logging into Google play on the website first to check the account works, then un-install Play app, re-install without settings, last try factory reset/reflash ROM.
It could be really simple or very terminal, like you've disabled a service or corrupted your ROM.
extra info
Google play account works on website. Tried signing out and can't sign back in - "Couldn't establish a reliable connection". Google play v3.10.14. How do you uninstall google play app?
Have you tried clearing the cache of google play services and google play in the application mananger ?

found a better solution that worked for me without doing a factory reset or device wipe. just delete the hosts file in root/etc/, by using (total commander) app.then reboot ur device and run play store and enjoy. Make a copy of the "hosts" file just incase .
I hope it works for u guys , cuz it's really frustrating error.

Deleting the hosts file and rebooting worked for me too. Thank you! :good:
AdFree
When using a rooted phone and you used Freedom for free in-game purchases, and as a result your play store won't connect, it's due the host file as stated in previous comments by others. To get rid of this problem, simply revert your host file and download the new host (both in the adfree app). This should fix the problem, hope it helps
Wrong Gapps version
After trying all solutions posted in this thread, I realized that the whole problem was that I had flash the wrong version of the Google Apps for the android version.
You can find which is the right one for your CM in the CyanogenMod Wiki. Sorry, I can't add the link now, it is my first link.
Fixed mine by realizing that somehow my system date and time were wrong.

VIDEO TUTORIAL
All,
I am really struggling to help my mate. I rooted his s2 and installed super nexus 4.2.2 on it a few weeks ago. Installation went fine and it works no problem but he kept getting insufficient storage space issues. I went into recovery mode and wiped the cache through there still no joy. I've searched for the wifi log file using root explorer no joy there. We have resorted to moving most of the apps to sd card and still getting issues. The thing that is frustrating me is that the storage available is nearly 16gb on the internal sd. Is there any way to edit the android system partition size as I think this would solve it?
Regards
Grant
have you tried a factory reset it may work
do you get this error while downloading apps from google play?
Yes, it started when the apps try to update. Already done a factory reset and doesn't help unfortunately. I think it could be that issue with Google play but I couldn't locate the file to delete it. Sorry I sound a bit vague but it's been a couple of weeks and my mate is totally useless when it comes to using Android other than the basic functions so it's a job trying to remember exactly what I viewed to attempt to solve it.
Cheers

1) try deleting Data/cache of 'Google play stores' and 'Google service framework' apps, then reboot ur phone and check.
2) if issue persists then remove ur 'Google a/c' then reboot ur phone and then re-login and see
Also it could be a .odex file casung the error message to appear.
To remove this, go to /data/app in file explorer and remove any .ODEX files of the apps you're trying to update/install
We have tried removing odex files and there aren't any on the phone. He tried clearing the cache and data and now gets the dreaded no connection error on play store any ideas?

Hi. Tried out 4.4.3 (06_06_2014-21_46_36.) today and it works great! First time rooted and installed from 4.0.28 official! Everything went good.
However, when trying to install a big application (Battlefield Commander) or other (happens on some apps), I get the 492 error. I searched for 14hours for solution, for e.g cleaning data & cache on Google Play Store and Google Framework including Download Manegement but no solution. I tried go into SDE and find a setting to remove cache or repair permissions but can't find any. EDIT: Can't even save screenshots or pictures, or anything. says " external storage is maybe being used ".(I dont have a SD card connected, never had one) Thanks for helping out!
