it just started doing this out of nowhere, but i cant even open up my contacts or even click on programs without it saying "no program memory available. tap start, settings, stystem tab, memory, stop programs that did not stop automatically. i tried a hard resest and it worked fine till it reset, then started doing it again. is there anything i can do?
ok, now it seems i can only open media player, but if i click on something such as programs, internet explorer, anything like that it just does nothing. if i hit contacts button it just makes the error beep, and if i hit calander it says the no memory error. could this be a corrupt rom?
I have seen another SX66 do this, I have no idea what the cause of this behavior is, but a rom update couldn't hurt. Good luck!

Does anyone know how to uninstall this? When i try to do it on the phone or over Activesync I get a warning message that it could not remove all of the program and ultimately the entire program is still installed. It takes up too much room for what it does (and I think there's a battery issue with it as well) Thanks

Try using the Uninstall application of this program: http://www.dinarsoft.com/memmaid/ Once the program is uninstalled, just delete the remaining folders and then run the Quick Clean and that should remove all remnants of the Uninstalled program.
Thanks. It helped to remove mobitv and xmradio which were entirely useless to me and took up a lot of room. However, when I tried to uninstall memmaid it left a few bits behind - there are folders remaining in the program directory... in fact the MobiTv icon still exists in my program directory leading me to beleive that it's just deleting a folder and not removing the program from my reigstry, etc. It's a start though. Thanks again
Re: uninstall
This may be a silly question, but was VC cooked into the rom originally or did you install it yourself? If it was cooked in you will not be able to remove it. (As is true for any cooked in application.)
Best wishes,

Quick question; when using MemMaid, did you use the Quick Clean with all items checked? by default not all are checked.
Dead shortcuts
Dead Registry
Bad uninstall (files)
Bad Uninstall (Registry)
These are just a few items I would make sure are checked..
Thanks for the help guys. It was not part of a cooked rom and after checking the boxes on memmaid and rebooting a few times VC is gone (and 5 megs are free). After uninstalling memmaid (it's 900k - I can't keep that around ) it just left an empty folder called "Handyswitch actions" that I'm just going to manually delete. Thanks for the help. I was this close to deciding between keeping Skyfire and outlook

Sorry, during install of MemMaid you could of unchecked the handyswitcher and whatever extras you didn't need and they wouldn't have installed. Glad to see you has some success though.

You can't install MS VC to storage card and have it work correctly unfortunatly.
I've had same issue whilst installing MSVC to storage card and had tp install it to phone. I also had same problem trying to uninstall it. Luckily I wanted to upgrad my ROM which solved the problem
As I've been using my phone I learned there's a new glitch - if I use autocomplete to fill in text or complete an email address, etc it crashes my phone (I think pasting text does too). This didn't happen a day ago so I think there's a connection to the uninstallation of VC. I've reset it 5 times and it's always the same result. The screen becomes nonresponsive, switching to landscape mode takes about 45 seconds and doesn't solve anything and both the onscreen keyboard (Happy Tapping) and the hard keyboard fail to function. If I wait it out I can get the start menu to drop down and get to the Today screen but navigation is still brutally slow there and the email sits. I Use o2plus and it shows apps are running but doesn't state them (it's pOutlook that is frozen). Any ideas? I wish PPC had 'last good state' like Windows... thanks again
I have VC on my memory card and have no problem... Dont know why you have though.

