    Can't install Apps

    Rooted and overclocked
    Had no trouble downloading apps until yesterday. Downloaded and installed NYTimes ok but
    when I went to download USA Today downloaded and proceeded to install but came back with installation of USA Today unsuccessful. Removed NYTimes, still couldn't install USA. Tried to install other apps including NYTimes, but get the same message. Got plenty of memory. Also have Tiamat 1.3.2. Everything else appears to be working OK including already installed apps. Any thougths??

    plenty of memory for the apps themselves isn't enough. for some reason, the Xoom needs a few GB free in space (about 2 or so) in order to install apps.

    Should be enough.
    I just had 900MB free, and installing Moboplayer resulted in an unsuccessful install. After deleting a few GB of movies, it worked fine.

    Did you do the SD-card hack? that might have caused it.

    Can't install from either. Market or web.

    do you have an SD card in the slot?

    I haven't modded/rooted mine, so I don't know where the hack actually mounts the SDcard, but it it actually places it at /sdcard, it might be causing complications, try putting it in or taking it out and see if install works then.

    tried it both ways with no luck. Without any change to system I was able to update the Kindle apt, install the audible apt and initially install the NYT apt. I don't believe I made any changes, but right after I installed the NYT apt I was unable to install the USAToday apt. I uninstalled the NYT apt and tried to install the USA apt but couldn't. This all happened in less than 15 minutes, I didn't make any system changes between installation tries.
