Didn't know where to post this, it seems a problem online but I cannot narrow down a solution that isn't for a specific device.
HTC One International version, running Android 4.3 Elegancia 13
Everytime I try to install the Whatsapp application, it states "insufficient storage" when I do have about 4gb of storage left.
It happened when I tried to update the application, so I uninstalled and the same error popped up.
Any ideas on fixing? I cleared the cache on Google Play Services, and data but that just screwed up Android Device Manager...
Thanks guys
PS: I have contacted Whatsapp, they're useless.
find & delete .odex whatsapp file
or try reflashing your ROM

Hello everyone, I have a problem with the market! any rom I install every time I go in the My Library section of the market did not detect applications installed on the device ... and the problem occurs, I think, every time I restore with TB ... I tried to wipe data. I tried deleting the cache of the market, uninstall, reinstall .. but nothing .. the problem is the strange thing is that the market via the web applications I know about them, and even if I download applications from the nexus of the market, not transferred in "my library" .. please help me!
I translated with google translate everything, forgive the poor English

That wipe data and deleting the cache normally work for me but in your case it didn't work... Have you try remove your gmail account and the add it back to see it will sync back... Or while on market search apps you already install just to see it remark 'installed' or not.
I did everything you told me and still does not work ... in the search, apps already installed remark "installed" or "update"...the problem is just on My Library section
you can try to delete the market cache and install 1 app. Or you can use the doctormarket from titanium backup
i've done this, but the problem remains!
[Q] False "Insufficient storage" error - can't install Foldermount, nothing works
OK, on SOME apps, but not others, I can't install them because of the dreaded "insufficient storage available" error (and yes, I have tons of storage available - 3.12gb, and an SD card with 30gb). I mainly want it for Foldermount which is a whopping 1.26MB or something like that. Titanium Backup says the same thing too But hey, if I want to install GTAIII it works, it is not purely a size issue.
I'm rooted, standard Xperia firmware.
Here is what I've tried after two days of research:
- Clearing the dalvik cache with root explorer
- Uninstalling updates for google play store & google services
- Removing my google account and re-adding
- Removing any .odex files related to the apps
- Sideloading the app rather than rely on the Play store (different error message, same problem - "Foldermount could not be installed. Free up some space and try again.")
- LuckyPatcher (this can be used for piracy so not discussing it further, but for the record it runs into the same problem)
Other things I've seen suggested or seem random that I have tried:
- Setting to "automatic date and time" (done, no difference)
- Trying it over mobile data vs wifi (Waste of time)
- Link2SD's storage location settings (well, I don't have Link2SD, I installed it and App2SD isn't supported on the ZR so I can't change anything)
Apps that won't work due to this problem that I am desperate for:
- Foldermount
- Marketfix
- Titaniumbackup
Do these have something in common related to storage? How the hell do I sort this out?
Help, please! I'm desperate here! :crying::crying::crying:

kidnly check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317432 and make sure busybox is updated and root is running 100%, I'm currently on 4.3 with 100% working foldermount
Same Problem
I have the same problem, but just a different device. I have an LG Optimus L90 and i have 1.82GB available, but i just cant download folder mount. Please tell me if you found a fix
I'm new here but i wanna know why you remove odex files from the phone
May be it's the problem
I think you need to factory reset and try gain (to install folder mount & other apps)
Or you will need to flash the rom again
I have the same problem when free space of the internal storage drops to around 500MB. Usually I free up spaces used by app caches. I use Disk Usage to easily find which apps take up the space.

Yesterday i was update my Wechat to version 5.1, after updated, when i want to open the apps, its always force close. I try several times but still unable open the apps.

I had try to install other apps and have no problem on this. Any idea what happen on this?
Sorry for my poor english..
I am unable to install Greenify donation pack - it went corrupt today - dont know how - I keep getting an error message post download from play store - "cannot install on SD card or USB storage". I have done a factory reset but it doesn't help - the problem still exists. Also, I read this post but I cannot locate either the .android_secure on my phone or the said file smdl2tmp1.asec through ES file explorer. Please help!!
I finally solved the issue by re-installing the rom. I downgraded to Sense 5.5 with nandroid, unrooted, re-applied the Sense 6 OTA, did a factory reset wiping internal storage. Voila! I can now install Greenify donation!
PS: The issue was with all the paid apps, so definately something was wrong with my phone only and not Greenify. Relief!
I've installed lollipop using TWRP and recovering a backup, and everything seems to be fine, except for the fact that now I can't install apps, neither from apks, Google play, can't even update them. When I do from apk it simply says "application not installed" and from Google play it gives an error 504,which you usually fix deleting the apps data and cache, and Google services's too, but that doesn't work.
I was able to do it at first, after I made it 5.0.2,installed all my previous apps, updated the old ones, except Chrome that never allowed me to update it. But now I can't install or update any app. Any idea what could it be?
I thought it may be related to writing permissions but if that was the case I'd have had he problem right from the beginning.
Could it be a problem with the version of Android I installed itself? I mean I could flash apps in, but not install them in the usual ways.
