phone storage space is getting low

Is there some sort of memory leak issue that i'm not aware of? It seems my storage space on my phone is getting eaten up way too quickly. I got this notification on my phone this morning, so i deleted a couple apps (i only have about 25 installed) and got my internal storage down to about 380 mb out of 427. Then I set my phone down, and after not doing anything with it my phone now has 391 mb used up. And I know about deleting the cache but even after doing that my storage space doesnt get any better. any ideas?

The ROM is 1GB. Most of that is used for Android and stock programs.

Re: phone storage space is getting low

I am having the same issue with the memory. I started getting the warnings at the same time the phone started to freeze up on me. Couple times I had to take the battery out in order to get it back on.

When it works it's great but it's starting to do this more and more. It now even takes a little over a minute before it will find my contacts or send a text.

Re: phone storage space is getting low

I had Weather Widget installed and it took up waaaaay more space than a widget ought to. So I uninstalled it. Do you have any home screen plugins installed? Think back to what you installed and when the problem started and go from there.

Re: phone storage space is getting low

Mine actually started after doing the OTA update. I didn't do it right out of the box just because I was curious. On day two of ownership I decided to go a head and push the OTA update and that is when it began to act buggy. I didn't think the update would cause it to do this so I started to remove the last thing I installed and worked my way to stock over a 24hr period. I figured I would find out the cause but never did which is why I posted when I saw this.

Now I'm debating on going in to remove some of the junk that Sprint put on the phone or just take it in to the store to see what they say about it. I'm kind of curious what they will say.

I just hard reset the phone, and installed everything back on and am now having no issues with memory, so I dont think it has anything to do with the apps. I can across a thread here that has me thinking it has to do with HTC's mail client. so i'm trying to see if I start getting the same problem after using k-9 mail instead of the stock email client. I'll report back if I come across the same issues.

Re: phone storage space is getting low

Doesn't the phone install aftermarket apps in the SD card? I also use Advance Task Manager to kill most of my running task when the phone bogs down. I only leave clock, systray monitor(market app) running and I get 200mb of Free ram.
