TP2 Memory loss?

[Limen123]

New to the forums.
Um okay. I had a lot of space left on my phone, then when I tried sending a song to my friend, it didn't work, and all of a sudden, my phone keeps saying my phone memory is critically low. I don't know how to fix this. Can anyone help me? I can't receive any texts or anything anymore. I really need to fix this! D:

Have you tried a softreset (Softreset is a turning the phone off and than back on)?

What version OS are you running on your phone? is it stock or upgraded or a custom ROM?

Do you have a task manager installed and have it set to close programs when you hit the X Button?

Just some questions to help better.

Yeah I have. Doesn't work.

Windows Mobile 6.1. I have a custom tab bar thingy installed if that counts..

Yeah, I have Task Manager and everything is always closed.

How are you trying to send the file to your friend?

One other thing, its pretty common if you have a ton of e-mails and text's stored on your phone that it can cause a lot of problems with lag and freezing. How many text's and e-mails do you have stored on your phone?

I don't have any emails, but I have around 10 texts(the name of the people I text. Lots of messaging inside).
It's not really freezing and lagging I'm worried about. It's saying that I have no memory left when I actually have a ton left on my phone. =/

I was gonna send through MMS. I was trying to send a song, but it lagged and I tried again, then it popped up and said I couldn't send it, so I didn't try again, and ever since then my phone's been saying the critically low memory thing.

i just got a tp2 and coming from a q9c the memory leaks in this phone are terrible. id say unacceptable if i could have a better phone on my legacy sero plan i would. i have a ram cleaner installed that runs automatically every 3 hours and a reboot it once a day.

i run mighty rom which is much better than the stock rom, as it starts with about 10% more ram available. but sitll IMO unacceptable.

Is that MMS still stuck in the que to send? Make sure you completely delete that MMS message, make sure its not sitting in your out box and causing issues.

I am not sure if 6.1 has this but look in setting/system/uploader and make sure its not there too.

I've checked everywhere. It's not there. I've got it fixed though. I restarted it both ways a few times, then I just got a crapload of texts, so I'm guessing it's working now. Thanks for the help though!

I know the TP2 is notoriously bad for memory leaks. I lose a lot of memory, even after programs and other things are closed. Doesn't matter what it is, you always lose a portion of your memory and 100% is never cleared up. It just keeps stacking up. Now, the Q9M I was using, good gawd that thing had horrible memory management, not to mention piss low available memory to boot. What the hell were they even thinking when they designed those Q phones? 51MB to boot, but only 27MB is actually usable. I hated that phone just because of that. Can't run squat hardly on that thing without it slowing down and nearly running completely out of RAM. That thing was sooooooo slow. Pretty much it was good mainly for playing NES games on it.

Anyways, to the OP, glad you got your mem problems solved. BTW, don't try to send full MP3's through that. Use email instead. There is a limit of 1.2MB per message just so you know. That may be why it was getting hung up. Although it should have gave you a notice that the file was too big.
