How to clean up memory on the Diamond?

[al3azim]

well the device comes with only 90 MB when you first turn it one and out of that 90, 45 or so is already used by the system. So not sure how much more you are going to get. You are not goint get all 90 back. My Touch had more memory than this but it's a trade off for TF3D and the phone itself of course.

I deleted the Touch Guide files, which nicely freed up about 10MB. Problem is that they seem to have reinstalled themselves the next time I ran Activesync. There are hundreds of these damn guide files---all named by their section numbers--in the Windows folder now, and I can't delete.

Any way to get rid of these bloody files for good?

The change of Opera cache does free up 4mb, now the problem is how we can get rid of those pre-installed junkies while mainting the overall good-looking Sprint interface.

To me, SprintNav is useless, since I use igo for GPS. And other junkies should be installed in internal storage. The question is if we have a way to uninstall or delete those junkie after sprint customerization. I know we can skip the installation but we lose the interface.

my question is which programs can and can not run on the internal storage memory. these are the programs on my main memory:
1. diamond hologram
2. king sol solitaire
3. gyrator 2
4. instant messaging
5. pocketlock
6. rss hub
7. sprinttv
8. tcmp
10. telenav
11. window media player

i am curious which of these programs i can re-install on my internal storage memory and have it still work.

This might be a revelation or this may be stating the obvious, but yesterday I realized that text messages are being kept in main memory. I cleaned up my text history and regained 10M!!!! Any way besides reg edits to move text message logs to internal storage? It also looks like I have a 6meg file, probably garbage in Windows/messaging. Is this my email repository? Should I just delete the whole file and re download my emails? Cryptic filenames are a pain, who knows what this crap is?

What reg edit did you do to move the text messages to internal storage?

yes email attachments/data are stored in internal storage UNLESS u tell poutlook to save them on storage device.

go to messaging>menu>tools>options>storage tab> and click on "when available, use this storage card to store attachments".

that will move any attachments to the storage card, and in my case, saved me about 6 megs of ram

How do you tell what programs are using Storage vs Program memory?

[etski]

I didn't actually do a reg edit to move the text messages to internal storage, I just deleted mine and freed memory. I'm sure there is one. I think I read a thread with a regedit to move all email messages to internal storage, not just attachments. Since text messsages are in the windows/messaging folder, I suspect all messages, email and text and even picturemail are in storage memory. looks like this thread has the necessary regedit, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298646
I haven't actually done any reg edits yet, but now that I see this and just found this other post http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread...=most+complete I'm really tempted to try some!

So what if we've been installing everything into "Device" and we now want to move it to internal storage to save some of this precious memory? I have no idea how to navigate and move those things over.......anyone? I just installed to device because that's what I thought I was supposed to do. :-/
