Installation Error Install_failed_insufficient_storage Android Device
Android [closed] up vote 400 down vote favorite 139 The INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE error is the bane of every Android developer's life. It happens regardless of app size, or how much storage is available. Rebooting the target device fixes the problem briefly, but it soon comes back. There are hundreds (if not thousands) of message board posts from people asking why the problem occurs, but the folks at install failed insufficient storage bluestacks Google are frustratingly silent on the issue. There is a simple workaround. If your test device is running Android 2.2 or later then add the android:installLocation attribute to your application's manifest file, with the value "preferExternal". This will force the app to be installed on the device's external storage, such as a phone's SD card.

Just keep in mind that sometimes when you see the error, what the error message says isn't actually true. –Lance Nanek Jun 5 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2239330/how-to-increase-storage-for-android-emulator-install-failed-insufficient-stora '10 at 17:56 1 @Pentinum10 i am getting the same error on both 1.5 and 2.2 , checkout this question where your help required: stackoverflow.com/questions/3584297/… , please help me and catch me out –Paresh Mayani Aug 28 '10 at 6:52 add a comment| 18 Answers 18 active oldest votes up vote 108 down vote accepted I was searching for the answer to this question, and was unsatisfied with the above answers. But then I found the answer, so here it is for future reference: To summarize (and clarify), in Eclipse, go to "Debug Configurations". You can find that in the drop-down under the "debug" icon. Select "target", and select a preferred emulator target to launch. Then under "additional emulator command line options," add this: -partition-size 1024 Then CLOSE the emulator (and remove any devices), and click the debug icon, which will launch the preferred emulator you selected. This is important: Eclipse needs to launch the debugger, not AVD. That fixed the problem for me. share|improve this answer edited Dec 20 '12 at 5:51 onkar 2,68942250 answered Oct 15 '10 at 20:33 SomeCallMeTim 1,98811219 8 Note that the "partition-size" is in megabytes, and that generally to install an APK you need at least twice as much disk space as the size of the APK. –Christopher Orr Dec 26 '10 at 17:11 1 @Christophe here for a quick overview of the site Help Center Detailed answers to any questions you might have Meta Discuss the workings and policies http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23125126/adb-install-fails-with-error-install-failed-insufficient-storage of this site About Us Learn more about Stack Overflow the company http://www.prandroid.com/2016/02/solution-installfailedinsufficientstora.html Business Learn more about hiring developers or posting ads with us Stack Overflow Questions Jobs Documentation Tags Users Badges Ask Question x Dismiss Join the Stack Overflow Community Stack Overflow is a community of 4.7 million programmers, just like you, helping each other.

Refer this link for details. The only thing Sony advice is to root the device, partition and use third party apps install failed insufficient to move it. They also mention that rooting may void warranty. My Android Details of Sony Xperia M is listed below Model number C1904 Android version 4.1.2 Build number 15.1.C.2.8 I have tried running the below commands from some forum and it is not working for me, adb devices adb shell pm get-install-location adb shell pm set-install-location 2 Though the above commands doesn't prompt any error and I can get the install location as 2 (with adb shell pm get-install-location). So I believe it has set properly. But then I tried installing some apps and it is only installing in the internal memory only. I have tried 'apps2sd' utility to move my apps and it is showing the below error, 'The device does not have a real primary external storage, or the primary external storage is emulated. Moving app to SD function cannot be supported by this device.' Finally from another forum, I understand that we can install apk files through 'adb install' command to install directly into the sd card as below, adb install -s C:\com.furkan0gul.mvanparking.apk The above command fails with th in Android or Android Studio 1:36 AM Android Studio, Android Tutorials Eclipse will sometimes say this: [2010-11-20 11:41:57 - My Cool Ass Application] Installation error: INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE [2010-11-20 11:41:57 - My Cool Ass Application] Please check logcat output for more details. [2010-11-20 11:41:57 - My Cool Ass Application] Launch canceled! This is cute and utterly annoying. In fact, this has caused me to completely give up on coding boated Android/Java for the day on a few occasions. waiting for the AVD to reboot - sucks. This Google Groups post says to restart the emulator. Yeah, thanks Google. At first I gave the emulator the benefit of the doubt and thought, "hey, my app has an mp3 compiled into it making it rather big (12MB), maybe I should move the mp3 to the SD Card upon installation or put the mp3 somewhere online and stream it to the system. Then I clicked on Settings->Applications->Manage Applications and the Android AVD said this: You do not have any third party applications installed. After hours of research, I figured out that this error means nothing at all. If you reattempt to upload your project (CTRL+F11) it will not solve the non-existent error. This means that you need to either restart the AVD (Android virtual machine you are testing the project on), or sometimes it gets so bad you need to restart the emulator too. If you still get it, you need to delete the AVD and create a new instance: Window->Android SDK AVD Manager->Delete->New... Sometimes the Error console will say that it just brought the old version to the front screen! This is AFTER you tell the IDE to upload and install a new version. How disrespectful! Speed is another thing to consider. I use CTRL+F11 to hurry up and upload the app to the device and run it.
