1) Try closing and restarting the emulator. If you're using the "save to snapshot"-feature, disable it on the next emulator-launch (i.e. don't choose "launch from snapshot")

2) Uninstall your app (if it has been successfully installed before) through the Settings-->"Applications" menu from within the emulator

3) Finally, if these don't help, increse the SD card-size of your emulator through the AVD-Manager settings

You need to increase the Android emulator's memory capacity. There are 2 ways to do that,

  1. Right click the root of your Android Project, go to "Run As" then go to "Run Configurations..." locate the "Android Application" node in the tree at the left, then select your project and go to the "Target" tab on the right side of the window look down for the "Additional Emulator Command Line Options" field (sometimes you'll need to make the window larger) and finally paste "-partition-size 1024" there. Click Apply and then Run to use your emulator.

  2. Go to Eclipse's Preferences, then Select "Launch" Add “-partition-size 1024” on the "Default emulator option" field, then click "Apply" and use your emulator as usual.
