so should we try to increase disk-size to 4GB by using https://github.com/ReactiveCircus/android-emulator-runner#configurations disk-size for the action we use in workflow?

looks like it's been recently increase though

As per https://b.corp.google.com/issues/255600573, the default in Android Studio is now 6G. Let's change to this value.

Still getting this issue after updating disk space to 6G: https://github.com/android/nowinandroid/actions/runs/3311589098/jobs/5522642374

according to the most upvoted answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4709137/solution-to-install-failed-insufficient-storage-error-on-android
The problem with android itself, looks like we have few options:

1. Try add 'force-avd-creation: true' for preventing using cached emulator which might have two apk files for our package
2. Add cli step to remove apk files :

adb shell "pm uninstall <full.packge.name>" adb shell "rm -rf /data/app/<full.package.name>-*"

@YuraLaguta Thanks for the suggestion, am trying force-avd-creation in https://github.com/android/nowinandroid/pull/375.

@dturner Seems like we don't have this issue anymore, closing.
