Which App??? Do you have the 16GB/11GB useable model or the 32GB model? How big is your SD Card?

I think it might just be the app I'm trying to download.... Others download just fine. Weird....

Me too! any solution for this issue?

If you back out of the Google play store and try again does that solve it? Back when I had my Dinc & Rezound this would happen from time to time. When it did happen if I closed out the Play store and tried again it would normally correct itself right away. I did some research back then and from various posts just came to the conclusion that it was a sporadic bug with the Play store.

Not sure but maybe try clearing cache and data via your app manager for the play store as well...

Try uninstalling all updates to the Play store app, then re-installing updates again. That was what I did to get instagram installed on my S3. Before that, Play store kept informing me that my device (the S3) was not compatible with instagram.

I have no idea if this will help you, but maybe one of the Play store updates was corrupted when installing....

I'll have to try clearing the store updates when I get home. I'm running into the same issue on both my Galaxy S2 AND my Galaxy Tab 2. Never had the problem until I put the stock jellybean leaks on both. I haven't heard any complaints yet from CM users so it maybe a Samsung bug with 4.1.1..
My GS2 with about 100mb free couldn't even update a 13mb Facebook, and last night my Tab wouldn't let me install a 40mb game when its got 1gb free! Its starting to really irritate me!

Edit: think I got it sorted. There was an .odex file from Angry Birds SW left over in /data/app. I deleted that and bam now it reinstalled.
