Not to get off topic, but what the heck. Is your name based off of the Crazy Eddy "prices are insane!!!!" lol.

I used to do stunts that my friends would never do, so they nick named me Crazy Eddie.

Yes, I always watch my space. I don't remember having this much space when I originally got my EVO last year. I'm wondering if part of the OS is installed on the SD card.

I should have known to perform a factory reset and install the apps from new. I never upgrade when switching to a new OS on my computers, so I should have done the same for my phone.

I've been using aCcleaner for awhile. I usually install apps, according to the best reviews or most stars. App Cache Cleaner, the app I use now, has several apps from the same developer, some of which I use and work really well.

I too was hoverin around 44-50mbs before GB...then once the update hit i went to 33MB which the storage warning sign came on...i already deleted some apps that i didn't use but i refuse to delete something i used..so i did some researched..found out that must of my mbs was coming from storage contact..so i did some more researched, backed up my contacts on my sd card..they already sync to google anyway...then i unsnyc facebook contacts...cleared storage contact..and bame!!!! 180mb free...i install my contact back from my sd card...sync facebook contacts back..and also sync google back...i was back where i started with my contacts but had 180mb free and I still have around 165mb and that was 3wks ago when i did that and before the other OTA that was rolled out...so that could help also...just my 2 cents!

I wish I would have found that info. Though the factory reset did help with some of my issues...
- I was barely able to connect to 4G in my own home
- Unable to connect to Wi-Fi
- Compass not working

After the factory reset and install, my issues were resolved, with the exception of the Compass. It's a bit flaky. When using a compass app, the needle moves quickly, when I turn and face a different direction.

I just did the above unsync and wipe and only ended up with 77mb free. The other thing is while I dont mind linking facebook I dont need 500 facebook friends in my phones contact list.