Can anybody please help me?
All my market downloads stall at "Starting download..."
Rom: Stock WWE
Kernel: richardtrips OCUV v14
/Erik97
EDIT: I solved it with a factory reset.
Is your card setup OK in your Google account?
yes, but im not buying any apps.
i cant even download free apps.
I'm having the same/similar problem with newly purchased apps... it seems I have to keep aborting downloading and retry a few time before it works... free apps or previously paid ones are fine.
mine doesnt even download free apps!
It happens to me when phone memory drops below 15 MB, check your memory...
Nah, happens to me sometimes, even though I'm using APPS2SD+, so no memory problems. Switching WiFi on and off and restarting the download seems to sort it out eventually, but I'm not sure it does anything that just waiting wouldn't do. Very annoying anyways.
signing into Google Talk (Talk) solves the problem

Yeah, I used to have the same problem on my Hero, and what StrongOneX says is true....though hardly a solution, more a workaround I'd say.
Just wondered of you'd changed your google email to gmail recently? i did, and google talk and hence market stopped working. Its a bug google knows about, and has not managed to solve for about 3 weeks now! If this is the case, then change it back to googlemail via settings and under accounts tab.
thank you everybody, I solved i with a factory reset.
This has been happening to me as well today, I can't download anything, even if I use wi-fi.
Is there someone else out there with the same problem? (I don't really wanna do a factory reset...)
had similar probs after reverting from froyo rom to mcr 3.1, tried activating gtalk, reboots, on/off wifi, changing gmail accts etc, eventually had to do a factory reset
For me, it turned out that having the "low memory space" warning blocked any download from the Market.
I had to uninstall a couple of apps to resolve this. Very annoying.
my phone doesn't sign in Gtalk neither
it steel hangs on starting download mood! also my modem shows some data transfer
someone help
So only option is factory reset for this?
I get download failed notification....
(3g or wifi no difference)
PLEASE EDIT FIRST POST! This does **NOT** require factory reset: MISLEADING "solved"

THIS is the correct answer: You don't have to do any factory reset. It's a very simple -- ANNOYING YES -- but consistent easy to remedy issue.
Invariably, you will be getting a warning in notification bar about "Empty Space getting low" .... Well, unlike most warnings that you can ignore until it maybe says "NO MORE SPACE", pretty much from the moment you get that notification, the phone blocks you from further Marketplace downloads as a self-protection mechanism. Annoyingly, it doesn't TELL you that more specifically... You just see the list of apps that you thought were downloading in the background instead just stuck in a queue, as though simply trying to connect to the server to start the download. When in fact they are stalled due to LOW SPACE...
Android should solve this by a better form of NOTIFICATION -- at the point where you click "download" or OK, whatever the final screen-action is after you approve the access the app will have to your phone.
THE REMEDY IS SIMPLE, but annoying: and you can do it many ways:
(1) Easiest way is to click on the "LOW SPACE" notification item itself (after pulling down the notification bar) ... That takes you directly to Android's native Apps Removal Tool -- where the best thing to do is first: Sort by FILE SIZE. Then you will have to sacrifice something you probably don't use anyway, or if you do it's rarely -- like a 2nd music/radio player, or YELP type app, or a second Keyboard app or browser... dump it... try to dump about 5 MB
OR
(2) Use your favorite Apps Removal Tool ... The only thing I would say is, I have found that various Apps Removal Tools don't always gain access to things like FONT PACKS you've installed or weather widget icon-packs that you could dump -- whereas the native tool does.
NOTE: Plan on waiting 30 seconds or so afterwards. It isn't instantaneous like when you clear a PRINT QUEUE on your printer by killing a bunch of files -- and then suddenly the printing resumes. For whatever reason it takes a moment or two -- but from the moment that Notification Icon for "low empty space" disappears from the bar, your downloads in queue will RESUME DOWNLOADING in an instant.
---
And now, I am guessing this will all become a MOOT POINT with apps2SD and Froyo! -- but, I still don't have froyo -- and prob some of you others don't either...
Even with Froyo part of the app stays on the phone after transferring it to SD and that's if you're lucky enough to have apps that support the move to SD option.

I dont have the low warning and have lots of space and cant get the downloads to start. Pitiful.

