Hi there,
I have a HTC Desire, and its telling me I have low space, so I have deleted everything that I can, including old messages..
Now I am trying to get into my gallery to delete photos/videos and it comes up saying:
Your phone is low on storage space. Please free some space before using this application
I also tried accessing the gallery through camera, and it tells me the same thing
Removed battery for ten seconds then restarted no help
I dont understand what I can do next.
When I restart the phone (which I have like 10 times), it comes up saying it cant identify my time zone... The phone has not been dropped and is in a very protected case
Can someone please help me? Its my partners phone I have borrowed and I'm scared I have broken it!!!
thanks in advance

Hello there welcome to xda
What you are getting is the biggest problem the HTC desire has is very little install space, Your better of rooting your phone and installing starburst ROM witch will give you 2GB internal memory.
If you dont want to root try install Quick App cache, this wil remove alot of unwanted data.
Read into Rooting
Always backup
Install custom rom

Yes you do need root for it to clean everything for you, but you can clean each app one at a time with out root theres a good chance that you'll have your browser or another app using alot of MB without you even knowing about it. DONT DELETE APP DATA UNLESS YOU WANT TO.
I think I will wait for my partner to have a go with it, so I dont mess it up!
Do you that that will fix it?
Could you post your system info? you'll find it in settings, about phone, software information.
Or you could look here your self
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
Its so you can download the stock rom you have now, just incase you ever need to go back to stock. this is only if your think about rooting.

To tell you the Truth, it will free some space but you will be back wanting to free up space again and again
Thats why its best to Root your phone, dont just rush into it have a very good read on this site even watch youtube lots of video's on there showing you have to do it.
Once you feel you know what your doing you'll be fine Always remember to Backup, download your Stock ROM from shipped roms. then pick a custom from from the dev part of this site

Download this and keep it saved to your PC, its just for future incase you ever need it
If you ever root your phone and you end up not wanting root you can install this and it will make your phone back to stock unrooted.
Running out of memory is the main reason why I rooted and S-Offed my Desire.
If you have done those, there are plenty options of solving the running out of memory problem.
A2SD+, A2SD + custom NAND partition, Data2Ext, etc.
Beside those you will be also get these as bonuses:
1. Faster and smoother Desire
2. Longer battery life
3. Various UI from various ROMs (Sense, New-Sense, Plain, MIUI, etc.)
4. DSP manager witch doesn't come with the stock ROM
5. Overclock, underclock, under voltage, etc. settings
6. UOT skins
7. Adblock to block unwanted ads
8. Flashing addiction
etc.
OK...you have got your original signed ROM just in case you need it in the future.
Now it is time to root.
Download Android H-Boot driver for your PC and Unrevoked software.
Learn how to root and flash ROMs (no S-Off first nor Nand partition modification, learn more and do those later)
What is it that is eating up my memory...?
I'm NOT asking for more memory for installing apps - I just want to get the same amount of free memory back that I got after a fresh factoryreset and reinstalling and using all programs the first time...
I'm running stock HTC 2.3.3.
Just four days ago I reset my phone and installed 29 apps ran all of them so that they were all ready to use exg Google goggles isn't ready to use before you have answered a few questions...
And I had 29,19 Mb left!!! Brilliant!!! :-D
Today I had to remove a 3,28 MB program because I were below 15 mb and at this moment there is only 16,29 Mb left.
All programs that I can move to sd is moved, all cache is cleared using "1 tap cleaner" (is the a better app for this...)
Why is it that I have lost 13 mb???
Please help because I really would like to find the cause of this...
Installed apps:
1 tap cleaner free
Adobe flash 10.3
Angry birds
Bubble
cardiotrainer
chrome to phone
convert - unit converter
documents to go
dropbox
es file explorer
facebook for android
gmail
goggles
google sky map
handcent sms
flashlight
maps
my perfect egg timer
my tracks
notes (htc widget)
rockplayer lite
shazam
smooth calender
tv2 nyhederne (danish news station app)
Tv2 superliga (dansih football)
tv guide
valg2011
Dmi (danish weather)
youtube
(By the way right after the reset before I installed any apps it said 125 Mb free memory for install)
Well, space is eaten by apps' data (not only cache), crash logs et cetera. For example, when i first install DEX (Romanian dictionary app) it "eats" some 1.26 MB after being moved to SD. When i first run it, it creates another ~5MB of data. If you remove said data, it will just be created again on next run, so don't try that as it's useless.
Yes I know that programs "creates" more mb but that was also what I tried to write when I said that all programs were running one time when I still had 29 mb left...?
So what is it then...?
Got this after i flashed acs ics v4 on acs icsv 3.5. I cleaned cache and dalvik before i flashed v4. and now i have a pop up saying internal memory low.
clicking on that shows 485 mb used and 0 left.
also i cant access almost any apps since market force closes and i cant even install astro to access system folders.
tried moving apps to sd card but that fails also and my go launcher crashes and reboots.
How do i fix this?
Also just noticed.. power menu has POWER OFF only?????
no one????????????????????

