Just thought I'd share this with you.

I got this error message “Couldn’t install on USB storage or SD card”

The solution is to connect your device to your PC and manually delete the “smdl2temp1” file. The file is likely to reside in 2 locations:

1. /sdcard/.android_secure: this is an invisible folder on your SD card, which you can access with any file manager, like ASTRO
2. /mnt/secure/asec/: access to this folder requires root and a program like Root Explorer

smdl2temp1 is a temporary file. If something goes wrong with a download or installation, the file might get stuck in memory. Next time you try to install, it tries to create this file and fails because it already exists.

Edit by zuperman: If that didn't work there is a detailed option here: www.androidpolice.com/2011/04/19/fixing-...-problem-on-android/

Thanks, I'll put it up as a sticky.

Ok

I, too, am having trouble. I have plenty of space on phone & sd card. Delete, reinstall, open, loads to 50%. Then, message of unpacking. For over an hour. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Unpacking on wifi shouldn't take more than 15 minutes.

I assume you've already tried turning it off and back on, right? You said you've deleted and reinstalled, so... Well, how many times have you tried it? I remember something from *420*, where she said she often had to install over a dozen times before it worked. How many times have you done it?

As of this morning, about 10. I use 4g. Wifi unreliable connection. I'll keep trying. Thanks, RADAR!

5 min. later...got it working. The secret?
Dunk the phone in coffee to wake it up! It seems to have needed it more than I did.

No problem, Paul. Glad I could... Try... To help.

See, thus thread isn't dead, it was just dormant

i deleted then reinstuled

then repete

I am using an Android Pantech phone. Whenever I try to download the app on Google Play, it says "insufficient storage available" even though I have enough memory on both system and SD
