It happens when you have *.odex files left in /data/app
look there and delete it reboot you are done
are you using lucky patcher?...sometime I have the same problem and I resolve it starting this app
@OP, this method should work for you.

Have you tried the recommended solution yet?
BTW, you should post your question in Note II forum.

the .odex files will be there in Data/apps ma8 check for the same
Odex file could be in the /system/app/ too.

Yes, .odex files could be in either /data/app or /system/app, but I would NOT recommend deleting any .odex files from /system/app. That will break the system application, and won't solve the problem.
The "insufficient storage available" message stems from the system thinking the DATA partition is full. Has nothing to do with /system/app, which is on the system partition.
I had this issue before, and had ZERO .odex files in my /data/app folder. I solved it by clearing data on Google Services Framework, and rebooting.

Try also don't work
If search the internet you will find hundreds of posts linked to this issue of "Insufficient Space" on the Galaxy SII and other Samsung phones. The rather poorly explained "solutions" above do NOT solve the problem. Neither does typing *#9900# and clearing the "dumpstate/logcat". It sometimes clears the error for a short time (like one app update) but usually does not. Clearing the Dalvic Cache did not help either. Nor did manually deleting all log files from /device/data/log/. I have tried a few apps that claim to clear all unnecessary log files and clear the cache. None worked.
So there is obviously a larger problem here!
As many others have posted all over the internet, the Internal Storage (device memory) has plenty of space available. In my case there is 225MB available and yet I am unable to download and install an app of just a few MB. I am unable to update apps that are already installed. I also have over 8GB available on the phone's SD card.
So if anybody really knows the solution to this issue then I (and hundreds others) would be delighted to hear from you.
Many thanks!

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..,

Ususally this happens when you installed that app earlier and did not uninstall it properly. the actual culprit is the App data which remained and is not getting wiped off and the installer is unable to remove or copy on that file. Hence the error message.
Hope this helps
search /data/app for any odex files, usually deleting them will allow you to install it again.
Yes,like 2 friends above mention. I ever have this problem before after install some app and uninstall it but some file still hide in hidden folder and I want to install that app again(new version) the phone tell me that it has insufficient mem. This is my solution. Install root explorer(you need rooted phone) go to sd/data/app and find the file "xxx.xxxx.odex" and delete it(xxxx stand for the name of that app name). After that I can install that app again with no problem.
If you used LP, as said before, some odex may have been left behind. Running
LP again will clean those files...
Hi All,
my issue is related to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44940570#post44940570 but i guess the thread is dead now.
The problem is when i access my gallery it closes and gives me a message that says, "Not enough space, please delete uneccessary items...bla bla."
the solution i used to fix this is to uninstall instagram and reboot my phone. but when i try reinstalling instagram again, the issue comes back.
anyone who has a better fix rather than uninstalling instagram?
BTW, im sure all my storage still has plenty of free space on them. so it is impossible that storage is really the problem.

Don't know about gallery problem, but if you have root you can go to /data/app folder and look for an .odex file (for instagram) and delete it. Reboot now and it should work to install instagram

Then go to CWM wipe data and reboot.
BACKUP BEFORE
Wipe data will deletre all apps, so you should back them up.
There's no need for that. Flash the script from this thread, it should solve your problem without wiping any app or data:

Quite weird. Maybe you should try a full wipe then.. Or flash the script another time, because that worked for me sometimes. Another (temporary) sollution is to download another gallery fron the Play Store.
an update, i wiped my phone and still the issue is there.
i cannot also take photos now, when i try to capture a photo it is not saving on either phone or sd card.
Same problem with me, my solution is open root explorer then go to sd card then change mount r/o to r/w. but it is just temporary solution
i dont know how to fix it rightly.
I had the same problem before.its because corrupted folders. .try read this..and followed the guide

Hey,
Having an issue with my SGS3 where I cannot install a couple of app updates. I keep getting the message 'insufficient storage available' and the updates will not go through. I have almost 3.5gb of free space on the internal memory and about the same on my SD card...
I am using the latest version of the following ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705866&page=284
I don't have enough posts on here to post this question in there....
FWIW, the apps are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Movies from Flixster.
I have deleted my cache, davlik cache, fixed permissions, re-booted various times etc. and nothing solved it; any ideas on what I could try?

Download Lucky Pacher APK, install and run it. It automatically deletes unused ODEX files. Those Odex files are probably the cause of your error.
You must be rootrd.
