Pictures by default should save to the SD card. Text messages, internet history and cookies have nothing to do with that.
Clearing the cache on programs on your SD card might help a little bit. But bottom line buy a bigger SD card for more space on that end.
Internal memory... Well you can move what apps can be moved to the SD card or delete a bunch of stuff. Or you can convert to a MTD rom (if you aren't already). MTD roms use a different partition in the phone, and it has almost double the internal memory.

so i have about 20000 (yes, 20,000) sms and its eating up a lot of my phones memory. However, I have a 1gb sd card thats 99% free on my phone.. Is it possible for me to transfer all the txt msgs to the SD card and still be able to view them somehow.
I have txt all backed up, I just don't know how to view them if i just store them on the SD card. is there a text viewer or whatever?
Thanks for the help.

Wow! Well, the WM app wont let you store them on the memory card, from searching it looks like a security measure. (todo with remote wiping ect it seems)
Maybe a 3rd party SMS program might be able to, not sure as of right now.

oh of course of course.
i don't want the new messages to be stored on the SD CARD.
however, i want to store all the old sms on the SD card and be able to view them through a software on my phone
and for the new sms, they can be stored on the memory as usual.
the reason i want to do this is because i have a habit of looking up my old sms to remind myself some of the tasks.
WHOA!!
20000 SMS?? hmm I have that many in my email box but not SMS? will be watching this with interest

i know this is rare. i been doing research regarding to text viewer on a removable memory however nothing found
Try "export", I'm sure there are programs that can export your messages to a plain text file so it can be read by *anything*
This looks promising, but you may have to pay.
Hey,
What would be the easiest way to get rid of FB/Flickr sync ... it appears that FB/Flickr data is stored on internal memory and by my estimates is hogging way too much storage space for no good reason. Contact photos etc should really be saved to SD card ... sigh.
This whole tiny internal memory and inability to store data such as this on SD card is really getting to me. I only have a hand full of apps installed ... according to ASTRO my installed apps add up to around 50Mb and according to SD & Phone Storage I only have 30Mb left ...
Cheers.
I keep getting the "Memory Full" message, even though I've deleted enough stuf to give me roughly 5 MB of free space. I can't even receive new texts. I did a soft reset and it worked for a while before the "Memory Full" message popped up again. As for emails, they are read then purged from the phone (but kept on my pc). A lot of pictures have been moved to my microSD card. I'm now up to a little over 6 MB in free space, but the message still pops up.
How can I fix this and stop this annoying popup???
First I would get as many programs as you can to the SD card, I would also delete all the att bloatware, and get Total Comander and retweak all mail and texts to SD card.
Also this may be a simple fix, but after you deleted your messages did you go to the delted items folder and clear all deleted ?
delete your web browsing cache... I've heard that takes up a lot of storage.

I sure did. After it was emptied I got up to 6 MB of free space. I'll try your other suggestions one I get home tonight.

I did this also.
i got the same problem at the moment with the memory on my phone. it says its full but i dont know what to get rid of to clear it. ive deleted web browser cache and history, i have evan got rid of my emails which seems ****ing pointless of having this phone now. ive kept everything on my memory card so i am confused now of what to delete.
Ok so as we all know this is the folder that gives us the low on storage message when we get under 15mb of space left. But this folders data numbers are going crazy on me. For instance I moved a few bigger apps (like google earth and google plus) to the sd card and had about 20mb left, but after using the phone for 2 days straight I checked and only had about 1.5mb left. Now to lose 18mb to cache is kinda crazy but after restarting the phone the number jumped back up to about 16mb free. Seems this problem keeps happening to me in Ginerbread only and I am getting tired of keep getting that low on space message.
I dont think any one has found a fix for it other than using apps such as link2sd and notenoughspace. I use the link2sd app my self, it moves the apk, dalvik, and lib files to a sd card extension.
possible fix
You should check out jermaine151's Stock+ version 2.1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1260994. I can't personally vouch for it as he just released it and it's a little late to start reinstalling everything, but it looks promising.
So I got a bizarre notification today it says I am running out of room on internal storage? Specifically the root, not the SD, or external SD. I am not sure how that's possible or how to free up space. The only thing I can think of is I get lots of SMS/MMS and have 5 email accounts which are pretty active and lots of mail with attachments. Is this stuff stored on the root or SD card? Any other ideas on how to free up space would be greatly appreciated!
Not sure it makes a difference but I am running Blazer 4.0 with Gunslinger.
do you have a lot of apps if so consider moving them to sdcard you can also try to clear cache and data on some of your apps maybe the mail one since you said your email is pretty active other then that im not sure maybe somebody with more knowledge can help
Read this! http://bit.ly/AacW1j One thing that helped me to is that I had a recent Titanium backup (done automatically every night) and on applications that seemed to have 'lost' all my settings like Dolphin browser and Firefox, I simply restored that applicatons 'data' via Titanium. I litterally freed up 1.2 GB of space!!