Have you tried moving some apps to the SD card?

Tried all that nothing worked.wiped everything and r installed v3.5

By chance how many apps have you installed aside from the ones inlcuded in the rom? If a lot you may want to uninstall whatever you can then use root explorer to delete unneccessary apps from "system/app". You also may have had a bad flash....like something may be corrupt. Try to reflash if nothing else works. ACS v4 works fine for me

Use Titanium Backup to move a lot of apps to your SD card. Just don't move system apps or widgets.

I know this thread pertains to your issue, but just an FYI--this is the forum for the original Epic 4G... not the Touch version.
The only way around this issue that I've found was a factory reset or getting annoyed and starting over with either a new or the same ROM. Sucks, but that's been the only solution I've found for this issue.
OK I have a Virgin Mobile USA Wildifire S. I have it s-off and rooted. Now what files can I delete so my phone can run safely so I can free up space? I removed most of the bloatware but I still don't have enough space.
Why is my contact storage taking up over 20mb. I don't have that many contacts and FB is set to only sync with my current contacts in the phone.
For some reason I'm constantly getting force closes for just about everything when I open it the first time. I tried fixing the permissions but after that nothing will run everything forces closes all the time.
Can anybody help me with these problems?

What did you remove? List them?
Does your contacts have photos?
In ClockWorkMod did you clear the partition cache and dalvik cache after removing the apks??

I can't remember everything I removed. But it was all that dumb software like games and stuff that come with the phone.
My contacts have photos but on my old phone the storage was never above 5mb and I had more contacts on that phone.
No but I will try that.
I did download an experimental ROM....... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367701] ...........this worked great until I noticed my mms wasn't working so I made a backup of that until the problem could be fixed.
So I reverted back to where I had these problems listed above and I will now try your third recommendation.
Anybody know what to do to fix mms issues?
try backing your contacts onto your Google account........I had the same problem with the contacts storage.....backed my phone contacts to the Google account and voila!!!!it took only 3 MB

inconsistency in battery usage stats
Guys, I came across this bug on my wfs-
the battery usage statistics of my phone (settings>about phone>battery>battery use>) "d h m s on battery" gets reset when i restart the phone.
Pls test this on your phone. I noticed the issue after 2.3.5 upgrade:
1. fully charge your phone (required).
2. wait for 5-10 minutes and check the battery stats.
3. uncheck Fast Boot from Settings>Power (required).
4. turn off the phone and switch it on again.
5. check the battery stats -" d h m s on battery" again.
Does it retain its value from step 2. or is it reset?
Once the battery level comes down to 88-85%, it functions normally and the stats persists after a restart (shows same data as in step 2).
I did factory reset but its not resolved.
Can anyone tell me whether its a hardware issue or OS related?
Mine is virgin WFS updated to 2.3.5 via FOTA.
I would imagine that It's connected to changing the fastboot option. But I can't replicate right now.

Any skins you don't use would be high on the list of things to axe. they suck up over a meg a piece.
also, if you haven't already, forcing apps to the SD will free space nicely.
in a terminal emulator do this (case sensitive)
su
pm setInstallLocation 2
now semi-everything will be movable to SD.
What I need to ask is, does it happen right after you check fastboot, or do you have to reboot to get the reset.
Sent from my HTC_A510c using Tapatalk
Just the reboot resets the stats.
Chk the screenshot, the graph starts from 90% cos I rebooted at that point.