Hi, I'm having an issue with the "Low on Space" notification. I deleted many applications, a moved my videos to my PC, the memory is like half available (free), and the "Low on Space" notification won't go away. Even after pulling out the battery several times.
-Another issue that happened since this notification is there is that GMAIL won't push. Not even if I manually sync. (or try to sync). It just won't do it.
-It won't download any application from the market. Probably because it thinks there is no space. It displays the downloading icon for ever.
Either way, these two last issues may be related to the Google email account set up on the phone. It's not asking for a password or anything. to fix this I would need to do a reset, but I would lose all my information!
I have the latest upgrades and it's stock.
If anyone has an idea please let me know. Thanks.
I'd just wipe the phone and start from scratch.
fixed, for now.
It was fixed. Strange.
I wiped, but only the gmail accounts. Then I recreated them again. Finally they were able to sync. The Market would download applications again. the "low on space" msg is gone.
I would like to know what triggered this...
Something else I did right before it worked again. I uninstalled the Ebay application. Coincidence?

Perhaps not. I can imagine the cache for that can get quite large.
While this is not conclusive, it might be worth trying again, and when the
"low on space messages occur" try going to manage apps > ebay > clear cache
to see if that makes the difference. If it does, you'll know for sure.

how were you able to wipe only the gmail accounts? I'm having the exact same problems and can't figure it out for the life of me. Another thing that I noticed is that gTalk will not start at all...
I use Cubed music player mainly for my music, but today I found that all of my music tracks were duplicated (or triplicated, if that is a word!). I checked with the connected music player as well, and even there there were multiple listings. However, only one track will play.
I then moved all the tracks to my HDD but the listings were still there, and wouldn't play. I tried to search for playlists but could not find any. Also, if I delete any (fake) file using the connected player, the main track gets automatically deleted from the SD.
I could transfer all the files again to my HDD and delete all the files using the connected player, but then I have to do this for hundreds of songs as I can delete only one file at once. I searched and found this to be quite common problem, but there were no solutions! Can anyone please help me with this? I am going bonkers!
Getty going into settings-applications, manage applications, then select' media storage' and clear data.
Thanks but no thanks I went to manage applications settings screen but there was no 'media storage' to clear data. Is there anything else that I can try?
Should have said to make sure you look in the 'all' tab in manage applications, the default view is only ' downloaded'.
There are no tabs at all in the screen!! I am running on stock eclair.

The same problem happened to me, I even got so desperate I deleted all of my music in my SD card, but the crappy Connect Music Player doesn't give you an option to at least scan your library, right?
This happened to me when I tried using WinAMP on my phone, I guess there's something wrong with using 3rd party apps. -shrug-
I tried a lot of "scan media" apps from the market, but none of them worked for me. Check those out, maybe that can work for you.
In the end, I did a factory reset and that solved my problem.

Use the app button, first on the left.
Sent from my MB525
@psixda: Which app button? There is no app button! Is it possible for you to help me with some screenshots?
@Zinshin: I want to avoid that path if I can
If you don't have a way to see all your applications in 'manage applications', I think you have a problem or you have gone into a different menu.
Problem Solved!
@superfastmonkey: Thanks for all your help, but sadly it did not work as I am still looking for that tab! However, I found a solution:
I had another MicroSD card which I swapped in the current one. Voila, the dummy playlist was not there. But when I inserted the original card, it came back. So the problem is with the card, right? I simply backed up all the folders to my HDD and formatted the card. (NOTE: The copied size was different; I guess there was some problem in the card as hidden files options was checked). Anyways, after formatting, I copied everything back and lo and behold, everything works fine and I won't go insane anymore over this!
If you have Eclair, in manage aplications there are no tabs.
You have to push the menu button (bottom-left, obviously), and there must be an option like "view" or something similar. In there should be "All".
"Media Storage" could be written in your language. In my spanish phone, it is "Almacenamiento de medios".
Good luck!

Nah.. it's not there. If I hold down the menu button, I get two options:
1. Sort
- by size
- a to z
2. Filter
- All
- Running
- Downloaded
Anyways, does not matter now. As I said, problem solved
EDIT: Now it struck me.. All!!
