tp2 memory issue
 

lately, i've been a warnin message sayin that a message cant be downloaded because my memory is too low, even after i deleted programs and files. i cant even open up the youtube player because it says its storage is full. are there any tips or programs anyone can share to help me out to free up some spaceht please?

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

under system settings/ memory it should give you storage memory and program memory (ram). what does that say? also, it will show you large files, you shouldn't have anything on the phone's memory but programs, and all programs settings should be to store to the storage card.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

install only critical apps to the phone. 99.9% of you games and add-on apps can be installed to and run from your storage card :)

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

I disagree. I install all apps to the phone, just keep games on the phone, and after fresh flash, I have about 165mb of free memory.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

also, OP, search for cleartemp and run that on your phone and it could free up quite a bit of room.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

i have 5.96 mb free...and i only have ringtones on my fone storage....

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

how many ringtones do you have???

ok, create a folder on your storage card called My Documents, then under My Documents create a folder called My Ringtones
Move all your ringtones from the My Documents/My Ringtones to Storage Card/My Documents/My Ringtones.
Do all this using the built in file explorer.
Your phone will still be able to see them, though you might have to set them again under sounds.

Holy wow... do you have an SD card? IDK what you've got on your phone, but that's insane to only have 6MB left... Move stuff to the SD card. Pics, music, documents, CABs, all that can be saved on your SD card. Even texts and emails can be set to save to the SD card.

Id be interested to know what exactly is filling up your phone...

EDIT* Just realized you said you only have ringtones... If that's true, that's a lot of ringtones... lol! What ROM are you using?

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

text messages and email attachments also eat up memory

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

cleartemp will take care of email attachments if you let it.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

im runnin the stock sprint 6.5 rom.....

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

how do u save texts to the card?

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

I have the same problem! I have the 6.5 stock rom and have no downloaded ringtones. My pictues, email attachments etc are pointed to my 8gb storage card. I used file manager to find large files and none were found on my phone. I have one game bubble breaker. I read thru this thread and I have tried all that, any more ideas or solutions?

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

Try SK Tools. It's a great collection of utilities. Among them there's a few cleaners and a utility that shows you how much space each directory takes up. Maybe you have thousands of small files in your temp and cache dirs, or maybe you have hidden files that File Explorer won't find.

Also first thing I do is go into Application Data and delete everything in Volatile folder.

Tp2 does leak tons of memory.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

Last time I checked my TP2 has not leaked any memory on me or in my pocket. Not sure what ROM you are using but Mine does not at all, Memory is super stable for me.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

When people talk about the TP2 memory leak, they are usually talking about the ram (program memory) leak. I've had a few instances on my TP1 and TP2 where the actual flash memory (regular storage) dropped really low and i couldn't figure out what was using it. In those situations, a simple hard reset did the trick.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

I have never had any memory leak at all on my TP2 Program related or OS releated at all, lol I know what a Memory leak is I was trying to be a little sarcastic.

Re: tp2 memory issue
 

Usually memory leaks are "caused" these days by programs cacheing to be able to restore faster. Soft resets will reset a lot of these. Also, ClearTemp works good at clearing cache's and temporary folders, too many email attachments, etc.
You shouldn't have to hard reset to get back ROM. I would try ClearTemp and see if that gets back your program memory. I had that problem once, where I ran out of program memory and it was related to email attachments being stored on the phone.

I've never seen the camera memory issue, but I don't use Sense so that might be the reason why. Might try turning Sense off if you are going to be taking a lot of pics. Might help.