Lol too late xc
I was looking at this one,
We needed a bunch of phones to run Google Authenticator on (so nothing fancy), but for normal use 256MB of RAM is not much.
I come across the HTC Explorer, which has 512MB, better screen and is around 130eur.
try uninstalling unwanted apps on the system like email,maps, etc. But be careful of what you uninstall! This may lead to boot loop. And bricking you're phone. Try reading google docs. You can uninstall it using Titanium Backup.
If you're memory too low, try partitioning you're sd card.
I just partitioned my sdcard, and used link2sd.
I'm on a stock rom btw, but fully rooted.
After setting it up, it worked fine. No conflicts on start up and the second partition mounted fine.
Only thing that was weird, is after linking all apps to card, there was a mount error, and in log on /data for link2sd, it said phone or resources busy.
Reboot again, and it's fine. I tried it, and booted several times now with no more problems. It's just the one mount error. Perhaps a slight bug but it's fine now.
I partitioned my card with the cwm zip skin done, in developer section (madteamgalaxyY.zip works too)
So give link2sd a try.
I've close to 100 applications installed, and i've still got almost 159mb space on internal memory.
I also removed all the bloat from the rom too, that I didn't want.
So if you're rooted, or know what you're doing, then I'd advise you on the above.
If your not root savvy, then look it up, google it, and research, so you know what you're doing lolz.
I know a lot now, but I'm still only a rookie, and no developer by any standards. Just a user who's more savvy, and not too scared to mess up.
Good luck, and hope that helps.
If your not rooted, just search the forums here for the update.zip. to root it via stock recovery if you're comfortable with rooting, and only if you know what you're doing ;-)
As if you mess up, it's on your own head lolz. I'm just giving advice, based on what I did, to solve the space issue on our galaxy y.
Good luck anyways ;-)

Yup, like I said. But if you wish to partition your card by computer, then google and forum search is your friend ;-)
But personally, using the cwm zip, on the developer forum section does the job fine. Just search for it ;-)

This list shows which ones are safe and which ones are not. I used this list. I can't remember who posted this list here originally, but I remember bookmarking it. (Apologies to original poster, if I haven't credited you, but I can't remember who you are)
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...=0Ag43oj7rLQP4dENZcmhGN0ZUa3pHSENVeXlqUm5vV0E
That should get you on your way.
And finally if you want my advice, please read FAQ's in the link2sd app menu, in about section and visit the developers site, as there is a lot of information that will help you further, and will help educate you on things you may not be sure on. It helped me, a lot.
I didn't ask questions, when I was learning new tricks, I just educated myself by searching here and via google, as some people moan if you ask before searching, but I don't mind telling if I know or remember lolz.
Anyways, good luck.

How come your galaxy y has only 160 MB as internal memory? mine has 190 MB.
Another thing
Another thing I noticed is that it keeps telling me my internal memory is low even when the installed apps probably occupy only about 35 MB.

Might I suggest, sadly, the last two options:
Completely delete the entire SD card. If that doesn't work, format your phone. If you're rooted, backup any NECESSARY data, (no options, settings or anything like that, just in case it's related to the settings, but you can make a back up, just don't restore), and then reset device to factory default and see if that eliminates the issue.
Wait, are you rooted? On stock Android Galaxy Note 2? Or do you have any special changes done to your phone?

Are you on CM10?
I believe that this is a bug that has been hitting Samsung phones. It's either, a) a fault in the MMC chip, or b) a CM10 bug. I've had that happen 3 times to me, the 1st time I had no backups and lost over 10GB of media from my External SD Card. The other 2 times I was prevented and lost everything but had a backup. So protip : backup each time you have something new on your phone. Better safe than sorry.
Now, download this program and run it. It'll recover almost all the deleted photos from your SD : http://www.piriform.com/recuva

Are you on CM10?

Hi, I dont know if I have CM10 :S .. i only know that I have anything as brand new (stock rom).
I found a solution but it`s not 100% working.
I downloaded Fish bowl gallery and go in setting>advanced>find missing photos> and than I select the maps where the photos are but are not shown in the stock gallery.
I waited till photos are added and now i have 100 photos (of 117 total) added in my stock gallery (but i still does not have other 17 photos)
Thank you
You should return your phone. If your pictures aren't showing up even after flashing an official rom then something is wrong.

Hi,
I'm using a SGS3 (no root, no custom rom) but got the same problem! I think it's a jelly bean problem..
