I have a rooted international S3 running Paranoid Android. Can't update/install any app as I get the error 'Insufficeint Storage'! The internal storage has around 6 GB free. Also, I cleared the Dalvik Cache from Recovery and manually cleared every app's cached infomation. Uninstalled several apps and yet all of these efforts lead to no good!

Any help would be highly appreciated.. TIA

Install this simple little app called Storage Truth. It's very small and will install in very limited space. It will tell you how much space you actually have left for installing apps:

To make space you can:

Delete texts or emails. If you have a lot saved on the phone, this can help.
Delete or move photos, videos, documents, etc.
Uninstall app updates.
Uninstall apps.
Clear cache files. However, this is mostly a waste of time since it will only make space temporarily as cache files will rebuild over time. Also, while clearing cache files won't hurt anything, they're there to speed up operation and should be left alone.

If you can't move stuff to a SD card, move them to your computer or cloud storage.
