The Fix:
Note: I suggest you backup your sd card before you try this method. It worked perfectly on my Galaxy Ace but there is no guarantee that it might not cause any data loss.
- Connect your phone to your PC as a mass storage device
- Backup important data
- Find the folder named “.android_secure”
- Inside it, delete the file called “smdl2tmp1.asec”
- Disconnect your phone
- Install the App you were trying to install
Hope this helps you 🙂
