Re: application memory not enough space
 
As the error say it's the "application install memory" (/home/opt) which is low... You have 162.2MB available... How much space does the app need (check under details). Which application is this...? If it is indeed *any* app, that's weird since most apps should fit fine, given the available space You have...

If you are connected to USB, disconnect that and retry.
Else could be related to this bug

yeah it certainly does
ok so i'll do a reflash but i'll flash the emmc this time see how it goes

but 1 thing i would like to know is whats the difference between just doing
1.normal firmware flash(no emmc)
2.doing an emmc flash aswell
is it just a complete wipe?
thanks

Yes, basically... The eMMC stores everything but the rootfs. So flashing both is basically a reset... ;)

Remember when You flash the firmware that You must NOT reboot before flashing the eMMC (don't use -R on the firmware flash command). When flashing the eMMC You can use the -R flag so it reboots when done... ;)
