Hello there, I was wondering if this happens to anyone else. Basically I have no more than 15-20 apps on my phone and I have cleared the cache and data from all of them and moved (all the possible) apps to my SD Card.

This is my current storage information:

App storage 2.70/2.91GB
Apps: 0.89GB
Other: 1.81GB
Available: 214MB

Phone storage 1.52MB/1.09GB
Available: 1.09GB

SD card 1.32/1.84GB
Apps: 324MB
Music: 1.28MB
Photos & videos: 223MB
Downloads: 16.40MB
Other: 790MB
Available: 592MB

Basically, I can't download any apps or update them. I keep getting "Error: Insufficient Storage available" It's becoming very annoying and I hardly have that many apps, if I keep deleting them I will soon only have the default apps that came with the phone. I don't understand why I can't use the phone storage to store apps, I have no really large apps either so its not like one app is taking up the full 2GB.

Any suggestions is appreciated, thanks

Before you say I should upgrade, I can't when I click check for updates none are found.

Unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, do a full wipe and install OmniROM or CyangenMod while you're at it. The lack of space is due to bloatware placed by the carrier and HTC. When you flash a custom ROM you no longer have the bloat.
