Alright, so Ive been saving things to my storage card and what not; But my Hd2 is telling me my devices main memory is running low on space.
Wtf?
I dont save things to the main memory, Im saving it to the Storage Card, 16 Gb. I cant even get the full potential of my Storage Card because my Hd2, keeps warning me that my memory is low. I have loads of space still on my storage card, but my main device has 3 Mb left.
This is very aggitating.
Can someone check this out, cause Im completly lost.
Lack of memory
Sorry, I can't help as the same thing is frustrating me also.
Only way i found was to limit the amount of applications on the phone.
Even if you install to your SD card, your phone memory goes up also.
Grrrrrrr
opera cache, windows temp, youtube cache, photo album cache, install temp folder,,,, and more, they're all in main memory and fill up.
search on clearing temp folders.
windows/opera9/profiles/cache
windows/temp
application data/volatile
windows/profiles/guest/(3 sub folders)
temp/
just to get you started.
oh and some good reading here

Hi all!
I'm getting the notification int he status bar that the phone storage is low and I can't install some app on the phone memory but I've got around 20MB free on the phone storage... what's happening?
I suggest you move some apps to SD
Yes, that's the solution but my question is why I get this alert and I can't install other app wven if I've got room in the phone storage (aroung 15/20MB)?
Because you're not supposed to go lower than 20MB of free space. Applications cache stuff, therefore further reducing that amount.
In short, that just reserves the phone some space to use data for applications. Not to mention Dalvik VM.
Go to the apps folder, move the biggies into the sd card.. if u don't have enough space, sms bouces off (can't get it!!!!)
My X10s internal storage memory is getting low, like 75MB, what do I do to remedy this, and what's causing it.
it's normal.. Android fills the memory - upto a preset threshold.. so when the "user" calls for a frequently used app, it's likely to already be in memory, allowing it to launch it more quickly..
If you're having problems with the phone getting slow, then suggest something like Task Manager to kill apps that you don't need to be held in memory - BUT only use it to kill apps that don't automatically restart, otherwise you'll only end up fighting with your phone, and using more battery!
No , I mean the internal storage memory, not the RAM, it's getting low. And I'm not sure why.
Ah.. I see.. well the obvious answer is that you've got a lot of apps on there.. ?
If it's not that, then could be a crappy app that's storing stuff on the phone, rather than the SD card...
Try clearing the caches of EVERY APP and UTILITY. I do it every night before I go to bed.
My internal storage keeps filling up completely and I can't seem to get to the bottom of it. I first noticed the problem about a month ago...so I deleted all my big games, which left me with about 1.8GB of space on internal storage. Since then, I have only installed a couple of small apps and my internal storage in completely full again.... showing 0mb available.
There are no pictures, videos or music files of any kind currently stored on my phone.
Thanks!
Nothing? Google is getting me nowhere... fast I'll keep digging for now.
Download the app "Disk Usage" and run it for whichever storage (internal or external) and it will list everything installed in a graphical version.

Thank you for that. I was easily able to get to the bottom of this using that app. Here are the big offenders on my phone:
\sdcard\Android\Data\com.amazon.venezia\cache = deleted all the files in this directory and it freed up 3.7GB.
Uninstalled google currents and deleted the entire directory \sdcard\Android\Data\com.google.android.apps.currents = free up over 3GB.
I now have over 6GB of free space on my phone after making those two changes. CRAZY!!!!
Also keep an eye on the following folders and make sure you clean them from time to time.
LazyList
LOST.DIR
temp
Also the Download folder grows very quickly if you download many things from the Browser or email.
I have managed to free several gigabytes this way.
Cheers!

Oh wow I wish I had know about this earlier! I just cleared up 5GB of junk I didn't need anymore.

These are the two screenshot of my phone storage and internal SD card space, I have enough on both of them but somehow its not enough every once in a while my email and other services stops randomly saying storage space running out! I had to uninstall a game which was 55mb in size but still it shows the same error and automatically goes away saying storage space is enough now.. when I didn't do anything. I am not even able to update my apps because of that. What's the matter with this?
