Insufficient storage when updating apps. - LG Revolution

Lg revo , marble 2.5 , gingervolt 1.3, and v6 supercharger. When I try to download and app or update one from the market it says insufficient storage. I've checked the internal and the sd card , should be more then enough room. Any suggestions as to what's causing this ?

I get that too, with the automatic updates. I just go in and do it manually, and that usually does it.

Try moving some apps to your sd card and see if it helps. The internal storage space is different from the internal app storage.

I would assume that switching the apps as long as they are not something that you have an active widget on to your as card you should be able to do the update then

I bought the apps2sd app and don't seem to have the issue anymore , thanks for the input

do u mean "moving apps to SD card" or backing up apps?
backing up apps: no effect on system performance. this is used only to backup to reinstall/restore later.
moving to SD: it could slow down a bit. I don't see a need for this on captivate, since captivate has so much more memory available for system and data, compared to a lot of other devices.
It would have no effect on speed. Lime previous poster said, you ha e plenty of resources available.

Did you try downloading it from a wifi connection? I haven't cared to know if there is a max size you can download over the mobile data connection, but its always worth a try. I've encountered the problem on the old market before and can't remember if I used wifi to download it or what I did. Good luck, anyway.
Yeah I am using the leaked market and I was using wifi.
Are you on stock rom? Are you using a lagfix?
I was using a rom with voodoo lagfix when I first got the new market, and I got the not enough room error when I had 1.5 gig available. What I did was disable the voodoo lagfix reboot, then install an app from the market to get it to work. Once I installed one app I was then able to re-enable the lagfix and the market has worked just fine ever since.

[Q] 3 Storage areas????

ok so this is a simple question i know but conflicting topics have made me post this
i have 1gb system memory
5gb phone memory
29gb of sdcard space
So in short.... WHY CANT I MOVE ANYTHING TO MY ext_SD(the removable one) CARD I HAVE A CLASS 10 32GB SD CARD IM NOT ABLE TO UTILIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*UPDATE EDIT=So looks like the culprit is yet again a phone company making mods to android
+1 to Close the open source!! and go back to google phones.. LG, MOTO, HTC, they all just bloat the sh** out of the phone and take away the modding capabilities
so if anyone has any advice on how or what i can move to my 32GB Ext_SD card... please let me know
I have no problem moving all as compatible apps to the as card. Some apps just don't have that option though.

Some of the games and such are adapted to save on sdcard
Look through o3d forum
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
OK, I have a quasi solution for you I just thought about. /sdcard is internal and /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ is the your transflash card. Most apps are made to save data to /sdcard which does become an issue when some of the kickass games like shadowgun download 250MB plus of data plus all of your roms and media. What you could do, I gather, is move the directories like those game data directories to /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ and then crate a symlink to it with the same name in sdcard. It's probably what I'LLC do when this last GB is gone, lol.

That's a good idea just put them in the extra SD through the computer or if I can move it with astro maybe ill try that
Hopefully at least I can move my roms since they are the biggest space taker

No, he's talking about the external SD card...as in the card that you can pull out that stores your pictures and videos on. When you move an application on this phone to the SD card, it actually moves it to internal SD application storage. This is my second thrill and neither will move apps to the external SD card.
When you click on apps2sd app and move an app watch and see that your external SD card memory doesn't change at all.
You can edit vold.fstab to,switch how the cards are used

Okay. Continue. I'm listening.
I have a 32 gig SD card I bought specifically to be able to move a ton of apps there. I haven't been able to do so and would love to rather than being limited to the 8 gigs on the phone.
Hope this helps

That method did not work, did not even recognize my sd card ("internal" or "external")
I can post that file when I get home tonight and see if anyone can get them edited.
Okay. Just tell me if I'm wrong. What I'm referring to and what I think the OP was referring to was that external SD card that you buy at the store where you store your music and pictures on. The SanDisk.
The other storage is internal storage, then there's system memory.
Cm7 fixes this.

I fried my memory card and now im screwed.....

My memory card got fried and all the games that i had transferred to SD are gone as well. I thought this would be a simple process of buying a new SD card in which I did and reinstalling the app. WRONG.... everytime I try to reinstall the games that were lost my phone would say "REPLACE APPLICATION" and of course I would select OK, it would go thru the entire motions of installing and then in the end would say "APP NOT INSTALLED". So apparently even if the games were lost when my SD card got fried there are reminants left somewhere on the Phone. Does anyone know exactly where i would be able to find the reminants of these games so I can reinstall it without any problems ?

How did you move the apps to sd card? Android mechanism or 3rd party app like app2sd or other.

What about using the amazon marketplace on your pc to push it? Not sure if amazon has this function because I don't use amazon.

How fried is the sd card? Data recovery is pretty good with solid state if it is just a partition/mbr/fs/vol issue. If it is truly done and won't show up at all in disk management, then probably done. But if it shows up at all in management, even if it has no partition info or raw, it should be recoverable.

just re-install via amazon appstore.
Did you wipe dalvik and cache?
Several system cleaners in the play store that cleanup left over app stuff. Try one.
If none of these work, the entries that need to be deleted are in a config file somewhere, no clue which one.
Use TiBu to back up your settings and data, wipe and reflash phone.
