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...

Could You open a terminal (X term) and run df -h | head and post a screenshot...?

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...

Basically what You do is this ->
